Thompson, latb Chairman of the Democratic State Central Commit tee. l here Is great astonishment expressed throughout the State at the supcrsedure of John G. Thompson as the Chairman of the Democratic State Central Committee bv the new committee, who lately organized at Columbus. It Is universally admitted that Mr. Thompson has displayed a remarkable aptitude for that position, and that in the Industry and efficiency with which he has discharged its duties he has, never had a supe rior ia this State; iXb-6fHce with him has been no men) 'f Htaeeurc. Ho has najneaesriytju. iruiug to its mui-tArions dutloj,.arirrnofli(;brdit and system which he lutooluccil?,ihtothe"crl1ass, and to nis excellent suggestions, ou. wiumphs on the legislative ticket were ln great part owing. The Democracy of Ohio were fortunate In finding a gentleman who was willing to devote so much time to the labors of tho committee labors for which he received no renumeratlon, except the approval of a good conscience, which any one who rentiers service to the Democracy Is expected to have. Why lie should be suerseded is to the uninitiated an Inexplicable political blunder a mishap to the organization. The new chairman of the committee, it Bound and faithful Democrat, Mr.Dungan of Jackson, does not reside In Columbus, the central point, where the head oftho committee, lu our Judgment, should always be, and from which political Influence best radiate to all parts of the State. The coming campaign Is one that will require great energy Uon the part of the organization, and we deeply regret that the Democracy, at this Juncture, should be deprived of Mr. Thompson's organizing aud executive talent and experience 111 that position.
