Troubles.
At meeting of miners of the Hook
ing Valley, held at Nelsonville, Sept
24th, Mr.. Alexander johnson, District
Secretary of the Miners Union, and
one Of the men evicted by the syndi-
cate during the strike of last y ear came
forward voluntarily. and addressing
the Thousands of miners there assem-
bled, said: ARTICLES are appearing in
the press all over the State of Ohio,
signed a MINER and purporting to be
written by miners of this valley, re-
fiectiug upon Gov. Hoadly for his
course toward US during the strike of
last year. These articles claim that by
his use of bayonets we were forced to
suacumb to capital, and that he has
since gloated over the fact that Adju
ia 1t General Finley has been able to
purchase coal for the State at a lower
rate than heretofore, etc. We miners
of the Hooking Valley are aware that
these articles ore written by one
Koehne, a traitor to our cause, and
whom we know how to estimate, but
our brethren in other parts of the State
do not know him as well as we do, and
may be led to believe that his misrep.
resentatiOns are the true sentiment of
the miners of the Hooking Valley. In
order to forever set at rest all efforts of
this kind to mislerd the public as to
our true sentiments, desire to put a
question to the miners of this meeting
viz: ALI those who favor an unqual-
fled endorsement of Gov, HOadly's
course as pursued toward the miners
of this Valley during the late strike
will say Aye HereupoR a shout of
sayes' arose from the thousands of
miners present that would almost wake
the dead. Mr.. johnson then said !:
All those opposed to this resolution
will say No. and one solitary voice,
supposed to be Kosne. who was in the
crowd, said No. Here, then, we
have these oppressed miners who are
said to have been drived to work at q
reduction, by the demands of capital
enforced by the bayonets of Gov.
Hoadly, publicly and in most out
spoken manner endorsing and thank
the Governor for his action in the
matter. Can anything be more con-
elusive than this vote of the very men
whom the Republican press claim are
opposed in toto to Governor Hoadly
and his party. These were the men
themselves who were compelled to &C
cept reduced wages after q prolonged
struggle, and their action should speak
in thunder tones to all laboring men
of the State. Mr.. johnson further
said that he had been nominated fol-
Representative on the Greenback tick
ct, of which party he is member, bu
he said: advise you to do as I in
tend to do, viz. vote for the candidat.
on the Democratic ticket, and don'i
vote for me-"

Republican Desperation In
Portage County.
seme Campaign Lies Squelched

Our esteemed and neighborly cotena-
porary, the Ravenna Republican, de-
votes q large share OF its editorial space
this week to a frantic appeal to its par
ty not to scratch the ticket. 1t seems
to be very much alarmed that any Re-
publican should so far forget himself
as to vote for q wounded Union soldier
like Capt. Wilcox. 1t graphically por
trays John Sherman's necessity, and
undertakes to make its readers believe
that an independent vote cast for
worthy neighbor for q county Office
endangers the safety of the country.
Certain friends of Mr.. Mr.Whittlesey have
circulated the report in various parts
of the county that Capt. Wilcox was a
defaulter to the government. What
nonsense, hasn't the Republican party
had time and opportunity to place the
Captain under arrest and try him in
the long years of unlimited power
since the war? 1t is true that just af-
ter the war Mr.. Wilcox held a Collect
orship in Virginia. 1t is also true that
he made the largest collection in the
u. s., except the Peoria, Ill, district,
bringing the amount collected in his
district from $500, 600 to over ST. 600, 600
in q single year. The Secretary of the
Treasury paid him the high compli.
ment of being the quickest collector to
settle his accounts in the UnitedStates.
More than this, an ex State Senator
from this county told the people oi
Freedom, last week, that Capt. Wilcox
was q common drunkard, and could
| always be found in saloons. To those
| who know the Democratic candidate
for Representative, such campaign
lies are easily understood. That Mr.,
Wilcox is not in favor of Prohibition
is no secret, but that his personal char
acter needs any vindication is absurd
The Republican candidate, Mr.. Whit
tlesey, writes q card in the Republican
lof this week advocating the restriction
Iof oleomargarine and bOgus..butter, ,ant
says that If elected he would hev'
Isome wholesome laws passed to pro
tect butter, or words to that effect. i
he was as well informed as a legislatO
should be, he would know that tn,
last Democratic legislature passed tn
most stringent laws preventing tn
sale of Oleomargarine, &c and unde
severe penalties prOhibitedtheir sale
butter. This law was passed largel
through the PERSONAL ExERTION o
CAPT. WILCOX, who went to COlum
bus, at his own expense, and used hi
utmost sndeavOrs to have it passed
and succeeded.
Now, we have only this to say, tina
all the candidates on the Democrat
ticket are capable, honest men, an
should either of them be SO fOrtunat
: as to be elected, (Of which event thsr
ought to be no mIsgivings on the pal
. of any Republican, this county bein
40 overwhelmingly anti. DemOcr8ti,
the county would be honOred in il
choice. Let every Democrat go to til
polls on Tuesday next and do h

concerned, his election is assured.

In the Fruit Department the exhibil
was very large, the tables being loaded
down with luxurious and luscious
specimens of the products of the or
chard and vineyard, largely due to the
increased interest which our Horticul
