Year: 1865

When this country was at war with a for
eign nation, General Morgan promptly en-
listed under the banner of his country, and
on foreign soil did deeds that won forhim
promotion and the name Of brave and
chivarous officer At that time General
Cox was among the revilers of the then Ad-
ministration; he SympathiSod iCHh tie for
eign enemy And when General Morgan
reached home from abroad, where for years
he had been in a civil capacity and found
the institutions of our country assailed,
without hesitation he entered the service of
the United States and again did deeds that
won for him promotion and added to his
fame as a brave, humane and chivalrous Of
ticer This man is to day marshalng under
the banner OF the Constitution, all men who
revere that instrument, and all men who are
opposed to subordinatng White men to the
political dominance of the Black men, and
all men who favor equal taxation, aud all
men who are in favor of sustaining Presi
dent johnson in his work of reorganization,
and all men who are opposed to all manner
OF malleasance and corruption in Office. -
Certainly, an immense army Of civilians
should rally to sublime standard, carried
aloft by General so distinguished and SO
dauntless General Cox, too, was in the
late war; went into it because he thought
it would work the liberation and entran-
chisement of the Slaves. He is rallying to
his standard, as against General Morgan,
all who are in favor throwing the Uonstitii-
ton of the United States to one side, and
tahing for Their o6iciM and political guide
the Declaration of Iadependncc-the object
Of which being to elevate the Black men to
an equality with White men. On his ban
ner he carries no other device. The Black
man is the alpha and omega of his creed.


White men, can you hesitate under which
standare to enrol yourselves?


Notwithstanding President johnson ap-
pointed his Provisional Governors from men
who were Rebcls-notwithsta he has
not appointed civil officer for the South
from either New England or from the vicin-
ity Of Oberin-the machinery of civil gov
crnmont has moved forward with the pre-
cision and regularity of clock-work. And
the Schencks and Coxes and their tribe Of
small politicians, are running over the State,
urging the people to vote for then, because,
practically, they antagonize the President 5
reorganization policy This matter be as
sured, is fully understood at Washington,
and therefore, if General Cox shall succeed
on the second Tuesday of October, it will
be accepted as the declaration of Ohio
against the President 5 policy Of pacitication,
in favor of Negro Suffrage in the South
and protest against equality in taxation.


People Of Ohio! DO you want to send
such greeting to Washington through the
ballot-box? We cannot believe that you do,
and shall not believe it until you have sent
forward a greeting so derogatory to your
high character What, have you not had
enough of bitter and bloody strle?-have
you not had enough in the way Of taxation
and inequality in taxation?-to wish to have
inaugurated system which will perpctuate
this strife and render further taxation, with
its inequality, necessary? lfyou uwish these
things vote for General Cox & Co.


But, people of Ohio! if you wish that the
Constitution of the United States should
be maintained; if you desire to encourage
President johnson to persevere in his work
Of pacification; if you want to have an eff
fort made in behalf of equality in taxation;
if your pride of race is of that character as
to make you reluctant to extend your hand
to the black man and hail him as your po-
litical equal, and you wish that fact to be
understood by the President and his Cabi-
net and by Congress, vote for General Nor
gan and the entire Democratic Ticket Gen
cral Morgans election will carry through
out the whole country a cheering, healthy
political influence. That, and nothing less,
vii! be the effect Of his election. States
