cd ytu admit that the reports com.

as the elections in Ohio are con.
cerncd, be fully sustained by a
thorough investigation cf the facts
But il isnot, doubted that even al

were perpetrated to such an extent

The political contest of next week will be
fought squnrcly on the basis of Democracy
againat Radicalism. All minor issues sink
into insighi6cance, when this one great qucs-
tion is agitated: To the white men of the
country, the Democratic party represents the
only political party which is in favor of ac-
cording toithe South any of the rights of
FREQ government. Itiis the only party, that is
IN favor Of carrying out tho faith pledged to
the. South on the surrender Of our. armies

fairly and squarcly on the platform Of the Con-
stitution. On the. other hand, so debased is
