THE STATE TICKET.
Through sheer, neglect we hare fail
ed to place the nominees of the State
Convention at the head ot our col
umns, until the present issue. It is
unneoeesary to eulogize any of the
nominees of that Convention, as each
and all of them hare a reputation
throughout the State.
There has been some objection to
Judge Welch because be was one oi
the judges that decided that the scl
diers in the Home at Dayton had no
ris;ht to rote in the precinct in which
the Home isBituated. The Democrats,
with their usual inconsistency, are
seizing upon this with a view to influ
ence Republicans against him. This
will avail them nothing. The mass of
the Republican voters are pot only in
telligent men, but they are true lovers
of justice, and they would scorn the
partisan subserviency which would
male tha hio-hpar. nforifiLa-TT;ty

Judge Welch was placed on the bench,
not to carry out his own political con
victions, nor the political convictions
of any number of Lis supporters, but
to give, to the best ot his ability, just
and impartial decisions upon all mat
ters of law and equity coming before
the Const. This he has done, and no
true Republican will censure Lim for
not allowing a political bias to influence
his opinion of law. We might remark
to our Democratic friends, in th's con
nection, that Judge Welch is not tbe
style of man from whom a 44 D red
Scott" decision could be expected.
UNITY OF ACTION.
It is the the great mistake of some
politicians that they regard nnity of
action in a party aa dependent en
tirely upon nnity ot thought and
opinion among the different individu
als composing the organization.
A party is not supposed to reflect
tbe individual views of each and
every one who chooses to act with it
If bo, we should have almost as many
parties as there are individuals, and
parties would fail in one of their
most important objects that of con
centrating public thought in certain
specific channels for the accomplish
ment of important objects in the ad
ministration of government- Parties
are tbe servants of the people, and
no man is, or should be, a servsnt to
a party. Herein we claim that the
Republican party stands upon a plane
higher than any political organization
that baa previouslyexisted in our conn-,
try. The party was organized with a
specific view to checking and rolling
back the wave of African a'avery
which threatened to deluge the terri
tories of the - nation, and by the
power thus gained, eventually nation
alize itself and seize the reins of
government.
The young party threw its banners
to the breeze, with "Free Territory"
engraven upon every fold. Upon
that ground it fought its first bitlle
and achieved iu first success. Wbm
the rebellion came, Union an J Free
dom became its watchwords, and
when the war closed it turned iu
attention to a just administration ol
the government, and an honorable
and jut paynent of the debt of the
nation. It made these steps forward
because the great heart of the pet pie
demanded them. It must continue
to go forward in union with the will
ot tbe people, and in order that this
will say be known and felt, the full
tt and freest discussion muit bet
encouraged.
The Democratic party Las been
controlled by cliques until it has
almost lost tbe vantage ground which
it once held. If the Republican party
would profit by this mistake of their
opponent,, they must place their
cause In the hands of the people.
There is where it belongs by every
tradition cf the party, and every at
tempt to drive men by the party lath
into the support of measures which
their better judgment condemns, will
only result in injury to tbe party.
The judgment of the mass of the
voters of a party is generally a cor
rect one, and it is only when' the
expression of that judgment is mp
preesed or stifled that the perl v f offers.
RHODE ISLAND ELECTION.
The Rhode island election on the
3d resulted in the re-elrction ot Gov
ernor Seth Padalford by a voto of
9,385 to 8,228 for Mr. Onley Arnold,
ibe democratic candidate. It is prob
able that the democratic candidate
lor Lieutenant-Governor, Mr Charles
IL Cutler, is elected. Lieutenant
Governor Stevens, tbe Republican
candidate, was unpopular by reason
of his connection with the trap-fishing
interest, which has much influence in
ume carte of the state. The Seuate
will stand 26 Republican end II
Democrats, and the House of Repre
negatives 53 Republicans, 17 Demo.

HOUSE AND THE SENATE.
There is a question of jurisdiction
between tbe House and the Snate in
Washington, precipitated by tbe
action of the House last week, adopt
ing a resolution laying a Senate res
olution on the tabic, iue vote in
favor of the resolution was an alinoBt
unanimous one. Tbe objection cf
the House is to tho practical origi
nation by tbe Senate, of bills on
financial sutjects The Constitution
provides that all bills for raising rev
enue shall originate in the House.
Under tbe idea of amending the bills
thus originated, the Senate has often
materially changed tho financial
measures proposed by tLc House;
and growing bolder it has,fcr several
years past, originated financial meas
ures which have come into direct
collision with those developed in the
House. This is anaoy leg. But back
of this is a principle, and involved in
it are daugers which deserve serious
consideration.
Tbe regulation that the House
shall originate revenue measures is
offset by the further provision that
the Senate bhall be the treaty-making
power, and shall pars appointments
made by the PresidentThe theory
is, that care and conservatism will
be secured by tbe separation cf these
powers Each House of Congress,
under tLU rule, may exeit a whole
some check upon the other. For
examplp, the 'treaty wi h Russia f r
cession ot Alaska to this country in
volved the txienditure ot over (7,
000,000 in goIJ. Ttie Hou?c, under
the Cons ilution, had charge of this
branch of tbe transaction. Its refu
sal lb originate measures ahenby
the money could be provided would.
if cecesssry, quash the entire trans
action. Hence the Senate would net
be likely to proceed without due
regard to its co-ordii-ate bitnehof
the Legislature. So in regard to
appointments, the House, under this
rule, may be regarded as a check
upon Senatorial extravagance, in ita
appropriations, as the Senate may
refuso to confirm appoin'ment?, for
which no financial proviM n has been
made.
FACTS IN THE CASE.
The Mantfidd Herald figure iq
few facts under the above heading,
which arc very pointed. It say :
When it was discovered, as had
long been believed, that Tammany,
the head of tbe democratic party o1
the country, which had controlled the
party for many years, until it bad
nearly broken up the government,
was corrupt from its surface to its
depibs, bad stolen from the city of
Kew xork millions upon millions,
tbo democrats, who had been wound
ed to the hearts core, had their very
life knocked out ot them, together
ith those who bsd failed to control
fen upright executive, cued out like
school boys, "Well, if we did steal
you havo stolen, too. They, there-
tore set the vilest hounds in the pack
to tear the administration to peices.
and not a department ot the execu
live has been exempt from their vile
libels and demands for investigation.
sr.d they have had tbem. What is
tbe result? Every department has
been proved without a stain or a smell
of corruption npon its garments.
Dana or tbe Mew York Sun. a pi
per that has tbe respect of no person
in the Union, and is only used for
tne vilest purposes, made charges
gainst secretary uobeson and de
rounded an investigation. It was al
lowed. Robeson demanded it too,
The .Sim brat was allowed to bring
bis witnesses and examine them him
self. Tbe result was that he said
that if be had a dead man there he
could prove that somebody had ssid
that tbe Secretary had paid a bill that
was outlawed. Robeson proved by
fie documents that he bad Congres
sional authority lor paying the bill.
Every honorable man at Washington
advises Robeson to Isy aside, for tbe
occasion, the dignity of his position,
and give the miscreant the full penal
ty rf the law. We would like to see
"placed in rvery honest hand a whip
to lash such rascals naked through
tbewoild"
Tin regular Washington correspon
dent of the To.'edo Blade gives the fol
lowing: "Hon. Jeremiah Black, a
noted leader of the Democratic forces
in Pennsylvania, is here, and sai I the
other day while speakink of the Cin
cinnati Convention, that it was not
liku'y to accomplish mm-li, and might
as well be dispensed with. 'If, he cot -tinued,
they should nominate Lym in
Trumbull, the author of the Rccon
scrcction Ac?h, I should preferto vote
for Grant. Then, in regard to the
delegates, he said that some of them
he knew were acting very satisfactori
ly with the Democratic party now,
and that if tbe Convention was to be
composed of uch men generally be
did not see how it was going to weak
en the Republican party.''

TEMPERANCE LEGISLATION.
A special dispatch from' Columbus
gives the following regarding temper
ance legislation:
The Senate Committee on Temnpr.
ancp have decided to report back Mr.
McDowell s bill, to amend the linuor
law of 1 870 by requiring notice to be
given. When this bill is reported
back next week, Mr. Putman will
offer a substitute for it. This substi
tute U to provide that the towndiip
clerk of each township in the State,
in which there is no city ot the first
or second class situated, snd in town

second ciass are simaieu,ine city clerk
of such cities, who shall have anthori-
lty to act tor the whole townslup.who
shall oen a record in which, upon
application, any lessee or tenant of
property in which intoxicating liquors
are sold may have his name enrolled.
It shall also be the duty ot such town
ship or city clerk to keep a record
upon which any husband, wife, child,
parent, guardian or employer ruaj,
upon personal rppiicauon to said
township or city clerk, without tharro
for such service, have recorded the
name of any person to whom they
desire to prohibit tho sale of intoxicat
ing liquors, which record shall not be
open tor the insjtection of the pubhe.
It shall be the duty of each township
or city clerk, immediately alter being
notified regarding a person to whom
liquor is not to be sold, to notify in
writing every lessee or tenant whose
name is recorded in the record im n
tioncd in this section, giving the name
of such person, and the township.
ward or school districts in h liich he
resides and such notifications shall xs
deemed as sullicient compliance with
requirement in the previon sections
of this act The said clerk tjiall also
Keep a record ot the date ufm winch
notification is given, and the notifica
tion Miull not bo deemed to r.o com
plete until seven days after tbo mail
ing ot the written notification ot tho
clerk. For tbe purposo of coinneu
sating the township or city clerk tor
his services, and tor the purpose of
paying the expenses ot stationery and
postage required in giving such notifi
cation, every lesseo or tenant, upon
making application and before his
name is enrolled in tho record pro
for that purpose, shall pay to the clerk
tho tee of five doll.ns, which shall be
renewed yearly. The clerk shall be
entitled to tho fee of one dollar lor
each name enrolled of tenant or lessee,
and the further fee of five cents for
each notification in a township where
thero are cities of the first class, and
ten cents in townships cf tho second
class with a population ol less than
fifteen thousand souls, and the residue
of tho sum raised by the provision ot
thi section shall be paid into the
township treasury, for the lienelit of
tco poor of the township, tho clerk
taking a receipt of the township treas
ircr lor the amount so paid in. Any
lesseo or tenant who fails, neglect or
refiwes to pay or renew tho feo speci
fied in tho foregoing section, or neg
lect to have bis name enrolled in
the record of the township or city ol
the township in which he resides, shall
forfeit tho benefit of registry and no
tification, and may be proceeded
ag-.inst as though such provisions were
not contained in this act.
It wculd seem from the above that
it is deemed necessary by the framers
of the bill to offer some protection to
the liquor traffic. It is proposed to
a vast governmental machinery,wbose
ramifications shall extend into every
township, for the purpose of notify
ing a tew whisky dealer that they
shall r.ot violate tho laws ot humanity
and of tho State. It the liquor traffic
were a necessity, we could readily
understand legislation which seeks to
protect it. As it is a business which
men enter from choicc, and in plain
violation of law, wo cannot see any
reason why they should escape the
risks attendant upon it, the same as
any businees man does. The Adair
Liquor law injures no man who has a
common regard for justice, propric
ty or decency. If a liquor seller, for
the sako of gain, persists in iirlng
whisky into a man who l.as already
debased himself below the plane of
humanity, and drowned his reason at
the bar of the whisky seller, he should
be allowed to take his chances in the
matter of redressing the wrong We
would simply placo men who deal out
whisky by tho drink in tho same, cat
egory a ilh those who engage in any
other business. If they find the Lusi
ness a risky one, community will bo
benefitted by their leaving tor some
lea precarious business.

day, by locking np legal tender notes,

said to have received the services of

made some weeks ago. H. X. Smith,

unusual strength of the bull, tpoiled
their name, and tLey r cenlly joined

Those factions were divided by a living

could neither bo evaded nor joston

voted for Grant three year ago have
undiminished faith in him now. lie

LONGSTREET ON RECONSTRUCTION.
A receat letter from Gen. Lorg
stieit, gives the folloaiog as his
views on the matter of reconstrcc
lion :
Tuc great tpiesti m in tuU quarter
is tbe problem of reconstruction, end
I am inclined to think that it u tbe
most important nslionbl question
It i hardly worth our lime, at this
Ute day, to ask whether the recon
stiuction laws arc the wisest that
could have been devised. They are
law, and have lentuflicint'y tested
to convince us that their faithful ad
mini tra'ion will lead t the results
anticipated by these who were instru
mental ta their eiattment. I think
it better, tl erefcre, to adhere to lLo
original plan than start elf upon some
other theory, that may lead us into
new dilllcullies acd porsibly to dis
astro us contusion. Our financial
affairs are in such favorable recon
sldemion, that we may assume the
eolution of tbe first problem as decid
ing tin also, uur reconstruc tion is
one of the weightiest jobs tlitt we
ever saddled upon a government ;
even more dillicult than the effort
of Prussia to reconstruct Alsace and
Lorraine. For with the latter it is
an affair of a lifetime; with us, but
four years aie allotted to the task
unless iho people have that patience
and forbearance that are necessary to
give to limo it healing and ssdutary

DEATH OF PROFESSOR MORSE.

age Hi name will forever be ajs

splendid invention will merit him
this distinction. An exebarge pro

bis memory :
Had ho never thought of the tele

the bighrst honors, Iriendship and

and varied abilities, associated with
a noblo character. In early life, ho
showed the genius of a truly great
artUt. In after years he exercised
all the powers "t a masterly scientific
invesl:cator. Throughout hi career
ho was eminent fir the loftines of
his aims, for hi resolute failh in the
strength of truth, lor his capacity to
endure tnd to wait, and for Id fidel
ity aiikc to hi convictions and to
his friend. Hi intellectual cmi
nence was limited to no one branch
of buinau eff-Tt. but ia the judgment
of men who knew him lies', be had
endowments which might have made

Evkrv leader of advanced thought
in an uncivilized country assumes his
leadership at tho risk of his life, a well
known saying that has received frefh
confirmation from the fact that tho
Milkado of Japan came very near, on
tho 2Gth of March, paying tbo death
penalty for being to hi empire an
apos'.lo of liberal opinions and cnlight
encd idea. That tho attempted as
sassination was unsuccessful id indeed
cause for gratulation to every friend
of progress throughout tho orld, for
tho death of tho Milkado at the. prct?-
ent juncture would have tho effect of
crushing out ot existence tho meas
ures of reform that ho has inangrated,
and of throw ing Japan back into the
miilnt of the barbarous night, the dark
cloud ol which havo as yet hardly

Tiik following, from tho Ohio Slate

Two years ago, thirty-six hours
after the April election, it was figured

majority for Trustee of the Water
Work. Tbi year, thirty-six hours
af.cr tlio April election, tbe judges
finish c nvassing the vote and an
nounce a tbo result that Uichard
Xevins wa3 elected Trusteo of tl(,e

Here is an interesting little coioci
dence. As a well-meaning and con
scientious citizen remarked to us
'If it was by the people's votes that
Dick Jeia8 was elected, I have
nothing more to say, but if tbe judges
of election aro going to determine
the contest in his favor every time by

be allowed to do all the voting."
Tiik following paragraph from the
Lancaster Gazette expresses the al
most unanimous sentiment of the
Republicans of the State :
The Republican majority in the

OPENING OF THE GERMAN PARLIAMENT.
LIAMENT. . -The
speech of the crown, read by
Count Kismark, at the opening of the
GerniMi parliament, i in the bighrst
degree satisfactory as to tho condition
ol the Get man Empire. It .numer
ates the vaiions subjects ot legisla
tion to bo submitted to l'arliamnit
for the regulation and development of
tho national institutions. Among
them arc the inili'ary and penal codes.
uniform beer and malt taxes, and
tho ratification ot the commercial
treaty with Portugal ; of tho consular
convention w ilh the United States ol
America ; and of the postal treaty
with France. Tho increase of German
commerce permit the gcvcriimei.t to
raiec it estimate of revenue, and
corresjKihdingly reduce tho rale of
taxation. Bids arc promised to , ro
vide for the disposition of the large
eurplu of 1ST1, and the sum roceiv
ed on account ot the French war in
demnity. Alsaco and Lorraine are
recovering from tbe shock of tho late
war. Tho foumktlion. of the German
administration have been laid in the
provinces. The new University of
Stranburg ojk-ii cn the 1st of May,
and grant w ill bo required to provide
for the scientific establishment con
nected with that institution. The
speech conclude as follows :
"You will share the satisfaction felt
by the federal government at the ro
cults of the first year of the empire,
and joyfully anticipate further devel
opment. You will alo receive with
satl-lactioii the assurance, that the
policy followed by that government
has proved success! ul in retaining and
strengthening the confidence ot all
foreign power The strength acquir
ed by iinperializalion is the bulwark of
tho fatherland and tho gtiann'e ot
peace to Euiojie."
IMPORTANCE OF ORGANIZATION.
It is now generally accepted as true
that tho important work ot a political
campaign does not consist in stnniD
speeches, fife, drums, cannons, or un
earthly soreecliinir for the candidate
of your choice. Quiet, thorough.
systematic work i what win in the
long run. Apropos of thi the Toledo
Blade- ha the following :
Thorough, systematic woik pays
in polities quite a well a in every
other business. The Into canvass in
New Hauqishire illustrate the impor
tance of systematic committee work.
A few days before the late election in
that State, tho Republican canvass
give to Governor Straw 38,141 votes,
and to all other candidate 35,!G5,
making his majority 1,170. The
actual vole for Governor Straw was
38,814 ; and lor his opponents 37,5Sl).
Tho estimate was only C73 under
Governi r Straw's vote, and but 504
nnder hat of the opposition. The
Republican majority was almost liter
ally given ; tho actual majority being
1,2 j, or only torty-nme moro than
th3 figure set down in advance. This
i a remarkably close estimate The
lesson which it teaches is reach the
people. The coming Presidential
contest will bo surpassed in interest
by no campaign since 13IO. Conven
tions, ole-raising, speeches, mu.-ic
and banners, are all well enough in
their time and in their way, but.
what id ot more importance, is good,
wide awake, -workins committees in
every county, township and ward, to
number our forces and keep them in
drill during the contest. Tho victory
in New Hampshire was a glorious
thing to shout over, but we must not
forget Iho mean by which only hard
fought battle are won.
TRICKS OF THE TRADE.
The following from the Xew York
Evening J'ont will bo reguarded as
tut justice to the energy of the Mor
mons, while it exhibits some of the
"tricks of the trade" in vogue with
Railroad Corporations.
Tbo Mormons have shown, perhaps,
their usual coolncf in attempting to
bnild a read through the public lands
without so much as a "by your leave'
to Congress, but they deserve credit
tor doing what has never been clone
in this country before. They Lave
undertaken to build a long railroad
on the western plains without ask
ing the government for aid. The
novelty and independence of such a
course should be refreshing to Con
gressmen who have been so long and
so persistently importuned by land
speculators and professional lobby
ists. The cool impudence of-the
Mormons should, in this case, be over
looked, and the"Uuh;Soutbern Rail
road Companv" should lie protected
against the- Great Silt Lake City
and Colorado Railroad Company," a
corporation farmed, apparently, to
take advantage of the present distur
bances and rob the original company
of its capital already invested, by
getting a right of way parallel to and
near that of the road new partially
built. The Mormon .company, ac
cording to Delegate Hooper, have
twenty-five mflea in operation, and
fifty miles of road-bed finished. They
hope to get a hundred miles finished
by December next. If these asser
tions are facts, the Gentile company
should net be allowed to reap the
benefit of their labor, as they tcdoobv
edly woulJ, by forcing a sale at
ruinous terms, if tha parallel right el
way were granted.
