provement Of this city is tho talk every
where. 1t gives the Detnocratsof Ham
ilton county special concern, aud many
OF the Democratic politicians declare
that tho Governor has gone out Of his
way to split the party wide open and
insure It's defeat. ....T They bitterly poin.
to the Governors suggestion that, after
the General Assembly shall have abol.
ished the Board, Reemelin, DORIAN and
Montgomery, the members whose resig.
nation he demanded, shall 20 before the
people and seek vindicaiion. This, the
Democratic leaders say, puts the party
in a hole. Reemelin, whom the Gov
ernor brands rs dishonest, Is out In q
letter denying the charge, accusing the
Governor Of gross ignorance or insane
ambition and expressing his willingness
to appear for trial on twenty. -four
hours notice before any tribunal the
Governor may select. He demands that
the Governor mike good his charges or
confess himself mistaken. Reemelin's
bold front does not deceive anybody.
The letter is characterized as a bluli.
There may be some trouble over three
OF the Hamilton county seats when the
General Assembly meets in special scs.
sion. Three OF tho members who voted
for the bill creating the Board Of Public
improvement hold salaried places under
the Board, and one OF them holds two
places. The Constitution Of Ohio pro.
vides that mo Senator or Representative
shall, during the time for which he shall
have been elected, be appointed to any
civil office under this State, which shall
have been created, or the enoluments
Of which shall have been increased dur.

WAsuIHGroN, Oct. Sat to.day's
session Of the Catholic Young Mems
National Union, Mr.. T. G. O'Sullivan
addressed the Union on the subject OF
"Dioceaean Unions" A notable passage
in his address was thus:
"Men say, without blush Of shame
for the fa)sehood, that We American.
Catholics are not loyal to our country
and National Government. Why, the
very mothers who taught our infant lips
to lisp the name OF God also taught us
to love our country, and while we love
and obey the one, we continue to show
our loyalty to the other. Men say that
should the Pope of Rome tell US to
overthrow the American Constitution
we should at least be compelled to
attempt its overthrow. Tell them 10 be
charitable. Tell them to DO reasonable.
Tell them that there is nothing in the
American Constitution repugnant to the
law OF God. That it is the sort OF q
constitution that men have the right ia
make and obey. Tell them that the
Pope never did have, has not today
and never will have the right to tell u.
to attempt it's destruction.
