A PASSENGER tram run into a coal car
standing on switch at the west end of
the bridge on the B. d o. railroad, last
Saturday night, breaking both the coal
car and the engine considerably. The
accident occurred through the negli-
gence of one OF the employees of the COM
pany in leaving the switch open. No
persons were injured.
"DYING men grasp at straws" is being
fairly illustrated in this neck OF the
woods. The Radicals went all the way
to st. Clsirsvile with one unnatur-
allied old coon the other day, and now
he declares he will vote for Tilden,
THE person or persons who attempt
illegal voling to-day will find il warm.
Both parties are strongly organized and
the person who attempts to tamper with
the purity of the ballot box will get 10
see what the inside of our Jail Is like.
BELMONT county Is good for Tidcn
and Hendricks to-day.
The Radicals have lost all hope in
every thing else and have now brought
Moll Pitchers book of fate TO bear upon
the subject, to see if they can't figure up
Hayes election.
A TEAM of horses from the country
became frightened at yoke OF oxen in
South Bellslre, yesterday afternoon, and
ran away at two-forty rate. The wagon
was upset and the driver, lady and =
little girl, thrown into the gutter, but
fortunately they escaped with but slight
injuries. The team was caught by some
workmen who were passing, and the W.
fortunstes again helped in and started
homeward in very maddy condition,
but, no doubt, happy that they had Jared
so well under the circumstances.
MARTINS FERRY.
AT the headquarters OF the pool VEN
ders on Hanover street, Tlien has the
call with 500 to $50 on New York, 500
to $50 on the general result, and 500 to
S95 on Indiana. The bets or Wisconsin,
Pennsylvania and Illinois are even and
freely taken by the betting men that are
posted. Tilden has the choice largely in
all OF the doubtful states.
II we can only have a far, honest and
impartial election to-day, Martins Ferry
may be set down as Democratic, but this
is where the trouble lies: If every
Democrat is allowed the constitutional
right to vote that is entitled to vote,
and every Republican that is not ell
titled to vote driven ON the polls.
We know we are not exaggerating
when we say Martins Ferry precinct
will be Democratic for the first time for
over twenty years.
LET every Democrat in this precinct
be up and doing, out and at work, and
victory is ours without the shadow of a
doubt.
The last niQuitous act OF the hypo.
critics, was the hiring OF poor cUlored
woman to insult, villify and stone Mr.,
Triplett, the colorcd man who has the
manllness and hardihood to come out and
say he intends To vote Tor TIlden and
Hendricks. 1t can b, proven that the
Radicals bought crooked Republican
whisky and Infused il into her and then
paid her for doing the vIiIanOus work
that none Of them had the courage to do.
And yet this is in America and under II
republican form Of government. God
save the people
WHO was it that tried to induce the
Democrats from Wheeling, last Friday
evening. to go back home after they had
arrived at the wharf, by telling them
that the meeting was over and it was no
use for them to come over; the thing was
q fzzle? Shame! Shame!-We have
beaten you two to one IN professions
and demonstrations, and we will beat
you to-day at the polls.
L SPENCE ESQ, proprietor OF the
Ohio Valley Agricultural Works, thinks
that by the burial of strife and a restora-
tion of peace in the South, the threshing
machine business will revive and be
much better; so he will start up immedi-
ately after the election of TildeH; but
should Hayes happen to be elected, he
don't know how long be will have 70 re-
main idle
