its Editor and Workmen to be sunk
in the Bottom of Hell!-Printing
Office to be Mobbed !"-Villainy
Reigns!
Just after the Constitutionalist had been cir
culated through town, on last week, two gentle.
men y with others to back them, came to the
printing Office and enquired for the editor; they
were informed by the joarneymen that he was
in town. These two specimens Of the Black Re-
publican party, then made known their mission,
by declaring that the " COnstitutionalist con-
tained several damn lies on Jim Lane, and it
had 10 be stopped" They announced that they
we're " not alone, but that they had been sent
and were backed in the matter" They came
as Jim Lane directs, with war in their hearts.
and arms in their bosoms." They became quite
wrathy, and declared that " if any more articles
appeared in this paper, that they knew to be
damn lies, they would sink it and all connected
with 1t into the bottom Of hell.
] After talking like they were lords Of all man
kind, they left the Office. Shortly after dark,
crowd Of these scamps made Preparations to pro-
coed to the printing Office to throw Il into the
river. They were, however, stopped by some Of
the sensible and moderate Republicans, who
fOrewarned them not to attempt the destruction
Of the Office. Our readers will remember that
about twelve months since Jim Lane came into
the territory with an army gathered up in the
northern cities, the very offscouEings Of those
cities, composed of loafers and blaek-legs. As
soon as they reached the territory they commen-
ced stealing horses, the destruction of property,
and the lowest deeds Of villainy. That this ar
my was filed with thieves and rzscals, We can
prove from Black Republican witnesses new liv-
ing in Brown County, and numbers Of them are
now there, and honest men of the Republican
party are now in fear Of losing their property By
these things.
Numbers of these scape-g races have found
their way in and around Doniphan, and they can
be seen loafng around the streets, but seldom
or never at work, and if they do not make
support BY the slight of hand when honest men
are asleep, We are at loss to account for the
way they keep alive. These low flung scamps
are always on hand to do the dirty work Of Jim
Lane, and he has but TO bid and like slaves thsy
obey the commands Of their master. They arc
poor ignorant dupes, dsvoid Of principle, hangers
en- around doggeries, disturbers Of the quiet OF
the community, triaiRg Yagabonds, colplsss
nincompoops and unworthy to associate with gen
tlemen. These are the men who threaten to
sink US, our paper ami workmen into the bot
tom Of hell, if we dare write about their great
mogul. We shall continue to write Of Lane
whenever the occasion shall demand it, speak
our sentiments without fear or reservation.
Whenever any Of these Black Republicans,
black hearted, black negro stealing rascals wish
TO throw the Constitutionalist Office into theFiY
CT, they can come on. The fools are very much
mistaken if they suppose we are TO be intimidG.
ted from speaking our sentiments, and the press
muzzled by such scamps as they.
Now, some of Lanes friends or servants have
beasted that if any more articles appeared IN
this paper about Jim Lane, the C6nstitutionalist
Office shall be pitched into the river Or be iSank
into the bottom of hell" We win continue vii
ting about Lane so long as he continues to mako
inaammatory speeches, and disturbs the peace
Of the country by advocating resistanes 70 tho
laws. Now, the dirty puppies will have 10 dss-
troy our Office or lie. They can take either al
tentative. "sink or swim, live or die, survive
or perish" We viii speak our sentiments 90 long
as we remain an editOr.-DoniphaR ConstitutiaH-
