LATEST RETURNS,

We have carried both Indiana and
West Virginia-,he former by 1000 ma
jor,ty, and the latter by 10000. These
two states were placed upon the doubt
full list by the Democrats, but claimed by
the Republicans.
Ohio, of course, went for the Republic
can party by a majority OF G,000. -Four
years ago the Republicans carried it by
majority OF $4,000. We have reduced
it onc.half. and when the final struggle
takes place next November. will wipe 1t
out entirely.
The fact is apparent that in this fight
we have broken the power of the admin
| istration and forced its leaders to the
wall. In Indiana every effort was made
to crush the spirit of liberty aud reform
with the cry Of treason, bloody shirt
and united South. In
Ohio il had its effect, but
the people of loyal Indiana fought
il back over the border with yehemcncc
aud power that cannot be mistaken.
One by one the states of the North aud
South are linking hands in an effort TO
destroy the power of u party actually
dangerous 10 the liberties OF the Hepub-
lie, and when the November battle takes
place we are certain the banner Of cell
tralization and sectional oppression will
fall before that OF equality. reform and
an inviolated constitution.
Democrats everywhere should celebrate
the great victories To the cause, anu con-
tinue to work until the final blow in
November comes.

We were warned the other day by an
agent Of Mr.. Albright's not TO avoid a
compromise, not TO write SO as TO make
a compromise unavoidable.
The compromise was all in the interest
of Albright. We proposed to use our
humble influence to attempt to clear the
Democratic fleld-providing Mr.. AL

informed that no compromise could be
effected unless Albright's name was per-
mItted 10 stand.
The Democratic party cannot fail to
See that Albright is the fountain OF all
the troubles, and that he will have no
compromise except at the sacrifice Of
the interests OF Townes, to whom he is a
pseudo friend.

already making an attempt, in the name
OF compromise, to give away Col. Bob

We did not desire 10 publicly expose
this scheme, but thought we would do

against Albright ana his little journal on

WHAT CARL SEIZURE THOIGHT

When Carl Schurz denounced the adj
mnistration -four years ago, he surely
meant it. Such language as the follow
ing could hardly be misconstrued into
anything complimentary, even ii we are
compelled 10 recognize the fact that Carl
Schurl Is supporting the figure-head OF
the administration power And thus
il is that the great name, the great au-
thority of the Republican party in its
national capacity, is being used this very
moment to uphold the most atrocious
system OF government which this country
eyer saw. a party which cannot live
and prosper unless it be supported by
corruption; party that cannot prosper
unless it be supported by revival OF the
old war feeling, and by tearing open
again the wounds from which the people
of the United States have BLEED so long
such party, when it has come to that,
does not deseye TO live
