elements of a noble manhood. They have
battled with obstacles which would have
crushed any other people. Through oil the
dark days which have supervened since the
establishment of the first republic in their
hearts, they have clung to their idol and
eagerly looked forward TO the day of its
consummation. The republic is not super
fcial sentiment of periodical eruption with
them as so many would have us believe.
They are misinterpreted. They are really
republicans by nature. But centuries of
misrule and doloful Ignorance have lefl too
deeply their broad furrows. Given the
open bible, - and the public school, and the
religious sentiment which characterizos the
American, and France yill yet prove to the

TIE OHIO MIDDLE.

The Sandusky Register cannot draw us
any deeper into the Ohio controversy than
to state the inferences that are unavoidable
from perusal of Secretary SHERMAN's in
terview with Gath" We take little stock
in Ohio IDEAS" Ohio fights or the general
run of Ohio politics, for so far rs we have
been able to analyzc them, they all have n
common bnsis-intenso Sellishness, self con-
ceit, prejudice and unreosouing self-will
But we have supposed and we still suppose
that Secretary SHERMAN had very intelli-
gent understanding of his own case when
he unbosomed himself to GEORGE ALFRED
TOWNSEND and through his facilo and
licensed pen percolated his grieis and sor-
rows to the world Our reference TO the
situation rs the secretary presented it, and
rs he evidently understands it, has brought
the Sandusky Reqistcr to the front in very
grave mood, which prompts it TO say:
1t is about time to remark that there is not
a word of truth in the report, nor is there any
reasonable foundation to suspect that Gov
ernor FOSTER was in the movement to bring
out GARFIELD.
The Secretary had no hesitancy in adj
vancing the idea to Gath" knowing
that it WAS for the general market that
Governor FOSTER entered the convention
with vice-presidential bee in his bonnet,
which handicapped his influence and USE
fulness as pledged and devoted friend of
Secretary SHERMAN. AS it turned out,
| SHERMAN lost, and his foremost friend and
indorser was the winner. The gun which
was charged in Ohio with anything TO beat
"GRANT" made sad havoc among its gun
ners The state whose delegation had no
vote for GRANT from beginning to end, on
account of narrow prejudice and pique,
failed to honor either of the favorites who
were borne into the convention in the arms
of its delegates. There may have been u
body of the republican party are pleased
with it, and that reconcies us to its wis
dom. The friends of General GRANT are
content. They have no griels to nurse, but
will enter the contest with as much zeal
and fidelity as any representative from the
state which took especial pains to insult
General GRANT and his friends by with
holding from him the slightest recognition
during the preliminary canvass and the
holding ofthe convention. General GRANTS
friends have no quarrel with the determine
tions of the convention, believing that its
judgment was guided by wise oxpediency
under the circumstances They propose 10
leave the disappointments, heart. burnings
and revenges of Ohio 10 be settled between
the parties directly involved, and if possi-

We would suggest, however, the advisable

SHALL CRIME pN COVERED Upq

As an exponent of republican sentiment,
published in city of large republican
majority, we might with great propriety
complain that our city government in all
its appointments is in democratic hands,
for such is the undeniable fact But with
this all aside, we certainly have the right
to demand common honesty and common
integrity on the part of our officials, be
their politics what they may and the
prompt exposure of the criminal wherever
crime is discovered. Whenever our demo-
cratic friends undertake to cover up and
shield bribe-tallers and forgers then is our
patience exhausted and silence is no longer
n virtue To protect criminals in places of
official trust is q crime against society.
During the recent congressional investi-
CATION of the District government gross
neglect of duty, vile acceptance of bribcs
and fourteen cases of absolute forgery were
brought to light-lorgores in the manip-
ulation of our taxes, n matter in which
every property. holder has quick interest,
and in which regard the honor of the gov
ernment and of the city demands prompt
and emphatic correction.
The facts disclosed, shameful and dirty,
are found in the published testimony taken
before the District committee, making q
solid volume of 3i2 pages,
The chairman of the subcommittee hav-
ing the business especially in charge was
ordered by the committee to make re-
port bringing clearly before congress and
the president and the people of the District
the facts brought to light. The chairman
had his report in re adiness weeks before
the adjournment, but determined, per.
sistent, influential and successful attempt
was made to keep the report from coming
before congress and in that way reaching
the people. This democratic house, which
had so much to say about fraud covered
up and suppressed this attempted expo osurt
of downright and wholesale forgery these
democrats, so noisy in other days about cx
travagancies of the old board of public
works, not willing to allow whisper ia
regard to absolute forgeries when theil
friends happen to be in power.
Who is the man, or the men, thus manip
ulating congress aud so anxious TO hid
crime and protect criminals? The tax
payers of the District want an answer I,
this question. We are indulging in NJ
wholesale denunciation of our Distric
officials. Every honest man among then
is interested with us and every good citi
zen in the exposure of the criminals TO
suspicious may fall anywhere until trace
home to the guilty.
These forgers Of our tax-certiicntes hay
triumphed with their brethren of the dem
ocratc house, but they have not been alilS
successful with the grand jury of the Dis
trict. This grand inquest has found indict
ments against several of the gentry o
Four-and-a-half street for forgery and re
ported the whole concern as cOnspicuou
for gross carelessness and neglect of duty
Now let us see if the court will stand up t
its proper work; or, if justice shall bo de
feated here in her own temple. VIII tn
president, the last resort, do his duty
Or is judgment forever turned backward il
Washington and is justice fallen in on

THE FRENCH ItErEs.

Yesterday was duly observed throughout
France rs the anniversary Of the stormng
of the bastile. Salvos of artillery heraded
in its advent, and the vast multitude of rep
resentatives from every province of the
promising republic which have gathered
during the last few days within its gay
capital lent volume to the tumult. And
this fair land, heavens richest gift TO man,
takes up the dying echoes, aud from its
heart Of hearts returns to France its sim
cere greeting
Where stood the bastie is now the
column of July, proclaiming TO man the
history of the world, an age of night and
oppression on one hand, aud an unfolding
era of light and freedom on the other
But this event has another significance.
The recurrence Of its anniversary affords the
French an opportunity to manifest on a
scale ofgrcat magnidcence tn cir fidelity to
the republic and their attachment to its
precious legacics All France seems to be
awake. For well nigh 100 years she has
sown in tears aud blood the seeds of the
republic and now appears tho harvest
God grant that it may be plcnteous one
The French are a noble people. Enihu'

and action, their very vices captiyate

THE democrats seem to think they have
found n mares nest with q redundancy Of
eggs in the results of General GARFGELD's
several congressional canvassos, including
and since 1872. In that year, when Cen
oral GRANT ran for president against
GREELEY ahd neqrly everybody voted
the republican ticket, his majority was
1904. In 1874 from local causes, in
ertness, etc, it was 1896 In 1876 it
was swellcd again to S,G32. In 1873 it
was $3.50. In all this time, with torrent
of abuse and vililcation pouring in upon
him, ho was never rcpudiated by n majority
of his constituents aa he would have been
if they had not trusted in his integrity,
though assailcd. Under the vicissitudes Of
politics, General GARF IELD's district is not
the only one in the country where there
have been large changes and revulsions.
It is enough to say that lie not only has
never been beaten by his enemies, but
since they have made their onslaught upon
him he has been triumphantly elected to
the senate of the United States by his state.
This last act Of the republicans of Ohio
literally sweeps away every vestigo Of the
calumnies brought to bear upon him. This

HENRY WARD BEECHER is now moved
to define his theology. Heterodoxy having
been imputed TO him he makes q statement
of his faith that will be in the main accept
able to all orthodox people. He does not
accept the proper humanity of CHRIST, but
does accept His divinity. The divine in
spiration of the scriptures, the trinity,
the fall human depravity as n result of the
fall, the atonement, and rewards and pun
ishments after death are stated as parts of
his creed Thus he changes the outlook

Gen. Garfield. in his old fashioned
farm house at Mentor. Ohio, sees
everybody who calls, and gives every
one hearty welcome. His house is
as accessible as his nature IS frank
and open. Gen. Hancock sits in his
elegant furnished private office on
Governors Island, furnished by the
Government. and receives visitors
only on three days in the week, and
during limited hours. Sentries and
soldiers are to the front, rear, right
and left of his quarters, and the visi-
tor is pointed the way to his apart
ment with bayonet. Yet Demo.
Gratis say Garfield is type of centra-
lization and monarchism, while
Hancock represents true Democracy
and civil law.

General Hancock says the bayonet
is not fit instrument with which to-
collect the votes of freemen. In a
special despatch from Anderson, s..
c., TO the Charleston News and Cour-
Ter occurs the following: "The
Democratic mass meeting here to day
was great success. There were 2. l53
mounted red shirts in line and two
companies of artillery" On this the
CINCINNATI Commercial remarks; !;
"The two thousand mounted red
shirts were simply brigade of Con-
federate cavalry whose business 1t is
to maintain martial law, so that the
Republican majority in South Caro-
lima dare not show themselves at the
polls, This is the conservatism Of
assassination"

Toombs is wiser than Hampton
and BeltzhOOver. He does not deny
his letter, in which he uttered the
following vital truths: "YOu may
depend upon it, sir, that Yank or no
Yank, if elected the old boys of the
South will see to it that Hancock
does the fair thing by them. In
other words, he will run the machine
to suit them, or they will run the
thing themselves. They are not
going to be played thany longer"
That chimes in very well with Con-
gressman Aaiken's declaration that
the Southern body of the Democratic
party is tired of being wagged by its
Northern Democratic tail. They
furnish the votes and purpose to do
the bossing.

Let every laboring man bear strict
ly in mind that "a tariff for reUe7aue

And if they wish to accomplish this

selves out Of lucrative employment,
let them vote the Democratic ticket.
But if they wish to continue the era
of prosperity and plenty that obtain
at present, and for which they are
indebted to the Republican party, let
them vote for Garfield and Arthur.

Chairman Morrow, of the Repub-

to go Republican this fall. The vote

thinks, will be diyided between Han
cock and Weaver, leaving the Re-
publicans a handsome plurality.
General Garfield's attitude on the
Chinese question, seems to have in.
spired the Caifornians with conf
dence, while the Chinese plank IN the
Democratic platform is looked upon
as a mere niake-shift that really binds
the party to no policy whatever.
