~ Why should the Democrats of this
Senatorial District concede to Lucas county
one of the two Senatorial candidates? This
they have been doing year in and year out,
and in doing so have in fact given that coun-
ty the power to name both the candidates.
Reverse the order of things this year, and let
the outside counties with the assistance of
Lucas county make the nominations, and
may the best men win, regardless of location.
Conceed nothing, and the Democratic organi-
zation in the district, will be stronger for it.
Lucas county should enter the convention on
the same footing as the other counties.

Capt. Terry has shown us a copy Of
the Vicksburg Daily Citizen, of July I'd,
1868, printed during the seige Of that
city, and on poor quality of wall paper.
The rebel editor printed the following:
"On dH.--That the great Ulysus the
Yankee GeneralissimO, surnamed Grant
has expressed his intention Of dining
next Saturday at Vicksburg, and cele-
brating the 4th July, by grand dinner.
Ulysus must first get into the city be-
fore he dimes In it. The way to cook q
rabbit Is first to catch the rabbitnh
When Vicksburg surrendsfed the

the following added TO the above. under

ta~ There are Just 527 employees in the
Patent Office. About one-half of the places
are filled by men. In conversation with an
Enquirer representative Commissioner Mont
gomery said: "Of all the men employed in
this bureau who were here before Demo-
cratic President was elected do not believe
there are ten now who have the manliness to
admit they are Republicans"
This can be said in all other departments.
Men who year ago were most abusive Re
publicans are now the noisiest kind of Dem
ocrats, and are especially vindictive against
the few who are manly enough to stand
by their party. The departments are full
of these kinds of Democrats, and not a
few of them are from Ohio. Honest Dem
ocrats say that they would like to see the
sneaks in the Government service given the
bounce before the manly and out-and-out
Republican is disturbed.

The Cleveland Press has donned new
frock and put in fast new press. The pro-
prietors celebrated the event by extending
the newsboys of Cleveland fine entertain
ment in the shape of the production of Across
The Continent at the largest theatre in the
city and banquet at the press rooms. This
was a kind and generous act of the proprie-
tors. But they have their reward, as they
enjoy an immense circulation of their sprght-
ly little daily. Long may they live.
