DEATH OF GENERAL THOMAS.

The brief announcement bv telegraph from
San Francisco, of the death Of Gsueral THOMAS,
has cast glem over the land. His bravery
and his patriotism we're alike regarded by all
parties, aud his sudden death from apoplexy
may well be considered = misfortune to the
nation. A braver or q better ofheer has but
seldom held command. A general order frum
the Headquarters OF the Army announcing the
death Of General THOMAS, gives an account Of
his life and services, and states that General
SHERMAN has known General THONA AS inlim Ite-
ly since they sit ON the same bench, and the
quality which he hnids up for the admirati n
aud example Of the young. was his complete
and eutire devotion u duty.
Though sent to FlOrila, Mexico, Texas and
Arizona, when duty there was positive banish-
meut lie went cheerfullY, and never asked a
personal favor, or leave Of absence In battle
he never wnvered; firm and full Of faith in his
cause, he knew II would prevail. H. never
sought advancement nf rank or honor at the ex-
| pense Of any Que. Whatever he earned of these
I were his own; aud no ono disputed his fame.
! The very impersonati0n Of hOneAty. integrity
aud honor, he will stand To us AS tho beau ideal
Of the spldier and the gentleman. Though he
| leaves no child to bear his name, the old army
Of the Cumberland, numbered by tens 0f ihou
sands, called him father and will weep for him
tears Of manly grief. His wife, who oheered
| him in the darkest hour Of war with her mess
age of love, will muurn him now in sadness
ehasiened with the sympathy Of the whole
| country.
The last sad rites due him as a man and SOL
dicr will b. paid at Troy, N. T., on the arri al
Of his remains, and the friends Of his fami
! and all Of his comrades who eau bs present, are
invited there tn share in the Obsequies. At al
military posts and stations 6dgs will be placed
| at half mast, and fifteen guns fred nu the day
after the receipt Of this order, aud the usnl
badges of mourning be worn thirty days"
By command Of General sherman.

THE CONGRESSIONAL CAM.
PAIGN.

TIE Congressional Campaign promises to be
short, sharp and decisive. The shortnoss u
the period has not admitted Of any formal ef-
fort in the way Of mass meetings or stamp
speakhg. There has been no eAtraueous ed'rt
1, create enthusiasm or 10 coax men TO dis.
c'largc their duty at the ballot-b,x. This high
pterogative Of citizens, should ever be excrs
cised with promptitude.
AS ths people in this republic are virtually
the source Of all political power, the exercise Of
the franchise becomes really the maiuspriug Of
all the good or evil which results from the &C.
tion Of officials who administer its affairs. An
incompetent, dishonest official holds his posi-
tion By virtue Of tho direct vote Of the people.
or by the appointment Of those who have thus
been elected. With relations thus intimate ex
isting between the governed aud those who
govern them, we may well assume the position
that all the good and III Of the system of gov
ernaicnt under which we live, proceeds directly
fram the popular vote. Such being the case.
every voter is responsible for the exercise Of this
precious privilege OF eitiIcnship--thc right q
voting.
The Spring election has usually been held to
place merely our local officers ia authority. On
this occa+iou, however, we are called on to eE-
srciss Me right of suffrage to elect Repre-
sentative for Congress-. The current events af
tire past few years indicate the important con-
sequences which result from the exercise Of
legislative powers, and with equal force they
show the imperative need of full and emphatic
vote Of the whole people TO determine who shall
be empowered to act as our National Legislator,
and Aiso by such vote to indicate the policy BY
which he shall be ae.uated.
With saeh important objects to be attained
simply by using the vote tn which every citizen
is entiued, how important is it that that vote
should at all times be fairly and honorably cast
We're every man to discharge this, his obliga-
tion to his common country, In faithfal man
ner. thero would be far less corruption in polit-
Scal parties, and fewer causes of complaint
sgainst tlIose who, by means of them, have at
tanned official positions.
Ia view of our duty as citizens, and as mem
bsrs Of the great Republican party Of the ma
tiJu, and for the credit Of Wood county, which
i,as received the honor Of presenting one of it,
hIHNrei citizens as a candidate for Congress
we hope thar a full vote will be recorded, anc
that Dr. r. ID. PECK will receive the largest ma
] ,rity hat has been given in il for any Con
Ersssional candidate.

OPPOSED TO WOMAN SUFFRAGE

Mrs. NJ. p. DAscoNBg, the Principal Of the

We acknow ledge no iuferioriIy 10 men.

than they have 10 perform those imposed upon
them.
We believe that God has wisely and we'll
adapted each sex To the proper performance Of
the duties of each.
We believe our trusts to DO as important
and sacred as any that exist GU earth,
We feel that our present duties fill up the
whole measure of our time and abilities; and
that they are such as none but ourselves eau
| perform.

all efforts 10 compel rs To assume those 0blga-
tions which oann0t be separated from suffrage
! but which cannut be performed by us, without
the sacrifice of the highest interests 10 our fam-
! lilies, and of society.
Ii is our fathers, brothers, husbands and sons,
who represent us at the ballot box. Our hus-
| bands are our choice, and one with us. Our

even at the ballot box, TO be thus more full and
impartial than it could possibly be, were all

! We d., therefore, respectfully protes tagainst
any legislation to establish "wOmen's suffrage"
