on Joint Ballot i'm the Legislature.
Special Dispatch TO THE EVENING STAR.
COLUMBUS, OHIO, October 19.-The Franklin
county canvassing board resumed the count OF
the votes cast last Tuesday this morning. No
other clerical or technical errors Were discov-
cred. The case was argued by the attorneys of
both parties and the board then decided, by a
vote of two to three, that there was nothing in
the errors, which were clerical, that could in
any way disfranchise the voters OF the fourth
and thirteenth wards. The wards and precincts
were then called and the vote announced.
The decision arrived at by the board makes the
result what the face of the returns show and
what was claimed by the republicans on We'd
nesday morning last. The result as at last an
nounced elects two republican representatives
and the entire republican county ticket, with
the single exception OF Wall for county COM
missioner. The democrats elect one Legislative
candidate.
Sherman's Friends Confident.
The result i'm Hamilton county, the republi-
cans claim, can in no way affect The return OF
John Sherman to the Senate. Should the DEM
ocrats secure the entire delegation. the re-
publicans will have, they insist, a majority OF
four on joint ballot.

had Made Worse,

The protest of the Federation of Trades
and Labor Unions which we print this
morning is adocumcnt that cannot be read
too carefully or circulated too widely.
Although the present administration is
yet in its adolescence II has lived long
enough to show where it stands on ques-
tions affecting the interests of labor. 1t
has dealt heavy blows on American industry
in its assault on shipbuilding and In the
encouragement it has given to free trade
tariff tinkcring.
But the most offensive and most indg-
nantly resented Of its attacks on the free
labor Of the United States was the delib-
crate decision, mGdei in spite Of protest and
after several days deliberation, to let a
contract based on convict labor
Mr. Secretary Manning, in his letter to
the Federation of Labor, says that, in letting
that contract, "the department was gov
crned solely by the bids, having in view
the greatest economy But why did not
the department take public policy into con-
sideration?
After the bids had been opened and
after Straub S Co. had filed their protest
against letting out work to be performed
hy prisoners, whose labor is sold by the
state at sixty cents day, and while the
solicitor of the treasury had the subject
under consideration, THE REPUBLICAN, took
pains to point out the only proper course
for the department to pursue-to reject
the bid Of the prison labor contractors on
the broad, high, solid ground of public
policy.
In spite Of protest, explanation, and ar
gumcnt, and for no other reason than
economy" the prison labor contractors
got the job-not heavy contract, to be
sure, but involving the same principle as it
would If 1t amounted to millions. 1t is just
as much murder to kill a midget as giant.
Beyond this question Of saving by the
chcapness Of convict labor, Mr., Manning
says "there was no thought of defining the
policy Of the government No thought
"beyOudn that? Was not that far enough {?
The economy argument will be Just as
strong in the future as it was when, shay
ing in view the greatest economy" the
Peoria contract was given out.
Mr., Manning's letter has made q very
bad matter good deal worse.
