The Wyandot pioneer. (Upper Sandusky, Ohio) 1853-1868, 1868-10-08


Mr.. Cleveland, the Postmaster at
Hartford, who went over to Democracy
two years ago, has, we learn, sent on his
resignation to the Department at Wash
ington, and will take the stump for
Grant and Colfax next week. Cleveland
is loyal man, and has no sympathy
with Seymour, Blair and Democracy
We welcome Cleveland back. The Re-
publicans of Connecticut are requested
to join in the chorus next week. ''Home
again."-N. Y. Advertiser.
Cleveland snuffs the wind about to set
in another quarter from whence it has
been blowing for the last two years. He
went over to the Johnsonized Democra-
cy, and could not find words abusive
enough for Republicans. The Albany
Journal puts it right when it says it ac-
cepts the conversion of this class of po-
lltical weather-eocks, as merely show
ing which way the wind blows.-Cleue-

Good ADVICE.

The Republican State Committee, in
their congratulatOry letters over the re-
suit of the late elections, make the fol-
lowing good suggestions to Republi-
cans:
ave are much grstifed in being able
to announce that, after one of the most
violent political struggles ever known,
we have elected the Republican ticket
in Ohio by at least Sixteen Thousand
majority. This, however, should only
animate us to renewed and greater eff
forts to carry the vote for General Grant
up TO the very highest point at the
Presidential election. r9g
aSee that your County, Township
and Grant Club organizations are not
only kept in full vigor, but try to addtO
their efficiency in every possible way.
"We would earnestly recommend
that your Club meetings be continued
weekly, and that you hold at least one
large meeting in your County before
the day of election.
"Do not allow your own or the efforts
of our friends to be relaxed for a mo-
ment but continue to labor for every
vote, as if it was to decide the result"

,rt,e PoIitionE siluation .


Tle rumor Of the withdraw of Sey-
meur and Blair, which reached us as
we went to press last week, was the
prelude to the violent demoralizafon
which has seized the Democracy since
the State elections on the 18th. While
Seymour and Blair have actually not
withdrawn, they have both expressed
willingness to do so, and it has been
the wish of prominent Democratic
leaders in all parts of the country that
they should do so; but the opinion of
others, shared by the Democratic Ma
tional Committee, that the move would
not help matters, has prevailed and
Seymour and Blair still head the ticket
The party however, is thoroughly de-
moraiized, and has virtually abandoned
the field. 1t is just as sure that Grant
and Colfax win be elected as it is that
election day viii come around. The.
Incorporate speech of Frank Blair in
St Louis, last week, threatening Grant
with ASSASSINATION; the exposure Of
wholesale frauds in Pennsylvania and
Ohio, perpetrated on the ballot box by
Democrats, and the general abandon
ment by the Democratic party Of even
the semblance of honesty and decency,
will drive its remaining respectable
members to the support of the Repub-
lican National Ticket.

From the PIT. Clinton UniOn.l

[From the PIT. Clinton Union.l
In this county we have been complete
ly whipped. How it was done we will
try to tell our readers. next week False
and fraudulent naturalization papers
helped do it, to what extent we don't
know.
Gen. Gibson is beaten by treachery,
.trickery and frauds, the Ike of which
has never been known in Ohio. Many
of the papers shown us were issued by
Judge Dickinson, of Sandusky- county,
who was the candidate against Gen.
Gibson. If this is the way he spent
his time making votes, we are prepared
to admit him successful and powerful
candidate. We would like TO call the
gentleman's attention to an act of Con-
gress passed March Sd 1913, provid-
ing for three years imprisonment. We
will simply say that if the law is en-
forced, and Nj. Dickinson'sg name to
the papers used that are now in our
possession, the gentleman will not like
iy go@to Congress right away. Our
own private opinion publicly expressed
is that Mr.. Dickinson, aud his Clerk
McArdle are nice couple of effective
electioneers.
We areIsoFry to say We need not go
from home for fraudulent naturalization
papers. Werthink not less than three
hundred illegal naturalization papers
were issued and used in this county,

WHO is mcArdIe.

J.H. McArdle, the person who was
arrested and bound over for issuing
fraudulent naturalization papers, is
thirty-fYe or forty years of age, and a
native Of this or Seneca county-Sen-
eca county, we believe. He has always
been a appointment leader in the Demo
cratic party of this county, and has the
reputation of doing his share of the
dirty work of the party generally. He
is member and secretary ofthe Dem
ocr,rtic school board of this city; chair
man of the Democratic County Central
Committee; employed by the Demo-
cratic Board of Commissioners to make
out abstracts, &c, and has been and is
yet 3 candidate for the nomination Of
Sheriff During the war be was rank
copperhead, having a brother in the
rebsl army. No one here was surpris-
ed at the discovery of his connection
with the fraudulent papers, the only
wonder was how he came to be left of
on such insignificant bail as $4,000.

A Word to Fair Minded Democrats.
Everybody of ordinary intelligence knows
that there are throughout the country thou
sands of Democrats whose better feelings
rebel against the society in which they find
themselves, who secretly loathe
the principles and tendencies of the party
with which they act, and who only await a
favorable opportunity 10 leave their present
associations, and come out on the side flaw
Loyalty and Liberty. Thus far they have
adhered to the Democratic name merely as
matter of partisan fealty, and they disliLe 20
hear the epithets of renegade" and aturn.
coat" which their old associates would De
sure to use against them should they change
from one party to the other in ordinary times
when there were no great disturbing cur
rents and startling revolutions in the politics
Of the country. Such men only need de-
cent excuse for leaving the demoralized and
oulawed party of treason and repudiatiou
which is evidently in its death-tbroes; and
we believe that excuse has now been furnish
cd by the Democratic party itself There is
po longer any tie of honor or of interest to
bind an honest Democrat to the false and ex-
piring party which bears the Democratic
name. The action of the D emoeratic leaders
in attempting (no matter whether they sue
ceed or nOt) to withdraw the regular nominee
of the party in the last weeks cf the cam
paign and substitute an Old Line Abol ition-
ist in his s.ead, breaks every bond of party
allegiance and is a notife ltion to all Demo-
Gratis that they are at liberty to take their
carpet bags and go where they please. It
is a declaration to all men that nothing is
left of the Democratic party but the Demo
cratic name, and that those who wish to de-
sert the shadow, as represented By, Seymour,
and K the substance ss represented by
Grant are at liberty to make the change.
The proposed withdrawal of Seymour and
Blair is the final surrender of the Democratic
organization, and the rank and file are free
10 go home-to the great Union Republican
ireside around which there is abundant
room and cheer for all comers. Now is ths
time for honest Democrats to stampede from
the party and come over to On organization
which will welcome them as co-wOrkers in q
worthy cause. The Democratic leaders By
their own act have absOlved all Democrats
from further allegiance to party, and they are
now at liberty to follow their nobler in
stincts and their real Interests into the ranks
of the Peoples Party now led by those
worthy and gallant standard bearers Grant
and olfax.--Register.

Tte NaturaIIzatlon Frauds.


We give in this paper pretty full
account from all sources, of the stupen-
dous frauds practised by the Demo
cratic party of this District at the late
election. 1t is a source of qualification
to know that the law has been invoked
to ferret out and punish the psrpetra-
tors Of this outrage on the rights of the
people We trust and believe that the
investigation viii be pushed to the re-
motest end, in order shat the whole vii
lany may be laid bare, and that Justice
may overtake every individual engaged
in it be he high or low. Our opinion
is, that if the actual truth could be
reached, the leaders of the Democratic
party in this County, from Dickinson to
McA-rdle, would be found equally gull
ty and equally deserving of cOndign
punishment As this whole matter viii
be made subject ofIegalinvestigation
we defer further comment for the pres
ent. 5

We present in another place list of
all the naturalization papers issued by
the Probate Court of this county since
April Sd, 1868, of which any record
has been kept in said Office. All nat
uralizatiOn papers from this county not
included in this list issued since the
above date, are fraudulent, and persons
offering to vote on them should be ar
rested. Cut the list out and preserve
it. w Remember also, that any nat
uralizatiOn paper with McArdle's name
as Clerk, is fraudulent, as Judge Dickin-
son has made statement that McArdle
had no authority to issue naturalization
papers.

The Fremont Naturalization Frau

The Fremont NATURALIZATION frauds.
Judge Dickinson, of Sandusky coun-
-ty, who was the successful Democratic
candidate against Gibson, in the Ninth
District, repudiates all connection with
the naturalization frauds perpetrated in
the Probate Court, of which he is
Judge, and lays the whole blame on
his clerk, j. H. McArdle, thus admitting
the fact of the fraud, though denying
any. completely in it. We have no
reason to. dopbt the entire truth of
Judge Diokinson's statement, for his
reputation is SUCH as to forbid the
thought that he would be party to so
monstrous crime.
Further developments show that over
three hundred fraudulent papers were
used, in one county in the Ninth Dis
trict, and there Is no doubt that suffi-
cient proof will be brought to unseat
Judge Dickinson. Other instances have
come to light of these papers being
fraudulentIy voted on in this city, and
the Investigations still going on. It
is known that the bogus naturalization
papers issued from Judge Dickinson's
office have found their way into other
counties in Northern Ohio, outside of
the Ninth District, and the more the
matterSs investigated, the more extern
siye becomes the discovered field of the
villainy.
The whole matter viii be unearthed,
and the offenders, 50 far as they can be
ascertsioed, will be punished. There
can be no question but that the man
McArdle was the willing tool of other
parties.

FRANK BLAIR, the Democratic candi-
date for Vice President in his St Louis
speech last week, declared that if the
Democracy were defeated in NoVem-
Der, it was his candid opinion there
would never be another Presidential
election in America, which means that
he proposes to raise another rebellion.
It's our candid opinion that there
ought to be another rebellion, for the
express purpose of shooting just such
rampant scallawags as Blair and unhung
traitors as Wade Hampton aud Forrest.
Another rebellion, to last about three
months, would pretty efsctually clean
out the. most pestiferous of the old
rebels and their blatant friends.
