The Jackson standard. [volume] (Jackson C.H., Ohio) 1847-1888, 1868-03-26

, from the same writer, giving an account OF Iii
public life. We quote from the Cincinnati Ga
zette, as follows:
'The campaign of 1856 found him with his ar
NOR on, doing battle for Fremont. No Presi
dental campaign has ever received more freely
the invaluable labors Of Wade than that of 1856
He was found on the stump in almost every Stat
of the free North, urging the voters to take
speedy vengeance on the authors and adyo
Gates of the repeal of tho measure which secured
liberty to free territory.
1t Is said that man must be good natured II
order to be joker; if this be true the storiel
told about Mr.. Wades bad temper will not holC
good, for he is an inyeterate old Joker. One day
he was riding in stage coach, when coming
near Jefferson one OF the passengers, who did
not know his name, but with whom Wade haC
struck up conversation, said to him: This,
believe, Is Jefferson, the home of old Ben. Wade
Well, should like to see the old fellow" Well
have no desire TO see the ugly, cross grained old
cuss, drOly replied Wade and the passenger:
roard with laughter, to the evident annoyance
OF the stranger who did not see anything tC
laugh at until Wade got out of the coach and he
was told who he had been talking to.
Mr.. Wade went on q short stumping tour fol
Mr.. Clay, in 1874, and on his return home found
the celebrated Alabama letter, which so much
injured Mr.. Clays chances for the Presidency.
The moment he read it. Mr.. Wade, with his usual
sagacity, saw his faVorite candidate had fatally
injured his cause Turning to friend, Wade
said: well, now, fit don't beat the devil, so
smart a man as Clay should write such q letter
III tell you what il is the next man support
Tor the Presidency snail make ltpart OF his
qualifications that he can neither read nor write.

go on the railroad as aras YOU can; then at Ashta-
Dula you take tile stage, and, II the Dads are good,
! you can reach II ilhout walking up more than
TWO hills This was quite true statement, for
the writer, when he he went to Jefferson in the
stage, last summer, had TO walk up one OF the
! hills referred TO.

Joking aside, Jefferson Is place of great DO

of thinking We know of but six Democrats in
or about the place; and although Democratic
| papers have been started there they soon died
out for want of patronage and we believe
there Is not now single Democratic journal in
Mr.. Wades old district.
