Political signs.

There are now Democratic govern
ors in twenty-five states Of the Union,
Republican governors in twelve states
and a readjuster in the remaining
state, Virginia.
The so called "northern". States
with Democratic governors are Cali
fornia, Colorado, Connecticut, Kansas,
Massachusetts, Michigan, Nevada,
New Jersey, New York and Pennsyl-
vania.
The states with Republican govern
ors are Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maine,
Minnesota, Nebraska, New Hamp-
shire. Ohio, Oregon, Rhode Island,
Vermont and Wisconsin.
OF these states Illinois in 1882
elected Republican state treasurer
and a Democratic Superintendent of
public schools. In the last Congress
the Republicans had a majority of
seven out of nineteen Illinois repre-
sentatiyes. or the present Illinois
congressman elected last November
the Republicans have only majority
of two out of twenty representatives
In Indiana in 1882 the state was
carried by the Democrats for Score
tary Of state by plurality Of 1854,
over the Republican candidate. The
Indiana delegation in the last house
of Representatives stood eight Re
publicans and fiye Democrats. In
the present House the Representation
elected in 1882 stands nine Demo
Gratis to four Republicans.
In Ohio, also, no governor was cleo
ted in 1882, but the Democrats car
ried the state for their candidate for
Secretary of state by 1915 over the
Republican candidate. The Ohio
representation in the last Congress
stood fifteen Republicans to five Dem
ocrats. In the Congressional repre-
sentation elected last November there
are thirteen Democrats and eight Re-
publicans.
In Wisconsin, again, there was no
election of governor in 1882. In 1881
the Republican governor was elected
by $4,000 over his Democratic oppo-
nent. In the Congressional election
Of last year the aggregate vote gave
the Democrats 5000 majority over
the Republicans. In the last Con-
gress the Wisconsin representation
stood six Republicans to two Demo
Gratis. In the present Congress the
representation stands six Democrats
to three Republicans.
These are the most important and
interesting facts bearing on the next
Presidential election. They show
that four of the most important states
are still holding on to Republican
governors elected prior to last No
vember went over to the Democrats
in 1882 and turned their Republican
majorities. If those four states had
elected governors last election they
would have chosen Democrats aud

the Republicans would have been left
Will, governors in only eight Of the
small states of the Union, having
among them forty six electoral votes.
In national point ofview the con
grcssional revolution in the impor-
tant western states still having Re
publican governors is most signifi-
cant, and bears directly on the
next Presidential election. Indiana,
Ohio and Wisconsin completely re-
verse the political complexion oftIleir
delegations, and Illinois very nearly
does the same thing.
The states with present Democratic
governors cast 272 electoral votes
Virginia, now with a readjuster gov
ernor, casts IL electoral votes, making
in all 284 votes.
or these the northern states in the
Democratic column cast 131 votes.
The states with present Republican
governors cast lit ELECTORAL votes.
II the Republicans should retain
all the states they now hold, includ-
ing Ohio, Illinois, Indiana and Wis
consin, and should. redeem Connect
cut, Kansas, Massachusetts, Michi-
gan, Nevada and Pennsylvania, they
would stillleave the Democratic Pres
ident with a majority Of II electoral
votes.
Instead of rcdeeming all these
states the Republicans are likely to
lose Indiana, Ohio, Oregon and Wis
consin, and probably Illinois.
The only reasonable conclusion.
that can be arrived at, in view of the
above facts and figures, is that the
corrupt reign of Republication is
about to terminate. The great reyo-
luton of last fall can not certainly
be changed next year, but indica-
tions are that it is expanding. The
tidal wave Of 1874 was followed by
the triumphant election of Tilden
and Hendricks, why then will not the
still greater tidal wave Of 1882 result
the same way. Pie Republicans are
alarmed. They try to conceal it, but
the tone of their leading papers, and
the hesitancy of their great party
leaders in starting Presidential
booms,, are conclusive proof of their
fear. At the same time there is go
ing to be great fight for the Demo
cratic nomination. For more than q
year there has been lively discus
sion as TO who the Democrats will
nominate. All has been quiet on the
other side. 1t shows that the Dem
ocratic nomination is worth the most.
We think the above signs show be-
yond doubt that the country is go
ing to get rid of this cold man of the
sea-" the Republican party, in 1884.

The New York World has figured
it out as follows: "There are now
Democratic Governors in 25 States
of the Union, Republican Governors
in II States and a Reputation Gov
ernor in the remaining State, Vir
ginia. = If the Republicans
should retain all the States they now
hold, including Ohio, Indiana, Hi
nois and Wisconsin, and should re-
deem Connecticut, Kansas, Massa-
chusetts, Michigan, Nevada and
Pennsylvania, they would still leave
the Democratic President with ma
jority of II electoral votes. Instead
of redeeming all these States the Re-
publicans are likely to lose Indiana,
Ohio, Oregon and Wisconsin, and
probably Illinois. The signs of the
times all indicate that the country
especially on National issues, repudi-
ates the Republican party. The PEG
pie have made up their minds that
there must and shall be a changer
And all the people cried, amen!

They Defeat Mnsontown by 81
Score Ofl3 to lO-.NOtcw Of the
Game Etc.

As the r. & Rs. departed for Ma,
sontown on Saturday, the boys felt as
though they had no friends in the
world; no one accompanied them, but
one person who was not member Of
the club, and the club was minus
their efficient second baseman, Hough
Anderson. On the way they stopped
and took Frank Vandervort in and
then proceeded to Masontown. where
they arrived about II o'clock. Here
they saw the familiar features of
Seaton and Jolliff, of the Uniontown
Club, each wearing large smile,
thinking how they would give Nor
gantown dose Of condensed light
ming; for had they not been sojourning
in the village for week, waxing
great and mighty as they practised
every day? After an excellent din
ner at the Sterling House, the club
repaired to the scene of conflict. Here
they noticed another strange face.
TWAS that of the "Fleatown Catcher"
a member of the Mt. Union B. B.
Club, who was said to come from the
classic precincts of "Fleatown," a
place not found on the State map of
Pennsylvania. AS usual our boys
had the first opportunity to fan the
zephyrs, and as usual Nate Kiger
swung the willow for score. His
example was followed by four more
Of the boys, so that the r. & Rs. took
the field with five scores to their
credit. The Sharpnacks succeeded.
in making three runs in the first in
ming, and five in the next two innings,
while Morgantown had nothing more
to her credit. But by far the most
exciting part of the game was the
ninth inning when the score stood 10
to 8 in favor of the Sharpnacks. Hen.
Hayes came to the bat first, and,
while he did not make one Of his
famous "homeruns,Y he succeeded in
making good base-hit, which started
the ball rolling and the boys made
four runs, and retired the Sharpnacks
with another goose-egg. The follow
ing is the score:

have been @kids," but theerowd soon
found that they could '.go it'' as fast
as anyone.
The II 70 Rs will play the Maids
vile club on the fairgrounds on Sat
.urday.
The White Rivers defeated the
Young Jumbos Of the Red Bridge on
Saturday last by score OF 50 to 13,
and played only seven innings.
Saturday evening, at the Town
Hall, the Sharpnacks gave an Ice
Cream and Oyster Festival. A good
social time was had By all, and the
club cleared quite a sum of money.
The r. & RS now want to hear
from Fairmont, where they have
club with patent twister and a
nickel-plated catcher. Won't the
Mountain City Club polish their
catcher and turn the crank on their
pitcher, and send them over.
The r. q Rs. will long remember
Taylortown and Greensboro for the
encouragement given them during
the game. Henry Hayes thinks his
good batting and fine catching was
superinduced by the cheerful smiles
Of encouragement he received from
one OF Grcensboro's bellies. Nate
Kigcr won't say, but he was noticed
to glance in certain direction quite
frequently, while Jno. Kiger did not
go through all those graceful maneu-
yers on first base for the edification
e0f the masculine part of the assem-
blage. We won't say anything
about Ike Hickman and VIII Joseph.
The Sharpnaeks are a NICE gentle
manly set of fellows with but one
exception, and there was no trouble
outside of that cansed by the excite
ment of the game. The kicker" Of
the club, whose name is Brady,
"kicks" much better than lie plays,
he "kicks" like whole platoon of
mules with bnrrs under their tails
We would advise the Sharpnacks to
hobble him, next time they play.
With this one terrible exception, the
Sharpnacks arc gentlemen, and treat.
cd the r. d Rs. nicely. Especially
do the boys remember the kindness
of Neff, johnson, Altman and Wal
tiers.

Dorsey's revelations show that
prominent Republicans all over the
country united in the belief that the
campaign of 1880 could he made to
end fayorably to the Republicans only
through the lavish use of money. 1t
was freely admitted that Ohio and
Indiana would both be lost to the Re-
publicans unless large sums Of money
were placed in them. Smith Of the
Commercial Gazette, put the caution
in his letter, that much Of the money
should be reserved for use on cleo
tion day." OF course, there can be
no pretense that it was wanted on
that day for anything but downright
bribery, because legitimate expenses
end the night before the election
This feature Of the campaign of 1880
is not pleasant to contemplate. If
the effect Of the bribery ended with
the election, it would be bad enough,
Heaven knows, but it does not end
there. The strength ola government,
Republican in form, consists in the
virtue of the people, in an uncorrupt
and incorruptible citizenship. All
power resides with the people. If
systematic corruption Of the people
is to be continued as it has been be-
gun by the Republican party, it does
require distant look into the future
to perceive the very existence of the
government itself endangered. Next
year the Republican party will spend
more money than it did in 1880. Cit
liens of Indiana who were satisfied
with two dollars for their votes then,
will demand five dollars in 1884. To-
cal bosses, who are bought, in the big
cities, are usually ward bummers,
that rated their sinfluence' at fifty
dollars in 1880, will double their
price for 1884. Men will be bought
next year who refused to sell, or who
did not know there was purchaser
in the field at the election in 1880.
1t is the nature of bad influences to
spread. The people have been made
fully aware of the evil practices ofthe
Republican party. And these prac-
tices will be made the subject Of Con-
gressional investigation next winter.
The people will vote next year with
their eyes wide open. If they sin
then, it will be against light, and
with the deliberate purpose to sane
ton and sustain what they ought to
spurn and condemn. The traditional
''crisis" will be with us next year in
reality, and we shall see what we
shall sec Kanatvha Gazette.

There are two Republican ghosts
that will not down in the campaign

bidden-the one is the ghost of the
fraudulent Hayes and the other that

the dsllonorable methods by which
Garfield was made President.

For Governor Of West yfrgf nfns
The Fairmont Inder puts s!le New
DOMINION in the attitude OF support
ing or favoring Hon. Henry G. Davis
for the next Governor of West yir-
ginia.
We ask orr intelligent and usually
correct contemporary to put on spec
tacles and read again.
We are not sensible of having
lioisted the banner of Henry G..
Davis or any other man for Gov
ernor. We are sensible of having
done exactly the contrary.
Noticing that some Of our cotem-
poraries in the State had entered up
on rather vigorous discussion Of
the next governorship; and noticing
further that some very energetic and
ambitious aspirants for the position
were already in the field setting up
the pins for their personal promotion
we took occasion to say by way of
suggestion that it was yet year and
a day, or such matter, before West
Virginia would need a new Governor;
that in the mean time there would be
abundant opportunity for the people
to look around and discover the man
they want; that they would be apt
to find him without the assistance Of
the men who believe themselves to
be the very fellows the people are
hunting; that for man to be run
ming after the people and packing
a convention in his own interest is.
the best evidence that he is not
the man whom the people are looking
for.
And, finally, by way ofan example,
we mentioned the name of Henry G.
Davis, as the kind Of man who
would fill the bill--a man above the
needs of the Office, having no personal
aud political ambition to subserve,
with a ripe experience, close identi-
fication with the interests of the State,
and easily the first man of his party
in the State.
This is the only use we made Of
his name; and in the same connection
we distinctly disavowed putting him
in nomination or anticipating such
an event. We expressed the con-
viction, which we still entertain,
that Mr.. Davis could not be induced
to accept q nomination or serve the
State in that capacity.
To name him as an example Of the
kind of man we want does not COM
nit the New DOMINION to his sup
port. On the contrary the New
DOMINION expects to have the plea
sure of supporting for that position,
probably, an, equally good man, or,
possibly, worse one. We recog-
nize that among the leading Demo
Gratis of West Virginia there are
some very excellent timber out of
which to make Governors, and we
propose to spend about a year in
selecting the best stick in the for
est, before committing ourselves to
any one.

Browns Iron BrTTERs
is one of the very few tonic
medicines that are not COM
posed mostly of alcohol or
Z whiskey, thus becoming a
fruitful source of intemper-
ance by promoting a desire
for rum.
Browns IRON B1TTERs
is guaranteed to be a nom
intoxicating stimulant, and
it will, in nearly every case,
take the place of all liquor,
and at the same time abso-
lutely kill the desire for
whiskey and other intoxi-
eating beverages.
Rev. G. w. RICE, editor Of
the american Christian Re
01ezO, says of Browns Iron
Bitters:

BRowN's IRON B1TTERs
has been thoroughly tested
for dyspepsia, indigestion,
biliousness, weakness, debil-
ity, overwork, rheumatism,
neuralgia, consumption,
liver complaints, kidney
troubles, &C., and it never
fails to render speedy and
permanent relief.
