The Stole election Connecticut
Monday tis pretty much a one-fided
affair. Inoeksom., Democrat, was
elected Governor over both the Repub

Democrats also elected three out of the
four Congressmen, besides retaining
their supremacy in the Legislature.

The "salary grab" stuck iu the pock

the craws of a good many honest voters.
How would it have been liad the honest
voters been in the place of the Congress
men? "Win is a thief your only true philos

from an abstract pointof view, is oppos

One end of the roof of the residence of
Col. O. P. Johnson was discovered to be
in a light blaze, about two o'clock last
Wednesday afternoon. The alarm was
given, and in half an hour's lima, not
withstanding a pretty stiff breeze was
blowing and the roof was dry as tinder,
the ''bucket brigade" soon conquered the
incipient conflagration. Col. Stoddard
Johnston, who witnessed the affair, said
he never saw a fire better handled, as
considering the high wind, and the coni
butible nature of the building, he had no
idea that it could be saved.

public offices, we have this to say of Mr.
R. P. Hocker, whom they nominated for
the Legislature last Friday: He is a
young man of pure and spotless charac
ter, honest and conscientious in all hie
dealings, courteous and gentlemanly in
his manners and deportment, and pos
sesses a very good education. lie is
young, and inexperienced in legislative
matters. He has a large fund of general
information for one of his age, and is a
close student. If elected he will no doubt
make at least an average representative.

Dsq., were put in nominatiou. The first

and Sam. Berry were appointed tellers,
and a" second vote resulted in the election
of 'Squire Baltzell, who at once took his
chair.
On motion, Wallace Gruelle was elec
ted Secretary.
Dr. Pendleton moved that the chair ap

Mr. A. L. Mortod moved as an amend
mens that the committee shall consist of
one member from each district in the
county.
After some discussion, indulged in by
Messrs Walker, A. L. Morton, Chapeze,
and Gregory; Hon. H. D. 'McHenry

That fire gentlemen be appointed a commit
tee on resolutions, and that the chairman ap
point snid committee; but, in making the se
lection, he is directed to appoint them from
different precincts.
Mr. Morton withdrew his amendment
in favor of Mr. McHenry'a substitute,

Hewitt fur Auditor, Richard-Sharp for Register
of tho Land Office, Rubt. J. Breckinridge fur

Public Instruction.
JlttolrtJ, That this convention believe it for
the best interest of the party, and haying full
confidence in the prudence and judgment of its
delegates, sends them uninstructcd as to the of
fice of Governor, further than to aid in tho se
lection of such standard-bearer as by his known
ability and integrity, will commend them and
the principles they represent to tho wholo peo
ple of the State.
lltKhcd, That the success of the Democrat
ic par y, and the triumph of Democratic prin
ciples are essential to the preservation of free
government in America.
Mr. Sam. Hill submitted, for Dr.
Raines and himself, the following minor
ity report:
Resolved, By the Democracy of Ohio county,
that we approve the call of the Stato Central
Committee, for a convention of the Democracy'
or Kentucky, to bi held in the city of Frank
fort on the 6th day of May, 1875, for the pur
pose of nominating candidatesfor tho different
State offices.
Resolved, That we do not approve of the
manner by which several of the candidates for
Gubernatorial honors have prosecuted the can
vass for said office; that said office is not one
to be graocfully sought or dutifully declined;
that the time honored practice of the office seek,
ing tho man should prevail, instead of the pres
ent personal canvass, which is being made, and
which tends to drag the dignity of the office in
the dust. Therefore we will not instruct our
delegates to cast the vote of this county for any
particular candidate, but request them to use
all honorable means to secure the nomination
of soino one fitted for tho high and responsible
position.
Resolved, That our delegates to said State
convention are instructed, as to the other of5
fcers to be nominated, to cast the vote of this
county for the following persons for the re
spective offices for which they are candidates:
lor Lieut. Governor, Jno. C. Underwood; for
Auditor, D. Howard Smith; for Superintendent
l'uultc Instruction, H. A. M. Henderson; for
Register, J. A. Grant; and, as to the other offi
ces, tbey are left uninstrncted,
Resolved, That the following persons are
hereby appointed delegates to said convention:
Ben.j. Newton, Tho. Bell, E. F. Smith, Henry
Cecil MoGIroy, Jno. T. Smith, C'. W. R. Cobb,
Jo. T. Harder, A. T. Hines, J. C. Bean, J. B.

Morgan, A C Ellis, J W Barnett, A B Bennett
II D Bennett R M Walker, Cal R T Bell, and
all other good Democrats of .Ohio county who
may wish to attend.
Resolved, That wo view with alarm the ten
dency of modern legislation, both State and
national, which, in our opinion, seeks to place
labor and the product of labor, especially the
primitive occupation of husbandry, under con
tinuous and increasing contribution to capital.
and hereby plaoe the seal of our hearty condem
nation upon such legislation, and denounce it
as designed to make the rich richer and the
poor poorer, and demand the immediato appli-
aation of a corrective remedy.
Resolved, That we demand of the Legisla
ture of Kentucky, at its next session, to pass a
law which will require railroad and other cor
porations to pay county, town and municipal
taxes. We do not see why the farmer, mechan
ic and laborer should be subject to every species
of taxation, while the incorporated companies,
such as banking, railroad and other corpora
tions are subject to State taxes alone.
Judge Baird opposed the minority re
port in an earnest speech, and closed bv
moving the minority report as a substi
tute therefor.
Mr. McHenry moved the following sub
stitute, for both, reports, which was adop
ted:

ty, who sees propor to attend said oonvention,
is appointed a delegate,and that this meeting
will now proocod to instruct their delegates as
ta howto vote for the different offioars.
Mr. A. L. Morton, noticing that per
sons were voting who have hitherto acted
with the Radical party, offered the fol
lowing resolution, which was adopted:
Resolved. That we pledge ourselves to sup
port the nominee of the Democratic Convention
to be holden at Frankfort on the 6th day of
May, 18T5,
The next business in order was the in
struction of the delegates to the State
convention.
It was decided that the vote should be
taken by the members of the convention
passing through the entrance to the bar,
and counted by tellers in passing.
Judge Gregory and Dr. Sam. Berry
were appointed tellers.
The names of General John S. Wil
liams, Hon. James B. McCreary and
Col. J. .Stoddard Johnston ware put in
nomination for Governor.
Judge Gregory moved that tlie name
nf the hindmost candidate be dropped,
unles the foremost one received a ma
jority of all the votes cast on the first
ballot, which motion was adopted.
The vote was then taken, and resulted
as follows: Williams 53; McCreary 48

Mr. Editor: Not having noticed any
thing from your correspondent at this
place for some time, and not wishing you
to think that we had passed into nonen
ty, we have concluded to trouble-you our
self. Sl'RINO nAS COMB.
We are glad to see and feel that the
beautiful spring has at last made its ap
pearance, and that our farmers can now go
to work. The songs of the merry birds and
the long hidden grassy yards, and all
things else, make us to feel anew; and we
feel constrained to praise Him, the "giver
of all good gifts.''
OUR 8PRI.SO TRADE
has not opened as lively as last year; we
look however for a fair trade, notwith
standing the scarcity of money. We have
an energetic people, Mr. Editor, and
wherever energy predominates, yon know,
there will lie money.
wnERB TIIB MONET IS THE SHERIFFS FLOCK.
We sometimes think that all the mon
ey in the county is to be- found here, for
we notice one or two deputy sheriffs here
all the time, and frequently have to send
for Uncle Tom to come out.
THAT COURTHOUSE TAX ACAI.V.
We do wish you would tell us all about
that courthouse tax; we see inquiries from
all parts of the the county, and it is al
most the universal talk. If the money
has been collected, will not the receipts
show where it is?
SOUK NICE PUFFIN'S.
We were pleased a few evening? since,
to meet upon ourstreetBagain.thesmiling
face of Dr. John J. Mitchel. who has been
spending the winter in Louisville. He is
now prepared to cure all who may favor
him with a call, and we can cheerfully
recommend him as a goal physician. Dr.
George F. Mitchell will also remain with
us, and we feel proud to say that the coun
ty cannot boast of two better ones.
CANDIDATES AROUT.
We have been visited during the past
few weeks by several distinguished gen
tlemen, several of whom would like to be
come State officers.
PREDICTION ART.
. Clint Baird says he thinks Col. Smith'
will be re-elected. We think so, too, for
we could not have a better Auditor.
CATTLE SHIPMENTS.
We notice that our enterprising friend
Mr. J. A. Taylor, ships a car load of cat
tle every few days. He had jusf, as soon
have poor as fat ones, for which be pays
Louisville prices.
Ml S3 CARRIE oinaoN,
one of Hartford's belles, has charge of
our school, and is giving entire satisfac
tion. The children all love her, and
well, some one else, too, we expect, from
the many admiring glances we see be
stowed. A LOST WIDOWER.
Our young widower merchant lelt us
more than a week since, and we cannot
hear from him. Please inquire of the
Herald at Leitchfield, if they know of
him.
OCR POLICE COURT
convened Saturday last, Judge Cooper
presiding. Several cases were decided,
and quite a number continued. Mr.
Wesley Hocker made his debut in the le
gal profession. Wea. is an enterprising
young roan, and pleads well. He says
he is going to have his speech printed
and circulated, as it is the best ever made
by a young man in our court-room, and is
