SOBER-MINDED men of Belmont
County, We are engaged in one Of
the most important conflicts ever in
augurated in our State. The fact has
been again and again presented before
you that the aggressions of the Roman
Catholic Church, through its emissary
and instrument the Democratic party
meant more than an ordinary contest
for political supremacy in the State.
We again affirm this truth, and say,
from an honest conviction, that
mighty considerations press you to
consider the duty of the hour. When
the Catholic Church felt unable to win,
she conformed to the laws of the State
controlling all churches alike and
granting liberty to all alike. But see,
the rapacious NAV of the evil and de-
signing leaders of the Democratic party
cries Office Office! the Catholic church
says-"We have fifty thousand voters
in the State we will give to our natural
ally il you assist us in our designs upon
the public Schools and the Democrats
say We'll do it, and renominate in Gin
cinnati, Geghan, the author of the law
doing the bidding of the Catholics, and
repudiate the man who dared to op-
pose the infamous Geghan law. Does
this have no significance

RepubIicans--What of the Night?

Are you alive to the issues of the
hour. 1t is too common in campaigns
like the present to push the response
bility of work upon the shoulders of
some active worker. There is work
for all. a change of three votes in a
township is amply sufficient to insure
success in the county and State. When
Bill Allen was accidentally elected
two years ago, one vote to a township
more would have defeated him. Are
there not some men you can reach-go
to your neighbor, talk with him-tell
him of the Importance of the conflict
interest yourselfin seeing young voters,
have them vote right-look after the
aged and helpless, provide a way to
get them to the polls, and thus early
see to it that no business engagements
are arranged to keep you or any Re-
publican from the election. On you,
personally, devolves a solemn duty.
We beseech you, quit you like men,
work Increasingly for success and vic
tory is assured. ..

From the Presbyterian, Phila. Sept. II, 1875. ]
The Catholic Telegraph, of Cincinna-
ii, says: THAT the unbroken and solid
vote of the Catholic citizens Of the State
will be given to the Democracy at the
fall election
AS far as we remember, this is the
first time that distinct avowal has
been made that whole Church has
given in its adhesion to one political
party. 1t is ominous but there is safe
ty in the avowal. No Protestant
Journal would dare to utter such sen
tence; but that it can be said must
arouse the public mind to the perils
which impend over us from the haugh-
ty Church whose. edicts are thus pro-
claimed.
Furthermore, it is stated that. on last
Sabbath, ballots were distributed in the
Roman Catholic Churches of the city of
Patterson, New Jersey, to be used in
the election which was held in the
State Of New Jersey last Tuesday.
These ballots were intended to be cast
against the provisions proposed to be
inserted in State constitution forbid
ding appropriations of public money to
sectarian Institutions. This says the
n. Y. Times, is perfectly consistent
with the teachings of the Infallible
Head of the Church, but it is position
which will never be approved, when
once understood, by the people of any

ond Tuesday of October, ofrighting the
wrongs of their almost ruined country
We knew Old Bill and the Democratic
Legislature, with their swindling and
briberies and corruptions, had done a
great deal of damage during their short
lease of power, but we do hope it is not
quite as bad as Old Bill represents.
The country may be badly damaged,
but certainly it cannot have been al
most ruined in less than two years OF
Democratic stealing. Old Bill certiti-

THE value of the greenback, under
the influence of the initiation move
ment, is going down. The industrious
and formidable attempt to debase the
currency is already having an impor-
tant influence. II this debasement pro-
crosses little further, there will be a
rise in the price of all the necessaries of
life. That is to say, the purchasing
power of the currency will be reduced.
All persons on salaries will thus prac-
tically have their salaries cut down.
They will seek to have their salaries
advanced of course, but they will be
resisted on the grounds of the uncer-
tainties of business. The laborers who
live upon the proceeds of work by the
day will be in a still greater degree suf-
ferers-for the price of labor per day
will lag behind the advance on the
price of goods. This is an illustration
on the declaration made by Andrew
Jackson in his letter to Moses Dawson,
that paper money is u particular curse
to the laboring men.

Cause and Effect.

Dick Trevellick, a vepdor of cheap
communist hash, whom the Democrats
regularly import into this neighbor-
hood to bleat Democracy through a
soaped horn and Call it noise for work
ingmen, speaks of the mep who have
been more fortunate than their fellows
in accumulating a little wealth, as
"Robbers;" so did Ball. This is virtu-
ally the doctrine of the infamous COM
mune. A room full of citizens convene
to reason together, and a premeditated
assault is made to crush out the discus
sion in blood. Such was the effort on
Friday night-disgraceful fruit-of in
famous doctrine. Honest thinking men
of Belmont County, has it come to this p?

THE Democrats of Mississippi resolv-
ed, last winter, to establish reign of
terror in that State, if they could sue
ceed in no other way. They were de-
terrined to carry the State, and ifthey
could not outnnmber the negroes they
could, at least, murder them. The
work of slaughter appears to have been
begun at Clinton, and the news of out
RACES in that quarter are but the pre-
lude to a general campaign of blood
which the Democrats have, of set pur-
pose, planned as their sole means of
attaining POLITICAL power. The Clin-
ton outrage was not accidental or
casual; it was part of general plan,
formed in cold blood, and prosecuted
with political venom.

THU RMAN AT CLEVELAND.
His DemagOguery EXpOsed---A
Brief Review of His Speech.

Much had been expected from the
Ohio Senator and model Democratic
champion of the modern Jackson De-
mocracy. 1t was judged by both pO-
litical parties that Allen Thurman
would with candor and dignity enter
the arena in way worthy the man
and the gravity of issues pending.
Friends and opponents were antici-
pating something decisive on the ques.
tion of the currency. Much was ex-
pected worthy the gravity of the ques-
tio1 involving the sublime interests of
our Free School system. Much was
expected in answer to the speeches of
Judge Taft, who dealt largely in facts
and figures and their logical demon
strations. Much expected by way of
review of the manly, dignified and
logical speeches of such men as Noyes,
Hayes, Sherman, &C., who opened the
campaign on the Republican side, and
who deal in facts and figures and argu-
ment. 1t is safe to venture the state
ment that his speech disappoints every
Republican and every intelligent DEM
ocrat; the former because it is a failure
in everything that constitutes hOnora-
BILE and instructive debate; the latter
because it takes no side of the many
sided positions of the Democracy, or all
sides as tie many-minded party may
happen to decide. Very striking is the
contrast of the leading speeches OF the
Republicans.
The first colum or more of this re-
markable speech, as printed in the
Cincinnati Commercial, contains some
three or four long paragraphs, most of
which is mere general and loose decla-
mation-charging corruptions without
specification or proof as would be re-
quired by any impartial tribunal
charging corruptions unparalleled in
the history of corrupt administrations
prattling out like the small stumpers
of the school house or bar-room, charges
refuted, so far as Ohio officials are con-
cerned, by Governor Allen and the
Democratic Committee of the Ohio
Legislature reporting on the official
conduct of the Republican administra-
tion which had given place to Allen
and the officials of the Democratic
party. .'.sl-.'oi

DURING the recent Republican meet
ing at Barnesville, the long haired,
kid gloved individual, who seeks to
represent this county in the Legisla-

commenting on the Geshan law. In
his great desire to defend the Catholic
Church he left the impression upon
Mr.. Burns mind that he was a
Catholic Priest, and hence was treated
by the Senator as Father Vance.

THE Republicans. of New York have
made noble ticket, and one that can
not fail to be elected. The. resolutions
constituting the platform are excellent,
in the main,-the financial plank, of
course, expressing the sentiment that
prevails in New York. George William
Curtis was the Permanent Chairman of
the Convention, selection which hon.
ored the Convention as much as it did
the man. Frederick w. Seward was
selected for Secretary of State, General
Spinner for Comptroller, General Mer-
ritt for Attorney General, and Rev. B.
T. Ives, one of the most popular Meth
odist divines in the State, for State
Prison Inspector. 1t certainly must
succeed if Republicans put forth any
effort whatever.

"ell." He knows that without the aid
of the old repenting rebels, and with
out the aid of the Catholic priesthood
and church, their is no living prospect
of their return to power. Hence, the
unprincipled shifting of platforms and
orators; one campaign one thing, an
other campaign the opposite. Hence,
this trucking speech of this crawling
Senator. Hence, this double-faced way
of keeping out of view the forms OF
adopting Constitutions-a final vote on
each section as passed in Convention,
which may be yea; and the final vote
on the Constitution as Whole, which
may be nay.

THE nomination OF Geghan for an
other term in the Legislature, by the
Democracy of Ohio, was so palpably in
the interest of the Catholics, that even
Protestant Democrats could not over
look it. The Cincinnati Enquirer,
faithful until now, bolts this nomina-
ton, and calls on all good Democrats
to scratch him. And yet the party
that thus clings to a church which de-
mands the breaking up of our public
school system, assumes to ask the votes

buried in the cemetery where his body
is refused burial. The cause of the re-

there is his connection with the Cana
