again-, Gov. Taylor They have inyen-
ted. bought, aud procured the publi-
cation Of personal abuse, that every one
ofthen knew to be false and utterly I'M
founded. They have published state
ments by inuendo known to be untrue.
Thinking the truth could not overtake
their ISLANDERS, they have continued
from day to day to invent new ones.
1t is just and right. for men to seek
the success of their political party, but
the dishonorable and disreputable tactics
of the Journal ring" cannot be sus-
tanned or approved by any honorable
man, and can only be explained By the
following facts, gathered from the re-
cords in the Office of the Secretary of
State-the same records that the secre-
tary of the republican state central COM
mittec was lately so anxious to get
in bis possession. The reason will be
apparent. In the first place, it is
known that D. Atwood & Co. have
been for years the state printers. 1t has
been published, and not denied, that
during the last three years of their con-
tract they received from the State as
follows:

Slander and Personal
Abuse.
Why the Journal Resorts to
it.
Gigantic System Of Robbery Exposed.
The Printing Corruption,

The course of the publishers of the
State Journal, Cd. Atwood & Co. }
during the present political contest, this
fall, shows a disposition on their part to
resort to the most despicable means to
deceive the people. They have aband-
oned all prentensions to fairness and de-
cency. and resorted to course of SLAM
der and positive lies, that never had its
equal in the politics of this State
The course Of these men has led to a
slight investigation of the moving cause
with them, and We think the following
will satisfy any candid mind 'why 1t
Is"
1t is difficult to believe, that an ordinary
desire for political success, could induce
men to resort to the base, cowardly, and
disreputable tactics that SO far has dis
tinsuished their course. Ever since the
canvas commenced, they have published
the most outrageous lies and SANDERS,

phere he hds been. Stree. and ,chsre he
nor as, amaiting a Republican rictory
to ogain resume his position of audit
ing d. Atrood e Co.'S accounts. 1t
is no wonder the profits we're large, and
not strange d. Atwood & Co. seek re-
turn to the Lowest bidder dodge.
Nor is this all.
From an examination of the bills of
Atwood & CO.. audited by this clerk.
it appears that they habitually received
pay for quality and kind of material
and work they did not furnish the state.
The difference in the quality of paper
printed, and that required to be fur
nished By their contract, and which the
state paid for, amounting to many
thousand dollars annually. 1t is not
strange that they were the s.lowest
bidders with all these inside faeih-
ties.
This system of fraud and deception
seems to extend to almost every job done
by D. Atwood q Co., that has been ex-
amined, and we have not been able to
find a job, honestly done, according to
the bills presented and audited by their
clerk. Of course they could pay thous-
ands to buy off other bidders.
During all this time D. Atwood &
Co. have had absolute control OF the
legislature, assisted by the Regency !;
hence they could procure the passage of
any law they desired for their benift,
and their demands were only limited by
their idea Of what the people would
stand, and the fear Of exposure. In
one instance law was changed for
their bsne1f; gtler they had the con-
tract by being the Lowest bidder"
which change put in their pockets a
number of thousand dollars annually and
robbed the people just chat amount.
Of course these men want Taylor de-
fe,ted and Of course they will resort to
all dishonorable means to accomplish it.
They want man lin the ring" who
will assist them to rob the people, at
least to the extent ofapproving their bills
lsmuggled through the Legislature.
Governor Taylor stands between the
people and this barnacle firm
! They know that with his election a
return to those printing steals is impos-
sibIe
| They desire Republican victory, fol
they know it means that they will be
again up to their elbows in the public
/ treasury.
: They know that Republican victory
mea rs reveal of the present printing
laws.
1t means A,vood & Co. as public
printers.
1t means the same old printing clerk
to audit accounts under laws drafted b,
David Atwood, and yearly profits of
FORTY THOUSAND DOLLARS.
Here, then, is the real cause of the
gross and outrageous attacks on Cover
or Taylor by this crowd" They
can afford to expend thousands to defeat
him, for they know it will return to
them If they succeed, an hundred fold
1t is well that the PEOPLE should
