FROM all we can learn, HAYES Is an
amiable, plastic man, deficient in ex-
ecutive ability, who has had greatness
thrust upon him. In 1875, before
HAYES was talked of for President, the
Boston Advertiser, which is an orthodox
Republican journal, drew careful por-
traiture of him. 1t said:
ale was Governor two terms, and
there never was any danger that he
would institute any reforms to hurt. He
is a man of iair ability, good-nstured, cor
rect in his personal habits, honest, and
sound in the Republican faith, but with
out much force or independence"

The New York Ur"aid Is losing ITS
confidence in the election of HAYES. 1t
now warns tue Republican party that the
bloody shirt question will lose HAYES
thousands of votes; that the thoughtful
and intelligent voters don't believe
in it, and that the great and
important measures of sound money and
reform of the civil service, to the disap-
pointment of the people, are completely
ignored. To sum up, the policy now
pursued by the Republican leaders, and
the aspect OF the canvass, the Herald be-
i;ev.s means inevitable defeat.

In reading Judge BRANNoN's sentence
OF RICHARD DowELL, MS printed in the
REGISTER the other day, two or three
serious errors escaped the eye of the
proof reader. The judge pronounclng
"Gnar Judgment enormously reads
"irsil' judgment. The jury declined"
land not "decared") to exercise their
discretion; while it was with-sad feelings
and painful "emotions" instead of "mo-
tlons" simply that the Judge pronounced
the sentence. OF course, the errors are
OF such nature MS to be readily OBJ
served by the reader, yet they are an
noylng and mar the beauty OF the lam
gusge employed.

THERE would be no place either for
party favoritism or personal fsvoritism in
appointments requiring the concurrence
of a Democratic President and Repub'

would be pretty good security against
bad appointments and against removals

Republicans, Are You
Ready?

Only few days more remain be-
fore the election, and if our friends
in any township have not made all
their arrangements to secure full
Republican vote next Tuesday, we
urge them to attend to the matter
without a moments delay.
See to it, that conveyances are
provided to bring infrm and aged
voters to the polls; that a correct
list of all the Republican voters in
the township be placed in the hands
of some active, reliable Republican,
who will check off the name of each
voter after he has voted, and have
men appointed to send for every
Republican who has not voted, say
by 2 o'clock p NJ, and if possible
bring him to the polls. Appoint
good challenging committees, to pre-
vent illegal voting. In short, use all
honorable means to bring out the
entire Republican cote Of yoor toace-
ship, and do not rest satisfied until
this result is accomplished. Do this,
and you will have the satisfaction of
having done your whole duty and
contributed all in your power to the
great Republican victory which we
are confident awaits us in Ohio next
Tuesday.

The Hard Times on Labor.


"Do you know where I could get
a harvest hand 2" "Yes do you see
that man across the road holding
the awning post in front of that sa-
loon? Well, go for him; he wants
work" They met and commenced
negotiation "What do you pay for
harvest hands? 2" Il pay from S1.5O
to $3.50. 1t depends all on the
man." "Well, sir, I guess am your
man; I want work, but whether I
work or not depends on the wages"

TWhOle No. 21O6.

measurements and their correctness
was doubted.
When the Commissioners of Ross
and Highland counties met at Green
field to accept the work on the abut-
ments of the bridge over Paint
creek, this gentleman happened to
be in that village and was employed
by three Democratic Commissioners
from Ross and tooO Democratic and
one Republican Commissioner from
Highland to re-measure the work af-
ter Mr.. Dickey and he found the
measurement incorrect: Mr.. Albert,
of Chillicothe, was the most earnest
in his desire for re-measurement,
and in his distrust of Mr.. Dickey's
accuracy.
The people of this county, who
have paid enormous prices for
wretched roads, can charge the same
to Mr.. Dickey' cherished habits, not
to his intentional dishonesty.
We have tried to write of MIR.
Diekey kindly, but faithfully and
with feeling of sadness over his
infrmity, but he has counted too
much upon the forbearance and sup
posed devotion to party of the people
of the Seventh District and in doing
so has made the question of his cleo
ton not one of party, but one of good
citizenship, as opposed to prejudice
and political chicanery. To add to
his mistake, he has placed himself in
the hands of men notorious for their
unscrupulous conduct and who are
fragrant violators of public morals,
private decency and even of the laws
of the land. 1t remains to be seen
whether the good sense and common
business sagacity of the District can
overcome the efforts of those who
seem determined to push their selfish
schemes by means of party prejudice
and appeals to the baser passions of
our nature, to the hazardous extent
of placing in the councils of the ma
ton man who has shown no ability
and no desire for self-control, and
who, if we can credit charges boldly
made and seemingly proven, and
met with only weak and evasive de-
nials-has not been able to restrain
his appetites for brief season, in
spite of solemn promises to friends,
and when in sight of the goal of his
life's ambition.

Don't Trade Votes.

The Democratic managers have ad
vised their party throughout the
State, to trade off any other candi-
date on their ticket, for a vote for
Bell, their candidate for Sc cretary OF
State. The object of this is to carry
Ohio for Bell, and then claim that
the State is fer Tilden! In some
counties, it is said, the Democrats
are actually offering to vote for any
three Republicans, in exchange for
one Republican vote for Bell

DR.. Nipgen, of Chillicothe, has re-
signed his position as Chairman of
the Democratic Central Committee
of Ross county. This is only one of
the many bad results of the attempt
of L. T. Neal to secure the nomina-
ton for Congress for a third term.
1t is a great pity that Neal pursued
the course he did in regard to this
matter. He not only ruined himself,
politically, but he crippled some of
his best friends and created vast
amount of discord in every county
in the District [Waverly Watch
man.
Well, now, we thought all this
trouble was because Uric Sloane had
usurped the right of delegates to
vote their own minds, and had cast
their votes, against their protest, for
Henry L. Dickey; so that they sat
upon their seats in the convention
and saw and heard their own votes
recorded, and a man declared their
nominee, through their votes, whom
they thought unworthy of the place.
1t appears by the Watchman that we
we're mistaken. This "vast amount
of discord in every county in the
district" was not caused by Sloane
robbing these men of their votes and
declaring a man nominated who was
not nominated. That was all nice,
and pretty, and fair, and regular.
Meals friends caused all the discord.
They shouldn't have had the impu,
dence to say they preferred him to
any man whose name was presented
to the convention. We see it now
that view of the case accords with
Sloane's decisions and his general
treatment of the Neal men in the
convention [Scioto Gazette.

James W. Lee, soldier in the
Confederate army, writes from Aber-
deem Miss, as follows, in answer to
an imitation to attend meeting of
Union soldiers: "There is this mis-
take. During the late unfortunate
war I was on the Confederate side of
the question. But there is another
matter, about. which there is no mis-
take; I am supporter, in this ma
tional contest of Hayes and Wheeler.
I ceased to be a Confederate eleven
years ago, and have tried to be loyal
to my country's flag ever since Since
1868 have been an active worker
in Republican ranks in Mississippi,
where it costs a man something to
be Republican"

The most comical proposition, SO
far, is that of the ''Sage of Fruit
Hill" This gifted old man holds
that the adoption of Tilden's views
on the currency question would re-
suit in utter and irretrievable ruin to
every workingman and every bust

den, on the other hand, reviles the
views of the sage of Fruit Hill as

The Centennial.

The editor and his son returned
from their visit to the Centennial Ex-
hibition on Thursday evening last.
At present we have only time and
space to say, that our expectations
of the grandeur, extent and be auty
of the great Worlds Fair were more
than realized. No description can do
it iustice-it must be seen to be fully
appreciated. The attendance during
the week we were there from the 18th
to the 23dIof September, ranged from
$4,000 to over.12s,O00 per day, the
highest number being on the 21st,
''New York day." On Thursday last,
pennsylvania day." nearly 100000
were in attendance!
We advise sll who can go, by all
means not to miss the opportunity of
seeing this magnificent collection of
the products Of Nature, Science and
Art-the largest and grandest, be
yond all comparison, which will be
witnessed in our country for perhaps
a generation to come.

A HaSty Conclusion.

The Manchester Gazette of last Saturday publish
es a letter from Dr. VIM. II. Wilson, of Greenfield,
in which he endorses Mr.. Dickey, and says he sal
ways found him that same SOBER, courteous gen.
tleman." On the strength of this letter. the editor
takes back all he has heretofore said about Mr.
Dickey's intemperance. We fear he has jumped at
conclusion too hastily. Mr.. Wilson may see fit
for reasons of his own, to vouch for Mr.. Dickeys
soBRIETY, but the great majority of Mr.. Dickey's
fellow-townsmen of Greenfield well KNOW and do
not hesitate to say, that he has NOT maintained a
character for sobriety, but the very This
is the TRUTH, let who will say to the contrary.
We refer the editor of the Manchester Gazette to
the communication in our columns this week, in
regard TO Mr.. Dickey's incorporate habits, which
is from the pen of reliable citizen of this place,
~ho KNOWS whereof he writes, and whose word
will be taken wherever he is known.

Confidence among the leading
merchants and other business men
of the country would seem to be
universal that the general revival of
business which began some weeks
ago, and which has continued to
gain strength, will prove of per-
manent character, and that we are
now on a sounder basis than at any
time since the panic. Indications
on every hand are that the bottom
has been touched, and doubt and
distrust are rapidly giving place to a
feeling of confidence.

The claim that Tllden has reduced
the taxes in this State from SIG, ,OOO,-
600 to S6,000,000 is one of false pre-
lenses for which he himselfis respon-
sibIe and which exhibits the impu
dence with which he urges his own
candidacy. The Governor does not
adjust the tax levy. That work is
committed by the Constitution to the
Legislature, and that body last win
ter was Republican. Its scrutiny and
economy Governor Tilden claims for
himself, while he had no part or par

We submit the question to the respectable por-
tion of the Democratic party, whether they ap-
prove the style of vulgar personal abuse and de-
famation recently INDUCED in towards respectable
citizens, by their party organ, the Hisboro
Gazette? For instance, are they not ashamed of
some of the dirty "Police Gazette" paragraphs in
last weeks issue? The late editor of the Gazette
had too much respect for propriety and decency
to allow his columns to be prostituted to such vile
uses, and his successor would do well to initiate
his example in that respect, if he desires the good
opinion of decent people.
