| Inc committee, therefore, REJECT tue eH-
tire vote thus returned from this precinct"
Was there ever such farce enacted AZ
played by these tools of officials in this
precinct? In downright meanness and
villainy, Kansas border ru(,ianism is fairly
eclipsed. All over the Territory it appears
that the friends of this flying Co..
ernment official, were organized and
fully determined to elect him regardless
of justice or right. Can it be possible,
after this exposure Of their infamous pro.
ceedings, that the citizens Of Dakota will
tolerate their presence in the Territory as
officials? Will they not brand them like
Cain, that they may 60 forth without being
cut down for their ou,rages upon the peo.
pie and the ballot'box?
We notice that many Of the friends Of
these vagrant officials, like rats abandon
ing sinking ship, are already heaping
insults and abuses upon those old associ-
ates and co.workers of theirs; bu: We
warn the people Of Dakota, that they arc
all guilty alike, but see the ship is sinking
and want to escape from it. We advise
you to let them all sink together in the
sea of oblivion. That is the most effec.
tive, as we'll as nerciful way to dispose
Of them.
We are glad that Gen. Todd has got his
seat, for we know him to be honest, and
then he is not one of the flying official
sort. He is stationary, and you know
where to find him. He is worthy, talented
and efficient; good sound Democrat, and
we believe. you will ever have reason to
congratulate yourselves that DR.. Jayne, of
Spring gieli, and his friends and tools, did
not succeed iu their villainous scheme to
defeat him.
EIGHT CHILDREN AT A BlRTH.-- the
I'd of Angus. last Mrs. Timothy Bradlee,
of Trumbull county, Ohio, gave birth to
eight chiliren-,hree boys and Ave girls.
They are all living, and are healthy, but
quite small. Mr.. B.s family is increasing
fast. He was married six years ago to
Eunice Mowdry, who weighed 213 pounds
on the day she was married. She has
given birth to two pairs of twins, and now
eight more making twelve children in six
years. It seems strange bu. nevertheless
true. Mrs. B. was twin OF three, her
father and mother being both twins, and
her grandmother the mother Of Eve pairs
of twins. Mrs. B. has named her boys
after noted and distinguished men, one
after Hon. J. r. Gidlinss. who has given
her a splendid gold medal one after the
Hon. Elijah Champlain, who gave her
deed to fifty acres Of land ; and the other
after James johnson, who gave her COW.
