The Verdict of Ohio Has Done for tIae Demo

The Verdict of Ohio Has Done for tIae Demo
cratic Candidate.
New York sun (Dem9
Well, Ohio performs for Grover Cleveland in
1884 the same Office which North Carolina per
formed for Horace Greeley in 1872. 1t kills him
as a candidate. The Democracy Will not have
Grover Cleveland for President. They would
not have Greeley, not alone because he did not
represent the ideas of Democracy, but still more
because he was not fit to be President. For the
same high and r~esistless reasons they will not
have Grover Cleveland now. He does not rep
resent the ideas of Democracy and he is not fit
to be President Yet in one most important
respect the difference is enormous be
tween these two candidates, both imposed
upon the Democracy by revolving Republican
factions. Horace Greeley was a man of vast
intelligence and knowledge, of spotless personal
character and noble, unselfish motives. Grover
Cleveland is a man tattooed Will shane, base
and degraded in his personal relations, living
only for himself and his own selfish and egotistic
ends, profoundly ignorant and of barren, com
mon-place mind. But Ohio ends Cleveland, as
North Carolina ended Greeley; and in the pres
emit case, as in the former, the great regret is
over the madness and the catastrophe of the
Democracy. The unfit and deluded candidate
deserves his fate, but the wise and patriotic must
sorrow at the calamity of the party, for it is the
calamity Of the country. Yet, Notwithstanding
this disaster, the central principle of Demoo-
racy, the reduction of government to the mini
mum and the elevation of the individual citizen
to the maximum, lives uninpaired, resplendent
with the beauty of immortal truth.

Half a Million Missing.

SAN Francisco, Oct 19.-The failure of A. w.
Bowman the capitalist real estate broker, an
nounced on Thursday. will probably be much
more serious than first supposed. 1t is
now pretty well established that the
misrepresentation of moneys placed in his
hands for investment will reach half a million
dollars. One of the heaviest losers will, it is
said, be Mrs. Harry Bowie, at present in Europe.
She was immensely wealthy in her own right
and Bowman had absolute charge of her affairs.
He was a heavy borrower from the Bank of
California, but it is believed the bank is fully
secured. 1t is difficult to get at the facts. as in
terested parties refuse to say anything until the
assignee has made his settlement. Bowman,
who is ill in bed, has been placed under arrest.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
NEW Ross, Oct 18.-The Republican rally
here to-day was a very gratifying success, so far
as numbers and patriotic feeling were concerned,
and the speaker, Hon. Thomas H. Nelson, was
greeted by a very large crowd, who listened attent
lively to his address. But the entire town was
in mourning, not outwardly alone, but in the hearts
of all a feeling of profound sadness was evident.
All the emblems carried in the large parade, the
flags displayed from the houses, and the decora-
tons on the speakers stand, were heavily draped
with mourning. The sad cause of this unusual,
probably unique, feature of this rally was the
sudden and terrible death of Mr.. George T. Dor
sey, of this place, one of Montgomery county's
most prominent and influential men. He was
in attendance at the Republican rally at Ladoga
yesterday, when Governor Porter addressed a
large crowd. Returning in his carriage, he had
reached New Ross, and, passing friends in an
other carriage, he rose, waved his hat and
shouted, Three cheers for Blaine, he being a
stanch Republican. These were the last words
he uttered, for at that moment his horses SHE'D,
the carriage was overturned, and he was instant
ly killed. The entire community was most deep
ly affected, and though the rally went on as adj
citizens and friends of Mr.. Dorsey, meeting and
clasping hands, while tears stood in their eyes.
Thu speaker of the day dwelt at length upon
the tragedy, eulogizing the deceased and tender
ing his heartfelt sympathy.

the man who, to crafty his base passions, be-
comes the betrayer and corrupter Of womanhood,
is not to be honored or trusted in any sphere of
life. We call upon the religious press TO give a
loud echo to such teaching, and we ask every
voter. who thinks of voting for Mr.. Cleveland,
and who, with the light now before him, cannot
do so ignorantly, to consider well what he is pro-
posing TO do. and what would be the moral effect
of knowingly electing sach a man to the presi-
dency.
1t would be useless to waste words on those
thick-and-thin Democrats who, when they go to
the ballot-boX, leave their conscience at home,
and always vote the party ticket, asking no ques-
ton as to the character of the candidate. There
are, however, many Democrats who mean to
keep a good conscience toward God and man;
and we earnestly suggest that in the Democratic
candidate for President they are confronted by
facts which sternly demand that they should be
governed by the higher law of purity and
righteousness.
Those independent Republicans who, on the
basis of a moral reason, refused to support the
Republican ticket, and who, in ignorance Of the
private record of Mr.. Cleveland, committed
themselves to his support, must, in order to pre-
serve the least show Of consistency, decline to
vote for him. To ignore the facts in the grave
and serious charge against him is willfully to
shut ones eyes to the truth. 10 pretend that
this charge, considered in application to his can
didacy, is a matter Of no consequence, is to set
up a most debasing standard of morals, and viz
tually say to public men that a good or bad prl-
vate character will not be considered by the
people in casting their votes. To condone the
offense on the assumption of sincere repentance,
without a particle of proof, is simply to encour-
age its repetition by others, if not by the offend
er himself. We do not see how independent
Republicans, upon their own showing, can, by
any possibility, vote for Cleveland. They may
do it if they will; but theirs is not the kind of
independent Republicanism in which we believe.
We cannot understand how it can look at itself
in its own mirror unerimsoned by the blush Of

Cassius N. Clay Ventures a Few Predictions
Based on the Result in Ohio.
New York Special.
Cassius NJ. Clay, in a letter to the New York
Sun, states the points as to the Ohio election
very forcibly. The letter is as follows.
Sir-The victory of the Republicans in Ohio yes
terday settles the presidential election. The same
vital issues which have tided Maine and Ohio to vic
tory, assure us that the great Republic will not go
down IN death before the shotgun policy of the Bour-
bon Nihiiists of the solid South. The attempt of the
worshipers OF force and fraud to inaugurate the
Southern tactics in the free North by bands of i'm
ported roughs, and the Imprisonment of over one
Hundred blacks by criminal Bourbon police. and other
crimes, show the American people what they would
have to bear should the Nihilists get national control
1t remains row for every lover of popular govern
humiliation of the pseudo Democracy. The solid
South is an eternal menace to liberty and civilization.
The Bourbon Nihilistic Democracy must perish for
ever. q. 81. CLAY.
CINCINNATI, Oct. Is.
The Sun says:
We agree with General Clay that the result of the
Ohio election virtually settles the question Of the
presidential contest. Its moral effect is very great
indeed.
"RhOdy' Shiel and the Telegraph Strike.
Jsyhawker, in Cincinnati Enquirer.
Railroad and telegraph corporations are not
generally owned in this State, and Rhody has
sense enough to know that the nonresident
monopoly is never popular, even with the man it
employs; and being an Irishman, and always
ready for a ruction OF a strike, any little revolt
has always been to his hand; and, when any
such thing was in sight, Rhody was always
ready to foment and encourage it. AS his bust
ness required him to do a large amount of tele-
graphing, and as he had TO pay good round prices
fer it, it was only natural that he should look
upon Mr.. Gould as a grasping monopolist who
had no legal rights that any man was bound to
respect. Something over a year ago the tele-
graph operators on Mr. Gould's lines indulged in
a little strike; and the most blatant yelper in
favor Of the strikers was Mr.. ShieL. But since
that time he has found out that it is almighty
dangerous for a man to have lived at all If he
goes into politics, for the reason that, about a
year before tha strike, he had Joined with other
business men at the Union S~tockyards in asking
tho removal of the operator there, who gave
more attention to pool and other amusements in
the adjacent beer stores than he did to his duties
as operator. But the mistake Mr.. Shiel made
was in not having killed the man, instead of ask
ing for h~isdismissal, as the said operator has now
turned up, and claims that Mr.. Shiel was just
tearing his clothes off in aiding Mr.. Gould to
successfully resist the strike.
