THE CENTUHY MARK. The Centennial Prlfhratton of the Establishment of U*. Order tail Civil Government In the Northwest Territory at Marietta, Ohio—The Old Tovh A;.tia In » Ulnae of Glory anti Knlhnslasm. Maiurtta, O., July 18.—The celebration which commenced here yesterday, and which is to contiuu ; till Thursday night is to commemorate the centennial anniversary of tlie origin of law, government and civil institutions in the Northwest Territory. The city glows with radiant decorations. A score of ornate arches, rich with flags, hunting and silken streamers span the streets like glittering rainbows. The green and lovely public squares and parks, of which Marietta has many, are dotted with the white tents of soldiers and the warriors of to-day tread over the stately tombs of the knights of a departed rqce. By the river side, on the bank of the Muskingum, near its junction with the Ohio, has been erected a spacious and sighily auditorium, in which the exercises are to be held. It is a substantial building, and has a seating capacity of flve thousand. The auditorium is fitted with rn eflormous stage, upon which a radiant historical pageant is to be produced some night during the week, presenting in a picturesque and truthful way strong scenes from pioneer life in the West. The music for the celebration is bring furnished by the faiunns Elgin hand, which played at both National conventions, and by the military band from tht Columbus barracks, which was ordered here by General Sheridan after his illness ss a token of his interest in this great historical celebration. Eight thousand people gathered in the auditorium to see the exercises open by the rendition of a tuneful centenuia! ode composed for the occasion by Prof. Saroni, of .Boston. The Elgin baud and a well trained chorus of on" hundred and fifty voices uuited in rendering the ode. Governor Foraker thou made a short address of welcome. The Governor said: Ladies and Gentlemen—We are met here on au interesting spot and an Interesting occasion, not, however, so much because ol what Is transpiring here this afternoon, as by reason of what happened here one hundred years ago to-day. It was on this identical spot at that time that elvll government was instituted. Here, at that time, Arthur St. Clair and his associates In the administration of our Terri to rial Government were inaugurated and inducted into ottlre. Here they commenced their labors. From this spot went forth the olessings of government that so many m illiont of people have enjoyed who hove since populated our great Northwest. The cent ury that has since passed is the most brilliant, measured by the promotion of human welfare, that has ever been known in the his tory of the world. Brilliant, because during this century mankind has been everywhere elevated, not simply in Ohio, the Northwest, and the United States, but throughout the whole civilised world, this has been the case Every student of history knows that ttiis has been largely due to the success that has beer achieved by self-civil government in these United States. Our success here has been an encouragement and inspiration, not only to us, but to the millions ot Europe as well, and all here who have imrtci paled in what has been wrought know and ap predate that oar success has been largely due to the fact that our institutions were founder: in the begianlpg, and have ever s ue • beer maintained, upon religion as one of theicchlei corner-stones. Our forefathers brourht re

ligton with them to New England; they car rictl it with them through the struggles foi American independence; they brought it totbt Northwest Territory. They wrote in the ordinance of lift? that relig on among otbci thugs was essential to good government. Blsliop Gilmore, of Cleveland, was the orator of the <|»y. lie chose for his subject, “Religion anti Civil Government1' His oration was a scholarly one, pregnant with suggestive thought. He t reated the subject from a Roman Catholic standpoint, In the evening, another great andience gathered to listen to short addresses from President If. J. Morrison and a number of well-known Protestant clergymen. The exercises were only preliminary, but they drew to the etty a crowd of fifteen or twenty thousand people. To-day, when the spirited celebration logins, there will doubtless be a hundred thousand strangers in the city. Governor Foraker is keeping his house open, and is entertaining a number of prominent guests. Among‘those now here are representative; of most of the StateHistorical societies. Mrs. Martha J. Lamb, editore ;s of the Mnaanut of Amorim* Hint ary; Mayor Amos Smith of Cincinnati and several of the heads of executive departments at Washington; Senator Palmer, of Michigan; Jndge i. B. Cassidy, of the Su preme bench of Wisconsin; Hon. B. Wilson Smith, of Indiana. A delegation from Washington and one from the Ohio Society of New York are expected to-night. The Ohio Centennial commissioners, who are to receive the guests at the Marietta, Cincinnati and Columbus Centennials are here, and hare at abund i nee of work in welcoming the guests wio ore coming by the hnndreds from all directions.

THE COMING CAMPAIGN. It Will Be a Battle Cpon a Higher Than a 1’ereoDat Plane. “ The sober second thought.” to use h trite saying1, of the Republican party of the country evidently doe* not bring with it a feeling of elation over the nomination of General Harrison to the Presidency. That he is a weak candidate in a great party crisis is patent to the observant among those on whom he must rely for support. - During his political career he has never demonstrated his ability to carry Indiana against a united Democracy. He was elected to a State office in 1860, when the Republican party was united on one candidate for the Presidency, while the Democracy were divided between two, with Belt and Everett, a fourth combination, draining the divided party of conservatives who were not wholly satisfied with either Douglass or Breckinridge. In 1864 he was elected Reporter of the Supreme Court in the midst of the excitement of the war. In 1876 he was overwhelmingly defeated by “Blue-Jeans” Williams for Governor. Four years later Democratic dissension permitted the election of a Republican Legislature. General Harrison, who had not been mentioned as a candidate, was fortunate enough to capture the caucus nomination for Senator.

His vote against ih»Chiiyese Restriction bill invited the implacable hostility of California and the Pacific slope. His attityde on the bill legalizing the importation of pauper labor from Europe under contract will weaken him everywhere that American labpr has been subjected to this unnatural and un-American competition. The labor organizations in his own State and throughout the country recognize in him the persistent and uncompromising opponent of such organisations. But this is not to bo a campaign of personalities. The battle will be upon a higher plane, and the overshadowing' issue will be that of the tariff.—Cincinnati Enquirer. REPUBLICAN DECAY. nr the Party of The nomination of Harrison was made in despair by the weary, wornout delegates who had been struggling for a week against the plotting and Juggling of th« Blaine conspirators. It was not the outcome of a deliberate choice; it was the o»% alternative of the nntijBtaine element While a majority of tiie convention would have nominated Blaine had it dared, there was a compact and determined minority in opposition,and the more prudent of the Blaine leaders feared that if their favorite were nominated by a ample majority of tbs convention he could not receive the doited support of the party. The m*n would not or Greshsia.&nd Allison wore not regarded as at all

siswncy m his candidacy prevented a concentration upon McKinley and the aonvention was reduced to the alternative of taking Harrison or sweltering for days in the torrid work of finding a “dark horse." Harrison was, therefore, a sort of Hobson’s choice or rather a choice of evils. What strength has the Republican nominee? the reader will ask. No personal strength whatever. As cold-i blooded as John Sherman, he is much more aristocratic in his bearing. Without executive training, without ability or statecraft, without personal following, he can not fail to prove a weak candidate. His six years’ service in the United States Senate showed him to be a man of mediocre talents and of slight equipment for the public service. His name is not connected with any important measure of legislation. He originated nothing nor in any way impressed his personality upon Federal legislation. He has been regarded by the leading men of his own party a! a political failure. He was beaten for Governor of Indiana lit 1876 in a canvass in which the whole power of the Grant Administration was thrown in his favor. Ho was defeated for United States Senator in Indiana last year after a disgraceful participation in a partisan ejection of honestly and fairly-elected Democratic members of the Legislature. How can such a man lead his party to victory? It is charged and the proofs will no doubt be forthcoming that he was a sworn and active member of the KnowNothing organization. His opposition to the legislation prohibiting the immigration of Chinese was presented as an argument against his nomination by the delegates from the Pacific slope at Chicago. These two blemishes in his political record will repel thousands of voters who might otherwise be induced to support him. He is a defensive candidate from the very beginning. No aggressive campaign in his behalf is possible. His supporters will be kept busy explaining and apologizing for his political aberrations during the entire canvass. One needs not to be able to rend the stars to foretell the re-elec-tion of Grover Cleveland in November next.— Harrisburg (Pa.) Patriot. WHO BEARS THE BURDEN?

A Republican Argument Whose Silliness Wm Exposed Tears Ago. It used to be the fashion among the beneficiaries of the high tariff to assert that tile foreign manufacturer who sends goods to this country pays the duty on them for the privilege otf getting into our markets; and, although the preposterous idea has long been repudiated by those advocates of protection who hold themselves to responsibility in argument, it is still avowed by a few brain-clouded Congressmen who are the faithful representatives of Eastern interests, i Mr. Jackson (Rep.), of Pennsylvania, in his speech against the tariff reduction bill in the House, asserted thalt “ last year foreigners paid millions of tariff duties tor the privilege of getting to our markets, and then imported and sold us many million dollars’ worth off iron, nails, glass, cotton and woolen goods, and even wool and farm products. ’ And Mr. Peters (Rep.), at Kansas, in his speech, said: “ I assert that the tariff is not a tax. unless the purchaser of the protected article pays more tor it in consequence of the duty imposed than he would if the duty was not imposed.” That this assertion is not true; that the idea that it is the foreign manufacturer who bears the duty imposed on the goods which he sends to this country is ridiculously untrue is man ife-t from one single consideration; U it were true, then every Government on the earth could force the people of other countries to pay all its revenues. The United States would not need an internal revenue system, nor any other scheme of collecting money from its own people; it would require nothing more than a well adjusted high protective tariff that would extort all ite revenues from foreign peoples—and every other country could pay the expenses of its Government in the same fray. It is a little strange that the statesmen and political economists of the world have never made tills remarkable discovery before.

The tribute estimated on ail protected home manufacturers amounts to $600,000,000 a year—and it is this vast sum annually poured into the manufacturing States that explains their enormous wealth. — St Louis Reputh As Seen by a Republican.
