Every nan opposed to having the pub
lie money squan dcred and used for elec-
tionceriug purposes, as has been doae by
democratic officers in this county, and as
is now threatened By them, should begin
at once TO work for the removal from pow
er Of so corrupt party. -Boarlon cor
responaem Republican.
The correspondents can't poiut his finger
to Single cent of tie 'puhlic money
squandered and used for electionecring
purposes, by democratic officers in this
COUNT He IS a pretty specimen of the
Cod aud morality panty to charge the
squander;ng Of public money by officials
He has had in his hands. IS constable, TO
our certain knowledge the full amount OF
judgment coming to Us, and when called
upon TO. it has offered as an excuse that
he is poor and had to use the money for
other purposes. Charging the ''squander-
ing Of public money by democratic Off
cials," comes with very poor grace VIC
think from the republican candidate for
sheriff, when he has not the least particle
of evidence to sustain his charge, and
when he is himself entirely unfit foI
tie position to which he aspiros by reason
of his incompetency to fill even the Office
| of constable.

= Beais, Esq, from the committee on
resolutions made the following repor:
which Was unanimously adopted:
Whereas, It has been The custom Of pO-
liiical parties from time immemorial, to
express themselves on he issues Of the
day, on ali proper occasions, therefore, We,
the democracy OF Bourbon township, in
convention assembled, 90 hereby adopt
The following resolutions:
1st. That We heartily endorse the plat
form Of principles adopted by the demo-
cratic state convention, he'd at indianap-
oils Jan Sth, 1868, and pledge ourselves

government indebtedness in greenbacks
so !ong as they shall remain legal tender,
ana not a dollar of it in gold or silver, un-
less expressly so stated in the act creating

shat the " way .iaring man, though fool
may not err therein"
3D. That the bonds Of The government
must lie taxed for state, county, and mu-
uicipai purposes the same as all other
property. That the unjust discrimination
between the lnan who is able to purchase
bonds on which he receives high rate Of
interest in addition to being exempt from
the payment Of all kinds OF taxes, and the
man who tolls from year - year for bare
~ enough to subsist upon, and is taxed to
pay the tax these bondhollcrs are exempt
from, demands immediate and permanent
change.
9TH. That the so called reconstruction
acts Of congress were conceived in sin,
brought forth in iniquity, and are are be-
ing carried out in infamy, merely to sub
serve the ends Of vcnaI and corrupt par
ty, and as such have our unqualified con-
domination.
9Th. That we are opposed to negro sut-
frage, either partial or impartial, and to
negro equality, under any and all ciroum-
stances.

means during the coming campaign to re-
deem our township from the hands OF the
radicals and place it on the side of demo
cratic equality and justice.
18th. That the democracy of Bourbon
township present to the congressional con-
yention to be held at Wanatah on the 18th
day of July. the name Of c. IL. Reeve, as

THERE is some dissatisfaction about
Bourbon, among the democrats, because
they do not get tdeir paper regularly
The blame rests somewhere else than at
this Office. The Bourbon package, as we'll
as all others, is mailed regularly and prompt
ly. 1t is to be hoped that they will all
come right hereafter, for this is one Of the
most unpleasant of the many very I'M
pleasant things that publisher is sub
jected to, and one that he hates to speak
Of most. No blame is attached to the
management of the post Office at this place,

Dun STREETS AND ALLEYS The
streets and alleys Of our town are in mis-
crably, City and careless con dition. Many
of the sidewalks are partly torn up, and
serve as very good trap or snare fol
passers-by to run into and skin their shins
thereby causing them to "cuss." Some
Of the most prominent streets in the place
are almost entirely blockaded with piles
Of stone, stumps, trunks of old trees
whose branches have rotted away and re-
turned to their mother earth, without be-
ing molested by either the marshal, super
visor, or property owners near by,-pi'es
of wood. old piano boxes, heaps of worth
less brick bats. old mortar, &c, &C., al IN
Jinitan1.
From now until the frost shall have
cit them down, we will be favored with
the sight Of gigantic gimson and other
weeds growing along the walks all over
town. because the citizens Of the place
have too little pride and are too indoleut
to spend five minutes with hoe to cut
them down.
Some walks that have been ordered put
down for at least two years are not CON-
rlcted and probably never will be, because
those who were ordered to put them down
are god fellows, ard the authorities do
not want to make them mad" Some wild
ow women who have to work hard for a
living have been compe He'd to put down
their walks, while hale men, in the prime
Of life SO ." scott free " from year 70 year.
Ne do not think these things are right,
and respectfully cali The attention of the
proper officials to these facts. IF there is
no way TO induce or compel property own
erS to put down walks as ordered, there
are many citizens of the place whn are in
terested il knowing it. They are those
pay their taxes and keep their streets
There should also he an ordinance pass
cd requiring the occupants of business
stands to put into the street once week,
all the straw and litter Of every kiud that
comes Of unpacking their goods, and a
scavepger should be emqioyed to draw il
away, thereby making the streets look
several hundred per cent better. aud
making them more healthy and convenient.
Our place is large enough and wealthy
enough 10 g dress up very considerably,
and We hope it will. There is want of ef-
liciency somewhere. for the present state
of affairs GU h.n to exist. There is an
order on the order book of the corpora
ton prohibiting the citizens from using
the street as a wood yard, or from keeping
it obst.ucted III any way, and il il the duly
OF the marshal to see that This order Is
enforced, and We believe there is ore also
making it the duty e. tie same official "a
sec that the side walks are put down in a
reasonable length Of time. and If the
property owners do net, thenit shall be ad-
vertiscd and all the costs ofpucting down
the walk, &C., charged to the property Il
these ordinances cannot be enforced we
would advise the board Of trustees to do
with them as they did with the notorious
