The metal in them, from the iron casting to the
smallest piece, is of poor quality. Their makers

hid away in secret places where II would be impos

The bes, designed machines, BADLY MADE, are
always liable to get out of order, and are sure to

c3- The sclfstyled Democratic organs
arc growing loudly over their "gains" in
Ohio and Indiana. But a party never
boasted over victories so 1ishonorably and
alphabetically achieved. While the true
Union men have gone to the field Of battle
to figh: for the Union and the Constitu-
:ion, the Tories have stayed at home to
cpec flre-in-the-rear On the defenders Of
the national flag. The one party sends
half its members to the army to put down
tie rebellion, while the leaders Of the
other keep theirs al home to pote and seize
upon the offices for the purpose Of embar-
RAISING the government and playing into
the hands or the enemy. And partisan
triumphs obtained under such infamous
circumstances raa hailed as "great Demo-
cratic victories" Democrats who lore
their country more than party will take no
stock in such victories.

BINGHAM, OF OHIO.

the result Of the October elections, the n.

Of 6 1ndea mr z tine nouss
the leading advocate in the senate. This respect
able and a;le member. the object Of 80 much rad
ca panegyric. has been left ont IN the eold' By
his Intelligent constituents"
This is as honest statement Of the case
as could be expected from the organ Of
Fernando Wood.
In the first place, Mr. Bingham was
thrown into a new district The strong
Republican counties Of Carroll, Jefferson
and Columbiana- vb;oh fol- uer1Y beluased
" Ills district, were replaced by Belmont,
Guernsey, Tuscarawas and Noble. The
former If these gave an opposition major.
i.y Of 1900 against the Republicans at the
last Presidential election, and the whole
district including Mr. Bingham's home
county Of Harrison, barely gave Lincoln
$50 majority against the opposition.
Secondly, the Republicans sent 6 900 vol
| unteers to the army while the opponents
scarcely sent 1000. 11r. Bingham twice
stumped the district to raise soldiers to
fight for the Union, in laboring to save
which he sacrificed himself While he elo.
qucntly plead with his party friends to fill
up tue regiments, his opponent worked to
keep his partisan friends out of the army.
Each was successful in his special endea.
vor. And now the patriot is stabbed in
the back by the tories. But what loyal
man, under those circumstances, would not
rather be John 4. Bingham, the patriotic
orator, defeated, than J. ". White, the Sc.
cession sympathizer, elected? Before the
next Congressional canvass the soldiers
Will have returned from the wars, and they
will hasten to reverse the snap judgment
