Foster and HOadly.

We do not think the correspondence
between Mr.. HoADLY and Governor Eos
TER, which we print elsewhere this NOR
ming, very credltable to Fo TER. He al
lowed himself to accuse Mr.. HoADLY of
having bought his nomination. Called
to sccount for that by HoADLY, FOSTER
says be "heard" it, and then adds a
gross aud gratuitous insult, bat declines
to name the person from whom he says
be heard the charge.
HoADLY does all that a man can d =,
under such circumstances. He positively
denies what IS charged bv FOSTER The
Republican leaders In Ohio must fee!
themselves sorely pressed when the Gov.
ernor Of the State resorts to such low
and base ISLANDERS against the man
who may he his successor. But Gov
ernor FOSTER seems OF late to have
taken distinct step down in life. He
volunteered praise of Star Route BRADr
and sympathy for DORSEY on the con-
clusiou OF the Star Route trial. aud ii is
evident that be has been keeping low
company and is badly demorslized. 10
bis better days he would have left such
dirty business as this to men like ex-
Speaker KEIFER.

Civil suits are to be commenced by
the Government against the following
named Star Route contractors, on ac-
counts under the expedited service aided
by BRADY, DORSEY & Co.:
These accounts aggregate omitting
cents S1,073,4s9 divided among the
contractors as follows: Against JOHN
W. PEcK, on seven routes in California.
Oregon, Nebraska and Utah Territory,
$27l,2l6; against JOHN R. MINER, on
FIVE routes in Colorado and Dsko,a Ter
ritory Sl2s,sl3; against JoHs W. Dor.
SET, on six routes 10 Colorado. Ariz IRA

j. SALISBURY. on three routes in Nevada,

v. W. PARKER, on one route in the In
dian Territory. SI79.340. against E. W.
PARKER, on one route in Arkansas, $685..

S45, ,679, and against LUKE VOORHEES,, on
one route in Dakota Territory, S2l, ,299,
And in the face uf these known swim
dies, the Republicans have the impudence
to ask the people to vote to keep them
in Office.

Columbus Times.

We have never seen such just comicsl
squirming as the candidacy of Judge
Hoadly has caused among the Republi-
cans. They attack him vigorously and
unrelentingly but daily caange their
point of assault This is an Rnavoid-
able confession that they cannot get the
correct range. One day they plant their
mortsrs and throw bombs at him, charg
ed with she silly stuff that he favors un-
restrained liquor drinking. Next they
she'll him from the standpoint that he
wants every saloon razed from the earth.
One day he rs an atheist and the next he
is Mason. Then he is aii anti slavery
man, and then supporter Of Ku-Klux
ism. We would suggest that the wor-
ried assailants climb up somewhere and
drop on the Judge.

What Wool Growers Lose by the
Tariff.

What Wool Growers Lose by the
Tariff.
The tariff duty on wool was. by the
late Congress, reduced three and one
half cents pound. This reduction is at
the rate OF about eighteen cents on each
clip, averaging The clip at FIVE pounds.
Every farmer, therefore, who has thou
sand pounds OF wool to dispose OF loses
by this tariH reduction S35 The mum
Der Of steep IN Monroe County is, in
round numbers, $4,000, making al an
nual clip of about $4,000 pounds. Ac-
oording to the ab I'VE rate OF reduction
the loss to the farmers Of Monroe Coun-
ty the present season, under this reduced
tariff on wool, will be between $4,000
and $4,000. The entire wool clip Of
Ohio the present year is about 27,o0O,-
600 pounds, the number Of sheep being
4.500, 900, and the loss TO the entire
farming population Of the State, from
this one cause, is near 81, ,0000 900.
By the same tariff. the rate on manu-.
featured woolen goods is increased, so
that the wool grower issaxed both ways

wool and that Of an increase in the price

Judge Foraker's Hamilton speech has
attracted hut little attention from the
Ohio press, but the papers elsewhere
have given it few lines. The Phila-
delphia Record says:
"The speech OF Judge Foraker does
MT read like popular or persuasive ef-
fort. 1t is lahored and dull, and con.
slant repetitions weaken even his best
arguments. These defects are of little
consequence except as indicating a prob.
ability that he can not hope by personal
eloquence and winning manners to gain
adherents not convinced by his logic"
There is one point on which the Re
cord confesses that it has not been con-
vinced bv his logic:
"Speaking in manufacturing town
where the protection element was we'll
represented, he made bold bid for the
protection vote by the assertion that by
means of protection We have built up
the industries Of the country, multiplied
their numb r, snd brought about home
competilion to the extent of cheapening
these products below what they could
he honght for from other nations-and
all this without cheapening labor, and
with Increased prosperity for the whole
country Now, the claim of protection
is that it Is necessary to prevent the en-
! ployers of 'pauper labor in Europe
from so underselling our manufacturers
as to drive them out of bnsiness nr com.
pei them to paw only rauper wages to
their work people. Judge Foraker dis
tinctly Yepudiates this theory. He says
that home competition has cheapened
manufactured products 'below what they
could he bought for from other nations
-and all this without cheapening labor
What, then, is the tariff good for, since
we can now undersell our foreign com
petitors 2'
The New York Sun fin Is in it more
serious defect than lack of logic. C,m
menting upon Judge F,raker's assertion
that Star Route Jnror Dickson had Mr.
Tllden's promise for a marshalship for
services rendered in 1876, the SUI says
''We are informed nv gentleman

one of those mythical friends who have
recently pretended to speak for Mr. Til
den. that the existence OF such person
as Mr.. William Dickson was totally I'M

as Juror in the star route trial. The
story that he had any sort of assurance
