MYTHICAL

Con: yress seems to have nothing else
to do bs1t pass bills for inquiring into
alleged frauds and nalfeasance in Office.
Il 10 adm tilted on all sides that these in
auiries are useless, and that nothing
can come of them, but stiI new vision
ary allegations are almost daily
trunped up, and committees Of inves-
tigation ordered, for the purpose Of
casting upon the Republican party the
stiems Of dishonesty and corruption.
No tan Ii the full possession of his five
senses believes an iota Of these charges
Of wholesale corruption. It is one
thing to makes brosd and sweeping
Insertion; It Is quite > different affair to
prove it. We do not object to these
investigations on the ground that they
win iajure the Republican party; on the
contrary, the result OF The inquiries 50
vigorously being carried forward will
but edd 10 shs confidence already felt
by tAs people in the ability and honesty
OF To present administration. Our
objection are to the useless waste
Of ..ssns and the unnecessary. expense
oo<lsioned BY the appointing Of speciaI

little 'Esusplcion" that may be enter

To the Voters
OF THE
29th JUDICIAL CIRCUIT

Having been nominated by the
Republican Convention held on
the 2Sth of March, 1872, at Ore
gon, Holt county, as a candidate
for Judge of the Twenty-ninth Ju-
dicial Circuit of the State of Mis-
souri,, would gladly visit you in
your various townships and coun-
ties, and see how near your views
Of the duties and qualifications of
a man you would place on the
Bench would tally with my own.
But the time is too short to graf
ify me in this particular. The
election will take place on Tues
day, the 10th day of April. Duty
to my clients, who have cases in
court now in session at Savannah,
will keep ME here until within a
day or two of the election. De-
prived as l am Of the pleasure of
visiting the various parts of the
Circuit, ! send out this brief cir
cular to assure all Republicans
and all others who may be dis
posed to give me their suffrages,
that should l be chosen to serve
you as Judge of this Circuit, you
can rely upon honesty of pur-
pose and earnestness Of effort to
discharge the duties of the posi-
ton. Whatever knowledge of
law l may have, AID whatever
sense of justice and right / may
possess, shall be employed for the
benefit and protection of my fel-
low-citizens. The Office is not po-
litical in its character, although
it is elective by the people. Its
duties should not be discharged
from a partisan standpoint. The
Judge must be impartial, and
treat all alike. All are equal be-
fore the law. He must know no
man or party in the execution of
the law. The courts should be
administered speedily and eco
nomicaily, with rs little cost to
the people and parties litigant us
possible. Having had eighteen
years experience in the law. ut
the bar and on the bench, l flat
ter myself that l am competent to
dischargethe duties of the oficeto
the entire satisfaction of all the
people.
The reputation of candidatcs for
public favor is often assailed on
the eyeof elections, but remember
that their merits are fully can
vassed by the people who know
them before they are put in NOM
isptias- are plrti # fl an Tfgu slsnderoas
corning my character. I can only
trust to the candor and fairness
of every voter to do as he would
be done by in like circumstances.
Though there are but two Off
GERS to be elected. yet they r of
the utmost importanccto the pco-
pie. therefore urge the voters to
turn out and vote, so that the re-
suit will be, in fact, the verdict of
the honest masses.
Unanimously nominated by the
Convention. and heartily Endorsed
in all parts of the circuit, l leave
my case in your hands, confident
that when the sun shall have set
on the 10th Of April, your sui
frages will be given, not as parti-
sans, merely, but as Intelligent
men, and with this expectation l
cheerfully abide the result.

Municipal Election il Albany, Gen

try County-Republican Gain.
The election for corporation officers
held on Tuesday i'll Albany, hitherto
claimed by the Democrats to be their
main stronghold III that county, clearly
shows that Democracy decreases as the
country becomes enlightened. At the
election held in April of last year for
the same purpose, the Democrats carried
the day by a majority of abcut twenty
five votes, while this year we reduced
their majority to five votes. In this
connection we call attention to the fact
that the law makes it the duty of the
board of trustees TO call upon the county
clel k before the election for n certified
list of the qualified voters Of the town,
for the use of the judges of the election.
This our Democratic board did not do;
but allowed the matter to go by default.
The judges OF tho election then refused
to allow . number of our Republican
voters, who had been citizens of our
town, and some of them for more than
q year, the privilege of voting, know
ing as they did that il our full strength
were polled, we would beat them fairly
at the election. AS it stands we have
achieved a signal triumph.-[Gcntry Co.

sss the policy proposed by Maj. Kouns OF
the Fulton Fair Play-declaring that
the men did the fighting for the
rebel cause find no bonds of
union, politically, between til e M
selves and the stay-at-home Demo-
Gratis, and that the true intcrerests Of the
ex-confedcrates lead them to unite with
the Republican party, as that party is the
only one which can give peace and pros.

The fact can no longer be denied that
