Parliament reassembled on the 6th and
III the house of commons Bradlaugh again
appeared and attempted 10 take the oath.
He was rejected as usual the vote standing

favoriug the revision Of the oath required
of members.
In the house of lords the marquis Of
Salisbury. in moving the adjournment OF
the house. said that it would be convenient
TO explain the condition of one or two
important questions which greatly affected
1 foreign affairs and the position Of England.
The matter Of the gravest Importance. he
said. was the recent negotiation with
Russia in regard to the frontier OF
/ Afghanistan The business of the govern
ment was not now to consider or comment
on the past Ii was their business to take
the policy Of their predecessors aud to
conduct it TO an ISSUE consistent with the
public interest: but it was not their business
to enter into controversy regarding that
policy. It must be observed. be said, there
were very clear restrictions upon the action
Of the present government. arising from the
fact that they had assumed Office at a time
when certain matters were drawing near am
end. the result being that many pledges
were given, and the first duty Of any gov
eminent was to see that pledges which an
English government had given should be
observed So faras he had an opportunity
of Judging, the negotiations between Russia
and England had been conducted with an
earnest desire to arrive at an adequate
settlement but he was bound to say that
the negotiations had not gone far enough 70
enable him To speak positively. He must
ask their lordships not 10 attach too much
Importance to these negotiations as final
and conclusive, even when concluded. as
the whole condition Of affairs in Central
Asia was very unsatisfactory and uncer-
tain
The marquis then referred TO the domes
tic policy Of the government. He said II
was intended to avoid contentious le-isla-
ton and promote only such measures as
were necessary. These would include. per
haps, the vieeroy for Scotland bill He
would wind np the session at the earliest
day possible. and expressed the hope that
the gene. Il elections would be held on Nov.
Il. Lord Salisburv-s statement lasted half
an hour lie frequently emphasized tue
fact that the khedive had throughout been
loyal to England, The earl of Carnavon,
lord lieutenant of Ireland, gave statistics
of crime in Ireland nrecent year. showing
al enormous decrease since the passage Of
the crimes act. The government he said,
under existing circumstances, consider 1t
uuadvisable To renew the act. lie trusted
that "a firm admin -srrqtit,l Of .h, ordinary
law would maintain tranquility.

Democratic Candidate For Governe

Democratic Candidate For Governor
D, of Ohio.
The contest in Ohio ia the leading mat
ter Of interest in contemporary politics ct
the present time. Republicans and Dem
pcrats are apt to run a nip-and- tDck race
in the great State named, and naturally
their keen strife attracts great attention.
All eyes are directed towards competi-
ton the influence Of which will strongly sf-
feet the future Of national poltica.
Governor Hoady enters the lists with the
advantage of possession and the prestige of
having once defeated his competitor in the
race. He is well equipped fo- the struggle,
and is less likely to suffer from the pres
once of Il third party than Judge Foraker
1t is, however, by no means certain that
he will win. Both the great parties arc
doing their best to secure victory.
The Democratic candidate is native o..
Connecticut, born at New Haven in the
year 1896 After course of preparatory
suites at Cleveland, Ohio, he entered the
Western Reserve College at Hudson, in the
He then entered Cambridge Law School,
and after supplementary studies IN an Of
flee, was admitted to the. bar at Cincinnati,
in August, 1847. His marked success rs E
student of the law and IN practice led to
his election, in 1851, rs Judge OF the Su-
perior Court of Cincinnati. In 1865 he be-
came City Solicitor there, and two years
after took his seat as & Judge in the new
Superior Court. Between that date and
1866, whom he resigned his judgeship to re-
sumo practice, he twice declined the honor
ola sent on the Supreme Bench OF Ohio.
In 1894 he served il the Constitutional
Convention of that State.
At an early period il his political life
Judge Hoadly took sides with those who OPP
posed compulsory Bible reading in, the pub
lie schools. His earnest political prefer
ence was for the Democratic party, but he
sided with the Republicans on the slave
question and remained with them until the
close of President Grant's second term

and did his best to secure the election of
Tilden and Hendricks. In 1877 he was one
