with so distinguished a patriot. A policeman
who locks up one hundred colored

Tat Republican party gave the State of

Democratic party through its Democratic
i _ SuWcmCW WuUeil Pff ft,jv, and yet
Governor Jioadly favors license. Has be
f comulted'Cr. Leonard f 'Sftrely hot: The1
mverend gentleman favors prohibition.
Iaregird to the Governor's avowal of profaring
a licence law the Ohio Stult Journal
sajs:
-Uoadly'a pretense ol favoring licence'
is s sham?a delusion and a snare. Licenae
is forbidden by the express terms of
the Constitution; and no man knows bettor
than Governor Hoadly that an amendment
to the Constitution authorizing the
license of the traliic will be voted down
by the people it proposed by the Legislature.
Such a proposition was subletted
to the popular vote two years ago, and
was defeated by a majority of over half a
million. And, moreover, Hoadly and
every other sensible man in the State
. tngtva that no Legislature that can be
I chosen in Ohio will submit a licence
amendment to the Constitution, at
an expense of from {00,000 to
i.; $100,000, knowing that it will be rejected
by the people. The inevitable conclusion,
therefore, is that Governor Hoadly and
the machine managers of the Democratic
r'' party in Ohio are in favor of free and onrestricted
traliic In intoxicating arinkc?
aw opposed to compelling liquor dealers
and saloon men to contribute their jnst
share of the public burdens?are in favor
ol compiling merchants, manufacturers,
; fanners and wage-workers to pay from
I $1,000,000 to $3,000,000 per annum in local
taxes more than they would have paid had

i It may be unkind, hut it is natural, for
I 113 to recall what these same men said ol
' Lincoln aid Grant, and thewar and the

. pHt. The Eepublicmjiarty was a ','black
abolition party,""Lftiioln was an "ape,'r
Grant Wtt - 3 "butcher," . and Holon;
soldlera were "Lincoln hirelings." The
war was the Brim of all crimes. Yet these.
; same men now seek to hide their 'opposition
to the war and their abuse ol
Lincoln and Grant by fulsome ealogy and
; praise. Yet, Btrange to say, by the defec,
lion of a comparatively few mon in three
iiepubilcan Stales,' onr old adversaries

LEAVES OF ABSENCE
A SUBJECT OF QBSAT CONCERN
By the Admlnlilratlon-The Solicitor of Ilia
TrMinry U Conamlmd to Opra HU
lJrofcd Mind on llio Subject?I VerJ
X>tcp Slattar tor Small UibIdIi
WASniKOTON, D'. 0, August.27.?Judge
McCuc, Solicitor, of the Treasury, hits
given an opinion in regard to leaves of
absence to Inspectors of Customs, which
luti a general bearing on leaves granted to
all classes of omploycs under the Treasury
Department. The opinion, which has
been approved by the acting Secretary, is
as , follojre i The practice \ of granting
a leave of absence seems to have
grown up in the department service without
special provision of law, and it seems
that the custom has: fixed the extent of
the leave at a period not exceeding thirty
days, except for illness or other special
reasons, and-no deduction was made front
the Or'ponipenMtion of the cleric or
other empioye.' The act of 1888 for
the first time recognizes the unwritten
law on the subject and provides
that "all leaves of aliaence from Departments
on the part of said clerks or other
omployes in excess oi such leave of absence
as may bo granted by the heads
thereof, which shall not exceed thirty
da)a in any one year, except in case of
sickness, shall be without: pay." It is
the fatr intent of the law therefore,
that having a leave of absence
and tho same not exceeding thirty days
the elerk 'or employe shalF during such
leave receive his usual pay. It is to
liO borne in mind that ltavo is simply
uermissloo. and the head of the depart
meat has the right to allow a leave or
not and to whit extent within the thirty
days, and that all leaves so granted most
be received upon the understanding:that
it is revokable within the discretion of
the headol the department. 'The best interests
of the Government-unit therefore
be considered by the head
of tbe department in determining
whether to grant a leave or not, and
whether for thirty days or lets, and the responsibility
in relation to the w(iole subject
matter rests upon the liead of the department.
I have had occasion to.coni
aider tbe subject of tho payment of Inspectors,
andf within the limits and
directions therein, suggested I see no reason
why tbe rule established by the act
of 1883, above referred to, ehould not apply
to Inspectors and Night Inspectors.

that itstill believes the Rev. Dr.Leonard El

' "It Is notorious that the .prohibition 5'
movement in Ohio is a conspiracy against,
the Republican party, managed and run .
in the interest of theDemocracy. It'is
equally notorious that ', this ; conspiracy
aims at the abregatibh dti all restraints on /
the liquor traffic. Instead ol prohibition,
it means absolute free trado in liquors and
