a RINGING CAMPAIGN.

The Ohio campaign, now under way, is
an important one, and it is being conducted
on grand basis, with big meetings and a
great deal of enthusiasm. The Democrats
want to wind it up with one OF the biggest
political demonstrations ever seen in our
country, and if they succeed with the meet
ing they are now arranging for Columbus
next month it will indeed be one to attract
attention throughout the country. 1t aims
to arouse the utmost enthusiasm of the Ohio
Democrats, and impress on them that the
fight in that State is a national and not
merely q local one, and that their brethren
of all other portions of the Union sympa-
thize with them and are willing to give
them aid and assistance.
The committee has, in consequence, iu
vited every Democratic Governor in the
Union to be present, nearly half of them to
assist the Buckeye Democrats The Gov
ernors will be reinforced by one hundred
and fifty brass bands
With all this to work on-twenty Demo-
cratic Governors, one hundred and fifty
bands and 100000 Democratic voters, there
will be monster parade and "old- time"
Democratic barbecue, with half dozen
platforms, from which as many Governors
can address the crowd at the same time.
We sincerely think the Republicans can't
beat this, and the meeting cannot fail to
have its effect on the people. 1t is folly to
underestimate the value of enthusiasm in a
political campaign. Solid arguments go a
long way, but brass bands, barbecues and
big meetings affect large element of the
voters and help to assure success. We are
glad to see IT,
