GOT. HOADLT'S
Gentlemen of tho Senate and House of
Representatives:
In accordance with law, I am
here to take the oath, and enter
upon the discharge of the dutie
of the office of Governor.
The elections held in October,
1SS2, and 1883, consummated by
the changes in office made to-day
reverses the character of political
control in all departments of the
State Government. The party
now coming into power does not,
however, occupy the offices for
the sake of mere emolument. In
such cases power means trust.
Upon it is cast the responsibility
of Government, with the risk of
condemnation, if its work fail to
be in comparison with that of its
predecessor. These are not times
in which political mistakes are
readily condoned. Large and in
creasing numbers of citizens now
vote independently of party ties,
constituting a tribunal sitting in
perpetual and severe judgment
upon acts of public officers. If
the management of State affairs,
especially by the Executive and
Legislative departments be wise,
the reward will follow in the
shape of continued public confi
dence. But confidence is of slow
growth and soon lost in the pres
ence of unwise selections for of
ficial position, or hasty and im
provident legislation. There is
but one sure method whereby to
secure party success, viz : abso
lute devotion to the interests of
State, perfect identity between
party action and the general good.
Whenever, for supposed political
advantage, the welfare of the
State is subordinated to that of
party th penalty is at once in
voked and will 6iirely follow, in
the loss of popular confidence
and in disaster at the polls. To
select men of doubtful capacity
for public service, to withdraw,
for parly ends from control of
the people, the organization and
government of municipalities, to
forget that the benevolent insti
tutions arc sacred charities for
the benefit of the unfottunate.
and not centres of political acti
apportionmentt.are among means
whereby popular confidence may
be easily lost, and a triumphant
party reduced to a minority at
the first opportunity offered to
popular suffrage. That from
these and like disasters tho State
Government of Ohio may be
spared, that its efforts to serve
the Stato wisely and .well, may
be crowned with sucsess that
the burthens of taxation maynof
increase, that economy may pre
vail in public administration,
that personal liberty may be se
cure, and government be felt, if
at all, most in its benefits and
least in its restraints; that the
wise limitations of power con
tained in the Constitution, and
which, since 1851, have largely
contributed to the success of the !
Government, may be strictly ob
seived these are among the
hopes with which I take this
oath, not unmindful of the admo
nition, "Let not him that girdeth
en the-harness boast himself as
he that pulteth it off." Upon
their fulfillment will depend the
success of the State Government
during the next two years, and
the final judgment of the people
concerning the present General
Assembly and officers of the
State.
Reforms are proposed, the suc
cessful accomplishment ef which
is much to be desired, but not all
correspondingly easy. To pro
vide the necessary means where
by the letting to hire of convict
labor at the penitentiary may be
dispensed with, as promised in
the platforms of both political
parties to do this without incur
ring the risk of injurious idleness
of coavicts, or of increased taxa
tion, is a task calling for the
greatest wisdom in contrivance
and integritT in execution. The
difficulties are so great as to jus
tify any reasonable precaution
necessar3T to avoid that failure
which is certain to follow hasty
ind improvident action.
Divorces have so rapidly in
creased in number that many of
our best citizens demand a thor
ough revision of the laws, so thut
the dissolution of the marriage
tie, the separation of parents and
the neglect of children, may be
discouraged by the laws of Ohio.
Insanity is frequently success
fully simulated as a protection
against punishment for crime.
This might be defeated, if an ac
quittal on this ground were re
quired to be specific and were
equivalent to a conviction of in
sanity, so as to be followed by a
commitment to one of the insane
asylums of the State for a period
proportionefl to the gravity of
the injury. In case that might
OCKING
LOGAN, OHIO.
prove real and be followed by re
covery, the power to discharge
the patient as cured might be
granted. If the insanity should
prove to be feigned this puish
ment of confinement would not
be inadequate, and the criminal
might be transferred to the peni
tentiary. I concur with Gov. Foster in
recommending the creation of an
Advisory Board of Pardons. It
is to be regretted that the two
branches f the 65th General As
sembly, both of which agreed in
desiring this reform, had not lime
to reconcile the difference of de
tail which prevented its adoption
last winter.
The act of 1S83, commonly
known as the Russell bill, is un
der debate, and its constitution
ality attacked in the courts, up
on the grounds that the inviola
bility of private property is there
bv imDaired: that property of
which the use may be prohibited,
can not be subject to double tax
ation in the name of license fees.
Pending this investigation, and
without reference to results, it is
at least desirable to amend tha
part of this act which imposes a
license tax upon "mediums," so
that it shall not seem to be an
attack upon the religious views,
sincerely held, of even a small
minority.
Extensive changes in the Judi
cial Department have been au
thorized by constitutional amend
ment. With the aid of the bar,
from whom this measure emanat
ed, and whose general support
has given it public . confidence
the scheme may easily be com
pleted hy the necessary legisla
tion to the relief of suitors by the
avoidance of delays in the doing
of justice between litigants, and
the necessary expense may pos
sibly be lessened by a reduction
in the number of Judges ef t::e
Court of Common Pleas.
I earnestly commend your at
tention to the following passage
from the message of Gov. Allen,
submitted to the General Assem
bly, Dec. 1,1874:
"It is a question for your seri
ous consideration, whether the
'compensation of our county offi
cers is not disproportionate to
the salaries of other public offi
cers and of persons in private
life. Public servants should be
reasonably compensated; but
salaries and fees should not be so
high" as to make the getting of
office a profession, and to enable
candidates and applicants to buy
their way to public places.'
In this connection, I may add
that the Hamilton County Fee
bill, adopted in 1S70, has been
for thirteen years in successful
operation, and that its principle
might be applied to others, at
least of the more populous and
wealthy counties, with like ben
efit to the public, and with rea
sonable if not really large com
pensation to the officers.
It is to be regretted that public
attention was not sufficiently
alive in 1S79 to its importance,
to secuie the adoption of the
Constitution :1 amendments then
submitted, so tLat at least, in the
year in which a President is cho
sen the State election might be
held in November. Ohio is now
the only "October State," and
during this year will be exposed
to consequent expense, inconve
nience and ppssible corruption
and degradation of the franchise.
In no sense is this a party ques
tion, and the majority of those
who voted upon n in 1879 were
in favor of the change. It was
defeated by the apathy of voters
who did not understand the pro
position, or did not take interest
enough in tho subject to cast
their votes upon the specific pro
positions. Another submission
may be looked to hopefully as
likely to "be sustained by effort
sufficient to ensure its approval
by the people ; and relief, al
though too late for the pending
Prosidensial election, will be in
time for 188S.
The proposition to amend the
Constitution so as to prohibit the
manufacture and sale of intoxi
cating liquors as a beverage was
defeated at the October election.
But the Supreme Court has hold
that such prohibition is attaina
able under the Constitution as it
is, and the policy of prohibition
by municipal action under the
powers delegated by the General
Assembly has been more than
once in the history of Ohio judi
cially sustained. The evils re
sulting from excessive drinking
are manifold and felt in every
portion of the State. Many plans
have been proposed, and the la
bors of many good men are giv
en to the effort to eradicate these
evils. The agitation for prohib
iting will continue, for however
misdirected, it is an honest strug
gle agaiust a real evil, for which
many believe prohibition to be
an adequate, if not the only j em
edy. But we cannot shui our
&-.
THURSDAY, JANUARY 24, 1881
eyes to the fact that prohibition
has failed wherever attempted,
that prohibition of the sale means
practically free trade, and that
while prohibition of the manu
facture may be made effectual,
this does not effect consumption
but merely forces the dealer to
sell goods made out of the State.
In the State of Maine, the num
ber of licensed dealers under
Federal law has increased 40 per
cent, in the last three years, and
the effect of unreasonable re
strictive law has been felt in the
increase of secret and uncontroll
ed drinking.
No reform is, in my judgment,
more desirable than to find some
common ground upon which con
servative men of all parties may
stand in opposition alike to pro
hibition and to fred-Jrade in li
quor which shall furnish adequate
legal restraint not of temperate
but intemperate drinking, and
not unduly interfere with the
right of individual liberty and
the duty of self-control. Per
haps no measure can be devised
that will fully accomplish this re-
sul. That which comes nearest
is, I am persuaded, the system of
license with graduated taxation.
By the graduation of the tax or
license fee, justice is done to
dealers, whose burden is thus
proportioned to the extent of le
gal protection he enjoys, and has
relation also to his opportunity
for mischief. By security before
license and before renewal, pow
er may be given todrive from the
trade men of known bad charac
ter, and those who have conduct
ed it illegally, and to confine its
privileges to law-abiding citizens
who keep orderly houses of en
tertainment. Without an amendment to the
Constitution the full benefits of
a proper system of liscense and
taxation cannot be had. Such
amendments proposed in 1851
and 1874 were defeated by small
majorities. A different result
might, perhaps, follow the sub
mission of this proposition by
the present General Assembly to
the qualified voters at the elec
tion in 1885. The alternative
amendment submitted in 1SS3,
which would have given power
to license, was cast in such form
as also to authorize-direct prohi
bition, or prohibition by arbitra
ry and excessive taxation, and
therefore lost the favor of many.
We have to deal, however,wilh
the Constitution as it is, but with
tho advantage of knowing, from
the labors of the Supreme Court,
that the act of 1883, commonly
known as the Scott law, is not
in conflict with the inhibition
against the passage of laws to li
cense this traffic. Although this
act ma not, in the legal or tech
nical sense, establish a license
system, it has some of its advan
tages, produces some of. its effects
and in practice largely partakes
of Jhe nature of a license law.
While it does not in direct terms
protect the dealer against inter
ference during the year, forwhich
he is compelled to pay a tax, it
indirectly insures his protection
in the undisturbed continuance
of his traffic, by the contribu
tions it exacts towards the dimu
nition of general taxation, and
by the general interest it thus
creates against prohibition or the
destruction of the trade. A com
munity to whose expenses this
traffic largely contributes and
whose taxes it diminishes will
not be inimical to its continuance
upon economic or financial
grounds at least. I do not believe
this law ought to be repealed,
but that the graduation of its
taxation and the withdrawal of
the power of municipal prohibi
tion, would convert into as just
and efficient a license law as is
consistent with the Constitution
al inhibition, without at all with
drawing tho force of any of the
reasoning upon which the rnia-
jorit.v of the Supreme Court sus
tained its constitutionality.
Nineteen j cars have elapsed since
the close of the civil war, dismissed
from arms and relegated to the
ways and works ot peace, more
than a million combatants. Time
has effaced roost ot the visible ra
vages of war, and nearly, it not
quite, all tho animodities engender
ed by the conflict, survive, if at all,
as mere political agencies, mischie
vous as far as they are active, but
constantly iosinr force. Even the
vast debt will probably be paid du
ring this generation, and with its
payment tho burthens of Federal
taxation may be bo diminished as
to afford an opportunity such as the
country has not enjoyed since tho
administration of Andrew Jackson.
The great monument ot victory,
the enduring assurance that the
"blood was not spilled, the treasure
not spent in vain, is the restoration
of the Union upon tho basis of the
abolition of slavery and the enfran
chisement of the slave. Color has
taken its place, in law, and with ro
DMnnn fn lArvnl wiallfc UnrAI tlin
American system, by tho side of in
herited wealth, place of birth and
other fortuitous circumstances of
life.as having an effect in determin
ing condition. That is left to con
duct, the result of character, and
white and black are both ensured
equal rights and equal opportunity
in the. presence of the law. Tho
habits and usage and prejudices of
slavery will doubtless long survive,
but the day will surely come, God
grant it may be soon, when even
without legal invention, no citizen
in any State will be treated as an
inferior, or denied the full equal
measure of equal rights accorded to
others, merely because he chanced
to inherit a black skin.
These prejudices, which exist as
fully at tho North as the South,
may hereafter give rise, (I do not
think they have done so yet.) to
the necessity to amend tho criminal
laws of our State. No legislation is
needed to establish the principle of
the absolute equality of rights be
tween white and black, or to fur
nish civil nc'ion for redress of inva-
sions. These are accompMshed by
the Federal constitution and the
common law as it prevails in Ohio
But a portion ot the civil rights
legislation of Congress has bfen de
clared unconstitutional by theSu
preme Court of the United S tates,
a nd inasmuch as the duty of protec
tion against inequality and discrimi
nation on account of color is thus
devolved upon the States, it may
become necessary for Ohio to act.
Hits decision license .no act of
wrong or oppresfcion. It mere'y
transfers the J.h eater of redress
from the Federal to the more nu
merous and accessible State legisla
tures and courts. Tho war was
rightly waged to vanquish the. arm
ed assertion of superior sovereignty
of the States made in defiance of
the express provision that ' the
Constitution and tho laws of the
United States made in pursuance
thereof shall be the Bupreme law of
the land, anything in the Constitu
tion or laws of tho State to' the con
trary, notwithstanding.'' But the
habitusl use of, and submisahn to
war powers has left tho minds of
many good citz ns in apt condition
to forget even untii now that the
Constitution lirowis reserves all
undelegated powers "to the State
respectively, or to the people " Cn
tfsr these circumstances the civil
rights act was passed, which under
took, not merely to prohibit legis
lation andjudicial action discrimi
nating against tho unequal rights of
men of color, but adopted for the
Federal Government the power of
police within the States for the pre
servation of human equality, and
the enforcement of equal rights.
Since tho adoption of the Four
teenth amendment, whitonnd black
have dwelt together in Ohio, and
prosecutions under the Civil Right
Act have been rare, so that few ca
es havo as yet occurred, suggesting
the necessity of an amendment of
our criminal laws so s to furnish a
substitute for the portion of the
Civil Rights Act thus condemned
by the Supreme Court. But every
man, jealous of his own rights.
should have a heart open to feel.
an ear opn to bear, an eye quick to
see the invasions of the rights ot
others, especially in this race, lone
bound in the chains of slavery, and
deprived of legal personality. Itis
for you, therefore, to consider
whether there is danger in this di
rection to any citizen of or iojourn
r in Ohio, nd if thero be, to pro
vide by apt legislation, in advance,
for prompt and severe punishment,
not discrimination, however, be
tween white and black, but fur
nishing the same relief aguinst tho
same wrong to both.
The condition of the State has
been so fully presented in the recent
Message of my honored predecessor,
that nothing further is lelt for m
to sy. I invoke the aid of all
good citizens without distinction of
party, for the General Assembly
and officers of the State. Wo are
entitled to it, for the State Gov
ernment, as the servant of the peo
ple always has a just claim to di
rection from its master. Without
such aid, tou and I may easily go
astray. With it, we,shaU be rein
forced in our labors, as well b for
tified in tho hope that Ohio, during
our brief term, maybe reserved
from the disaster of unwise legisla
tion and inefficient administration.

Birth Dsy Parly.
Last Wednesday, Jau, 19lh, was
the anniversary of Miss Lodie
Crawford's birthday. How many
birthdays have passed over Miss
Crawford's head, we are not pre
pared to Btate, indeed we did not
ask, as we fully realize that for
about twenty-five years of a young
lady's life she is almost "invariablv
''sweet sixteen'' and we rather
guess, had wj inquired, the answer
would havo been sixteen, but let
her age be as it may, we had a good
time, ns we always havo when at
Mr. Crawford's. There were thirty-five
young people present, and
it is useless for us to undertake to
tell of the enjoyment. If you can't
imagine it, just visit at Mr. Craw
ford's, and you can realize it for
yourself. We had some excellent
music, led by Miss Lizzie Brandt,
who was organist.
After spending soveral hours in
social enjoyment, we retired to our
homes, wishing Miss Lodie many
happy returns of her biuh-d-iy.

"Yes," she replied.
"Well, he is a man I expect to

"Are you going out to see an

"Yes," Dumley said, reluct

"Well," said the landlady's

very much either, and I will tell

'What did she do?' inquired

'Why, she ate her soup from
