Pole Raising at vInson-The WhIEs 81
Auntfngion up and d0lng.


We were present last Saturday with
our Scott and Graham friends at Vinton,
when, according to notice, they raised a
beautiful pole, 100 feet long. to which
was attached their flag, endorsed "Scott
and Graham-The Tariff of 1842," "
that same Infamous Wing tax laW.")
Half way down there was soup bowl
large enough to contain plenty of this
cordial to administer TO all fainting
Pierce men. 1t is truly splendid pole,
just such one as might be expected OF
the Wings out there, who never do
things by halves. We might name
some of the good and true, but We have
only time and room to say that our
friend SYMMEs, Wing candidate for As
SCISSOR, can't be mistaken-and our hon
est belief is that the district will consult
their own interest by electing him next
Tuesday, by unanimous vote.
After dinner, (and we with the bal
ance of our Gallipolis associates were
in the hands OF our friends A. Cush-
ing, Esq, addressed large and enthu-
siastic meeting, about two hours, and
was followed by the junior of the Jour-
nal, in a few remarks. The best feel
ing prevailed -all are confident of vic
tory, because all intend to do their share
in winning it. We were informed that
this was the third Scott pole that had
been raised in that township. We wish
the Wings in some other portions of the
county would initiate the example Of
their brethren in old Huntington. We
would say to all, go and do likewise.
We must not fail to notice the "Wind.
Mill man," Mr.. Fouts, who was on hand
with songs, and the true spirit of 1910.

JUDGES OF ELEcTIoN.-The act to
regulate the election Of State and
county officers, passed May Sd,
1852, provides that the polls shall be
opened between the hours Of six and
ten in the morning, and closed at six
in the afternoon OF the same day.
In such townships as may not be able to
count out and certify all the votes on the
sans day, the SD section of the same
law provides that the Judges shall place
the box containing the ballots, well se-
cured by lock and carefully sealed up,
under the charge of one of said Judges,
and postpone the further counting there.
OF until the next day. The counting
out is not to commence until the polls
are closed. It will also be borne in
mind, that one poll book. as under the
old law, is TO be returned to the County
Clerk at his Office, within two days from
the day of election.
As 10 District Assessor, the SD Sec
ton of the tax-law, passed April 18th,
1852, provides that the Judges of elec-
ton shall keep a separate poll book for
the election of District Assessor, and
the returns thereof, duly certified, as in
other cases, shall be made to the County
Auditor. II will be necessary, we sup
pose, under this section, to keep a sepa-
rate ballot box for Assessors. The
question as to whether additional clerks
shall be appointed, is left discretionary
with the Judges, we presume, as the
law says nothing on the subject. As the
judges and clerks receive So day, in
stead of 81, as under the old law, strict
economy will sugges: the propriety Of
conducting the election with one sci of
clerks, il the duties are not too onerous.
The clerk of the township and such 9TH
er person as the Judges shall choose,
shall serve as clerks of the eIection.--
We would refer judges to the act regu-
lating elections, first referred to, for a
more complete statement oftheir uties.

ierior to Tod in every respect, ex-
cept that of honesty and zeal for the
triumph Of Locofocoism. He stated
that Polk's administration was the
best that had ever governed this
country, and that if Pierce should
be elected the people might expect
that Folks would be taken as pat
tern. Modern Democracy is far,
very far ahead of Gen. Jackson-he
did not veto river and harbor bills,
Polk did-he was not in iavor Of
free trade, Polk was-he said Con-
gress had the power 10 protect
American labor and employment.
and improve Western rivers and
harbors, Polk and Pierce say Con-
gress has no such powers; Jackson
thought Congress ought to levy du-
ties with reference to protection as
well as revenue, Polk and Pierce
thought differently; Jackson was
known by the country, Of General
Pierce the people know nothing. Is
il strange that the Democracy that
entrust their colors to Franklin
Pierce should repudiate Jefferson,
Madison and Jackson 1t would be
strange il they did not. This Lieut..
Gov, and. Ex-lndian Commissioner
boldly asserted, which he knew to be
lie, that Gen. Scott says in his letter
Of acceptance that he is in favor OF
every foreigner serving one year in
the army before he can become a
citizen of the United States.
But we must close this notice. II
the State Central Committee sup
pose they are TO improve Pierce's
chances in Southern Ohio by such
speeches from such men. they were
never more mistaken in their lives.
II the Pierce Democracy was salts
fed with fridays representation,
we are, and so was every Wing pre-
sent, and we regret there was not a
larger number present. II this is
all and the best that can be said in
favor of the unknown of New
Hampshire, Mr.. Pierce is likely TO
have the opportunity to enjoy his
retirement.

MILITARY MEN.-The burden of much
of Medill's speech last Friday, was that
Gen. Scott was but a mere military
man. Is it not curious that a party
which had supported Gen. Jackson,
nominated Gen. Cass in 1848; that spent
four days in Convention between Gen.
Cass, Gen. Houston, Gen. Lane, and a
host of others with the same title. and
had finally united on Gen. Pierce-that
had sent out Col. Tod, Col Medill, Col.
Medary, and score or two of others,
with their gunpowder prefix. to talk
people into the support of that hero,
should find fault with the nomination OF
the old soldier and statesman, General
