The Andrew County Republican. [volume] (Savannah, Mo.) 1871-1876, 1872-06-28

| Congress and their places under the
last Democratic President to plunge
| the country into the Red Sea of Seccs-
| sion and Rebellion. Though you
paint an inch thick, to this complexion
you must come at last. The brain,
the heart, the soul, of tho present
Democratic party is the rebel element
at the South with its Northern allies
and sympathixers. It's rebel at the
| core to-day. 1t would hall the cleo
| ton of a Democratic President In 1872
| as q virtual reversal of the AppOmat-
tox surrender. 1t would come into
power with the hate, the chagrin, the
| modification of ten bitter years, to
impel and guide its steps. 1t would
hail the tidings Of bankruptcy with
unallOyed gladness and u~ncOncealed
exultati0n. Whatever chastisement
we must hope that this disgrace and
humiliation will be spared u.s."
On the 9Th Of January, 1871, when
making some remarks OH taking his
seat as chairman Of Republican COM
mittcc, MI. Greeley said:
"As to the Administration of Gen.
Grant, l recognize no one as q Re-
publican who is not grateful for it's
j%udicious, energetic, and successful
efforts to procure the ratification of
the Fifteenth Amendment, that key
stone of our political arch, whereby
the fruits of our great triumph owe
rebellion and slavery are assured and
perpetuated. While asserting the
right of every Republican to his un-
trammelcd choice of candidate for
next President until nomination Is
made, l venture to suggest that Gen.
Grant will be far better qualified for
that momcntOus trust in 1872 than lie
was in 1861
Here MIR. Greeley, now so strenuous
for the u term principle, nominated
General Grant for . second term.
The views he expresses concerning
the President and his administration
are just and true, and arc and will be
Endorsed by the great body Ofthc PEG.
pie. The blind aud vindictivc denun-
Citations in which Greeley has since in
duiged can nevcr Obliterate the record
he has himself written Of General
Grants eminent ability and perfect
integrity. Is it not plain to every one
that the President has attractions too
great to be overcome even by HOrace's
accredited lifelong devotion to prin-
ciple?

INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPERS.

Our contemporary defends his policy
of refusing to support a candidate I'M
less he is paid for it. And still he
claims to DC Il .rcformcr." Now, If a
candidate for Governor is obliged to
subsidizc newspapers in order to i'll
| sure his nomination and election, this
expense alone Ito say nothing OF
travelling expenses. postage. &c.,)
would amount to thousands Of dol
lars. How is this amount to be made
up to the Governor? His salary is
just twenty-five hundred dollars
Will this pay him back? Or, will it
not become a necessity to levy black
mail on his appointces, in order to
meet the expenses which he was com
PEELED to make during the campaign
by newspapers who had to he bought
up TO support him? There il no other
chance for him to get even that We
can see. Does the Era believe in its
''heart Of hearts" that this would be
the proper plan to pursue? 4 news
papers influence is not q thing which
should be bought and sold. Many
readers consult their newspapers to
know of public men, as that is their
only mean of acquiring knowledge
Of them, and the newspaper should DE
honest and cautious in recommending
or advocating any mans claim to of
flee. After careful inquiry and in
vestigatiOn, the interests of the peo-
pie may be ascertaincd to be best SUBJ
served in the election of a certain can
didate, and this candidate should be
advocated ina proper manner, but
not through the intervention of mOn-
ey. Has it come to this-that the
editorial columns of a newspaper
do but represent the interests
of the mOnicd candidates? When
the people get to understand
that the Era is always paid for the
recommendation or advocacy of GER
tain candidates, then its influence will
be just what it should bc--nothing
at all. Money is a very convenient
commodity-mOre so than principles :
yet so long as il is our fortune Tor mis-
fOrtune!) to publish a paper which the
good people of the county are expect
ell to %patroniZc and encourage, we
hope never to reach the point-which
our contemporary has rcacLcd-whcrc
the public good shall be neglected and
subvcrted by our own selfish greed of
gain. The ETa's assertion that we
are owned, "body, soul and boots,'
by Radicals, or any other man or class
of men, is a falscllood fit only to be
uttered by a newspaper which openly
and unblushin.ly declares that its ed
itOrial columns represent what money
has paid it to represent. 1t will not
be our practice to dog the steps of
candidates, and if We fail to get a hun
dred dollars from this one, take fifty
dollars from that one. Our columns
are as free "a any pretended 'inde-
pendent newspaper in the lahd.-
Our advertising, job work and sub
scription will keep us going, and we
are left free to advocate the claims of
any man for office whom we believe
to be honest, capable, and who will
serve the people faithfully.

Greeley's Record.

Sudden changes of opinion always
excite distrust unless they are accom-
panied by causes SO adequate and ap-
parent that the mctamorphOsis is Mt
once explained. When surrounding
circumstances arc the same, and where
no logical Dr. sufficient reason can be
perceived for a revolution in life long
action aud sentiments there naturally
arises a suspicion Of hidden, merce-
nary, selfish, or dishOnorable motives.
If the conversion. besides being sud-
den and logically incxplicable, was
calculated to subservc ambitious ends
and aspirations, while Il continuance
III the former sentiments would not,
the doubt of honest conviction and
high-minded sincerity in the premises
would almost, or quite, amount to
certainty.
Such is the position which Horace
Greeley now occupies in the minds of
those who have hitherto been his po-
litical CONDUCTORS. lie has deserted
the Republicans; nay more, the Cell
strcs and ObjurgatiOms which for so
many years he bestowed upon their
opponents, he now pOurs out upon
them. he well Knowing that the Dem
ocrats make it tlcir greatest boast
that they + unchanged. Horace
Greeley has not kept his first estate"
politically. What were once his dar-
ling principles, he now deliberately
forswcars. Is there any one so bold
as to declare that .'hOncst" Horace
would hold II position contrary to his
heartfelt conviction? Let us see if
tdcts will not prove that he is actually
in such position. In February, 1871,
Greeley said:
