Democratic Mass Meetings.

ByTHE OHIO STATEsAiAN, at Columbus,
we find list of appointments for various
speakers in Ohio, in some thirty odd coun-
ties. Judge Thurman, it seems, Is. going to
make vigorous campaign. And no man
in Ohio enjoys q better reputation both as
LAWYER and speaker than he. He is one of
the very best men in the country, and it
would be an honor to the great State of
Ohio to have him to preside over it as Gov
ernor. Judge Thurman is surrounded with
many other men of talent who feel deep
interest in his success, and will assist him
in the campaign. Among those who are
already assigned to canvass the State, we
fiud Hon. George III. Pendleton-one of
Ohio's noblest sons-Hon. d. ). Uhl, our
candidate for Lieutenant Governor; Hon.
R. Z. Ranneys of Cleveland; Judge P.Van
TRUMP, General g.. w. Morgan, Hon.
Frank q. Hurd, candidate for Attorney
General OF State, Hon. H. j. Jewett, and
many other able and talented speakers. 1t
is expected that mass meetings will be held
at each of their appointments, and the
speakers will be on hand. Hon. D. S. Uhl
and E. B. EsheIman, the talented editor of
The STATESMAN. will speak at Washington.
Fayette county, on the 23d of August, and

| Democrats OF Brown county, it is time
we had begun to cast about us to make
preparations for organization and conduct
the CdnDdlRu. Leu OISdulLc III cNCTy
township and every school district. This
work is assigned to the several Township
Central Committeeman. If we expect or
desire to achieve good victory for Con-
stitutional liberty this fall, we must em-
ploy the means to secure it. We must
work, distribute documents, hold meetings
everywhere, and thus inform all as to the
real condition of things in the country.
We can, il we will, increase the Democratic
| ofa in county five ci "
hundred this fall-for surely there are
enough white mems friends to do that.
Let us go about this business as if we had
heart in it, and were in stern earnest.
Our friends in other parts of the State are
at work, organizing, and making arrange
ments for meetings. In almost every
county of the State we see unmistakable
surely. if the people ever expect to
arouse and shake off the shackles
now being placed about the liberties OF
the people, it is high time they were about
| it. Kentucky, State that never seeded
from the Union, which was represented in
Congress during the whole of the war; is
now, since the war is over, distranchised,
thrust out from the Rump, and forbidden
| her constitutional rights in Congress. Ohio
may be the next State cast out. 1t is high
time for the people, in view of these revo-
lutionary, tyrannical proceedings, to come
together in mutual council, and prepare I'll
defend themselves and assert their rights
before it be forever too late. The hosts oi
bondholders who are untaxed, the hosts oi
negro-lovers who think themselves the
equals of negroes, are all at work, secretly
stealtlily, but in earnest. Shall we stand
| idly by, and see these endorsers OF mon
archy triumph over the people? Never
Let us arouse, then, and labor for the cause
of Justice, Constitutional Liverty, Equal
Taxation, and White Mans Government
