the first place there has probably been no
increase of the Van Buren, majority Of
1886, though the vote has been more than
doubled.-In the next place the Van Blu
rcn majority is caused BY the votes Of
unnaturalized foreigners, who on their
arrival here are easily persuaded to sup
port the administration Of the govern
ment which receives them. The heavy
maorities in the canal counties { La Sale,
Will and Cook, made up Of the laborers
on the canal, will speak for the rest of
the state where public works are in prog
ress; while the heavy wing majorities in
the interior counties (the 10 Davies dis
trict for example) will show what are the
sentiments Of the intelligent and perma.
nent population. These things are all
understood at home; and we know that
the reform here, among those who can
be operated upon by reason and argu'
ment, will compare with the most en-.
lightened portions of our Union.

their idol should receive no opposition
at home. The friends of HARRISON and

little better than infdels and traitors, and
were denounced in the most unmeasured
terms. A ruthless prescription was COM
menced-their characters assailed--their
motives misrepresented, and war Of vi

is before the country. In 1899. Gen.

the present policy of our Government.

confines himself exclusively to the dis
charge Of his religious duties.--That
great advances have been made within the
last twelve years, towards the establish
ment Of a Monarchy, IN fact, if not in
name, in these United States, is now a
matter of history; and as a large stone,
when started from the top of mountain,

unless it can be efectually checked before
it is too late by the strong arm Of public

BR1eHroN, SUSSEX, .AprI Is. 1910.
DEAR BRoTHER.-I have been looking
forward in anticipation of seeing you in
America, and there end my days. But I
have been somewhat discouraged, by
seeing a speech in one of our papers,
made by one Of our Lords in the House
of Peers, that the United States had taken
some of the most decisive steps that
could be taken towards a Monarchical
Government. He states that the Con-
stitution of the United States guarantees
the control of the Standing Army to the
President, and that a movement has been
made to increase that army to 100000
men-not to meet foreign foe, for it is
time Of peace, therefore some other OBJ
iect must be in view. Another step is
the Sub-Treasury, as it is called, which
gives him the moneyed power. If these
are carried, it will be all that is necessa-
ry to give him sovereign control. 1t will
also open the door for England to come
at your specie. Dear brother, please an
swer in your next if these things are so:
for see no use in leaving one Monarch.
cal Government for another.
The Aristocrats here are rejoicing,
while the Republicans are mourning for
you. Surely the Americans are striving
for men and not for measures.

REFORM. The change is thus announc.
ed:
OUR FLAG! This week we have the
qualification of laying before our readers
the names of Gen. WILLIAM HENRY
HARRISON, and JOHN TYLER, as
the Peoples Candidates for President and
Vice President of the United States, in
the room of Martin Van Buren, and Rich
ard M. Johnson, who have departed this
life, in the columns Of our paper. That
we have been warm and ardent supper
ter of Gen. Jackson and Van Buren,, we
will not deny-yet, it was done upon an
honest conviction, that their policy of
government was right-that policy of
government has failed to produce that
peace, happiness, and prosperity to our
growing republic, that we ought to have
received at her hands, is also self evident.
So much for Mr. ]. w. White, Junior.
Having discharged his duty, the younger
Editor proceeds to ''defne the position"
of his Father in the following paragraph.
"We have received the LIST and I'd
numbers of new paper entitled the
"GEAUGA FREEMAN" editor by J. w
White, senr., at Chardon, Ohio. We
rejoice to have it in our power to show a.
mother change in favor Of the Hero of the
Thames, The freeman has at its mast
head the flag of Gen. Harrison and John
Tyler, in flying colors. 1t will be recol-
lected that our father has been an editor
for many years, and has fought many a
battle for Gen. Jackson and Van Buren,,
yet he has now taken stand upon the
wall of redemption, pleading the cause Of

no changes from Van Buren, to Harrison
in this town, take this method of inform
ing our felloY citizens that we can no lon
ger be regarded as friends 10 the admins

sufficient TO satisfy our former political
friends for the course we have adopted.
We do not believe national debt a ma
tional blessing. We do not believe the
price of labor in this free country should
be reduced to the standard prescribed by
despots in foreign countries. We DO not
believe in an exclusive metallic currency,
or standing army as safe protection in
a republican government; but on the con.
trary, that they will endanger the liberties
of our country. We do not believe in a
subtreasury, or in placing the sword and
purse in the handssof the executive, nor
that officers of the government should re-
ceive all the gold and silver, and the peo-
Piles paper.
We do believe VIM. Henry Harrison
