Ohio.

Since our last issue the State elec
tion has boen held in Ohio, and tht
result was Republican victory by {
plurality Of over 1900 votes. I
this were the presidential year, this
defeat Of the Democratic party would
be Of some significance, as indicating
the popularity or unpopularity Of
President Cleveland's g administration
As it is, however, the off year in poll
tics. Ohio has simply returned to the
mire Of republicanism. And now that
this agony is over, all eyes are direct
ed toNew York; and upon the pros
peets there, the New York Sun speaks
as follows:
"Now that the Ohio election is over
and it's effect upon the minds OF our
citisens has been produced, we are oil
prepared 10 take a distinct and salts
factory view,o of the prospect here in
New York.
"We know that the Democratic
ticket headed by Hill and Jones ought
10 be elected, and we believe that it
will be. The reasons for this faith
are simple and cogent.
1.-THE Democracy of this State is
thoroughly united. There is no fac
ticus quarrel which diminishes the
Democratic vote. That vast number
Of citizens who last fall voted for
Blaine, have come back, and are
among the most enthusiastic support
crs of Hill and Jones. This is q fact
of the highest moment.
Moreover. great service has been
rendered to Governor Hill by the st.
tacks which his enemies have now
made. They have, accused him of
having had discreditable dealings
with Mr.. Tweed some fifteen years
ago, and a great display of Elusive
evidence has been made to sustain this
accusation. Only yesterday mum.
Der of journals that oppose his elec.
tion devoted great portion of their
space to. fac SMILES Of checks and re
ceipts which are supposed to support
it. A more extravagant, malicious,
and nnjusti6able assault was new r
made upon the good name of a public
officer. There is nothing in Mr.. Hills
history, either fifteen years ago or
since, which should lead any patriotic |
citizen to withhold HE friendship |
from him. There were many men,
Republicans as we'll as we'll as Demo.
crats. whom, in the days of his power,
Mr.. Tweed was wont to use for his
own purposes; but henever used Mr..
Hill. As a member of the Democrat
ic party Hill supported those meas
ures which the party deemed wise
and necessary and among them there
were at times measures which Mr..
Tweed favored and desired; bnt in
all of these cases there is not single
instance in which Mr.. Hill acted from
a corrupt motive, or supported any
measure Of Tweed's for any other rea-
son than his own conviction that it
was for the public interest. This is
demonstrated By careful study Of
his whole record and the people who
really look into these things are sure
to be convinced of it. The reaction
from this attempt Of his enemies will
undoubtedly prove Of very great ad.
to Mr. Hill. In fact, itforms
one of the reasons why we expect his
slection." |

1t Might Have Been.

Time and again, have. readers read
Of the sadness of the above words.
They may be used in the future In
alludeing to the need of a wagon bridge
across the river al this place, for the
Police Jury have met and passed upon
the granting of the ferry privileges to
the railroad company, in which case
the company were to arrange its bridge
for use as toll bridge.
Instead Of granting the privileges
this aud nothing more,-the p. j.,
"whereases," and "resolves" to grant
etc., If the company will pay the par
ish, payable quarterly, $500 or 10 per
cent OF the gross receipts arising from
tolls.
This the P. j., would do, If, again,
the City of Monroe would pay to the
President of the P.J. certain sum,
to be fixed, for the use of the ferry
since the date of the last Injunction Ia
the ferry fight. This, too, is on con-
dltion that the city pay all cost, with
4
out delay, In the case now in court
the controversy being about the owner
ship Of the ferry privileges.
II is our understanding that, after
being appraised. Of the Police Jury's
action, Supt. Belknap, "laid the mat
ter ON the table," and dismissed fur
Their negotiations for toll bridge,
together with many fond hopes, sine
die, instead Of returning to our city TO
20 consumate the project.
II seems that the efforts Of the citi-
sens OF Monroe 10 open a.market to
tho residents on the west of the Qua
chita, will have to be abandoned, I'M
less they can tunnel out beyond the
western boundary OF the parish.
