10 the Editor orme State Journal: aH 81.
Our new City Council is now fully organ.
lZed and has gone to work vigorously in the
discharge OF their responsible duties. They
nave selected their committee, appointed
the police force, the superintendent of water
works, keeper Of cemetery, and various
other important officers. Not many changes
Were made, as good and faithful officers,
and true and tried Republicans were filling
the most of the places in a manner wholly
acceptable to the majority of the people,
Where changes were made, it is believed
great improvement has been the result.
The number of offices at the disposal of
the City Council is very large for a CITY of
our size, and it is a subject of. congratula-
ton that this large patronage can be be-
slowed upon worthy Republicans, whose
efficiency and good conduct is q source of
pride to US all.
In view of all these facts, you can imag-
Inc the indignation created among the Re-
puohcans of this city by the recent start
ing development of a plot entered into by
a lew would-be prominent Republicans,
VINO Tor selfish purposes entered into a con-
splracy with certain leading Democrats by
which these few Republicans agreed to turn

let us be informed of the facts. We have

OCCASIONALLY.
The Daily state journal. [volume] (Alexandria, Va.) 1868-1874, 1872-07-08

The Chicago Times, the great Democra.
tic organ in the Northwest, is dealing oui
voley after volley of most emphatic thun.
der against Greeley. The Times is able.
vigorous and direct on the Greeley party.
and leaves no n in doubt as to the mean
ing it intends to convey. In a late issue it
says:
"The Times would like to ask Mr.. w.
w. O'Brien what business a man who adj
yocates the candidacy of Horace Greeley
has in a Democratic convention, n more
than a man who advocates the candidacy of
Grant? Is Greeley any more q Democrat
than Grant? If so, in what has he shown
iii? ls it in his lifelong advocacy Of " the
most Infamous system Of public robbery
ever devised by man?" Is it in his
vehement ~denunciation of Democrats as
:" inherent villains" and of Democracy
as the sum of all yillainies ? Is It
in his violent championship of all the
military legislation of Grants admin
istration? Is it in his advocacy of the
bayonet election law, and his expression of
regret that it was not extended to all state
and local elections? If these facts do not
furnish eyinence of Greeley's democracy. is
that evidence to be found in his declaration,
made with respect to the democratic party
less than n year ago "Niay it be written
on my grave that | was never its follower.
and lived and died in nothing its debtor! D
Ii Mr.. O'Brien, or any other person who
has got the Greeley livery on, expects to
compel other men to put on that livery by
such insolent denunciations, or by the pro-
cess OF packing conventions which was ex-
hbited at Peoria, he will probably live to
discover his mistake.

On October Is, 1867, Horace Greeley
wrote thus: To smoke is q Democratic

to drink rum is that virtue in the s%uperla-

tanning the author now, all nausea being
overcome by a mirage in the dim distance

The hybrlds sometimes claims a full
share OF the negro vote. But every authen-
tlcated fact disapproyes this claim and a
correspondent OF the Tribune, writing from
North Carolina, is forced to admit that
every negro is a Republican, It should
be remembered, also, that the negroes had
no vote at the last Presidential election.

state. Now, If they are all Republicans.

An ingenious editor out West has been
analyzing the names of Grant and Greeley
with the following funny result: s'Both
have the same handle, CIR. One has sufix
ant, which means Industrious, prudent.
full OF work, forethought and energy the
other has the suf1ix eel-y, which means
wrlggllng, slippery and not twice in the

towards Greeley is happily expressed in
his calendar, framed by a contemporary
January-The cid idiot Greeley.
February-The eccentric Greeley.
March-Old Horace Greeley.
April--Horace Greeley.
May--Mr. Horace Greeley. Ea
