Friday morning items urge voters to approve the new constitution in the October 30 election. Notes on Hayes travel to Pennsylvania, local commentary from Cincinnati and Dubuque, and short items from Kirksville about schools, temperance sentiment, and education advocacy.
Governor Hayes has just been elected and Governor Allen, though defeated, is praised for personal purity energy and popular oratory. The interview with Hayes reveals courtesy and dignity as laboring under partisan bias, with reflections on Cary Sam and the Democratic banner for future prospects.
A Cincinnati Enquirer recounts Tom Corwin’s 19th century visit to the Western Reserve where his calculated oratory and jokes fell flat.

The Soldiers Home at Dayton later reported twelve hundred votes for Allen.
