inc ohio struggle.

The victory OF Mark Hnnns ia
Ohio will be looked upon by men of
all parties as a guarantee for the in
tecrity OF convention pledges What
ever may be the individual opinions
of Mr.. Hanna, himself, the fact that
the republican state convention nom
mated him, and every republican
county convention in the state but
four endorsed him, and the campaign
was fought on the issue of whether
or not he should be senator, and the
republicans won by handsome ina
jority- these facts entitled him TO
the office. OF the ten men who made
the first bolt, seven had in conyen-
..::an snlemnly pledged themselves to
vote for him. No amount of charges
OF corruption and mud Singing can
obscure the fact that these men de
liberntely perjnred themselves for a
chance at McLean's barrel, or to try
force Hanna to buy votes which be
had fairly won.
Had the members OF the Legislature
acted in good faith with their con
stituen,s there would have been no
cause for the unseemly wrangle OF
the past few days, and no reason for
the disgracefnl charges of bribery
and corruption, and Mr. Hanna would
have had much larger majority.
The corruption was on the part of
the seven members, who periured
themselves and sold out their con
siituents. The election Of Senator
Hanna is signal triumph over dis
honesty
Senator Hama is better known to
the people of Ohio than in any other
section OF the country and the cleo
tion is complete vindication from
all the calumnies made against him,
for the people not only nominated
and elected him, but when they dis
covered that their representatives
were about to betray him, they rose
ia mass convention and demanded
that they fulfill their pledges No
mitigation meeting ever held in this
country for size and intensity Of feel
ing has ever equaled that at Colnm-
bus on last Monday night The mem
bers were afraid to longer oppose the
manifest will Of their constituents,
aud Senator Hanna has the proud
distinction to day Of being the only
United States senator who holds his
commission direct from the hands OF
the people
