Stand 10 your Guns!

Returns enough have been received from
this State to show that the abolitonists Of
the Reserve alone saved the Fremonters
from disgracefIl defeat on the l4th. tits
alleged that thOusunds'of illegal votes were
poled in that region and that hundreds of
NEGROES WERE ALLOWED TO
VOTE, in violation. Of the Constitution =
by a strong and united effort, it is thought
by good judges that the State can be redeem
cd and its vote given to James Buchanan
Our candidate is safe enough without Ohio
the elections in Pennsylvania and Indiana
having demonstrated that Fremont does not
stand the ghost of chance for the Presi-
dency But we want Aboltionism rebuked
in Ohio We don't want to see the State
governed by AbOlitionists on the Western
Reserve

The Vote in VmtOn County.

The No. OF votes polled in Vinton County
for Governor last fall was ,675. No. polled
on the 18th inst, 1902. Increase 227.--
Last fall the democratic strength was 9S7 /;
that Of the opposition 749. Trinble vote
in addition was 40. Clear democratic ma.
jority SO. On the l4th the democrats poll.
ed on Congressman l,Ol land the opposition
SS7. Clear democratic majority l24, show
ing:a gain over last year Of25. This is fair
calculation, because, with the exception Of
the Governor the 90 Trimble votes went
unanimously for the Republican ticket
Really we had but SO majority last year. On
Supreme Judge the democracy have clear
majority Of only IS. Thus while we have
gained % on the vote Of CongTeSsmen we
have lost Ia on the general State ticket
V. B. Horton two years ago received ITO
majority. Democratic gain in two years
294I
The Republicans have made larger gain
on the vote Of last year than the democracy,
showing a very full vote for our opponents
and indicating what we know to be true that
a large majority those who staid at home
were democrats. Over one hundred demo.
Gratis that we know OF failed to attend the eec
tion, aud there must be at least fifty more in
the county chargeable with similar dere.
LECTION Of duty. Now, we hope that every
democrat will put forth his,utmost exertions
toget every voter 20 the polls, on the 4th Of No
vember. Let us put our seal of condemna.
tion upon this Sectional. Republican-A boil.
tion party by an increased majority Of at least
one hundred.

A Base SANDER,

We learn that the Republicans have been
circulating documents which state that Sena-
tor Cass is stumping for Fremont. The au.
dacity of such lie is only equalled by its
righteousness. Gen. Cass has been among
the warmest supporters Of James Buchanan
from the irst-even before his nomination.
He is now at the head of the democratic
legions of Michigan that are marching to a
certain victory! He is called the father OF
the popular sovereignty doctrine, which the
Republicans oppose, and it is unreasonable
to suppose FOR a moment that he has changed
his opinions on that subject.

The Ohio Election.

Ohio, which the Republicans one month
ago claimed by from fifty to one hundred
thousand majority, has no; given them over
eighteen thousand. In SO counties their
majority is about 10000. In The seventeen
counties to be heard from Chase got major.
ity last year of about eight thousand. The
Republ ican majority will not, we think 90
much over $4,000, and il may be less.

IN A GOOD uUMOR!

Our Democratic boys hereabouts feel rath-
er good, Some of them have been'imp,u.
dent enough to bet and lucky enough to win.
New hats, coats, pants, vests, &C., are be.
coming quite too common among Democrats.
Our old opponents used 10 say that we were
the "great unwashed" and dragged party"
Those epithels won't apply now. We Are
the "dressed up" party We are he hap.
py party" In the language Of the celebra.
ted Dogberry, some Of us feel like we were
" rich fellows enough" who have too
gowLs and every thing handsome about u.s."
while the Republicans are party that hath
had losses" Our poor Republican friends,
how we do pity them We romanond i -
them the following beautiful lines for conso-
lation.
"Daddy's got the whooping- cough,
Billy's got the measels,
That tie acGy the money goes
Pop goes the weasel"

In the great ba tile just fought in Ohio,
Pennsylvania and Indiana, the Congress of
the nation has been REV0LUTl0NlZED,
and the NATIONAL DEMOCRACY tri-
umphant.
WE HAVE GAINED EIGHT IN OHIO 4;
GRoEsBEcK, PENDLEroN, CocKERELL, Cox,
MILLER, HALL, BURNS and LAWRENCE.
Democrats of Ohio, this will do for the
first trial. Press on the good work and
you will next take their very citadel.
You have done all that ought to have been
expected Of you, but you intended to do
more than your duty, aud most nobly, glori-
ously did you fight for it, and you have
shown what you can do when you set about
il.
Our opponents are dispirited, discoura ged
and dispondent--they see the hand writing
on the wall-they appreciate their terrible
blunder in attempting to elect President
by shriekS instead OF arguments, and the
leaders have fed TO New York, to hold con-
sulation on what they are to do inthe future.
While they are in Council let US be at work.
We never look back Ohio Statesman.

TIE 4TH OF NOVEMBER !

All our letters assure us that they will do
better on the fourth Of November, and th at
the Democrats are ready and determined
for the final contest
We feel perfectly confident that in this
county (Franklin) we shall do more than
our share in giving the vote Of Ohio, TO BucS-
anan and Breckinridge. Cheered BY our
gains on Cougressmen, cheered by the news
from Pennsylvania and Indiana. we shall con-
tinue our exertions until the last vote is pol
led.
Confident now of the election OF our
candidates on the 4Ih Of November, we shall
not labor as men expecting deleaI, or IN
doubts Of the great result.
We have, in the struggle just passed.
added our full share in the revolution OF the
Lower House Of Congress, most important
result, second onl, to the election oil Presi-
dent aud Vice President.
Let US then "pck our Aints" and try II
again. Statesman.

DEMOCRATS, WORK-A WORD
OF ADVICE.

We trust no Democrat will lessen his eX-
ertions in the good cause, upon the supposi-
tion that the receLt elections have
made it certain that it is bound to triumph
in November, Such an overwecning securi-
~ might be fatal The columns Of the enc
my are broken in confusion and are retiring,
but they may rally ifnot vigorously pursued.
The fire must be kept up until the 4th OF
November, when one grand charge will for
ever annihilate them. Let the bright pros
poets of victory stimulate us TO increased e1-
erlions instead of lessening it. We have
vigilant and active enemy to combat, and we
cannot slssP upon our suno' Let every De-
mocrat organize himself into a COMMITTEES
Of vigilance, and meetings be held all over
the State, and Ohio can be carried for Buck
next month.

ONLY12DAYs TO WORK.

Remember, that the Presidential Eectio
the great political battle of the Nation
takes place on the TUESDAY, THE
FOURTH OF NOVEMBER and that there
are only twelve days between this and that
time. Let iherebe genera! stirring up of
She Democracy from now until the day Of
the election, and then do not leave the polls
until the lasl vote is in. Ifevery Democrat
will do his duty, Ohio will give her twenty
three votes to James Buchanan

THE SURGING OF THE POPU-
LAR TIDE FOR BUCHANAN
--HOW THE VOTE STANDS.

No better estimate can he formed OF tho
tremendous Democatic triumphs in the States
which voted on the l4th Of October than
to compare the returns with the last general
elections in those states in 1854. The fig
ures stand thus
Indiana then 10000 against the Democrats
now 5000 in their favor. Democratic gum
on the popular vOte %, 600,
Pennsylvania then $4,000 against the De-
mocrats now 6,O00 ia ther favor. Democratic
gain 4S,000
Ohio then $4,000 against the DemocJats
now, say 10000. Democratic gam 6O,-
600.
Thus--in the three States--the Democrats
have gained on the popular vote in two years,
$4,000 Votes The Ike Of this tremendous
popular revolution was never before seen in
this country.

A SIGHT FOR PATRIOTS.
THE PATRIOTIC SONS OF CLAY AND
WEBSTER.

The Democratic meeting at Lancaster on the
9Th inst, was the monster meeting OF the S.ots
in this campaign. 1t is fairly estimated that
there were $4,000 Democratic voters in at.
tendance. But the most animating specta-
Bile of all was to behold the Sage Of Wheat
land. The ilustrious Buchanan came forth
in obedience to the numerous calls Of the
multitude, resting his one arm on the shoul-
der of the son Of Clay, and the other on the
shoulder of the son of Webster. Il was an
ennobling sight for patriots, and one to in.
spire all good men with confidence in the in-
tegrity oil our Union and the future greatness
of our country. WAC will despair when
he sees the great spirits Of the country, tho
chieltains and the representatives of the old
national Whig and Democratic parties cast.
ing aside every feeling Of animosity, and
ranging themselves side by side together in
defence of the Constitution and the equal
rights Of every portion of the Conlederacy
against the assaults of fanatical faction in
the Northern States? We cannot disuust
that the result to-day will be glorious VIC
tory for the Democratic party, when we see
such patriotic demonstrations 10 its favor.

ATTENTION, DEMOCRATS |!

The Democrats in the various Townships
will confer favor by sending in the returns
just as soon as the vote is ascertained--be
it late or early. We are under special OBJ
legations to our friends for their promptness
in this respect on the night Of the l4th inst.
Perhaps it is asking too much Of the Demo-
Gratis of Eagle and Wilkesville, but we should
be glad if the returns from those townships
were brought in on the night ofthe 4th.-
Let oil the Townships be in by midnight.
