= The Democrats in Cincinnati
were remarkably vigilant in getting up
names of prominent Republicans to
the call for their indignation meeting,
gotten up for the express purpose of
manufacturing little political capital
out of the Louisiana troubles. They
soughtto make the proposed "indig-
nation meeting" popular, and hide the
real obje cts of the meeting by the use
of the names of Republicans, withou ut
their knowledge or consent Several
Of them have come out in the city
papers and exposed the fraud
Not only did they afIix the names of
Republicans to their call, but they had
the brazenness to put some Republl-
cans in official positions, at tins hum
bug Indignation Democratic meeting,
This trick would not work, and the
whole thing is exposed to the country
to be nothing else but-what the De-
mocracy thought to be mighty
shrewd piece of strategy But Repub-
lieans are not toIbe so easily fooled with
Democratic meonshne.

Wanted,


We want 500 new subscribers to
the Herald, and we are confident
they can be obtained, if all who disire
a frst-class county paper, would use
their efforts to increase the circulation
Of the HERALD; 500 additional sub
scribers could be obtained in this
county. We are not disposed to com
plain of our present circulation, but
we do think that there are at least five
hundred persons in the county who
do not take our paper who can well
afford to do so, and the benefits to
them and us would be mutual, and the
real value of the paper would be in
creased to those who are already sub
scribers, because we could afford to
make the paper better. Let our friends
give us helping hand-a little talk
ing to your neighbors might do a
gread deal in this direction.
- The Michigan and Ohio railroad
company, who propose to build rail
road from Grand Haven, Michigan, to
Portsmouth, Ohio, ask the people
along the line, between Columbus and
Portsmouth, to make a donation to
the company of the right of way and
$4,000 per mile to ensure the making
of the road the balance necessary to
build the road to be obtained by stock
in the company. The Circleville Dem
ocrat says "the subscription of $4,000
a mile asked by the Michigan d Ohio
railroad company, would amount to
about 1925, 900 in Pickaway county,
exclusive of the right of way" 1t
will require donation of S125,000 to
take it through Ross, and something
besides to pay for the right of way
With such presents as these the com
pany can afford to build the road.
Whether the citizens can stand the
pressure or not, is yet to be tested.
- The Sheriff of Pickaway county,
very properly, as we think, has request
ed the newspapers of Circleville not
to publish the names of persons
against whom bills of indictment have
been found by the Grand Jury, in that
County He says that 'such publica-
tions illustrates his plans for appre-
hending suspected criminals" VIC
have for long time taken the same
view of the publication Of the names
of persons ag ainst whom indictments
have been found; it puts them and
their friends on their guard, and gives
them notice to make it inconyenient
for the officer to perform legal service
upon them. And then there may be
others who are equally guilty, but
whose cases have not been examined,
who, by means of the publication re-
ferred to, will not be slow in taking
hint that they, too, may be wanted,
and put themselves out of the way OF
official interference.

whatever in the terrible sea running at the
time, and the entire crew and others on the
Equinox went down with her. The schooner
arrived here this morning.
