Thc .Tournol Cries "VOli"-S Some of
thp Issues.


The journal has labored, for several days,
70 make out that the issue in this campaign
is, whether "VALLANDIGHAn shall be IN
dorscd M home or not" Considering the
success our party has met with every time
this issue ,oas fairly and distinctly made, we
regard this as "omiRous Of good" We oe-
lieve that when Mr.. GILLESPIE ran for
Mayor, this issue was put in the platform
us the sole plank. In the fall OF 1874 II
was lust as loudly shouted; and during
MIR. KRNxEY's race for Mayor lastspring
Il was vOciferously proclaimed. But win
what result in every case, In this county
Let the record speak. We beat them.
But the Journal can not escape the true
issues. ScHENcK smells more rankly In the
nostrils Of the people than the animal OF
which his name is a corruption. His vote
on the tariff, his advocacy of negro suf-
frage; his violence, vindictiveness aud
malice his past record are all before the
people, as he will be a candidate.
The question of Reconstruction the Freed
mems Bureau bill; the Civil Rights bill
and all the denominations of the Rump Con-
gress will he fully and thoroughly dis
cusscd; and 1t will be clearly shown that
the radical party is simply party OF en-
thusiasts, fools and designing demagogues'
who place the negro above the white man.
and in their struggle to accomplished least
his social and political equality, are willing
to sacrifice the country, and 10 perPefuGte a
aisnnion, which, for more than year, they
have Jorcibiy kept up.
We shall also take occasion 20 show the
value Of the county printing, which you
have so long enjoyed through the Abolition
county officers, so that the people may find
out that, after all, BIcKnAM-the individual
BIcKHAM-has about as large an interest
pecunidrily speaking, as any candidate on
the ticket; and then we may raise the is
sue whether BICKHAM shall be any longer
sustained by the people of this county
not simply by their votes, but with theii
money.
Tread lightly if you please. 1t takes two
to make fight. We promise you good
one-and ventilation of good many
more things than you dream of just now
It's about time the old "boot story shoulC
be rewritten for the benefit of the new
residents of Dayton-especially as the here
will run for Congress.

Doesn't Read the Papers.

1t is evident that the Journal editor does
not read much in his exchanges. He pub
