ton Oh next Tuesday. Your vote
may save the country.

THERE have recently been some extra
ordinary pretensions put forth as to the
certainty of the hold of the Democrats
on the next Legislature. They will hard
ly bear analysis, if we compute the re-
suit Oh the vote for Secretary of State in
1878. Soon after the last October cleo
tion we published carefelly prepared
table showing what the result would be
were the vote this year to show no
changes in favor of the Republicans.
But there is not an intelligent man in
the State who believes the Republican
vote for Foster will not show decided
gain on that given for Barnes last year.
Taking that vote as a basis, however,
it was demonstrated that the House
would be tie, standing 81 Democrat to
to 81 Republican, while the Senate
would stand, as closely as then
could be estimated, 2S Democrats to II
Republicans; thus giving the majority
of three on the joint ballot, should no
changes occur. In the counties accredlt-
ed to the Democrats are no less than ten
with majorities under 800, and about the
same number which the Republicans
carried by equally small margins.
But there is not one of these close Re
publican counties which are not sure to
increase their majorities of last year,
while there are several which then went
Democratic in which Foster is certain
to carry and the boom for the State
ticket will surely help the Representa-
tive candidates where no local causes
exist to induce scratching a gain of
two members, upon the basis of the cleo
tion last year, will give the Republicans
the Legislature.
The Republicans should, however, un-

THE pension arrears payments order
ed by the extra session of Congress have
become the largest item of expenditure
in the Interior Department of the gov
ernment. Last month the amount paid
out on this account was over $S,OOO,OOO
making the decrease of the public debt
about S2,OOO,OOO, when it might have
been five times that amount. The most
serious aspect of the matter is that each
week new and entirely unexpected cases
arise, in which, in accordance with the
law, sums varying from a few hundred
to a few Thousand dollars have to be
paid. Many complicated cases also arise
in which, whether the claims are paid
or not, the costs of Investigation are
very considerable. During september
there was a very considerable increase
of internal revenue and customs re-
ceipts, and with the exception of the
pension arrears item, the public debt
statement is very satisfactory. The
prospects are that Secretary Sherman's
estimate of the ultimate cost of that
piece of legislation will be found much
under rather than over the mark-Balto.

More Imperial Necessity.
Ohio State Journal

~. F. Mckinney, Chairman" and
Carson Lake, Cor. Sec'y," have just is
sued a supplement to the Imperial ne
cessity" circular The entire circular is
a frantic appeal to Democrats in the
close and doubtful counties to save the
Legislative candidates. There is not a
word in the circular relative to the State
ticket. We extract the following para
graphs from the circular:
DEAR SIR-The Democratic State
Committee is reliably informed that the
Republicans confidently expect to de-
feat the Democratic candidate for the
Legislature in your county.
In their eagerneSS to secure the Leg
islature, they will use every means in
their power, from the exercise of politi-
cal strategy and demagogery to the Law
ish use of money.
Should they be successful, the next
Legisture would elect a Republican Uni
ted States Senator, and the Republicans
would be encouraged in their efforts to
regain the control of the U. 5. Senate,
which, with its present Democratic MA
iOrity, is proceeding in the work of re-
form so imperatively demanded by the
people. Indeed it might be possible,
with the loss of Senator from Ohio
for the control of that body to pass into
the hands of the Republicans in the
next two years.
Besides the election of United
States Senator, there is an absolute ne
cessity, growing out of the monetary
condition of the country, that the eco
nOmical measures inaugurated by the
Democratic Legislature, should not only
be continued, but extended.

REPUBLICANS.

We have all heard the sickening details
of lawlessness, intolerance and violence
in the solid South" We have all heard
of the spirit, again rampant, that carried
US into Rebellion, and our hearts are
again fired with indignation at the au-
thors or all the miseries of the war and
who would again plunge us into inter-
necine strife. We all fully realize this,
and have, since the house of rebel Briga
diers attempted their revolution last
winter. Now, we appeal to yOu-What
are you doing to arrest this calamity :?
Are you watching with fidelity, that no
duty is left undone to secure the tri-
umph of your party at the coming cleo
tion? We know you are aware of the
threatening danger-but what are you
doing to arrest it? Is there doubtful
voter, talk with him, convince him of
his duty, and see that he votes right.
Does any one lack papers ?-have them
procured. Is there any man likely to be
kept from the election by avoidable
causes ?-lend him helping hand, and
secure his vote. Have you aged voters
that need assistance to get to the polls,
provide conveyances and help them out.
We implore you to arouse to the ne
cessity of the hour. Put on your whole
armor-bravely battle for the right from
now till the close of the polls. We will
not insult your intelligence by repeating
the reasons for this; they are all known
to you; they are written in the intoler-
ance and wicked designs of the Demo
cratic party, written in blood, are clad
in the habiliments of treason, again
rampant-all these, and more, appeal to
you to do your duty, your whole duty.

sarcastic, irOnical, contemptuous and
suggestive climax. He stands fully,
firmly and equally upon both heels, with
both hands pushing back his coat skirts,
and inserted in his breeches pockets, his
head thrown back and his chin moving
slowly and slightly up and down, while
his lower lip is thrust upwards in the

derstand that while they are reasonably
sure of the State, the contest for the
Legislature will be close, with the
chances in their favor. They must
make determined fight, and not go to
trading votes, out of apprehension of the
defeat of the State ticket, and not above
all not swap" for the sake of electing
some county officers. A United States
SenatOrship is at stake, and the prospects
of Thurman for the Presidential nOmi-
nation are involved. The loss of the
State will put an end to Ewing's ambi-
ton for time at least. And the loss of
the Legislature will be Thurman's
qu!etus for the Presidency. To these
two men more than any others are due
the prominence of financial and State
rights heresies in the politics of the
country, and they should be buried so
deep under the votes of the people of
Ohio that search warrant will be need
ed to find them.-Cin. Commercial.

The Democratic Diagnosis.

The disagreements of the Democratic
doctors as to the state of the county are
enough to raise doubt as to the propriety
of trusting the patient to their treatment
For example, Mr.. PendletOn says the
equalization of currency and specie was
brought about by the forced process of
contraction of the greenback and bond
currency, through terrible calamity, and
that although it is a good achieved, it
was achieved at terrible sacrifice, and
that the party which did it ought to be
condemned. On the other hand, Mr..
Hendricks says that the claim that John
Sherman's measures brought about re-
sumption is false, for it was done by the
voluntary economies of the whole people,
which reduced purchases, and so turned
the balance of trade in our favor. Thus
one makes the whole process a healthy
and wealthy one, and the other a cause
of disaster
But Mr.. Pendleton sees only frown-
ing providence in all this, and declares
it course of calamity. And Mr.. Ewing
denies that there is any good anywhere; !;
any prosperity or any signs of it. He
says all is poverty and suffering, and
will continue so, and he insists that
everybody shall be poor and distressed
until we elect him Governor, and then
elect him President, and set the green
back mills running, and depreciate our
currency one-half. While Democratic
statesmen differ so widely in their views
of the state of the country, is it better to
put it into their hands to be tinkered?

A DEMOCRATIC DETECTION
Why An Old Soldier Leaves the
Democratic Party.

Maj. Gen. Sam. Beatty, Of Canton,
heretofore one of the leading and most
influential Democrats. of Stark county,
came out last week in the Repository in
the following letter 10 his friends and
comRdes:
HACing stated to some Of my friends
that intended to vote for Foster and
the other candidates On the Republican
ticket, and having been interviewed and
questioned, il it be so, ETC., desire to
say through the columns of your paper
that my fixed purpose is to support the
regular ticket and to give what influ-
ence l may have to secure the election of
its ticket. i do this for numerous rea-
sons that / could give, but especially
upon the questions of finance and what
is known as the question of State
rights" The first in my judgment is, or
at least should be, considered settled.
The paper dollar, the promise of the
government, issued because of the ne
ceSsity of war, to feed and elOthe the
army that put down the rebellion, is to-
day equal in value to gold, and the man
or the party who would disturb or de-
preciate its value by overissue or other
wise, will not support.
But more serious question than that
of finance stares us in the face, the same
that confronted US in 1860 and 81. Shall
the States of this country be the United
States, and shall the Constitution Of
these United States be the supreme law
of the land9 The purpose was to settle
these questions by the late war. The
noble Union army stood as "Wall Of
fire" between secession and the Union.
For four long years we fought the enc
my that rose up to destroy the govern.
ment and capture its Capital, and pre-
vented the record being made upon the
pages OF history that the United States
were divided States.
Union soldiers of the late war, ap-
peal to you, shall these States be divided,
whether it be accomplished by refusing
supplies to the government officers in
command at Fort Sumter, or by war, or
by Congress refusing to make the neces-
saTy appropriations that the laws of the
general government may be enforced,
such Congress being controlled by the
edicts of King Caucus, and such caucus
controlled by the Brigadiers and Gener-
ais of the late rebel army?
No, by the memories of Bunker Hill
and the sufferings at Andersonville, the
Union formed by our fathers, and de-
Tended by the late Union soldiers, -let
no man put asunder." The principles 1
fought for on the field of battle, against
the mouth of the cannon, am ready to
contend for and defend at the polls
against intimidation and tissue ballots.
Put me down for Foster, q sound cur
rency, and national supremacy.

it would be bad thing to meddle with

DURING the vital crisis of the re-

back upon our armies in the field, and
our great cities rocked with fierce in
ternal cOmmOtiOn, as the time drew
round for the Fall elections in the North,
the loyal hearts of the nation looked
anXiOusly for the annual verdict of Ohio,
well knowing that as she spoke would
be voiced in clarion tones, encourage
ment to our gallant soldiers, and cOrre-
spending chagrin and disappointment to
the rebel leaders and skulking treason
at home. Ohio seldom failed to respond

of that loyal sentiment. Voters of Bel
