"TiMle to Work."

| This was tie reply of the votaries Of San

Well, fellow Democrats of Portage it is
now time for US to be up and doing. Less
than two weeks remain between this anC
the election; and are you ready for the con
fict? Are you thoroughly organized il

tions to have every Democratic voter at the
polls on election day! If not, it is "time
to work." Don't say "there is no use try
ing" Nothing, surely, can by gained by
inaction but, by thorough organization
and determined offort, much may be accom-.
plished; and even though victory may moi
perch upon our standard, we will feel that
we have faithfully discharged our duty.
We have cause that is worthy of our ear.
nest support. We have candidates possess
ing the genuine Jei1ersonian qualifications
who are "honest, capable and faithful to the
Constitution"--who are deserving of our
votes, and, if we but do our whole duty, on
the second Tuesday of October, though we
may be SO unfortunate as to find ourselves
defeated, we shall have the proud satisfac.
ton of having acquitted ourselves like good
Democrats, deserving of better fate.

It Must be Decided !

The second Tuesday of October is fast
approaching, at which time the people of
Ohio must decide, by their votes for Su-
preme Judge, whether the banks are to be
taxed as farmers, mechanics, merchants and
others, or whether they will be suffered to
enjoy all the blessings of government with
out sharing its burdens.
This question must be met--there is no
way of avoiding it. Most persons are aware
that the Supreme Court of Ohio holds the
law taxing bankers constitutional, by vote
of three in favor to two against. Thomas
w. BARLEY is in favor of bank taxation, and
he with two others constitute the majority.
II w. V. Peck should be elected he would
declare for the bankers by deciding the law
unconstitutional, and thus force the labor.
ing part OF the community to bear all the
burdens Of government, while the silk stock.
ing bankers are enjoying all its blessings.
No question Of so great importance has
for years been presented to the voters of
Ohio as the issue between Judge BARLEY aud
William V. Peck. Talk this over to your
neighbor, get every one to understand it, and
honest men will, on the second Tuesday o.
October, condemn this base attempt to make
the rich richer and the poor poorer.

What is the great principle which divides
the political parties in this country! Fol
which, or about what, are we contending
Upon what what question are the parties at
issuel Do the Republicans oppose any
one of the measures of National or State
policy, advocated or established by the De.
mocratic party? If 80, they have failed to
put themselves upon the record, and openly
to avow their opposition. The only ques.
ton upon which they have professed to dif-
fer with the Democracy, is upon the power
of Congress over the local governments
the right of the Federal authorities to make
laws for the Territories. This is the rock
upon which we split. The Republicans
claim that Congress has SOVEREIGN
POWER over the Territories of the United
States, for their government, while the
Democratic party claims that the sovereign.
ty of the Territory is in the people, and that
it is their right to make their own laws, ere.
ate their own institutions and manage their
own affairs. The Republicans claim for
Congress the same rights and powers which
the British Parliament and British Monarch
claimed to exercise over her infant colonies,
and which brought about the Revolution and
the separation of these colonies from the
mother country--that their laws shall be
made, and their affairs regulated by men
whom they have had no voice in choosing,
and who are in no wise responsible to them
for the manner in which they may discharge
their duties. The Democratic position il
that upon which rests the whole Republican
institutions, while that Of the Republicans
does violence to every principle and idea o
true and genuine republicanism.
We do not mean to be understood as say
ing that this is the only question upon whicl
the two parties do not agree, but it is the
main, if not the only one upon which thu
Republicans have presumed to show thei
hands. And if it were the only question up
on which the parties were divided, could no
nest, intelligent, republican men, long hest
tate where to take their stand Think o
these things. Ponder them well, and thel

OtF"The Bank Tax question" has no.
thing to do with the issue of the present
cnmpaiyn.-ReRector.
If that question has "nothng to do with
the issue," then in Gods name tell us what
one has. We think the people of Ohio
have not yet fully concluded to overlook
their state affairs entirely and try to make
Kansas "bleed" again, in order to place a
few black republicans in office. The bank
tax question" is one of great importance.
1t is well known that Judge BARLEY is of
opinion that legalized plunderers, styled
"bankers, ',ought to pay taxes on their cupi-
tai, the same as farmers, mechanics, and
other useful men in community are COM
PEELED to, and not on their profits. If the
farmers crop happens to fail, he is not re.
leased from paying taxes because he has
made no profits. Why should not bankers
be placed on the same footing Bank cap
ital ought to stand on the assessment roll
and be taxed the same as other property,
even though the managers of such institu.
tions may occasionally fail in making pro-
fits. If bankers can be compelled to pay
their full share of taxes, and thus tighten
the heavy load now placed upon the honest
tllers of the soil, it strikes US as being a
"question" that ought to be at issue in the
"present campaign" since it is well known
that Judge BARLEY is one of the people,
while his opponent, Judge Peck, is the cor.
poration candidate, and would not be likely
to do anything calculated TO interfere in any
way with the special privileges of the bank
rag ariotocracy .-NorwaM Experiment.

Hon. Il. w. BARLEY.

In late number of the Ohio Statesman
we find the following truthful and we'll spo-
ken answer to the question, "Who is Thorn.
as w. BARLEY Z" .. -.
"He has been known to the whole State
for many years. For six years he took a
prominent and leading part in the legisla-
ton Of the State he was among the few
who presided as Speaker of the Senate of
this State, at time of high party excite.
ment, without an appeal from any decision
of the Chair in single instance and with
entire satisfaction to the public, he discharg.
ed the functions of Chief Magistrate of the
State, during the remainder of Gov. Shan
mons term, after the latter's appointment as
Minister to Mexico. He was for years dis
tnguished by his efforts at the bar and &C.
quired reputation as U. s. District Attor
Dey, in the Circuit and District Courts oil
the United States. He has been repeated

the people, twice to the bench Of the Su-
preme Court, and never at any time, when q
candidate before the people, has he failed to
carry his own region of the State by vote
beyonKthe strength of bis own party. And
for eyspnce of the legal attanments and
qualifc6s Ans Of Judge BARLEY for the Bench
of The EIRFemesC Court, we need only direct
attention ID his legal opinions in the six
published yolumns of Ohio State Reports,
to his legal opinions published in the lead
ing law periodicals Of the country, and the
general expression of the members OF the
bar, and oil political parties, in every part
Of tho State where be held court.

Yaple has just left the Republicans to act
with the Democracy, and large number o
the young men of Ross county have done
likewise. The base manner in which the
Republicans have belied their professions
and abandoned their principles, and the i'm
possibility of telling where they are or wha
they are after, have been sufficient to make
many young men of ability and energy re.

The Gold Discoveries i'm Kansas

The Kansas City Journal publishes what
It calls "the facts" about the discovery of
gold in Kansas. These "facts," the Jour.
nal says, were obtained from Mr.. Can.
trell-a California miner-who has been
prospecting about the headquarters Of the
Platte since last spring. Mr.. Cantrell re.
ports finding gold company on Cherry
creek, who had obtained $ 900 in less than
fortnight. He claims to have discovered
gold in every creek, and asserts that with a
pick and pan he could make from $lS to
$40 per day.
We give some more Of the Journals
"facts" without vouching for their rellabi.

In many respects the country is far supe.
rior to California for mining. lie believes
that third or half less digging will be re.
quired, and that water is far more easily OBJ
tanned and is more abundant. There is an
abundance of timber, grass, and game of all
kinds and for farming he thinks the coun-
try unsurpassed by any Of the States.
Mr.. Cantrell brought about three bushels
of dirt in his wagon, which was tested in
Westport yesterday morning, by Edward
Peyton and other experienced miners, anC
which yielded about fifteen cents to each
two quarts of dirt, and Mr.. C. informs ui
that he prospected bars that would yielG
from 90 to IS cents to the pan.
These results he gives only as what he
saw and can testify to, OF his own know
ledge. He cannot give any information as
to the prospects for quartz mining or dry
diggings, as he had no tools to test the mat
ter, and no provisions for stay in the coun
try. He only went there to test the fact o
the existence of gold, and remained as lons
as it was possible for him to do so.
To reach the mines he crossed the coun
try from Fort Laramie. He represents th'
route by the South Platte as dry and sandy
very hard on stock, and almost impassabl,
when the streams are full. He intends t,

Democracy of tile State.

Never before have we seen such enthusi-
ASH as now pervades our party throughout
the State. All is animation. The papers
are teeming with notes of encouragement
from every quartar. New recruits by thou

from present appearances the victory this

in few weeks we can shout that Ohio is
Democratic once more.
The sentinels from every outpost have
sent in tke cheering intelligence that ALL
