+ n. Carpenter, who was strongly support
ed for the q. s. Senate, contrary to the
wishes of Gran county, by q. Z, Hazel
ton ia the State Senate. That the Herald
supports H. is not strange when these
facts are considered.
Third, the support of Mr. Harelton by
the Bescobel Journal is the most leg.t,
mate and easiest accounted for of ALT
is simply blowing of his horn upon an
Instrument that is dc faeto his own pri,
,ate property. The press and material
pertaining to the Boscobel JournGI the
writer sold to Geo G. Hazelton nearly
two years ago, and received the money
from his hands in payment for the same
Mr. II. then contracted with Ihos. W.
Bishop, to run the paper tcr him, and
thus it stands today. Tom. Bishop, as
everybody knows who know him at all
is democrat of simon-pure quality, and
if he owoed the establishment the Jour
pal would have hoisted the colors Of
democracy long ago. OF course there
caa be no great objection to Mr.. Hazel,
ton or any other man owning newspa,
per establishment, but it tells very plain
ly in his case how anxious he is for Office,
and looks as though he could not get n
home organ to blow for him without
buying press; and then had to 60 out
side of his party to find man to run it
who would not repudiate him after
making bis acquaintance.
These .hree are the only ones out of
fourteen Republican papers in the Sd
District that support Mr. Hazelton, and
we think we have shown conclusively
that they are all suborned witnesses,
whose testimony should have no weight
with the people, If such means are to
be successful is foisting place hunters
into power, alas for the Republican party.

Dispatches for several days have given

important fight yet had was near Saar-

HaxeItonis Who are they


1t has been so freely stated by Geo. [.
Hazelton, through the journals owned
and controlled by him, that Col Cobb
fghts him through the TRIBUNE and 9TH
er papers, that we feel called upon to
deny that Col G. has ever by word or
act attempted to influence us relative to
the course pursued in this canvass. What
we have done and said has been without
regard to whom it might please or dis
please. Indeed, (for the satisfaction OF the
honestly doubling, we conless,) since
Col Cs. return from Washington we
have learned that our course has been
far from what he deems wise or polite,
and we have reason to believe the same
is true Of other jouonals that have pur-
sued a similar course to the TRIBUNE,
So much in vindication Of Col Cobb
now we PURPOSE to review the canvass
on the part of Mr. Hazelton up to the
present time, and show who are his
rkers among the Republican press,
and why they are such.
First, and most violent in its support
of Mr.. Hagelton, is the Richland County
Republicaa, edited by jim Waggoner
who, up to within few days before the
PRONUNCIATION Of his famous article that
set us all in arms, was avowedly opposed
TO Hazelton and his schemes, and on the
strength of that sentiment he claimed
and secured the position CT census taSer
This same Waggoner, two years ago, was
one Of the most violent opponents of Mr.
Iazelton, and voted and worked against
him and his allies in the Boscobel
convention. In the face Of these facts
(and facts they are as We are prepared
to proyc) who will believe that this man
Waggoner, has not been bought for
price, to play the part he has2 Does
any one believe that when he went to
Boscobel, and thence with Mr. llazelton
to Lancaster, that the great eloquence
alone of Mr.. II. was sufficient to change
the views and sentiments that he had en-
tcrtaned for years We hardly think
it possible that the most enthusiastic adj
mirer Of lazclton's eloqaeace will credit
it with ability to accomplish this much,
Second in support of Mr. II, is the
Grant County Herald, 70. twenty years
owned and successfully managed by j.
G. Cover, the eccentric, (?) but now
published by Johnny Cover, and edited
by W. Pitt Dewey, of r. X bond noto-
riety, Gal Three years ago and later,
the Herald denounced this same Mr.
Hazelton more violently and unsparingly
than any other paper has ever done. In
1867 Mr.. Ha2elton, to tho surprise Of
everybody save those who voted for him
in the packed convention, was first nom,
mated in Grant county for the State Sen.

CONE DowN.-The Madison Democrat,
one of the most earnest supporters Of
Mr. Hazelton for Congress, says it has a
friend who will bet even that Hazel
ton is the regular nominee Of the Repub-
lican convention of the third district, in
sums of 500 to 81 900"
Now the Democrat misrepresents us
when it says that zoe offered to bet We
said he (the editor of the Democrat
could do a lively business in this district
between now and the day of convention
betting on Hazetons nomination We
have but little money on hand, and rare
ly bet, but if this "lrend Of the Demo-

The National Democrat, over the way,
expresses sympathy with the Germans
in their war with France, while the New
York World, Chicago Times, and other
leading organs of that party are hurrah
ing for the French For the benefit OF
the few that may not understand this
discrepancy, we will mention that the
Germans Of New York, Chicago and oh
er places are Republicans, while the
Germans of Iowa County are mainly
Democrats. Don't you see the milk in

THE monthly statement Of the national
debt for July, shows a decrease du-
ring the month of more than $l7000,-
600 One great relief to the heavy taxes
the people are paying is the knowledge
that it is being economically expended,
and that the public debt is being so rap
idly paid off.

THE PRUssIAN FORCE. - French
journals say the Prussians have some
10000 men in arms 100000 men at
Treves; 100000 in the Black Forest;
100000 men near Mayence; 100000 men
in Scheswig, and $4,000 near Berlin
