Holmes County farmer. [volume] (Millersburg, Ohio) 1857-1926, 1860-04-19

AT hast we know the conditions of the
peace between Morocco and Spain. Their
most important feature is, that they do
not include the cession of Tetuan, but on
ly that of barren tract of land al oin-
ing Ceuta. Morocco will pay 1000, 600
of piastres indemnity, sum out of pro-
portion to the real expenses of Spain
caused 10y this war.
The grounds on which the Commission
er of Patents granted an extension to the
Morse patent of 1916, are that the invcn-
ton was original, novel, useful and pat
entable; that it was valuable and impor-
tant to the public, and that the inventor
had not been adequately rcnumcrated for
his time, ingenuity and expense in per
iccting it.
A young man named Lamb, near La
porte, Indiana, was last week buried alive
in a well. lie had been hired to remove
the curbing from well, which was eighty
feet deep, and while at work the curb
gave way, and the sand buried him to
the depth Of fourteen feet. The neighbors
gathered as soon as possible; but it was
twenty-seven hours before his dead body
was recovered.

ways and means to put stop to the sale
of Intoxicating liquors. To this end pc
ttions were sent in by the hupdred, and
among the rest long one was sent from

You made the Supreme Court Of Ohio;
you made the present State Legislature.
The Judges Of the Court are all of your
party, and n large majority OF the Legis-
ature are of the same faith. You are
their constitucncy-you are responsible
for the laws made by the one and for the
misinterprctation Of laws by the other.
The Legislature voted that mulattocs are
white men; that men having African blood
in their veins are "lchite male citizens II
.Me United Siatcs," and your Supreme
Court decided the same thing. Now,
don't you feel ashamed Of your public
,ervants-thc Supreme Court and the
State Legislature? How do you like vo-
ting with niggers? Ia the language Of
the North- UeSt, aint you pleased to think
you are no better than nigger? Are
you delighted with the prospect of having
mulatto onicers?-because, if mulatto
may pote he may be yoted for. Won't it
have fine effect, in the future, when, by
this decision and legislation, "a chalk in
de cyo"--"tar on dc hccl"--"gemman"
may take his scat in the Legislature, OF
sit in the Gubernatorial chair? Don't it
tickle you all over when you think how
the free darkes of the South will come
pouring into the State in order that they
may have the privilege of voting? OF
course it tickles you, for they will "every
mothers son Of them" vote your ticket
Don't you "rejoice with exceeding great
10y" when you recollect that you helped
to put the men into office who bro't about
such glorious state Of things? 1on are
no better than nggcr, for the tribunals
that you yourselves constituted have said
it, Aint you glad you voted the Repub-
lican ticket? Don't you know your stump
ers were lying when they told you that the
Republican party was "the white man 5
party?" Didn't you fool the Democrats
when You declared yourselves in favor OF
"lree white labor" while you were, at the
same time, intending to make Il decision
that would invite the half million free
| blacks in the South to make Ohio THEN
home? Ant you glad that you have sue.
ccodcd in making niger equality II law o
the State? Don't your souls heavc will
emmotions too big for utterancc when yor
consider that you have removed every oh.
staclc in the way of amalgamation? Gour
agcnts--tho Supreme Court, and the Leg
iSlaturo have done as you desired them to
do and you are satisfied OF course you
will continue tovote the Republican ticket

Practical Republicans mn.

In Cleveland the Republican leaders
carry out the principles they profcSs.--
They allow negro children to sit side by
side with white children in their schools.
Upon objection being made to this con
dition Of things, one Of the members OF
the Board of Education said:
81 tnouH rather my title qiH houH SIT BESIDE a
COZ onED Girl than by n FRlIILE HEADED
IRISH OR BARE IlEELED DUTCH ONE ~
That is what we call showing thcil
faith by their works-but when election
time draws nigh, these same Republican
leaders will profess to be the only true
friends of the "ki2zle headed Irish and
bare hcelcd Dutch"

as in most other things.
