.BrIbed and Driven"

1t would be well 10 keep in mind the estima-
ton in which the Journal holds large class
of the voters of Dayton. 1t has boldly and
brazenly asserted that they were "BRIBED
AND DRIVEN" This is n serious charge
against the manhood, stability and freedom of
men who can lay as much claim to integrity
and frmness of character as the men who
control that sheet We wonder if the candi-
dates on the Republican ticket, uphold their
organ in this? Whether or not they believe
that those men TO whom the Journal alluded
were or could be either "bribed or driven2
Does the Journal expect to "drive" men into
the support of the Republican ticket, by such
course2 If it does, 1t has mistaken the com
position of the men it has to deal with

The Purpose of the Wide
| AWakeR.
Wide

1t is frequently asserted that the Black Re
publican organizations known as the Wide
Awakes, are designated simply for torch-light
professions and such other harmless purposes,
and have nothing whatever to do with elec
tons. And yet Senator WADE, of Ohio, in his
address to the Detroit Wide Awakes the other
day, said:
II have confidence in the Wide Awakes, and
believe that they will guard the polls and up
hold the government"
So there you arel The Wide-Awakes are
to surround and guard the polls. are they

The Reason.

1t is 4pR understood that the rea-
son efi the failure Of the great po-
ffeal camp meeting which the Repub-
licans were to hold IN Indiana, near the Ohio
line, was because they put "old Abes' name
on the bills, as one of the speakers for the
occasion. 1t was terrible drasV-6ack The
raiLspEtter will be found on no more bills for

Republican Arguments.

The following extract, taken from, a conn
munication in the last Indianapolis Journal
gives as reason why men shnnld vote the
Republican ticket, because
/. Seven ministers Of the Gospel vote the
Republican ticket, to one that votes the Dem
oeratic ticket possibly even more.
|. Three. church members vote the Republi-
can ticket 10 one that votes the Democratic.
B Two drunkards vote the Democratic tick
ct to one that votes Republican.
This is but the old claim revived, that the
Republican party possesses all the decency
and talent, and religion to be found in the
country. The Cleveland Anylist, temper
dRce paper, has been laboring for weeks to
prove that the Democratic party the whisky
drinking party" the "liquor selling party the
'drunkards party" &c, and now, lead
Ing Republican paper charges indirectly, that
f&e ne k@p. party is the only religiol.l
party. &t;ts.
Such a charge Is - tiIly end Insignificant a,
TO be scarcely worth reply especially in this
State, where the Republicans have aa a cend
slsia for elector an open and ayowed infdel--
a ieadeF d The so-ealled "free-thinkers-FR FRED
EmoK HApsAHbE. The employment of such
arguments,--ahe attempt to drag religion and
temperance into tiie. Os1sieel arena--but fur
nishes additional evidence of thhs weakness Of

We cannot withhold our humble need Of praise
OF the really beautiful and magnanimous speech

Mr. Tyler. for disappointing so cruelty tho hopes

bis manly address has contributed greatly to dis
arm our resentment In going back TO that mem
