The Steubenville Gazette, few days
before the st. Louis convention. com
menced an editorial thus:
We realize that the Republicans have
placed in nomination ticket that will
be very difficult to defeat in case prop
er man upon a straight forward platform
is not put forward by the Democrats.
The action Of Friday means the defeat Of
Tilden, Bayard or any other Democratic
candidate who is identified with the Ma
tional bank cause, for the only chance
for Democratic success is in the assertion
Of true Democratic principles Of which
the gentlemen above mentioned would
be no better exponents than Seymour
was in 1865 or Greeley in 1872.
The Chillicothe Advertiser copies the
article and says:
The case could not be more plainly or
candidly put Hayes is too strong man
for any money king or representative ol
bondholders, bankers or grasping mo.
nopolies to defeat The times demand a
man Of the people; one who has the peo

MY CENTENNIAL SERMON.

Many years ago man wrote to the
New York Tribune, asking it to call on
every man in the United States. to send
him one cent. Everybody could and
would do that, and never miss it, and
the recipient would thus receive great
fortune, and no one would miss it, The
idea was brilliant one, but so many
neglected to respond, that the man is
still poor.
If each one of my subscribers would
send me that which he justly owes me,
could pay every dollar 1 owe, and have
com Portable balance in bank. But
some will neglect this If all who owe
me would send me fifty cents, 1T would
make large sum. Many will do this.
Some publishers threaten to publish

harm, and in some cases be unjust

When you see this, look at your label.
If you are in arrears, send the money, if

ANOTHER RATIFICATION.

On Thursday night the Court House
bell was rung, and bonfire was kindled
in front Of the Isham House II was
given out that Senator /. T. was going to
ratify. A crowd soon collected, and the
boys began to shout for l. T., when that
gentleman stepped out and mounted an
armchair and made speech. He said
he was surprised that a few Democrats in
Jackson should oppose Tilden. They
thought because they run jackson coun-
ty, that they could run the United States.
Four years ago they went off after Hor-
ace Greeley. the most ultra Republican
in the United States. Now the conven-
ton had made sound platform, and
nominated sound and able Democrat.
and yet these men are not satisfied. He
believed Tilden might be elected, but it
would be no easy matter. 1t would not
do to say that Hayes IS a weak candi-
date. Hayes is an honest, pure man,
and he is a man Of much ability and if
it were not that he must carry the load
of Grants corrupt administration, there
could be no doubt of his election.
After the Senator had subsidized, calls
were made for other speakers, but none
responded, although several Democratic
orators were present. The little boys
had gay time. They gave three cheers
for nearly every man they could recog-
nize in the crowd. They cheered Hayes
and Wheeler. and then gave three hearty
cheers for themselves.

ST. LOUIS CONVENTION

The Democratic National Convention
last week nominated Tilden on the sec.
ballot and nominated Hendricks of In
diana for Vice President, but he has not
yet accepted The Ohio delegation voted
for Old Bill Allen, and were Kissed and
derided. 1t is said that this delegation
had no more influence than so many

disgraceful affair, Sam Cox having to be
arrested by the Sergeant-at-Arms. Dele

FRAUD AND CORRUPTION

Senator Monahan, in his speech on
Thursday night, had considerable to say
about fraud, corruption, dishonesty, etc,
in the Republican party. 1t struck us
that if what he and Judge DuHadway
said to each other on the previous even
ing was half true, the Democratic party
right in Jackson, should never mention
dishonesty. Here were two men who
have been promoted by the Democratic
party to high, honorable and responsible
positions, who, if they tell the truth
about each other, are dishonest rascals.
Yet these same leaders are shocked at
dishonesty in the Republican party Do
Democrats claim monopoly of dishon-
esty and rascality2 1t would seem so,
from the Senator's remarks on the two
evenings, taken together.

about corruption and reform is a misera-

Now this party of honesty and reform
has nominated for President Samuel J.
Tilden, of New York; an old chum OF
Tweed, the most mighty thief of the
nineteenth century.
To establish the character Of the re-
form candidate of this party of professed
honesty let facts be presented to a can
did world, selected from leading Demo
cratic papers.
The Steubenville Gazette says:
There is one such a man, and his name
is William Allen. He is a man of the
people, while Samuel Tilden is not. lie
is in sympathy with the great cause Of
currency reform, the one great reform
demanded of the hour, and Samuel j.
Tilden is not. His is the record Of an
honest man throughout, while stains
have been discovered by his own political
friends, upon the record of the great
canal relormer" Allen was never con-
nect,,d with the swindling Tammany De
mocracy, but the famous Eastern re
form" candidate was hand in glove"
with Tweed for years. Aliens reform"
is real thing; Tilden's is a damned
barren ideality." Allen is Democrat
Tilden is not. Allen can carry Ohio; Til
den cannot. Allen can carry New York;
Tilden cannot. Allen would be elected
while with Tilden as a candidate the
Democrats would be defeated more dis
astrously than they were with Greeley.
IL the Argus is really working for Dem
ocratic victory it should throw aside its
false god and set up Democracy as a tit
ting object of devotion instead of wasting
itself away singing pRans of praise to an
idol which can never lead it to victory,
