The twO-cent letter postage stamps
arc familiar acquaintance to all our
readers now. At the time II was de-
cided to adopt twO-cent postage there
was considerable doubt as to the FEAST
bility of the matter. Mr.. Hazen, the
third acknowledgement, in q recent
interview declares the postage price
success, and says: "rhe demand for
two-cent stamps has been enormous.
The receipts from the sale OF stamps
this quarter will almost, II not quite,
equal those Of the same quarter last
year. The deficit on account of the re-
duction will be only about ten per cent,
or between four and five million dollars.
II was estimated that the reduction In
letter postage would result In q deficit
OF about 100000. This will be the
amount chargsble to that cause. The

FHE OHIO GREAsERs.

! The action yestsIdaY of the Demo
| c=atic caucus al Columbus, Ohio, shows
up the position Of that party ON the
questions of monopolics and civil SER
vice reform in Us true light II stands
as an open confession of the arranI by
pociisY with which it has been charged
by the Republicans, and leaves no
ground upon which u establish a re-
tiOnsl defense. The Ohio Democracy,
10 shelving Senator P,ndleIon and nom
insting IS his successor Henry b
Payne, proclaims Ia the world It's undY-
ing Geyotion to The principle announced
by Jackson, that to the viCt1rs belong
the spoils.D and its fierce resentment
against any and all notifications Of this
platform IL has not been
charged that Bic. Pendleion,
Ia All thIngs that 90 10 make up the
statesman has not sustained the credit Of
the great commonwealth OF Ohio IN the
national Legislature, and reflected lustre
upon her proud name. The very head
and front Of his offending was the intro
ductiOn IN congress of q bill fer the i'm
pEovement Of the civil service, which
eventually became . law. His olfense
against his party hath this extent, no
more But his Is a sin which cannot be
condoned. II trenches upon che cohesive
principle has held the Democratic
party together for twenty five long,
weary years, and substitutes standard
which thst party cannot. under existing
conditions hope to reach.
Mr.. Payne, who will succeed Mir. Pen
dletOn in the senate, possesses but one
qualification for the office-the ability
10 buy II. He has pass d the time of
life when men can make themselves
effective in public capacity, being at
least 80 years of age, and has none of
the experience in national affairs which
has rendered Mr.. Pendleton so valuable
to his state. He has been for years
Commanding factor in one of the most
extensive and oppressive mOnopOlies
which has ever been built up in this
country upon the ruins Of weaker com
peIitors, and the ''sinews of war" which
MIN az
fight were contributed by q corporation
whose greed is only exceeded
by ITS shameless audaciiy. The
selection of such man tears
the mask from the party which has been
charging the Republicans with being
the servants and tools of the mOnopolies,
and reveals the utter falsity of the pro-
fessions of the Democracy in this con-
necliOn.
The action of the party in Ohio was
prompted by the same base motives
which have inspired the organization
throughout the entire course of its pub
lie policy since the people hurled 1t
from power twenty five years ago and the
shameless bargain and sale which will
depose Mr.. Pendleton from his seat in
the senate and invests with that high
trust a man who purchases his way to
place for which he has no fitness, should
admonish the Republican partY-the
party of the people-that It's mission is
not vet ended. and that eternal vigilance
is the price Of liberty.
