WALTER B. RITCHIE, of Lima, the
close friend of Cal Brice's and at the
same time prospective candidate for
Governor, says that the next campaign
in Ohio will be fought on State issues.
1t would appear from this that in Cal
Brice's opinion it is not safe to risk an
other battle on the tariff.

THE person who can see nothing to
revere and respect in the character of
James G. Blaine are the English, the
American mugwumps, who are cousins
to the English, and little, vindictive,
shrivelled souled Democrats.

NINETY-Two years ago the Irish people
lost their Parliament and were degraded
from the standing of nation into that
of province. A Parliament assem-
bled at Westminster, Tuesday, in which
a majority, under the leadership of Glad
stone, propose to restore the lost Senate
to Ireland. A tremendous fight with
the Unionists and Tories is anticipated,
and the rest of the world looks on with
intense interest.

THERE is evidence to show that Mr.
Whitney and Mr.. Lamont, both men
very close to Mr.. Cleveland, were con-
cerned in the late attempt of the whis-
ky trust to corner all the spirits in the
market, and at the same time to induce
Congress to increase the internal tax on
whisky, a proceeding which would op-
crate to put millions in the pockets of the
whisky men. Cleveland needs to look
out or his administration will be involv-
ed in scandal even before it begins.

THIS country is certainly in bad way.
The time is all out of joint. The out
look is filled with portentous and frown-
ing clouds. On the Fourth of March
Grover Cleveland will be iuaugurated,
and the nation will be exposed to four
years of Democratic control. That is
bad enough but that's not all. There is
every reason to apprehend that the
cholera will get into the country and
keep US hustling to keep alive. Rut
that's not all nor the worst. Fashion
has decided that the crinOline shall again
reign. What's the use in living? The
thing for a self-respecting and timid
man to do is to initiate the example of
that dark art professional who has an
nounced his intention of being buried
for one hundred days to show that he
can live so long or, if necessary, many
years in state of suspended animation.

EVERY man who deserves to be called
an American citizen mourns the loss to
the country of James G. Blaine. The
Republic has not for many years lost a
name so endeared to all classes of people,
and so universally esteemed for patriot
ism and craftsmanship. Mr.. Blaine was
born 62 years ago in Washington county,
Pa. He was graduated from Washing
ton and Jefferson college, at the age of
seventeen, taught in Kentucky and Phil
adelphia, and went to Maine to edit the
Kennebec Journul. He was delegate
to the Fremont convention in Sc, elected
to the Maine Legislature in So, to Con-
gress in '63, and has been continually
before the people since. Like Webster
and like Clay, he was the victim of the
seeming law that the nation shall not
give its highest honor to its most de-
serving, best qualified and best loved
son. History will accord Mr. Blaine
place among the highest of Americans.

Beln1u,,t Chronicle.

\ VESSEL arrived at San Francisco.
Saturday, bringing news of a revolution
at Hawaii and carrying commissioners
with petition for annexation to the
United States. The revolution took
place January 10th, and was an uprising
of the foreign element of the population
against the Queen, because she tried to
promulgate new constitution depriving
foreign born citizens of the right of
franchise, dissolving the present House
of Mobiles, and claiming the right to ap-
point a new House. The foreign ele-
ment, chiefly Americans, objected to
these measures, quietly assembled, de-
posed the Queen, instituted a Provis-
ional Government with S. B. Dole, the
son of an American missionary at its
head, and sent messengers to the United
States soliciting annexation.
The Hawaiian islands are located 2l00
miles west and slightly south of San
Francisco. Thyy comprise 5000 square
miles, and have population of 100000.
The chief product is sugar, and there is
over thirty million dollars of American
capital invested in this industry. The
value of the islands, however, is as a
coaling station, they being the only
available station between California and
Japan.
The question of annexation was at
Grst received in the country rather coldly,
but now sentiment seems to have crys-
taliized in favor of taking hold of the
islands. England stands ready and
anxious to take them. Failing to annex
them, this government will at least pre-
vent England from assuming control.
