By thii meani much good may be done for the cause of Democracy and Reform. Get up lists at every Post-ofllce, and In ev ery school district, as the McArthur Enquirer will advocate the cause of the people, the farmers, mechanics and laboring men, against the back salary grabbers nnd the official t Meres who are eating out the substance of the working peoulc. Tuesday, October 14. The date at the head of thie avticle is election day the day on which the voters make choice of a Governor, State offi cers, members of the Legisla ture, and a full county ticket. We want to impress upon the minds of every voter the im portance of this election. A vote for Hon. William Allen for Governor is a vote to con demn Grant's approval of the salary grab, his appointment to high offices of those who were polluted with the Credit Mo bilier corruption. A vote for Harbison Lyle for Representa tive, and for George Lantz, for State Senator, is a vote in favor of sending to the United States Senate as pure and incorrupti ble a statesman ns Jvoai Tiiur MAN. It is necessary for us to speak specially of the individu al candidates on the county ticket, as each candidate is well and favorably known to the people of Vinton county. We are free to say that seldom have we had an opportunity of recommending to the people of ; this county a ticket more wor thy of their hearty support. It - can most truthfully be said of each and all that they are well , qualified for the duties, of the offices for which we have been " nominated ., respectively all men of experience, who will look after the interests of the taxpayers. . ... Be sure and go to the meeting at Hamdon, on. Thursday, October 9th. The Grand Fanner States man William Allen will be there to ulk to yon, Ji. WWJ JJJ CIA filial Coming to Meet his Old Friends !

COL. BOB HARLAN. United States Mail Agent. What they admit. The Cincinnati Times (Adininis- tion paper) says: "We may as well admit at the outstart that the Democracy have put into the field nu unusually strong ticket, and are working tor it with unusual determination. The Cincinnati Gazette (Admin istration paper) says: " The Democratic party will poll its full strength in Ohio. It is our impression that the ticket nomina ted in Columbus on the 6th, will receive more votes in proportion to the total number cast than were given to Horace Greeley." Taxes in Ohio. Under Republican rule, the amount of taxes levied on the peo ple of Ohio under State luws, is nearly three fold what it was when the Democrats held power the State. In other words, the amount of taxes now imposed, is about $24,000,000, In the lust year of Democratic rule It was less than $9,000,000. The Republican Legis latures have had power to stop this heavy taxation, but instead of do ing so, they have passed laws encourage it Mr. Stroko, Prosecuting Attor ney of Hamilton Co., should not hesitate in his duty. We have shown that Governor Notes took from the Treasury of Hamilton Co. nearly $15,000 without any warrant or law, while lie was rrobnto Judge. He should commence an action against Notes and his bondsmen at once. Cincinnati Enquirer. We hope the dcople of Vinton will not vote for Notes for Governor, because,if ho would unlawfully take the money belonging to the people of Hamilton county, ho would take money belonging to others. The Democratic County ticket tho best and strongest ever put in tho field, and every Democrat should arouse and work earnestly for its success. Every man on the ticket is well known as honest, in dustrious, and of good moral char, actcr. Vote for Owen T. Gunning, for Prosecuting Attorney, an experi enced lawyer, who thoroughly un derstands his business. The Marietta Register (Rep) is alarmed about Granges, thinks they are like the Know Nothing organ ization. The editor has no occa sion to get scared at his own shad ow. The Marietta Times (Dem.) in repelling the charges of the Regis ter, say 8: Instead of any Attempt on their part to curtail the liberty of the citizen and deprive him of his rights, they are manfully en gaged in battling with the giant monopolies of the land, for the rights of the people. They don't believe in Credit Mobilier and Tar iff Swindles, nor Land Grabs or Salary Grabs. It is an admitted fact that almost the entire Legisla tion of the country, National and State, since the close of the war, has been in the interest of the money sharks of the land, to the detriment of those large, respecta ble and pay all classes, the farmer, mechanic and laborer. This move ment, if we understand it correctly, is to counteract this legislation. and substitute such legislation tiiat it will not encroach upou the rights of any. The object the fanners is right and will ultimately triumph, if a government of the people is to bo perpetuated in this country. Be sure that you vote for Patrick Kelly, for Commissioner. The Republican Ring of Vinton county dare not attempt hold a meeting at this place in broad day light. They had a meeting an nounced for L. Danford on the 2Cth nit, but it was withdrawn, and a night meeting was announced for A. Hart for last Monday night. Hart was on hand, and told a few women and children at the Court House a vast amount of lies about Judge Thurrnan. His speech done the Democrats a great deal of good. Come again on some dark night Hart, and tell us why Grant wanted his salary increased to $137 per ilayj Vote for William W. Bclford, for Auditor. The Hamden Meeting. 1 lie meeting at llamucn, on Thursday, October 9, which will be addressed by Hon. William Allen, should be attended by every voter in the county. Democrats, pass the news around that Allen will speak at Haimlcn on tho 9th! Make a holiday, and go and hear tho Great Farmer Statesman the issues before tho people, Take all your friends with you It is expected that pnssengers will bo carried at half-fare on the Railroad. Vote for Harrison Lyle, for Rep rcscntativc. No Trading Votes. is The Republicans well know that they cannot elect a man on their ticket, unless they re ceive tho votes of Democrats. Do not trade votes with them. Listen not to their flattering stories. Ovku ono hundred men, sixty years old and upwards called on Hon. William Allen when bo was at Hamilton, Ohio. The $100,000 a year Grant organ of this county wants a dirty cam paign. Harrison Lyle and William W. Belford. The opposition organ of thiscom- munity, (its circulation in other communities being write small) lays great stress in its misrepresen tation and attacks on our candi dates for Representative, Harrison Lyle, and Auditor, William W. Bel ford; but these attacks and misrep resentations on tho part of the or gan aforesaid are prompted by per sonal and self-interested motives, which are apparent to everybody. The principal complaint against Mr. Lyle is that he is a hard-working man and attends to his own le gitimate business, and does not go about abusing his neighbors, the editor aforesaid organ beingfraid he will get tho votes of some Re publicans. The complaint against Mr. llel ford is almost the same, except Mr. Belford is so unfortunate as not to be proprietor of the Vinton Miaid establishment, nnd have tho hoiior of publishing an advertisementgiv ing notice to contractors that bids will be received for the erection tl an Infirmary Building in Vinton county, and then in connection with the honor assume the impudence to change the date in the advertise ment, making a year's difference in the time of the receiving of the bids,and then charging the county a large price for the publication of, the notice. It stands to tho credit of our candidates to have friends in the opposition. All that may be said bj' the said Republican orga;: will not mako the slightest change. , We therefore urge every Demo crat and every honest Republican to work with pcrservcranco nnd en ergy for the election of Mr. Lyle, Mr. Belford, and all others on our tickct,and thereby give salary grab bers and their tools to understand that Vinton county will not endorse corruption and dishonesty. $1,2945.50 Stolen. Thk grave cbarges made against Gen. Noras by the Cincinnati En quirer, for illegally drawing money from Hamilton county while Probate Judge, stands uncontradicted. The Enquirer gives da)' and date and sums of the amount illegally taken by Noyes at $1,294.50. The Noves' organs all over the State endorse this steal of their master. Now, to tho voters of Vinton county we would say: Do not vote for a man on the Noyks State, District or County Ticket, because all endorse the steal, and would encourage Noyes to steal more, should he be re-elected Governor, nnd have an opportunity, just as Grant and his Congress did after ho was re-elected last fall. Our Candidate for Representative. It is reported to us that Milt. Bat, the candidate on the $100,000- a-term extra Grant ticket, is using all manner of means to get Demo cratic votes. He has the impudence to go about and ask Democrats to vote for Notes or Delano by voting for him for Representative. No Democrat, who believes in the prin ciples of the Democratic party and who desires to witness the over- throw of the Salary Grabbers and thieves that have obtained power in this Government, can maintain his principles or party organization un less he votes for tho Democratic candidate for Representative. This is the office where principle is at stake. Haukiron Lyle, the peoples' can didate for Representative, is an in dustrious, hard-working machanic, and an intelligent and honest citi zen. All Democrats and honest Republicans, who desire to have reform in governmental afi'uirs will Htand together in the support of Mr. Lyle, the peoples' candidate. The election of Bat would be a vote in the Legislature for one of the grand rascals and Salary-grab defenders, Notes and Delano, for United States Senator. Democrats and Republicans, bear this in mind when you go to the polls. Does Milt Bay Endorse It? Notes charged and unlawfully took $1,294.50 for making tho re port of births and deaths for Ham ilton county, whiio lie was Probate Judge. Docs Milt Rat endoruo that unlawful stealing? Certainly. Will tho voters of Vinton county cast their ballots for Bat, when they know he supports dishonest men? Tub latest returns from the Maine election divide the new House into 108 Republicans, Democrats, and 5 Independ ents. Last year the House was divided in 128 Republicans, 21 Democrats, and 2 Independ ents. Thus it will be seen that the Democrats nre gaining ground even in that benighted, pine-clad region. Filthy Blackguard. We propose to treat the can didates on the opposition county licket as respectable gentlemen. Simply because a few of their fellow Republicans have placed them in nomination, it does not follow that we have undivided liberty to gather up low, vtilgar terms to apply when speaking of them ; and most certainly we have no disposition to do so. Far from it ! Common decency, self-respect, neighborly feeling and manly motives ought to prompt the mulish creature who has control of the opposition organ although that control is against the wishes of nine tenths of that party in the county, becanso he is naturally despised to adopt-, the same rule ; but he seems to lack the amenities of a gentleman in ev ery respect. The creature can not do otherwise than abuse or grossly misrepresent somebody. It is in the low brute and it must come out ; and if he can't throw it in the face of a Demo crat, he will sling it into the face of a friend. Now, it is well known by the voters in the coun- that the Democratic County licket is composed of gentle men whq are favorably known for honor, integrity and sobriety. 1 rom top to bottom no fault can be urged against a single man. Yet the sneaking creature goes to the cess-pool, drags out from the mire ol filthy epithets, all sorts of terms and applies them to candidates on our ticket old citizens of this county. It is humiliating in the extreme to know that without the slight est cause or reason respectable men are to be thus treated. Shame on such a creature! And shame to men who will thus indulge in it and endorse it. Go to the polls and vote early. Don't trade votes. very Filthy Blackguard. Gen. Cary at Zaleski. On last Thursday night the school house nt Zaleski was filled with an attentive audience, com posed mostly of working men, to hear Gen. S. F. Cary, who opened the campaign in Madison township with one of the ablest speeches ever made by this gifted and talented orator. Tho meeting was called to order by Solomon Shipley, one of the Advisory Committee of that township, and upon whose motion Okville Gl'nnixo was called to the chair. Gen. Gary spoke two and a half hours in his usual forcible style, and was attentively listened to throughout. His arguments and exposures of tho corruption, extruv- cgance and theiving of the present administration were unanswerable and elicited frequent outbursts of applause. All those who were present were supplied with food for reflection. We are sorry that every working man and larmer in this county did not hear the speech. a Half Time. Owing to the sus pension of the many banking hous es, which were organised under the Radical Administration, the work men along the line of tho Marietta and Cincinnati Railroad, and in the Car Shops at Zaleski, are now com polled to work but one-half of the time three days in a week. This order was received by the employ ces on Sunday night last, and took effect on Monday. We deeply re gret to see laboring men thrown out of employment at this season the year especially. Democrats of Vinton County. If you would have the Patriotic Statesman, A. G. Thurrnan, elected to the United States Senate, vote for Harrison Lyle, for Representa five. Lyle knows what you need, and will labor, if elected, for the good of all. See that every Demo crat votes against the man Bay, who represents the interests of the rich, and of corporations, and in dorses the Grant Salary Grabbers. COMMUNICATED. Information Wanted. The Vinton Record will confer favor upon some Republican voter by telling us what was the matter with T, M. Bay's oyes when came home from tho Legislature last spring. Be honest, Raper, and tell. REPUBLICANS. The Vinton Recoi'd, of Septcm teniber 25, 1873, said: ' "Occasionally we say something that makes some lliin-Hkinneu suo scriber mad. und lie conies in and stops his paper." How do the subscribers of the Vinton County Grant organ like be called "thin-skinned." ,"Thin BkinneduLscalb"'1'"' 1 1 COMMUNICATED. Rapcr says that he "don't know this E. R. Ogan." Ho knew enough of him to con nect his name with some of his dir ty lies. Now, "Johr,'' we propose to let you know, ns you said in your lust issue, that you were "going to seek for some more 'knowledge' who this E. R. Ogan is." He is a member of the Christian Union Church, an old resident of this county, strictly religious, ma king himself nn ornament in socie ty by his upright walk and godly conversation, respected by all the good people of every class,a man who speaks the truth and lies "not ; a man who delight in seeing bad per sons reform and often counsels them to forsake bad company and leave off their vile habits. If "John" is not beyond redemp tion, he would do well to give Mr. Ogan a call, and I well know that he would plead with "John" to leave off tlint vile und dirty habit of lying, and that, too, for the benefit A. O. K. COMMUNICATED. There were several Eagle Town ship Democrats in town last week. They feel under many obligations to the ring for getting Wat Pilcher to represent them in the County Convention. Vinton llecord. Rapcr, those "several Democrats" was "Bill" Yaple, the man whom slaughtered last fall to got votes for Kalerand Holland. Oh, "John!" you dirty, filthy liar ! EAGLE TOWNSHIP. COMMUNICATED. Last week's llecord contains a letter from tho pen of Marybus llamden Furnace. While Marybus, son-in-law of T. M. Bay, was wri ting his communication no doubt the remaining nine of the ten spo ken of was engaged in prayer as they all seem to be religious; if it were not so, they would havo published their letter in some political paper, and uot that Religious Journal "The Vinton Recon." $300,000,000. While the Administration papers of Ohio, are reminding their read ers of the " bloody war," of the old wornoustory of "rebel Democrats," will they say something about the $2,000,000 taken from the Treasury in the Salary Grab by a Republican Congress, a Repub'ican Senate and a Republican President? Tell them why tho President pardoned Hodge, who stole from the people $450,000. Tell them why it requires $300,000,000 to carry on the Gov ernment now, when before the war it only required $70,000,000. Spell it right out nnd let the people know something atiout these evils. They have had enough of " bloody war," and now want to put a stop to this "bloody extravagance" of the peo ples' money. Remember what Gen. Cary said in his speech at Zaleski, last Thursday night, and vote all these plunderers out of power. At a large Convention in Cin cinnati a few days ago, resolutions were adopted calling on Governor Notes to pay back to Hamilton county over twelvp hundred dollars illegally drawn from the county while Probate Judge, A failure to do so, the Prosecuting Attorney was directed to commence proceedings against li bail, MEDICINES. of ho to Jowaro of Counterfeits I JOB MOSES' nwSEkytiSS Art t(wWl COPWIfjrMI'm, lHiHanut Dnw'U ndmuarla til llu cmmUrSiili to makt grrattr maUl.
