HONEST l[ONEYIN ONO

Ii is the opinion of General Ewing that the
contest i'm Ohio will turn upon the money
question, az the one of paramount interest and
Importance. Therein be shows himself more
s3gaciOus than those Democratic leaders who
have songlt to make the Presidential cam
paign turn upon "the Fraud question on
one hand, or upon Troops at the polls" and
Free Fraud on the other. Precisely that
element in the Democratic party which The
TRIBUNE long ago predicted would prevail
has dictated the nomination OF General Ewing,
and now prOclalms through him its deter
mination to force the party TO accept its views
and its leadership. Nor is the boast an idle
one. Throughout the Western States, the
party unquestionably sympathizes with the
element which General Ewing represents. In
PENNSYLVANIA, that element is so strong that
neither Mr.. Randall nor Mr.. Wallace dares to
resist it, and the Speaker has amazed and dis
ousted his hard-mOney friends by open and
zaalous co0perati0n with the extreme infla-
tioDists Even in Eastern States, the same ele-
mcnt has considerable strength in the Demo
cratic marty. Meanwhile the Solid South, nat
urallv inclined toward initiation and Tepudia-
ton. has OF late been convinced by the mani
especially by the triumph of General Ewing
in the Ohio Convention, that Dir. Thurman
was wrong in the notion that the new issues
raised by the extra session would strengthen
and save the Democratic party at the North,
and has apparently concluded to sit down
upon Mr.. Thurman and his reyOlutiOnists
owing free field to General Ewing and his
regulators. Thus three cOrnered duel comes
off in Ohio, in which General Ewing has all
the advantages of position, and if he should
succeed in the campaign 1t would be likely
10 make him the Democratic candidate for
the Presidency
General Ewing and his friends have reason
TO congratulate themselves upon their posi-
ton. OF the three factions, bis is the only
one that promises TO the Democratic party any
accession of strength, and the only one that
is inspired by any sincere and strong convic-
ton. Mr. Tiden represents a conspiracy Of
spoils-hunters, who have no beliefs worth
mentioning, who are ready to sell any opinions
they ever had or pretended to have for the
snoils of power, and who shout Fraud"
while trying to carry elections by fraud. Mr..
Thurman represents another conspiracy OF
spolls-men, who have bartered of what few
convictions they had as to the currency or the
nublic credit for the favor of Western re-
indicators. But, finding that their sincerity
was distrusted by tho extremists. this set of
demagogues has attempted to capture the

4 BLUNDERlNG PIECE or SOCLfLISN.
A bill has just been vetoed by Governor
Cullonl, in Illinois, which, we should hope, in
dcates the high-water mark Of senseless So
cialistic legislation in this country. 1t was
called an Act to protect laborers, miners,
"mechanics and merchants" but the Western
common sense rejected this euphemism, and
the measure was always referred to as the
Truck Bill" Its intent and purpose was,
briefly stated, to make il an offence, punisha
bic by fine of 800, for any person, firm or
corporation to sell anything to an employee,
and take the pay out of his wages OF course
there was the usual pretence that this meas
ure was meant for the protection of the labor
ing man from outrage or imposition, and so
there was a prOyIso that he might, before or
at the time Of his hiring, enter into contract
with his employer to take certain articles of
merchandise in lieu of cash wages, but the
"kind price and amount thereof must he
specifically described in such contract" be-
forchand. That is to say, before hiring "A laborer
YOU may enter into written agreement to
sell him pound of coffee a week at 10 cents
a pound, but if after you have engaged him
he changes his mind and wants n pound of
tea occasionally at 70 cents, he must go
to some other shop for 1t, or you subject
yourself to arrest for furnishing it to him.
The provso, therefore, afforded no relief
whatever to the substance of the bill The
naked prohibition alone was effective. 1t
was intended to prohibit all employers of labor
whatever from selling goods to the men they
employed. upon the security of their wages.
1t was one of those mischIeyous aud foolish

narrow-mnded and INSCRIPTIONS politicians
to gain votes among the working classes,

II is a characteristic return which TamH1Hly
makes for the fairness of the Republican
LEGISLATURE That body passed an AppOrtion-
ment bill which was so liberal that the
minority gladly accepted it, Under that bill
this city was awarded twentyfour Assembly
men, of which the Republicans would be
entitled to at least eight on fair
division. The utmost they dared to ask
for was fye the utmost which Iammany
at first proposed to give was two, but it Is
now believed that four districts will be CON
ceded. Anti-Tammany, however, not to be
behind Tammany, is in a great temper be-
cause the Republicans are to have any MEM
bers at all The members of one of the viz
tuous Anti-Tammany organizations declare,
by resolution, that " the County Of New-Hork
"is now and at all times Overwhelmingly
" Democratic, and any other than Dem
" ocratic representation from said county
"wOuld be Misrepresentation thereof" in
another resolution they denOunce Tammany
for taking action which will diminish the
Democratic representation from this county
" for wears to cOme.' The allowance by Tam
many of only four Republican districts, if in
deed so many are allowed, is one phase of
Democratic fairness the grumbling of Anti
Tammany, because Tammany is likely to
allow so many, is another Together they are
instructive.

Mr.. Hill furnished a good illustration of
Democratic consistency yesterday in the SEN
ate debate upon the Judicial Appropriation
bill. He first admitted that the intent of the
present Jury law was good, declaring that if
it were honestly administered there would be
no need of a change; and then admitted also
that the bill under consideration was "obiec-
tionable," believing that it was necessary,
however, to stop practice more1 obieetiona-

There was plenty of news from the other side
Yesterday of character interesting to the patriotic
American mind. There was the intelligence that
the Rev. Mr.. Talmage has preached to an
enormous congregation in London, and, by
his appearance, had created an unusual eX-
citement in Presbyterian circles. Then, i'll quite
contrary direction there was the news OF the
aquatic victory of Hanlan, the American champion,
in whose triumphs we have a continental if not u
national interest. Then. again, we had reports of
the long distance champion walking match, in
which Ennis, of Chicago, and Weston, OF New
York. are competing # is evident that
we have before us an era of international
muscular competitiOn-a kind of warfare pleasing
TO the benevolent mind, and much more agreeable
and less expensive than the shock of con-
tending armies or the collision of hos
tile fleets. In tho od-fashioned battles,-
whether our country won or lost, our tax
payers were obliged 10 pay the bills; but
now when our horses or our athletes carry of the
PALM it doesn't cost the Treasury penny. and we
can hoist our flags aud throw up our
hats. without the drawback that there has
been big addition to the National debt.

say so, to have the inside track.
The Baccalaureate Sermons, of which so many
were preached before the different colleges last
Sunday remind us of fact which the timid are apt
TO forget II has been thought, not hastily, but
deliberately that science with its manifold modern
advances Is driving religion out of the heart and
mind of society, and especially of cultivated
society If this be true il is well to know it, IL is
certainly significant that there is not important
institution Of learning In this country which does
not formally recognize the fundamental doctrines
Of Christianity. To these universities and colleges
science does not offer demonstrated truth, un-
doubted discovery, which is not Hospitality wei
coined. There Is no attempt at suppression. There
is no refusal TO recognize any established law. At
the same time, there is surrender of any article
Of faith. Belief upon minor points may change its
phase form, OF, as TO matters not vital, may be
wholly abandoned but all that is essential is still
adhered to. The natural has power over the
supernatural; these do not meet upon equal terms

Tie counsel for the Bar Association began
their trial of sheriff Reilly yesterday with some
strange testimony. 1t remains TO be seen
whether the evidence given yesterday by a
former inmate of Ludlow Street Jail can he
sustained. If it should be. the case of Sheriff
Reilly will be very promptly settled, III all
probability, by Governor Robinson. 1t must
appear hereafter, however. whether the wit
ness is entirely credible, and Sheriff Reilly
must be allowed to produce his witnesses be-

New-York has been keeping, officially, dis

Writing last month of the Han'an-Elliott

takes an intelligent interest in athletic
sports, observed that the result OF
the race and the time OF the WIN

easy victory which Hanlan won yester-
day seems to leave no doubt as to
the advantages of the American method
over the old-iashoned style. Not only
did Hanlan' beat easily William Elliott,
who had twice won the championship OF
England, but he improved on his speed
i'm the Hawdon match and made faster
time than has been achieved in any pre-
vious championship race. Elliott tried the
long slide and swivel row-locls, but at times
he reverted to the old method, and thus lost any
advantages he might have had from adopting
either uniformly. 1t will be interesting to
note how far, after this trial, English oars
men are satisfied that the old style must be
discarded.

would then probably sign the bill. The
wise counsels of Mr.. Thurman, Mr.. Herman

hope of avoiding another veto, were of no

While in New-York State there are so many
places to be filled this Fall that it's bare
possibility the parties may run out OF candi-
dates, over in Pennsylvania there is actually
but one official Of any sort to be elected IN
the whole State. Through one of those Slips
which the most careful of Constitution makers
Will commit, an election must be held TO
choose a single official; but the two parties
are wisely disposed to make the campaign
with as small an expenditure of energy as
possible. Philadelphia letter, printed on
another page, discusses the probable candl-
dates, and shows that Republican victory Is
already universally conceded.
We have heard the English view OF the
visit of the Coincide Francmse to LONDON !;
now we hear, through the letter OF IariS
correspondent, the French view. 1t Is lar
from being good -humored. The average pro-
yincial Deputy feels aggricved that the one
company of actors which enjoys Government
aid should cross the Channel to shSd TIE iniiu
ences of its congregated genius and skill upon
the stolid Briton instead of dlliuslng thehi
through the chief cities of France itself, which
DAYS the subsidy and is entitled to ITS fruits.
This at least is the reasoning OF the IaliH-
meptary mind. There is also contained III our
CORRESPONDENTS letter some curious gossip re-
specting the extraordinary actress who man
ages to keep the newspapers OF two heml-
spheres busy with the record OF her achieve
