Mr. GRAY is one of the most talent
ed and popular lawyers in the district,
and his nomination. gives universal /
satisfaction. This gives strength to
the ticket and adds one more to the /
list of those whom the people seek to |
serve them, and insures the defeat of |
one who seeks Office and is not the
choice of the people. 1t is conceded
by all that a better nOmin alton for
Judge than that of T. III. Gray, could
not have been made.
We clip the above paragraph from
the Register of this place, of last
week While we have no disposition
to detraet anything from the high
character or fitness of the Democrat
ic candidate for Judge, we are unwill-
ing to believe that his nomination
''adds one more to the list of those
whom the people seek to serve them,
and issues the defeat of one who
seeks Office, and is not the choice of
the people" 1t is we'll known to the
people who have lived hereabouts for
the last dozen years, if not to the ed
itors of the Register, that Mr.. Gray
has always been more ambitious to
obtain Office than the people have been
to give it to him. True he has been
a successful aspirant to the office of
village councilman and village mayor
honorable positions to be sure, but
they ere not equal to the task OF
satisfying his high ambition for office.
He painted for higher fame, and in
stead of the Office seeking Mr.. Gray,
he sought the office of Prosecuting
Attorney. He sought the office oi
Representative to the Legislature
twice in Highland county-it we are
rightly informed-and again he sought
the same position once or twice in this
county; and so anxious was he to OBJ
tain the position that he came out as
candidate in opposition to the regular
ly nominated Democratic candidate
( for Representative. A few years agt
he painted for judicial honors, ran 70
: judge. but so far from the Office seek
ing Mr.. Gray, he was given emphatic
ally to understand that the Office wa
! seeking some other gentleman. An
Il yet he panteth for office, and is agai
Il on the warpath for judicial glory, an
g again upon the ides of October Ii
: will be doomed-as upon other occas
u sions-tos hear, in solemn tones u
tered from the ballot boxes, ''Thoma
> Mitchell Gray, thou art not the man
II the Office was not hunting you, it wa
II t'other fellow"
Ill We lad not intended TO say an.
thing in relation to Mr.. G.'s inord
nate desire for office, but the Regi
ter having "dropped the glove" 8
re thought it ought to be taken up an
1r handled little.

: Governor Noyes and other Re
publican speakers report that they
have had the best meetings in South
ern Ohio that they have ever had. un-
less in the largest cities. The people
turn out, and they listen with ayidity
and interest. They all seem to feel
that if there is that need for reform
which the Democratic and Liberal pa
pers would baye us believe there is,
then the proper way to insure reform
is for Republicans to look to the bus
iness. There is no more hope that the
Democracy will bring about reform
than the Devil will transfer his affec
tons to holy water. On the othel
hand, the Liberals are powerless, fire
form is needed. it is for the Republican
masses to take hold. And this is wha
they are doing. They are hearers ant
will become doors.
One thing has been developed in Sc
strong and clear light that the way
farng man, though salary grabber
need not err therein-the people viii
not trust, they will not even listen to
any man who defends the Credit Mo
bilier frauds or the back salary appro
priation. No epithets are too stron;
for them, in denunciation of thes
matters. They are not content wit
: parliamentary language they will hay
a the word with the bark on.
For these reasons, the efforts G
some Democratic Journals of the base
sort, to create the impression that th
Republicans, as party, are respons
r BILE for the salary grab and the Cred
: Mobilier, excite only ridicule and dis
gust The people, being of the. RI
publican party and part of its spiri
5 ual essence, know of their own know
d edge that the man who charges til;
n party with such responsibility lies. H
d only makes himself odious and ridicl
: lous in their eyes by such idiotic on
{ sided partisanship. They know til;
J the party will hold its guilty membe
responsible to the uttermost for the
IS mIsdoings. The party is, therefore, I
more responsible for the wrong doins
of individual members in these ma
. ters, than community is responsib
for the crime of the thief whom

We have not thought it worth
while to give any prominence to the
noise which is being made by few
gentlemen in this community styling
themselves Irish-Americans We do
not believe that the spoils of office are
denied men because of their Iationali-

the good things are handed around
according to merit and personal pop
ularity But we do know that it is
getting rather too common for men to
be asking positions on tickets because
they are Irishmen, Germans, or ne
groes 1t is not unusual for mBn to
ask preferment upon the ground of
being Americans, and we can only
