VANCE made a speech at Marion
last week. This is one of his utter
ances:
"The battle in Ohio this fall will
tell, with no uncertain influence,
upon the coming Presidential con-
test"
Do you hear that, Republicans
In a private way you will be ap-
preached with the request to vote for
Allen, for Aleshire, for Upton, for
Mcdaniel, out of personal respect
and esteem, and when you have done
it your vote is to tell upon the COM
ing Presidential contest. Are you
willing to be thus counted? Are you
willing to swell the influence in favor
of democratic President? If you
believe such an event good thing
for the country, then vote the demo-
cratic ticket; but If you think other
wise, then make that opinion mani
fest by voting the Republican ticket.
This is no campaign for the display
of mere personal preferences. The
issues are national and of mighty i'm
port, and the voter should ignore per-
sonal considerations as things un-
worthy of his manhood, and vote for
that party whose creed and princi-
plies promise the most good to his
country. These democrats who will
ask you to vote for this or that can
didate on their ticket, will not them
selves divide their vote-they will
stick to their party nominees from
top to bottom of the ticket--knowing,
as Vance says, that it will tell in the
Presidential contest Will Republi-
cans be the dupes of snch men?
We think not.

The Cincinnati Gazette exposes the
false statements made by Mr.. Pendle-
ton, upon State finances, in his Gal
Iipolis speech. 1t shows by facts and
figures indisputable that every ma
terial statement he made concerning
Ohio affairs was erroneous or untrue,
and concludes that Mr.. Pendleton has
allowed himself to be duped by some
Democratic would-be 6pancier, who
has neither capacity to understand
the finances of the State, nor discre-
tion enough to CONCEAL his ignorance.
AS the campaign progresses these
misstatements of the democratic press
and orators will be made so clear that
none need err. 1t is easily done.
We furnished some facts last week,
and this week we add to them.

THE principal argument for the
election of Bill Allen is, that it will
give US more money, and ease up the
hard times. If Allen has such po-
tent power over these things, why
should we wait for his reelection.
He is now Governor, and has been for
quite two years, and yet no sign of
relief has appeared. 1t is a hmm
bug-a deception to catch votes. The
man in the moon has as much power
to relieve the country of its embar-
rassments as the reelection of Bill
Allen has.

He says 'our currency should con-
sist Of gold and silver, and, for con-

The respectable democratic Journals.
all over the country, protest against
the election of Bill Allen. They say 1t
means repudiation, bankruptcy and
ruin. Under snch circumstances can
respectable democrats IN the State
vote the so-called democratic ticket9
We trust the votes when counted in
October, will show that honesty has
more power over the masses than
mere party success.

The 800 Votes.

The Bulletin is still professed
unbelieyer in the matter of demo
cratic corruption in the late General
Assembly. Surely it will believe the
Cincinnati Enquirer. Well, here is
what that democratic organ said on

cused:
"a number of statesmen were kill
ed at Columbus last Monday when
those Wood county bribers were ex-
onerated."

In order to be a national democrat,
in these times of hard and soft
money, the man must have an india :
rubber conscience. In Ohio he is
required to talk currency, in Maine
specie, in West Virginia greenbacks,
in Wisconsin hard money, and so on
through the list. And another sin
gular feature of the situation is, that
in all the States, no matter whether
the question be hard money or cur
rency, the fathers, Jefferson, jackson,
Benton, ct al, are quoted in support
of the peculiar theories of the sew
eral localities.
This is the "great democratic par
ty''-the party that is to reform
things generally! How supremely
ridiculous the concern appears when
dissected.

- DEMOCRATIC candidates are going
about personally soliciting Republi-
cans to vote for them, pleading and
begging with all the powers of their
ambitious souls. They are full of a
non-partisan feeling just at present,
but wait until after the election, then,
should their honied words deceive
enough Republicans to elect them,
you will find them parading our
streets with banners, music, and tri-
umphant shonts and yells, celebrat-

Grand Democratic Victory.
That will be the thanks you will

the earnest and persistent begging of
a well known candidate for Congress,
some Republicans gave him their
votes, and what is their reward.

A MANSFIELD (O.) correspondent

OF the New York Tribune, says:
"One who makes practice to 'cal-
culate' prior to an election gives
Governor Hayes majority over Al
len at the October election of from
10000 to $4,000. He says that the
various local issues will draw out
nearly if not quito a Presidential
vote; and, as Governor Allen was
elected in 1878 by a small majority,
when fully twenty-five per cent. of
the voters remained at home, this
special interest viii greatly increase
the number Of those voting for Gov
ernor Hayes, while the relative in
crease in favor of Governor Allen will
be much smaller.

A very destructive fire occurred in the
business portion Of the town of Green
vile, at the hour Of 2 o'clock, Thursday
morning. The same portion Of the town
was burned down last fall with heavy
losses; it had been since mostly rebuilt
with brick. The principal losses as for
as heard are: N. B. johnson & Co.; E
Enos; Newman's Hotel; Nathan & Pohl;
d. White & Co.. Krebschirar & Farror.
The news was brought up by the clerk
Of the steamer John Kyle. Several per-
sons we're injured by the falling Of walls,
but no loss of life is reported.
A stiff breeze was blowing at the time
ofthe fire, and its progress was arrested
with great difficulty and peril.
We have not been able to learn
whether any Of our insurance companies
are losers, but it is highly probable that
they are.
