For the Democr

MR.. EpIToR-I exhibited at the Eaton Fair. the
Esfey Organ-I had no competition except the Or
gan represented by Mr.. Mckee. Our instruments
were well and frequently tested by very many
persons who understand such Instruments, and
the opinion was universally in favor of the Estey
Organ, both for volume and melody Now, Mr..
Editor, when the Committee was appointed TO de-
term'ne the premiums, 1t consisted of one gentle
nan and two ladies. The gentleman is a wagon
maker, and may understand vocal music, but
knows nothing about an Organ or M Lsical instru-
meuts. The two ladies' were properjudges but one
of them VII pr"judiced against ire for the reason
that L sold an Organ to her brother -in-lnw u short
time since, when she wished to sell him an Organ
which she had, and therefore, I donot think under
such circumstances, She was a proper judge. The
other lady was favorable to my Organ, but Of
course the other two ruled aud gave the premium
to the - Organ, which all good judges know to
be inferior to the Estey Organ which is the best
the world ever had. do not think the premium
was rightly or fairly given, and therefore feel
agrieved.

hStiek to Your PARTY"

This is the advice the Eaton REGIS
TER gives to the honest voters of Pre-
BILE county. 1t was the same last fall,
when the Ring had nominated a pee
ulator for reelection, but we are glad
to say the admonition was not needed
and the Ring was rebuked, and we
believe it will be the same this fall.
The Registers cry of Clique oil Ring
in the Independent candidates, is the
sheercst nonsense i'll the world
These gentlemen are running without
any nomination-without any Con-
vention. upon their own personal
merits, and at the solicitation of men
of all parties, who II dissatisfied
with the miserable, incompetent and
unfit candidates foisted upon them by
the Ring and through a Convention
that was illegal and arbitrarily as
sembled. The candidates on the LII
dependent Ticket are before the peo-
pie just as MI. Barnet was last Spring,
against the incompetent nominee OF
the Ring, that refused to allow the
voters to make their selection by the
ballot, and we believe they will en-
dorse them. Have the taxpayers of
Preblc county ever lost anything by
refusing to "stick to their party ?"-
Has the Clerk and Sheriff not given
general satisfaction? Has the present
Prosecutor ever been charged with
brow-beating a Grand jury, bribing
witnesses to abscond or incompetency
to draw a legal bond? Was the funds
of the County ever squandered and
wasted upon paper jails, by Indepen-
or Democratic officials? These
are questions that should be consid-
cred by the taxpayers of this county,
they conclude to "sT1cK TO
THEIR PARITY"

or Clothing, at Jos. Woerner's fashion,

The Prosecutorship.

The assertion of the REGISTER that
Judge Campbell is a failure, is moth
ing but reckless lying, done for the
purpose of forcing q man upon this
county as Prosecutor, who cannot cor
rectly spell the mi of the twelve
| calender months, and who is notori-
ously and stupidity incompetent to
fill the office, as his attempt to do SO
for one term, fully satisfied all who
had business with him. This was
proven in his attempt to draw all Of
fetal bond for Sheriff Bostick on his
second term, which was done SO bung-
ingly that it amounted to no legal
pond, and the Sheriff served out near
ly his second term without anything
further than a personal responsibility,
until the attention OF the Commiss-
toner's was called to the subject and
they ordered the Sheriff to give a
proper and legal bond, covering not
only future but past liabilities, which
was drawn by Mr.. Campbell, the pre-
sent Prosecutor. Is there a man in
the county acquainted with the two
candidates, that will pretend to argue
that MI. Campbell is not a more sue
cessful prosecutor, in all his legal bu-
siness, than Mr.. Freeman? Is there a
man in the county, with the least par
ticle of judgment, that will say that
the cases brought before a petit jury,
would not be more ably argued by
Judge Campbell than if MI. Freeman
had charge ofthem? Both gentlemen
have been tested, and let the Bar and
record speak. If Mr.. Campbell failed
before the petit jury, who believes for
a moment that Mr.. Freeman would
have succeeded? If the petit jury
failed to sustain the bills found by the
Grand Jury, and thus put the county
to expense, it was no fault of Mr..
Campbell, and nobody is fool enough
to believe that the very limited amount
of legal talent of Il man who cannot
draw a correct bond or spell indict-
ment, could have saved the cost to the
county. The "stick to your party"
cry and the lash of the Ring may drive
many to the support of an incompe-
tent candidate, but we have too much
confidence in the intelligence of the
masses to believe that enough of this
can be done to elect either the Ring
nominee for Prosecutor OF Represen-
on Tuesday next.

GRIFF EDISON, a mechanic himself,

full sympathy with them, in a word,
he is a LIVE man. Silver is the rep
resentative of the white neck choke,

exemplar of that class which care
nothing for the struggles of the work

are heavy with the scrip wrung from
honest labor.

A Speech from Silver

A great many persons in Eaton,
who think of voting for Absalom,
would like to have him define his po-
%sition, and requests that he address
them at the Court House on Saturday
night next. Come Abby, and LEI us
hear from YOU, and don't allow the
Ring to choke yon down as they did

failed at West Alexandria and Cam
den, but we don't believe it.

From the past history and votes of
the temperance advocates of this place
of the key Morris style, we think it
will make very little difference wheth-
er MI. Corwin was "boozy" on the
day of Howe's circus or not. Their
pretended temperance is only a cloak
that they wear eleven months in the
year. They all voted for Grant know
ing him to be notorious rum sucker,
drunk half his time, and they will
vote for Corwin with the same knowl-
key says he al satisfy any

come to him! Ofcourse he canl He
