Fourteen Months for the
Price of One Year. .ss

From now until November, 1880, will be
one of the most exciting periods in the
political history Of this Republic. On the
| 14th day of next month. the people of
Ohio will electa Governor and other State
officers. Heretofore parties have been
very evenly divided there, which, together
with the important influence which the re-
suit is to have upon the great Presidential
contest of next year, gives the contest a
national interest, and its decision will be
regarded with deep concern in every nook
and corner of the Union Two strong
tickets are in the field, and the battle is be-
ing waged with vigor which shows that
each party fully appreciates the prize for
which they are striving. ,--e 81
In November, the great State of New
| York will elect q Governor, State
officers and a Legislature. This
J too is a contest of the highest National i'm
portance. The Democrats for several
years have been in the ascendancy there,
but they are now disturbed by internal
discussions, which, together with the dis
advantage at which they are placed by
being held responsible for the policy inau-
| gurated by their leaders in Congress, gives
the Republicans great encouragement.
This, together with thorough conviction
of the righteousness of their cause, in
spires them with courage and confidence,
and they are determined to &C ntest every
every inch of the ground with that resolute
purpose which animates true and tried
soldiers fighting for the dearest and most
cherished principles. The result in that
State will be looked to all over the Nation
with an interest never before felt in State
election. The giants of both political par
ties. all over the Nation, will take part in
the contest and the issues involved will
be ably and thoroughly discussed.
Elections will also be held in November,
in Iowa, Wisconsin, Nebraska, MINI esota,
Massachusetts and Pennsylvania. In each
of these States the two great political par
ties will put forth their best efforts, and re-
suits will be looked to with extraordinary
interest. f..... -s .e..e Be-
, On the first Monday in December Con-
gress meets again, and the session promises
to be one of extraordinary interest, The
leaders will contend with each other for
the vantage ground upon which to make
the great political fight of next year, when
President is to be elected and new Con-
eress to be chosen. Every man who feels
, any interest in politics will desire to watch
every step of the preliminary struggle.
= Already an intense interest is manifested
in the Presidential struggle of 1880 Both
parties are on the alert, wide awake
] to take advantage of whatever
l the leaders may imagine to be con-
!. dueive to their party soccess. Early next
summer the National Conventions will be
7 held, and full tickets placed in the field,
, when the work of the canvass will begin
i with q vigor never surpassed in any SINH
lar contest in the history of Presidential
elections Never before has greater in
2 terest been felt in the result of national
| election, so far in advance of the time at
a which it is to be held, than now exists.
In addition to the national issues,
around which will centre so much of pub
lie interest, in Tennessee we will have q
State election next fall. Without any
sort of exaggeration, this will be the most
important of any ever held in the State.
= The Reputation wing, which is majority
: of the Democratic party, is marshalllng Its
D. hosts for a final charge against the credit,
q honor, integrity and good name OF the
= Volunteer State. If they succeed, we are

!, place in the field full ticket for Governor
j and members of the Legislature, com
: posed of men committed to the policy Of
| repudiating large proportion of the State
r debt. They will be met By the State
: credit men, and desperate effort will be
i. made to rescue Tennessee from the eontro
: of those who would bring upon her ever
q lasting ruin and irretrievable disgrace. Nc
