Tin : RESIT rn uniLITY , Wo are again or , the eve n ( a campaign , and the great ias , ao that has divided this otato for many yeam forces itself agail upon the p ctrl1llo. The anti-monopoly wave which' swept Nebraska Iasi fall like a prairie fire has not nlbstdetl. The pro(1uc'em of this stale still insist that pubhacarriera must ho restricted from lev ying blackmail upon communities and ttatrons by exorbitant tolls , and they justly hold the party in power rosponsi hlp for the abuses to which railroads have aUhjocted' our people. The republican lealere in this atato , from Lairl to Mna. derso11 , pledged that party last fall to redress - dress the wrongs from which our produc- era have suffered for years. Every to- publican candidate front Da wca to hum. phroy was outspoken in favor of railroad - road legislation that would reduce passenger and freight tolls and place the property of corporate monopolies on per. fact equality with the property of lndi vi(1unls. Thcso pledges wore no sooner made than broken. A republican speaker elected as auclt by the moat , solmmu pledges In favor of antimonopoly legislation - lation , violated his word of honor and in duianco of all decency and precedent appointed - pointed a committee to inveatigato rail. road abuses front the pronounced oppou onto of investigation. Ho packed the railroad committee with the brazen tools of the U. P , and B. & M. , and throttled all railroad legislation - tion through these corporation coppers. And when the senate which was comprised - prisod in majority of anti-monopolists did enact a wholesamo and reasonable railroad law , the republican house , through the dovojish machinations of the railroad lobby and the infamous rulings of the speaker , rejected title bill and epught to substitute anotltor that was known to ho unooliatitutlonnl The disgraceful scones enacted by a corrupted republican house last winter in voting a million of dollars of taxes' to consummate tire most rotten jobs are still fresh in the public mind and they cannot ho condoned. The honest republican masses know that their party under corrupt leadership and through the blighting influence of the railroads has boon Tocreant in its trust. trust.No matter how nmch republicans may revere tire grand old party that saved the republic , they cannot sacrifice the pres. oat and future by countenancing such misrule as has boon practised in the name of the party in this state for years. If the party will not reform itself by an honest effort from within theft it must be taught its duty by defeat. For more titan ten years the auti moue poly element of the republican party has vainly battled for justice and roforu within the party lines. Last fall they sought to achieve those reforms out side of party lines , find the republicans lived up to their pledges last winter , had theymactedlaws to vu an oziul to extortion and discrimination , lead they purified their primaries by law , they would have restored public confidence mud rallied all republicans under the old flag.

It is wonderful how well such men have succeeded - ceeded , Jerry Wilson who was with Bob Ingersoll in defending Dorsey , was once a member of congress , I think from Indi- nna. After leaving congress ho came to Washington to practice and ho now snakes forty or fifty thousand dollars a year , Shollabarger , Wilson's partner , was once an Ohio member of congress. He has also niadon fortune at the law in Washington , Roscoe Conkling makes a good many thousand yearly by his Wash- mgton practice , and I understand Joe McDonald is only waiting until after the Presidential nominations to decide upon opening a law office at the National Capital - ital , Vanderbilt is at Saratoga , which is now in fact time sunlmor political centre of the United States. He loafs about the piaz am of his Imotcl , sits with his feet on the tailing , and tells every one he is out of business for good. A day or two ago a lady friend of mine wile wanted a pot corn treated , called on a chiropodist , and hero she saw the railroad millionaire seated in the corn doctor's chair and wincing while he paired off one of his many corns. Emory Storrs is booming Arthur. Emory expected the attorney generalship when it was given to Brewster. I wonder - der if ho is looking out for his own chances in the next cabinet. GARY. Beaten Before the Battle. Cleveland Leader. The friends of Senator Pendleton declare - clare thremselves discouraged over the outlook in their state. They frankly admit - mit that the probabilities of the state going republican are constantly mi the increase , and that whatever chances the , denmocrts possessed at the beginning have been destroyed by subsequent events. All thus tallies with the fact stated by one of our promitlontNew York exchanges that the best informed democrats of that city gave Ohio up. That the democrats are beaten before the main battle takes place is evidenced denced by the fact that they are no longer boastful. Hero and there a country editordoludes himself with to a belief that everything is safe for a party triumph , but the betterpostedDe nocratic journals of the cities sing very low. 'T'hey ' set out with the proud boast that they would bind Hamilton and Cuyahoga counties to the chariot wheals of Democracy , and carry tire state by an extraordinary majority. In imagination they saw the a- ! lied forces of the saloonists and Porno- crate sweeping down with the power of an avalanche upon time republican line of battle in front , while the temperance army made a aimilar attack in time rear , time whole ending with the disastrous discomfiture - comfiture of tune legions led by Forakur and Rose. That vision Ilas perished al. most as quickly as did Jonah's gourd , The donlomt of faction has seized upon tue democratic organization , the saloon keep era are at variance , time Germans are returning - turning to their old party allegiance , the Irish arc secretly preparing inn many places for a revolt against democracy - racy , and overyworo the taxpayers are , up in arms in defense of the Scott law , Hoadlyis disgusted with the situation and the rand old art is'tired ' mid aiek of Hoadl = and his "new denmocrac y " Tu a tamerunce democrats are ready to bolt and even the 1lroilbi- ionists , as in Crawford county , refuse to make a prohibitory amendment a test of party fealty. Thus the "deuce" is to pay along time whole democratic lino. Tire party has had as rude awakening from its bright drean of a few weeks ago and sees nothimm but disaster and ruin staring it in the face. Neither the money of Hoadly nor that of his monopolistic and ru isellimg friends , time rullinn influence of the Cincinnati Enquirer , time bossism of John Earloy , or all combined can chock tire tide which is beariu time party on to defeat. In the nleamitnno time Republicans , conscious of tjleir strength , are jubilant over time brightening prospect , and majortiea ranging from twenty thousand to forty tiiOU and are claimed. It is quite evident that time Democratic jig is up , and nothing remnains but to ring down the curtain and 1put out the Sr a0 ' MgRk , a { ytq 9 4i1r , A THE GREAT b RV1AN REM ( C RES Rheumatism , Foural ia , Sciatica , numba9o , Backache , Ileadacche , Toothache , NuroTbrnulNnep"va + fiNrvdnaRCUlar. , rlur , , . , Nced. .
