HAS DECLARED FOR RICE AND
EWING.

The Chillicothc National Express,
one of the very ablest and Brightest
Greenback papers in the United
States, has espoused the of
Ewing and Rice. In its issue of
July 18th, it says:
sit will advocate the election of
Gen. Ewing and Gen. Rice, for Gov
ernor and Lieutenant Governor, as
perfectly consistent with its own dis
tinct and independent organization.
1t is true that these gentlemen are
the nominees of the Democratic par
ty in Ohio, but it is equally true
that they stand recognized through
out the whole country, and in Eu-
rope, as trne and genuine leaders of
the very doctrines for which the Ma
tional party has contended eversince
its organization. If it is the success
of a cause, the ENGRAVING of nation
al ideas into laws, and not partisan
success, that the National party
seeks, then those composingthe par
ty will readily see, that the only
hope lies in the support of these can
didates. In their election, the Ma
tional party will have achieved a.
triumph over which it may we'll re-
Ijoice, for it will be the triumph of
its most cherished doctrines.
The National Cypress will repudi-
ate and denounce the communistic
platform made at Columbus, Ohio,
June 4th, 1879. Very many good
and able men Of the party were of
that Convention, and some of them
were nominated as candidates; but
they were deceived and decoyed
into the trap set for them by a few
designing men, under the leadership
of Pomeroy, whose principle aim
seems to be to aid the Republican
party in carrying Ohio over to the
policy of John Sherman.
This paper cannot, with compla-
cency and self respect, stand by and
witness, without protest, the consum-
nation of this deep laid scheme and
grand public swindle."

Can it be possible that our Repub-

The big wheat crop may help out
some poor farmer within the grasp

Republican contraction is what re-
duced the wages of the laboring men
and stopped the industry of hun
dreds of mechanics, and the big
wheat crop will not remedy it either.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1879-07-24

If the big wheat crop in Ohio will
revive the stagnation of business

Republican stumpers in every polit-

how.

Republican journals are cackling
over the big wheat crop as a God

If the Republican party had labor

If the big wheat crop of Ohio will

Republican party leaders have be-
come a foe to that restored, hsrmo-

which the best blood of the North

where are the idle mechanics and Ia

PLEASE REMEMBER,

In all future discussions of the
action and responsibility of the two
political parties please remember
three things:
|. The Democratic Congress APP
propriated $500, 900 TO pay the sala-
res and other expenses of the Mar
shals and their necessary deputies.
There are sixty-fve Marshals in he
service of the United States Govern
ment, and the provision for their
support and the performance of all
their constitutional and legitimate
duties was ample.
2. Rutherford B. Hayes, by the
grace of an Electoral Commission
President of the United States, to
which Office he was not elected by
the eople nor by the honest vote of
the Electoral Colleges, vetoed this
amply sufficient appropriation be-
cause it is not sufficient to pay thou
sands Of Republican deputies and
supervisors for interfering with the
elections and arresting Democratic
citizens before they have voted, rs
was done in New York city in 1878
by John l. Davenport ana his as
sistants.
3. All the Inconvenience to the
siXty-five Marshals and their neces.
sary deputies, arising from the non
of their salaries, is due to
the act of the Republican President
in vetoing the appropriation bill
which contained a sufficient provis.
ion for their payment and all the
legitimate expenses attendant on
the performance of their official du.
ties. g

Mr.. Fred B. Roney, Jr., a promi-
ncnt and educated colored Republi.
can of Columbus, in giving his opin-
ION of Charley Foster, Republican
candidate of Ohio, says:
"Foster recognizes no law or no
principle. Personal aggrandizement
is his object. He, in a manner, sac
riticed the colored people of a greal
commonwealth, by a count which is
an ineffacable stain upon tie party
He is a great counter. a1great trader

down trodden and oppressed people

rebuke him by an overwhelming de
feat. Not because l desire the de
feat of the party, but because l taxi
