Urbana union. [volume] (Urbana, Ohio) 1862-1872, 1869-08-25

We should like very much to see figured
up the time Senator Dangler spent at
home attending to his private business,
while receiving his five dollars a day
from the State Treasury. 1t next finds
fault with the Legislative committees,
composed of men of both parties, that
visited different sections of the State
last summer, while a score or so of car
petbag committees, appointed by "A Rad
ical Congress, are perambUlating the
country, from the Lakes to the Gulf, and
from the Atlantic to the Pacific; the tyine
and JUhisky of either one (which is cost
ing the people of the country more mon
ey than all the State committees to-
getheT. 1t next gTOwls like a bear with
a sore head, because the DemOcTatic
Legislature made an appropriation for
Il little over JfUC hundred thousand dol
lars, while the previous Radical body
appropriated SeCeEtGeH hundred thousand
dollars, for the same purpose. 1t finds
fault with appropriations to rebuild the
Central LUnatie Aylum for the Girls
Reform School, for the Blind ASYLUM
and the Geological Survey, which Gov.
Hayes so strongly recommended and af-
terward sent to the State of New York
to procure a chief to carry on. 1t then
iZing counties, cities, towns and town
ships to raise money by taxation, if the
people desire it, to build school houses,
and to purchase land for county agri-
cultural purposes, to build court houses,
jails, intirmaries and other necessary
county buildings, to establish orphan
homes for white childrenunder certain
circumstances, (if this hadbeen for ne
gro children it would have been all
right, for Cleveland school house
sites, and various other purposes, in
Guiding the authority given to the
loyal village of Oberlin to erect Il town
hall, in which white and black can meet
together; all of which were voted for by
every Republican member of both
Houses. This is about the substance of
the document, which is made the plat
fOrmOf the Republican party, and which
they represent to the intelligent peOple
of Ohio to induce them to vote their
ticket. The document referred to does not
say awOrd about the 81, 600 salary Gov
ernOr Hayes is receiving from the States
while he is acting as an office broker at
Cincinnati, and travelling to and from
Washington endeavOring to have gal
liant soldiers, turned out of office, and
stay at-hOme political sneaks appointed
in their places.
1t does not say word abOut1the $500,
600 stolen from the soldiers relief fund,
which, if now in the Treasury, would
go a great ways in the support Of the
$50, 900 soldiers orphans which the Ohio
State Journal says are now in the poor
houses of our State. "a.
1t does not tell the people there are
government bonds enough untaxed in
the State of Ohio, which, iftaxed, would
raise sufficient means to pay off the
State debt in a few years, and thus re,
lieve the people of a great source of eX.
pense. 1t does not make public the fac
that there is money enough stolen every
! year by national revenue officers to pay
| the entire expenses of our State govern
ment, nor does it let the people know
that the Republican Legislature of 1866
appropriated over million dOIlar
more than the democratic Legislasturt
Of lGS8-9 If the decent portion of tin
| Republican party do not blush at bein|
put in the ridiculous position of tallin3
such stuff as political platform, it vii
/ be because they are getting used to sucl
humbuggery. CereLoHld Plain Deal
