TEE following 10 from the Boston
Herald, Republican journal:
"Those Republican speakers who ar
que that the election Of HANCOCK will
strike down our business prosperity
and reduce the wages Of labor may think
that they believe what they say, but We
are inclined to think that they would
zee that they never did believe it il
HANCOCK should be elected. We have
had a Democratic Congress for
some years. and by hook and
by crook we have been saved
from destruction. The country haseven
bsen more prosperous than before tor
wears. The sunshine has not been in
tercepted on its way to our part OF the
planet, the crops have been bountiiul
and labor has been employed. We see
no reason to believe that the election oil
HANCOCK would chang, all this. There
are reasons enough against giving tie
Democratic party control OF the govern
ment without the absurd pretence that
il would destroy our material prosper,
tv. for Democrats are willing to be ss
prosperous as Republicans. SO far as We
know

The bugaboo OF free trade was raised
by the Republicans at time when they
thought it would he too late in the cam
paign for the Democracy TO show what
an unreal sheet and pasteboard spook it
is. But the reaction in public sentiment
has been worked much more speedily
than they expected, and the honest
workingmen, who were first alarmed by
the specious sophistries and plausible
lies Of the Republicans, understand al.
ready the substantial differences be-
tween revenue reform and free trade;
between revenue reform and protection.
They comprehend that revenue reform
is very different from free trade, and
that protection. as it stands in the ex-
isting tariff, means grinding oppression
OF millions OF poor for the enrichment OF
few wealthy manufacturers.
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1880-11-02
1T WON'T REACH.

We publish on the first page contir-
matory evidence OF the purpose We dis
c'oseia few days since, on the part CT
the Republicans to buy the vote o!
West Virginia to-day.
The probability is that they have
abandoned the attempt to purchase the
electoral vote OF the State. finding that
$4,000 was hardly sufficient to compass
that enterprise, and that they will Tow
concentrate their efforts upon buying
one or more Of the Congressional dis
tricts.
The Republican candidate in this dis
trict seems to be largely in funds and to
be using the money without stint or
scruple unless he is very grossly mis-
represented.
But We can inform him that il he has
even the whole sum Of $4,000 at his
disposal for use in this district it will
not buy him enough votes to offset the
majority which will be set over against
his election to-day.
We have no special objection to the
Republican candidate adding the sum oi
$50, 900 to the circulation Of this district.
That is the only profit that will accrue
from it, and he can only share in it to
the extent that every other citizen OF
the district will share by having the vol
ume OF our circulating medium in
creased by that amount.

sHouLD THE NEXT L1oIsI.A.
CURE BE CoNvoKED IN All Elk
TIA SESSION.
Editor Register.
As /. seems TO be the opinion OF those
''learned in the Law" that, alter the
Governor shall have issued his procia-
nation announcing the adoption OF the
Constitutional Amendments, no resu,,
lar sessions Of courts can be held, would
Il not be wisdom aud economy Tor the
Governor to conyoke the new Leglsla-
ture in extra session as soon as practice.
Bile? What cay You, Messrs. Editorsf
Girls.
We answer, certainly not. why
should the Governor convoke the Legs
la,ure? The people have ratified the
amendments with their eyes open. AT
least they had no business to rah:y
them with their eyes shut They took
them as man takes a wife, for better
or for worse. 1t il TO be presumed
they saw the "worse" "a well as the
"betler" when they ratified; that they
saw the evils OF an in,erregnum in the
courts which their ratification involved;
that they took this along with the other
features; that. in fact, it was
Wholesale ratification and not ratifi'
cation Of a part and reputation OF
another part. Nothing was said about
convoking the Legislature in advance oil
the ratification, and the Governor will
not likely assume, therefore, that the
people expected him to help supply the
defects of the amendments which were
quite as conspicuous before as since
their ratification. The probability IL
that the people will conclude that the
amendments have already cost as much
as they are worth, without an extra
session of the Legislature. An equally
stron probability is that when Leg"
islaturc does tackle them, somebody will
wish it hadn't. We suggest to our cor
respondent that pa'iencsis one OF the
prime virtues.
