The only true issue in the coming conflict
in Ohio is, as the New York Jefersonian tru-
ly SAYS, between IAN on the one side, with
all his noblest- enc rgies marshalled for the
strife, and MONEY, with the selfish, the de-
graded and the. dish onest on the other. True
it is, too, that the bank conservatives did
once possess the greatest portion Of the
strength of the dem, ocratic party; but no,c
the, G tables are tmmedph The antagonists
of the anti-democratic paper money system
now number all the G reat intellectual lights
Of the party; the mas sesi with but few ex-
ceptons here and ther being. as they ever
are, on the side of free principles and against
monopolies, corporate or otherwise. r..-g
Whether the great conflict between Man
and Money will be decided foreper in Ohio,
at the next election, is II question of much
doubt. The advocates Df plumber, who de-
sire to live and enrch themselves wit..out
earning, cannot be indl iced to give up at
once all they love so WI H.. We must fight
on-press on-vigorousl y and bravely to ar
rest all further aggress ions of the enemy,
should the coming cont est eventuate dlsas-
trously to the cause Of genuine freedom
freedom from Bank oppression We must
fight on, fiercely, steadily and unitedly, even
should the democratic p;trty obtain power in
the Legislature. The B;inkers will be there.
They will crowd the lobbies and offer their
g favors" to save their punder laws and re.
tain the privileges they have received in vio'
laton Of the Constitution Of the United
! States. ~. f..-
q The time is rapidly approaching when on
one side or the other every politician will be
obliged to enroll and stand erect before his
fellow man, associated with truth, or fall
back upon Federalism and all its odious doc
trines. The contest we repeat is Man against
Money, and if not decided finally in few
days, it tpM be at some future day. We
fear not for our side --that Of, Man--we
know too we'll the free and noble spirits en-
listed in its favor--we know well the perse
vering and industrious c character of its advo
Gates. Always vigilant they never allow th'
enemy to obtain single, advantage; apt
when TRAITOR is found in! the ranks, he j
at one blow separated from the pure in hear
) and sound in mind. With the powerful ant
effective forces arrayed against Monopoly
and which continue to receive daily add
tons, we feel confident of triumph .fnall!!
-of great and glorious victory over thu
Money power. More encouragement is still
found in the fact that the vmdicators of the
: unjust and outrageous Paper Money System
=. are rapidly passing away. Federalism itsel
feels within its ranks the "progresiven prin
. ciple which is so budyant at present in de
!, mocracy., Changes Of opinion, on the all i'm
t portant subject of the currency, from banl
o to anti-bank are becoming quite common,
: The leaders alone, intent only on plunder
: ing the people, keep up hue and cry, ant
g throw dust as Of yore into the eyes of thos'
n Of the multitude who listen to their expla
r nations of such political topics as are, fron
}. time to time, being agitated; but the mist
: being gradually dispelled by the light of ex
: perience and the teachings of Truth.
