Extraordinary Inducements Of
fered.
The Wing and Chronicle
in Reach Of Every
body.
Fourteen Months for the
Price Of One Year.

From now until November, 1880. will be
enc Of the most exciting periods in the
political history of this Republic. On the
18th day of next month, the people of
Ohio will elect q Governor and other State
officers. Heretofore, parties nave been
very evenly divided there, which, together
with the important influence which the re-
suit is to have upon the great Presidential
contest of next year, gives the contest a
national interest, and its decision will be
regarded with deep concern in every nook
and corner Of the Union. Two strong
tickets are in the field, and the battle is be-
ing waged with q vigor which shows that
each party fully appreciates the prize for
which they are striving.
In November, the great State of New
York will elect a Governor, State
officers and a Legislature. This
too is a contest Of the highest National i'm
portance. The Democrats fer several
years haYe been in the ~ascendancy there,
but they are now disturbed by internal
~dissensions, which, together with the dis
advantage at which they are placed by
being held responsible for the policy inau-
gurated by their leaders in Congress, gives
the Republicans great encouragement.
This, together with q thorough conviction
of the righteousness of their cause, in
spires them with courage and confidence,
and they are determined to contest every
every inch of the ground with that r~esolute
purpose which animates true and tried
| soldiers fighting for the dearest and most
| cherished principles. The result in that
| State will be looked to all over the Nation
with an interest never before felt in a State
| election. The giants of both political par
ties, all over the Nation, will take part in
the contest and the issues involved will
! be ably and thoroughly discussed.

THE ELECTTO Ms.

The Nouemb9r elections have res
suited everywhere, except in the
State of New York and the Solid
South in a grand overwhelming
victory for the Republicans. In
New York we have elected a Gov
ernor by a large plurality, and have
both branches of the Legislature by
a good working majority. This is
a grand result, and one at which
Republicans feel gratifed. We
had hoped, however, that the Re
publican majority in that State
would be large enough to conclu-
sively settle the next Presidential
election. It is not so, however, and
the consequence is, q hard fight
next year. Of this contest,
and the elements entering into
it, we will have more to say
hereafter. In electing their Cover
nor the Republicans have gained a
great deal, and now have the assur-
ance, that if they carry the cleo
toral ticket next year, it will be hon:
estly certified to by the Chief Ex.
~ecutive. It is a great victory, but
not yet complete.
In New Jersey and Connecticut
gains were made in the Legislature,
which are important chiefly, from
the fact that the Senators-elec hold
over and participate in the election
of a United States Senator next
year. In Pennsylvania, the contest
was one of no National Importance,
except as it goes to show that the
gallant old Keystone State may
yet be relied upon for old-fashioned
Republican majorities.
In Wisconsin, Nebraska, Mime
sofa, and other Western States, the
Republicans have made uniform
gains, showing that in this growing,
thrifty section a sound political SEN
timent prevails. It is a good 10
cality for Republicanism to thrive
in, and after the next census will
exercise a powerful influence in the
control of the Government. Al,
together, the Republicans have
cause for universal rejoicing over
Tuesdays results.

A GOOD deal of complaint has
been made of Governor Blackburn,
of Kentucky, recently, because he
has pardoned SO large a number of
conVicts out of the ~penitentiary.
He has been interviewed on the sub
ject by a Comrier-J Journal reporter,
to whom he made the statement
that he expected to pardon children
when sent to that institution. In
his remarks in the Methodist
Church, of this city, last Sunday
night, Judge Ferriss made the
statement that mere children had,
in some instances, been sent to the
penitentiary Of our own State. We
presume there are boys and girls
confined in penitentiaries and jaiis
in other States.
IF Governor Blackburn has par
doned children out of the peniten-
tiary he has done right. It is a
disgrace to our humanity to keep
children in confinement in such an
institution. Every State ought to
have a House Of Correction, in
which boys and girls who are guilty
of crime may be confined, and
where an honest effort may be
made to elevate and reform
them, instead of subjecting them
to summary degradation. IF only
one out of twenty of them is saved,
it is worth all the outlay to run a
House of Correction. But if the
House of Correction is not estab>
lished, and very young persons are
sent to the penitentiaries, we trust
that other Governors may be found,
who, like Gov. Blackburn, will turn

The name Of Secretary Sher>
man is still mentioned in connection
with the Senatorial seat soon to be
vacated by Judge Thurman. A
Washington special to the Cincin-
natl Commercial, dated the 3rd
inst, says:
Within the past few days Secre-
tary Sherman has received quite q
number of letters from Republican
members elect to the Ohio Legislature,
asking him if he would be a candidate
for the Senate. He has also received
letters from other parties in Ohio, de-
string the same information. From
Cincinnati he received 8 letter signed
Jointly by two or three members elect
to the Legislature. To this he has
made a reply which, in his estimation,
covers the ground. He declines to be
a candidate or TO allow the use of his
name as a candidate. His position is
the same as in reference to the Gov
ernOrship, last summer. He is not a
candidate, and it is too early to say
what he would do If the position was
rendered by the unanimous vote of the
Republicans in the Legislature, His
refusal to become a candidate is but a
r%eiteratiOn Of what he has said all the
time. He has Informally expressed
himself as not desiring the position.
His intimate friends say, however,
that if the Republicans sGouId be IN
able 10 agree on q candidate, and the
| position was rendered him with
unanimity, he would accept"
