The Southern Rebels are

among the rioters, calling them

Will you elect Grant who
will throttle this second rebel

elect Grandmother Seymour,
who will wait till the rebels
have their organized armies in
the field, and the forts, arms
and mints in their hands9 Do

"Organizel Organize ! Au'

startling head lines that have
appeared in the Enquirer for
the past three weeks, and the
people Of Elk township, who
were to rally at the Court
House, in obedience to the call
of the so-ealled Democratic
Central Committee Of Vinton

spective homes, and quietly re.
mained there, doing up the
chores and blacking their boots

The test has been applied,
and the Democracy OI our

a single Democrat "organized," "
and the "suitable persons" who
were to superintend the job
retired in disgust. The lead
ers are beginning to see that
they have made a grand mis-
take in supposing that they
can get the people to worship
all manner of false gods under
the name of Democracy. They

Public Credit.

Demosratic papers are con-
tinually growing about the
high rate Of interestBpaid on
bonds, and comparing it with
the low rate paid by England.
An examination of the history
of the loans made by our Gov.
ernment will reveal the fact
that before the war the lowest
rate Of Interest we ever paid
was under, the administration
of Zacharia Taylor, a Wing
President five per cent. Dem
ocratic rule steadily increased
it, and under the administre-
ton of James Buchanan We
were compelled to pay twelve
per cent. The reader will bear
in mind that this was in gold,
and the bonds were exempt
from taxation. The highest
rate paid since the Republican
party came into power is 1910
per cent. gree nbacks and The
lowest rate four per cent,
which, twithstandingthe war
and, the consequent increased
number of bondsIn the market,
is one per cent, lower than the
most favorable loan of the De-
mocracy in, time of peace, and
and only one,third the rate paid
under Mr.. Buchanan, the last
Democratic President. 5 9.s.
The figures show that our
credit is improved instead Of
destroyed as Horatio Seymour
charges under a Republican
administration. .. r.

letter of acceptance. He could
in ten words have settled a
question that, Democratic ed

"IF the masses Of the labJring meI
desire the equal taxation of every
species OF property according to ID
real value, Government bonds ant
other securities included;
they will not vote the Radical ticket
but will vote for that of the Democ
racy. Just go and vote for a change

The people will hardly "vote
for a, change" unless the En-
quirer can prove that the
change viii be tor the better
Let us examine the change
they ask us to make, and see
whether or not we will better
ourselves. We will cite but
one or two cases. James EN-
mitt, Of Pike county, a wealthy
distiller, pays more than ten
times as much tax upon the
whisky he manufactures as is
paid by all Of the citizens Of
Vinton county. This is under
the Republican system. Now,
the value of his distillery is
about $4,000, which is the
amount of property he would
be required to pay tax upon il
we had "equal taxation Of
every species of property ac-
cording to its real value" The
value OF the taxable property
of Vinton county is $3,7O0, 800,
which is the amount our peo,
pie would be required to pay
tax upon if we had "equal tax
ation"-or more than five times
the amount Mr.. E., the wealthy
distiller, would be required, to
pay. tt.r
Again, we will suppose Mr.
Smith, a professional man, a
lawyer, a doctor, a Judge, an
Assessor of Internal Revenue,
a stock buyer, President Of a
railroad company or otner cor
poration, an artist or an author,
with an income Of 5000 per
year, but no real or personal
property. Under the Republi.
can system he is taxed upon
his income that is in excess Of
81 ,0O0-that is $4,000. Under
the Democratic sytem he pays
-. =
no tax at all, because he has
no real property, while Mr.,
Jones, who is a mechanic or a
laborer, and owns $50 worth ol
household furniture, and has
but a slender income, is re.
quired to pay a tax on that
amount. cl I'.e. 9.uh
