case and want nothing TO do with it.

1t will surprise some people to know that
the GInbe-DemOcrdt, Of St. Louis, is giving
strong support to the republican anti-saloOn
movement 1t declares that 1T is notorious
that the liquor dealers are organized all over
the country for the protection Of their busi-
ness, not against prohibition merely, but
against all forms of temperance legislation;
and il is the right. as it is the duty. of all
good citizens TO combine in opposition to
this crusade. The republican party is bound
by its professions and traditions TO resist an
undertaking designed TO strengthen and
promote an interest which is recognized
everywhere as the persistent enemy of the
moral safety and welfare of society" If
the whisky men persist in their attempts
to control politics in the interest of their
dstiilerieS and saloons. they will do them
selves more harm than can ever be devised
and executed by their opponents.

We suppose it will be admitted that the
subject of skinning dead convicts in the
penitentiary has been about exhausted as a
topic of craftsmanship. Neither party in
Ohio would probably care TO incorporate
the pro and con Of it in its formal platform.

The Democrats are making special effort
to re-elect Judge Follett. of the supreme
court He is the judge that last fall held
that fraud and forgery cannot be eliminated
from election returns, and by his decision
says that one skillful forger can disfranchise
thousands of honest voters even though his
crime be detected. 1t would seem to most
people that the fewer judges of this stripe we
keepon the supreme bench in Ohio, the bet
ter will be the reputation Of our state, and
the higher will be the respect Of the people

General Robinson. Soldier Record

Although he seldom refers to his service
for his country, Gen. James S. Robinson was
one Of the brayest boys in blue who went
forth into his country's service in the dark
days OF civil war. At the outbreak of the
rebellion he enlisted in Company G, Fourth
Ohio volunteer infantry. He soon rose from
the ranks being first promoted to captain,
next TO be major OF the Eighty-second Ohio
volunteers. and to be lieutenant colonel IN
April, 1862. On August -, 1868, he was
made colonel, and on December IL, 1884 was
brevetted brigadier general The following
month he was appointed brissdier general
and the next May was made brevet major
general Among the many hard fought bat
ties in which he was engaged were Rich
Mountain, Chsncellorsvale, Dallas, New
Hope Church, Bentonville, Second Bull Run
and Gettysburg, where he received severe
wound in the left side, from which he still
suffers The Ohio voters will remember
Gen. Robinson at the polls in November.
