Astounding Disclosures!
REUTER- INA COURT OF JUSTICE
He Acknowledges his Name to be
TISCH.

REBEN TISCH.
When we made the charge two weeks
ago. that the man calling himself RsUTER,
and now running for an important County
Office, was fugitive from Germany, and
that his name was REBENTIsCH, instead of
REUTER-, his friends generally, and his pup
py FIEcH, particularly, sent up howl of
deep Indignation against us, accusing us of
abusing lone of our Oldest and best citi-
zens." In fact, FITCH went So far as 70
say that no one ever whispered word
against the character of this greet and good
man until the advent of the Pilot. Let
US see whether our charge against him is
true or not, and if true, if lie is entitled to
even ONE vote in Manitowoc County.
In the Circuit Court, sitting in this vii
Iage on Tuesday last, the suit of REUTER-
as. SrRAUCH was pending. his was suit
for SANDER in which SrRoCn was supposed
to accuse REUTER- of having \ <
We spare him the pain of mentioning
he crime. REUTER- had SrRocH put in
jail for ten days, but the latter procured
bail. As we said before, the suit was
pending on Tuesday last, and Mr.. REUTER-
was called on as a witness in bis own be
half. To prove that his evidence was not
entitled to credit in Court of Justice, the
Counsel for STRAUCH, VIM. M. Nichols,
Esq, was permitted to ask REUTER- whether
his real name was CHAs. A. REUTER- or
CHAs A. REBENTIsCH. After great deal
OF hesitation, and under great excitement,
Mr.. REUTER- came boldly out before Judge
TAYLOR, the Jury, the crowd Of spectators,
and the whole Bar of the county. AND
ACKNOWLEDGED HIS NAME TO BE
REBENTI>CH before he arrived in this
counti Y.
What think YOU now, fellow Democrats
of the county, Of the Pilot, in exposing
this Wolf in Sleeps clothing? What
think you, now, of the wheel horse of the
Democracy, as his foolish followers have
called him! What think you, now, of this
man who Las held your offices for years
under an assumed name, and whose re
sponsibility to YOU during all this time
will prove to be worth not one cent. No
Court Of Law can hold his bOndsmen for
any bad act lie may have commtted.-
You have no security that your funds are
faithfully kept-you have no security that
a siHg'e Tax Receipt given by him for ;he
payment Of taxes, is vailed, or will be al
lowed in law. You have no security that
any Tax Certificate issued by him will
stand The test of a legal decision. His
name not being REUTER-, You have no secu.
rity al all.
Is it possible that, under this state Of
facts, this REUTER-, or REDENrIsCu, or what
other name he may be called, can receive
be that men have eyes ana cannot see?
is 1t possible that men have ears, and can
not heal : IS it possible that the tax pay
ers Of the county will not UURL this man
out Of office and power, as they would the
roboer who had fIched the last dollar
from their pockets. We warrant such
case never occurred in the United States
before, and when published throughout
the Union, will create most profound
sensation Let our readers look at it, and
observe its monstrosity.
Mr.. REUTER-, by his own confession in
open court, admits his name not to be
REUTER-hence every vote given for him
must be void. According to his own adj
mission, no man of that name exists in the
county.
