The Republican candidates for
the Legislature are trying to gain
a, few votes by reporting that Col.
Bnllen is the democrat whom they
have to beat. That is q little toe
thin very much too thin. 1t is
the plan of the Republicans to
use every meant in their power to
make a portion of the Democrats
think that the ease is hopelessly
against the nominee Of the majors
ity of the Democratic party. 1t
is a piece of campaigning that the
Republicans have been successful
at in the past, 1t is your province
to weaken the strongest candidate
of your opponents if possible
We understand your game. We
know wi at you expect to gain by
your able (?) interference in behalf
of the minority candidate of the
democrats. We don't blame you
for trying to defeat your oppo.
nents, as sail is fair in love and
war;" but we wish you to under
stand that we know what You are
up to, and shall warn our party
against your Vaccinations. The
fact is, that Mr.. Park is by far the
strongest candidate He is the
c,oice of the majority Of the
Democratic party. This is an
undeniable fact. That he will SC.
cure the vote of the majority eff
the Democratic party of the coun
ty is equally undeniable. 1t is a
desperate strait that you are driven
to, and you must whistle louder to
keep up your courage to give you
an excuse to contend against the
Democracy. Go on, and seek to
secure as many votes for yours
selves. but we will take care of
ourselves, without any help from
you or yours.

Col. JONI II. SAY GE made a
speech to day. He gave the peo-
pie something to think of. He
gave a s~carthing review of national
finance, and then took up the State
financial problem. He is we'll que'>
fled to handle the subject, and
claims that a large portion of the
bonds we're lot issued in accord
ance with the law, and therefore,
the people are not in duty bound
to pay only so far as they were
sold in compliance with the law,
The law says that no bonds shall
be issued for lees than par. He
shows that a large portion were
sold below par. He thinks that
any court of equity will declare
thos the State is only bound to pay
what 1t received with the interest
on the same. The people would
be satisfied with such a determi-
nation and a settlement upon such
a basis.

IT HAS been reported, and we
may expect to hear it often on the
eve of the election, that Mr.. Park
is off the track. We have only to
stand firm and go to the polls and
do our duty, and all will be well.
Al such reports are untrue, and
YOU can deny it, and pronounce all
such reports as false,

THE Republican majority in
Ohio is but a hollow victory. The
Democracy have a majority of
ninety on the popular vote. The
"bloody shirt and money have
been of little avail. The state
will be quite certain for the Dem>
'crats in November. The whole
country will be too much ground
for the Republicans to scatter the
funds Of their already depleted
treasury. The assessments have
been IN .de and the amount has
been expended in Ohio and Indi
ana, to secure fraudulent and i'm.
ported voters. You have been
beaten on high ground ana low
ground, from the lakes to the
banks of the river on the South.
The requiem is that you arc lost,
weighed in the balance Of public
Justice and found wanting.

SINCE their Waterloo defeat in
Indiana, the Republican leaders
have seriously contemplated and
discussed the necessity Of withr
drawing Hayes and substituting
Grant, who will be instructed to
carry the elections at the point of
tho bayonet. Such is the desper>
alton which pervadss the crew of
the sinking ship. And it clears
so heavily on the old mans mind"
that utter defeat, and rout of foot
and horse, if something is NOS
tone.

FROM what we have heard some
of the candidates for the L eisla'
turc before the primary election,
and again before the convention,
will not support the candidate
nominated by the Democratic
party in convention, This is all
wrong. All could not receive the
nomination, and they are in duty,
as well as by custom, bound 10
support the candidate of the con-
yention. BY going into 1t you are
bound to sustain the result,
whether in accordance with your
wishes or not. What hope have
we of uniting the power of the
party !? What necessity Of united
aotion to seour the fed clear for

DURING the canvass for the
primary election, very little was
done concerning the legitimate
canvass for the campaign. The
majority of the candidates would
not submit their claims to it, and
il was considered as no. being a
fair test of the strength Of the
various candidates for the Legisla-
turs. A convention was then
Called by the county committee to
settle the matt r. At first Park
was not satisfied about al!o wing
his name to. 90 before that body.
But, being assured that it would
be the final action of the Demo-
cratic party, he authorized Mr..
Robert Dobson to have his name
brought forward. His name was
placed b. fore the convention by
Mr.. Henry; with what result Is
generally known. No one could
BE- expected to do more. He re
ceived the nomination from the
primary election +; was again nom
mated by the convention and now
asks the Democrats to sustain his
claims. 1t ia no more than could
be expected, and 20 more than the
party is in duty bodnd to do. We
ask that the organization of party
be completed and all obstacles re.
moved.

REMEMBER that 4 vote for the
Republicans is vote to continue
the present depression of business.
TO continue the party IN power
which has driven the hundreds and
thousands of working men out Of
employment, aud bringing starva~
tion to your doors, is but another
name for Grantism.

THE New Bra would have the
people think that Judge Randolph
is a powerful man and is gaining
strength (any one might be lead
to suspect that they meant intel
lectual) every day. We we're I'M
clined to think that he was rather
weak for a giant. 1t only shows
how little the Republicans are
willing to expect, and how little
they are thankful to receive.

john ALLISON, jr., our able
nominee for Senate, has, so far,
made a vigorous canvass of the
District, and reports that he has
found no disafTection in the ranks

independent enough to condemn
and critieise what is wrong in the

best to support the ticket put in

do not wish to make any war

IT HAS been asserted that some
of the friends Of Mr.. Park would
not support Mr.. Hugh D.. Maloney
~"because, 8 they alleged, he had
been a rebel,' We were present
in the convention and heard NO
such declaration. IL is curious
that meme but the friends Of Col,
Bullen, who we're opposed to MIR.
Park in the convention, should
have heard srch a thing. We are
satisfied that it is belng circulated
to produce the impression that
there is a division in the Demo
cratic ranks on that subject. We
have voted together and sustained
our candidates, without any
reference to war issues. We sus>
tanned Col. Bullen two years ago.
We elected him. We are willing
to vote for him again if he will
come into the Democratic fold
without reserve and submit his
claims to the party as other DEM
Gratis do, and not without he d es.
The supremacy of our principles
and our party a:e far above any
personal aspirations and ambition.

LET the Democracy sustain
their action in the convention, II
IS no time to stand and bubble
over minor differences. The quee>
ton is, are we going to allow the
personal differences between candi-
dates to defeat the preat prlncl<
Piles of our party? Are we going
to suffer our principles to be trail
ed in the dust and be defeated BY
the minority because of the differ
eDcc of opinions of our friends I
We must not do it. We must sus>
tain the action Of our party, even
if we think 1t might have be n
bettered. If we do so we will b.
successful. If not, We may suffer
defeat. We call upon all Demo
Gratis to lay aside all feelings of a
personal character, and sustain tht
convention Of our party, and W.
can beat the represent tives Of the
Republican party by over iv
hundred majority. The candidat'
of the convention will receive n
large majority of the Democratic
votes Of the county. We are
certain, if the convention is sus-
tanned, that Mr.. Park can carry
the vote Of Col. Bullen, and bear
Major Henry and DR.. Jerolds by
at least three hundred majority.

An Authors AnnOyances.

THE poet Longfellow, although natural
ly of most amiable disposition, especial
ly under the assaults made upon his time
and his. privacy by simple curiosity and
literary Lion hunters who have no possible
claim upon him, would be little short Of a
saint if he were not sometimes annoyed
by the pertinacity of uninvited guests
Take for illustration two instances:
Three ladies, two from Chicago and one
from Milwaukee, entirely unknown to the
poet, send in their cards. They are cour-
teously received by him in reception
room. Would he be good enough to let
them see his library? The request is ac-
guessed in and the library undergoes in
spection.
''Oh, it's lovely" $50 NICE" and now
''mayn't we see the dining-room?"
The cloth for dinner was laid and the
hour for that meal close at hand, but new
ertheless the ladies carried their point
but, when it came to wishing to be shown
the kitchen, the host was fain to ring for
a servant lest further examin alton might
extend to cellar or attic.
Another amusing instance, also related
to us by a friend, was that of an English
man who, like Sir Charles Coldstream,
had 9 travelled everywhere, seen every
thing, and done everything" and yet was
terribly eunuied.
" Haw! yes, Mr.. Longfellow, thought /
ought to see the great American poet, n
| sent in ma card"
The poet asked the visitor to be seated,
when he resumed:
Yes, see Mr.. Longfellow: I've been
! great traveller, sir; been all over the Con.
tinent, been to Iceland, Sweden, Nor
way"
Indeed, you must have found much
to interest YOU"
Well, something, but it's getting to b
an awful bwar. I've just come froI
Egypt old country-antiquities, yol
know
Yes" replied the poet; "many inter
esting remains of past ages"
"Ah, yes-just so, exactly; heaps O.
old ruins. | like ruins. Now, every.
things new here in America, you know
can't find any old ruins-so thought To
come an see you. "-Boston Commercial
! Bulletin
