NEW YORK.

Last week the Republicans of New
York held their State Convention
George William Curtis was there. and at
tempted to get resolution through, in.
dorsing Hayes, but it was voted down by
three to one. Senator Conkling led the
opposition, and now all the rebel policy
papers in the country are filled with
abuse Of the great Senator. The n. Y
sun, speaking OF Conkling. says:
With u sort of imperial tread he walks
straight to the very front; by virtue OF
his clearness Of conception and resolut-
will e resumes, with - common consent
his hali-abandoned leadership he speaks
Tor the Constitution and the equal rights
of all. and his voice sounds like the
lions roar. Over his future the bright
bow Of promise again shines. and il now
seems inevitable that if the Republican
party should be able te elect the next
Pre-, idrnt OF the United States, Roscoe
ConkliDg will be the mani
This reminds US that a few years ago
Mast. IN Harper's Weekly, had a picture
of Conkling. after one of his great
speeches. The picture had the body. OF
a lion, and the head and face of Conk-
ling. Now the editor Of this same Har-
per's Weekly, G. w. Curtis, is crushed

Monahan and Mathews.

The Republicans of Jackson county
have been considerably interested. in b
lniet way. about DIR. Monahan's vote for
U. s. Senator. A leading Republican
wrote to the Toledo Sunday Journal thai
ne would not vote for DR.. Monahun un
less he publicly ly'announced that he would.
under no Circumstances, vote for Mat
thews. Mr.. Persons asked DR. Monahah
last week. in the STANDARD. how he voted
in caucus for Senator last Spring, and DR..
Monahan very frankly answered.
We believe there are at least one thous-
and Republicans in Jackson county who
woull not vote Tor DR.. Monahan if they
kn-w he would vote for Matthews for
Senator. In order to set the question at
rest, we are authorized, by DR.. Monahan,
to say that he will not vote for Stanley
Matthews for U. 5. Senator, il he (Mona
ban) shall b. ,lected to the lie islsture.
This is ~ ticient to settle the question
once for all.

SOLDIERS.


John L Jones and Irvine DUNCAN,
candidates for State Senator, were both
soldiers in the Union army. So far as
we know. the record OF Mr.. DUNCAN as a
soldier, was good. We know that Mr..
Jones was good soldier, brave almost to
recklessness. As we have heretofore
-taied he went out with Capt. Churchill,
in the first company of three years men
from jackson county. His Captain was
promoted to the position of Colonel OF
the 9th Ohio-as fine q regiment as ever
laced the enemy.
Col. Churchill has volunteered to write
the following letter to Mr.. Jones:
"ZAYEsvILLE, ONO. Sept. I'D. 1877.
John L. Jones; Esq, Jackson, Ohio:
DEAR Sal have learned that you
have received the nomination of the Re-
publican party for State Senator in your
district. | congratulate you, and trust
you may be elected.
SOLDIERS who acquitted themselves
we'll in the army, as can testify you did,
are deserving of the consideration and
support of their fellow citizens.
"A gain wishing you success, | remain

We believe all the editors in Vinton
county have been indicted for libel. or
sued by parties for damages. Henry
Teeters recovered judgment against An

libel cases against him were tried, but
the juries failed to agree. in both cases.

The policy" papers have much to say
Ibout the lovely state of affairs in the
south. The following, from the Benton
County (Miss) Sun, tells a different
8 ory:
"The increase in crime has become
startling: we can scarcely pick up news
paper nowadays without being confronted
with some horrible account OF an encoun
ter in which deadly weapons have played
an important aud often fatal part The
custom OF carrying deadly weapons upon
all occasions has become almost the com
mon practice, and we have even heard OF
persons attending church. and kneeling
around the altar. with pistols in their
pockets When two persons have quar-
rel or disagreement, il seems To be " the
thing" to draw aud shoot Something
must be done to abolish this savage Gus
tom. The tax on deadly weapons should
be placed so high that few would be
willing TO own one; and carrying con
cealed weapons should he made a penal
off-nse. aud the law should be promptly
executed aud not n dead letter"

DUTY

We believe that every voter should
cast his vote with an eye single to the
glory Of Go and the good of his country
What is the duty OF Republicans in Ohio.
and especially in jackson county, on
next Tu- sday2
Jesus Christ chose twelve men to work
for his cause, and one of them was a
devil. If he could be- deceived by a
traitor. IL is no cause for dependency
that the Republican party has been simi
larly betrayed. One of the strongest
illustrations Of the frailty of human ma.
ture, i the fact that when Christ swas
betrayed into the hands of his enemies.
all his disciples forsook him and fed.
One OF the best of them did follow him
but at great distance And when nc
cu-ed of having been with him, he de
MED. lied, cursed and swore
The Republicans Of Jackson county
are intelligent. honest and true. There
may be one mere and there, up on Flint

in policy above principles; but these are
the very rare exceptions.
What is our duty2 We think it is to
vote on principle. Go to the election
next Tuesday and vote at least the

LYING.

A report has been in circulation in
Democratic papers that Judge West had.
as an attorney, broken the will Of man
in Iowa, by which the Delaware Univer-
sity had lost $4,000 bequeathed to it,
and that Judge West had married the
widow, and got the money There was
not one word of truth in this story, only
that Judge West had lost his first wife. a
Welsh woman, and had again married,
the second time to n widow lady
Judge West wrote to DR. Payne, Presi-
dent of the University. to set the matter
tight, and this is his answer:
My attention having been called to a
report alleging that Hon w. III West

have no knowledge that any attempt has
ever been made 10 change the terms OF
Mr.. Gorton's will in the slightest man

the will. together with the testimony OF
the Probate Judge, affirming that no
effort has ever been made to defeat, re.

The nam argument used by the Jack
son County Republicans TO secure the
nomination OF John l.. Jones for Sena-
tor, was that il was necessary to have
the candidate in that county. so as to
prevent Mr.. DUNCAN from carrying the
county. There are some two or three
hundred Republicans in Jackson county.
who proposed voting Cor Mr.. DUNCAN.
and the leaders of the party to prevent
this, set to work and had the most pop
plar man in their party in that county
nominated for Senator in opposition to
Mr.. DUNCAN = [Waverly watchman.
That Mr.. Jones is one OF the most de
servedly popular men in jackson county.
we admit; but that any two or three
hundred Republicans in this county
would have voted for DUNCAN, is all
imaginary. Why should they do so
foolish o thing as that2

who followed Hayes in bis caravan

1t does not appear that all this love for

lose voters, and the Republicans do not
hope to gain strength from the popular
ity Of the policy.
And again, he says:
Among the hosts OF new friends Of the

demonstrative are those who were most
bitterly opposed to his election. When
hate turns to love, il is fair TO presume
