A man named Mccoy from Black Dog with
load of ardent on board, was making himself
public nuisance around the private boarding
houses on Fourth street yesterday. He wound up
his turn at Mrs. Casey's, corner of Fourth and
Minnesota, or rather had it effectuallv
stopped by young John Casey. Mccoy entered
the house and strnck Mrs. Casey, she called out
to her son John, and he responded by giving
McCoy q wholesome taste of the muscular.
Officers Cook and Hanft finished the work by
taking Mccoy to the lookup.
A young Won an, accompanied by three
Others, drove up to police headquarters yester-
day afternoon burdened with complaint. First
she introduced herself as Miss Hannah Sulii-
van, of Hudson, Wis. Then she said she had
been accompanied to this city by Miss Mollie
aennessey: Mollie had no money to pay her
fare, and she, Hannah, had betrayed the costs
OF the journey, taking Mollie's trunk as Sc
eurlty. When they got here, en- route to St.
vincent, they obtained lodgings at the Ameri-
can house. Sunday MolIie left for St, Vincent
and Hannah proposed following TODAY (yester.
day?. but the landlord wouldn't Surrender
Moilie's trunk. And that's what the mater
with Hannah. She was told to persnade the
landlord, and if that failed her to return for
more advice. As she didn't return it il pre-
sumable that persuasion prevailed.

G~arcelon is a tall, spare, sober-look-

of Lewiston, where he now resides.
After graduating at Bowdoin Col
lege in 1886 he studied for the med
ical profession at the Ohio Medical
College, where he completed his pre-
paratory studies in 1889. To his
profession the best labors of his life
have been devoted, and in it he has
attained the highest standing. He
has been President of the Maine
Medical Society, of which he was
one of the founders, and during the
war he held the position of Surgeon
General. He was cne of the origina
Republicans, but left the party a

Senator LORDS Bill to provide
subjects for medical colleges and TO
punish body-sr atching, permits the
superintendent of all hospitals, in
firmaries, warehouses and other in
situations supported at the public ex-
pense, to deliver to the order of med
ical colleges the body of any person
who may die in the institution from
any diseases not infectious. The
bodies of strangers and travellers are,
however, exempt from this order,
and the delivery of the bodies of in
mates to colleges is forbidden when
objected to by the inmate himself
before death, or by his relatives after
his death. This seems a little hard
upon paupers, to have the fact that
they are to be dissected after death
surely staring them square in the
face during the last moments of a
not o%verjoyous life.

THE DEMOCRATIC r

To the student Of political history
nothing can be more replete with in
terest than the sturdy growth of the
Democratic party for the past ten
years. When it came out of the
Presidential contest of 1875, its clear
popular majority was over 100000.
Out of more than 2,550,000 votes in
the Southern States. it had a major
ity of 49,. 900. In the New England
STATE the Republicans had a major
ity of g. 1000 out of 66S 600 votes,
the major part of this majority COM
ing from the two small States of Yer
mont and Maine, while Massachu
sets, a former citadel of Republican
strength, had become disputed
ground. Connecticut is g~loriously
redeemed. In the three States of
New York, New Jersey and Pennsyl-
%vania, the Republicans had a major
ity of nearly n million votes out of
something over two millions. In the
six great States of New York, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana,
and Illinois, containing nearly one
half the population of the United
States and more than half the wealth
and business enterprise Of the whole
country, the aggregate vote sho IS q
large majority for the Democrats
In the four North-w estern States Of
Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota and Wis
consin, Mr.. Hayes had $4,000 out
of $50, 600. In the four States of the
far west, Nebraska, Nevada, Colora
do and Kansas, Mr.. Hayes had 1873,
600 votes out of 100000. In the
two Pacific States, California an6
Oregon, he received a little over 80,
900 out of about $4,000 votes. o
the nine great cities of New York
Boston,, Cincinnati, Chicago, St
Louis, Baltimore, Philadelphia
Brooklyn, and San Francisco, TIL
two latter alone gave a majority TO
Hayes. In short the Democracy ha'
been steadily and irresistably grow
ing since Grants Inauguration il
1860. Then it had a majority o
less than one-third of both branche
of Congress, to-day it hasthe Hous
and will have the Senate on the At
! of next March.

The opposition to the Army Bill
in Congress is said to be increasing
daily. 1t is noticeable, however, that
this opposition in a large degree is
directed to the extraordinary power
which the bill vests in the command,
ing General. The men who are pro.
nounced against this feature are the
strongest men in the Senate and
House. They assert that unconsti-
tutional power is conferred upon the
commanding General, and that il
would be exceedingly dangerous to
intrust such power to any man, much
less such a man as Gen. Sherman.
The bill, however, will be pressed
with vigor in both Houses, but the
understanding is that radical amend
ments will be made in the House,
both as respects the power of the
commanding General, as well as the
provisions relating to the manufac-
ture of ordinance and the abandon,
ment of our a~rsenals.

An effort will be made during
the coming session of the Indiana
legislature to procure the abolition
of the death penalty, and interest
will be added to the subject by the
strangling of three men on January
Goth 1879, directly under the win
dows of the legislative halls. BY q
new law in Georgia, murder is to be
punished by death unless the jury in
its discretion extend that clemency
where the conviction has been found
solely on circumstantial evidence.

To THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF tn

To THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE
STATE OF ONO:
Thinking persons admit that the
future of our country depends upon
the perfection of our system of pop
ular instruction.
Free school organization is as firm
ly fixed in the popular heart, as the
right of suffrage, or any other vital
part of our form of government, and
our future is to be what our free
school system makes it.
1t is our highest duty as citizens
to render this system as efficient as
possible, so that it may open its
schoo.-room doors within reach OF
every child; that the instruction
given may be such as to make to the
State return ofyouthful citizens with
pure hearts, clear heads and sound
bodies; and that the remote
from other educating influences g
community may be, the more imper'
alive is this duty.
Every one placed in a position tc
observe, has noticed the great differ.
ence in quantity and quality of the
work done in tie ungraded schools
of the rural districts, and in the
graded schools of the cities and villa
ges; that the opportunities of resi-.
dents of the country for securing fol
their children the advantages of g
good education, are not nearly sc
good as they should be in considera.
ton Of the money spent for the sup
port of their schools.
In cur judgment, their inefficiency
is almost wholly due to the want Of
COMPETENT SUPERVISION and intelli'
gent direction in the instruction O.
youth, the expenditure of schoo'
funds, in the organization of schoo'
districts, and apportionment o.
youth; and these same defects cause
a useless expenditure of money.
In the township districts, with
some worthy exceptions, there is q
defective course of instruction. Nc
records are kept to aid the NEW teach
err to begin where the old one, a few
months ago, left off. The teacher
has pretty full assurance that his
work will never pass in review be-
fore any Que having authority to pass
Judgment upon it, and that his flu
ture employment will, in nc great
measure, depend upon his real sue
cess, and he is thus left without a
healthy stimulus, which, in other
more strictly business matters, the
sound sense OF the people does not
fail to apply.
1t is believed that a ~judicious sys-
tenn of county supervision can be es-
tahlished, which shall not only add
greatly to the efficiency of tie
schools, but that this may be done
without adding to the present cost
of our schools. This should he the
result of a better economy in disburs-
ing funds, collecting statistics, con
Quoting Institutes AID examining
teachers.
County supervision is no expert
ment. 1t is part of the school econo-
my of about thirty States of our
Union. AS the Hon. Newton Bate
man testifies. at is the right arm
of the service" Therefore
We, the undersigned, citizens of
the State of Ohio, do respectfully
petition the Honorable General As
scmbIv of the State of Ohio, for the

Resumption on the basis which
Sherman has been forced to adopt,
is not the resumption which the gold
ring proposed a few months since
it is simply an adoption ofthe Green
back doctrine that the Government
should cease d~iserediting its own
currency. With this policy and the
~legalizing, and unlimited coinage of
silver, resumption might as well have
been accomplished in 1873 as now
the country might have been saved

honest business men from hopeless
and irretrievablc financial ruin.-IO-

Two or three bills have already
been introduced into the Ohio Gen
eral Assembly. looking To the reduc
ton Of the salaries of our County Of
f~icials, and we hope ore of them will
become a law. There is no good
reason why the Auditor and Trea-
surer of our county should be almost
able to retire on a compete-.c y for
life, after serving two terms in these
positions, which a mistaken and very
foolish party usage sees proper to
give them. Either one of them can
stand almost half a reduction of their
salaries, because they are costing
the taxpayers more than the inter
e%sts'of the public require. There is
also another very important object
which may be accomplished by the
reduction of the salaries of these of
fees. The places are so lucrative
that at every election means and
measures are resorted to in order to
obtain them, which neither honesty,
law or good morals Justify. In fact.
our political campaigns are coming
to be regarded only as seasons ofde.
bauchery, matchmaking, corruption
and extravaganza. Make these va.
rious positions to pay only a fail
compensation, graded by what the
same talents and like responsibility
employed in any other legitimate bu
siness would receive, and we make
a long stride toward the removal o
the evils and abuses which grow ou'
of our political campaigns, .ant
which are a disgrace and a burning

1879 has dawned upon England
almost as gloomily as 1874 did upon
the United States. Bankruptcies
and strikes abound everywhere.
Some of the employing manufacture
ers at one moment lament that their
markets are over-stocked, and at the
next moment call on their employers
to increase the number of hours OF
labor, as if the great need of the day
where heavier production. Nothing
more wildly betokens the deluge OF
distress to trade and labor and life,
now impending in Great Britain.
than the wildly contradictory propo
sitions for ~remedying all evils and
dangers. But men often care little
for logical consistency in their strug
gle to shove their own share of the
blame and the burden of industrial
distress on the shoulders of Their
neighbors. They r quick to invite
anybody but themselves 10 make up
losses by extra sufferings and sacri.
fees. This country can speak with
experience in the matter it passed

stage of industrial misery which
