The editor Of the Union sets himself up
is a champion Of reform, ard howls
against public eXtravagances away at
Washington, but never has a word to
say against eXorbitant eXpen nditures OF
a local character. He purchased the
Union office with the avowed eXpecta-
ton Of "making money" in editing the
county printing, but because the editor
of this paper felt that justice as well as
consistency and the public good de-
manded the abandonment Of war prices
for county printing; in other words,
because we could not be induced to dis
regard principles and honesty and join
with him in efforts to rob the taxpay crs
of this county, he1ias been mad as a
hornet" at us.ever since, which, accounts
for his ccaseless abuse Of us through his
columns.
Our readers well know that this per-
sonal controversy was none Of our seek
ing. For months have we remained si-
lent, while this eX-minister of the Cos
pei, who is said to have boasted that
from the pulpit '''he gave his congrega-
ton hell from the word CO." and on one
occasion, after reading his text, an
nounced to his hearers that she was 60
ing to un-cap hell" continued TO throw
dirt at us.
edo not purpose working for moth
ing, either for the county or private in
dividuals, but expect fair compensation
for our services, and we have no fault to
! find with him for making and getting
all he can, as it is none Of our business
| but it seems to us that it requires no Or
dinary amount Of brass for man who
is notorious for his exorbitant demands
for public printing. as the protests OF
Commissioner McClain shows on the
record, and as other gentlemen will
bear witness, to assume..th air of a pub
lie reformer. He is. however. very
fair sample of the pretended reformers
who now lead the Democratic party.

ED. REPUBLICAN In Brunner's
Pictorial Union of last week appears
a master. piece in the line of comic
display. We well knew that by a
little advice the editor of the Union
could be induced to retrace his steps
and again seek the paths of the high
toned gentleman and moralist, in
which. in earlier years he taught us
to walk. a,
Bro. B. is not of that school CT
humanity which is outside the in
fluence of reason. He has a CHART
able, generous and forgiving spirit,
and will walk in the ways of right
when he sees the. way. Therefore
we were prepared to some extent for
the appearance of the wonderful dis
play in his last issue.

The notorious turn coat who pre-
sides over the columns of the Union
makes frequent references to 'Organ
Grinders" and in terms not intend
Ell to convey ahigh degreeof respect,
but we will state that we have never
known an "Organ Grinder of any
nationality, who was SO destitute OF
emo bling traits Of character as the
spurious reformer who charged the
county $3.50 for printing that cost
him S42, and which money he pock-
eted in the face of Commissioner
McClain's, protest as can be seen by
refercnceto the journal at the Aud
itor's office.
"Organ Grinders give an equiv
alent for what they get. At least
only take what those whom they try
to entertain see proper to give them

The Reason Wily-A Letter from
Senator Sherman.
The following letter has been received
by one OF our citizens, which we are
permitted to make public.:
MANSFIELD, o., Aug. l3 -.
DEAR SIR: Your letter, stating
that Mr.. Grisell, in a public speech,
charged me with causing his remov-
al, is received. / can only say that
Mr.. Grisell was appointed on my
recommendation, upon the strength
of papers, filed by him. with his ap-
plication for office. l had no mo-
tive. desire. oragency. in his remov-
al, except as here statel. My atten-
tion was officially called to irregular
tiles in his office and was requested
to name some suitable person as his
successor. / delayed for months,
when i was advised, that, owing to
report of special agent, and upon
specific allegations OF misconduct,
by his subordinates, his removal
could no longer be postponed. Then,
and only then, and with extreme re
gret, l recommended successor.-
l have no desire to state the causes
for his removal, for had then. and
have now no feeling of unkindness
for him, and it is but fair to say that
the misconduct charged was in hi:
subordinates, and his fault was :
neglect, personally, to attend to his
official duties.
Very truly yours,
JOHN SHERMAN.
