A Case OF Total DeprayIfy.

a Case OF Total DeprATitS.
The blue and cold collapse in which
he wheeling Register finds the mort.
und body of West virginin Democ.
acy demands the prompt application
lf vigorous remedies. Csmden's oil
md Mayors drugs have proved inef-
icient. All the wisdom of the whole
democratic faculty assembled IL con
Lultation can give no hope of recovery.
AN they now desire is to keep their
patient alive until election day, when
they think they can, by drenching him
with whisky, give him strength enough
to go through the motions of a contest.
Aud with this sole hope, end and aim,
they resolve TO stick to the orthodox
Democratic treatment OF desperate
cases, the system OF deliberate and
wholesale lying. The Register of yes
terday while It's face was as long as the
Maine majority, holds the nose of weak
but protesting Democracy and pours
into the death rattle of Its throat a dose
of double loaded and double headed
lies. Such mendacIty would be sub
lime II 1t were not ridiculous and dis
gushing.
Take the following specimens:
add the 5000 to 5000 newly register
ed Conservative voters, and we have
the State beyond all question, by
handsome majority"
Notify ga handsome majority" even If
you had 5000 more votes than you have,
for it would take just about that num-
Der to bring you out even. The observR-
ton OF any candid man in any part of
the State, is sufficient TO show him
the utter absurdity of the statement
that there are 5000 newly registered
Conservative votes In the State. The
total increase in registration will not
exceed 10000 aud as every man who
has watched the progress of registra-
ton knows, the Conservatives don't
begin TO have the half o! the number.
The best posted Radicals themselves
are dlsheartened and dismayed. Some
oftheir most reliable calculators quiet
Iy acknowledge their inability TO carry
West Virginia in October"
Name single Radical, we'll or Ill
posted, reliable or unreliable calcu-
lator, who quietly or any other way
acknowledges Radical inability to car
ry this State. The only defeat or weak
ness We fear is such defeat and weak
ness as afflicted our Republican breth-
rem in Vermont and Maine, some
weeks since.
The early period at which the Regis
ter begins to air its arithmetic is "con-
fIrmation strong as proof of Holy
WRIT" that the space in its columns,
in which 1t yesterday assured the Dem
ocratic voters that victory was within
their grasp" will be filled on the 23d of
October with the familiar words "The
Dutch have taken Holland" They
know that II they are to cipher the
West Virginia election into Demo-
cratic victory, as they did the Maine
election, It is about time to begin with
their figures.
"More than One thousand men tVho
Voted The Republican Ticket tt0o years
ago, iDiH VOTE THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET
THIS YEAR PROM THIS CAUSE ALONE"
1t that tale needs an answer, 1t finds
one in the experience OF every one of
our readers. How many of your ac-
qualntance will do what the Register
says2 And how many will do vics
VerSGF Subtract the former number
from the latter, and you will begin to
see what plentiful lack OF truth can
De expressed by the small caps and
italics of the Daily Wheeling Ananias,
in an emergency like this.
Curran said that political organiza-
lions as we'll as physical bodies often,
MS they approached dissolution, broke
out in swarms of vermin. Judged by
thechRracter and quantity of the swarm
that Issues from the Modern Democra-
cy and Ancient Conservatism of this
State, in the way of fbs, its carcass is
about ready for intermeut.
UNION MEM Despite the brag and
buster OF your enemies, they are down
hearted and discouraged. They feel
that their race is about run and their
tale about told. You have but to keep
up the feeling, the organization and the
work you have so well begun, and you
will bring Ohio county into the Union
line with her sister counties, and West
Virginia to the head OF the Union line
OF her sister States. The Democra-
cy have given up all hopes of electing
Seymour. Their leaders in this State
have expressed their conclusions in a
secret circular which says: The cleo
ton Of our State ticket is OF much more
Importance than the election of PresI-
dent" About a week before the cleo.
ton they will issue circular printed
at the Register once, to the eject that the
election in Wetzel county is of infinitely
moreimportanee than the result In the
First Congressional District, and that
the widest and grandest scene - oy
the Grafton Convention, with the az.
pense Of telegraphing the same, was ali
wasted.
