The undersigned, a committee of tie

pointed at the fifth Annual Meeting held

This new arrangement for the exhibi-

WOODS REsToRATIvE-Ofall the re-
storatives for the hair that have beer in
vented, Woods prominently claims the
first place. 1t will certainly restore the
natura al color of the hair, if the directions
are followed a sufficient length of time.
1t also has produced astonishing effects
in bringing out a growth of hair, whore
the head had been previously bald
Wood does not pretend that it will do
this in all cases /; and We think his can
dor is a good recommendation of the vir.
tues which his restorative really possess
es. If the roots of the hair are de-
stroyed, 10 human power can make them
grow again but when there is any vi
talit left in the root, the restorative will
soon renew the hair in all its pristine
vigor. 1t has lone this repeatedly when
all other remedies had failed. 1t is
therefore worth while in all cases to
make the experiment. For cleaning the
head of dandruff, and ~thickening and
strengthening the hair it has no rival

THE BACKBONE RECOVERING
HTS FORMER STRENGTH.

The old backbone" of the Ohio
Democracy is regaining its former
strength. It will soon become again,
as it was years ago, an effectual bulwark
against the tide of error and fanaticism
which have their birth upon the Western
Reservc-and which, when the back
bone has yielded, has swept over the
State.
Now that "our brcws are bound with
victorious wreaths," we propose to Bro

THE POPULAR VERDICT AGAINST
THEIEI MEASURES.a

Whatever may be the fate of their
candidates LihsEe- cen be little doubt OF
the fact hat the People of Ohio have
proclaimed against the faEorite measures
of The Republican party by a very de-
eided majority. The proposed mutila
ton of the Constitution under the guise
of Equal Taxation" and the over
shadowing Rag Money Dynasty which
sas sought to be fastened upon the
necks of the People, have net the con-
domination they merited. The wisdom
of that provision of u present consti-
sutton, which requires that schemes Of
Bank plumber shall first pass tho ordeal
of the people, is again demonstrated
There has been no time since 1887, that
any paper money scheme would have
received the sanction of the people, had
it been submitted to them for approval.

THE WORKING MEN OF THE DE.
MOCRACY.

The Wayne Co. Democrat pays a
we'll meritcd compliment to Colonel B.
EAsoN, for his efficient and disinterested
labors in the late campaign. Col. GEO.
REX also did gallant service in that
county, as We happen to know.
In our own county, justice requires
that We refer to the labors of Messrs.
WHITE, JACOBS, CRANE, HOFFMAN, SAMP-
Sell, JONES, MCCARTY and BOYD, during
the late campaign, as having contributed
largely to the result in this county, over
which we all rejoice.
Justice also requires us to say that in
Ashland and in other counties of the
State, there were very few public speak
ers whose efforts told with more effect
than those of T. J. KENNY, Esq. His
professional engagements would not per-
NIT him to respond to all the demands
of tie Democratic State Central Com.
mittee,-but wherever he did obtain a
chance at latter-day Republicanism, his
efforts told with marked effect, as the
figures show.

In the Third Ward there ras some

top of an omnibus. fired q pistol in the
direction of the crowd standing about

and then jumped off and down Gy St.
He was followed by a number of prisons
who gained on him so rapidly flat he
took refuge in the store of Mr.. Jehu
Gorsuch, at the corner of Front street.,
and escaped by going on the top # the
building and descending through moth-
er house. The pursuing parties tLaa
returned to the polls, when a fight took,
place, and one of the contending crowds
reiterated down High, towards French
street. There were a number of polio,
officers at hand, and they used every et-
fort to quell the riot. When they reach
ed the corner of High street a vollor
was fred up French street from tie cor.
ner of Burren, and it is said from tn,
windows of Jackson Hall. One of the
balls struck Sergeant Jourdan, who said
81 I'M shot," fell and expired in a few
minutss. At that time there way tie
greatest possible excitement. The body
was then taken in charge by Lieut.. g..
micheal, and started for his late resi-.
denee.
Mr.. Jourdan was a faithful, efficient
officer, and his bearing was always gen
tlemanly and courteous. He had many
and strong friends, and his death will be
a loss to the department not easily to be
supplied.

THE srarE rICKEr.

The result as regards Governor and
other State officers, is yet in such doubt
and uncertainty that neither side is in
ellned to despair, and neither side dare
exult much. Our Republican neigh
bsfs, on Saturday night, received a dis.
patch from Mr.. BAscoM, of Columbus,
announcing the election of Mr.. CHASE
by about 800 majority ;-whereupon,
hey gathered courage, and brought out
the cannon. The Democrats have had
just as good news since, assuring them
of the election of Mr.. PAYNE, but they
suppress all demonstrations until they
can see more clearly that they are out of
the woods. Last year there were polled,
for Presidential electors, $50, SOY votes.
es The vote will probably reach $4,000
sathis year. That the contest should be
80 close, in a State casting SO large a
= vote, is remarkable.

. for Board Of Public Works, is conceded.

the hearty concurrence of all parties.
iga We may not know the fate of the
ri candidates for other State officers until
the meeting of the General Assembly,
: by whom the official vote will be can
% vassed. It will be remembered that the
contest between john B. WELLER and
SEABuay FoRD, in I64S, remained in

ed, when the question was iually deter

shows that, aritA a little more ene1tiOn,
ahsy might have thoroughly purified
this debauched aud corrupted Common

work of organization, would have made

MON Law Ar maNsF,ELD.

One day last week some persons, said
to be Brokers, from Cleveland and Woos.
Der, appeared before the teller of the
Farmers Branch of the State Bank OF
Ohio at Mansfield, and demanded the
payment of a certain amount of the
notes of that Branch. While the Bank
rficer was engaged in counting out the
coin, q mob of Bank minions rushed in
TO the room, and, by threats of personal
violence, drove the note-holders from
The premises, as empty-handed as they
came- This mob, We learn, have since
constituted themselves, or have been
constituted by the Bank, a Vigilance
Committee" and have determined to
protect the Bank against the just and
lawful claims of its note holders
This Bank was created with extraordi-
mary privileges-priyileges which no
other body of people 10 Richland coun-
ty enjoy-under the promise of furnish
ing a home currency as good as coin,
aud much more Convenient, and akaOays
payable in gold and silver, at its
counter, on demand. And now that
it's paper is deprecated, in conse-
quence of the well-founded and general
distrust of a ~plundered people in all pa
per money and because note holders
apply for n redemption of their fraudu-
TENT promises, the cry of broker is
raised as an excuse for defraudiDg note
holders of their just demands. It was
not that the claimants were /" brokers'
rs much as the amount of the notes
which the Bank dreaded, and which
caused it to marshal its mercenary forces
60 aid ii in evading the payment of its
debts.
How long is the country to be under
the dominion of these law defying rob
-bers? Is it not enough that these
Banking institutions have brought this
desolation upon the land, without re-
sorting to mob violence in order to pro
tect tEeir insolvency from exposure.
Similar scenes to this at Mansfield
have also occurred at Springfield, Piqua
and other towns

Mr. Wilmot, the candidate for Gov

scene Of his late troubles with little of
dignity. We adm nished him of his
fate in advance, in the very spir-
it. VIZ foretOld his fate. We implored
him to desist from his labors. But he
refused Dur counsel, and 10 he is almost
as badly worsted as if he had started
out to run for the fewest votes. There
is a moral in this catastrophe. Mr..
Wilmot was the author (~putatlve or real)
of tie Proviso that bears Lis name

ever since 1916, passing through various
phases of politics from that time, and
changing his coat and his name almost
as often as the rider III the circus who
starts out, like Mr.. W., a very fat mar,
and ends a very lean one indeed.
The only element to which he has been
true in all this experience has been abb
%olitiouism. But this was proved to be
the saddest of all his speculations-it
has weighed him down from the first,
until it has sunk him, politically, deep.
eF than plunmet ever sounded. The
place where he descended will be avoid
ed by all aspiring politicians hereafter,
as the fatal current is Stunned by the
