cans were breathing out threats to the
effect that the Democrats would be
forced to talk tariff to the exclusion
of state issues. The New York HER
AID, which has oflate been inclined
to rally leading Democrats upon this
very question, gives unqualified praise
to the tariff plank in the Democratic
platform. 1t says: awhile it remains
necessary to raise revenue from GUS
toms duties, as it must for years to
come, the proper way, the way least
injurious to the general interest, least
accommodating monopolists and least
disadvantageous to the great body of
the people who live by honest labor,
could not easily be better described
than in this Democratic platform
We agree with the HERALD. There
is no free trade in the Ohio platform.
Nor do the Buckeye Democrats de-
clare for extreme protection as the
Republicans have done. The course
taken by the convention was moder-
ate, sensible and discreet, and worthy
of the Endorsement of all Democrats
as we'll as of those Republicans who
believe in a gradual, considerate re
duction of customs duties.

The Republican press over the
country is endeavoring to expunge
the words "Stalwarts' and "Half-
Breeds" as applied to the factions
of their party, from the political vo,
cabulary. 1t is q most colossal un-
dertaking, equalled only by the effort
Of Long John Sherman to become
President of the United States. The
Boston Journal appeals to the people
in the following language:
The term "Stalwart" and "half.
breeds" and the ridicule of "the 3O6"
once had meaning and point. 1t was
some time since when the represent
ed factions of the Republican party
which wele divided over actual ifnot
important matters. But times have
changed. To intelligent Republi-
cans these terms no longer have
meaning. General Grant is not q
candidate for the Presidency. Mr..
Blaine also declines to be a candidate
for the Republican nomination. The
President has refused to keep alive
the f~actional feeling which these
Names indicate by recognizing one
to the exclusion of the other. 1t is
a good time to stop using these ole
fractional names, which have no mean
ing now and are no use except to as
| sist the common enemy.

The Republican papers are en-
deavoring to make capital out of the
fact that Judge Hoadly was once a
member of their party. 1t is true,
that is rather a dark spot in the po-
litical life of Mr.. Hoadly, but as he
got out of his bad company without
being smirched with the star route
robberies, the whisky ring swindles,
the salary grab disgrace, the Belk-
nap populations, the "Boss" Shep.
pard District Columbia plumber, the
returning board scoundrelism, any
Carpet,b bag rascal!ty, or other similar
Republican jobs or theft and crimes,
we regard the truth of it as q strong
reason why, not only every Demo
crat, but every honest Republican in
the State should support him fol-
Governor.

Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Those Republicans who affect to
believe that the German Americans
will swallow the insults of, Charles
Foster and the bowling fanatics who
follow him, are running after a delu-
sion. They need to stop and consid-
er a few cold facts:
For instance:
There is not a prominent German
in Ohio who can be found to take
the stump for Fosters ticket.
There is not a prominent German
in Ohio who supports the Foster
ticket.
There is not a German newspaper
in Ohio that supports the Foster
ticket.
The Cleveland Leader has taken
to printing editorials in German, be-
cause, as it sorrowfully admits, there
are no longer any German Republi'
can papers.
All the leading German newspa.
pers in the country, without regard
to party, and all the prominent Ger.
man American leaders in the coun'
try openly advocate the election Of
Hoadly and the Democratic ticket
These are facts, the cold, hard
facts that stare the party Of fraud
intolerance and fanaticism in the
face. Neither the abuse that Foster
sees fit to pour out on the Germans
nor the fulsome lattery Of Foster
man, Foraker, will alter any ofthem

When South Carolina pities New
England for lack of prosperity in
manufactures, as compared with the
South, the oldest inhabitants may
well permit himself to be astonish
ed. The Charleston NeWs and Cour,
Ter repeats the observations of a Bos-
ton newspaper about the depression
in Massachusetts, and then says
"In the South q very different condi-
ton Of things prevails. All of our
manufacturing and other industries
are Furnishing. Our cotton mills,
especially, are doing a wonderful
successful and increasing business.
The old mills are running on full
time and are crowded with orders,
and in all parts of the country new
factories are going up, while others
are projected and are sure to be
built"

The following from the national
organ Of the Republican party is
significant. The New York Times
is the paper referred to. 1t does not
like to see the fraud and corruption
of its party Endorsed:
"Turn the rascals outl" is to be the
war cry of the Democrats next sum-
mer. This does not mean merely the
proved though as yet unbranded ras-
calls. 1t means you, President Ar
thur; you, Secretary Folger; you,
Secretary Chandler; you Mr. natton.
1t means turn out everybody who is
now in. Every honest Republican
will confess with shame and NORTH
cation that tho failure of the party 20
purge itself of and punish its proven
rascals affords a fair ground for an at
tack of this kind, and adds O hundred
fold to its effectiveness before the peo-
pie. If the party in power has be-
come so corrupt or morally debilita-
ted that it cannot cast off and punish
the thieves who have fattened on its
prosperity, then the people will take
up the cry of "turn The rascals out"
and the honest and the vicious alike
will be turned out neck and heels"

The New York papers, except the
Tribune, Congratulate the Ohio Dem
ocracy on the wisdom of their action.
The World says Hoadly's nomina-
ton was "brave and shrewd." The
Sun predicts his election and is very
complimentary. The Herald con-
graduates the Ohio Democracy, and
adds:
They have made a platform on
which sensible citizens DESTROYS OF

The Scott law provides for the
taxation of each retail liquor dealer,
who sells spirituous and malt liquors,
5000 per annum, and 800 were none
but malt liquors are sold. The tax
is q lien upon the property. The
law says:
In every county three-fourths of
the money paid, as herein provided,
into the county treasury, on account
of any business aforesaid carried on
and in any city or village therein,
shall, upon the warrant Of the coun-
ty auditor, be paid into the treasury
of such corporation, one-half to the
credit of the police fund, and one
half to the credit of the general rev
enue fund thereof; provided, in cor
porations having no police fund, the
entire three-fonrths shall be passed
to the credit of the general revenue
fund thereof. The other fourth, to-
gether with all other revenues result
ing hereunder in said county, shall
be passed to the credit. of the poor
fund of such county"
Any incorporated village or city
may regulate and control the traffic
on Sunday, and the old law forbid
ding the sale of liquor on the prem
ises, is repealed by virtue of the de.
cision ofthe Court. In communities
where there is a preponderating sen.
timent against the traffic, and the
inhabitants care to enforce it, they
may do so under the Scott law.

In nominating Judge Hoadly for
Governor the Democrats of Ohio
made q wise selection. Although a
Republican at one time he has been
an enthusiastic Democrat for quite a
number of years and enjoys the full
confidence of the friends of honest
government all over the State. In
1880 he was temporary chairman of
the National Democratic Convention
at Cincinnati and the writer of these
lines had the pleasure of listening to
his address on that occasion. We re-
member wildly how his references 10

ly applauded of any of his sentences.
There is every indication of his tri-
umphant election.

Evervtbing u,,on the surface au-

Everything upon the surface au-
gurs favorable for a sweeping Dem
ocratic success in Ohio, and we fond
ly hope that these favorable omens
will he realised next October in a
triumphant victory. We, however,
but do our conscientious duty when
we bid our party leaders to beware
lest these propitious signs prove il
lusory and deceptive. We must not
commit the .inexCusable folly OF
thinking that our political enemies
will be caught mapping in a contest
that involves almost their very exist
ence as a party, that they will yield
the battle without adesperate strug-
gle, and that the sanguine Demo
cratic hosts under the lead of the
able aud talented HoADLY can march
right in and capture the Republican
fortress together with its crew of
Bosses. We need not expect to dream
ourselves into victory that way, but
the sensible thing to do is to go to
work at once and prepare for a hand
to hand conflict of the hardest kind.
Past experience has taught the Re-
publicans of Ohio that they must
fight harder and fiercer than they
ever did before, and no matter how
bright and glorious our prospects
may seem, we may expect to find
them ready to meet US when the bat
tie opens. We have a standard bear
er whose name is beyond %reproach,
and whose nomination is an honor
to the State and to the party, but
these will avail US nothing if we per

with hope, the lukewarm with enthu
siasm, and the faint hearted with

tory, that will blaze the way for ONE
