John Sherman's fences are in a
wretched condition in Ohio, and the
stalwart herd are ranging at will and
cavorting about over the grain fields
and green pastures. The grand Blaine
boom at Columbus on Thursday night
last scattered the rails and lumber of
the favorite sonney ~. in every di-
rection, and left the fences in such a
condition as to render them utterly
worthless and place them beyond the
probility of being repaired. In point
of numbers and enthusiasm the Sher-
man affair of a week previous was no.
where. Large delegations were pres
ent from all quarters of the State and
an abundance of earnest speakers were
brought out to fire the popular mind
for the plumbed Knight of the "Pine
Tree State" The irrepressible con-
nict between the embodiment of hate
and the great national wrecker is al
ready inaugurated in Ohio. The an
tagonists have locked horns. The

band and bruin. Let the war go on,

In the selection of delegates from
New York City to the Republican
State Convention, George William
Curtis, editor of Harper's Weekly was
left out in the cold. This is doubtless
owing to the fact that he don take
any stock in the "strong man, ""strong
government" howl of the Radical
leaders, as is shown by the following
sensible remarks on that subject from
his pen:
"There is no more intolerable and
unrepublican nonsense than the talk
of the necessity of strong man in
the Presidents chair. 1t is the cry Of
distrust of American Institutions. 1t
is q cry of welcome to those who des-
pise Republic and aisbelieve in it.
What we need ia not the government
of . strong man, but Of Q strong peO.
pie, that is, of a people strong In their
loyalty to law, strong In their faith in
free popular instiiuiiOns, strong to
maintain every bulwark of liberty and
the Republic, which the experience of
q century and the example OF our best
and wisest patriots have erected. Our
Government can not be stronger
than 1t is without cessing to be pop.

Hopley. of the Bucyrus Journal, an
out-and-out stslwart Republican paper
sees the infamy of the gerrymander Of

resentatives and has the honesty and

Gratis are virtually disfrsnchised and
robbed of their political representa-
ton in Congress by this villainy. and

The Legislative Deficiency Bill.
The Ohio House of Representative
on Saturday last, under the lead Of DIR.
Scott, Chairman of the Finance Com
mittee of the House, passed bill that
is called Deficiency Bill. We have
not seen a copy of the bill, and, there
fore, know nothing of its details. This
paragraph we find in the Pittsburgh
Commercial Gazette (Republican) of
Monday, and it will undoubtedly be
re-echoed by every Republican paper
in Ohio:
On Saturday the Ohio House of
bill of $268,OOO. This is what comes
of the yaunted retrenchment of the
Democratic Legislature Of last winter.
If an aggregate deficiency in the
State Appropriations of $268, 600
should occasion wonder and serve as
an admonition against entrusting the
State Government, including the Leg
islative Department, to the hands Of
the Democratic party, how are we to
view the deficiency in the State Ap-
tu0S S0lAC w tAO 1oSO
Democratic Legislature az a legacy
from the last session of the Immediate
ly preceding Republican Legislature
to be regarded? They amounted to
$3.50, ,573. 3.9O--$12 $500 MORE
than the amount of the alleged defic-
ieDc:es in the bill passed by the House
on Saturday last. t
There had to be appropriated by the
Democratic Legislature at it's first ses-
sion in 1878. $4,000 to pay for the
publication Of the proposed COnstitu-
iionsl Amendments, published in pur-
suancs OF q law enacted by the Repub-
lican Legislature April 30, 1877. See
page Of General Lave of Ohio Tor

pirate $6S. S.424 So 10 pay the expenses

Governor Young to Qnell the disturb

WHENEVER the protective tariff of
the United States is threatened, some
Englishmau comes to the help of the
iniquity with the assertion that the
protected American manufacturers are
driving free trade England out of the
markers OF the world. Such asaer-
tions are manliestly false or they
prove too much-that If the American
manufacturers, whose costs and ex-
penscs on every side are increased by
the tariff which gives others as well as
himself nonopolies of American mar
keis, can successfully compete in open
markets with the English manufactur
er whose labor is cheap and who re-
ceives his raw materials free of duty,
then he does not need that the Amer
ican market shall be closed by his
English competitor. But, also, they
indicate that the old protective rally
