They have a good time along the Ohio
River on Sundays, not being vexed by
sumptuary laws. The last number of the
Pomeroy Telegraph gives two cases, which
occurred on last Sunday week The
steamer Scioto came up from Portsmouth
and Ironton with over one hundred per
sons, mostly Germns, and remained three
hours One of them who was drunk got
into fuss on the wharf boat, and was
knocked down and severely kicked.
On the same Sunday crowd of Ger.
mans went in boat from Pomeroy sev.
en- miles up the Kanawha, and took fif
teen kegs of beer with them. There they
met crowds from Gallipolis, Point Pleas.
ant and other places. After the beer
was drunk there was a general drunken
row. One man was put off the boat. lie
then stoned the boat, when a man on the
boat shot him. He was seen fall, when
the boat steamed home.

The Gallipolis Journal is misled by the
Cincinnati Gazette, which is the cham
pion liar, ever since the 22d Of May last,
when it solemnly asserted that its little
god Bristow, openly voted for Abraham
Lincoln in 1860. As we said, the Jour
nal is misled by the champion liar, and
says George NJ. Brown was nominated
for Commissioner in jackson county
and n. T.. Hooker for Coroner. Now
who is Hooker We have resided in the
county 55 years, and we never have
known a man Of that name in the county.

We found the following in the GallipO-

We found the following in the Gallipo-
lis Bulletin short time ago:
Coal is selling here at four and n half cents
and there's folks in town that can't buy half
bushel What do you think of that? you pot
wolopers Of the Republican party, that say
there's just as much money as there ever was.
When we saw that, we wondered if
these poor fellows could not always find
money enough to supply themselves with
tobacco, beer and whisky, when in con-
firmation of this opinion, we came across
the following, in the same paper
There appears to be a spirit of lawlcssness pre-
vailing about town, more particularly notcea-
bic and complained of, In the first Ward. Bull
lies are reported as going about drunk, armed
with deadly weapons, shooting promiscuOusly
and raising AZ sorts of disturbances at night
and on the ~ lbath, without fear Of molesta-
tion from the Marshal or police who seem to
have abandoned the city and turned IL over TO
them. Reform is demanded and officers would
do well to take heed. The Marshal claims he
is unable TO perform all the police duty as there
are no paid police.
The Marshal does perfectly right.
What business has he to vex the Democ-
racy with sumptuary laws, in violation OF
the Democratic platform

COMMISSIONER sMART's DENIAL

Not long ago the Republic re-published from
the columns of the Sandusky Register an ar1cle
sioner Chas. S. Smart, at the same time calling
that gentleman's attention to the statements
and Offering the use of these columns for any
We received the following last evening:
"AMERICAN HOTEL,
COLUMBUS, o., July 80, 1870.
"EtlitOr Springfield republic Dear SIR:
"The statements made by the Sandusky reg
ister in its issue of the 2lst INST, and which you
unbecoming public officer ana gentleman y
are utterly false.
aCHAs' $. SMART"
We find the above in the Springfield
Republic. 1t is strange what disposi-
ton there is among men, to believe every
scandalous report about their fellow
men. Mr.. Smart resided here some
years, and had charge of our union
schools, and we supposed all our people
were his friends, and would demand
proof before condemning him; yet we
find even among Democrats, that most oi
the citizens here believe the reports to
be true. They say they never had any
confidence in him, and that they always
knew that he was a ID fool, etc.
We never subscribed to the monstrous
principle that when a man is accused, he
should prove his innocence. Mr.. Smart
makes a denial. We admit it is a quail
fed denial We wish he could have
made a square and full denial. He may
think that it is not conduct unbecoming
an officer and gentleman, for a married
man to run after other women But now
let US have the proofs, on the part of the
Sandusky Register. Mr.. Smart owes II
to himself. to his family, and to the peo
pie Of the great State Of Ohio, to demand
an investigation.

Something About Ohio Officials

COLUMBUS, July 26-During the po-
litical reaction which prevailed two years
ago Ohio elected a Democratic Secretary
of State, School Commissioner, and other
officers The choice does not seem. to
have been fortunate. The annual report
of the Democratic Secretary, lately pub
lished, is found to be full of statistical
blunders, rendering it almost useless.
Heretofore the document has been a
model Of accuracy, and has been generally
valued for its statistical information.
The Democratic School Commissioner is
also in trouble. Specific charges against
him Of a scandalous nature were pub
lished several days ago, and have not yet
been denied, though frequently repeated.
Similar charges some months ago forced
the resignation of a Democratic Superin-
tendent at the Soldiers Orphans Home

Last week we found the following in
the Gallipolis Bulletin. edited by j. L.
Vance, Democratic candidate for Con-
gress in this District:
Our article on Tilden and Reform is necessa-
rily quite lengthy, but we appeal to every
reader of the Bulletin to wade through IL care
the truth that what we preach by day and by
night of Tilden and Reform, Is for the good OF
the country, and that his character as an able
and upright man Is beyond all question.
Now let us see about this reformer,
whose ability and uprightness are beyond
all question. The Ironton Democrat is
Democratic paper, published in this
District. 1t says:
Five enormous pufs of Tilden are enclosed TO
them as quoted, reading matter, for the moder-
ate price of S4-which means one dollar for
Nasby & Co. and the balance for ms. We are
surprised that Mr.. Locke has become so de-
graded as TO be made the tool of Wall street
and the Ne W York successor of Tweed.
Tilden seeks To buy his way to the Presiden-
tiai cheir with money stolen from the masses
of the people, and in the advocacy of doctrines
which enrich the few and impoverish the
many, he hopes TO be elected. lie is a fraud on
the people and his so-called reform measure Is
/ a sham.
Both of these able and consistent pa.
pers support Vance, Tilden and reform

A man named j N Richie became
crazy with beer and whisky in Cincin.
natl last week. and attempted to shoot
everybody he saw, and succeeded in
shooting one young man through the
brain, and another in the neck. He was
not "vexed with sumptuary laws" but an
indignant crowd came near vexing him
with rope, but the officers, as usual,
were more successful in saving the life
of the crazy murderer than they were in
saving the life of his innocent victim.

IAmos J. Purdy's speech to the St. Louis CON-
Tilden and Tweed.

The great capitalists claim a strength
for Mr.. Tilden by the assertion that he
is an honest man Let us examine his
record and see if it is such. William NJ.
Tweed was probably the greatest thief
that this country ever saw. But the
larceny was not the work of an hour, or
a day, or n month, or a year. During all
the time that he was carrying on his
plundering in 50 open a manner that the
world knew it, Mr.. Tilden was actively
associated with him, was the chairman
Of all the conventions that were control
led by Tweed, was living in the same
city, and belonged to the same political
organization. When Tweed was exposed
by that eminent reformer, Jimmy o Bri-
en-, when he was at the bar OF justice

down, then and not till then did Mr.

/ Iilden did not know or suspect the rob

were going on, ] say he was not a man OF
any sagacity. lie was in a position to
