Dirty Tricks of DemOc-
racV.

The Democratic committees are well
supplied with money. There is no mis-
take about that. They are spending five
dollars this year to one expended in any
former year. The importing houses and
free trade leagues can well afford to pay
handsomely for Democratic victory.
We have it from the most unquestion-
able authority that packages" of decu-
ments have been prepared for distribu-
ton on the day before the election, (and
the remote townships two or three days
before,) making gross personal assaults
upon Gems. Garfield and Arthur. 9th
er documents in the same package will
be highly eulogistic of Gen. Hancock,
with cuts entitled Hancock at Gettys-
burg" Hancock wounded at "Gettys-
burgh," etc.
Another package will contain docu-
ments assailing Maj. Townsend, Repub-
lican candidate for Secretary of State.
In some portions of the State he will be
represented as man addicted to intoxi-
cation and secret debauchery. The tenn
perance people are to have the benefit
of that class of campaign literature. In
other localities he will be represented as
a Temperance fanatic" crusader and
prohibitionist.
The idea of the Democratic Commit
tees is that by circulating these docu-
ments by the million, after it is too late
to make any reply, the effect will be
such as to manufacture a Democratic
majority in the Republican State Of
Ohio.
This is an old and stale trick-a Dem
ocratic trick that has been practiced
for fifty years, but never yet with profit
We mention these facts in order to put
our Republican friends on their guard
and to notify them of the insult which
the Democratic Committees propose to
offer them next Saturday, Sunday and
Monday.
Some of these documents will be dis
tributed through the mails; but as rule
they Will be sent to the country districts
by express, and distributed by men de-
signated and hired by the local commit
tees for the purpose.
Republicans should be on the look out
for these fellows. No respectable and
decent Democrat will act as distributor
of these infamous libels.-O. S. Journal,

The October Elections.
jncinnatI Commercial. MONDAY.

Cincinnati Commercial, Monday
The week opens up brightly and prom
isingly for the Republicans in Indiana
and Ohio. The great mass meetings OF
the last week show that they are alive
to the Importance of getting out the full
vote at the elections to take place week
from tomorrow. And it can not be too
| strongly impressed on their minds that.
so far AS the two States are concerned,
they practically determine the result
in November on that day. Should they
be successful in both States, il. would be
decisive of the Presidential election, car
rying CONSERVATION into the ranks of the
enemy, and producing Generalization
there that can not be recovered from in
four weeks. 1t would insure New York
beyond all doubt. The influence of such
victory would even be felt in the South,
and disposition might there be shown
to give the Republicans of the late slave
States fair hearing at the polls.
1t is not, therefore, merely State and
local success that hangs on the October
elections. They are National in their
Importance and far-reaching in their in
fiuence. AZ to Ohio, there is no doubt
of Republican triumph, but the ma
jority should be large and emphatic
enough to convince the Democracy of
the utter futility of all effort to carry it
in November. The Republicans can
just as well end the contest on the sec
ond Tuesday of October us to. drag it on
a month longer, But to do this requires
a united effort and full vote.

THE fact that British gold has been
sent to this country to assist the ss-call-
ed Democrats and break down our tariff
laws is well established. Here is a sam
pie of how some of it is used. We quote
from the Wheeling Register of Friday:
EVERY arrangement has been made
for Wheeling's participation in the grand
demonstration to be held at Bellaire to-
day. The train will leave the B. & o.
depot-not the Hempfeld--at $50
o'clock in the evening. Ample accom-
mediation will be had for all who may
attend. All voters are cordially invited
but boys under age will not be passed
unless they belong to some organiza-
tiOn."
"All voters are cordially invited, 6,u
boys aoin not be passed unless" &c. A
free train is provided, it will be observed
paid for, no doubt, by British gold.

AUGUST s, 1864, Mr.. ID. w. VOORHEES,
made a speech at Greencastle, Indiana
in which he urged that the war was a
failure, and said:
'Three human souls were hurried into
eternity by each of Mr. Lincoln's Jokes
Another section of land, in view of Mr..
LincOln'S room, had been dug up for a
graveyard, and while he jested and joked
with his servile crew he could look out
on this scene of dying and death. Yet
you propose to me to retain that mon
ster another term Of Ollice-that monster
that, with an utter disregard of human
life and human misery, has proposed to
prOlOng his term of Office. Gentlemen,
it seems to me that | can hear the spir-
its of hundreds of thousands of lives
that have been uSeleSsly sacrificed in
this war, pleading against the reelection
of this man. 1t seems to me the. very
inanimate objects and dumb brutes
would cry out: Enough; he has had his
day; bloody, CORY, reeking, let him go
out INTO hateful obscurity, there to spend
the residue of his days with the ghosts
of the murdered dead gibbering around
his unhappy pillow"
The man who votes the Democratic
ticket at this time votes to make that
sort of thing fashionable. After few
years of Democratic administration the
above would be nice extract for

eral days recently in Columbiana and
Trumbull counties, and who attended
the great meeting at Warren, reports
that the enthusiasm among Republicans
up there is unprecedented, and that the

tremendous majorities. Meetings are

HARTFORD, Oct. 4-The result of the
town elections in Connecticut to-day
shows large Republican gains over the
same elections in 1915. The city of
Hartford, which in 1876 gave $50 major
ity for Tilden, now goes Republican by
400 majority, on the most important
town officers-a Republican gain OF
1900. Returns from other towns Of the
State also show large Republican gains
over 1915. Republicans are everywhere
rejoicing and are in the best of spirits
over the result, regarding it as indica-
tive of sure triumph in the State on
the I'd day of November.
New Britain. Meriden, New London
and Norwich. which are manufacturing
places, have gone Republican by large

THERE is nothing of what used to be
vulgarly styled "boom" in the present
business prosperity. 1t is steady, and
has come to stay, providing the people
do not drive it away by their votes next
Tuesday. The Republicans propose to
"let we'll enough alone" to leave undis-
turbed the tariff, revenue, and banking
laws. under which the great commercial,
manufacturing, and agricultural inter-
ests of the country are flourishirg so
grandly.
The so-called Democrats resolve in
convention that they favor a tariff for
revenue only, which means that the
manufacturers of Great Britain and 9th
Ter foreign countries, with poorly paid la
Dor in their employ, are to compete with
the manufacturers of this country. They
threaten mischief to the internal reve-
nue. laws, and to undo the admirable
banking system of the country. They
threaten a deluge of Southern war
claims, which will put a burden upon
the backs of the people for generations
to come.
The triumph of the Republican party
this year means peace and plenty and
continued prosperity.
The triumph of the so-called Demo-
cratic party means bankruptcy and ruin.
Men who have property, great or small
-men who do not expect office by a

THE South does not want ANY claims
paid; of course not. That is why, when
an amendment was proposed forbidding
the payment of claims of any kind to
disloyal persons, one Confederate in the
House voted for it, forty-four Confeder-
ates in the House voted against it, and
twelve Border Democrats voted with
them. The Republicans voted solidly
for the amendment out Of pure spirit
of sectionalism.
