HHION va. GARY.n

Colonel Rion Makes Somo Corrections in
,,...n His Reported Speech.
The following communication ap-
pears in the Beaufort Crescent Of the
10th instant:
TO the Editor Of the Crescent:
have just seen Your editorial Of the 2ltl
nlt., with the above heading, which
you introduced with this paragraph:
GAS might be expected, with the
pronounced enmity to Gary, by all
Hampton Democrats, there are found
any number Of followers, Jealous with
haste to join in hot pursuit Of the OBJ
jectOf hatred of their chief, and Tray,
Blanche and Sweetheart join in the
onslaught
Your remarks afford me an oppor-
tunity Of making statement which
could not have made after eGeneral
.Gary's remarks in the Convention,
prior to his making in the newspapers
his reply to my supposed speech, with
out being liable to having my motives
lnisjnlcrpreted. ,.
l will now state that my rcmrrks
were not correctly reported in the
Fairfield News AND HERALD lowing
to circumstances not the fault of that
paper); and as they appear when
copied in other papers isolated from
the proceedings of our county conven-
tion, | am placed in position which is
very dlstasteful to mo. I am placed
In the position Of making gratuitous
attack upon General Gary, or, as he
Ittopi propeir,,yy styled It, an "'oxxtraordnary
AS to the correctness of tho report, I
did not charge that General Gary
"made an attack upon General Grants
wife;' nor did / state in tho absolute
form given, the words attributed to
General Lee.
My speech was made upon my be-
ing called upon personally, as one
nominated for the State Convention
upon o Question before the meeting,
and in reply to remarks made by Major
Woodward, who justified his declara-
tion that if sent to the convention the
would vote Tor. General Gary upon
certain grounds. 'S;' & TO these, grounds I
replied se,totin, speaking kindly Of
General Gary personally; repndiating
the huiniliating position that General
Gary was an object OF sympathy, and
giving my own reasons for not lsl,p-
porting him for The office Of Governor
unucr any circumstances, fss being that
regarded him rs devoid Of prudence
in his career as apublic man, and that
the thcn probable prospect required
that we should have in the Office of
Governor q man Of great prudence, and
ono to.whom General Grant would not
be personally hostile. s.
In confirmation Of the tone and tenn.
per Of my remarks, I would state that
members Of tho convention who heard
my speech, have remarked to mo that
they beard nothing that could be per-
sonally offensive to General Gary. I
will also state that q friend of, General
Gary who had served in the war With
him, and was fellow delegate with
me, after hearing General Gary's re-
marks III tho convention, was, like my
self, ignorant that was the person re-
tcrred to as Casting slur upon his
var record." Twill also state that at

To the Republican rioters Of the Union:
The election of Tuesday las, clearly shows
that with continued zeal and systematic eff
fort. the Republican triumph in November
will be complete and overwhelming. Our
plurality in Ohio is about 22.000. being q
gain of 5000 over an exceptionally large
plurality of 1879. while the election of Is
of the 20 Congressman gives us a gain of G
members.
Our plurality in Indiana reaches sbou,
1000, being gain Of p 600 upon the Dem
ocratic plurality of 1879. In the Legisla-
ture We have majority of II. in eontras,
with a Democratic majority Of 20 in the las,
Legislature, thus gaining a United States
Senator. OF the l3 Congressional districts
nine have been carried. making a gain OF
three members. The result in each State.
and especial, in Ohio, is a conclusive an
swer Of the people TO the false and malig-
nant assaults upon the personal character Of
our candidate for President.
Both these victories are the results Of the
spontaneous and enthusiastic uprising OF
the people in favor of patriotic principles,
enlightened legislation and good govern
meni. That in Indiana has been won in
spite Of the lavish expenditures Of money
BY the Democratic candidate for Vice prcsi-
dent, who was nominated solely for tina,
purpose. and BY the eastern emissarics who
in 1876 vsinly attempted to purchase the
Presidency. and have recently traversed that
State. shouting against, and at the same
time perperating the frauds made possible
BY the looses; election laws existing in any
State in the Union. and which were pur-
posely retained in force by the Democratic
Judicial outrage.
1t is apparent from these results. tina, il
the Republicans relax no exertion ever,
Northern State will choose Republican
Presidential electors. while il is not improb-
able that some Of the southern States will
give their votes for Garfield and Arthur

The Victory.

Complete returns from Ohio give Town
send, for Secretary of State, plurality of
1925, and all the other candidates plurali-
ties of over 20,O09. The Republicans also
gain SIX Congressman, making the delega-
ton from Ohio, in the next Congress, Is
Republicans and Democrats.
In Indiana, returns from all but one
county give Porter for Governor plurality
OF 6,s34. and the Democratic plurality in
the remaining seounty is certain to be less
than $50. The Republicans also gain two
congressman and elect the entire State tick
ct. The Legislature has fourteen majority
On joint ballot, thus insuring a Republican
Senator in place of Mcdonald, Democrat
In both States il Is clean sweep and the
majority for Garfield in November will be
larger than the majority in this election. No
intelligent Democrat believes his party can
carry Indiana in November.
The same influences that have given those
states to the Republicans will be more po-
tent in the doubtful States east. While
the election of Gen. Garfield now seems as
sured the party will leave nothing undone
that can add such an assurance as will
leave no chance for a Democratic Congress
to attempt to count him out The people
are satisfied and do not want ''change,"
