SITUATION ACROSS THE RIVER.

The campaign in Ohio from the DEM
oeratic side began yesterday. Hence
forth until the election 1t will be bat
Ito royal. The Democracy OF Ohio
have not been idle, although seemingly
so. They have been quietly doing etrec-
tive work in periecting their Organiza-
ton and completing arrangements for
public speaking everywhere. From
now on the aggressive side Of the fight
will be with the Democrats.
Already it is learned from the best OF
sources that the three weeks Of prelim-
mary campaigning by the Republicans
has not met the leaders expectations.
Although the Republican press have re-
ported large and enthusiastic meetings,
the fact is their preliminary work in ex-
planning the benefits of increased fed
eral taxation has been very tiresome on
MAJOR MCKINLEY and fatiguing to the
people Of the State. As a consequence
the Major naturally desires to place In
the background his tariff bantling and
discuss side issues; such as free
coinage, on which the voters OF
both parties are about equally divided
But the people will not have it. 1t is
tariff or nothing. They insist that the
daddy of the Mckinley bill explain
wherein they are to be benefited by
piling additional taxation upon them
selves. 1t is the old story Of trying to
raise oneself by his boot straps. Taxing
oneself to enrich himself becomes hard
er to understand the more it Is explain
ed, and herein is where the gallant
Major is losing his grip. The more he
talks upon the benefcent features Of
his bill the more dubious become his
hearers.

ANorHER THRoUaH LINE.

The announcement that the Ohio
River Railroad Company has purchased
the c. P. HUNTINGTON lines in Ken
lucky, including the Newport News and
Mississippi Valley, eastern division, and
the Kentucky and South Atlantic, and
Ohio and Big Sandy roads, thus opening
up a continuous through line from
Wheeling to Louisville, KY, and thence
to the South and Southwest, is Of
the utmost Importance to the
city of Wheeling, and the river
counties of West Virginia. 1t
also, incidentally, means great deal
to the Wheeling Terminal Railway Com
pany, with which the Ohio River road
has connections.
There are great possibilities in this
new through line, and the management
OF the Ohio River Company can be re-
lied upon to make the most Of the
situation.

Martin Thornton's Long and Successful
Career as Hotel Proprietor.

Career as a Hotel Proprietor.
Yesterday marked the eighteenth an
niversary of Martin Thornton's opening
up of the hotel and restaurant business
in this city. The recently constructed
annex gives the hotel n metropolitan
appearance, and indicates substantial
prosperity. On the 18th OF September,
1873, Mr.. Thornton came to this city
from Louisville, KY, and opened small
restaurant on Market street, where Hib-
herds plumbing establishment Is now
located. He was successful from the
start, and was soon forced to remove TO
larger quarters further up the street,
locating north Of Twelfth street. Again
forced to remove by reason Of growing
trade, he located at No. 1926 Market
street, where he remained seven years.
Business continued to increase and he
purchased the splendid Brunswick
Hotel and restaurant, where he has
done business for the past four years,
enjoying an ever increasing patronage.
The success of Mr.. Thornton may be at
tributed In measure TO the reasonable
charges which have always prevailed.
He was the pioneer of low prices in the
restaurant business in this city, and has
never varied or deviated therefrom, no
matter what the condition of the mar
ketS. The table has been we'll kept up
at all seasons, and In addition to the
regular board Mr.. Thornton has de-
lighted many parties at special ban
DUETS. The Hotel Brunswick is CEN
trally located, and all travellers in quest
of accommodations in this line should
call.

FROM an article in another column,
the great developer, the railroad, is busy
perfecting the internal system Of the
State. In two or three years hence,
with more railroads and closer competi-
ton, we can hope to reach the capital
of the State in a seven hours run.
Wheeling people ought to do now, but
instead it takes from twelve to fifteen
hours. Why? Just because the rail
roads don't have to do it. See?

THE New York Democratic platform
on national issues is a corker, to use
Slang but very expressive term. 1t is
concise and TO the point; it is all that
any Democrat could wish. The national
platforms Of 81 and IS, which received
a majority of the peoples votes, are rati-
fed and made the text upon which the
fight shall be waged again. But the
impregnable position which the party
takes upon the silver question is what
will arrest most attention and commend
II to the people generally. 1t strikes a
sympathetic and responsive chord
among all lovers OF q bimetallic system,
that shall place gold aud silver on the
basis Of equality, aud shear the gold
bugs OF their power to Increase thevalue
Of one coin at the expense Of the other.
Although published yesterday in the
regular proceedings Of the convention,
the document, so far as it refers TO the
national principles, is reproduced for

rue UN-AMERICAN TARIFF.


An investigation of the present tariff
disclOSes the fact that we have not
legislated in the interest Of America,
but in the interest of aliens. We hear
much vain glorious Wanting of the
american" system Of protection. 1t
is not American at all. We inherited it
from England when we were her colo
MES. 1t is English, and obsolete Eng
lish ut that, for England outgrew it,
and passed beyond ii long ago. Ever
since that day she has held the manu-
featuring supremacy of the world. The
so-called American System" is in fact
exactly like the Mercantile System Of
the middle ages. The sooner we get rid
OF IL and rise to genuine AmericaniSm,
which means a willingness TO rely upon
ourselves, and meet the world on equal
terms, the better It will be.
The FARMER Is OPPRESSED.
Especially is the farmer-the Ameri-
can farmer-imposed upon by the tariff.
This only results from the Increase In
goods he must buy, and through dis
ordinations against him in favor OF for
eign purchasers of our manufacture.
