suit in Ohio shows conclusively that
money is more potent than patriot
ism, and that a sutler is preferable
to soldier The canvas made by
General Ewing was one of the most
laborious and brilliant ever made in
the State and entities him to a high
place among the leaders ofthe Demo
cratic party. 1t will retire Senator
Thurman and General Ewing from
public service and such men can i'll
be spared from the councils of the
nation, and their defeat is repraoch
to their State. They are really en-
titled to the greatest honor and credit
for their mastery efforts against the
power and the money that defeated
them. Below we give few express
sions from the Press on the result.
THE DEAD WOOD ON GRANT.
Pittsburgh Post (Democratic.)
John Sherman and his National
banks ought to feel satisfied over the
result in Ohio. All that money
could purchase was delivered, and
the question absolutely settled is that
stay at home during the war is
of more account than General,
which is in Sherman's favor over
Grant.
WILL GET A FURLoUGH.
Pittsburgh Post Democratic.)
Charley Foster couldn't go to the
war in 1861 because of his aged par
ents Aged P. can probably furlough
him to Columbus.
TO MUCH FOR IT.
Missouri Republican (Democratic.)
Between the buzz and the boom,
the corrupting power of the Treasury
Department on the one hand and the
tapping of the bloody shirt on the 9th
er, the combination was to much for
a party which had to depend for sue
cess on an honest, intelligent ballot;
and so its candidates, though men Of
devotion to the Union, Of patriotic
record, of thorough identity with the
best interests ofthe people North and
South, go down to defeat in a good
cause.
NOT A SERIOUS BLOW. afs
Washington Post Democratic
The Republicans have merely re-
covered a State that naturally be
longs in their column. The result is
by no means an irreparable calamity
to the Democracy, and does not fore
shadow the success of the Republi-
cans in the National election of next
year. We can easily elect Demo
cratic President without the vote of
Ohio. A Republican defeat in Ohio
this fall would have meant the utter
demolition of that party.
CAN STAND 1T.
Washington Post (Democratic.)
The election Of Foster cannot de-
molish any of the main pillars of the
Republic. We have an abiding cen
viction that the Nation is sufficiently
robust to stand the shock. ri
CONTRIBUTED TO THE VICTORY.
Pittsburgh Dispatch tStalwart Republican,
1t is an undeniable fact that the
Democratic party by its unintelligent
action contributed more to the vic
tory in Ohio than any other influence
except the feeling of content with
the things that be. Turn which way
the Democratic masses would they
could see no organization, no system,
no head. Their ablest organs were
turned aside from steady and eff
fectual support Of the party by the
petty, disgusting quarrels OF lead

Ohio has not cast her electoral vote
for a Democrat for President since
1852. The fact that the Republicans
carried it Tuesday, therefore, is hardly
sufficient warrant for the conclusion to
which the Republicans seem to reckless
ly jump, that they will elect their Pres
idential candidate next year, They
carried Ohio for Hayes and they stole
the votes of three Southern States for
him, and then only counted him in
by one vote. The contest of 1880
will not be decided until 1880 is here.

No little excitement has been
aroused in this State particularly by
the publication of letter written by
w. r. Taylor, of Greenbrier county,
who pretends, in his communication
that because he is Northern man
and Republican, his property has
been destroyed by incendiaries, and
his life placed in danger. He elab-
CRATES his losses and the causes leav-
ing the ignorant to deduce that the
Greenbrier Democrats are outlaws,
cut-throats and incendaries, whose
greatest pleasure in life is to muir
der Republicans and burn their prop
erty. Taylor is of course, a rogue,
and liar, and no evidence is required
to satisfy the people of this State OF
the fact. Gov. Mathews, however,
realizing the full extent of the unjust
stigma Taylor was placing on the
good people of this State, wrote to
Attorney General Devens requesting
a copy of Taylor's letter. Devens
refused to furnish it, when its subject
matter had been furnished to all the
Republican papers of the country to
found few Southern outrages upon.
Taylor is condemned by all his
neighbors and his statements brand
ed as false by the bitterest Republi-
cans of his section.

West Virginia is between two fires
on the tramp question. Ohio and
Pennsylvania both have severe laws
to protect them against this intolera-
BILE nuisance. We have no law to
prevent tramps making this State a
harbor, temporary home, a fine OPP
portunity to impose upon the good
nature and hospitality of the average
West Virginian. Hence, we must
protect ourselves. Compel them to
move on, and give them no cncour-
agement in the shape OF food and
lodging.
AS general prosperity increases,
tramps should be made to decrease;
their cry and excuse of hard times
and no work is now dead issue
With all kinds of manufacturing, and
business looking up, skilled and COM
mon labor in demand, it is safe to
presume that majority of those who
are still on the road hunting for work
are whisky soakers, sneak thieves and
professional dead beats of long stand
ing. If a tramp comes to you now
for assistance, give him no money; he
only wants it to buy whisky. We
never saw a total abstinence man on
the tramp. If he wants square
meal make him earn it in doing
some odd job; if he is honest he will
not object, and if he does help
him along to the next house with
the toe of your boot. Tramps have
had their day, and must now go out

EFFECT ON THE GRANT "GAsP."

Plttsourgn Dlspatcn lHepuol'can.)
Nothing seems clearer than that
the origin of the Grant movement
lay in the fact that Republicans were
frightened at the prospect of defeat,
and initiated it, feeling that a fine
enthusiasm could be excited by the
use of the name of the greatest mill
tary man of the time and the really
able President of two terms. 1t is
probable that the remarkable sue
cess in Ohio will cause even enthus-
iastic friends of Grant to abandon
the position that it is necessary to
nominate any man for mere expedi-
ency.

AnIncidentofthe Epidemic.
Memphis Avalanche

In the lists of deaths from yellow
fever, last Monday, are the names of
Z. Z. Marshall and Mrs. Jane Mar
shall, his wife. The circumstances at
tending their death form one of the
most singular incidents of the epidem-
ic. They were both taken down
about the same time, and died within
a half hour of each other. During
their illness they refused admission to
the doctors and nurses sent them, and
took no medicine at all. They were
prepared for burial at the same time,
and horne to their last resting place
together. The funeral presented a
spectacle that would have touched the
most callous observer. The procession
consisted of the two hearses and an
empty carriage following. There was
not single mourner-no one to shed
tear over the Two who had loved
each other so well that death had no
terrors for them if they could lie to-
gether. Hand in hand they had trod
the pathway of a welded life, and

smauC cotton Factories.
WILMINGTON On. c. Star.

Wilmington IN. VI star.
The papers should spread all the in
formation possible concerning small
cotton factories for the South. 1t is
perfectly practicable, we have no
doubt. to establish such factories from
Maryland to the Gulf A small cot
ton factory might be located on every
creek of good size. In every county
in the state, and especially in the cot
ton section, there ought to be ten or II
dozen of these small factories at work.
They pay elsewhere-in South Caro-
lima and Georgia, for instance. Why
viii they not pay in North Carolina +?
There is a factory in South Carolina
that is a marvel in two respects it
costs but little, and it makes such a
large percentage OF profits. Let our
people make an effort. Let every
neighborhoOd or township organize for
a small cotton factory. There is no
doubt that they will pay if judiciously
managed. As we have said, they pay
elsewhere, and they can be made TO
pay in our own state. 1t would be
we'll if a practical man of business
were sent into South Carolina to ex-
anime the little mill and get all the
facts. We have the cotton, the water
power, the labor, and even the capt.
tai, for it will require so little to start
and keep running one of the mills re-
ferred to. The prosperity Of a state
depends no little upon the diversity of
crops and the multiplicity of indus
tries. New England has grown i'm
mensely rich by its manufactures.
Let North Carolina awake to its true
interests and try small cotton facto-

Alas Poor SDriCk.

The. Hon.@Ansley Grey, formerly
Of Milwaukee and Madison, and late
Of Bismarck, and of the Dakota lcgis-
laturc, is wanted in the Black Hills
as well us in Chicago. When he
was elected to the legislature he
was about broke, and had to mort
gage his per diem to reach Iankton.

he had never deposited a dollar, but

AT Omaha he took in a friend or two.
In Deadwood he settled, but his con-
yivial style Of living soon wrecked
all prospective practice at the bar,
and after cXhausting bis credit there
he drew a draft on Postmaster
Adams upon a false showing. He
drew another for $500 and got Sher-
if Manning, Of Doadwood, a fellow
democrat, to endorse. Manning was
duped by a telegram that Grey's old
partner sent from Bismarck upon
Grey telcgraphing the request, say
ing that Grcy's check for $500 would
be honored by him. Now Manning
sends instructions to prosecute crlmi-
nally to the bitter end. From Dead
