We promised last week to publish
Gov. Morton's great speech this week.
We sent to the Office of the Cincinnati
Commercial for one thousand copies,
containing not only Gov Morton's
speech, but also the speech of Gov.
Hayes. We fold these in all the papers
that go to subscribers in this county.
BY this arrangement, we have room in
our paper for the usual variety.
When you read these speeches, hand
them to your Democratic neighbor, and
have them circulated as widely as pos
sible. They will do muCh-goOd.

A SNEAK,

How ashamed.I feel What dirty bed-fellows
politics will make once in while. Mackley
writes an article for the Standard and signs him.
self "A Democrat"
That Democrat wrote that article, is sell
evident falsehood.
You can't produce the manuscript. In fact,
we nave definite information that Maekley wrote

tention, and can receive none.-Hsrald.
No sir. You have no such definite
information. We did produce the man.
uscript, and showed ito Mr.. Chapman,
leading Democrat, and a competent
Judge Ofhand writing, and both he and
Alanson Robbins, another competent
Judge, will testify that we did not write
it. We do not do such dirty tricks as
that. We leave all such nasty work to
such fellows as forge election tickets,
and forge town Ordinances, and forge
Statutes. Such fellows are generally
keen to accuse others of such dirty
tricks. Perhaps they really think 9th
crs are as great rascals as they are them
selves.

THE Democrats of Gallia county, too
weak to succeed alone, have gone to
buying up recruits They have NOM
mated Alex. League, a Republican, for
Probate Judge, and Charles Hunt of
Centrevillc, Republican, for Recorder.
Judge League has held the office nine
years, and he was a candidate before
the Republican convention, and there
pledged himself to abide the result OF
the nomination, and support the nom-
inee. Now he is running on the cop
perhead ticket And such is honor
among the new recruits.

One of the best points made by Gov.
Hayes when here, was the reading OF
an extract from Mr. Pendleton's speech
in Congress, Jan. 81, 1868, in which
Mr., Pendleton cried earnestly for peace,
and then reading from the letter of
Gen. Rosecrans to the Ohio Legislature,
dated Feb. 3, 1868, in which he said
all such men as Pendleton were enc
mics to their country, and traitors at
heart. In three days after Pendleton
had made this speech, Rosecrans said
any man who would talk so at that
time, was a traitor. Aud the Demo-
Gratis have nominated both ofthese men
for Governor. A pretty, and consist
ent party!

MANY persons wonder why DUNCAN
& DUNCAN, Connolly, Davis & Co.,
otherwise the "ring," make such blum
ders as they have done in the matter of
garbling a Statute and Town Ordi-
nance. Is it trickery, or ignorance7 ?
We think it is little of both. For
merly, Porter DuHadway, man Of
some ability and legal knowledge, was
consulted. Then, such blunders did
not occur. Now the "ring" is trying
to crush him out also. Cause why?
Porter, by his energy and superior
ability as lawyer, is getting nearly all
the Democratic law practice.

B. J. Loomis Esq, the talented corr
respondent of the Cincinnati CONNER
cial, stopped with us when here with
Gov, Hayes last week. When at our
house he wrote letter to the CONNER
cial, which was published in that paper
on Saturday. 1t concluded as follows
THE MEETINGS YESTERDAY,
OF which pretty full report was transmitted BY
telegraph were remarkable for two things--the
wan. of energy which characterize those charg-
ed with the duty Of making the necessary prepa-
rations, aud the prOmptness with which the
people responded to even the feeble call made
for their attention to public affairs. To the lack
of effort the committee plead that 1t was too
early 10 commence the campaign. The obvious
reply is that no meeting should have been an-
nounced and no speaker invited until they were
willing TO give the matter proper attention. .-
The neglect to secure proper railroad accommo-
datIons, the insignificant little posters stuck
around town announcing the meeting, diminu-
tive affairs such as are usually provided to an
nounce a constable's vendue of "old traps, " al !
indicated that unless the people were wider
awake than their committee, q splritless affair
was In prospect Thanks TO the wideawak etiye-
ness of the people, the meetings, afternoon and
evening were well attended In spite of these
djscoufagements. It was interesting, too, to
notice the intentness with which the speec hes
of Governor Hayes were listened to- Men
whose hard hands and embrowned faces gave
evidence Of their identity of interest with the
producing classes were close observers Of all
that was said, and as 0ne after another the facts
of Democratic mal-adml lnistratlon Of public
trusts were arrayed before them, the quick in
ellgence which received and applied these per-
tlnent truths, was evinced In running comments
soto poce between themselves quito as signih-
cant as the more bOisterous demonstrations o (
cheers aud clapping hands.
THE REPUBLICANS OF JACKSON
Were 80 wide awake In their work of prepare.
that they deserve especial mention for the In
tcllgent zeal with which they made arrange.
ments for the meeting to-day. As soon as thew
learned on what day they were to have visit
from Governor Hayes, they engaged an excur-
sion train, TO do which they promptly deposited
one hund red dollars to indemnify the railroad
company against loss. The Portsmouth Brass
Band was engaged to be present, and the time
of the train so fixed as to accommodate the larg-
est number. AS result of this kind of pre- pa.
ration, the meeting of to-day will of course, be
successful 1t is just as true In politics as In
military operations, that success consists OF
only In having the big battalions, but In get
| ting them promptly into action. Thus far In
the campaign, as compared with that OF 1867,
there has been quite as much interest manifest
ed In the discussions as in the former year. The
only thing particularly needed now by the Re-
publicans is TO have Democratic candidate for
Governor take the stump BILL.

did not hit the farmeTgI And Will Mr..
Connolly, "Clerk of Village &c." tell
me how these words came into the
Ordinance on the third and last week
OF its publicatiOni Who had it chaDged7
Did the Council meet, and modify and
change the Ordinance, so as to leave
the farmers of Jackson county clear!
Or did Mr.. Irvine DUNCAN, editor OF
the Herald do itl Here Is something
Mr.. Connolly, which looks about as
much like rascality as your leaving the
three words off the Statute which you
attempted to quote. Now you must
tell how this Ordinance came into this
new form, or the farmers &c. will
again be benefited.
There is copy Of the Herald paid
for by the county, on file in the Au-
ditor's Office, to which any citizen of
the county has the right of access. Let
any farmer who may doubt what | say,
go there, and compare the Ordinance
as it appears in the Herald of August
goth, with it as it appears in the same
paper of the 9Th and 18th
For the present l will leave Mr..
Connolly in the hands of the farmers,
whom he attempts to mislead and de-
Ceive, while pretending to write for
their benefit, and will turn my attsn-
tention to Capt. Davis, candidate for
the important and responsible Office of
county Commissioner.
Some two months ago, several per-
sons, mostly Democrats, approached me
upon the subject Of buying Diamond
Furnace property for county infrm-
ary. l was in favor Of the proposition.
1t was proposed to call a public meet
ing, irrespective of party, in order to
further the matter A short time be-
fore this, Capt. Davis and Levi Dun
gan had sold their interest in Fulton
Furnace, and of course had plenty Of
means They were particular friends.
Soon after had spoken in the Standard
about the Commissioners buying the
property, | heard that Levi DUNCAN
and Lewis Davis had bought it. When
i, the fuss was got up among the Demo-
crat about the nomination of candi-
date for Senator, some of them pre-
tended to reveal secrets which should
awaken the public, whether these pre-
tended secrets be true or false, 1t will
do no harm to be vigilant.
These disaffected Democrats say that
DUNCAN and Davis bougat the Diamond
Furnace property for IS, 700, and the
deed was made to Levi DUNCAN, and
il was the plan to nominate Davis for
Commissioner, and if he could be
elected, he and Vinton Powers were to
buy the property from Mr.. DUNCAN,
and pay him $4,000 for it, of the pub
lie money, Here each of these worthless
would pocket by this little scheme,

Editor of the Herald;


am Informed that some Uhiniag UiSdicGre
persons, solely with n view and purpose Of in
Turing Capt. Lewis Davis, as the Democratic
candidate for County Comm issioner are clrcu-
latlng report to the effect that Capt. Davis ls
in partnership with me In the purchase Of the
Diamond Furnace tract of land, and that our
object and purpose Is to try and elect Davis
Commissioner, and sell the property to the
County as an Inhrmary Farm, at an eKhOrblAnt /
price. This report Is an original ialsehood :,
manu- factured for the occasion, and ls every
word false. Neither Capt. Davis, nor any other
man, has any interest, directly or indirectly, with
me, In the contract Of purchase of said lands.
And, as to the County purchasing II for an In
frmary Farm, know nothing and care less. IL
appears TO me that all such persons, as have
exhausted their political stock In trade to such
an extent, that political purposes they must
dabble In my little pr iyate business transactions,
might be more honOrably aud appropriately en-
ployed IN attending to their own business.

have nothing to say about Mr..

in his "lttle private business tranSac-
tons" know about some Of his
"transaCtiOns" which are very little, and
'acesdingly privatei but Of these | will
not speak at present. But when Mr.
DUNCAN is about to repeat the old Iron
Valley transaction, the public ought to
be on the alert, Mr.. DUNCAN dabbled
in little private transaction there, by
which 81, 900 of the public money was
lost to the county do not want Mr..
DUNCAN or his nephew to cry "he," but
il they want the eviden &C, it is a matter
Of record. OF course it was all done
legally, and perhaps the nephew will
say it was morally right, as he isa judge
of moral character.
Judging Mr., DUNCAN by his former
transactions, l believe he is none too
good TO enter into just such a scheme
for gouging the treasury.
There is another circumstance which
looks suspicious l was not in the
county convention, but | was told by a
man who was there, that the name OF
Capt, Davis was announced as a Candi-
date for Representative, and that at
such announcement Mr. DUNCAN, who
was not delegate, became very un-
easy, moving about among the dele.
gates, and finally hc beckOned Capt.
Davis outside of the bar aud whispered
TO him earnestly, when Mr., Davis went
in and declined But when the name
of Mr.. Davis was announced as candi-
date for Commissioner, there was no
protest, either on his part, or that ol
Mr.. DUNCAN.
Taking 1t altogether, I think the
people will be apt to see that this pretty
little scheme shall be thwarted Vote
for Adam Laokey, who is as honest aI
the day 10 long. D. M.
