General Hancock was not elected
President because the liberal, kind
hearted Christian gentlemen of the
Republican party induced the work,
ingmen to believe that if he WAS elect
ed wages would be low, shops would
shut down and labor be scarce, but
that if General Garfield was elected
labor would be plenty and wages
high, and there would be a sort of
millennium. The workingmen follow
ed the advice of those Christian
gentlemen, Garfield was elected, and
now shops in every quarter arc shut
ting down and there is heard on every
hand the cry of necessity for lower
wages. These are facts that speak
loudly in the discussion of the poll
teal issues of the day.

cert this can be done against all op-

The Cincinnati Iimes-Star, q
strong advocate of Arthur's nomina-
lion for tho Prosidnnnv hv h nnnn-
ing Republican National Convention
thus speaks of Elk Governor Foster:
Ex-Governor Foster, whose fame
for the most part rests upon his
generous treatment Of convicted
murders and burglars, has been ex-
pressing himself on the political stu
alton. He thinks "the time has come
for talk" 1t is Ex-G Governor Fosters
opinion That Arthur could not carry
Ohio; the chances are certainly slim
if Arthur would fail. But it is Just
probable that the late Governor is
prejudiced. 1t is probable that he
assumes to know more than he does
know. 1t is very clear that he has
no authority to speak for the Repub.
licans of Ohio. If he should assume
to speak as to the preference of the
criminal classes, his opinion might
be taken as authoritative. He has
won their gratitude and admiration
But in posing as the exponent of in
tilligent Republican sentiment, the
late Governor goes outside his juris'
diction.

A writer in the Chicago Tribune.
after carefully going over a mass of
statistics, comes to the conclusion
that the medical profession i'll this
country is overcrowded, and en-

from entering it. "There are now"
he says" 10000 physicians and sur
geons in this country, or one to every
500 Inhabitants. Indeed, every cross.
roads where a grocery or blacksmith
shop is located has also the shingle
of at least one medical practitioner,
and in most cases more than one"
This writer also recommends that
the requirements of every doctor
should be thoroughly testtd, and
greater stringency should be exer
cised over those medical schools
which give diplomas to those who
are not qualified for them.

No people are more reluctant to

have a grandly good county, and now
while we have q chance to double her
wealth in the next decade, do not act
foolishly. The G. V. W. & NJ. r. r. is
a tangible fact, it is on the ground,
not on paper or in the air. The peo-

Fred Douglass is a cunning and
thrifty old darkey of the New Or
leans molasses stripe. He was a
Marshall of the District of Columbia
for a term. He slid out of that into
the office of Recorder of Deeds for
the District, which he still holds, and
two of his three sons are holding
office under the government. He
didn't bleed for his country during
the war for the negro, but he is
bleeding his country's treasury with
ability and success.

The Republicans, before they re-
tired from Office at Columbus, took
great pains to publish and circulate
the statement that they only left
$4,000 deficiencies to DE made up by
the Democratic Legislature. But a
little investigation by the finance
committees ofthe two Houses, charg-
ed with making the necessary appro-
priations for the ensuing year, shows
that this claim was not well founded,
but that the deficiencies are liable to
run up to if, they do not exceed $780,,
900. But in spite of this immense
amount to be made good, there are
the best reasons for saying that
there will be a big reduction in the
appropriations this year, compared
with last, and n subsequent tighten
ing of taxation.

The Democratic caucus decided to
only rid the Scott bill Of the McCon
nellsville ordinance feature, and let
it stand as it is. We agree with the
Cleveland Plain Dealer that that
does not meet the great objection
that people find with the Scott law;
its injustice in compelling the poor
mar to pay the same tax on a small
business that a rich man pays on a
large business. That feature of the
Scott law is an injustice. 1t was 80
proclaimed throughout the length
and breadth of the state by the Dem
ocratic press and speakers in the
late campaign. 1t is a palpable, evil
dent injustice. 1t violates the essen
tial principle that enters into OF
should enter into all fair measures
of taxation, that the tax should be
proportional to the business or value
ofthe thing taxed. If the Democratic
party, after solemnly and distinctly
pledging itself to rectify this injus.
tice, and remove this most invidious
and hateful feature of the Scott law.
fails to do it and contents itself with
merely looping off the McConnells
vile ordinance, which is one of the
lesser evils of the bill, it will act in
bad faith and commit a most grievous
error.

1t is an unjust and unwise policy
to prodigally lavish on railroad cor
porations the public lands, the ben
eft of which should be enjoyed by
the people of this and future gener-
atoms. 1t becomes a corrupt policy
when the grants are made to and re-
tanned by railroads which have not
fulfilled, and probably never will
fulfill, the conditions by which they
are bound. These are not land grants.
They are land grabs.

Judge Geddes occupies a position
on the civil service question that
certainly meets the appreciation of
the Democracy. Here it is:
The government, while it is of the
people, is administered for them bv
agents or public servants. So long
as the country votes to retain the
Republican party in power, l inter
pret it as their will THAI they want
the Republicans who have served
them, to continue in office; and when
it votes to place the Democratic
party in power. l interpret that the
country would want its affairs admin
istered by Democratic agents or
public servants.

The reduction on letter postage,
which was made by the last Congress,
WAS expected to some deficit
for a year or two at least. The hope
was that the more free use Of the
postal facilities by the people would
in a few years a sufficient in
crease of revenue to compensate for
the reduction in rate. But the re
turns for the quarter ending Deem
Der 81, indicate that the increase is
coming much sooner THAI was ex-
pected. In spite of the reduction in
rate, the revenue was $685. 76 for
the quarter--only $1S3,S 54, or 1.3
per cent, less than for the CORES
