THE OHIO DEFEAT.

The republicans made desperate
effort to carry Ohio. They spent hun
dreds of thousands of dollars on the
election and won by ten thousand ma
Jority. Every vote that constitutes
this majority cost them one hundred
dollars, and yet republicans pretend to
be happy, which they ought to be at
not being absolutely beaten in the
contest. AS it is, their majority is
nearly an evidence of growing weak
ness. An examination of majorities,
cast in Ohio since 1856, proves this
Here is the record:

AT recent congress at the Hague
NJ. RUNNER, who has made special
ty of the subject, discussed the subject
of drunkenness and prohibition. He
presented maps of various countries,
so colored that the proportion of
drunkards to public houses could he
seen at a glance. In Switzerland,
Holland and elsewhere, he arrived at
the conclusion that the larger the
number of beer and wine cabarets the
fewer the drunkards. He then d.
rected his attention to the state of
Maine, and declared that there, where
all public houses are prohibited, there
is more drunkenness than in any
other part of the United States. Ed
ucation, M. RUNNER contended, is the
only remedy for alcoholism.

TIE canadians are contempIatipr

THE Canadians are contemplating
some grand railway schemes. Not
only are they preparing to build a
road to Hudson'S bay, which will
make the distance between Manitoba
and Liverpool three days shorter than
by way of New York, but they are
looking to the West for Similar
shortening of the distance between
the Pacific coast and Japan. 1t is pro-
posed, when the Canadian Pacific
railway shall be completed, to put on
a line of steamers between Victoria
in British Columbia, and Japan and
China, to run in connection with the
road. 1t is said the route between
Ottawa and Japan will be ten days
shorter than between New York and
Japan via San Francisco.

THE arrest of Judge Glasscock on
the charge of drunkenness will act as
boomerang against his opponents
who undoubtedly concocted the dia-

was brought before the mayor of
Georgetown, and not particle of evil

the least degree the charge.

increase for the year was $13,O00,OOO in

more than sufficient to meet the legitl-

Mrs. LOCKWOOD is very jolly
presidential candidate, She has told a
reporter that she is working heart and
soul for her great cause, though she
does not expect to be elected. But she
gets letters of encouragement from all
quarters. One tells her that she can
carry Mississippi, and another that
half of Illinois is sure for her. Like
all candid candidates, she says, "we, of
course, claim everything with conf
dence." If she he not elected president
this year she is at least certain that
she and her party will surprise the
country in 1886. Belva is certainly a
CHEEKY, talkalive candidate.

vote, 724, 1857; republican majority oyer

tween Hoadly and Foraker was in
1858. That year the democratic vote
was S09.693; republican, 347.164; pro-
hibitlon, 1862. In this election there
was no question of federal nature

HAD TO GIVE UP HIS PET SCHEME.

Blaine has been appealing to the
working people not to be deluded as TO
the issue. He announces that the
controlling question of the campaign
is, shall American labor be protect
ed?" 1t is the issao al..cl every de-
mocrat should accept, to fight vigor-
ously on that line from now until the
election is over. Not long ago the
republican leaders started with
the idea that foreign policies, for
which Mr.. Blaine had made himsef
noted would be the strong card in this
canvass. Seeing this was a looslng
issue they fell back to protection, where
democracy had in reality driven them.
Nobody feels the least anxiety as to
what foreign policies would be
under democratic administration.
The democratic party has always
maintained brilliant and winning
foreign policy, while that of the re-
publican party has been degrading
and losing in its nature. Whatt yer
else may be said of the democratic
party by its enemies. none can attack
its foreign policy; it has always been
firm, honorable and dignified. 1t has
maintained the honor of our govern
ment and protected the rights of
American citizens. In the event of
Mr.. Cleyeland's election it is thought
that international relations will be
entrusted to the wisdom of Mr.. Bay
ard. whose craftsmanship all admit to
be of the very highest order. During
Mr.. Blaine's brief career in the state

luton was affected in the foreign
policy of the government. a foolish
question was raised with England in
