Harrison and Held.
It is a clean aud creditable ticket
tost
that the Republican convention has,
after the pandemonium of nearly a
week, put into the field. The nominees
stand, in the language of the triumphant
Chauncey M. Depow, for "the policy,
foreign and domestic, the industrial
measures, and the administrative acts
of Benjamin Harrison." Upon these
issues the Republicans have now olected
to stand squarely, and to win or lose in
the campaign—tho McKinley tariff, the
Force bill and the record of the Harrison
administration. These aro the logical
issues and Harrison is their logical
champion. If the Democratic party,
with its logical candidate, Grover
Cleveland, and the issues for which be
Stands, shall win, the victory will bo as
»editable as it will be significant ; if,
on the other hand, the decision of the
American voters shall be the other way,
we have the satisfaction of knowing
that in Harrison the country will have
at least a decent and reasonably safe
President, impregnable against tho forces
of free silver and with tho temptations
to jingoism and political fence building
that marred his first term to a large
extent eliminated.
The battle at Minneapolis, all can
in retrospect, was from the
start a conflict between an admirably
disciplined and strongly entrenched
regular army under the masterly
generalship of Depew, loyally seconded
by Chris. Magee, McKinley and othors,
opposed by disorganized bands of bush
whackers captained by such gueri llas
Quay, Platt, Clarkson, Foraker, Mahone,
Reed and renegades of their calibre anil
the puny aid, later in the fight, of little
corporal Higgins of Delaware. The
Mishwhackcrs made the most noise, but
the Harrison men had and held tho
votes. When the real issue was joined,
the Quays, the Clarksons, the Platts
and the Mahones were simply nowhere
4 and they dragged down with them tho
man who could liavo retired from pub
lic life a short month ago with the
proud record of having twice had tho
Presidential nomination of a great party
within his grasp and having twico de
clined the honor. But Blaine temporized
at the wrong moment with ill-timed and,
under the circumstances, dishonoring
ambition, and he steps off the American
stage to-day a back number; the dis
credited wooden horse with whose aid
the tricky and unscrupulous mutineers
of Republicanism had hoped to scale
tho citadel of Harrisonian Troy.
Tho Republican party is best clear of
such men, of its Quays, Clarksons,
Platts and Mahones, as well as of the
little Delaware boss who, though in
debted to Harrison for tho placing of
Federal pationage where it would
strengthen his grip, got demoralized at
the eleventh hour by the smoko and
pyrotechnics of Quay and his confed
erates, turned tail and went into a
spiracy to throw the vote of his State to
seme rival of his benefactor. But

The report of the Ohio state board of

eh more successfully than iu New
England. Manufactures have increased
d protectionist logic would require
the tiller of tho soil to bo correspond
ingly enriched by the beneficent "borne
market" thereby brought to his very
door. But the cold figures show that,
inritejid oMhis, the value of farm lauds
has fallen from $684,000,000 in 1880 to
$569.000,000 lu 1890—a decline of
$115,000,000! What 1 b tho matter with
the grand "homo market" that protec
tion is not building up in Ohio ?
The silver plank is
publican party in its lack of courageous
clearness and directness. It stands for
the timidity of compromise
the conciliation of the voters of the sil
produclng states represented on the
committee by Senators Teller and Jones.

The Democratic nomination election
Saturday afternoon passed off very
creditably and iiarmoninusly, and the
result is accepted without, so far
know, any soreness or even suspicion of
unfairness. There was a large vote
polled, but it was, according to all re
ports that have reached Evkry Even

ized tho Republican sheriffalty contest
In tho city districts where the colored
vote was moat conspicuous, was
to be remarked by every
patent
reasonable observer. Thorn was some
drunkenness; that Is always tobe
pected on such occasions, but there was
an absence of the rioting that marked
the Republican primaries, and there
little evidence of repeating,
bribery or cheating, that they formed
unimportant feature and had
ceivable effect on the result. Wo think
it entirely just to say that
election in this county has boon con
ducted in a more ordoriy and fair man
ner for many yoars.
Hence tho tioket made on Saturday
comes before tho voters with absolutely
stain on it« legitimacy. There aro
many, of course, who would have pre
ferred a different list of candidates, but
having been defeated in a square
test, there will be a genoral acquiescence
by all such in the duly ascertained
choice of the majority. Ex-Auditor

manifest from the flattering vote given

Personally Mr. Toner is very popular

among Democrats but ho has also many
warm friends among tho Republicans
of this county. As to Mr. Kirk, the

Whether it be magnetic or purely
monetary, the choice of the Republic
party for its candidate does not in any
way help it to a
matter of principles. No matter who
stands for the party, the party to-day
stands, as it lias stood for years, for a
one-sided,
iquitous tariff; for a civil service reform
that professes much and performs noth
iug; for pension legislation that long
ago passed all bounds of possiblo and
permissible need, and is now only
instrument of tho most disgraceful
prostitution of govermental power and
misuse of tho peoplo's money—stands,
in short, for tho establishment of any
unsound policy that may servo tho
sottish ends of its party leuders, and for
the abandonment of any principle, how
ever true and tried, which may stand in
tho way of such political speculators
Blatt, M. & Quay, and tho
countless hordes of Clarksons, Wana
makers, Raums, and their kind.
