&" Union League"

We hear IL rumored on the streets that this
infamous combination of had men, have put
certain names forward for official positions;
among therest we hear of men who are NOM
mated as candidates for the Legislature. His
tory tells us Of league" composed of the
most unscrupulous and blood-thirsty men, un-
der charge of an "old man. called the Z" old
man of the mountain;" his band. for very
pertinent reasons, was named the assassins."
This Union League comes as near being fac
si,aie of the old mans" band as any we
have ever heard Of. During the war, when
the scum ofSSciety flOatcd to the surface, and
honest men were murdered because they
would not join hlor connive at the unmitiga-
ted atrocities of infamous thieves and miser-
able scoundrels. this "Union League" was
born and grey into formidable proportions.
Honest men were marked and ordered from
their homes and falling failing to obey the mandates
of this veiled monster. were brutally murder
ed. John /. johnson. rs good citizen as
there was in Fort Smith. was called out and
foully murdered on the portals of his own
house, and in the presence of his own family.
at they, Nest Of this same Union League by
some Of their hired assassins. Three of our
staunch and high-toned citizens. Of this place,
were put under the ban of this eXecrable
League" because they refused to vote in a
certain farce of an election on the Constitu-
ton. Steps were taken in the meeting of the
Union League" to have these three men of
whom we speak, banished from their homes.
One of the most detestable features in this bu-
siness is that some of the leading men, or. at
all events. they are said to be leading men, in
this infamous League are men who were
permitted by the magnanimity of the south
ern people to remain in our town, and con-
duct their business. when we knew them to
be the most miserable abolitionists. and could
easily. under the pressure of the times, have
been driven from among us.
All we have to say upon this subject is this.
If the people of Crawford County desire to
continue the miserable, ignorant, and worse
than all. corrupt men in power; if they desire
to send men to the Legislature who belong to
the party who fastened upon them the pres
ent enormous rate of taxation; who foisted
upon them the expense of paying the salary
of an Adjutant General for old Murphy
amounting to from four to five thousand dol
lars per year. besides many other superfluous
expensive and ridiculous officers; if they wish
to see one dollar on every hundred of their
property pocketed by the sharpers of this
same party. then we say vote for the Union
League Candidates. 1t is estimated that there
will be 100000 surplus money accruing from
the present enormous taxation. Send the
Union League Candidates. and you will find
the old system of stealing kept up. and no
one, save the drones about the governmental
wheels, will ever receive one dollar Of the sur
plus. This is matter the people certainly
and it's now for them to decide,

mances yet produced in America. Beadle &
