An Unpleasant Subject for
DfSSPctfOn.

Since the assassin-loving editor of the
Lacrosse Democrat made his stamping
tour i'm this State. the papers of that party
have adopted him as leader, copy freely
from his paper and initiate its recklessness
and scurrility. One of his strongest points
as leader of the party is the persistency
with which he insults The name OF LINCOLN
and seeks to honor his assassin. In his pa
per of last Monday, the 10Th inst, he
speaks of the former as the martyr who.
from a private box i'm Ford's Iheater.
floated on the fragrant Whit of pistol in
to the glorious futurity reserved for horse
thieves. tyrants and murderers." Again,
he says:
1.-THE haunting ghost of John Wilkes
Booth had not then cast his baleful shadow
over the path of Abraham Lincoln, Death
was busy on battlefields which would
never have had an existance but for Abra-
ham lincoln. God had not yet summoned
the guilty tyrant to render an account for
his misdeeds."
This Infamous scurrility needs no answer
ard we only publish it to call attention to
the character of the leading Copperhead
journals. The dsfeafuRnd destruction OF
a party coddling SUCH men as Pomeroy, is
as much duty of patriotism as the defeat
of the armed foes Of the Government du-
ring the war. During his sojourn in this
State he was ''cheek by jowl' with the can
didates of that party, and petted and feast
ed on all hands. In Difference to their
wishes he tried to do away with the effect
produced by the republication here of an
extract from his. paper of Aug. Goth, 1864.

then by the lie circumstancial in an elabo-

Rule or Ruin.

Since the organization Of the Merchants
Exchange Co, the American and United
States Companies have instructed their
agents wherever the Merchants is doing
business, to reduce their rates to a mere
nominal price, and TO refuse TO take goods
from that Company These old Companies
have not only been great monopoly, but
Il swindle for many years, and now refuse
not only to compete with, but endeaEor,
by dishonorable means, to thwart the ope-
ratiOns OF the new Company. whose more
reasonable charges and increasing popular
ity with the public. has already placed it
on firm basis. Every business man can
not fail to see that it is for his individual
interest, as well As to the public interest to
sustain and patroniZe the Merchant Union
Company, as by so doing he will save him
self from the cxhOrbitani charges of the
monopolitcs hereafter. who will make up
for losses sustained in breaking up the
new Company by increased charges after
they have succeeded.
Personally or financially We have no
more interest in the matter than any other
person outside the Company. but prefer to
pay the new Company fair rates than to
patronize the old monopoly at halfprice.-
