g Nasons and Politics.

Mr.. EDTToa:--gf person wants to
get the news, he must certainly read the
newspapers. | have watched the move
merits of the leading politicians of this
place for a few weeks past, pretty closely,
and have heard observations about the
particular causes which had produced GER
tain results, but had never learned the
fact that the Masonic Order here had
:.been charged with collusion to favor or
defeat certain local candidates." till l saw
the JOURNAL of the gath inst,
In that paper [ discover that somebody
has undertaken defense (ostensibly) of
the Order, and assures the public that
there is no foundation whatever for such
aa imputation," and to convince us that
there was no "collusion" here, refers to
State and National politics, and to Eng
lish Statesmen, and then gravely con-
cludes that Masons do not combine or
collude in politics."
Now, do not believe that there is a
single individual in this place, this town
or vicinity, who had seriously entertained
the thought that the Masons in this vii
laee, as an Order, had seen fit to consult
upon the matter in any form, or to act in
concert, till the article from Mr. % Ooe Of
Them" appeared in the Journal. But
for myself, adopting the doctrine that "a
guilty conscience needs no accuser," [ am
now irresistibly led to the conclusion that
/" there is something rotten in Denmark"
Otherwise, why this fiutterings May be

the Order here, and that this defense,
whether ostensible, or in good faith, WAS
written for that purpose. May be he
would call our attention to tie fact that
great men in this country, and that Eng

have been, Masons-that the article
amounts to nothing more or less than an

local, and his defense general.
But can refer my friend to a time in
our country's history, when Masonry acas
attest Ct political soundness-When can
didatcs for Governors and other officers
sof State were either Masonic or Anti-
-Nasonic. 1t was soon after the time that
one VIM. Morgan very suddenly 'aisap-
peared. Masonry and Anti Masonry was
the theme of political newspapers. In
short, there were no other political news
papers printed in several of the States.
But why does not Mr.. " One Of Them
give us his real names If he is a respon.
,sible man--one whose character for truth
and veracity stands unimpeached before
the public. his article would have been of
binding force. That there are men in the
| Order who are to be believed under ordi-
nary whose characters are
just as good. and no better than those
out of it, is generally conceded. But that
the word of any man must be taken be-
cauee he as Moson, is certainly pretty
poor logic, since the fact is everywhere
known that the Masons, as body, are
no more honest, no more moral, no more
worthy of confidence and patronage, than
that portion of community who are out
side this secret Order; and if we are al
lowed logical conclusions. knowing The
fact that Masons are saoorn to secresy in
relation to it's transactions, we must GER
tainly conclude that, even the best of them
would evade direct answers, and, perhaps,
deny direct charge; and, when We
come to the political test, that a Mason
will, urlder ordinary circumstances, sup
port q brother Mason IN preference to ar
outsider, is just as natural as it is to con
clude that water will run down an iuclinec
plain. B.

THE Democrat office secured the coun-
ty printing by bidding $4,000, while the
bid of the Transcript was 1876, 00.-
Thereupon the Democratlabors to make
political capital by showing how the Re
publican press tried to gouge $4,000
out of the County. This would do were
it net a fact that it is worth 5000 to do
the printing. We sppreheRd the Demo
orat will not get large nett gain, pecu-
niarily or politically by that bid.

Y
those, who, BY these first 'npheavingss} e :
the popular spirit, hare beer. carried into
responsible position.
Let HE entreat our Republican lcgisla- i
tors elect, never to forget that they have
not been elected by strict party vote; that
they are indeed expected. to stand true to
their party, but only so long as the party
is true to the cause of liberty and honesty.
Let them nevor forget that the trust I'M
posed upon them is Of unusual impor-
lance; upon tkeir shoulders rests the des-
TIMES of e State whose reputation is faint
ed by venal legislatures and adminis,a-
lions and whose credit is ruined by legis-
Iative blunders. let them never forget
that in a society organized like ours, sta
bility of legislation is the principal safe
guard of public credit, and that whatev
er changes in our laws may bo desirable
vested rights and existing contracts must
be relgiousiy respected. Let them never
| forget that true economy does not consist
in close parsimony alone, but in wise
and appropriate application of the mon
eys expended. Let orr Legislators and
| county officers bear in mind that it may
be easy to gain the confidence of the peo-
! pie. but difficult to preserve il, and that
/ they will be held responsible for the next
election, In one word, let this celebra-
ten of one of the mos. surprising success
es ever achieved be soleraized by deep
or consciousness of our duties and respon-
| sibilities.
! A last word my friends. | cannot de-
ny al expression to the feeling Of joy With
which / am beholding sight, for which
nay heart has 1onged for years and years.
/ 1t is, the honest and liberty loving Ger
man joining hands with the honest and
liberty loving American. Look over this
broad land; at Philadelphia, Cincinnati,
Chicago, st. Louis, aye, and Milwaukee,

Americans erowding around the banner
of human liberty! See there the old
Germaric idea showing its true identity
in all the branches of the good old Ger
manic stock Let the bond of this wed

hearts your principles are the same-why
should you notoe true toeach other? Let
this alliance spread and flourish all over
this State, all over this Repubic---and
the cause of liberty will triumph and
our honor will be safe.
