A bill to amend an act for fixing the
rate of interest.
Sec. 1. Be 1t enacted By the Gener-
al assembly Of the State Of Ohio, That
the parties to any bond, bill, promis-
sary note or other instrument of wri-
ting for the forbearance or payment OF

ment in writing.

Hard on Butler.

The Cleveland Herald, a leading
Republican paper thus comments on
the war temper of "Beast Butler"
General Butler wants war with
England. He wants it right away.
The Butlerian blood is at fever heat,
and the Butlerian fist is shaken with
malicious energy in the face of poor
old Mr.. Britain. The Butlerian the
DRY is that wa is economy that it is
cheaper to support a few dozen ships
of war, and a few thousand soldiers,
with the necessary expenditure of pow
der, shot, shell, iron, brass, and steel,
than TO pay for such extended cable
telegrams as the late Secretary of
State INDUCED in, even at the reduced
tariff soon to be in force. But even
should Secretary Fish be as verbose as
Secretary Seward, isn't there a cheap
er way to circumvent him than by go
ing to war? Can't the cable be cut,
and the Secretary reduced to the cheap
medium of the mails? As for the
"twaddle about the Alabama claims"
that General Butler would escape by
war, the country can stand q good
deal of that kind of stuff without per-
ishing. 1t has stood several speeches
by b. F. Butler"
The States and Union. [volume] (Ashland, Ohio) 1868-1872, 1869-06-02

the Democracy have never seen cause
to change their name, or fersake their
organization. 1t is now as it was
when Thomas Jefersons its first great
National victory, in 1900. 1t is re-
markable how persistent are political
organizations, and how, from genera
ton to generation, people follow the
same party banner. Thus the ances-
tors of the pretended Republicans of
to-day, who were in this country at
the time, nearly all voted against JEFF
ferson, and Madison, and Jackson,
New England was strongly Federal
in 1900, and was decidedly National
Republican in 1923. She voted against
Jefferson and jackson with the same
unanimity with which she opposed
Horatio Seymour in 1868. The
strength of the Democracy of the
East in 1900 was in New York and
Pennsylvania, and it is there to-day.
The South was Jefferson Democratic
in 1900, as it would be now if a fair
vote was allowed its citizens. Even
in counties we find this adherence TO
party. The old jackson stronghol6s
In Ohio were Butler, Fairfield, Brown,
Monroe, Crawford and Licking Coun-
ties, and the anti-Jackson counties
were Ashtabula, Lake, Cuyahoga,
Warren, Greene and Clinton.
The great Jackson county in Penr-
sylyania was Berks, and the anti-Jack-
son men were principally in Lances-
ter and Allegheny. So it is row.
the people are Democratic where in
the olden time they supported the old
chiefs, Jefferson and Jackson, and the
rule stands good on the other side.
In private life that man who is
known by many aliases and changes
of name is always a dishonest cheat ;
and we are of the opinion that they
will hold good in regard to public and
political organizations who resort to
that deception to attain their ends.
There is not a male-factor or a swind-
Ter in all the land who has as many
aliases as that party which has always
pitted itself against the Democracy

Disunionists.

When the war between the North
and South was inaugurated, it was de-
clared by the leaders. of the abolition
party, that its purpose wa to prevent
a dissolution of the Union. 1t was
then asserted that without the consent
of all the States, under the Constitu-
ton, no State had the right to with
draw from the confederation. Upon
this theory, it was claimed the Gen
eral Government had the right to wage
a war against the seeding States to
compel them to remain. That war
was prosecuted for nearly four years
with all the military power of the
North, when by exhaustion the South
was compelled to lay down her arms
and submit. So the Southern States
failed to secede. Undermined in the
Union, subject to our laws. But Gen.
Grant and his advisers, in and out of
now assume that the South
is out of the Union and cannot get
in again until her people are willing
TO submit to the most humiliating
What party then is the real
disunion party? We answer without
the Modern, Abolition, Re
publican Party. That party is a dis
union party; and is making every eff
fort to destroy the Government franz
ed by our fathers.

the majority of which enter into the
consumption of every farmers house
hold in the land have long been taxed.
The iron of which the plowshare is
made is taxed; the saw that fashions
the beam is taxed the cotton that
clothes the little ones is taxed; the
coat he wears to shield him from the
weather is taxed ; the nails that fasten
the roof over his head are taxed; the
drugs and medicines with which, in
sickness, he endeavors to postpone
death or allay the agony of pain are
taxed; and now, not satisfied with
covering the whole man and his dwell
ing with taxation, the vampire must
change its nature, and prey upon the
stomach. The farmer is declared by
the Commissioner to be a manufacture
er, and to be taxed as such for every
peck of wheat he may grow and con-
vert into -four, to feed even his own
hungry children. They may cry for
bread, but the father must give them
half, in order that by saving the re-
mainder he may satisfy the craving
NAV of the tax gatherer. This is the
result of Radical rule-the good Lord
only knows how long the people are to
be subject to it. Grapes are not made
of thorns, or figs of thistles, and it
will not be by means like this that our
waste places will be populated and our
deserts covered with blossoms-Ohio
Patriot.

rival of her parents, who have been
advised by telegraph of the calamity
which has befallen them.
The negro refuses to make any ex-
PLANTATION of his conduct, and insists
that he had made no arrangements
for an elopement, and knew nothing
whatever of the young lady's wherea-
bouts. How this most unfortunate
domestic scandal will terminate re-
mains for future developments to de-
termine. The modern Desdemona, it
is stated, is sincere in her unnatural
attachments, and professedly awaits
the fulfllment of her hopes of love in
the future.

and told a woeful tale, by having got
acquainted with a nice young man at
the Hotel, who took a walk with him
up Superior street. This young man
was met by another one who represent
ed to the first that he had money i'm
mediately to pay express charges, their
goods could not leave the city that day.
The shoemaker on request loaned
S75 to his friend upon promise ofpay-
ment as soon as he could get a draft
cashed at a certain office in Hoffman's
Block. The friend went into the block
on n side and came out on the other,
but was cen no more.
Friday afternoon, about six o'clock,
DIR. Ritty, an old resident of Miami
City, near Dayton, Ohio, committed
suicide by shooting himself through
the heart with a pistol, during a fit of
insanity caused by illness. He was
over seventy years of age, and had a
large family. He was well-known
throughout the Ohio Valley.
Attempt to commit suicide.-Mr.
David Gracy, residing in Grain town
ship, this county, in the vicinity of In
dian Mill, made two attempts, a few
days ago, to take his w life. He
was unsuccessful, however, in both
attempts, and was still living at last
accounts.-U Upper Sandusky Republican.
A Burglar was committed at the
house of Mr.. Isaac S~wadener, in Be-
vercreek township, last Saturday night,
by some rascals who are yet at large.
They got in at the back door, and en-
tered the bedroom occupied by Owen
Swadener and his family, and riled
his p~antaloons of a pocket book con
tanning about $50, and also took a
watch valued at $50, which was hang
ing on a nail in the next room. The
next morning they were tracked on the
road to Frost's Station, and it was
found that they had also stopped on
the way at Mr.. J. B Shines house,
where they succeeded in raising the
kitchen windows, and placing under it
a stick of wood, at which point it is
supposed they were frightened away
by the dogs. Mr.. Slime was walked
by the noise, and on looking about
discovered two men making tracks
southwark. This is the third time
within a year that the Swadeners have
been robbed at this house.-X1a

A New SwindIe.

The Commissioner of Internal Rev
enue, Columbus, Delano, has decided
that farmers are manufacturers. They
are therefore liable to be taxed uron
what they produce just as the manu-
facturers Of New England are to
be taxed on what they make. The
farmers are In the worst fix of the two,
for they have no tariff to protect them.
The manufacturer collects his tax
from the consumer and is unhurt.-
The farmers can't add their tax to
the price of their grain for they raise
more than the country consumes, and
having to work against a full supply
cannot put their figures UP at pleasure.
This decision will virtually rob the
agricultural class OF every dollar of
revenue which it eompels them to
pay. DIN this State it will operate
with peculiar severity. The taxation
already tries the farmers to the utmost
point of endurance. An additional
burden especially a heavy one like
this, will render farming operations in
Eastern Ohio entirely proftless. The
people of I'll State have gone badly
astray in their worship of strange
gods, but this bitter penalty will 90
far toward opening their eyes. The
Enquirer says:
The farmers of the West have been
and are taxed for the benefit of New
England in everything they wear, in
every article with which they can add
to the comforts of their families, in
I'LL by which then can adorn their
house Or improve their fields. -Four

Total

The value of these lands at Govern
ment prices would be twohundred and
seventeen million one hundred and
thirty-nine thousand and four hundred
dollars. Quite a sum to dispose of in
so brief a space as five weeks, had the
Senate complied with the wishes of the
agents and lobbyists. We have not
taken into account the numerous 9th
,er schemes in which the Government
is asked, as in the bill for q railroad
from Cairo to the Rio Grande, for six
per cent. thirty-year bonds TO the
amoGnt of 500, SOC, 600, the hundreds
of millions.
Fortunately these schemes are yet
to be considered. 1t must not be
taken for granted that the introduc-
ton of them settles the business.
That is but the entering wedge. When
Congress reassembles, the agents and
lobbyists will be as prompt as soldiers
at a morning call of the muster-roll.
And these are-but samples Of a multi
tude of such schemes not yet fully de
veloped, but likely to be far enough
advanced by next winter to warrant
their presentation to Congress and
their reference to committees. But
is it not time to call a half. If any
portion of the public land is to be pre-
served, for settlement at Government
there must be q general pro-
test against such disposition of them
by Congress. The people cannot take
up this matter a moment too soon, and

How the Public Lands Are Going.

Vast as is the public domain of the
United States, in a very few years the
whole of it, available as farming or
mineral land, will have been taken up,
if the present system of large grants
for railroad and other purposes is per.
sisted in. This domain belongs to
the people, and so much as remains OF
it ought to be reserved for actual set
tiers. The result of the present sys
tenn will be pernicious, creating great
monopolies, and putting into the hands
of a few men the mean of almost il
limitable wealth.
The policy of granting right of way
and lands to railway companies has
been carried to an extreme, and the
upshot has been the organization of
corporations and the surveying Of
routes, with the object of getting hold
of the land rather, than the constitute
ton of roads to satisfy a public want
or a commercial necessity. The whole
business has grown to be an enormous
abuse. These companies keep in
Washington, during the session of
Congress, their Agents and paid lobby.
lists, to labor with Senators and Rep
resentatives for their special interests,
and were it possible to get at the o r
ruption thus e~ngendered, it would be
the greatest sensation of the day.
To show the activity of these agents,
the New York Eoen,ng Post publishes
a summary of thirty-one bills, contem-
grants of public lands, or
bonds, or credits, or all three, which
were introduced into the Senate dur
ing the last five weeks of the first ses-
sion of the Forty-frst Congress
