From N. Y. Tribune.l
RIGHT RONGs NO MAN.


The Tribune having stated the unde-
truth that the XVIII Amend
ment noWise affects or inter eres with our
Naturalization laws, in exposure OF the
California stampede to Sham DemOcra-
cy under the mistaken apprehension
that the XVIII Amendment would make
voters OF the Chiuese, The Trenton True
American comments as follows:
This, then. is the game. Citizenship is to
be made the My test of voting, and the
franchise being secured to the negroes as
citizens OF the United States, the n~0turGliza-
ton tQ10S are to be amended so as to prevent
Irish, English, German, Gnd other European
born residents, as well as all others who come
here from other countries from becoming
citizens, in d to prevent their becoming
voters"
If the XVIII orany other Amendment
could preclude faIsehoOd and m~isreOre-
sentation, we should work and pray
z~-alously for its adoption. Unhappsly,
however, such persons as the writer of
the above quotation cannot be restrain
ed from lying by any process less harsh
than wninginZ their necks, and We are
IMPOSED to Capital Punishment. The
XVIII Amendment nowise affects Nat
nraIization. and the pretense b a "the
Natura izdliOu laws are to be so amend
I'd" as to deprive immigrants OF any
right now accorded them, is II falsehond
concocted to excuse a conscious inf
deity to Democratic principle and
natural human right.

ticket finding that it was % be great
II weakened by the withdrawal of Mr..
Lechard's name, sought resource for
covering and curing that weakness in
fraud, only exceeded in boldness by
the necessity to which Mr.. Leonard's
refusal had brought them. A commu-
nication ostensib1y coming from Mr..
Leonard, and purporting to be a tCith-
draiUGI of his name from the peoples
ticket, was sent to US from the Herald
office for publication in the GAZETTE.
This communication was signed with
the name of ga. D. Leonard which
fact alone shows that the communities
ton was spurious, as Mr.. Leonard's
name is A. j. Leonard. But to make
assurance doubly sure, we showed this
communication to Mr.. Leonard him
self, and he distinctly and positively
stated that he not only qseUer signed It,
but HeUeT authorized It. Yet such is the
high-handed game played by the Dem
Oeratic clique that they have had the
assurance to publish this same commu-
nication in the Herald as genuine At
the same time they have the impu-
dence to represent Mr.. Leonard as a
supporter of the peoples ticket, when
he has informed as with his OWL lips
that he is a supporter of the regular
Republican ticket, and will vote for
its candidates.
Now could impudence and fraud
further go than this ? What are we to
think of the pretended pledges of the
Democracy to support the peoples
ticket" when such games as this are
played2 When a cause gets iut5 such
a strait that fraudulent and spurious
communications have to be resorted to
in order to give it the appearance of
honesty and deceney before the public,
it must be in a bad way certainly. Not
only has MI. Leonard been deceived in
this matter, but an attempt has been
made to deceive the public, which is
still worse. The authors of this decep-
ton had better keep silent about other
peoples moral character, as well as
about the use of improper means tC
secure nominations. Our convention
and candidates are lot to be 1tnpugned
by individuals who deem fraud dnc
Forgery to be honest and legitimate.
Delaware gazette. [volume] (Delaware, Ohio) 1855-1886, 1869-10-08
BETMEEN Us BIZ rRuTH,

We are accused by some of those con-
cerned in the independent movement
with having denounced ali b candi-
dates on the peoples ticket as DEM
ocrats. Not at all. On the contrary,
we have explicitly stated that the tick
ct was chiefly made up ''of persons Who
were candidates for nomination before
the late Republican Convention" The
presumption is fair and palpable that
all such persons were Republicans at
least at the time their names were can-
vassed by the party. They may be so
still in political belief, but the scheme
to which they have Lens their names is
Democratic. 1t had lis inception in
Democratic circles, ana has, by choice
of that party taken the place of it's
usual nominations. The peoples
ticket" is the Democratic ticket, and
every candidate on It expects the sup
port of the Democratic party. Its can
didate for Representative is a pronounc-
ed and lifelong Democrat, and bis
name is adroitly sandWiched between
those of candidates claiming to be Re-
publicans, in the hopeshat its real char
aeter will escape detection. His sue
cess, and indeed the success of any can
didate on this ticket, would involve a
Republican defeat, and be regarded as
a Democratic triumph.
Now, is not this a fair statement of
the case? We haveu used no hard words
toward any of these gentlemen. We
have not befouled them with epitbets
or personalities. We have not i'm
pugned their motives. While col
demning their course, we have treated
them, n and all, with courtesy and
while we have Aeferely, as the ca e
deserved dealt with the movement in
which they are engaged, and have not
hesitated to disclose its true character
to the public, there is no one of them
who can att eeh to us any just for
complaint.
Delaware gazette. [volume] (Delaware, Ohio) 1855-1886, 1869-10-08

James Cox, our candidate for Treas
urer. is a farmer, a Successful business
man and a gentleman whose character
is above reproaeh. The people have a
genuine peoples candidate in Mr.. Cox,
and in his election will secure an eff
Gent and thoroughly competent officer.
Not a single objection has been made
to him, SO far as we know, even by his
political enemies. We take it for grant
ed that no Republican viii scratch his
name, and believe many Democrats
will signify their desire to exalt the
pubic good above partisan feeling by
giving him their support.
Delaware gazette. [volume] (Delaware, Ohio) 1855-1886, 1869-10-08

Thereis not a single charge ofoficial in
