FRIEND MACRLEY:
That dear old home organ "The Standard ha
been playing truant. For five weeks the custom
ary weekly visit was vainly looked for, and eX-
treme dearth of Inews from the dear old hills
| made us sad when LO! five issues came at once
Well it's long and lonely journey, no wonder
they came in company but VIC earnestly protest
against a duplicate truancy.
Despite the friends who have urged upon the
good people of jackson the necessity Of starting"
an Union paper, we find the Standard making no
rctrogradation in politics, to us it appears in the
same gaFb of true blue as when the blasts of
OF war blew. To the subscriber, ii is immensely
amusing to hear Of Maciley joining the copper
heads, especially when we remember the prUmi-
nent and decided position he has ever held in the
ranks of the Republicans Of jackson County when
we remember how his office was sacked by Cop
No, by Genuine Rebels, we wonder and DOUBT
but we are utterly 0stOunded when we take a re-
view Ot his lie 50 far back as we can remember
| Whlle Wrapt IN wonder at the news OF his demOr-
alizalion, happy thought flashed before the mem
tai ylslOn-"Mackley Mackley: why how stupid
There are more Mackleys than one, it has no ref
erence to DaCis Mackley," but glance at the par
agrapl from which we obtained our information
suddenly di5pels the deusion, for teresit is Davis
MackIeF. There's but one Of hdt aaiac, aud he
las furnished it by Sewardizing. But what
strange anomaly in politics! The editor copper
head, yet every line in every column of his papcC
breathing fidelity to the Union Republican party
| We can only conclude thus--if Macliley is cop
| perhead, then the legiOns Of Grant, Sherman
sheridan, and Thomas also wOrshipped ut the
| sGrpents shrine. We wonder VINO can now do
without the Standard in the county, the price for
| which II is Offered will not pay for the ink and
paper 1t is almost gift, and certainly within the
reach all, no good citizen can Gj0rd To do without
! lC-democrut though he be.
,,,tiI,
next election thereafter the oppressed vi ccntu-
lies Will have IN equal chance in the battle of
lie. viii not Ohio also make this stride in the
| cause OF freedom aud justicet Very glad are We to
see the name Of Hon. If. 5. Bundy placed on the
list lOr Governor OF Ohio, his is an unbiemshel
record, friend and foe know him us an incOrrupt-
iDlc man and politician. Buta da, or two since
| noticed ia one OF The staunchesl Republican IA
pcls Of this state an acinOwicdg gmenC OF tile yau-
able services lC rendered the govcrnmenG so thai
not only within the limits Of his own State are his
services appreciated.
Emigmnts are arriving here in large numbers by
every boat mostly Swedes and Germans fresh
nom Europe The Chamber of Commerce Board
of Trade and City Council have established here
an emegrant's home which is largely patrOnzed
| On oundag bt,t over 81 persons wGro dOmicilGd
| there, but on Monday they turned ont almost en-
maSSe to commence their search for a home in
America The weather has been unusually c0id
ths spring, not more than three days have we
had When lire was not only comfort but an ab-
solutc necessity A large number of substantial
business houses and dwellings are going up here
now, the business blocks being generally bnilt of
stone and rcsldences--lrame, very few bricks are
used here, because stone makes more hand ONE
aud durable building, aud Is equally cheap. Moses
A. Hawks the wife murderer was yesterday ad-
mtted to bail in the sum of $4,000 his trial will
come on in a few days, when important aud start
ling revelations are expected. | shall keep you
