The Jackson standard. [volume] (Jackson C.H., Ohio) 1847-1888, 1870-10-20

Once more from the "Great Sanhe-
drim" of jackson county The edict has
gone forth, ''thus far shalt thou go, and
no farther"
This is the warning from petty ty-
rants TO a young man who is following
the legitimate ayocations of a Druggist.
Had these would be professionals lived
during the reign OF King James, they
might then, like George Jctfreys, with
menaces and frowns, crush men who
are following legitimate business but
the days are passed when tyrants like
Jeffreys can, by their threats and with
ering lrowns, blast for life the asplra-
tions and prospects of their fellow man.
The threats, warnings and admoniiions
of the so-cdlled jackson County Med
ical Society,"" have been source oftalk
and and ridicule for the last two years,
and what, would ask, has been the
result all of the profound deliberations,
threats and warnings of said Society |!
The people of this county know full
we'll that the actions and de iberalions
of such a mock organization have no
weight. The men who figure in that
Society no doubt think in all their sim
plicity, that in time they may frighten
some of their interiors; but men like
Mr. Wilson don't ''scdrc." lie, (Mr'
Wilson), like all other merchants, has a
right TO recommend his goods, and for
this Unprecedented offence he is brand
ed with the euphonious name Of Qtdck.
Mr.. Wilson has never announced to the
good people of Bamden that he is s
disciple Of Esculopius, yet some have
the effrontery and base ignorance tC
threaten him with prosecution for un
lawfully practicing medicine. Those
who read the proceedings Of the last
meeting Of the Society--and then j
they will take the trouble to think tha
but two persons attend the Society from
Hamden, and one Of those persons vest
ed with power to prosecute Mr.. Wilson
---can well see that it is plot TO pre-
vent Mr.. Wilson from selling drugs, a
they know if they could accomplish thi
one point, they could then with iDpu
! nifty sell calomel and quinine for fiil
{ cents 10 one dollar per dose, wherea
Mr.. Wilson will sell the same amour
of medicine for from five to ten cents.

Auotber Murder.

On last Monday, September 26, Mich
ael Behymer and S. NJ. Elliot, living in
the neighdorhood OF Hamersville in
this county, met at that town, and had
difficulty about corn, on the farm of
Behymer, Elliot being tenant of BE
hymers. Threats of a serious nature
were made at Hamersville by the par
ties. Finally both left and went home.
In the afternoon Behymer went into
his corntield to top corn, and shortly af-
terwards Elliot come to him, when a
quarrel ensued, when Behymer went TO
the fence and took up his gun, which it
seems he had there for what purpose
we are not infOrmed-andl deliberately
Ieveled and shot Elliot dead. The news
of the terrible casualty spread in the
neighborhood, and Behymer was arres-
ted and sent TO our Jail, where he now
remains. These are the facts as we learn
them from tliebest sources we could
find .r
Both these men had always maintain
ed good characters for peace and quiet
butit is said they had disagreed otter
during the summer. Behymer should
have resortcd to other means to adjus
his difficulties.-BrOcu County NctCS.

"1'he Committee on the character oI
the Rev. d. Mann, handed in The fol.
lowing report which was adopted:
I'VE, the committee appointed to en-
quire into the reports derogatory TO the
character Of Bro David Mann, beg leave
to state that said brother acknowledges
that ne ala lmpTuuehtly allow himself TO
be drawn into u newspaper controversy
in which he wrote letters beneath the
dignity and sanctity Of his ministerial
Office, That he was griovously cnsnar-
ed by provoking circumstances, and
that to extricate himself, lie used unius-
ti6able preVarication, After iull inqui-
ry into this painful affair, and in view
Of Brother Mann's evident deep humil-
iation, and the estimate made Of his
character by the members Of his charge,
whom he has served three years, we re-
commend that in view ofhis promise to
be more circumspect in the future, his
character be allowed to pass

Campbell's Victory.

We place on record the Democratic
account OF the means by which Mr..
Schenck was defeated, as given In tho
Euquirer's letter describing the satur-
MALTA over it at Dayton on Tuesday
night;
"In fact, the city has been n secthng caldron
OF political excitement ever since Saturday
when II first became known that Schcncl and
his friends would attempt TO vote the soldier
In the National Military Asylum. This brought
into the field Mr.. Vallandigham, by whose In
tense efforts and energy the atroclOus scheme
WIS defeated. Hitherto he had been taking nc
active part In tho campaign, but his entrance
Into .he struggle at this critical mo- mo-
note of the clnriOn, and infused into Il some o
his own powerful energy and enthusiasm. II
wns this spirit that achieved the victory over
which we now rejoice, ana gave birth to tht
grand Jollincation which we are now witness.
Ing"
Thus il is confessed that Mr.. Camp
bell was elected over Union soldier by
means OF the dislranohisement of the
soldiers who have been manned in their
counlry's service, aud that the disfran-
chisement of these wounded soldiers
was achieved through the extraordinary
energy OF Mr. Vnlandigham, whom
Mr. Campbell knew TO be giving treaeh-
erous aid and comfort TO the enemy
when these soldiers were giving their
lives to their country, According to
Democratic authority Mr., Campbell
owes his election to the disiranchse-
ment of national veteran soldiers Can
an honorable man, who claims to have
been a soldier of the Union, accept an
election procured by this robbery of his
comrades r. CiucmN0ti Gazette

Secretary Cox,

1t is said that Secretary Cox, Of the
Interior Department, has resigned, and
that President Grant has accepted his
resignation. q
We hope this may be true. Secre-
tary Cox is a good man in many re-
Npects, yet he often does very foolish
and improper things. His great letter
a few years ago against negro suffrage,
by which the Republicans lost ten t'op-
sand votes in the State, will be remem-
bered.
Recently a small levy was made
upon the clerks in his Department, for
the purpose of helping TO pay cam
paign expenses. The Secretary OBJ
jected to this.
Now it is impossible to carry on q
political campaign without some money.
Who ought TO furnish this money but
those who hold Office IN consequence oil
party SUGGEST Ii Mr.. Cox desires for
the whole Republican party to be put
out of Office, including himself and his
clerks, it is all right to refuse TO con-
tribute TO party success. The people
who do the hard work for party, anC
ask aud expect no Office, will not b'
likely also to contribute the necessar!
funds to insure a successful campaign
We see it intimated that the resigna
tion Of Secretary Cox has been brough
about by a pressure against him iron
Pennsylvania, in consequences of thi
refusal to permit his clerks to cOntribut
towards the success of the RePublica
party. We hope this may be true.

The new c6l6red voters OF this coun-
ty deserve credit for the manner in
which they exercised the right of suf
frage for the first time at a State cleo
tion. In this township they worked
for the Republican ticket with untiring
zeal and energy, and brought out their
forces almost to a man. A very few
not more than half dozen or SO, were
induced to vote for Loudon, but moi
one, we believe, for tie Democratic
ticket. We owe our victory in the
county in a great measure to the fdeli,
ty with which they adhered, in spite Of
the efforts made to seduce them from
their allegiance, to the great party
which secured to them the political
rights they now enjoy. -HiHsboro Ne,V',

Mr.. Audy Johnson still lives. He hae
made another speech, of which we have
no report-but that is ofno consequence.
lie proposes, however, to leave the
Democratic" party and to become "a
Conservative. We have never been
able to make out exactly what "a Con.
servative" is, but Mr.. Johnson, not be-
ing anything in particular, would make
no doubt, a politician Of that stripe.
Our great apprehension has always
been that, in swinging round the cir
Gle. this eminent statesman might
get back into the Republican party ;
but, inasmuch as we see no difference
between "a Conservative and "a Dem,

Another Case of Spontaneous
COmbustiOm.

.. So L SOIMDWSlAOms 4.
The recent great fire in Chicago is
now supposed to have been spoptane,
ously originated by a bundle of greasy
rags. How long will it be before peO-
pie generally understand that such rags
are dangerous3 The general careless
ness in the storage of these and similar
dangerous substances is only equaled
by that in the domestic use of matches
We saw a business man the, other day
throw without thinking an unextinguish-
ed match into his paper waste basket.
We not unlrequently step on matches in
walking through public buildings or on
the ferry boats which detonate under
our feet How manly men, women, or
children when they drop a match never
think of STOPPING to pick it up, but take
a new one from the box, rather than
subject themselves to slight inconve-
nience, which might perhaps prevent
the destruction of thousands Of dollars
worth ofproperty. TO always extih-
gnish matches before throwing them
away, aud always pick them up when
dropped, are habits which should be
taught to every child. -.Scienhfc Amer
