they are: "Thc Republican party,

by an empire. The Democratic par.

the powers delegated to the Federal

purposes we are republic Of sover-

Politically, all eyes are turned to-
ward the Buckeye State this year,
and for an "off year," no State cam
paign has excited more general in.
tercst throughout the nation. With
the presidential election so near at
hand, the future, if not of parties at
least ofsome very prominent iGdivid-
uals is understood to depend very
much upon the result Of this contest,
and those of their political associates
far aud near, who are not able to
directly aid them, anxiously await
the outcome. With the Republicans
the situation is desperate-a regular
ground hog case; for should they lose
Ohio this fall there would not be a
shadow Of hope for them in the con-
test for the presidency next year;
while to the Democrats, success there
would be all clear gain. Ohio is not
put down as necessary to the Demo.

tial calculations on that side, while
no Republican estimate figures out
enough electoral votes without Ohio's
twenty two. Yet it is admitted that
if Ewing is elected this fall the
Democrats willpretIy certainly carry
the State next year. Since the war
Ohio has been a reliable Republican
State, with one or two off year excep.
tions, and the admission that it is
doubtful in u contest so important
as the present is significant of the
real situation-the degeneracy of the

with the Sentinel. We will grant the
gentlemanly darkies the boon they
crave, that they may study African
ethnology from a stalwart standpoint
"What we need is encouragement, not
curses; protection, not Violence
That is niger all over. Why, you
great wooly-headed boobies, what you
need is to learn to curse and prac-
tice violence, and all these other
things will be added to you. If you
have not sand enough to stand up
and curse these lantern-jawed briga-
diers and their white-livered retain
ers, then the Republican party made
a great mistake in giving you your
freedom If these unhung traitors
dare modest you when You go to vote,
shoot them as you would so many
dogs. If you have not the courage
to do SO, get on the auction block and
let them sell you to the highest bid

A great deal is being said just
now, says the Cincinnati Enquirer,
by Republican stumpers of a change
in the times for the better; that, hav-
ing touched bottom, business is tend
ing upward, We hope that this is
true. We want to see better times.
And, not being able to get lower,
having reached bottom, we do not
see any other direction for business
to take, if it.change at all, except to
go up. If what is said is true, the
panic of 1878, has worn itself out,
after having ruined tens of thous-
ands of honest merchants, driven
money capital from business and
industrial enterprises into Govern
ment bonds, shrunk the values of
property nearly one-half, brought
ruin and misery to homes, and
women and children without number,
starved labor, forced riots and insti,
tuted the tramp. 1t lies now ex
hausted on hard-pan, too feeble for
further mischief. Suwarrow, after
having butchered forty thousand
Poles, men, women and children,
sent word to his Imperial mistress,
Catharine, that "Order reigned in
Warsaw" SO the panic, the ofIal
of vicious financial policy, having
slain its thousands and tens of thous-
ands at the command of the Money
Power, the Secretary of the Treasury
announces that confidence is again
restored, and that business is reviv-
ing. The country is to be cougratu,
lated that, after all the sad experen-
ces it has gone through, on account
oftho,criminal financial blundcringof

it can begin to see the daylight Of
prosperity.

resorted to for continuation Of sta.wart
