The AdUertiser of last week brought
down the party whip furiouslY upon
Messrs. Houck and Wagner. Il
abuses them with its utmost ability
and tries to hold them up as a warn
ing to all Democrats who dare to have
minds of their own. The AdUertis-
er rather over-did the matter. 1t did
not scare those gentlemen the least
1t did not affect the sleep of any Of
the many who are doing just what
Messrs. H. and W. are said to be en-
gagged in. Nobody is frightened, but
many Democrats are indignant that
the Advertiser should set itself up to
decide what men, possessing intelli-
gence fully equal to the managers of
that sheet, should do-that it should
abuse and villify as good citizens as
there are in the county.
Bring down the lash, Mr.. Ad0er-
tiser. Score them up. DenOunce
them. Villify them. Do all in your
power to frighten them, and then,
after election tell what you gained by
it.
We can tell The Advertiser that
Messrs. Wagner and Houck are men
of too much knowledge of the world,
have been too long residents of this
county, are too we'll known to the
people of Seneca, to be frightened or
injured by anything it may say.

Sam Carey IS paid for stumping
the State of Ohio by the Democratic
managers at Columbus. He is the
champion of the Democratic party in
Ohio, but in every place where he
speaks, he is posted to address a
"Working Mems Meeting The
word Democrat is not used in con-
nection with him and the same is the
case in the news paper announcements
and the reports of the meetings. II
is dodge to catch working men, and
the managers are shrewd enough to
know that the words Democracy and
Laboring Men don't go well together
However. as dodge it won't work

sides, Carey knows nothing about la
bor.

The Cincinnati Commercial is re-
sponsible for the following good one,
though we think it owes the ladies
an apology:
The report is credible that Sam.
Cary is organizing secret societies
throughout the State, while in the
pay of the Democratic State Central
Committee. Sam has been in that
business ever since he was old enough
to drive oxen. He never could re-
sist the temptation, when he heard
of secret society, of applying for
immediate admission. There is a
mezzotint engraving of Sam in ex-
istence, in which he appears in all
the glory of the regimentals of a Pa
triarch, or something of the sort, of
the Sons of Temperance. 1t is a
wonderful picture. Sam has been,
perhaps is, an Odd Fellow, Red Man,
Mason, Know Nothing and Son of
Temperance. He would have been
Daughter of Rebekah if his sex had
permitted.

The Legislature elected this fall
has to re-district the State into Con-
gressional districts, which for ten
years to come will decide in a great
measure, the status of the Republi-
can delegation in the national Con-
gress. If the Democratic party has
the majority in the Legislature they
will so gerrymander the State as to
secure a large majority of the Con-
gressional delegation? Remember,
Republicans, It is all-important, and
govern yourselves accordingly. Sac
rifce not single vote, but work with
a hearty good will to the last mo
ment.

rying on the State and National gov
ments.-AdUertiser.
A few figures from the Annual Re
port of the Auditor of State will show
Just how much We pay for Stats pur'
poses and for county purposes. On
page AZ of the report we find the fol-
lowing as the State Tax of Seneca
County:
Total State Tax s45, ,167 80. That
is what we pay towards the support
of the State Government.
On the same page we find Seneca
put down for County taxes as follows
Total amount of all other than State
taxes s153, ,SO8 48.
The two together make the snug sum
of S198,975 81, Of which less than
one-third is levied for State purposes.
Or, where we pay one dollar to the
State Government we pay over three
dollars to the County Government
In regard to the State tax we only
have this to say-that it is as large
as it is, can be easily traced to the fact
that a Democratic Legislature was
controlling the State; that it held
longer sessions, and spent more money
uselessly than any body of the kind
that has ever been in power.
So much for County and State mat
ters. As to what the people pay to
the National Government-which was
so cleverly Jumped in with that of the
State-we have no means of knowing;
but when the Justification of the other
statements are considered, our read
ers will take it with due degree of
allowance, and with charity toward
the sound author.

Every vote cast for Pendleten will
be a practical endorsement of his
declaration in Congress that the
struggle for the national life was "an
unnatural and an unholy war" Fif-
ty thousand of Ohio's nobIest and
braYest sons sleep in their graves as
the result of that war. Did they
die in an unjust and an unhOly cause?
Pendleton thought South Carolina
right and Ohio wrong in that strug-

will answer this question. Upon

We don't know how much it would
take to get us to assume the load Of
anxiety and trouble that is now rest
ing upon the shoulders of the Dem
ocratic leaders and the AdUer-
tiser. Gold and silver or even un-
faxed bonds-farms and houses
Probate Judgeships and Clerkships
all would not tempt US to be so
worried. Fear is upon them, and
they don't know what the fear is.
Sleep has fed from their eyelids and
they are as restless as the hyena.

The Advertiser is live paper, and
we enjoy reading it hugely: 1t is
always up to the times-sometimes
a little ahead, To its many attrac-
tions it added, last week, personal

Our friend of the AdUertiser is
working hard for Landon, as he
should. Last week he tries to prove
that he was nominated fairly, tells
what a jealous Democrat he was du-
ring the "dark days fthe war, when
the lives and property of Democrats
was threatened in our very midst,
what an excellent Prosecuting At
torney-for two terms-he was, what
bravery he displayed as Mayor, etc.
That may all be true, but We think
not. If he was fairly nominated,
whence these scarcely audible Whis-
pers of dissatisfaction-whence this
fright that so encompasses the Dem
ocratic managers? If he has been
Prosecuting Attorney two terms,
and Mayor as long as he wanted,
Why should he seek more Offices. Is
he the pet of the Tifin ring?

Ob;o's Next Legislature.

The Democracy are moving heaV-
en- and earth to secure the next Leg
islature. They are making consid-
erable bluster over Mr.. Pendletcni
and claiming that they will elect
him, while at the same time they
are working with an eye mainly tc
securing the Legislature. They have
good reason for this. The next
Legislature, in its second year, will
re-district the State for representa-
ton in Congress, and the Democracy
are anxious for the job. They are
bound to have it, and already the
managers of the party have figured
out the districts, and by that peeu-
liarly Democratic process known as
gerrymandering, have thrown togeth-
er, in imagination, counties in such
shape as to give them seven more
Representatives in Congress.
It rests solely With Republicans to
say whether this Democratic scheme
shall lie carried out. If every Re-
publican turns Quito The polls and
does his duty, the Legislature is safe
but on the other hand if they are in.
active and Indifferent, they will not
only give the Legislature to the De-
mocracy, but viii send seven more,
Democrats to Congress from this
State than we now have.
This is subject is of great impor-
tance, and we wish Republican to un-
derstand its full significance. Indif-
ference or the refusal to vote is simp-
ly saying to the Democracy;
Take the next Legislature.
Send Democrats to Congress from
Ohio.
Undo the National lesislation Of
the past four years.
Take the National Government in
your own hands.
Republicans, are you prepared to
do all this, or will you do your whole
duty from now till the election takes
place.
The Tiffin tribune. (Tiffin, Ohio) 1868-1887, 1869-10-01

The Tribune in commenting upon
our denial that Mr.. Landon was a
member of the Know-nothing party,
says:
@It is a matter of no consequence
if Mr.. Laudon had been a Know
Nothing. :: We are perfect
ly willing to take the assurance of
Mr.. Landon that he is not Know
Nothing"
Ifit was of "no consequence why
did it make the lying charge? lfit
is the policy Of that sh ct to vil!ify
and slander citizens merely to crafty
its low inclinations, the sooner we
know it the better. If it suPPoses
we are going to answer all the simple
questions that weakly appear IN Its
columns, it is mistaken. We could
fill our columns in the denial of its
false assertions, only to be combatted
by other lying charges on its part.
Not any, neighbor. We are dealing
with the record of the Radical party,
which for corruption, robbery and
fraud has no parallel in history. If
it dare not deny our charges, we are
willing that the people should judge
as to their truthfuiness.-AdUertiser,
Sept. Path.
Now, why could not the Advertiser
have let we'll enough alone? We
never said Landon was a KnoW-Noth-
ing, but said that we we're SO inform
ed. Why did not the Adrertiser pub
lish the garbled extract from the
TRIBUNE sooner it appeared in our
paper on the 10th ult., and the Ad-
Uertiser gives it on the 24th. Why
stir it up at all, after so long. We

Nothing, and an active member. Thi

There is a very easy way to settl'

sure he was not a Nothing
there is nothing more easy than 70

Our columns are open to him, and W,
will give his denial a prominent plac
in our paper, free of charge.
Again, Mr.. advertiser, did Mr
Landon ever assure you that he hat
not been a Know Nothing, as .yo1
stated, or was the wish that he woul'
so strong, that you ran the risk an
published it?

Dom Piatt, tells us that corrup-
ton stalks abroad in every depart
ment at Washington, and Dom is Il
good Radical.-Adrertiser.
Bless ynn- Donnns say-that
when johnson was in power, but we
have not heard of his saying SO re-
Gently. At that time he had good
reason to make such charge. Andy
johnson was running the Government
under the management of Democratic
leaders, and nearly all the offices
throughout the country we're filled
with Democrats. Corruption did
stalk abroad, officers poeketed the
revenue money, whiskey rings were
triumphant, and Congress had to
make up the funds to pay interest on
bonds and for the general expenses Of
the Government by passing deficiency
bills. OH yes; corruption did
stalk abroad, and the people had tC
pay for it.
Now it is different. Grant has cut
down the expenses of the Govern
ment, and the estimated amount
authorized by Congress to carry it on
will be amply sufficient. No def
cheney bills this year. Besides all
this, the debt has been reduced some
S49, ,5OO,758 up to Sept 1st. since
Grant assumed the reins of Govern
ment.
How do you like it?
