SOUNDS LIKE INDIANA.
Exciting Tlmos In the Ohio Le-litlntnre, Which Savors Hooslerdom. There were exciting and disgraceful scenes in the Ohio House of Representatives Wednesday evening when the Demo crats attempted to pass some of the “ripper” bills, as they are called. The Republicans attempted dilatory tactics and Speaker Hysell at length refused to recognize the Republican members. They became furious, and both Democrats and Republicans were Boon on their feet and many about the Speaker’s desk shaking their fists at him. When the Speaker ordered them to their seats and threatened to call the Sergeant-at-arms to compel them to do so, several Republicans dared him to do it. Representative Troyer shouted out that he could “lick any two Republicans,” and for a time it seemed as if the session would break up in disorder.
