ONCE MORE TO THE BREACH, CAPTAis.-
a star has risen on the gloom that has en-
veloped the Union since its last desperate
attempt to manufacture political capital for
next springs election, and it again returns
to its desposble attempts. For months the
CHi0.l has hestated et no misrepresentation
and false statements TO make capital against
the present administration. First it attacks
the police, then the mayor, then the council,
then tho streets, then the sidewalks, then
the various holes its editor stumbles iLto
and driven TO despair it goes the rounds
again and again, until every body is dis
with us igrorant, false and malicious state
ments. 1t is so evident what its object is
and we have so often corrected its foolish
ness that we had about concluded to wais
no more time with its desperate folly. Blu
this morning it again makes number o
false statements which need contradicting
When people know that the ideas in its
article come from Mr.. Star, it will perhaps
ba sufficient contradiction. He has found
less complaint with the present counci
than any other for four year
past and it id fact he
hasn't had fight in the alley complained
Of this year, and before he had one mos
every week with some of the women in tn
vicinity. Now the filing up of that ale
mas destroyed his wallowing place, and c
course he wants it dug out. Murdocl
should not have filed it up. As for tn
stagnant pools on Rock River street, it i
strange that they can be seen only by std'
light.
We sincerely hope the Union will continu
in its present way, as it makes dsmocrati
votes every time for a
know that the present administration ha
done more for the city and at less e1pens
than any other administration in the las
ten years. and every man in the city know
it, SO the Union had better let this matter re,
and stick to Murrin. He is about the onl
subject 1t is thoroughly posted on, unless
be "Bourbon intact " or "whisky straight
and "Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup"

When wc consider that Stone aud
Clark had been canvassing that
county for many days and that
Stone went up there with his trunk
full Of Pella Blades and had distri.
butod them ill over The COUNTY, and
that toughridgo had not been there
at all, it may be taken as pretty
conclusive that as Toledo township
goes by such an overwhelming
majority, so goes the county and the
entire District.

Chillicothe.

A reliable and esteemed corresron-
dent at Chillicothe, writes us that
"One Doctor Richie, of Abba, has
spcnt several days in this township,
working for Stone, and against
Loughridge, and circulating tho
Pella Blade. I atn satisfied that
Stone is making a strong effort to
pack as far as he can, our approach
ing county convention"
From this and other indubitable
evidence before us, we are convinced
that Stone and his emissaries arc to
spread themselves over this county,
from now until the convention, ard
with these false stories, and imported
papers full ofslanders of JudgeLough-
ridge, are determined if possible, by
fair means or foul, to overcome the
overwhelming majority in this county
for l.oughridge, and secure a part
at least Of the township delegates for
Stone. All we have to say to the
republicans OF this county is, that
eternal vigilance is the price Of
liberty; that if they desire to sec
honesty rewarded, and sculduggery
punished, they should be at the
usual places Of holding elections, on
Saturday, July Both, at four pm,
pdnctually to tho minute, and see
that from every township mono but
Loughridge delegates are selected
aud that they be. instructed to vote
for him first, last, and all the time
and then everything will be we'll.

We find floating in our exchanges
the following directionsto accomplish
a sure result: "Young men it is easy
to be nobody. Go to the drinking
saloons to spend your leisure hours.
You need not drink much now, just
n little beer or some other drink. In
the meantime play dominoes or
something else to consume, time, so
that you will be sure not to read any
useful book; or If you do read, let it
be the dime novel of the day. Thus
so on keeping your stomach full,
head empty, and yourself busy play

years you'll be nobody, unless you
should tarn out to BIO drunkard or
. professional gambler, either of
which is to be worse thaa nobody.
There arc q great many in our town
Just ready to graduate and become
nobodies."
