ILLUSTRATION.
/ can well imagine the feelings Of
the good old hard-shell Democrat.
when he came to hear about that new
departure. His sensations,,were much
akin to those of Democratic dele
gate to the national Convention, who
had been imbibing too freely, and
consequently fell fast asleep and roll.
ed under the seats during the session
of the Convention, and, uhnoticed by
the ianitor, was locked in for the night.
During his uneasy tossing about on
the floor, bu nch of lucifer matches
in his pocket took fire; smelling the
birthstone, he stretched out his neck
and calculated, ''In hell, by hokeyr'
THEY ARE INsINCERE.
] gather the fact of their insincere-
ity from the double meaning of the
words in their platform, in which they
announce their determination to ac-
ceDt the amendments From the
platform, infer that all they desire
is to get rid of them as issues, be-
cause they are so connected with their
bad record as to be unpleasant to
talk about
But they cannot succeed in evad-
ing the past. / tell them that they
will be held responsible at the bar of
history now, henceforward land for
ever. Their war record will stick to
them. Gen. Ewing may try to dodge
it. The people viii hold the party
. to its record
Their repentance is that of the cul-
prit at the bar, who begs that his
crimes may not be made an issue be-
! fore the court. Their repentance
comes too late.
''Mehi tech uiphauson," is written
in burning letters of Ere, lik Belsha-
I sher saw too late
) On the tombstone of Of the Demo-
cratic party will he inscribed, @False
, to our Country"
The Democratic leaders revealed q
hope that they will be able to over
throw these amendments by means of
= a decision of the Supreme Court
They are opposed in the main to the
spirit of the amendments Do not
: remember the fear that Democratic
ladies hod to express about beng
: forced to marry negroes? Do you
forget how they used to gather their
= little ten and twelve year Old daughters
on big platform wagons and dragged
; them over the country, holding banners
on which were inscribed such words as
these: Fathers aud Brothers. save us
from negro husbands - Democratic old
maids went over the country carrying.
flags. bearing these mo.toes:
"White husbands or none.''
And now to suppose it possible in a.
> few short weeks time, they could throw
{ themselves boldly in the embrace of the
r negro race would be TO suppose a pho
7 nome non. Now wls;.t is a phenomenon 2,
D Y on ask. Let me illustrate by an anec--
l dote:
A professor in one of our colleges was
: lecturing to a number of young men,who
e seemel rather disposed to quiz him, he
therefore resolved to punish them.
r Il will now" said the professor, scalr
your attention TO the subject of q 'phe-
nomenon.'-
/, What do you mean by phenomenon

= You have seen an apple tree? Wei
I l-t, = ~, Ill

nomenon hut TO see an cid ceB climb
up an apple tree tail-foremost to pick
the apples would be phenomenon.
? So to see Democratic state Congen-
! tion swallow the negro is aphenomenon-
;. THE KU KLUX BILL RIGHT.
g This bill is to prevent the
murder of white and colored union
men in the South. A terrible state
of affairs prevails there now, accord

committee sent there by Congress-
q Inoffensive whites are ruthlessly
! dragged from their homes, whipped,
scourged, burnt, hung, and repeatedly
have officers who tried to enforce the

The whole report is replete with horrors
that tag at the heart strings, and make
cheeks grow pale. And yet the Demo-
cratic party dcuands the repeal of this
law, and in this demand, it reveals its
true character. 1t stands forth just
:, what it is, n foe to law abiding people.
!, This Ku Klux bill, and the much de-
nounced election bill, embody this idea,
: that the strong arm of the nation must
r and shall protect from evildoers, every
citizen, These laws viii be regarded as
among the noblest movement of our
}, civilization. The Democratic party de-
= manded that the laws should be repealed
!. not that the assassin, pirate should be
/. punished, Let it be ours to see that this
foul programe shall not be carried out
Il let it be ours, rely ing on our notices,
r glory ing in our past, to stand between
Il the country and its worst foes.
n OUR CANDIDATES
= / have not the pleasure of personal
n acquaintance with your county candi-
dates. but l have confidence that they
are one and all good men. L trust and
hope that Wyandot county viii be repre-
= sented in the next Legislation, by a
II good Republican, l believe that if
every man In this county who is honest
, ly convinced that the course of the Re
: publican party is right, would vote the
' Republican ticket that you would carry
this county. Try and get all such men
to go out and vote.
