n. fine for discussion has passed, and
,,bour for action has arrived. We are
,sd,O 20 to the polls to-day and decide
,,,o,hcr things who slnll represent US
,Conprcs, and by what principles and
,.i.r he sLall be guided and controlled
~, elected. We have two candidates
,,,hoose from, and also two policies. The
sncplss Of Gen. Coll are well and thor,
.,,bly defined. There Is not the shadow
JIoula in regard TO what course he will

eInbject.
Iursarl to Mr.. Good, it can DO said in
.,,c, truth thu, there has been a grave
tov vesisting in the public mind as 10
4, position on this subject, and this
I,uJt he has only undertaken personally
pdtsipale at the Inst moment. Accept
n, his statement rs ho has seen proper
IA make it at the close OF his canvass, and
dill The difference is that General Golf
s,pIs on an undoubted record OF years
on Ibis subject, while Mr.. Good, unfortu-
,,,ey Tor himself, is obliged 10 stand
Lrsly Oh bis recent declaration. It is
htrti1re natural that very many persons
,hO feel 4 deep interest in this subject
LhouId prefer, irrespective OF politics, 10
eas the fate OF this district in the hands
dlyeteran tariff champion like General
Gs5.
Il is thus that the issue is made up
q ubrtxcen Gen. Golf and Mr.. Good 10.
ar ltonly remains now for the people
b decide which Of the two they will
III. 10 serve their interests in Congress.
G,a: GOir will 80 10 Congress with a
tdOaal reputation, and will have
rat weight in committee and on the
tG rs the representative Of the
Fir. West Virginia District. He can be
dyeat service TO the district from the
VeF start, owing to his extensive and
inaaeu!al acquaintance with the public
mn Of the country. Nir. Good has no
nsh advantage, and the district can not
zap thc benefit of any such advantage
though his election. 1t will require the
ifpIeniceship Of one iull term at least, il
haMOre, Tor him 10 stand at the last where
G;a. Coli will stand at the start. This
"a very important difference indeed rs
'ay practical business man can see at once,
itd il ought to have its due weight with
tstry voter who is anxious to see this dis.
Gd attracting the attention Of the country
'il exercising commanding weight lin
aae1ce in national legislation.
Citizens Of Ohio county! pause a moment
tbs morning before you cast your vote and
* yourselves whether it is the highest
IND bestin interestsoi this city, and this county
Ind this district, that you propose to sub
'etSeby youryOte, or whether it is a mere
ARTISAN prejudice that actuates and governs
Hr choice. The success Of any one man
u matter OF small moment 10 You, but
y success Of the principles he may rep
'sn' and advocate may DO matter Of
I. mcst vital moment. This is the all
l.Por'ant consideration which every in
sIigent voter should take under consider
son to-day and which We commend to
as sober reflection before going to the
pdls.
