JUDGE CURTIS ON RECON
STRuCTlON.

We publish this week, the very able
and Interesting letter of Judge, G.. T.
Curtis of the United States Supreme
Court addressed to the New York
World, on the subject of reconstruc-
ton. We commend this letter to the
careful perusal of every conservative
man in the county. Judge Curtis
has presided in the Supreme Court of
of the United States for many years,
and has always opposed the Demo
cratic party. The letter may be re-
garded as n candid avowal ofhis opin-
ion on the constitutionality of the va
rious acts of Congress on the recon
struction of the Southern States.
When such n man as Judge Curtis is
compelled, as a lawyer and %jurist,
to declare all the acts of Congress
looking to a coercive change of the
constitutions of the Southern States.
a unconstitutional and void, it will
be well for the people to carefully
consider thePropriety of castinga vote
in favor of sustaining the usurpative
acts of Congress, for the reason that,
such a ballot may be the doom of the
Republic. Wepublish the comments
of the Cincinnati Enquirer-Read it,
and hand it to your neighbor.

their music up and down the streets
n number of times, and drumming to-

succeeded in getting together some
five or six hundred men, women, bows,
girls, and niggers. If boys, niggers
and girls, could vote, hen the array
would have been imposing but as it
was it would be safe to say that three
hundred legal voters, Democrats,
Republicans and all, constituted the
assemblage. Gov. Hayes went over
the old blood and thunder programme
at length, commended that the South

DEMOCRATIC MONTGOMERY
CLUB.

The Democratic cub of Ashland
was addressed on Thursday evening
Last by John X. Cowan Esq. of
Mansfield. The address was very
able and exceedingly interesting. A
very fine impression was made upon
the audience, which was very attent-
i've. After going over the usual field
traversed by the Democratic SPEAKERS
of this campaign, and making each
proposition a. clear as a demonstration
Mr. Cowan closed his remarks amid
much enthusiasm of the audience, for
a torch light procession by the ''white
boys in blue" About one hundred
and seventy five entered the process
sion headed by the martial band, with
banners having the whole number of
the States thereon and proceeded to
the front of the Miller Horse, where
they were again addressed by VIM.
&. McCarty, DIR. Sampsel, and Mr..
Mr.. Rogers then sung a few
patriotic pieces, and the audience dis
oersed. A few drunken Republican
rowdys attempted some Interruptions
the meeting, but were silenced and
away.

TICKETS,

1t will be proper for the Democra-
cy throughout the county to be on
their guard against spurious and
fraudulent tickets. 1t is an old trick
Of the enemy to print and peddle
tickets headed Democratic, with a
number of the names of the regular
nominees of the party left out; and
the names of favorite candidates of
the Republican party inserted in their
places. a candidate upon that ticket
at the present time, has been guilty
of that sort of strategy in days gone
by. We advise every Democrat to
carefully examine his ticket before
placing the same in the ballot box;
that he may not be imposed upon by
the trickery, hypocracy and deception
of a wary and INSCRIPTIONS enemy.
1t will be your duty, not only to ex-
anime your own ticket, but your in
peTfo"s dtdyt to e also that your neigh
Dor be not deceived. Be at the polls
see that all your Democratic
are there also; and make
it specially your duty to see that no
votes are cast by persons not
entitled to ote under our laws.

THE MOB SPIRIT.

1t is remarkable that the democrat
ic party cannot have an evening meet
ing or the street in Ashland without
being insrlted and interrupted by a
lot of brainless, | l-bred, drunken re-
publican blacsguards. When Mr..
Vallandigham was here a year ago,
the same class of puppies could not
forego the temptation to interrupt his
meeting. When Mr.. PendletonA a
gentleman of fine cultivation, and al
ways courteous in his speeches was
here, he was also i~nsultedby these same
i'll bred fellows; and the town dis
graced. On Thursday evening last the
programme was renewed, and a riot Sc
riously threatened in consequence

age of the democrats on parade pre-

build a palatial business block in

perhaps fit that such a man should

without blemish and his reputation
is not to be destroyed by a hypocriti-
cal political assassin like the writer CT

Critchield opposed the var in its

inaugurated by fanatics for the pur-
