About the Judicial Candidates.
JCDGE W. H FRAZIER.


OF the candidate for Circuit Judge
from this part of the district the Guern
sey Times says:
Judge VIM. Fl. Frazier was born in
Guernsey county and is up in the tfties.
He vas reared on d farm, studied law
and was admitted to the bar, prac-
ticing until he was elevated to the COM
mon pleas bench at Caldwell, Noble
county, where he now resides. He was
appointed about thirteen years ago by
the Governor to fill the vacancy on the
bench caused by the resignation OF
Judge NJ. NJ. Granger, and subsequently
elected and successfully reelected for
two terms, the last of which he is now
serving. He is a lawyer of research
and as a judge has always Striven to
render impartial and honest decisions.
JUDGE Z. B. WOODBURY..
OF the nominee from Ashtabula coun-
ty, the Ashtabula Sentinel says:
OF Judge Woodbury. much might be
said of mplimentary character, yet
Out little need be said as he is so well
and favOrably known in at least eight
of the thirteen counties now composing
this circuit court district. Of him We
may remark that he is native of Ash
tabula county, having been born at
Kelloggsville. something more than fifty
years ago. His life has been in our
midst. That he is a laborious aud pains
taking student we all know. He ranks
among the ablest of the common pleas
Judges of our State. His mind is clear
his judgment cool, and his powers of
weighing matters presented to him for
determination are such as are needed in
an eminent judge. He is devoid of those
prejudiceS which are sometimes met
with in those who occupy seats upon
the bench, while his patience in listen
ing to the trial of a case or the argu-
meDt of question of law, makes him
popular among the members of the bar.
lie is in the prime of lite and the full
flush of manhood, and his mental vigor
and and physical powers are such that
coupled with his ambition to make for
himself name on the bench, he will if
elected, add strength and dignity to the
court of which he will be- member.
JUDGE P. A. LAUBIE.
VI JuuSe Lduolc, tho SdIIoH county
Republican says:
No man whose name has been men
toned in connection with this bench.
possesses the confidence of the people
who know him to a greater extent than
does Judge Laubie. A profound and
learned lawyer. with ripe experience
Oh the bench, where he proved satisfac-
tory to all, lawyers. litigants, and every
body interested, ruling and deciding ca
ses with the utmost impartiality Of the
highest order ofintelligence, his services
on the bench has been highly creditable
TO him. and gives assurance that if call
ed to the circuit bench, from the very
irst day of its setting. would challenge
the respect and merit the confidence of
all the people of the circuit.

Democratic Rally at Louisville.

On Saturday evening the Hon. A. J. War>
nor visited Loydsville to give himself lift
Three Democratic nominees of our county
also attended, but were not assisted in,their
canvass by the gentlemans speech. First in
order we will refer to the crowd and then to
introduction. There were probably 600 people
present, fully two ffths of whom were Re-
publicans. Mr.. Warner was introduced in a
speech which reminded one of junior debat
ing class. The introduction was cheered
heartily by about fifty Democrats, who had
been, and still were, imbibing forty rod
whisky quite freely. The speaker and his
immediate progenitors were engaged in selling
Jersey lightning up to the time of the en-
forcemtnt of the Scott law. "a fellow feel-
ing makes US wOndrous kind" His remarks
consisted of stale jokes and newspaper cull>
ings, and were quite extended. The Hon.
Warner SCENE Quilted distressed at these ILL.,
timed and foolish ATTACKS upon the men he
had come to convince OF the benefits of a
change in the administration. He had certain
ly been handicapped. Shakespeare says,
faction is eloQuence, and the eyes of the
ignorant more learned than their ears The
Hon. gentleman made no great display of
eloquence, but attempted to lay the tariff
question before his hearers in a very genteel
way without abusing his political opponents,
Out apparently en0eavorlng TO prove the
Democratic party was the party and the only
party that would accomplish any reform in
that direction. His explanations were not
very lucid on many questions, and particular
ly on wool, which SO nearly concerns Belmont's
agriculturalists. We doubt if many of bis
auditors understood tariff better at the end
of his discourse than at its beginning. Repub-
licans, we are sure, went as they came, if not
convinced bY what the poet STYLES factions
are eloquent" He certainly used considera
BILE gesticulation. He spoke only q few
minutes on pensions, and said distilled spirits
would, for another generation at least, pay
them. Alas. that expression nearly ruined all,
in the estimation of those who indulge in the
flowing bowl. Some who may not have un.
derstood word of what he said before, prick>
ed up their ears at the word whisky as if they
had been asked to indulge, and many werel
plainly displeased with this plan who believe
