Contest IN the Ninth Congressional DisfriCf-A
Close Run Bet,cee~ Tteo Docfou-Ihe Probable
Result
There is perhaps a higher pitch OF parry excite
ment this Congressional district, than in any
portion of the State Under the apportlonment OF
'42, when the Legislature was one branch whig,
and the other democratic 1, was classed as an
"uncerain" dIstrict,-embracing the strong de.
mocratc county OF Fairfield, the nearly tied county
OF Fayeite. AT the election OF ~, Col Medill,
democrat, was defeated by the election OF Col
Florence, whig though this was owing to Medill
not receiving the full democratic vote OF Fairfield
by several hundred and, accordingly, in ~, Col
Florence was beat by Col. Perrill, democrat In
that year, however, the wings obtained majority
In 10th branches of the Legislature, and among
other acts for the good OF the party" they passed
which the wing county of Madison was added to
this, the 9Th district. Accordingly in 70, Col
Perrill was beat by DR.. T. o Edwards, the present
incun bent. DIR. Edwards is the Taylor wing
candidate for reelection. His residence is at
Lancaster, Fairfield county. DR.. Edison B. Olds
OF this place, is the democratic nominee.
Although the district has been twice "reiined"
by the wings, and twice gained by them, strong
and sangulne effort is made by the democrats to
regain II. Each OF the candidates has made the
tour OF the district, and addressed the people at
their meetings in the several townships. The
friends of both are sangulne of success, and are
backing their opinions with gold watches, horses,
an In various sums OF money. Ii Is admitted that
old democratic Fairfield will give DR.. Odds lar
ger majority than she did for Col. Perrill, two
years ago and il Is also not much doubted that in
this county, (Pickaway) the home OF Olds, who
has great personal popularity on account of his
extensive mercantile and produce operations here
tofore. will lessen the usual small wing majority
on his opponent. The Joint whg majority of Fay
cite and Madison counties, has usually been nearly
equal with the democratic majority of Fairfield.
dred tree sol voters and il is somewhat of a
race between the two doctors to get them NV
best information is, that most of them will vote
for DR.. Edwards if so, he will probably be elect
ed the only contingency being the claimed in
creased democratic cote in Fairfield.
