Political Differences.

It is a little strange to us why some
men cannot differ and discuss those
differences in an open, candid spirit'
without descending to the %reprehen-
sible practice Of ~beaeaning each 9TH
er. AID to the disgusting practice of
personal illusions? We are, for iH-
stance, a Democrat we accord to our
Radical OF Republican friends a per-
feet right to "pitch" into the party
with all the vim" they possess show
CD the inconsistencies of the party in
the strongest light possible; blaze
away at the party, expose all its vii
l~ianies; in Short defeat it if possible
by open fair and honorable means
On our asart we expect to attack Radi-
calism with all the energy we possess ;
we shall hold up its Inconsistencies to
the gaze of the world. We shall ex-
pose its corruption endeaVor to show
wherein it has failed to meet the ext
gencies of the times in a word, shall
attack the party as a party, and the
official and public acts of those seek
ing public positions. In this we
have no personal quarrel with any
man. Indeed there are members of
the party for whom-while we can
are erroneous, and if successfully car
ried out, will ultimately prove the
ruin of republican government,-we
have none but the kindest feelings
personally. We see no reason why
political differences should make per-
sonal enemies. 1t need not if each
man will accord to others the right he
clainas for himself-thatpffree thought
and free speech
We earnestly urge our friends to
carefully avoid personal abuse or
personal illusions calculated to en-
gender ill feelings. Vituperation
is not argument and can new
CT lead to conviction. Let all your
conversations and arguments be with
Il view to receive or impart informa-
ton, and be conducted in a spirit be-
coming a gentleman, not with a spirit
characteristic of the rowdy or black
guard. Men must differ, it is as ma
tural as to breathe in fact, republican
government rests upon parties hold
ing different opinions. If all men
We're one, politically, republicanism
could exist no longer, but would as
sumo an entirely differ ent shape. Diff
erence of opinion being essentially
necessary to the perpetuity of republi-
lean government, let each accord to
his neigbbor full and free liberation.

To Our Readers

Those who look through the Demo
Graf for any information other than
political just now we fear will find a
slim amount of Jews or general read
Ing matter. We trust, however, that
they will bear with us until after the
November election, when we promise
to devote much less space, TO the dis
cussion of politics: The Issues for the
next two weeks will be taken up al
most entirely with political reading,
and every line should be carefully
scanned and pondered over by the
honest voter.

Malfeasance in Official Stations

Under the present administration,
there has been more populations and
frauds perpctrated than under all the
administrations of the Government
from Washington down to the present
time. Stealing and dishonesty on all
sides, is the order of the day. 1t has
been so common that a defalcation of
half a million does not produce the
least rifle on the current of corrup-
ton and m~alfeasancc in official sta-
tions. Even the President himself
openly receives large gifts from dis
honest men, and i'll turn rewards them
with lucrative appointments as fit op-
portunitics to plumber and steal.-
These appointments are confirmed by
the Senate, through rings and jobbers,
for bargains and rewards in every cot-
ceivable shape, from land g:abs down
to a Cadetship at West Point. Thus
the peoples money is rccklessly and
dishonesty squandered to maintain a
ring of pluuderers in power. The
Government itself, for most of the
year. swings between the Capital,
Long Branch and the race track, sport
ing IL fast horses, cigars and sanga-
rees. And in addition to all other
abuses. the whole Cabinet and " Y
ofice-holder, amounting to sixty thou
sand, have been, IN neglect Of public
affairs, out in the States clectioneering
for a succession of another folr years
of plumber and misrule. But their
salaries still went on. They use the
money of the people to brow-beat
them into the support of Grant and
his robbers
BY a careful estimate, at least one
third of the vast revinews collected
from the labor of the toilihS millions,
is thus squahdered and never Teaches
the Treasury. These deficiencies are
covered up by mis-statements, and it
is admitted that the Treasury books
will not balance by nearly II hun
bred millions, and yet Boutwell, is out
on the stump advocating IL succession
under the guise of Civil Service re-
forms, This system of plumber has
reached over and impoverished the
States, crippled and disabled by the
war. By carpet-bag governments in
a%ugurated eitEer at Washington or at
Long Branch, many of the southern
States have been financially ruined
a bonded debt of many hundred mil
lions have been forced UPON them
finder the guise of reconstruction, AMI
no alienation is now left them, but
Republication. How long will the peo.
pie tolerate such wholesale robbery
When will they awaken to al interes1
. in public affairs, and by their vote.
drive this army of bloed suckers and
plunderers from their present posi-
tons? They have dishonesty mad'
their millions, and in Gods iiame le
us have an Inside RECKONING of affair
at Washington as well as in Preblt
county. AS honest and liberal heart

There Is a moral in the Preble cohh-
ty election which politicians should
not overlook. Political leaders and
ofice-holders may become corrupt,
but the people in due season make the
discovery. Buying, selling and trad
ing offices must sooner OF later lead
ito defeat. Combinations, bargains,
arrangements made by leaders, may
look plausible, but the very sacrifice
of principle to arrive at the trade,
more than defeats the beautiful COM
b~inations, and loss of character is then
added to the pangs of defeat. Men of
honest consciences can bear the mis-
fortune of defeat, but the dishonest
never can. al.

Did the "routine" editor of the Reg

the Saturday before the election, and
which he told the voters to look out
for? Did he see the "Campaigner"
that he prepared "the minds of the
people" forg Did the lie he publish
ed about John Townsend in the last
issue so it could not be answered, that
he .sneered at soldiers and beat tin

rance that he stated that there was
not an "average of than one

Masks AND FACES Ladies who mask
their faces and uecks with ensmels en-
danger their health to no purpose. The
plaster work deceives nobody. There
is but one article known which will
restore q blemished complexion or c:e-
ate external brilIiancy and bloom where
they have never heretofore existed, and
that article is Hagan's Magnolia Balm.
1t performs this toilet miracle by infus-
ing vitality into the skin. The floral
and herbal juices Of which it is COM
posed gently stimulate the circulation
in the minute blood vessels, and brace
the network OF nerves through which
they pass. Thus quickeued and
strengthened the external covering
soon acquires fresh and healthful hue,
and everv trace OF sallowness disap-
pears. The pslest cheeks derive from
the beautifying baptism OF this delight
full cosmetic a warmer hue, and the
arms, hands and neck, blonde lustre
which the chsrlatars, who profess to
make ladies "beautiiu! forever with
their poisonous cement, can never hope
| to initiate.
