Washington G. Fl. Register says:
1.-The Democratic party has emerged from the hght
in excellent plight
Certainly! In good old Democrat
ic plight. AS the prize-fghters would
say "a little groggy on its legs but
still in the ring Defeat and rout is
always excellent plight for the Demo-
cratic party, and for the country, too.
On the subject of Labor, very i'm
portant one, too, the Ohio State Jour-
nal says:
Mr.. Powderleys advice to workingmen is: ''Place
your grievances in proper hands and keep at your
work. If the advice followed, grievances, if
genuine would be redressed in nine out of ten,
and the and and misery induced by strikes
would be ayerted.'
Our country is cursed with too many
statesmen who feel thatt they are call
ed to teach the workingmen, and for
mulate great labor ideas. While Mr..
Powderly and other officers of the La
Dor organizations are giving advice to
their fellow workmen, there are al
ways lot of fellows not In official pO-
sition, who feel that the working-men
are just dying to receive advice and in.
struction from them The working
men in this region are as rule an in
telligent, upright set of men, and
many a man who seeks to advise them,
could be taught by them. Let the
workingman alone, Have no fears
that he cannot take care Of himself.
We ale glad to see the increasing ten
dency toward peaceable settlement Of
all dispmted points. Usually, the out
siders who seek to instruct the work
ingmen are iaw-peddlers, The Vinton
Record in referring to the Ironton
Registers suggestion that the Dow
Law Tax ought to be raised to five
hundred dollars, says:
LET the tax moved up gently to $500. The Re-
publican party ought to be able to the handwrit
ing the people are making"
Down here in jackson County,
where the Prohibitionists polied four
hundred votes, that handwriting is be-
ginning to loom up. But up in Vim
ton the suggestion has melancholy
sound, for the Prohibitionists had thir-
ty-eight votes last year, and precisely
the same this year
The Portsmouth Tribune says:
should the Presidential nominee come from the
East the second place could be given to no better
mau than Ex-Governor Foster. of Ohio He is one of
the strongest men i'll the West.
We have nothing to say against
Charles, save that he has been too
much interviewed. But while on this
subject, why not run the old ticket.
1t has been so much the custom as to
amount to a rule, that candidate
runs better in the second race than
the first, and there We're some mis-
takes made in the former campaign
that might be left out of the next.
For instance, we might have a good
stout man going about New York
with q club, hunting and staying Bur
chards, and various other improve
ments. At any rate. the old ticket
would go through with rush next
time. The old soldiers want Gen. Lo-
gan on that ticket when it is made
up, and there can be no stronger tick
ct made than the old enc. IF, how
ever, an Ohio man is to be put on the
ticket, it should be Sherman. He
could poll greater strength in New
York than any man we know of.
The Gallipolis Journal says:
Mrs II. c. Harris, of Harlem, has collected 5000
buttons in twenty years.
All, here is field open to the la
dies. Here is a chance to occupy the
time, fully, and make ones self
famous, by patient industry, and un-
assuming perseverance. Women are
