The Cincinnati Enquirer follows I'D Its show
Ing OF republican sentiment In Ohio in regard
to the goyernorship and campaign platform, BY
q similar presentation Of the views OF demo-
Gratis all over the state upon the same questions
Governor Bishop has the lead, though not
very decided one, for denomination. The
second-term precedent is greatly in his favor,
and there Is q widespread endorsement OF his
administration as an honest and respectable
one. At the same time there are occasional
violent expressions against him, and few pre-
dict democratic defeat as the result of his re-
nomination. General Rice has a large follow
Ing, and his connection with the arrears OF
pensions bill Is set down as one OF the largest
items of his strength, though its power WITH
the people Is by no means unanimously con-
ceded by democrats or by republicans either.
He seems to be looked upon too, to q consider
able degree as representative Of the OHIO
idea, and his name Is frequently associated
with the proposition to coalesce with the
nationals. General Durbin Ward comes out
as q strong third man In the race. He rep
resents the nearest approach to a hard-money
element there Is In the democratic party
In Ohio and this strength Is enhanced by
his honorable record as soldier and the
fact that he has been persistent and
valuable party worker without reward.
Judge Ranney ranks as the fourth in the list OF
gubernatorial candidates. General Ewing occu-
pies much the same position with the Ohio de-
mocracy that General Garfield does with the
republicans. But for his position In Congress
there would be a loud call for him for Gov
ernor.
In regard to the plan Of lcampaign, the major
ity favor greenback platform, and there is
willingness expressed ''to give such terms to
the nationals as will be honorable to both par
ties" The manner of coalition Is left to the
future. There is general agreement upon
the proposition for the substitution OF green
backs for national bank notes. The showing on
the presidential question indicates "a positive
drift to Thurman"

There Is general impression that the crime
OF incendiar1Sm Is on the increase. This view
was naturally taken at the meeting Of the
National Board OF Underwriters In New York
last week. Whether or not it be true that the
crime Is Increasing, it cannot be denied that 1t
prevails to an alarming extent. 1t appears
that OF the 1888 fires reported last year, nearly
twenty per cent. were known to be of incen-
diary origin, and OF nearly one half of the re-
mainder the causes were unknown and un-
traceabie. Arson Is regarded as one OF the
chief sources OF loss to insurance companies
Men whose property Is insured beyond its pres
emit value are strongly tempted to the crime
There are cases on record where organizations
have been formed to defraud insurance compa-
MES systematically In this way Houses are fire.
Quently set on fire by way Of revenge upon their
owners, and there Is class of monomaniacs
who are incendiaries by nature and not from
considerations Of profit or revenge. So it hap
pens that the list Of incendiary fires is second
In numbers only to the list of those whose causes
are unknown. 1t Is pointed out, however, that
the belief of the underwriters that the crime Of
1ncendiarism Is increasing Is hardly sustained
by their own showing. For last year $59, $50 were
offered as rewards for the detection and con-
victon Of incend1aries by the board of under
writer's, while for the previous year the amount
was only $685. $50. Notwithstanding this increase
In rewards offered and the consequent induce
ments to the discovery of the crime where 1t ex-
listed, only one-hah as many persons were con-
v1cted In the last as in the preceding year. 1t
may be that the efforts OF the insurers to check
the increase of incendiarism have been more
enectual than the great prevalence OF the crime,
their known losses from this cause, and their
suspicious OF others, win permit them to be-
Heve.

The public verdict is that Senator Logan is
to blame for declining to answer the first let

for proposing duel. In modern civilization
the duelling business Is held to be both odlous
and absurd. In this case neither of the parties
needed to establish his bravery by resort to

Precedent requires that the reported move
ments OF foreign nations should be denied and
re- asserted at least once or twice before the
truth Is known. The denial OF the story that
Russia has ceded Kuldja to China Is unusually
delayed, but 1t has come at last Kuid,a "a a
rich and fertile territory, with an area OF
$4,000 square miles, and a population of more
than 100000. 1t was formerly the northwestern
province Of China. Some fifteen years ago the
Chinese were driven out OF this territory by an
outbreak, and In 1871 Russia took possession of
the province, ostensibly to prevent 1t from fan.
Ing into the hands OF the ruler of Kashgar, then
at war with China, with the promise to restore
IL 10 the latter as soon as the empire showed
the power to hold 1t. The latest dispatch. which
says that Russia has refused to make the res.
storation, though China has conquered Kash-
gar, indicates that the Car will not give I'D the
prize until China shows the power not merely
TO hold but to take it.

The battle of>(he medical schools has been
continued lately by the expulsion of Dr.. Pardee
from an allOpath1c medical association In Con-
necticut because he consulted with his wife,
who Is homeopathic physician. 1t seems that
DR.. Pardee Is an Old practitioner In Norwalk
Connecticut. Some time ago he married an in-
telligent young school teacher who had given
some attention to the subject of medicine, and
who, after their marriage, fitted herself for
practice by attending lectures at the New York
Homeopathic College. DIR. Pardee and Mrs. DR..
Emily Pardee then praetised their different
schools OF medicine In amicabIe association, to
the disgust Of the allopathic brethren. They
used the same offices; kept their horses In the
same barn, exchanging the allopathic horse for
the homeopathic animal, and vice versa every
now and then for convenience sake; and to
add to these heresies DR.. Pardee took some
medicines to his wifes patients while she was
III, and on another occasion the two
assisted In dressing the broken leg OF
Mrs. Gibbs, with other practices schis-
matte and contrary to the allopathlc code,
Then, again, 1t was suspected that the big-pIIl
doctor shared the profits Of the large practice
OF bis lttlep pellet wife. 1t was In evidence that
DR.. Pardee had paid the homeopathic tuition
OF his wife, and altogether his fellow -practi-
TONERS found 1t requisite to discipline him In
the interests Of their school. Charges were
brought against him to the above effect In the
county medical association, he was tried by the
state association, the latter returned the mat
ter to the county association who have expelled
him. The Norwalk community Is greatly torn
up about the matter, and the ladies' of the
neighborhood, who cannot be made to under
stand the necessity for keeping up the discip.
line OF the medical code, and whose sympathies

making Life miserable for the prosecuting doc.

Few Texans of the present day know
the origin of many of the old Spanish
and Mexican names of the mountains,
rivers and towns of Texas. The city Of
Galveston, it is pretty generally known,
took its name from the old Spanish
viceroy Galvez; Goliad is an anagram
on the name of the Mexican priest,
patriot and soldier, Hidalgo, the H being
omitted as silent. The many places
called after saints are easily distinguish
ed. Among the decayed towns which
had their origin during the period of
Mexican rule in Texas, Velasco, at the
mouth of the River Brazos, is one of the
name of which but few now know the
origin. The revolt which ended in the
separation of Mexico from Spain was
not the first attemppt OF the Mexicans
t. break the yoke of their conquerors.
Don Luis de Velasco, who figured in
Mexico between the years 1861 and 1854,
raised the standard of revolt, and in his
pronunciamiento said " that the liberty
Of the natives was of more importance
than all the mines in the world, and that
the revenues they yielded to the Span
ish crown were not of such character
that all divine and human laws should
be sacrificed in order to obtain thsm."
Another Velasco, who figures in history
from 1880 until 1896, is regarded - .
public benefactor. He established the
manufacture of coarse stuffs in cotton
and wool. He built the Alameda in
Mexico City, and gave the Indians work; /;
and he it was who ordered that even
chickens should Be q legal tender for
taxes. Some Texans would be glad to
pay their taxes in the same way at
present. Galveston Terds) Nesos.

The picturesque lines of Mrs. Hemans
about the dashing waves breaking high

the point clans bored the sands, while
the diamond-backed terrapin ambled

roots to make tea delicious as the bever-
