this regulates the retail price at OrDana,

one third higher
1t will be seen that the duties here

tration averaged we believe 24 cents
on the dollar: less by one per cent than
the revenue tariff contemplated in the

Of the present enormous duties is that
many of them are 50 high as to simply
prohibit importatiOn-yeilding no duty

soldiers Monument.

SINCE our last issue the stOne-work of
the Soldiers Monument has been COM
pleted. AS it now stands it has cost
100000. The Stone used is Quincy
Granite; the work was done by Raekle
& Mosier of Columbus o.
In the recess on the North side will
be placed a bronze battle piece, that has
been contracted for at 100000. Thus
making the cost of themonument, with
out statue 100000, the whole of which
has been subscribed but $500, remains
uncollected.
The Bronze Statue which will be pla-
ced in position as soon as cast, will be of
a soldier, heroic size, and will cost about
100000.
A bronze gun has been donated by
Congress from which the Statue will be
cast. Our citizens will be expected to
subscribe the required 100000 before
the monument can be completed.
In the foundation were placed copies
of late newspapers, coins, list of City
and County officers, brief history of the
undertaking, list of soldiers from Cham
paign County and an old relic in the
shape of report of the Champaign
County Bible Society in 1888. How
long will these relics remain concealed
from the sight of man?
We learn from the officers of the
Monumental Association that the City
Council will surround the Monument
with a neat iron railing inside of which
the ground will be sodded.

less than mean submission to all of the
usurpatiOns of q despOtic revolutionary
party, who may, for the time being,
have possession of the government
1t means that when the party in power
adopts any measure, however unCOnsti-
tutiOnal. unjust or ineXpedient, and
however much the Democracy may Op-
pose it previous to its adoption, the
Democratic party should tamely turn
round and abjectly acquiesce in it. The
adoption of such a principle would
make the Democratic party a mere ten
der to the Republican party-a set OF
mere servile liekspittles. 1t would
make expediehcy, not principle, the
criterion of the Democratic party. The
object of such policy is said to be to get
the power, to get a majority of the peO-
pie on the Democratic side. Such being
the object, the advocates of such poll
cy can accomplish their purpose much
more expeditiOusly by going over to the
Republican party, bag and baggage,
and blending with and making them
selves component parts of the Republi-
can party. This policy sets at naught
all principle. It makes success, no mat
ter by what means, the test Of political
integrity.
These advocates of accepting the
situation would have cOunseled Jeffer-
son and the Democratic party, who sup
ported him to have acquiesced in the
alien and sedition laws. They would
have advised General Jackson to have
accepted the re-charter of the United
States bank as an accomplished fact
The old hero would have spurned such
advice with indignation.
I
ty is founded upon principle. Its OBJ
ject is not to secure the 'spOils of Office,
but to establish and maintain great
principles in the management of our
Republican form of government. If
this submission policy is to prevail we
shall be obliged to abandon all that.
The party in power has changed the
construction heretofore given to the
Constitution, and has greatly enlarged
and extended the powers ofgOvernment
itself Must we accept that? 1t has
consolidated and is consolidating power
in the hands of the Federal Govern
ment, which will eventually make the
government a monarchy or despOt-
ism! Must we accept that? It has
fOisted into the Constitution, at the
point of the beyOnet, an amendment
which deprives each State of the right
to regulate suffrage, within its limits
one Of its reserved rights, of which it
cannot be deprived without its own in
consent. Must we accept
that? 1t has granted millions of pub
lie lands to swindling railroad corpora
tions Must we accept that, and if
we ever get the power go on and give
away the balance? We must do all
this and more if we adopt the policy of
these advocates of acquiescence. We
must eat all we have said in denuncia-
ton of the tyranny, rascality and wick
edness of the most corrupt party that
ever cursed this or any other country

THE sentence of Brooklyn, \. Y, pol
iticians for illegal voting in November
last, was confirmed yesterday. The SEN
tences range from ten days to three
months.
WIsDOM.-Here are a few pithy SEN
tences which are truly suggestive: SOr-
rows best antidOte is employment.
Beauty, devoid of grace, is like a hook
without bait. COnfine your expenses
or they viii cOnfine you. IfyOu cannot
do as YOU wish, do as well as you can.
Promises, made in time of affection, re-
4uire a better memory than people COM
monty possess. When you hear man
say life is but a dream, tread on his cOrns
and wake him up-life is real. Be deaf
10 the quarrelsOme, blind to the scorn,
er, and dumb to those who are mischiev-
ously inquisitive.
SECRETARY Cox has succumbed to
the political pressure. Some time ago
he was praised all over the country for
the firm stand he took in refusing to al
low the clerks in his department to be
forced into the payment of assessments
for political purposes. It was step in
the right direction and good reform,
but unfortunately he has not been able
to hold out The demands for money,
especially for the Pennsylvania cam
paign, have been so great that the Secre-
tary has agreed that the Pennsylvania
committee shall be allowed to collect
money from his clerks. He adds that
subscriptions must be voluntary; but
every clerk will understand that a fail
Ure to contribute will make him a mark
ed man and he will therefore be compel
led to cOntribute.-ObiO Statesman.

TIE GovERNMENT sPEECII.

The anxious Congressman are busy il
their vocation ofputting forth the speech
fixed on in caucus at Washington. One
Of the leading points in it, is the
amount Of Bonds paid at double cost tC
the people since they have acted under
Grant. They always avoid going back
to Johnson's time, when things were
pretty much in the hands of their own
select thieves.
The present story propagated by caucus
order is this, that the Grant admins
tration or Boutwell, have paid this year
112 millions of the Debt. They conceal
the fact that they had previously in
creased it 20 millions, which reduces
their decrease Of debt to 80 millions.
They talk as if nothing of the kind had
been done before. But the truth is Sec
retary AIcCOlloch had reduced the debt
from its highest point 147 millions.
If the reduction of debt is to be bOasted
of, tell the whole truth. Both are utter
ly wrong for it is done by paying for the
bonds double the cost of them and the
money to pay with is wrung from the
people by oppressive taxation, and

EDITOR of URBANA UNION.-There
are 50 many things that we might write,
as happenings here, we hardly know
where to commence or what to write, as
we have not time to write it all, and we
do not wish to burthen yOu with a long
communication.
The Fair passed off quietly and was
very interesting; the attendance was
much larger than we expected. Thurs
day the Sd day of the Fair was a great
day, Notwithstanding attractions at sur
rounding places at the same time, tO-wit:
the County Fair at Columbus, the
County Fair at Xenia Green County
and the Grand Firemen's TOuTna-
ment at the City of Urbana. The re-
ceipts at the gate were much more than
they were on the corresponding day at
the Fair here last year; the Fair was
well attended each day, and we may
now set it down as a grand success. The
total receipts being much larger than
they were last year. Everything passed
off in harmony: we supposed the re-
ceipts and attendance would fall short
this year, in consequence of the near
approach of the State Fair, and the two
County Fairs on hand at the same time
and the great attraction in Urbana; yet
it is gratifying to know that such was
not the case. I. K.
