This viiij wa? tK ex ! i an 1 exi;rrrrati' tensive to have !een ae ulental. It was ihc delibemte and pre-arranged .-yttemttf the Republican campaign. It was intended to lead the public to believe that Ohio was iu a per fect furor of : enthusiasm over Me Kinley, and for a time it served its purpom. Not only the Republican newspapers and Republican johti cians lent thenolviw to the decep tion, but JMajor MeKinley himself never allowed such a little thing as the truth to stand in the way of his making a good joint. Ho has utter ed moredeliWrate falsehoixjion the fetnmp in the past'; six weeks than have ever been crammed down Ohio throats in any six years before. Nowhere but in Ada, where lie knew that he would be contradicted, has he omitted to declare that "the wool of tho world is lower' as one expla nation of the fall iu price of Ohio wool. In every speech but the one at Ada, he ban declared that tin was cheaper than ever Ik fore, lie de clares everywhere that ho has "a list of fifty article in common use which are cheaper to-day I than when the Tariff bill was passed," but he never cites anything from his list except sugar, boots and slbe., binding twine und other articles,' which have de clined lccau3o the-tax on them was removed or reduced, an explanation of tlu; decline in price whiclijie in variably omits to give. MajoivMr Kinley has missed no opportunity to add to the hrdo of blutf in which his campaign is enveloped by theat rical exhibition. His persona! par ticipation in the contemptible tin plate fraud at Pbpua was only one instance in which he has lent him tplf to methods worthy of a constab ulary contest in ward politics. The fame of the Piqua perform ance has spread to every little ham let. Tin-plate bulges are leing laughed out of sight and the expres sion, "tin-plate liar," originated at the beginning of the campaign by the Republican, as a term of oppro brium for democrats, has lecoine in stead a term of derision applicable to the Republican and is so under stood throughout the btate. "Wool can't be mentioned at a public meet ing without raising a laugh and the farmers weai for badges tufts of wool on a ribbon, with the inscription, "21 eents Hr pound;! this is what the tariff has done for us." The gross exaggeration of the size and enthu siasm of Republican meetings has reacted also. No Republican paper ventures now to put over seven or eight thousand eop!e at meetings that two weeks ao would have been !r rated at tiltv thousand, and it is a standard joke throughout the State, iu Speaking of the size of a meeting to ask whether the figures ''arc Re publican measure.?' The campaign of bluff, bluster ind lies has been transformed" into cine of explanation, evasion and denial. How completely the Republican crest has been clipped and Republi can bnmptiousntts chilled is snown by a little incident that was not aa incident of the joint debate at Ada. The Republicans had arranged a scheme to bolster up the tin-plate fraud and stampede the meeting while it was in progress. Telegrams were to be sent from concerns iu i j vnnur.s manufaeturinp eltk-. reading to the ekeet that re )iitpiI to-Jav fr many hundr-d !xeof tin plate." The Pitna cotiecnt v.m t telegraph ftn offer df 1,0() to any nr. who would prye that their ptuff wag not real tin plate. A ColntnLus chem ist, a Repnl1ieftT!, wko analyzed a cample of the ti-i and pronounced it iron instead of Fteel. VH t tele prraplt an explanation that, perhaps, it illicit have Wen f-teel.

Wi!ki:i:-xi was ?uLirfittcl to it Home time Ix'tore it was printed in New York und thut the ninttnn of ;isig it wadiicttsged with Major MeKinley and the Republican State GommitttH'. It is not to he expected that the Republicans would admit that the -artielo was approved by Major MeKinley and the Commit tee, or that they advised the Cleve land pajwr to print it, but the fact that, after consideration bv the Major and hi.s Committee, it was printed in a Republican organ in S'ew York and then reprinted in the Republican organ of Ohio it sug gestive, as is the fact that Major McKin'ey 1ms a? yet made nopublic condemnation of this feature of the campaign on his side. I -2"evspMpc rs nnd Their Fricmts. J, A newspaper, if it has any brains, conscience and muscle, brick of it, must continually decide 1-ctv.een do ing its duty and injuring its pocket. In any position but that of an edi tor the public is able to separate the individual home from the collective citizen, lint if the editor does not phase them it's his porket they aim at. Thus it is that newspapers learn who their friends are. The man who reads a newspaper and admires it all the year round, yet gives his business snpport to some other con cern whose principles he detests, is t ot a friend of the foimcr paper. Admiration hne will not run a newspaper." Sooner or later such admirers will lin l that the object of their aO'ectionr has become wedded to other ways that they do not ad mire in other words, a newspaper is 'com polled in order to live,?t eek the friendship of tlKse who are not so platoeic in their love, but unite that practical esteem with sentiment that binds mutual admiration in other professions. There arp too many men wdio expect an editor to slave in defense of theirpct notions and hobbies, advocate, jheir views against the strongest opposition and coolly withhold the bushiess support by which alone smaH (newspapers can live. j Talk about a newspaper having a public duty to perform!, an editor having to labor for his principles, is cheap when others stand back and, while extending a lukewarm neu trality with one hand are tilling their pockets with the other ' hand, as a result of the editor's labor for his principles which they admire but do not support.

One thing, however, is certain. Tho Speaker of tho next House, when, nnally elected, m usl a(proacif the framing of his committees with fear aid trembling. He will be confronted, first of all, with the precedent which h.-.s bccom an unwritten 1 iw, and which, if fol lowed, would place at the- head of every committi-e in the next Con-gre.-'i the Democrat who stood lint in the iniiiorit3 on that committee dating Sjeaker Reed's dispensa tion.. . To olioy this law will be to give tho chairmanships bf , alout foity out of the fifty-six committees to .Southern men, and to risk tho immediate cry of sectionalism. It tlie rule be disrcirarded, there iwill be no "end of fi ic: ion, for men wtms e long service. cx;ei ler.ee, ability and position, entitle them to recognition will not bo superseded without a protest. -Tli'j situation isiu-t only interest in:, but it is important as a factor in the canvass which is now so hear a'- band. Tjie present conditions, t.'K?, :tre novel.
