We also attended the meeting at
indianapolis, It was one Of the
largest political gatherings ever
Witnessed on this continent. 1t
was the monster meeting of the
campaign, eclipsing every similar
demonstration that has ever taken
place. It beat the Harrison meet
ings of 1910. 1t surprised those
who had charge of the arrange
ment. In point of number and en-
thusiasm it exeelled any similar af-
fair that ever occurred.
The speaking was at the old Fair
grounds, which were densely crowd
ed-such o scene-is not many
times seen in q lifetime. Judge
Douglas was introduced to the vast
audience by Gov. Hammond. MI
Douglas spoke an hour and a quar-
ter, defining in his own mastery
and matchless manner his position
upon the great living principles Of
the day. Hon. Herschel v. John.
SON, our candidate for Vice Presi-
dent, was present and made one Of
the ablest speeches it has ever been
our good fortune to listen too. Mr.,
johnson is undoubtedly one of the
very ablest men in the South. His
speech was well received, and shout
after shout of applause went up fol
that noble patriot. t o u-ftr.
After Mr.. johnson had closed
his speech, the crowd assembled in
front of the Bates House, when
they were addressed by John A
Logan of Illinois, who by the way
is one of the ablest speakers in that
State. Dixon and Mason, of Ken.
lucky, Tod, of Ohio, and q number
of others. a.
In the evening there was agranG
torch light procession, which wal
one of the largest we ever saw, to
gether with the fire works made il
one of the most imposing scenes
we ever witnessed. 81. RI
The crowd was variously est
mated at from se~venty-fve to on
hundred and fifty thousand. Gu
guess is that fully one hundreo
thousand persons were present
most of whom were voters. !
was without doubt, one Of tn
largest meetings that ever Assem-
bled on the American Continent
if not the very largest.

Another Abolitionist.

One ofthe Editors of the Ohio
State Journal, on Thursday even
ing last, at the Philips House in
Dayton, in conversation witha very
reliable democrat of our town, said
that he was an Aboliionist and glo-
ried in the name. That written Con-
s%titations had no binding force and
effect, that the real Constitution that
governed us was in the minds and
consciences Of the people. That the
Constitution of England was I'M
written, andthat it was the BEST
and PUREST government in the
world. Onbeing told by our demo-
cratic friend that ifthose were his
political views he had better leave
this country and go to England at q
short day, he replied that this was
his native country and that he still
intended to live here. He further
stated hat the republican party
lost ground by their timidity in
failing to avow themselves Adolf
tionists. What does our neighbor
of the Register think of this enun-
citation of principle, here is q full
blooded British Abolitionist. An.
ii American and British to the
core, and will most certainly pleas
our neighbor in every respect
There is no question, butthat these
views are republicanism as now un.
derstood and taught by the intelli.
gent party leaders. And if oul
neighbor Of the Register is not toe
weak in the knees, he will, before
twelve months be dealing out tc
his readers these same British pills
A government, by the people al
ways was distasteful to a portion o.
our people, and we apprehend thai
it always will remain SO. Wondel
if this fellow could not for q very
small salary be induced to become
a footman in the retinue of tn
Prince of Wales. We hope h
may and thus get out of our coun
try at the earliest possible day.

importance of this matter now, as
at anyother time. We know that
it has been quite common in this
County, when man became too Lex
Nv and indolent to make a living
and succeed in life, by . close att
ltentiont to his business and private
affairs, to elect him to one of the
county offices, just as if the public
business of our county required
less energy, less industry and less
skill to conduct it safely and prop
erly, that did to conduct success
fully business of the
citizen. What an egregious errorl
will the people never see -Again.
The manwh is too lazy and indo-
lent to succeed in life by strict at
tention to hisiregular calling is al
ways seeking office, always clamor-
ing for position, always spending
his time doing a little deputy bus
mess about the Court House, that
the industrious business man would
be ashamed of STOPPING too. While
on the other hand, the practical
man, the real muscle of society, Of
success and safety, never seeks of.
flee. If he ever gets an Office it is
because the Office has sought him
and found as o matter of course 9
worthy agent. Voters ofPreble cour
tyrefect well on this subject before
you vote. We say to you that We
will vote for no man to fill one o.
our county Offices who has through
laziness, slothfulness and inactivi'
ty failed to attend to and properly
manage his own concerns, he will
make a bad public agent, and the
sooner we cut loose from such
drones, the better. Is this moi
true, we appeal to youis itnot true
We give you a ticket Of industri'
GUS energetic and competent men
who are not and never have beer
Office seekers but who by strict at
tention to their own business, have
succeeded we'll in life. They have
thus given an earnest ofthe man
ner in which they will attend t.
the public business. Will you vot'
for them?.

Voters Of Prehle county! this is
the last opportunity we shall have
of addressing you before the Octo-
Der election. We apprehend that
'it is scarcely necessary to say to
you, that atthis election forthe first
time in the county Of Preble, is
sought to be determined by the
ballot box and forced upon the
country; principles, which if car
ried out must completely overturn
the very foundation of both our
political and social systems. Black
Republican fanatics through the
election Of Jacob Brinkerhof to
the supreKA Bench expect to es-
tabIish the following points. .
First, To force the negro, though
black as the ace of spades, to the
ballot box.
Second, To force him into the
jury box. ,''l
Third, To force the children of
the negroes Of all grades and class
es, into the schools prepared for
white children. 't'r o' ''
Fourth, To do away with all the
legal and social impediments that
now prevent the negro in this State
from holding Office.
Fifth, To do away with all
caste-legislation in our State, and
place the negro politically and civ
lily on the same basis Of equality
with the white man, which last
point by consequence establishes
the, d"
Sixth, The total destruction OF
our present social system, whereby
the negro may without social re-
striction freely, ~rightfuIly and prop
erly, intermingle, marry and ANAL
gamate with the white race.
Are not the questions then pre-
sented for determination of sufi-
cient Importance to call every mar
to the ballot box promptly. Ifyou
wish to avert this frightening curse
from our State, you must vote fol
Thomas j. s. Smith. See to it,
then friends, that his name is on
your ticket. If you wish to main.
tain the honor and fealty Of our
glorious old 3D. district, vote by all
means for our gallant and talented
candidate, G. L. Vallandigham.-
If you want a man Of ability, judg.
ment and Statesmanship to repre-.
sent you in Congress, vote for Val
landigham. If you want a man tc
represent you in the Congress o.
the nation, of whom you may just
ly be proud, vote by all means fol

HENRY SHIELDS.

We have examined this ticket
carefully, and must say, that it
meets our entire appreciation, and
We most ~checrfully and cordially
recommend it to the thinking, the
unbiased and the well disposed
men of every political party in the
county. To that class Of the vo-
tiers of our county who are DESTROYS
of seeing our county Offices filled
by thinking, judicious, competent
and conservative men, instead of
old Office seeking political trick
sters who view the citizens of COM
munity as subjects of prey and
plumber only, we say, vote the tick
ct. Vote for men who are identif-
ed with you in interest, social feel
ing, and everything that conspires
to make you feel that you have
men upon whom you can implicitly
and safely rely.
Solomon Banta, the candidate
for Probate Judge, is a gentleman
well known to every voter in the
county. Of his integrity, business
capacity, legal qualifications, anC

sail him upon these points. TIL,
