Mr. Blickensderfer It will be remembered was a ,nenl-
Der ofthe Board when the Canal were let which
one OF the republican investigating committees last win
ter reported were fraudulent His renomnation there
fore amounts to declaration that the report of the

Democrat.
That is Flaugherisn, and the people can't
be made to believe such yarn. The edi-
tor of the Democrat is convinced that those
contracts aOere illegal and .trau1ulent, and
what is tho use of his stultifying himself aud
deceiving his readers. Will he publish the
following question and answer, to be found

teeG Mr.. BAoKUs, the locofoco nominee for
member Of the Board of Public Works,
acknowledges that he himself took brbs
ofSl,000 to withdraw his bid, so that the
State would be swindled out of several thou
sand dollars. The committee asked him
Did you receive any money other valuable thing for
Withdrawing your bid on section No. 6?"
His answer is in the following words

And yet tho DEMOCRAT declares that Mr.
Backus is an honest and pure man. 1t may
be that he is, like the editor of the Demo
crot honest when it does not interfere with
his pocket--politicall we mean.

The Tribune says, they have officially
counted in Stewart, the candidate Of the
Pro-Slayery Border -Ruffian Democracy, as
Governor Of Missouri--how honestly, we
cannot yet say. The Total vote is officially
stated as follows
Rollins --.-.- 47,o41 Stewart t....-....-...47 o75
Stewards majority -.------------------..---.39i
Two weeks before tho election, we would
have gladly heard that Stewart would re-
receive but 5000 majority. Now Rollins
has been beaten, but substantial victory
has been won for Emancipation. The ques-
ton has been opened for discussion, and
that discussion will go on to its proper ter
minatiou. We estimate the vote cast for
Rollins on Emancipation grounds at 10000.
We hopo to see larger one for the cause
next year, and so gain till tho close of the
struggle. We are satisfied with the result
of this first effort.
The st. Louis Democrat Of the 91st, in
publishing what is put forth as the official
returns of the election in that State, claim
ing the choice of Stewart, says.
"ro-day we give publication to what arc
put forth from the City of Jefferson as the
official return of the late gubernatorial
election. If we had any doubts before of
the gross and .elaripg frauds which have
been practiced in regard to the making up
of the returns, ever since eighty counties
were heard from, we have more now. The
cheat is patent on the face of them, and we
have entire confidence that it will be made
so clear before the meeting of the General
Assembly by scrutiny through the vigil
ant of the poll books in each county, as to
invalidate the assumption that Stewart has
been elected. Correctly and truthfully he
has been defeated by near seven hundred
votes; officially he is returned with 334
majority. We shall, however, take another
occasion to show the specific instances of
foul play from DeKalb county down to Rip
ley and Reynolds counties: it will remain
for tho public to right such high handed
wrong, and affix the stigma where it justly
belongs"

READ THE TESTIMONY.

An interesting item in regard to the char
acter of II. B. Payne, black locofoco nomi-
nee for Governor, is to be found IN the Ohio
State Journal, and reads as follows.
"In the examination of tho celebrated
Lloyd case by tho Ohio Legislature, in 1910,
in which Henry B. Payne was concerned, a
number Of the most respectable witnesses
from Cleveland who were examined, swore
that Henry B. Payre was not a man OF
truth and veraeity, and some of them swore
that they would not "6elieVe him under oath
achen his own interests were at stake.
Mr.. Hosmer, of Toledo, who now supports
Payne, also gave this testimony of this same
H. B. Payne:
+" He succeeded in doing so one time too
many, when Champion cowhidcd him-and
also when impeached in his veracity. He
has succeeded again in purchasing for him.
self an Infamous notoriety by his low and
contemplate attacks upon the speaker
But, enough: with those a0ho kRow him, Il
is sufficient TO say that the Word Of Mr..
Blake is opposed to that Of Ar. Payne"
How do tho black democracy in this sec
ton like the idea of supporting such can
didate. Read again tho record above.

BEAR IT IN MrND.-That Henry. B.
Payne, the Locofoco candidate for Governor,
while member of the Ohio Senate, voted
in favor of dissolution Of the Union! A
resolution was before that body instructing
our members of Congress to go for repeal
of the Fugitive Slave Law Mr.. Geiger
moved an amendment to that resolution as
follows:
provided, That Congress shall believe
that such repeal will not tend TO a dissolu-
ton Of tho Union"
Mr.. Payne voted against that amendment
and in favor of tho repeal of that Law,
EVEN If IT AFFECTED A DISSOLU-
