Inc terrible phantom of suspendihg all
business until thousand millions of gold
was collected, in order to resume specie pay,
ments, is OF course the laughing stock of ev-
cry well Informed man, and its presentation
on all occasions by editors and statesmen
serves to show that even these elevated pro-
fessions are not free from ignorance and
frauds of the most blatant character. CHI
cago Tribune.
The big crops reported in Ohio will do
more for the Republican party than all the
speeches made in the State since the cam
paign opened. Democracy thrives best on
the heels of famine, drouth, or a pesti-
lence. When it was reported that the great
floods had destroyed almost the entice wheat
crop, Bill Aliens chances began to loom up,
but as soon as it was ascertained that the
loss was not very great, they began to de-
cline. His last hope was for an early frost,
and the time for mischief from that source
has come and gone. The Democratic party
will, however be badly frost-bitten on the 18th
of October.-COmmerciat Advertiser.
Says the Chicago Times, which is anti
administration: "This action of Mr.. Schurz
is significant of the course of action which
the whole body of Liberals, and most Of the
naturalized Germans will pursue. It Is not
probable that half dozen speeches by him
can turn the sweeping rag-money tide In
Ohio; but it is pretty plain foreshadowing
OF the hopeless stranding of the resurrected
putrid retniniscence in 1915, on the same bot
tomless mud-bank of reputation where 1t
stuck fast in 1865"

Grow told the Philadelphia Republicans in
first speech, that his position on national
issues was unchanged. And then he pro-
ceeded to make ringing speech for honest
money. E. Joy Morris, another Greeley
Republican and Edward Mcpherson followed
In the same strain. Thanks to the Demo-
cratic delirum it begins to look as though the
pennsylvania Republicans, at least in the
eastern part of the state, would be fairly
forced over to the policy of honesty and COM
mon sense; especially if Carl Schurz responds
to their appeal.

This year the Republican vote is r. 900 less

The night of the late election, we saw a
leader of the Democracy in rural town at a
table in well known saloon. He was just
from our neighoor's Office where street tele-
grams announced that Bangor had gone DEM
ocratc by four hundred, Lewiston by good
majority and Skowhegan by two hundred.
lie had been drinking that pronounced rath-
er than insinuating beverage vulgarly known
as "forty rod whiskey." From each corner
of his mouth stream of amber fluid ran
down into his beard of a months growth
to reappear in rivulets upon his shirt front,
which, however, was not materially stained,
since that garments immaculateness had
evidently withstood as best it might, full
weeks wear of an active Democratic worker
the week before election. "We've carried
the state by 10000" excitedly declared the
leader. "For twenty years the Blacks have
carried it by not less than 25 900 majority,
and frequently 100000" Some one suggested
that he thought he was putting it a little
abrupt about majorties. The local leader
turned upon the fellow who had dared to
offer the suggestion. 'Look a-here, young
man, you're slave, minion, a radical office
holder; your facts ale from 'fshal reports
doctored up for effect. git mine from Dim
ercratic papers," That fellow must take the
Anson Adrocate and undoubtedly believes
that his party carried his state. The fact is
the Republican vote was increased nearly
5000 over last year and the Democratic over
$4,000. The Adrocate, however, isn't that
silly kind oil Democratic journal which
correc.s figures.

We would like to inquire of the PRESS if it is
true, as reported, that the officers of the Socie-
ty sold to parties the privilege of pool selling"
at the races this year, and if SO what became of
the protest in which tnat paper aud our own
united when similar breach of the laws was
countenanced by the same organization in this
city. We have noticed no structures in the
PRESS this year.
We think the Whig would have found an
unfavorable alluson to ''pool-selling" at the
State Fair in our report. We reserved the
matter for more extended and "abrupt"
notice until another time. We are under
the necessity of informing the Whig that
''pool-selling'' was most openly carried on in
defiance of the State laws against gambling,
nearly opposite the grand stand on the fair
grounds. 1t was, we understand, permitted
by the Executive Committee although ma
jority of the trustees were in out-spoken hos
tility to this public sort of gambling as are all
OF the better class of farmers in the State.
The tendency of the age is toward specua-
ton, and when games of chance have the
quasi sanction of many OF the leading men of
the state, it is not matter of surprise that
the distinction between legitimate business
transactions and gambling fades a ay.
The boy who makes dollar by lucky ven
ture in purchasing 'poop' is quite as likely
to follow his fortune TO the gambling house
and thence to ruin, since the professionals
hold nearly all the chances in their hal S.
No thoughtful man will willingly take his son
to any fair where he will have an opportunf-
ty to witness the workings of game of
chance like ''pool-selling". five must have
this sort of gaming, let the present laws be
abolished respecting gambling and admit to
to fair grounds for the practice of their re-
spective industries, all those eager gentle
men who are anxious to earn an honest pen.

The Boston papers generally speak of the
ticket nominated by the Republican Conven-
vention as an excellent one The nominees are
men of high character aud good business abil-
ity. The platform prepared by that veteran
Republican, Senator Dawes is simply admir-
able and with few changes could be used as
the declaration of principles for the National
Republican Convention. Massachusetts as a
State is considerably mixed so the contest
will be warm one. The Democrats in that
State have adopted Republican platform by
which as Senator Dawes says "they make
the most hu Initiating confession Of past folly
ever extorted from political organization
and signal tribute to the invincibe right
eousness of Republican principles" They
have also given two of the five places on their
State ticket to gentlemen who have hitherto
been Republicans. Gov. CASTOR has proved
to be very good official so that to the casual
observer the contest appears to be between.

For picture of the Democratic politicians
who control their party in Ohio, who con-
tfolled their party in the nation in 1854, 1868,
an 1872, and who bid fair to have their own

then served these politicians in all the can
vases to which we have referred. 1t is now
opposing them again. What it will do next

scription of them: "The corrupt coterie rep

Seymour in 1857 ''these blundering fana-
tics; "these red-mouthed statesmen" these

reer of Pendleton, who slaughtered Hen
bricks when his time was ripe, who now
have poisoned cup for Thurman's drink

AFTER the Developments of the Beecher

ly the proper person to instruct others how

THE midsummer madness of the Ohio
Democrats seems to be continuing into cold
weather, and there are indications that the
disease will become chronic. The Cincin-
natl Enquirer pitches into Tilden, whom it
styles the representative of the money power,
in way which even the Argus will find in
consistent with the theory that the Democ-
racy is united band of brothers, ex-
tracing from its vocabulary such words as
"rascap' to express its adherence for the
men who ''are determined to force Tilden
upon the Democratic party"
