The question of successor to Gen.
Garfield in the U. s. Senate now pre-
sents itself. In connection with the
position, says the Columbus Journal,
the following names have been men,
toned: Governor Charles Foster, Hon.
Stanley Matthews, Hon. Alfonso Taft,
Hon. William Dennison, General John
Beatty, Judge w. III. West, Hon. VIII
liam Lawrence, Secretary John Sher-
man, President R. B. Hayes, Hon. S. S.
Shelabarger and Senator Rowland.
With such an array of names there
should be no trouble in finding a fit
representative. Ohio is a great State,
and occupies a commanding position in
the political affairs of the Nation, and
her Senators should be men of COM
manding talents. Ability, and not
mere good-fellowship, should control
the selection.

A Versatile Villain.

Ed. Troy created a stir at 10
o'clock Monday night. Meeting Mr..
Henry Beall he struck him with q
pair of metal knuckles, producing
quite a cash in the head. This
without provocation. Next he went
home, shot twice at his colored
spouse, then three times at himself,
and ended the matinee by firing the
house. The police nabbed him and
by means of one man at each ex-
tremity succeeded in juggling him.
Here he continued his jamboree by
setting fire to the bedding. His
honor, the Mayor, imposed costs and
fine amounting to $33 80.
Troy will be remembered as the
negro who stole Mr.. Beall's hog, set
fire to country house and stole a
watch and gun. He is the man
who buried Mr.. Martin during vel
low fever days. He is a bad, bad
man and was crazy drunk on the
above light.

It having been asserted by some chat the Re.
publican Committeeman OF Guysn Township
failed to perform his duty in the late election.
take the liberty to state in justice to Mr.. Haskn.
that he not only dis, harged his duties fully bat
that he secured the largest Republican vote ever
polled in Guyan township.
The fact that number of Republican voters
were not at the polls, or did not vote, was be-
yond the control OF the committeeman. IRON the
fact that we as Republicans. do not propose to
coerce men to neglect their business and vote.
when such is inconsistent with them.
The facts in the matter are these: Two Re-
publican voters were in the State OF Illinois ON
the day of election; Ave in West Virginia at
work one in Meizs county; four sick and un-
able to get to the polls without exposure beyond
prudence; one with sickness in his family, SO
that he could not consistently get to the polls;
two were at the place OF voting. but for reasons
which shall not attempt to explain, did not
vote. and three remained at home without ex-
cuse though visited by the several committee
men.
Thus we are able to account for every Republi-
can voter in the township. From the above it
will be seen that although we were in bad shape
on election day. we have the ability to carry
the township on full vote. as we know of but
three democrats who were not at the election
A full vote would stand thus:
Republicans, 80
Democrats, 2s4
Three Republican ballots were lost from care
lessness of voter.
We censure no one with our defeat in this
township, but congratulate ourselves over our
present political condition. compared with the
past.

Obituary.

Died, after protracted, laborious
and painful attack Of prostration,
several statesmen. The funeral SER
vices are over, and the bodies ready
for burial. Some difficulty is ex-
perienced in separating the pail
bearers from the corpses. In Indi-
ana the two are mixed up indis-
criminately in the wrangle about
who shall be buried. There is suffi-
cient material for both, but none
seem willing to serve as the corpse,
while all are willing to act as pail
bearers. Those who want to carry
the pail insist that the others are
dead--stinking dead-and should be
planted at once. Much the same
condition exists in Ohio. 1t will be
sad if the bodies are kept around
until putrefaction sets in.-Cinci8-

Everybody Thankful,

The one great and grave danger to the
country, a result so close as 10 be indis-
putable. has been avoided, and for this
all good citizens, all men who love their
country, no matter for whom they
voted, will be devoutly thankful. There
will be time enough hereafter to discuss
the causes Of this overwhelming victory
for the Republicans. 1t Is plain, how
ever, that the country does not fancy the
..SoIid South" aud that it does not ad-
mire the lack of brains and of principles
for which the Democratic canvass was
chiefly conspicuous. Besides this, the
American people saw no sufficient rea-
son for a change of administration.
Whenever the Democrats can agree
upon policy and muster up courage
enough to assert and explain it before
the people. If at the same time, they can
shake off the load of the Solid South,
they nay have some hope of successs.-
