Mr.. Bishop on the Sunday Laws.

1t is we'll known that Mr. Bishop. the
Democratic candidate for Governor, is
rigid Sabbatarisn. and it is pretty clear
from his record would. had be the power,
shut up the hill top resorts and other
places OF popular recreation on Sunday.
Whether he would 20 so far as to sus-

suppress the Sunday newspapers. and
compel the people to dine on cold pork
and pork and beans on the Sabbath day,
to save labor IN the kitchen, we do not
know, but il he followed his principle to
its logical conclusion, he could not con-
sisLently do otherwise.
In the Constitutional Convention he
came out strong on his capacity for en-
forcing the Sunday laws. 1t was during
a discussion OF the general enforcement
OF laws, which took place (see Debates OF
Ohio constitutional Convention, vol 2,
p 3045) on the 25th OF April, 1874. Mr..
Bishop said:

1t seems plain from this statement that
Mr. Bishop took pleasure in enforcing
the Sunday ordinances, and considered
il high privilege TO do so. and a great
honor to have done so successfully.
1t is also plain that il elected Governor

THE CANDIDATES.

1t is admitted by the Democrats that
the Republican State ticket is an exceed
ingly strong one. All that they can pre-
tend to bring against Judge West is, that
he is blind, and that be is a radical Re
publican, and an outspoken temperance
man.
or all the able men in Ohio, no one
could have been selected as candidate
for Governor whom we can more cordial
ly aud conscientiously support. He is
and purity Of life, be has few equals. OF
his genuine Republicanism none can
doubt. lie has been a member of both
branches of the Ohio Legislature, Attor
ney General of the State, Judge Of the
Supreme Court, and member Of the Con-
stitutioual Convention. In every official
capacity, be has acquitted himself with
honor and ability. 1t would confer great
honor upon the people. to elect such
man for Governor Of SO great a State.
Judge w. w. johnson. of Ironton. is
well known in our county. He is a man
of such ability, integrity and purity of
character. that no one. even the most
bitter partisan Democrat, speaks in any
manner OF him but with respect Judge
johnson is in every sense a true gentle
man.
We do not know any Of the other can.
didates, but we see a statement concern
ing the German who was put upon the
ticket as candidate for Lieutenant Gov
ernor, which raises him very highly in
our estimation. He was paItner in a
firm which failed in business. Instead
Of shamming his property into the hands
OF his wife, as some men do who make
loud professions, Vogeler went to work
and not only paid his individual debts,
but be paid every dollar due from the
firm OF which he was a member. Such a
man will do. The Gernans drink too
much beer to meet our approval. but
they are honest and patriotic, and this
man Vogeler appears fully to represent
the honesty OF his countrymen.
George X. Nash, OF Columbus, the can
didate for Attorney General, bears an
excellent reputation.
We have an idea that Mr.. Lukens. can
didate for Commissioner OF Common
Schools, was at one time at the head OF
the Portsmouth Schools. If this be so,
the Portsmouth, papers can tell what
manner OF man he is.
As we said at the beginning Of this ar
ticle. the ticket is a good one.

Mrs Barbara Schenck is lying in n dy-

That secures the entire copperhead vote

Another resolution indorses Republi-
canism pure and simple. That secures
the votes of the machine politicians, such
as Wade, and the editor OF the Standard.
Another resolution indorses both the suf
fering railroad corporations and the riot
ers who have destroyed their property.
Subsidies to railroads are condemned,
while it is pretty well settled that part
of the Matthews-F Foster bargain with the
rebels gives large subsidies to a railroad
in Texas.
The National and State Governments
are complimented for putting down the
strikers. when il is notorious that the
strikers defed all the Governments, and
pretended Governments, State and Ma
tional, aud kicked and cufed the sol
diers sent to put them down.
We are now sure to beat the Demo

Gratis, rebels. niggers, railroad men,
strikers and rioters pacified, why is not
victory felt in the very air2 On Monday
there were dispatches in the papers say

will give 10000 Republican majority.
