Davis Mackley, Esq:
DEAR SIR-The Democratic COM
mittee are sending out a supplement
of campaign lies, among the rest is
the item that the Jackson Standard,
after supporting Foster for few
weeks, advises it's readers to support
Ewing. Please give them true stall
wart blast through the Standard.
Yours truly,
S. p. VAUGHN.

D. Mackley, jackson, Ohio
DEAR SIR-Please send us a few
copies of your paper. Some Of our
Democratic frauds here, who read the
Iron Era" say your paper has gone
square back on Foster, and we wish to
show them just how you stand. Send
them to yours, etc,
JOHN W. CAMPBELL,
Mount Vernon Furnace,
Ironton, Ohio.
Here is another, from one Of the
editors Of the Kenton, Ohio, Republi-
can:
KENToN, ONO,
September Sd, 1879.
To the Editor of the Standard:
DER SIR I frequently see extracts
from your paper, from which | judge
you have a very mean kind of Demo-
Gratis in your county, but | think we
have got them here that are as mean
as there is made. The editor of the
Kenton Democrat publishes extracts
from your paper IN such garbled
shape that they are made to say ex-
actly contrary from what you intend
ed them to mean. | enclose a copy of
the record Of the id scoundrels dur
ing the war, and they are meaner now
than they were then.
IF the edition is not exhausted, |
should like a copy Of your paper of
July 18th, | think it is, where you
come to life after being killed by the
Democrats under John Morgan.
Yours truly,
LII. HUNT,
Associate Editor Republican.
Here is another, from one of the
editors of the Marysville Tribune:

Brother Mackley:
DEAR SRI mail you to-day copy
of the Union County Journal-a DEM
ocratic paper Of this place, in which
appears an erroneous statement that
you refuse to support Foster. Will
you be kind enough to make such
reply as you think proper, and let US
have access to the article. | do think
we have some Of the most unprinci-
pied men in the Democratic party
here that [ ever saw. Nothing is too
mean or underhanded for that faction
to commit in order to entice voters
into their clap-trap. We think a
severe contradiction of this article will
convince many that they are applying
their lies to iostle themselves over
their ''last ditch.
YouxG very truly,
w. o. SHEARER.
This IS the article sent by Mr.
Shea-er, which we clip from the DEM
ocratic paper:
The Standard, an old Republican
paper, and heretofore the organ of the
Republican party in jackson county,
can no longer support the demagogue
Republican candidate for Governor,
and in a recent issue says: Now we
are compelled to do everything in our
power to prevent the election Of Fos-
ter, and we appeal to all Republicans
to oppose him and go solid for General
Ewing Let facts be submitted to a
candid world
We rgain publish the article which
we published last week, taken from
the Bucyrus Journal:
SHAMEFUL DIsHoNEsTY.-The Jack
son Standard recently published a
broadly ironical article, evidently in
tended to be understood just the re-
verse of what it stated, and now GER
tain Democratic papers are selecting
its sarcastic and ironical sentences,
and printing them prominently as Il
serious proof that the paper has
changed its sentiments.
Gentlemen, if gentlemen can do
such things, such proceeding may be
sharp politics, but it is very dull
scoundrelism, and your own con-
sciences will so warn you if you are
not so degraded that you have long
ceased to have either an active con-
science, or a decent character.
Unfortunately there is enough, that
opponents who could press
with crushing effect this fall, without
such contemptibly shallow lying.
Here is an article taken from the
Fostoria Review, published at the
home of Charles Foster:
The Ohio Democratic Executive
committee have issued an extra
through the medium of the rural
Democratic journals IN which occurs
the following paragraph:
