Ben Eggleston Brings Ont General Jacob
ID. Cox for Governor.
The Union State Convention for 1885 met
in Columbus on the 2lst of June. The con-
vention assembled in the Atheneum, and
was presided over temporarily by Gem
eral w. B. Woods, who accepted the ap-
pointment in neat little speech. After
the usual committees had been an
nounced, the convention took a recess till
2 p. m.
On reassembling it was announced to
the convention that General Woods had
been made its permanent Chairman. The
nomination for Governor being in order,

applause, and on motion of General

for Governor by acclamatian. A. G. Nc

Judge for the short term, and VIM. H.

eral.
GENERAL GRANTS FATHER.
At this stage of the proceedings the
father of General Grant, who had made
the trip from Covington, KY, to be pres
ent on the occasion, was introduced to
the Convention, and the old man was
received with the most crazy and un-
heard-of demonstrations of applause.
When order had once more been re-
stored, Captain John A. Norris was NOM
mated ON the first ballot for School Com
missioner, and Captain Rodney Foos was
Clerk of the Supreme Court. James
Moore was then nominated by accla ma
ton for Board of Public Works.
The report of the Committee on Reso-
lutions was then read by William M.

which would have made his majority
about equal with that of Herring, which
was little over 1,700.
George Weimer, the Dem ocratic candi-
date for Treasurer of State, contested the
election of Mr.. Welsh, but did not sue

The Legislature elected at this election
was Democratic by a considerable major

after which Judge Brinkerhoff presented
the report of the Committee on Resolu-
tions. Frederick Hassaurek, of Cincfn-
natl. being loudly called for, responded
in long and very able speech on the
questions presented to the party in the
reconstruction of the rebellious States. A
tremendous ratification meeting was held
in the evening at the west front of the
State House, which was addressed by
Judge Dickson, r. w. Clark, NJ. P. Cad
dis and General J. D. Cox.

The Democracy Captures Thirteen Out of
Twenty Congressmen.
On the 18th day of January, 1874, the
Legislature elected in October, 1873, re-
elected Allen G. Thurman to the United

casting their votes for Governor Noyes,
with the exception of one vote for ]. D.

In this year Charles Foster made his
debut in State politics by being selected

a member of Congress then in his second
term. He acquitted himself quite well,
however, as Chairman. The Ohio State
Journal went into ecstasies over him,

which was handsomely done in the cleo
ton of Republican Legislature. by
which the Fifteenth Amendment had to
be considered and passed upon; but this
will account for the comparatively tight
shave the Republicans had in getting
through with their State ticket.

In looking over the history of the
Union party it will be observed that the
people did not worship at the shrine any
one favorite very long, and the conven-
tion of '63 laid David Tod aside just as
they had laid aside Williamson in '6I and
taken up Tod. A General in the army
was a great fayorite one day, to be dis
placed in the affections of this excited
people by somebody else theNeIt day.

The Republican party of Ohio again
met in State Convention on the second
day of June, 1875, and Notwithstanding
the disasters of the previous two years it's
leaders came up with vim and deter
miTation which augured well. Captain
Danford, of Belmont County, was tenn

1867.

A Year IN which the Parcy NarrOWly E6-
capped Total Defeat.
We now come to the year 1867, when
the party narrowly escaped total defeat
in the State; as it was, the Union or Re-
publican party sustained partial defeat,
Notwithstanding the sweeping victory
just one year before. This was caused
principally by the fact that the question
of unlimited negro suffrage was presented
to the people for the first time in that
campaign. The people had not yet been
educated up to that point, and many Re-
pqblicans who supported the proposition
did so with good deal Of reluctance. A
sufficient time since the abolition. of slav-
cry had not elapsed to do away with old
prejudices; but the party of freedom and
equal rights met the question, as it has
met all new questions, with a nerve and
determination that seemed to say, "We1l
fight it out on this line, come what may"
In this irst fight they lost the Legisla-
ture, and, consequently, United States
Senator, but thev stood by their guns and
continued to hold the field.
TITLE ABANDONED.
At this stage in many counties in the
State the name of Union party had been
abandoned and the original name of Re-
publican taken up again; but the State
conventions were still called under the
head of Union conventions. Many Union
Democrats, however, had gone back to
their first love, and were now in the
ranks of their old party. Of course, the
question of negro suffrage afforded them
good excuse for the change.
The State Convention for 1867 met on
the 18th day of June of that year, and
General Robert c. Schenol5 was called to
the chair temporarily, making a we'll
timed speech on taking the chair. After
the usual business of a temporary organ
ization had been transacted, the conven-
ton adjourned to 2 o'clock p. M, and on
reassembling General Schenck was an
nounced as the permanent Chairman
also.
After the reports of committees the
convention Immediately proceeded to
the nomination of a candidate for Gov
ernor. The Hamilton County people had
come up determined to nominate
GENERAL R. B. HAYES,
Who was then member of Congress from
one OF Lno1r OlSGrIcLS, more because LnSy
wanted his place for some other assum-
ing gentleman than for any other reason.
General Ben Cowen, now Clerk of the
United States District Court for the
Southern District of Ohio, was the most
prominent opponent of Hayes, but be-
fore the conclusion of the first ballot his
friends discovered that he could not
make it and withdrew his name. The
principal part of Governs vote then
changed to Samuel Galloway, but Hayes
had the bulge on him, and Sam failed to
catch him on the home stretch. AS l
heard an old politician once say, Hayes
luck would beat the devil.
After the nomination of Hayes for
Governor, Mr.. Galloway was nominated
for Observation-Disclosures. When in
formed of his nomination, Sam said he
did not feel prepared to accept it, but,
with the permission of the convention,
he would take the matter under advise
ment.

First, make the corr very warm, either
by hot water or other heat. and also
heat The tar quite no, and turn it wei

other such substance, should be mixed
with lt-enough so that the grains will

The Memphis 1rdldpcbc Of June com
ments on a special dispatch received from
Fulton, Ky., which gives an account OF the
killing OF one j, 7. Lyle by w. W.
Meacbam. II was the regulation Kentucky
homicide, There was brief dispute about
rent bill of $50, and then Moacham drew
his revolver aud shot Lyle "twlce in the
face and three times In the backn Meacham
"thinks he was iustflable,n but the facts as
reported show no serious provocation. The
three shots in the back indicate that the
victim tried to run away. The 1ralanchc
says:
The Dispatch goes on to say that the occur.
ence created very deep regret I'm the com-
munity, "and there are many who are sad
dencd over this untimely misfortune" Over
whose msfortune2 One would suppose over
the murdered mans misfortune But no. The
regret and the sadness were all on account of
the homicide, who, we are told had young
wife. There is not word of sympathy or re-
gret for the murdered man. He Is not mem
toned after the killing Mt ALL There is no in
formation given Of his personality, his family,
or connections. The homicide alone Is the
object. of commiseratlon. His friends admit
that he had one weakness-a hasty temper
"as shown in this nction;" otherwise he would
be n model" He was SO unfortunate rs to
shoot man twice in the face aud three times
in the back as a result of his one weakness.
He is therefore an object of deep commiser-
alton TO his fellow citizens We presume on
account Of the temporary inconvenionoe of
having 10 appear in u magistrates court and
the consequent shock to his young wife. This
discounts rufianism in the mining regions as
portrayed by Mark Twain.
Next to Mississippi the state Of Kentucky
is the most disgraceful member Of the Union

A CALIFORNIA paper publishes an esti-
mate Of the wheat crop of that state shortly
to be harvested, which places the product
at nearly &C, 100000 bushels. The yield OF
barley is estimated at nearly 39,OOo,O 900
bushels. These look like large figures, but
the San Francisco Chronicle says they are
doubtless not far out of the way, as they
corroborate the careful reports, based upon
increased acreage, made in the spring by
that journal. The Chronicle thinks the
probability is that California will be the
banner cereal producing state this year.
