Special Correspondence:
Columbus, O., Feb. 26.-The present
general assembly of Ohio will not go
down in history as one Of the most in
telligent legislative bodies that ever
convened in the Buckeye state, but what
it lacks In Intelligence 1t makes up IN
the moral tone of the members OF the
two branches. The people of the state
who We're the most urgent in their de-
mands for the passage of the Harris
local option bill, however, may dispute
that there has been any Improvement
in this respect n the last general as
sembly the Haskell bill lacked eighteen
votes of receiving the constitutional vote
to pass it, while the Harris bill fe.l short
only seven votes 4 few days ago. THESE,
figures, therefore, will bear out the as
sertion. There We're some very able men
in the last legislature, two OF whom
would do credit to Themselves in con-
gress They were Hon. John F.
Locke, of Madison county. and Hon.
Charles p. Griffin, CT Lucas county.
Locke is by far the superior man of the
two. Il is equal as an orator and de-
batter has not occupied a seat in the Ohio
legislature in recent years at least. There
are very few abis men in the present
general assembly. General Wiley of
Wayne county, and Representative Nc.
Bride, OF Richlard d county. two of
tie tn enty- five sitting D m C ct m m
Ders. are regarded as the ablest men iE
the house They are walking encycio-
pedias of legisla.iv information and
most pleasant and fercib!e speakers.
Glen Dening. of Mercer county, comes
in for third honor.

THE republican Congress which
promised us so much relief has done
absolutely nothing. The Tarif bill,
an e-ho of McKinleyism from which,
we a tod, great blessings would
flow, is dead, killed by its keepers
The senate on Tuesday, by vote of
33 to % refused TO take up the
tariff bill, so the balance of the
session will be funeral service over

have lots more promises, lots more
