The real fight of Ewing. in Ohio, is
against the reviving prosperity of the
times. The good crops, increase in busi-
ness, prosperity in manufactures, enlarge
ment of occupation, improvement in
wages, are so much dead weight to be
lifted by Mr.. Ewing. If times were hard
wages low, wOrkInent oppressed, and all
things blue and disagreeable, he would
be in high feather. It is worth the while
of all thoughtful people to know whether
snch person represents their best inter
ests and feelings. Do they need Gov
ernOr in Ohio who will only represent
depression of business and the loss of
prosperity? If better times have come
from other sources, is it not better to put
them where they can continue to exert a
favorable influence. If resumption has
helped, why not elect the representatives
of resumption? If initiation did nothing
toward helping. why not lay it aside till
1t is more evidently needed? These are
practical, sensible questions. We think
Lhey will stand clearly ont before the
minus III US OF the Ohio people, who will have
SlIe gOod sense to declare that they will
nave no experiments, so long as they have
reallIy IN their favOr-P Pitts6ur0 CONNER
cial- Gazette.

THE daily papers of Saturday contained
a dispatch from England, announcing
the death of Nellie Grant SartOris, ,daugh-

however, proves to be untrue. Nellie

If any of the Democratic candidates
violate the Christian provisions of the
Seltz election law, and get themselves
into the penitentlary, it will be no fault
of ours; for we have not only published
the law in the HERALD, but we have, as a
friend, continued to warn them of the
dangerous results of violating Its pro-
visions. And we now repeat our caution
to them against the perpetratiOn of such
q wicked crime.

Fayette County herald. [volume] (Washington [Washington Court House], Fayette County, O. [Ohio]) 1860-1???, 1879-08-21

From the Ohio State Journal
We have great confidence in the ability
and experience of our Republican mani
ayers, this canvass, and doubt not that
they have discovered that the Democratic
tactics have changed. It is the present
policy of the Democrats to affect a certain
want of confidence which is calculated to
lull our forces into false security. There
is great victory in store for the Repub-
lican party, but we must work for it. 1t
Is possible to lose it, and it is not possible
to make it too sweeping. We need not
restrain ourselves.
The State is indignant with an imbecile
| Executive and farcical Legislative body
| The Nation is blazing with resentment
| against treachePOus sectional faction
| the leaders of which have stolen into our
! National Legislature, and captured all the
| approaches up to the very donjOn keep OF
an invincible Executive. These men have
Dardons in their pockets and the assassin IS
malice in their hearts. They have form
ed junction with their old allies who ali
through the late war occupied a position
midway between traitor and spy. These
fit allies lack only the ability to make this
| Nation by guile what they failed to make
it by an exhausting civil war. Theil
purpose has been unmasked. The people
can no longer doubt that these men are
plotting hopefully to turn to waste all
the precious blood that was poured on
| like water to preserve us a Nation. This
conviction has come through patient and
magnanimOus tenders of trust and amity
which have been met with chicanery anC
falsehoOd.
The people are thoroughly reused by
the knowledge of these facts. The lat
session of Congress has operated like tn,
attack upon Fort Sumter. We have haC
no snch meetings since the war as tn,
meetings of this campaign OuE tow
meetings have been like State Conven
tions in size and enthusiasm.
IL would require blundering wors,
than criminal to fail in this canvass
Yet, the very gravity of the exigenc,
and the confidence and determination O
the people, call for multiplied caution ant
exertiOn. We may trust too much t
these, and oolittle to the prosaic detail
of "drin and discipline.' I.ut us hav
our forces well in hand. Bring out tn,
reserves. Attack at all points, with ever
arm of the service. What we want is no
a simple Victory-let us have a rout o
the enemy. Send them whirling.

GovERNoR BISHOP, the present Demo-
cratic Governor of this State, has, in less
than two years that he has occupied the
Executive chair, pardoned more than
three hundred cOnYicts ont of the Peni-
tontiary. 1t is unfortunate for the con-
victs now in the Penitentlary that Bishop
was not nominated for reelection, for, in
that event, the Penitentiary might have
been emptied, and the Democratic vote
been largely increased thereby.

The RemooracT and Greenbacks.

1t is amusing to look back over the files
of the newspapers published during the
late rebellion, and see what the Demo-
cratic leaders thought of tile greenback
currency, that the Union Congress was
forced to resort to in order to save the
life of our government. To remind the
Democrats of our county of the great ap-
probation they had of Mr.. Chase green
hack currency, we have only to quote the
following editorial paragraph from the
Register, of this place, which was then,
as now, the organ of their party, and
which they all swore by, The Register
triumphantly, as it were. said:
eve told the people that within less
than five years from that date, they,
(green backs) would not be worth ten
cents on the dollar; and what, we now
ask, has been the result? You can buy
for one dollar in gold two dollars and
fifty cents of Mr.. Chase's delectable cur
Fency."
This was said by the Register in August,
1864, and repeated by every Democrat
you could meet on the streets. That was
only Is years ago, and the result of Re-
publican financiering is, this same green
back currency is now worth dollar for
dollar as much as gold.
Now, hadn't we better let the currency
alone? Is it not good enough? Mr.. Ew.
ing, the present Democratic candidate
for Governor, thinks it is too good, hC
wants to dilute it with additional issues
of greenbaeks until it shall be worth one
dollar and fifty cents less than gold.
That would be the result of his style OF
financiering. 1t has been the result o
his skill in tinanciering for himself, which
is certainly no very FAVORABLE recon-
mendatiOn to him as a financier. or as
competent teacher of finances to others
The people have no confidence in MFR
Ewing's monetary theory, and prefer t,
trust the management of public affairs t.
the hands of those who have brought the
value of Mr.. Chase's greenback currenc
from $50 per cent. discount up to par wit
gold.
