~ The 18th Amendment does no
enter into the present campaign.
Ohio has rejected the 18th Amend
ment.
Any vote given for rejection will b.
of no value.
Cast no vote thinking it will affec
the result.
Ohio has decided No.
Democracy asserts it is sn open ques
tion-hoping thereby to secure voters
Be not deceived, Ohio hiss been count
ed against ratification. Under the
banner of "woolly head" Democracy
is trying to foist upon Gallis County
the leather heads and sore heads oi
Republicanism; to be skinned off as
refuse scum from the political cauldron,
when their end is attained.
Support no man for positions Of
trust whose principles can be changed,
to secure Office. Who is willing to
swear black is white, and white is
black, for County Office.
Pendleton favors secession-opposes
the payment of the debt. - Logue
is on the same ticket. Psndleton de-
clared the war q failure, our soldiers,
hirelings. - Logue, Pendlston and
Gates, are the trinity of the Democrat
ic party of Gallia County.
Citizen soldiers see to it that one
fate awaits them all, the old enemy
and their new found allies; bury them
beneath . storm of ballots, as Elective
ly as your bullets, in the late var, in
augurated under democratic teachings
and protection, consigned their trsitor
GUS friends to an untimely grave.
The Grand Army of your comrades
in the shadowy realms. look down upon
you. and beckon you on again to VIc-,
TORY over the combined hosts, who
threaten to cast contempt upon their
achievements, and dishcnor upon the
cause they died to maintain.
Your first victory was won by bull
lets. The last victory must be won by
ballots. So be sure of plenty of am
munition. and vote early, don't 60 alone,
take comrade with you.
Remember HAYES fought sriM you
PENDLEroN against you. Remember the
two vs. Vote = Victory.

~Col. Vance. Che Democrat

E Col. Vance. the Democratic

the way from Gallia county to speak
at Albin's school house, last week.
The masses failed to turn out; no

fallen, indeed. We feel for you,

No word of sympathy for our sol.
diers:
No word of encouragement for the
army who was fighting the battles Of
the Union:
No word of welcome or rejoicing
upon the return of the living:
No word of praise for the dead and
dying:
No aid to the sick:
No aid to the wounded:
No aid to the widow:
No aid to the orphans:
Yet, Gates d Co., are willing
to use their aid and influence to elect

ries of articles reviewing the sophis-

cles is devoted to the exposure Of

the subject of Labor and Capital
On that point, Mr. Rcemelin holds
him up to scorn and ridicule in a

Cone flth part Of the aggregate property

capital. Twenty-seyen hundred millions, or
more, consists OF Government bonds and La
bilitles; Of the twelve hundred millions, OF
thereabouts, Of railway capital, not over forty
per cent. has been utilized In aiding produc.
ton. The banks and the Immense capital
they WELD, with their vicious system Of dis
counts on short paper, ~ well as evil prac.
tices OF accommodating gamblers Instead Of
producers, have become more on drawback
than an aid to the producing industries
Bondholders, to q large extent, as well AZ
bankers, are employing the Government Sc
curitics to aid the schemes connected with
non-producing capital In making unworthy
gains of Of producing property and labor
Producing capital, discouraged by It's bur
dens, has been rapidly abandoning the pur
suits Of industry, until production In yer,
many cases has neither capital nor motive Il
continue under Its embarrassments. wha
Is to be the result Of this whole vicious plat
form Of false political economy, and how
long, under Its continuance, before our pro
ducing interests will be brought TO the non
producing level Of the Mexican populationi'
The industries Of the United States nevc
had such occasion to rally In defence Of thei
interests, we might almost say Of their exist

cause. Let every champion Of industry rail-
