Editors Of the Register:
The Democracy in this section would
be pleased to have our National Con

mend a fusion or union by all who are
opposed to the continuation Of the
Grant Dynasty, on q similar basis tc
that proposed by Governor Ran.

the most feasible plan yet proposed tc
overthrow Radicalism.

tons of the State are reminded that the

over one hundred of the lending DEM
ocrats of Ohio county occupied seats 10
that Convention, and voted unanimously
for the nominations Of j. N. CAMDEN for
Governor. And now honorably stand BY
their nominee.
