LET us all labor and hope for Ohio,
fellow Democrats, bullet us not cultivate
the error that vigilance and energay
are to be suspended or postponed any
where until Ohio has voted in October,
or that confidence and hope are to
abate should Ohio then vote wrong.
The enemy is not to have the advant-
age ofpivoting the struggle or concen-
trating his strength on any one state.
The Democracy means to confront and
press him everywhere. Blaineism is
in danger all along the line. It is to be
fought and whipped all over the rest
of the United States as well as in Ohio.
Give the Ohio Democracy all honor
and help. If they win let them go up
ahead. If they fail to win the other
states will, nevertheless, plant the DEM
ocratic standard on the heights of vic
tory.

ENTHUSIASTIC Democrats and Inde.

ENTHUSIASTIC Democrats and Inde-
pendents think there is good chance
for Massachusetts to choose Cleveland
electors, and give their figures for it.
They estimate the prohibition vote at
10000, Butler's vote at 10000, and the
bolter's vote at 10000. With these hg-
ures, Massachusetts becomes doubtful
with leaning toward Cleveland. The
Butler movement make no headway.
Intelligence from all parts of the State
indicates that the Democratic party
will be practically solid for the Demo
cratic ticket.

To Voters.

UNMARRIED men who desire to vote
at the October election for State and
county officers, Congressman and
Judges, should be careful not to remove
from one township to another after the
Goth inst. The law requires twenty
days residence in atownship prior to
election day, inclusive. The law pre-
scribes first, United States citizenship;
next, residence of one year in Ohio, and
80 days in the county for all men q
years old and upward. Single men
must also have lived in a township 20
days prior TO the election.

THE vanity of Toledo is excelled by
its selfishness-both are eclipsed by its
ingratitude. The greatest disgrace of
most Of the ancient cities was their
persecution of their most eminent and
public spirited citizens. In this Toledo
seeks to rival Carthage and Athens.
Its selfishness induces it to dwarf every
consideration and make everything
subservient to its material interests. In
its estimation river and harbor appro-
priations is the only purpose Congress
has to serve-and Toledo the only place
to be thus sarved. Yet as soon as q
representative is secured in a district,
of which that city is unfortunately a
part, who acquires a national. reputa-
tion and becomes pride to his coun-
try, who secures for the city everything
that could be asked, the venal and en-
vious spirit of that sullen mart of trade
becomes personified and seeks at once
by means fair and foul, to pull from his
high position the citizen who has so
nobly won distinction. Nor does it ex-
hibit even sufficient chlvalry to place in
competition with him man of ordi-
nary talent or even common education,
but selects one who cannot even write
an ordinary business telegram, and then
seeks success by appeal to the lowest
and most groveling instincts of man.
Should Toledo defeat Frank Hurd,
which we do not believe possible, We
most devotedly hope and trust that its
selfishness will be punished by with
holding all appropriations to that would
be Pekin of America.

REPUBLICANS are resorting to their
old game of deceiving voters by telling
them that the election of Democratic
President will destroy the business in
terests of the country. The Democrat
ic party contains as many, and proba-
ably more, business men as the Repub-
lican party, and you can bet your last
dollar that the Democracy will take
good care that business interests won't
suffer as they have under Republican
rule.

RoMEIs, who is running against Hurd
for Congress in the Toledo district, is
probably the least qualified for that
position of all the Republicans in the
district. He might serve in town
council or perhaps in a State legisla-
ture, but he would have no standing or
ever be heard of in Congress. He
would be disgrace to the great in
terests at stake in the Toledo district.

JAY GOULD has contributed $50, 900 to
the Republican campaign corruption
fund, which amounts to over $3.50, 900
for Ohio alone. The Democrats have no
rich railroad and manufacturing kings
to help them financially or otherwise,
but rely wholly upon the honest people
for votes enough to overthrow the cor
rupt Republican dynasty, which is
making the rich richer and the poor
poorer.

Boston, April IS, 1872.
My DEAR BLAINE.-Your favor of
the 18th inst, reached me this morning.
| am surprised at its contents. l have
loaned you at various times, when you
were comparatively poor, very large
sums of money, and never have you
p.id me one dollar from your own
pocket, either principal or interest, [
have paid sundry amounts to others to
whom you were indebted, and these
debts you have allowed to stand un-
paid like the notes which hold. I
hive placed you in positions whereby
you have received very large sums of
money without one dollar of expense
to you, and you ought not to forget the
act on my part. OF all the parties con-
nected with the Little Rock and Fort
Smith Railroad, no one has been so for
tunate as yourself in obtaining money
out of it. You obtained subscriptions
from your friends in Maine for the
building of the Little Rock and Fort
Smith Railroad. Out of their sub
scriptions you obtained large amount
both of Bonds and money free of cost
to you. have your own figures, and
know the amount. Owing to your po-
litical position you were able to work
off all your bonds at a very high price,
and the fact is well known to others as
myself. Would your friends in Maine
be satisfied if they knew the facts?
Are my associates satisfied to have you
obtain $4,000 for Northern Pacific
Railroad, and you not make the invest
ment as per agreement? The course
you have thought proper to take in re-
gard to my request is rather poor one
| taking your relations with me, and /
again ask you to reconsider it and grant
it. You will find it much easier to pay
by obtaining the Credit, and I selected
that course thinking it to be the best.
If you again decline, shall be obliged
to use the notes or sell them to outside
purchasers. Necessity knows no law.
Whatever Bonds still due to you will
be delivered as the road progresses.
The other portions of your letter |
make no reply. You know the facts;
it is sufficient that ] know them, and
it is useless to mention them at this
time. Please answer at once. I re-
main,
Respectfully yours,
WARREN FISHER, Jr.
Can anything be conceived more
damning to the character of any man

Mr.. Blaine before now has stood con.
victed of using his official position for
private gain. In the new letters hs
shows himself up as having defrauded
his own friends in Maine and elsewhere
of perjuring himself concerning Tom
Scott; of asking Mr.. Fisher to stultify
himself by copying and forwarding as
