The Ohio Campaign.

The contest In Ohio for Governor next
fall will assume national proportions
and absorb attention in every State 6f
the Union. Gov. Campbell will very
likely be put in nomination by the De
mocracy for re election, and Hon. VIM.
Mckinley will be the Republican candi
date in all probability. Gov. Campbell
will meet with opposition in his own
party in Cincinnati, whers he let his
official hand fall heavily upon the cor
rupt boards of his own party, but the
rural districts will give him a very earn
esp and aggressive support Maj. Nc
Kinley will go into the fight, if he should
be the nominee, with united party,
and the tariff question will be the prom
inent, if not the controlling issue. The
tial timber in their favorite, and for that
reasGn the campaign will be of national
concern, apart from the tariff question
If Campbell should pa reelected, Of
which there is not much probability, as
Ohio is Republican State, he will be H
formidable candidate before the national
convention of thr Democracy, and if
Mckinley should poll all Old time Re
publican majority, he will be pressed
before the Republican national cOnyen-
ton. They are both able aud clean
men, and unusually popular. 1t would
ba an exciting and important cam
paign should thFsp two men be the can
didates of their respecting paftlFs in
Ohio for Governor the coming fall.

Tho Charter Tax.

The constitutionality of the Lag 81
charters granted by Circuit Courts is to
be tested before the Supreme Court of
the State. The tax, as now required by
the Secretary of State, is adverse to Il
fair construction of the statute under
which it is imposed, to say nothing of
it's constitBtjo nality. 1t is wrong in
principle and wrong liz policy: and we
have no doubt the Supreme Court will
so decide. The case made up is stated
i'm the State as follows:
HiFha Combined Saw and Planer Com
pany of Alexandria asks the Court of
Appeals TO grant p Mandamns to compel
Secretary OF Commons ealth II. w. Flour
nov TO record the ehaPfes o. that compa-
ny. This notice was served on the seele-
tary this afternoon. 1t sets forth that
this company obtained charter from the
Corporation of alexandria on or about
Jan B. 1891 Their capital stock is fixed
at ~ 900, 900. the tax upon which is $500.
Before tho Secretary can record this
charter the law requires that the corpo-
rators, or some one acting tar them, shall
produce the Auditors certificate Gbat
the tax has been paid into his office.
This the petitioners refused to do, alleg~
ing that the law imposing it is unconsti
tutional. If the case is carried to the
court the whole merits of the legal ques-
tions involved will be discussed"

Gov. Northern, of Georgia, elected by

a reception to Jay Gould and Il number

Tuesday, and was attended by many

answered with y complete report of all
the proceedings Ut that Instructive insti
tute. Ali that need be written is,
please send me the report of Chats

of these reports have been printed by
order of the State Board of Agriculture,
for free distribution among the farmers
Of the State.
The report contains seFenty pages Of
interesting and Yaluablf information for
farmers It is composed chiefly of ad

knowledge and experience. The address
upon dairying was delivered by Hon f.
Danforth Curtis, a professor in the agri-

the State. knowledge gainnd from books

knowledge if it comes from practical men
and is put to use in a practical way. AT

turns for labor put forth ought therefore
to be SECURED by the anplication Of all
agricultural knowledge within reach.
