Fear of the Pale Faces has iever vet entered his taurine bosom. Tm. RICULAND Democracy turned out in imposing numbers ol Saturday, and Governor Ilumpton imadc an earn e0t appeal to his native county to achieve a gloi'ious victory. Richliand is all right. To-day's Elections, Indiana, Ohio and Iowa hold elec tions to-day. Only minor State officers and Cjongressme are elected. Three tickets are in the field in each State. T1he candidates for secretary of State are ais follows: lowa-Hull, Republi can ; WValker,Dlemocrat; Farnsworth, Nationail. 1Indiana-Moore, Republi can ; Shanklin, Democrat; James, Nat ional. Ohio--Barnes, itepulican; P'aige, D)emnocrat.; Itay, Greenbacker, The severest fhti over Congress men. In the present Congress Iowa has nine liepublicanis, hIdiania niine Rlepublicilms and four D)emocrats, and Ohio twelve Republicans and eight Democrats. The D)emnocrats expect to imake gais. Move Up in Solid Column, One would su1ppose from the serenity existing in the county that the election was over and the Democratic cand1f dates safely inducted into~ olflcc. It is a cheering fact that this complacency exists on account of a fixed b)elef that the county will assuredly roll up a heavy Democratic nmajority; but over contidence Is sometimes dangerous. The Democrats will inevitably sue .eed Itf they go to wvork to carry the election, but success is Impossible without work. Many Democrats are confident because they believe the Radicals will make no opposition. This Is a fond delusion. What mean the groups of Radical leaders on the street corners, the numerous meetings they are holding under the guise of religion, the boasts that are occasion ally heard from the miore comnmunica tive of the party? What does the experience of other counties teach? In Anderson the Radicals have held their convention. In' Marion, Lau rens, Chester, and we believe in other counties, they have made nominations. They have displayed the best of tactics, and adopted the only possible plan for success. Having for eight years spurned contemupluously every man that was decent, they now manifest great solicitudle to select an unexcep tionable ticket, and to effect their ostensible p)urpose they are nominat ing respectable Democrats In the hope that behind them asq a mask the old Radical party may go forth once more to plunder. The gentlemen nominat, ed hIteyoi'y instance -we have.heard of .have Indignantly spurned these over fures' But the Itiidicals ivIll go. on, ho'ping. at last..to find some man base enough to'servo as their,.tool, in their *crusade against truth, hono, itegr. ty and even civilization itself. Tilet Radicals of Fairfleld have lain low in order to allow the Democrats to make their nominations, in the vain hope that dissensions might arise. Disap pointed in this, it is extremely proba-1. ble that they will soon assemble a 1 rag-tag and bob-tail convention togeth or, and, as a last resort, nominate a ticket having same good men on it c interlarded with some of the cattle who have heretofore been the shining lights of Radicalism. This game is1 not going to work, because they N cannot get any person of self-respect to go along with their crowd. The twelve hundred and fty Democrats! who voted in the primary election are voluntarily bound by the most solemn pledge to support the Demo- I cratic nominations, and we believe that the few who have not enrolled I themselves would as soon lose their N right hand as to have anything to do with Radicalism. But it is the duty of the Democrats to make such a show i of strength and determination and y enthusiasm as to deter the Radicals from even making this attempt. With I tile Radical masses, political determi- c nation means a hurrah and an excite- ' inent; so that they may mistake quiet oil the part of Democrats for apathy I and want of interest, in which case they I will be emboldened to make an eilbrt. I But their nature is to be o1 the strong side. Let them therefore see the con fidence aind elthusiasil of the United Denocracy, and they will leave their self-constituted leaders to go to 'ruin alone. With the election less than a I month off, this is no time to mince matters. Whie the masses of the colored people should not be harshly dealt with, it is a matter of necessity ] to tell the old time Radical . leaders that they are playing a dangerous game in endeavoring to array race against race in order that they he6m selves may have a chance to steal a little more, and that they bad better lie low and keep dark. The day for mealy-mouthed measures with such Creatures is past. They must be - shown up iI their true colors as viola tors of the peace, fomenters of strife and elemles of tile State. Inl order to impress them with with a due appre henslon that we mean what we say, the Democrats must begin a lively, active, aggressive campaign, and if the enemy are flglting behind masked t batteries let their lurking places be hunted up. We must move oi from c now to the 5th of November in solid c column, so that Radicalism and bar barism ma be f6rever crushed out. t B IrES OF TIE DA Y.
