The Democratic party of Ohio is stronger to-day than at any pres ious time io its history - There no likelihood of the republi. cans having a contest on sheriff in this | county In the first place, they have no of illegal voting. They would only have a faint hope to follow. The result would likely make the democratic majority much larger. A coutest would certainly bring to light some of the corrupt methods employed at the last election, where money pur, chased votes by the wholesale and in which some very prominent and would. be-respectable citizens of this town could be implicated. The expenses of a con- fest would be no less than $10,000 and the county would have to font the greater portion. It would be an unpopular move, These are reasons why we consider that there will be no contest. In the event of such proceedings the democrats will be on deck to defend their candidates and some lively times can be expected, definite information NO CONTEST.
