AUCTION.

al 7 the request of the Sheriff at Freder-
AA iksted, the following
The States and Union. [volume] (Ashland, Ohio) 1868-1872, 1869-09-01

our thanks to the 5Sth General AS
sembly, for their enconmical expendi-
lures in the administration ofthe State
Government, and for the exposure of
the wholesale frauds in the erection of
State buildings, whereby the people
were swindled out of half a million of
dollars, by the negligence of Repub
lican State officials and the dishonesty
of contractors.
8. ResoArcd, That it is the right of
each State to decide for itself who
shall possess the elective franchise
within it that by the attempt to reg
ulate suffrage in Ohio, by the means
of the soScalled 18th constitutional
amendment, is subversivc of the
principles of the Federal Constitution.
O.. Res0lccd, That the policy and
legislation of the Radical party direct
ly tend to destroy all the reserved
rights of the States and convert the
Republic into a consolidated dcspotism.
That, whether such dcspotism be ex-
| ercised by an Emperor, a President,
or n Congress, the result would be IA
tai to liberty and good government.
| That consolidation in this country
means the absolute dominion of mono
poly and aggregate capital over the
lives, the liberty and the property OF
| the toiling masses.
10. ReSolUed, That We denouncc the
| National Banking System as N of the
worst o~utgrowths of the bonded debt,
which unnecessarily increases the bur
den of the people thirty millions OF
dollars annually, and that we demand
its immediate repeal.
IL. ResOlUcd, That the trial and sen
tence to death by military commission
| of n citizen of Texas, not in the mill
| tiary or naval service, when the civil
courts we're in the unobstructed ex-
ercisc of their functions in that State,
and in the time of profound peace, and
the approval of that sentence by Pre-.
sident Grant, arc violations of the
most sacred rights of American citi
zens, guaranteed by their Constitutions
State and Federal, and deserve and
should receive the sevcrest dondcm
nation of every lover of liberty and
Constitutional Government.
II. Resolred, That the numerou.
palpablc and high-handed usurpation.
the party in power, their many publ,
and private acts of tyranny, trampline
under foot the OWL law and the guar
antecs of the Constitution, their con
tinuing TO deprive sovereign States O
representation in Congress, and to
govern said States by mere militar,
rule, show them to be the party of DIES
potism, unworthy the confidence anC
support of n free people.
Is. Resolred, That we extend thu
right hand of fellowship and recognize
rs brethren in Il common cause, all con
<ervative men not heretofore Demo
rats who will unite with us in rescu
ing the government from the unworth!
hands into which it haa fallen, and W,
pledge the united and cordial supper
Of the two hundred and fifty Thousand
Democrats in Ohio whom VIC rcprescn
to the ticket nominated by this Con
v%cntion and presented by us to thu
suffragcs Of the people of Ohio.
The States and Union. [volume] (Ashland, Ohio) 1868-1872, 1869-09-01
PLATFORM.
Adopted by the Ohio Democratic
State Convention, July 7, 1869.

l.. Resolved, That the exemption
from tax of over two thousand five
hundred million dollars in govern
ment bonds and securities, is unjust to
the people and ought not to be tolerat-
ed, and that we are opposed to am
appropriation for the payment Of in.
terest on public bonds until they are
made subject to taxation.
2. ResOLUed, That the claims of the
bond holders, that the bonds which
were bought with greenbacks and the
principal of which is by law payable
in currency, should nevertheless be
paid in gold, is unjust and extortionate
and if persisted in will inevitably force
upon the people the question of repu-
diation.
3. ResOlUed, That we denounce the
high-protectivc tariff, which was dc
signed only in the interests of New
England manufacturers. That said
tariff is also, by.its enormous imposi-
tons on salt, sugar, tea, coffee, and
other n~ccessaries, uncomfortable /; OPP
pressive especially upon the people OF
the West /; and that we demand its
repeal, and the substitution of another
based upon revenue principles alone,
upon the closest possible approxima.
ton to absolute free trade.
4. Resolred, That the Democratic
party of the Uuited States have always
been permanently friendly to the
rights and the interests of the laboring
man ; that they are i'm favor Of Il limit
ed number of hours in all manufac-
turing workshops-hours dictated by
the physical and mental well-being OF
the laborer. That they favor the
most liberal laws i'll regard to house.
hold and homestead exemption from
sale and execution. That they also are
in favor of liberal grants of land from
the public domain to the actual settler
without any cost, and are opposed to
the douation ofthem to swindling
railroad corporations, and that they
are generally friendly to the system OF
meaures advocated by the labor and
industrial congresses, and we pledge
the Democratic party, if restored tc
power, to exercise their influence in
giving them practical appliction.
5. Resotred, That the attacks oil
Governors Hayes and Lee upon the
doings of the late General Assembly
are false in fact, malicious in spirit.
and unworthy of gentlemen occupy
ing their elevated positions.
6. Resolred, That the late Genera.
Assembly we've called upon to make
large and extraordinary appropriation:
to rebuild the burned Lunatic Asylum
to provide a Reform School for girls
construct a new Blind Asylum, Il
make appropriations to pay over $50,
900 of a judgment obtained in the Su
preme Court of the State in favor o.
the Life Insurance and Trust Com
pany, and to meet a deficiency of ovel
$500, 900 of the preceding Republican
Legislature, all of which, together with
the extra compensation paid to mem
bers under a law passed by a Reput'
lican Legislature, were provided fol
without an increase of the State levy,
and the appropriations in the aggregate
are much less than that of the preced.
ing Republican Legislature, without
abstracting $500, 600 from the relief
fund for the MANNED and disabled sol
dicrs and their families.

Diseaes of the Horses Foot.

At all tunes, but moro particularly
during the dry. hot months of sum
mer, the foot Of the horse is very liable
to injury and disease, When the
roads arc dry and hard. the jar and
conclusion occassiohcd by fast travel
ing is very great; the hoof also be-
comes hard and brittle, and frequent
ly splits or cracks, and owing also to
small rolling stones the sole is frequent
ly bruised, and these injuries, whe !
neglected, often extend and give ris
to more serious disorders. When
horses arc used on the farm or on soft
roads, the feet are not very liable to
conclusion, but whom they are driven 4
distance upon a hard road, and, per
haps, with shoes that arc pressing up
on the soles, then the laminc, or SEN
sitive parts become bruised and CON
gestcd, and the horse will go slightly
lame. At this season, many horses
are famed in the above manner. The
lameness may be produced after one
drive Frequently horses are pur-
chased i'll the country and then brought
to town, when they arc driven for q
few days OH our hard roads and street
without their feet being attended TO
in the least, and the shoes lying upon
the soles /; as n consequence of the jar
and conclusion, the horse will begin
to stumble and falter in his action.
which is most observable when he goes
out of a morning, or after standing
some time.
What we refer to is to be met with
mostly in the front feet, because the fore
feet are raised higher from the ground,
and are brought down with much
greater force, therefore they suffer more
frequently than the hind feet From
this continued battering, the lamina
are strained and congested, and thu
horse goes lame, especially if he
carries any weight upon his back
When standing he will keep shifting
his feet ; the heels will be hot, and the
fetlocks somewhat puffy, and in some
instances the legs will swell upwards
towards the knee. The foot taken up
land the sole tapped with n hammer
will at once cause him to evince pain.
shown by suddenly jerking the foot
When these symptoms are observed,
the horse should be Mt once laid of
work for a few days !; the shoes SHOULD
be removed, and the feet cooled by
means of wet cloths wound round the
feet, or by keeping him standing fol
several hours daily in moistencd clay
he should also have n mild dose o.
physic, and be restricted to a cooling
diet, as bran mash, or, when it can ! {
procured, green clover or vetches. IN
the course of eight or ten days, he may
be re-shod, and if he evincc the least
Tenderness leather shoes should be ap-
piled, and also a stopping of tar and
tow. By so doug, the sole is kept
soft and moist, and the jar and con,
c~ussion are to Il great extent removed
