The Tidal wave of Republican vic
tory la sweeping oi.
Ohio's idea of the "Ohio
was expressed on Tuesday.
idea'
Alas for poor sick Thurman In
will erow no belter rapidly.
If the next House of Kepresentative-
elects a President. Ohio's vote will be
cast for a Republican.
Iowa elects a solid Republican dele
ration to Congress, and the State ticfr
et by an increased majority over last
year.
Indiana has achieved glory enough
for one day, in electing a Republican
Legislature and laying out Dan Voor
heee.
Ohio buried the rag child on Tues
day. Senator Thurman will find it
convenient to be an "honest money"
man next year, we presume.
O'Connor Legislatures are good to
to insure Republican victories. Our
Democratic friends should stand the
O'Connor Roes Alexander Legislature.
The Democrats gerrymandered the
State shamefully, but the returns show
thev failed to gerrymander the iudg
ment and conscience of the people to
any great extent.
Theue were a good many Republi
can voters around in Belmont county
on Tuesday, but if they bad all turned
.ut the Democratic majority of lust
year would have been wiped out.
Me. S. J. Tilden and his copartners
are said to be figuring upon a cipher
(or future use, the trauslation of winch
no fellow can hud out: A simi.h
translation and practice of the moral
law mi!ht render the use of cipher
wholly unnecessary.
With most of Democratic statesmen
Democratic lawyers, and the Demo
eracy generally, nothing is constitu
tional but fraudulent voting, ballot
bx stutfin?. and Ku Klux iutimidiv
tion, and tberelore they squeal because
the elections were supervised in cut'
cinnati.
THE TRIUMPH.
The Republicans of Ohio have won a
magnificent victory. It is the triumph
of a great cause, and through that the
triumph of a great party which alone
upheld it. A Democratic majority in
1877 of over 20,000, won through the
npathyof Republicans, is wiped out and
liie Republican State ticket is elect
etl by a majority that cannot fall be
1 w 6,000, and may run up as high as
J 0.000. In its practical results it is im
ruense. The assault on the people's
currency and the national credit have
been beaten back all along the line
The rag money delusion is stamped ou
and tbe "Ohio idea" is no longer to
water the currency with irredeemable
paper.
This great victory throws athwart
the path of an organized and alarniinz
attack upon all property rights and so
cial order, the barrier of intelligence
and honest money. It beats back a
horde of desperate men who would
build up a party upon tbe principle of
the destruction of accumulated earn
ings, whether in the hands ot the rich
or poor, the laborer, the widow, the
orphan, or the capitalist. It re-estab
lishes our financial credit, and goes far
toward establishing a sound basis for
commercial and industrial enterprises.
Under the impulse of this triumph the
Republican party all over the country,
reunited and strong, will move for'
ward as of old, for the right, to new
. victory.
The local contest in tbia (18th) Dis
trict has resulted in H3 signal a victory
for Dr. UjKiegraff as that in the State,
insuring bis election by probably over
2500 majority. The infamous gerry-
mamler in the State has defeated it
pelf, aud iustead of the fourteen Con
gressmen they expected to elect they
will not probably get over ten, and i;i
'some ot the districts where their ma
jorities were 2,000 to 4,000, they barely
Bucceed in securing a Congressmen.
'Altogether, the people have cause to
rfjoice.
Conkling on the Taxation of
Bonds.
[From Senator Conkling's Saratoga Speech.]
What is the reason for striking at the
londs of the United States, or at those
who hold them! Mr. Lincoln said, and
we all thought during the war that
those who took the bonds and gave
their money to pay and leed our
soldiers were second in patriotism only
to the soldiers themselves. The chief
Objection now seems to be that the
bonds are not taxed. There are several
answers to this. In the first placc.they
were and are taxed, and taxed in ad
vance. The man who pays par in gold
lor a nana Deanng only four per cent.
Interest, and thus loans his money for
four-sevenths, or only a fraction more
than halt the legal and usual interest
in this State, pays for the exemption
from further taxation in advai.ee, and
piiys pretty largely for it. Every jear
he gets$i for the loan cf $100l If he
. loaned on bond and mortgage to his
neighbor he would get $7, or certainly
6, and perhaps he would be taxed on
the bond and mortgage and perhaps
he would not be taxed. So from tbe
beginning, exemption from taxation
entered into the rate of interest paid
and tBe price received for the bonds
taxation was adjusted and discounted
in tbe transaction. 8o that in substance
and result every bond, without excep
tion or escape, was and is taxed. To
t8X again or differently now, would be
to break the contract, just as much as
to refuse payment in whole or in part.
But it is said the State should be allow
ed to tax the bonds of the United
State". This position meets with
several obstacles. Let me speak of
ohp. Our fathers nut it into the Con
etitution that such bonds shoulu never
be taxfHl by the States. So the Sup
reme Gurt Biid when the first question
aros, before most of us were born, and
so the court has said ever since. Fol
lowing the Constitution, the acts of
Congress make exemption from tax
ation a part of the contract with every
man who holds a bond. Right or
wrong, there stands the Constitution
there it stood wbpn money must be had
to kep the fl ig flying In the field, and
the only way was to issue bonds and
borrow money on theno, or to slop
putt in ? down the rebellion, while Con
gress and ;after wards three quarters of
the States, parleyed and acted about
amending the Constitution, and by
thit time there would have been no
United States to issue bonds, no States
Iq tax them, and no armies to support.
OUR GREAT VICTORY!
OHIO REDEEMED!
A Republican Gain of More than
25,000 Over Last Year!
Nine Republican Congressmen
and Chances for More!
Cleveland, October 9. The full re
turns of Cuyaboxa county give Barnes
12,847; Paige. 8,646; Ray, 5,66'J; lown
send. 13.084: Poe. 7.276: Shone. 5.034.
Coixmbl-s, October 9. The Repub
lican Committee claim nine congress
men and the majority of the State from
r.000 to 10.000. The Democrats claim
eleven Congressmen.
Toledo, Oct, 9. Kurd's plurality in
Lucas county is 200. The Republicans
elect the Auditor and Clerk; Probate
Judge doubtful.
Columbus, Oct. 9. The following
Congressmen were elected: Butter
worth, Young, MacMahon, Keifer,
Lefever, Hill, ilurd, Finley, Converse,
Ewing, Dickey, Tseal, Atberton, ueo
les, McKinley, Monroe, Updegraff,
Garfield ana Townsend.
The result in the Thirteenth District
is in doubt. The Republicans claim
Van Vorhees. while the Democrat?
claim Miner. There ere ten Demo
crats and nine Republicans elected.
The Republicans claim the State by
from eitrht to ten thousand, while the
Democrats admit five thousand.
Columbus, O., October 9. At 1 :40 a.
m., ve have returns from 657 precincts,
from all counties in the State exoept
Mercer and Monroe, which show a net
Republican gain of 11,00. This indi
cates the election of the Republican
State ticket by 15,000.
The Republican majority on the
State and county ticket is estimated at
from 3,500 to 4,000. The majority for
Townsend for Congress and Ilinmnn
for County Clerk will probably bo con
siderable more.
Toledo, October 9, 1 a. m. From
Republican sources the indications are
thatKatlo, National, for Congress, will
have, in Lucas county, 400 over Hurd
and 700 over Luckey,Reputlican;Hurd
over l.uckey 550. The Republicans
claim the County Auditor and Clerk,
and concede the remainder of thecoun
ty ticket to Kotlo.
There seems to be no doubt of Hurd's
election to Congress by a majority of
1C0 or over.

The War on the National Banks.
The National Banking system is one
of the established institutions against
which the new Greenback party and
the degenerate Democrats who are
following in its wake are nowdirecting
their sharpest attacks. The mere men
tion of it in a convention of National is
like shaking a red rag in the race ot a
mad bull, and its effect in Democratic
gatherings is hardly less alarming.
The present demand for the destruc
tion of the National Banks is the
natural fruit of the intl-ition mania
Four years ago the same disease mani
fested itself in a different form, and
the same men who are now crying
"Down with the banks" were then
clamoring with equal zeal for "free
"banking " They were anxious then
to extend the system indefinitely, be
cause they believed that it would cause
an enormous bank-note inflation. Dis
appointediin that expectation, thev now
desire to destroy all the banks, because
they think that, in some mysterious
way which nobody hps ever been able
to explain, the withdrawal of the bank
curreacj will be followed by enormous
issues of legal tender notes.
There is but one mode of increasing
the volume of treenbacks actually in
circulation in this country, and that is
by increasing the expenditures of the
Government. As long as the Secretary
of the Treasury is not tailed upon to
pay out any more money in the course
of a fiscal year than he receives as
revenue, the new legal-tender notes, if
their issue should be authorized, would
lie idle in the Treasury vaults, unless
some of the wild schemes for the free
distribution of the "flat" money should
be adopted. We assume that any
party that may get into power within
the next ten years will meet with in
superable obstacles to the payment of
the bonds oi ine united Mates in any
thing but coin. Economy in the pub
lie expenditures.then, which is one of
the grounds upon which the Demo
cratic party dishonestly asks the coun
try to trust it, and greenback (inflation
are utterly incompatible. Nor would
the withdrawal of the National bank
notes facilitate the issue of new legal
tenders. On the other hand it would
cause the sharpest kind of contraction.
The destruction of the bank circulation
would hot increase the payments which
the Government would have to make,
while it would reduce by about one
half the volume of the paper currency
in which taxes could be paid.
But the IntlUiomsts say that It Is a
part of their scheme to substitute green
backs for the National bank notes.
How? Legal tender notes will not flow
into the circulation of theirown accord.
They must be paid out for something,
luliss they are to be given away or
lent to tramps withoutsecurity. There
never wasiu the u nited States an Intit
tion of paper money issued by the Gov
ernment except in times of foreign or
lomestic wtr, and when the public ex
penditures exceeded the receipts. It
is cue thing to "propose" to substitute
greenbacks lor tbe bank currency, but
it is another and quite a different thing
to do it. The National B inking syst m
is now organized furnishes the saft St,
mast convenient and most elastic paper
currency this country has ever bad.
ihe bauk taper is capable of almost
unlimited ex pun-ion whenever the
"demands of trade," about which the
inditionisls talk so much, make them
8 lives felt, and of a corresponding c n
tr ctiooiu times ot business stagnation.
Its volume does not even depend upon
the amount of coin which the banks
may have in their vaults, as does thit
of tbe circulation of the Bank of Eug
Imil, and it is equally adapted to the
needs of the country in times of sus
pension and during periods of specie
payments.
The working people of the United
States have a more immediate interest
in the maintenance of a sound bank
ing system than any other class. The
banks set capital in motion that would
otherwise remain idle, and thus direct
ly make possible the employment of
hundred of thousands of men who
would .otherwise find no work. This
fact was recognized even by tbe infla
tionists four years ago, when they de
clared that the business of the West
and Sooth was suift;ring for the want
of banking facilities. It would be ad
mitted by the same men now if they
werd nonest witn the peopiewhom
they are leading.
"THIS IS A DAYS WORK."
i
was a happy illustration ot Mr.
Hoar, of Massacnusetts, before an audi
ence of farmers when he said be iro-
posed to make work easy hereafter by
placing a board on the fence with the
inscription "This is a day's work,"and
toldiug his arms. This fairly exposes
the absurdity of the fiat money theory.
It would surely be as feasible to create
a day's work by saying "This is a day's
work" as to create a dollar out of noth
ing by saying of a piece of paper "This
is it uunar. 1'eopie seem to lorget that
money is the measure of value. Coin
was chosen as the measure of value-
that is to say,. gold and silver, because
it cost, in labor a dollar or thereabout
to produce the material that is contain
ea in a dollar, t or this reason thfwp
metals were selected. It could have
been lor no other reason". Mechanical
ly it would have been no more diffi
cult to coin iron monev thmi inmin
gold and silver money, but as it costs
more to produce gold and silver than
it does to produce iron, the former were
elected rs the standard of valups

and it can not represent the monev nf

thing out of nothing. He can not
mane a yard stick out of a niece of wood
one inch square. Congress might pass
a law declaring one inch a yard, but
that would not make one inch thirtv

as a yaru oi ciotn measured by thirty

Ihe intrinsic value of everv article is

those values are determined. To

standard would seem to diminish the
cost, out it would not. II we should
write this article tor so much ner line.
we would receive more for it nominal
ly in cneap money than in coin, but
tne Drain work and time employed in
producing the article would remain
the same, bo it would be with refer
ence to all kinds of labor. Say that i
iubu iuu a pi;ir 01 norses can plow an
acre of ground in a day. The value ol
that labor measured in coin is fonr rinl
lars. To earn that required ten hours
wont, suppose that work should be
paid for in paper worth fifty cents on
tne dollar in coin, tho measure of that
labor would be eight dollars In naner
That would be worth to the laborer, to
tne plowman, lour dollars in coin. The
diHereuce would be the constant fluc
tuation or tne paper in value. It might
be worth eight dollars in trade one day
and only six the next. The time
necessary to perform the labor, how'
ever, would not change. It would re
quire one man, two horses, and ten
hours' time t do the work. That
wouici not nuctuate; but the wages, if
paid in nat paper, would fluctuate.
If the tint system of finance could be
applied to labor we could all live with
out v.01 k. We could say "jet paper be
prouueeu, ihi editorial be written, let
news be gathered ou the wings of the
winu, iei ine snr-ets be printed by

arms and take things easy. Then we
should have hat newspapers, and it
would lie quite as practicable to nrn.
duce newspapers out of nothing, or to
periorm laoor without work, as to pro
duce money out of nothing.
It ought not to require argument to
uemonbiraie mis plain fuel, but it
seems to be necessary to argue it, and
even 10 voie upon 11.
liut it would be quite as sensible lo
go iuto a field aud say "This is a day's

say of a piece of paper which hHs no
