Z, ,REPuRIlCAN DUTY

Republicans should beup and do
ing, for the fallTeanvass will involve
the highest interests of the State and
nation. 1t is of the first conse-
quence; to select the .ablest and. best
men. for nominations in all cases,
and leave no room for chances.
The party, strong in its record and
its principles, will be strengerby Sc
lecting none but its best and most
trustworthy men. 1t is no time for
divisions on mere local questions.
We have to meet an enemy full of de-
vices and little tricks, and never slow
to avail itself of any clement of di-
vision, however, small in itself, to
work mischief to the general cause.
The canvass will be an important
one in every sense, and Republicans
should take early steps to organize
thoroughly for victory. tits the
full and complete vote that tells the
story.

RAscALITY IN HOLMES COUNTY.

The census just completed in
Holmes county shows that the Dem
ocracy ofthat stronghold were up to
the tricks of the Democracy Of New
York. The returns of the census
takers show a loss in population,
within the last ten years, of about
twelve hundred inhabitants. Yet,
strange as it may seem, every fall
election has exhibited a steady in
crease in the total vote, and cor
responding increase in the majority
for the Democracy. in the town
ship in which Millersburg is situa-
ted, the total vote of 1868 was S12,
as reported on the poll-book, out of
a population of less than 1900, No
wonder the Democracy look to
Holmes county for a heavy majority
at the return of every election. The
Democracy for years have cast an H.
legal vote ofnot less than five hun
dred in that county.--Keatoa Rep.

BE UP AND DOING.

But few weeks remain till the
October election will be here and we
would urge upon all Republicans
that they have sacred duties to per
form for the country at that time.
IL is not at all probable that the cam
paign will he noisy or exciting, but
on the contrary it will probably be
very quiet. The Democrats hope it
will be soquiet as to be forgotten by
many Republicans while the Dem
ocrats will come out in full force and
perhaps elect some candidates by
that means. Let eueTy Republican
be at the polls on the second Tues
day of October, prepared to vote for
the whole Republican ticket. i .

HOW DOES LOOK.

Hancock county, Ohio, has, fol
several years been obstinately Dem
ocratic. There three County Treas
urers have proved defaulters, in
succession, the last of these having
disappeared recently, leaving the
county short from thirty to sixty
thousand dollars. In the same
county the last Democratic Sheriff
proved q defaulter for $4,000, and
the Democratic County Commission
ers kindly gave the people an oppor-
tunity to vote a tax = TO. pay the
amount, but the people declined to
do it. In the Democratic county OF
Franklin the Treasurer proved a
defaulter, and was removed from
office, but has not been prosecuted
In the Democratic stronghold, Butler
county,the Treasurer took upon him
self to use the public money, and the
treasury WAS found empty, when il
should have contained over a hun
. dred Thousand dollars in greenbacks,
In the Democratic city of New York
stealing is reduced to system, and
Democratic officials pocket several
million dollars Of the public money
annually. These things happen
where the party has undisputed con
troll, and the practice should be con
sidered by people who are invited to
help the Democracy to obtain con
troll of County, State and NatiOna
Governments.

As Goes Maine so Goes the Union.
NEW YORK. Sept. l3.

New YORK, Sept. Is.
The Tribune this morning says
that the election in Maine yesterday
resulted in a substantial Republican
triumph. We have returns of the
vote for Governor from ITO towns,
nearly one half of the State, which
gives a majority of 5000 for Sidney
Perham, the Republican candidate
for Governor, against 1912 majority
for Chamberlain last year. We judge
that he is elected by from 5000 to
1000 majority, though the voting
has been so eccentric that it may be
hazardous to attempt close calcu-
lation as to the majority. The Leg
islature is largely Republican,
though the Democrats may have
gained a few members of the House,
and possibly one or two Senators.
The people seem to have been voting
mainly for the United States Sena.
tor, the contest being between Gov.
Chamberlain and the Hon. Lot NJ.
Morrill,. How that question stands
it is quite impossible to say at pres
ent, though our Portland cores
pondent says that Morrill, has the
Senate. All five of our candidates
for Congress are elected, the only
serious contest being against Mr.
Lynch, in the First district, who is
elected by about l 200 majority.

CONGRESSIONAL NOMINATIONS,

ber, being the 11th day, the people

ing been made in the several dis
tricts, we herewith present the
