Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1877-10-11
OHIO ETC.

The Buckeyes have had their election. The
Hayesltes, anticipating defeat, have been as
surfing the people that the result, whatever it
might be, would have no political significance
If the preachings and practices of Rutherford
the Good are right the result surely would
not have any political significance He and
his satellites and supporters have drawn the
difference between parties with such micro
scopical fneness that they may not be de-
tected with the naked eye. If Hayes and
Matthews Evarts and Schurz, George Viii
liam Curtis and Newton Booth are right there
is no issue between the Republicans and the
Democracy worth quarreling about. The ten
dency of Liberal Republicanism according to
the gospel of st. Matthews is to turn over the
government to party made up of rebels and
Dolly Vardens to the exclusion of both the
Democratic and Republican parties. This is
simply political confidence game 1t was
born of its own necessities in Wormley's Res
taurant. The returns say that the Western
Reserve (Ohio's Republican stronghold, shows
a very decided gain of Democratic votes. Up
there they think more of their Republicanism
than they do of President who has surren-
dered himself and tried to surrender his party
into the hands of the Independents, In our
imperfect judgment there is a good deal of
significance in the Ohio election. We think
that it means that Mr.. Hayes could not have
carried his own State when he ran for the
Presidency, if he had had the frankness to
let it be known in advance that he was going
to made his bed with the carping critics and
malignant Performers who had been trying
for so many years to smash the Republican
party to atoms We think it means that
Hayesism must be repudiated and fought
down by the Republican party if that party
is to live, On the first Friday after the first
Monday in November there will be an cleo |
ton in Pennsylvania and another in Massa-
chusetts. The Presidents extraordinary pol
icy is on trial in each of those States. In the |
old Bay State the Harvard Alumni and ''the |
Brahmins" had it all their own way in Con-
yention Hayes was lauded to the skies. |
This is not to be wondered at. Massachusetts
produced Charles Sumner, the most selfish of
men. When he died they imported Carl
Schurz to Boston to pronounce his eulogy,
1t was to be expected that the self-consti-
tuted leaders of society in such State would
support Hayes. The Republican candidate
for Governor there is Alexander H. Rice-a
figure head of Beacon street departments
'Brahmin''. We suspect he will be defeated
At all events he ought to be. His Hayesism
ought to kill him. In Pennsylvania, in
Jersey, the opposing forces compromised.
They handle Hayes with pair of tongs, at
arms length On the same day New York
will hold its election. Save as the Curtis fac
ton run their little boiling mill, there will be
a straight fight between the Republicans and ,
the Democracy. There will be no Hayesism
in the main fght-save as the Democracy en- $
dorse him as an accommodating and superser $

Y ork Republicans 1t cares great deal more |
for the Republican Party, North and South, a
han it does for Mr.. Hayes, in or out of the 6
Presidency. And so will say any honest t
minded, earnest Republican, here and every f
where. Hayes's policy says in effect that the O
mission of the Republican party is ended. f.
We deny it. And here's the issue between
and Hayesism. q
