The McArthur enquirer. (M'arthur, Vinton County, Ohio) 1873-1884, 1873-02-19

There is talk of expelling
Congressman Ames and Brooks
for corrupt practices, and excns-
ing all others named in cOnnec-
tion with the scandal. How
can Ames be expelledif he did
not bribe anybody? and they all
swear most solemnly he did not,
The trouble appears TO be that
an expulsion of the guilty ones
would reduce the Republican
majority to a dangerous point
and leave the House without a
leader. Dawes, Garfield, Scho-
field and Kelley at present rep
resent the most important COM
mittees, and cannot very well
be spared. Brooks ought to be
killed, he is not necessary; and
besides that, is a Democrat who
did not forget his early training
with the other party he is a
late convert, but let him be TAX
en- to the place ofexecution and
be hanged by the neck until
he is dead, if that be consider
ed necessary punish the guilty
and strike terror to the evil do
err as for the others, swear
them to do so no more, give
them indefinite leave Of abb
sence and let them 60.

The Constitutional Convention


In to-day's paper will be found
the call Of the Democratic Central
Committee of this county, for q
County Convention to nominate u
candidate to represent Vinton conn
ty in the Constitutional Convention,
The Democrats and Liberals Of the
several townships will meet at their
usual places Of holding elections on
Saturday, March Sth to appoint
delegates to attend the County Con
vention to be held at McArthur, On
Monday, the 10th Ct March.
The Democrats and Liberals will
see to it, that the best men in the
several townships are appointed to
represent them in the County Con
vention.
We are informed that U. S.
CLAYPooLE, o. T. CUNNING, and L.
A. ATWOOD, are spokea of as candi-
dates for Delegate, subject to the
decision of the County}Convention.
Perhaps there are others, but We
are not "posted on the subject"
Among the questions likely to be
of absorbing interest to the Consti-
tutional Convention and to the peo-
pie Of the State, are the questions
of Judicial Reform, or a revision OF
the present Judicial system, u mi
nority representation, and Of the
license system for the regulation of
the sale of intoxicating liquors.
Of these the most important is
the question of Judicial Reform.
Certainly system in which there
will be greater simplicity, less de
lay, less expense to litigants and
the entire community, and system
as relible as our present system is,
is not an impossibility.
A knowledge of our present sys-
TEN, with all its Objectionable parts
would seem to be an important
qualification in the person who rep
resents us.
Not only do we want such a man
for our candidate, but we want an
earnest, acorktng man; a man who
will not only work for his election
when nominated, but one who will
work earnestly for all needful
reforms when elected and in the
Convention.

Increase Of the National Blessing,

At the close of every month
for some time before and dur
ing the Presidential compaign
the monthly public debt state
ment showed a decrease Of the
national obligations Since the
election there being no longer
an excuse for deceiving the
people, the decrease of debt
rapidly fell off until last month,
it ceased all together, and the
debt was increased nearly half
million. What can the people
think of a party that deliber-
ately deceives them in order to
get their votes to be retained in
power.

Losing Strength.

The Republican party has
been loosing strength, coheren-
cy and respect every day since
it's decisive triumph; instead Of
being made greater by its yicto-
ry, it has been made weaker;
and the public feeling that it
was a fortunate thing that
HORACE GREELEY was not elect
ed is already beginning to give
place to . public conviction
that it would have been a fortu-
nate thing if the Republican
party could have been beaten

THERE is a great deal of point

The North fleet Disas-
ter.
LONDON, Feb. T. The details
of the terrible disaster to the
ship NOHkfeet are published,
from which it appears that at
half. past tenat night the cap
tain and others were alarmed
by a cry from the officer of the
watch. A steamer ran into us.
The captain and pilot rushed
ON deck, but before they got
there the steamer had run into
the vessel, striking amidships,
and cutting her below the water
mark. The carpenter reported
her half full of water. The
pumps were started promptly
and the crew worked hard at
them for some minutes, but
when it was found that the
water was rapidly gaining a
panic seemed to seize, both the
crew and passengers, and the
officers could not keep the latter
in check. A crowd of men and
women rushed up from their
berths., Many only had half of
their clothing on. The passen-
gers had mostly.retired, but q
few we're undressing. The
noise Of the collision likenedby
one of them to a peal of thunder
and such was the violence of
the shock that that those stand
ING were knocked down. 1t
appears that steamer rebound
ed and came the second time in
collision with the North,2eet.
The water began to pour in,
and in a very short time the
passengers quarters were
swamped. The women were
slower to rush on deck than the
men, and many were not in the
condition to till the water rose
threateningly around them.
No one on the steamer was
heard to speak, although the
loud and eager shouts from the
North fleet must have made her
crew aware of the terrible dan
ger that existed. Sh equacked
for two or three minutes, and
then steaming rapidly away
was soon out of sight. For
half an hour the scene on deck
on the North fleet was appalling.
The women shrieked, the men
cursed and swore and fought
their way towards the boats,
whilst the captain and first
mate roared out commands to
the men to keep back and allow
the women to get to the side
of vessel, but apparently with
out success. Rockets were
fred and blue lights burned.
A gun was loaded, but the
screw of the ramrod became de-
tached from the handle, and
the piece could not be dischar-
ed signals of distress were
seen by several vessels, but ap-
pear to have been regarded as
signals for a pilot, for no assist
ance was rendered. Mean
while, the scene on deck battles
description. The captain find
ing the men determined to leave
the vessel, nent below and arm
ed himself with a revolver, and
ascending the poop, declared
his determination to shoot the
first man who tried to leave the
v9ssel before the women were
safe. The first boat launched
was lowered by a number of
passengers by cutting the ropes.
There being no ladder at hand,
the only way Of getting into it
was by leaping and falling some
twelve or thirteen feet. AS
there was a terrible rush to-
ward the bort, the scene was
,ne of distressing confusion,
