OHIO STATESMEN.

Ohio is a great State and of late has
been disposed to supercede Virginia, as
the mother of Presidents. Every Ohioan
who has not left the State is statesman
and aspires to the Presidency or the
Legislature. Some of those who succeeded
in their aspirations by being elected to
the Senate conceived the idea of increas.
ing their salaries by means not wholly
original with Ohio Statesmen. They in
PRODUCED bill to prohibit the sale of any
beef that had not been inspected in Ohio
1t was known that the passage of this
bill would injure the business of Chicago
beef packers, to the extent of hundreds
of thousands of dollars, and three of them
were sent to Chicago as = special commit.
tee to look over the stock yards in that
city. The charge is now made that this
committee proposed to Armour & Co.,
and other beef packers to kill the bill for
a consideration. 1t is alleged that the
proposal was made to the attorney of Ar
mour & Co., who referred them to the
superintendent, who it ia said, informed
them.that he did not propose to spend
any more money in that way. As an in
ducement to him to look more
favorably upon the proposition, they re.
duced the price one.half, but the super
intendent was memorable, and the Ohio
statesmen returned home disappointed.
Other Ohio statesmen, who are members
Of the Legislature, but not of the ring
heard of the proposal made the packers,
and their indignation rose to fever heat,
and they propose to reduce the number
Of Ohio Presidential aspirants at once, by
ordering an investigation, which it is be-
lieved, if fairly conducted, will not only
end the political career of the senators
who went to Chicago, but of several
sthers, who were supposed to be leagued
with them. Theionly difficulty appre-
hended by those who are forcing the in
vestigation is that moro than quorum of
the members may be in the ring, in which
event the implicated senators will be
whitewashed however strong the evidence
may be against them.

SURPRISING IGNORANCE.

General Powning would like to see the
resolutions adopted by the Democratic
State Central Committee published, be-
cause he is anxious to know what they
say about silver, wool and other Nevada
products. The SILVER STATE is some
what surprised at the ignorance displayed
by the General. As a newspaper man he
ought to know that Central Committees
are not authorized to adopt resolutions
defining the policy of the party which
