OHIO ARITHMETIC.

England anG Ohio can stir up more poll
tics TO the square inch than any other two
sections Of the whole moral vineyard. Both
have adopted IGNATIUs DoSNELLY's sys-
TEN of agriculture and have gone to raising
sheol for the wholesale market Although
competition in this species Of industry is
sharp between the two. il is apparent that
Ohio takes the lead. The advantage that
Ohio has is in the great mathematical head
of its lieutenant governor. England is q
great country, and has produced some men
of wondrous talent and learning. But it
has never produced mathematical prodigy
like the presiding officer Of the Ohio state
senate, who figures out that seventeen is a
majority of thirty-seven. The world will
be very old when such another mathemat-
ical statesman comes TO the surface, and it
will be still older when such another set Of
political scoundrels are cOngregated together
as are now found in the halls of the Ohio
legislature.
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1886-01-28

Turks. But as GLADSTONE is broader
man than SALISBURY, and is likely
to take a more comprehensive view
of the question and more apt to
study it in the light Of principle than
mere selfish considerations he will be con-
WINGED that the cause Of human freedom
and an enlightened civilization viii be bet
ter served by reversing the policy OF the
present administration and to lend a help
ing hand to Greece. If GLADSTONE has
the moral courage to carry out his cOnvic-
tons and secure permanent home rule to
Ireland, and bring about the extinction of
Turkey and its obliteration from the map
of nations. he will have achieved fame
that will live when all of Britain's mon
archs are forgotten.

CONFERRING CATTLEMEN.

The stock-grOwers of the Northwest will
note, with more than ordinary interest, the
proceedings of the cattle convention now
in session at Denver, Col. 1t was called
for the purpose of giving those who are
engaged iii the cattle business on the West
ern ranges an opportunity to consider
questions that have arisen in the develop
ment of their business Of using the free
ranges of the West in the production of
beef, and not to give attention to ques-
lions that have seemed so important
TO Eastern breeders and fee
ers, and which have been fully
discussed at the Chicago and st. Louis
meetings. Invitations to the convention
have been extensively issued throughout the
range districts of the United States, British
possessions and Mexico. and the assemblage
is undoubtedly as notable as the dispatches
would indicate. Aside from the question
of more fully controlling the movement OF
cattle from the Southern ranges of Texas
to the Northern cattle districts, the confer.
