Don't Trade.

Look out for all kinds ofroorbacks
between this and next Tuesday. The
Democracy are begging votes for
''Tom," as a compliment, and hope
by such means to get enough votes
to defeat Judge Pennewell. Don't
lose vote. Cast your ballot for one
who has never compromised himself
when the Union was in danger. Re-
member, that the Dem oeratie nomi-
nee was one Of those men who hung
upon the borders of rebellion, and
did not hesitate to rejoice when our
men we're defeated on the South ern
battle-felds, and to mourn when
they were victorious over the rebels.
No! No! Give no complimentary
votes. 1t is a trick of the enemy TO
win, and thereby secure for their can
didate an endorsement which he
ought not to expect where his record
is known. Vote the straight ticket.
Vote for Pennewell.

The threat to pass the McConnels-
vile ordinance if the saloon keepers
refused to vote for and work for
Seney, is a Yeritable fact and the De-
mocracy cannot deny it. The sa-
loon keepers know it, and for fear
the leaders will carry their threat
into execution they will even show
the pregnant hinges of the knee, that
thrift may follow fswDing." What
independent voters-to allow them
selves to be driven to do the bidding
of such men. Don't be alarmed !;
they Ike their toddy too well to risk
cutting of their own supplies. Be
honest and Cote for the best man.
Never fear that they will carry their
threat into execution.

Remember

Vote for the Farmer Candidates,
The agriculturalists of Sandusky
county never had q better occasion
to show they appreciate the effort to
place one Of their number in the most
responsible position Of any of the
county officers. The auditor holds
the strings to the public purse, and
can control the outlay better than
any other officer. The Treasurer has
no control, for when the Auditor
draws an order upon him his duty is
to pay. The Auditor is the legal
adviser, so to speak, of the Commits
sioners, as well as their clerk,
and can exercise a wholesome re-
straint if they manifest disposition
to be extravagant. While he is their
clerk, they cannot. discharge him,for
he is elected for a given time and
given purpose. Therefore, you
should consider the matter well, and
vote for John G. Fitch, the farmer
candidate for Auditor. One who is
worthy and well qualified for the po-
sition.
Henry H. House, our candidate for
Infirmary Director, is another of
your upright men, a practical farmer,
a man Of intelligence and honesty,
known everywhere for his fair deal
ing and correct department. On the
Board of Infrmary Directors he
would prove invaluable. If you
want reform you never had a better
opportunity to begin. With such
officers you may rest assured your
interests would be looked after.
Chas. G. Greene, although at pres
ent 8 resident Of our city was, UP till |
a few years ago, one Of those men
who held the plow and cultivated
the soil. Heis one whose sympathy
Is with the taxpayer, and who, if
viii see to it that no 'jobs"
are put up'' on the county to the
detrimsnt Of those who have to 9pay
The piper" There never was q bet

1t is dangerous for any candidate
to attempt to straddle two horses
going in a contrary direction, and
he who attempts such folly will fail
in the race-for such q candidate
deserves to be condemned and de-
feateG by the honest voters of this
district.-Wessenger.
Just so. And now, will you be
honest and not only denounce but
vote against George E. Seney,whose
''noble Words you so boldly embla-
zoned before your readers In a
double loaded paragraph. Those,
we mean, where he declares he has
"no money with which to buy votes,
&c" and then in utter defiance Of
his pledge to the public, visiting the
saloons Of Fremont, and besides
treating those assembled there for
that purpose, leaving money sOfth
a0tich to buy VOtes, with the saloon
keepers. 'He who attempts such
folly will fail in the race" The
Messenger man is a prophet-Geo.
E. Seney will fail in the race, because
"such a candidate deserves to be
and defeated by the hon.
est votes of this district"
The Fremont weekly journal. [volume] (Fremont, Sandusky County, Ohio) 1867-1877, 1874-10-09

We understand that secret efforts
are being made to defeat the election
Of Judge Collins, by the circulation
offalse statements touching his off,
cisl action and purposes. No more
upright Judge" ever occupied the
Bench, and the people cannot afford
to lose him, as they are not likely to
do.-T'oLedo Commercial.
Let The friends of Judge Collins
be on their guard against the tricks
ofthe enemy, that they be not taken
unawares. The same policy is being
pursued by the Democracy to defeat
Judge PenneWen, if possible. We
know Of a number of instances
where they have approached Repub-
licans and besought them to give
"Tom" vote just for compliments
sake. Other cases where they have
resorted to the most wilful misrep-
resentations to secure the pledge of
a vote, and whore they have even Of
fered to trade Seney votes for votes
for Finnefrock. Do not be deceived
by any oithese pretences. But vote
the straight ticket. They will de-
ceive you if they can get your votes
and then vote for their own candi-
dates. Don't trust them, but do your
own voting.

And the Democratic Junta Said:
Ifhe that selleth beer or wine,snd
gathereth in the profit thereof, will
not hearken unto our voice, and re-
member that it is we"Who have made
them and not they themselves" if
they will harden their hearts aud
stiffen their necks, because they have,
like Jeshuran "waxed fat" so that
they will DO longer obey us, and do
as we command them, then will we
excise them so that every soul shall
be cut of from among his people.
We will declare against them the
Nc Connelisville ordinance, and use
it upon them as a bosom of destruc-
ton. Yea,we will even place guards
at their doors, and when man goeth
in or cometh out, his breath shall
herald destruction TO the seller of
wine or beer or strong drinks, for we
will make note thereof. Is not our
nostrils accustomed to the fumes
arising therefrOm, and can we not
distinguish the odor of vine? Have
we these many years worshipped at
the shrine of Bacshius to be deciev-
ed by the scent Of his viands. Nay,
verify. And we will rise up in judg-
ment against these men, and will
overthrow them; I'VE will scatter their
trade to the winds and their profits
to the whirlwinds. We will be unto
them a rod of Christening and rock
of offense until they return to their
allegiance. Yea, we will plague them
sore if they lift not up their voices
against Foster and swear fealty to
Seney. They shall arouse them
selves and gather together their
friends, and when they have piled
them with drinks till their eyelids
are heavy and their senses enshrou-
ded, then shall they place in their
hands tickets for Seney, and lead
them forth like noble freemen to vote
for our leader, the valiant quarter
master, whose God was Vallandig-
ham. Therefore, ye men who sell
beer, and wine, and strong drinks,
hearken unto our voice if ye would
prosper, for all that we have declar-
ed, even so shall We do, that.y may
no more rebel against US. The Jun
ia hath declared it, and our hench-
men are changed with the execution
thereof. Hear ye and be wise that
ye awake not our anger against thee.

TRUE-Although the Journal was
circulated about twenty-four hours
before the Messenger was last week,
that paper did not have the hardi-
hood to attempt a denial of the
charge that Seney visited the saloons
treated the persons assembled there,
and left money With the saloon keep
ers "With which to buy votes" The
editor of thatpaper knew it was too
true to be denied, ane that too many
knew it was true, and his usual reck-
.lessness forsook him. He could not
deny it and hence said nothing about
it. Oh! those @noble words" of
Seney's.

senev,s Maralitv.

A writer In the Clyde ReGIeU says
of Seney that he stands "head and
shoulders above his opponent, both
Intellectually and morally.
The writer has evidently been mis-
led by Seney's"Noble Words, (which
so cnamored the editor of the Mes
senger that he printed them in 8
double loaded paragraph.
George said he had mo money
with which to buy votes"
That was his morality
His morality was an "easy"virtue.
He put it on as q cloak,
And put it OF as a hindrance.
He visited the saloons in Fremont.
He not only treated"all the Irish,"
as Milt said, but he deposited mon
ey with the saloonists "with which
to buy votes"
In doing SO he proved he had lied,
and that his morality was q sham,
for he had money, and he used it to
"buy votes.''
If moral man can lie then is Sc
ney moral.
If moral man can buy votes then
is Seney a moral man.
And if a moral man can do both
Of these, then may his friends claim
moral superiority for him over his
opponent, for his opponent don't
practice such morality.
At home Seney claimes to be a
friend of temperance, but when he
enters the saloons at Clyde and San
dusky and Fremont, he "puts down"
his share of liquid Democracy with
q relish, which shows him to be a
worthy exemplar of temperance.
If a moral man can do such things
why is Seney not moral?
We do not dispute the point.
Seney is moral-with vengence
The prohibitionists evidently be-
lieve him to be the moral superior of
Foster.
Gid Stewart, who is as moral as
an anchorite, and wears long hair, like
a Nazarine, to prove his virtue, in
sisted on nominating Prohibition
SO as to endanger if not
defeat the election Of Foster.
Gid's candidate cannot be elected,
but he may get enough votes to de-
feat Foster and elect Seney.
Gid must have believed in Seney's |
superior morality.
We have set forth what his NOR
atty is.
Can Gid Stewart, who profe sses
to be honest, give his influence to
elect such a man, when even the
Messenger declares that a'man who
would do as he has done "des erves
10 be condemned and defeated by the
honest voters Of the district"
And can the honest men who hold
similar views to those of Stewart risk
,lecting such a man as Seney, by
,asting their votes for mythP
1t will be poor qualification. But
hen, Seney is moral.
He has declared he has "no money
With which to buy votes" but has
dispensed his money among
aloons to control the voters.
And prohibitionists who vote for
deade and hereby endanger Fosters
lection, will be as guilty as Saul
Then he consented to the death of
stephen, and held the clothes of
hose who stoned him.
Yet Seney is moral. 8

False-And the Messenger and Mr..
ngnIySraov, EY1ar1 r.


False-And the Messenger and Mr..
Dickinson Knows It
The Messenger charges Mr.. Fos-
ter with buying votes to secure his
first election over Dickinson.
The charge is false in every par
ticular.
The Messenger knows it to be
false.
Mr.. Dickenson knows it to be
false.
We happen to know that that
campaign cost Mr.. Foster very little
money; and his success was very
largely due to the want of effort on
the part of Mr.. Dickinson's Demo
cratic friends-Mr. Seneg himself
not eVen raised hand to help him
and 1t has been strongly inttmated
thdthe voted against DickiasOn and
for Mr.. Foster.
Mr.. Dickinson understood this.
So did the Messenger.
In fact they both know that the
leading Democrats of Seneca county,
among them Seney, and Noble, did
not even treat Mr.. Dickinson with
common courtesy; and that it was
owing to their lukewarm support, as
much as to the efforts Of Fosters
that Dickinson was defeated.
The Messenger is hard up for
fuel, and cant start a fire.

The Wheeling and Lake Erie Road
Other Notes.

8AO w uGGAluE 6uQ 4dR6 GI1c GLOau--
Other Notes.
At a recent meeting at Sandusky,
in the interest of the Wheeling and
Lake Erie Road the following into
resting letter was read, from Hon.
P. C. Chapman, of Navarro, O., to
DR.. Stanley, of Sandusky:
NAvAREE, o., Sept, %.
DR.. Il. Stanley:
DEAR SR:-I notice in the Milan
Adce1fiser that you have received a
letter from Hon. r. II. Folger, in
which he pays a high tribute to the
value of the Wheeling and Lake
Erie Railroad. The Massillon peo-
pie would like to have so important
a road, as every day is developing
more of the Massillon coal, so called
on our line.
There have been four or five
parties drilling for coal since last
fall, and they have put down some
fifty holes and have been successful
in every instance. One shaft has
been sunk and they are now taking
out very nice article of coal. This
is certainly very encouraging and
the parties are all becoming impa-
tient and want an outlet for the coal.
Also there are other parties that viii
shaft just as soon as work is COM
menced all along the line. We are
losing valuable time and something
must be done soon.
General Mckee was just here and
showed me letter from Mr.. Stan
ley, saying that he was ready and
waiting for the company to get at
least the $4,000 per mile from Zoar
to Sandusky or Toledo, and that he
STANLEY would make short work of
that end of the line.
Now, it behooves Sandusky to be
up and doing at once if she wants
the road. The company cannot af-
ford to wait on any point of the line
six months longer and perhaps lose
some other interest that win be of
more value in the end.
Now, as a friend and well-Wisher,
my advice to you would be to act at
once if you have any desire at all
for the road. ! know that we can
put down coal at Sandusky of bet
ter quality than any you are getting
now at least one dollar less than you
are paying, and the coal worth at
least fifty cents more per ton than
any you are now getting, so that it
would make one dollar and fifty
cents on ton. That to Sandusky in
two years would be a saving of at
least three hundred thousand dollars.
l know I have not over estimated
the coal business.
Yours respectfully,
THOMAS C. CHAPMAN.
Will our citizens calculate the
value of that road to US and our
msnufacturers2 Will they open
their eyes to its importance? The
road will more than likely run
through from Milan to Toledo with
out touching Saudusky, except with
q branch. If it goes so, it will go
within few miles north of Fremont.
Can we not attract it here? With
the cheap coal it would afford US
and with our river TO bring US the
ores OF Superior, what is to hinder
Fremont from becoming a grand
manufacturing point. Delude not
yourselves with the fancy that it
will seek Fremont. 1t will not. Ere
mont must seek it, or some DAY be-
hold rival city grow up upon the
banks of the Sandusky, where the
railroad crosses it. Manufacturers
are in search of just such localities
and will seize upon them. We have
warned you time and again, because
we know whereof we speaI. Arouse,
and go to work.
