The Mississippi ms II Check TO
Railway Rates.

Some time since we noticed the
fact that by far the greater portion
Of tran-Nlississippi produce that
sought market in the East, or that
was intended for re-shipmcnt to
Europe, crossed the Mississippi
river and came Eastward by rail.
This will doubtless always be the
case so long rs the freight charges
are maintained ut Il very low figure.
When they become excessive, how
ever, the route by the Mississippi
river via New Orleans becomes
available and checks excessive rates
This was quito recently illustrated
Us the fact that tho receipts Of grain
a. New Orleans for the week end
ing january 3l--namcly 1,120,000
bushels were greater than the
average monthly receipts for many
years previously, or during the long
time Of low rates by rail, while
during the last two months there
has been a large increase over the
usual average. This is directly
traccablo to m increase in the rates
H. mil, and, We believe, Is the first
practical demonstration, since rail-
road consultations have taken
place on n large scale, that mighty
rival to their presumed monopoly
exists. There is Il valuable hint
here for the merchants and boat
owners Of st. Louis and New Or.
leans and the intermediate cities on
the Mississippi. BY keeping thcil
grand highway well equipped they
can without doubt maintain Il sue.
ccssful rivalry with the railway

IT will be seen that we are again
publishing notices of f. E. Sellers y

those notices two months. Several OF

THERE are $50 Supervisors Of the
Census to be appointed by the Presi-
dent, and confirmed by the Senate.
The President has made his appoint
ments, 81 of them being Democrats,
mostly rebels in the rebel States.
In Ohio, all the eight Supervisors
are Republicans. In this district
Judge Towne of Portsmouth has re-
ceived the appointment. There was
considerable Indignation recently in
the Columbus district, it having been
reported that a noisy copperhead
named Merrick would be selected; but
Rev. A. G. Byers has received the ap-
pointment. There are few better
men, or sounder Republicans, than
DR.. Byers. It is now claimed that
there never was any intention of ap-
pointing Merrick.

Blaine.

Last Thursday night large num-
Der Of the ablest and most prominent
Republicans of Columbus met for the
purpose of forming a Blaine club. R.
G. Hoffman, formerly our law partner,
presided, and made speech. Gen.
John Beatty, and other prominent
Republicans, made speeches.
There is one fact patent to every
man who has observed the signs of
the times, and that is, that Blaine is
the choice of nine-tenths of the Re-
publicans of Ohio, after John Sher-
man. State pride, and The great sue
cess of Sherman in carrying out The
resumption act, has, beyond doubt,
made him the first choice Of a major
ity of the Republicans of this State.
We have noticed that in this and the
adjoining counties, nearly all the man
ufacturers of iron, and other business
men. are for Sherman. The very
prosperous condition of business af-
fairs is attributed to Sherman's great
financial wisdom and success.
Should the Republicans in the other
States object to Sherman on The
ground that Ohio is asking too much,
and thus defeat Sherman, then Ohio
may be counted for Blaine.

He Puts Them Down.

There was a brilliant reception
given to Senator Garfield, by his many
friends in Washington City, on last
Thursday night. A large platform
was erected on which the seats were
arranged After the band had played
''Hail to the Chief" Senator Garfield
stepped out on the platform, which
Immediately gave way, precipitating
the entire crowd to the ground, but
hurting no one.
This reminds us of an incident oc-
curing at Garfield s meeting at Seioto
Furnace, September 18th, 1879. After
the band had played, Garfield stepped
forward, the crowd cheered. and down
went about one-third Of the seats.
Garfield quickly exclaimed: ''That re-
minds me of our hard times-we have
reached bottom, and now we begin to
get up again. This witty remark
placed the people in all excellent hui
NOR for the brilliant speech that fol
lowed.

how it was done, when off went anoth-

them. Now they propose to submit

the Journal advocate an equal division
of the electors? We doubt it.
Ohio is a Republican State Every
candid Democrat will concede this.
Now, this Republican State is repre-
sented in the q. S. Senate by two
Democrats. 1t would be equally fair
to have the representation in the low
er House chosen in the same way If
the State casts one more Democratic
vote than she casts Republican, why
not have solid Democratic represen-
tation in the House of Representa-
tives? This is the rule in all other
elections. The other rule would give
Gen. Ewing the right to serve as Gov

and over, of Fosters time. The many

Maine.

The situation in Maine has not i'm
proved. The Republican Legislature
took possession of the State House,
and would not permit the rebel Demo-
cratic Legislature to enter. Then the
latter met ON the sidewalk, the Speak
er of the House sitting on the fence.
Afterwards they met in hail.
On Friday night it was reported
that the rebels were drilling men, and
arming them, all over the State, and
Gov. Davis called troops into the State
House, to defend it, and the militia all
over the State were put in fighting
condition. Then "Gov." Smith, the
fusion, rebel, or Democratic Governor,
issued a proclamation, denying that
there was any intention of a resort to
violence. 1t is said that the rebel
Legislature has submitted it's claims
to the Supreme Court of the State.
We do not see why the rump Legisla-
ture should desire another decision, as
the Court has twice decided against it.
Perhaps the fusionists want an excuse
for dispensing, and if they get a third
decision against them, they can have
no claim whatever, that even the rebel
Democracy will attempt to excuse or
defend.

Random Thoughts,

| am well satisfied with the sub
scribers to THE STANDARD. As a
whole, they are honest and prompt to
pay. Some of them are poor, and
cannot pay when they would like to
do so; some are neglectful, and do not
pay when they ought to do so; but, as
first remarked, they are good people,
generally. In dealing with thousands
Of persons, it is not strange that oc-
casionally | meet with a mean man, or
one whose ideas of moral honesty do
not agree with my ideas on that sub
ject. | have a case in point.
Two years ago | was in a neighbor-
ing village, Il will not now give
names,) when [ met a man who told
me to send him THE STANDARD a year.
Nothing was said about payment. |
sent it to him two years, and not hear
ing from him | sent the bill to him.
He paid no, attention to it, when |
stopped his paper. At the end of the
year | wrote to him, when he sent the
pay for one year, and wrote that he
had only ordered it for one year, and
if | sent it over that time. | could not
blame him. thcn wrote to him that
if he took the | per out Of tbs office,
it was an implied contract that he
would pay for it, and the law, and
4. moral honesty would both hold him
to the contract. He is building a fine
house, | wrote to him that if | would
rent his house for one year, and live
in it two years, with his consent, and
at the end Of the two years he would
ask me for two years rent, and ]
would tell him that | only rented il
for one year, and he must not expect
me to pay rent for longer periot
than that for which | had contracted
he would have no doubt that | was
scoundrel.
The law is, that one who takes pa
) per out Of the Postoffice, is liable t.
pay for it, whether he ever subscribet
or not.
{ I wrote to the Postmaster to know

A MAN named William Noting
ham, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, last
week surrendered himself to the police
authorities, saying that he had killed
man in Norfolk, Va, four years ago.
He asserts that in all his wanderings,
since the murder, the face Of his VIC
tim has been constantly before his
eyes. The man has been identified by
parties of Norfolk, as man who mur-
dered companion in 1876. This is a
clear case of conscience Bringing a
criminal to punishment.

AT Springfield, Mo-, a young wo-

when she pursued after him, and shot
him dead. She is excused, by her
friends, on the ground that she was
in an "ungovernable passion 1t
would seem that the ''ungovernable
passion" which will not be satisfied
with anything short Of murder, should
be shorn Of its dangerous features.

The s.Nigger."

Last fall the Democratic politicians
hoped that the past record of their
party, in it's treatment of the colored
man, had been forgotten, and they
made great effort to get few celored
men to vote the Democratic ticket.
We then challenged them to point to
a single instance in legislation, either
State or National, where the Demo-
Gratis had ever voted in favor of the
rights of the >colored man. They
could not point to sing lie case.
This exhibition of low, unmeaning
prejudice, was once more exhibited by
the Democrats, in the present Legis-
lature. When the resolution came up
to censure the low Democrat who in
suited the colored member of the Leg
islature, every Democrat in the House
voted against the resolution, and every
Republican voted for the resolution.

Justice.

The State Of Ohio was divided into
Congressional districts by Republi-
can Legislature after the census of
1870 had been taken. Two years ago
Democratic Legislature changed
these districts, with the avowed pull
pose of increasing the Democratic rep
resentation in Congress. Now the
Republican Legislature will put the
districts back where they were for six
years, from 1872 to 1878.
The Republicans of Ohio demanded
this change, but the Cincinnati Times
became very magnanimous, and want
ed the Democracy to have. the advan-
tage, and now comes the Bucyrus
Journal, former pretended Republi-
can paper, and whines about the in
Justice to the dear Democracy. The
Journal gives some election returns,
in years picked out to suit its purpose,
and argues that the Democracy has
not had its share of the members Of
Congress, in proportion to its votes;
but the Journal is careful not to show
the returns for members of Congress
each year, from 1872 to 1878. This
would have shown the apportionment
of 1872 to have been a fair one.
What right has a minority to repre-
VIII the journal favor
the election of Presidential electors by
Congressional districts? We doubt
it. Suppose at the Presidential cleo
ton next fall, Tilden shall have 300,-
900 votes, and Blaine 299,999. Will
