The Ohio Blunder.

From the Philadelphia Ledger, Republican.
1t is a common mistake for party platform
makers to drag into their declarations of
principle matters and things on which voters
are not called upon to express any opinion,
thus avoiding an issue or raising false one
as the case may be. Those who made the
platform for Ohio's Republican Convention
have done this as to two subjects, both of
which ought to have been ruled out as dan
gerous. The party is made to declare in favor
of the Just and liberal policy of the Pension
Bureau, which, if it means anything, is an
endorsement Of the policy of granting doubt.
ful claims against the Government, and also
to recommend the passage of a service pen
sion bill to give pensions to all soldiers and
sailors, whether they need help or not, and
whether they suffered injury or not. That is
a dangerous declaration as matter OF poll
tics; for while the people are undoubtedly in
favor of liberal pensions to the deserving,
there is growing feeling against the abuses
of the pension system, which these resolu-
tons endorse. Another mistake was the
passage of resolution plainly intended as a
vote catcher, endorsing President Harrisonis
selection for honorable position in the
diplomatic service of worthy and representa-
tive Irish American citizens" This can
only refer to one appointment, about the
wisdom of which there is still dispute. But
admitting it to be entirely proper, why should
Ohio Republicans approve the appointment
of Irish Americans, and say nothing about
German Americans, Italian Americans, or
Americans pure and simple? The Conyen-
ton simply went out of its way to commit
binder
