This year they cast only 32,587-or
a loss Of Il, 1868. This vote If it had
been out would have satisfied the
/, Democrats that they were not haY-
ing as much of a revival as they ex-
ult over. And that is bat sample
of the whole State. But why was
the vote not out2 Over confidence
Was evidently one reason, but "want
of confidence" and apathy was quite
as efficient in keeping the peo-
pie at home, Republicans may as
well learn the lesson first as last, and
the sooner they learn it the better
for their political prospects, The
people we're sick OF. the credit mobi-
lier and salary grabbing They did
not condemn those things for moth
ing, and while they would not go
with the Democracy, remained at
home, rather than to appear to justi-
fly such deeds, by participating in
the election. The Republican party
have it in their power to poll as
large a vote as ever in Ohio, next
fall, and they VIII do so if Congress
comes to the rescue promptly. The
increased salary law must be repeal
ed, economy in every department
must be insisted on. There must be
no appropriations to subsidize this
railroad, to build this canal, or assist
steam ship companies. There must
be no yielding to the demands of cor
porations for land grants. Let Re-
publicans stick to their platform and
keep what is left of the public do
main as a heritage for actual settlers
Let economy rigid and careful be
observed, and honesty and integrity
maintained and required, and there
viii be no short coming in the Re
publican vote next fall But let
them fail in these things and they
need not wonder if those whose hon
est impulses have kept them from
the election this fall, fail to put in
an appearance at another election.
Not only has the October elections
but the November elections as well,
demonstrated this position.
