Otherwise, that this consoling intelligence

Gra ve charges against the official and per

been brought forward by Mr. Fernando

The leading newspapers throughout the
country are engaged in discussing, pro and
con. the further continuance of the income
tax. The argu-iients against the tax are
generally based on its unjust and inj iisito
rial nature; while those in its favor allege
that it bears heaviest on the wealthy classes,
and that, comparatively speaking, it is not
burdensome to the laboring'pcople.

'The Committee in the Watt-Diamond
contested election case awarded the seat to
the rightful occupant. Mr. Watt, on the eve
of the adjournment of ihe Loeisiature. The
frauds proven, were of so flagrant a charac

from signing the majority report. Thus
justice has oucc wore triumphed over wrong.
The Governor, on Tuesday last, returned
the appropriation bill to the House with
some objections the Legislature having
failed to designate the mode of accounting
for the expenditure of two hundred thous

House at once affixed the proper provision,
and returned it to the Governor for approv

The Eilroa Bill Vetoed-'
The "Oinuihus" Railroad bill, as it was
called, wau'vetoed by Gov. Gearys on 'wo
gro-jnds: first, becase it was unennstitu
tional, and, secnnJIy b.nsiuse it was inexpe
dient. While we admit the force of Gov.
Geary' objections, we cannot but expres
our regret, that the opportunity tor the de
velopement of the North Western portion
of the State has been lo-t. Our people were
deeply iiitei-esfled in the project, and will be
very generally disappointed. It .-was utii
versaliy'supposed that th;lOi dsia the Sink

we thought if it was to be dono, it was only
equitable and just that our section.- which so
much needs development, should have its
fair share. '
We are not in the habit of commending
the acts of Senator Wallace, but deem if on

The Late Elections.
In Connecticut. English, the Deratcratio
candidate for Governor, was e'ected by a
majority of 835. The Republicans have a
nP'j n-ityol 1 in "the Senate, and U iu the
House. NodoubtlheDem.tcracy will claim
this as a great triumph, hut there is no proof
that public feniiiiient has thai gcd in the
least. Knelish and Jewell were the respec
tivc candidates on t ) occasions previtus to
this. In lSf.8 Enjilifh ( DemO had 764 ma
jority, an 1 in ISG9 Jewell (Rep.) had 411
majority." And hence, at least, the Demo
cracy have won but a barren victory, not
bavin secured the control of the State Gov
ernment. The result, this year, is due to
the Finai lness of the vote. a. heavy snow
storm having kept many Republicans too
many f whom are fair weather men from
the polls.
The municipal elections in Ohio resulted
generally: satisfactory to the Republicans.
Iu Cleveland, our majority is 33J more than
ast spring, although we lost two members
in the city, but still retain our iiinjoru v.
Cincinnati gives an average Republican ina
nity of over 3.000. and each Board of the
Councils is largely Republican. Columbus.
Toledo, Lima, Massillon, and. in fact, near
ly cuy in jortu t tcn in the State, give
the usual Republican majorities.
One of the glorious results of the Cincn
nati election lor iiicml-ers ot ine cmmiooi
Board, is the defeat of Rev. Thomas Vick-
ers, the leader of the ami Bible movement.
This man did more than any other memlier
ot the former beard to effect the exclusion
of the Bible from the public schools of Cin
cinnati. last fall,- and now the people have
properly rebuked him. He ran lar behind
his ticket. The new School Board is said
to consist of 26 members in favor ot reading
the Bible in the public choo!s, and 22 op
pascd to it. We rejoice at this result. It
proves that Cincinnati is sound morally, as
well as politically.

The disnosi; ioii to stir up sectarian preju
