The German vote is thus bespokcn
by the Cleveland Plain Dealer:-
There is rot much chance for doubt
as to how the Germans of the country
stand. They are for reform and hon.
esty not only in the abstract, but as
pTacucall exemplifed in Presidential
candidate. They don't want a man
who is merely good because he ism,
bad. They want man who has had
some active identification with reform
work; and it is pretty evident that i
such man enters the field it makes
no difference to them what his party
Co!ors are. In short, Germans have
cut loose from clap-trap and humbug,
and are terribly in earnest this year
AS to Hayes, they have dropped him
out Of their attention.

THE GREAT EXHIBITION.

The great American attraction over the
world, is undoubtedly the Grand Cen
tennial Exhibition at Philadelphia,
Taking the Monday 10 1-2 p. No., train
brings one to Pittsburgh at two O'Clock in
the morning, and good bed at the Cen
tral gives good chance for few hours
sleep and prepares him for the fast train
that goes East over that grand railway,
the Pennsylvania Central, which leaves
Pittsburgh, at s l-2 a. M, and gets to this
city, Philadelphia, at p. M, making but
two stops, one at Altoona, and one at
Harrisburgh.
Of course we write this before having
had time to visit the Grand Exhibition,
a display that every American citizen
should see, ifpossible. The world is
here on exhibition and may be seen
without travelling round the world.
"The "Union" is capital stopping
place for Cantonians, as one finds here
familiar faces" Mr. John NJ. Faber be-
ing prominent representative of "mine
host" Col, Thomas S. Webb, Mr.. ]
Murray Webb, being superintendent of
this House. Miss Josephine Kimball
too, is the lady who receives with proper
ease and afability the guests of the Gun
ion" We met Mr.. & Mrs. Faber Laird,
and Mr.. & Mrs. Aver of our Water Works
wheel house, all of whom arrived on
Monday.
We by no means expect to write up
he Great Exhibition of the world in the
columns Of the STARK Co., DEMOCRAT. |
Dur limited space ids,the.thought if |
he labor and extent of the job would
lot. We say.to our friends who may Wis.,
t this "big thing" to obtain quarters
where they will meet friends who may
De ofserviCe to them.
Let every one going over the Pennsyl-
yania railway for the first time take the
morning train east from Pittsburgh so
hat he may pass over and through the
in daylight The stupendous
md magnificent sights he will never
orget.

INDIANAPOLIS, August 22.-The Senti-
mel of to-day publishes the following let
ter, written to Gov. Hayes by Gen. Kill
patrick, and discovered by accident 1t
was evidentlya copy of the letter sent
and was meant to be preserved, but was
dropped. The handwriting is an exact
fac simile of Gen. Kilpatrick's signature
on the hotel register. The majority of
counties visited by Gen. Fitzpatrick have
previously been strongly Republican and
have less Independent strength than 9TH
er counties in the State:
GRAND HOTEL INDIANAPOLIS.
August 81, 1876. !
DEAR SIR: / have just finished the
tour of six counties in Indiana, and feel
ing that any reliable information from
this State will interest you, | write. In
the first place the canvass is well conduc-
ed, the people are enthusiastic and deter
mined and the old war spirit thoroughly
aroused, and if it were not for one thing
we could rest certain of victory in 0cto-
Der. There is an Independent party in
this State, confined, it is true, to a few
counties, but formidable, and it will de-
feat Gen. Harrison. There is but one
way to overcome this movement. The
leaders of the Independents are poor
needy and in debt. They must be lee
tured to, and documents must be placed
in their hands, that they may be con-
vinced Of their folly. A bloody shirt
campaign, with money, and Indiana is
safe. A financial campaign, and no
money, and we are beaten. The Nation
al Committee has done nothing for Indi-
ana. Alone they are fighting their battle,
and bravely, but unless the National
Committee wakes up and does its duty to
you, to the party and the country, defeat
is certain in October / never in my life
felt so certain that l was doing my duty
as in this contest, and my desire for sue
cess, my dear sir, is my only excuse for
writing to you. Your friend,
j. KILPATRICK-
To R. B. Hayes, Governor, &c,
