REMOVING STUMPs WITH DYNAMITE.-
Dynamite has been applied to this troub'
lesomc business in England With success.
Not long since number Of experiments
were made in the presence of II commit
tee Of farmers. Several stumps which
had been dug up were split into stove
wood with n few ounces of dynamite.
The experiments were concluded by
blowing bodily out of the ground large
intact oak root this was done by max
ing crowbar-hole between the ties or
main roots, and inserting n charge OF dy'
Mantle under the centre. On the shot
being fired, the root lifted completely
from its bed.

dren for the human market2 The Egyp-
tians never bought or sold Hebrew slaves.
Yet the Almighty came down, and in the
name Of JEHOVAH, a name never as
sumed before, showed His adherence Of
human bondage by a series Of miracles
the most wonderful recorded in the
whole Bible. And He chose for His
special instrument Moses, a man whose
first act after arriving at manhood was
the killing of a STAKEHOLDER, and the
burying of him in the sand.
But the Herald says:
There were neither Democrats nor
Republicans in the days of our Savior.

to one Democrat, at least 1t was Peter
True, like Morton, and Logan, and 9th
ers, he got his eyes opened, and became
converted-became Republican. Wher
he was a Democrat, he acted much like
the Democrats of the present day, h'
lied, and cursed and swore. His conver
sion from Democracy to Republicanisn
took the force and power of a miracle
1t is recorded in the tenth chapter o
Acts. Read it. Peter, when he got hi
eyes open to the delusion of Democracy
and the justice and beauty of Republi
canism, broke out as follows (verse BAY
Then Peter opened his mouth, ant
said, OF a truth perceive that God is n

That is the corner stone of Republ
canism.

TO ID NJ ackley

Now we never placed any of these
cards in the hands Of c. r. Whitman,
and never authorized any other person
to do SO. How did he (or she) get that
card? If he had been found in posses
sion of our property the amount of thir-
ty.fve dollars, instead of one cent, there
might have been another Democratic
Penitentiary case to report.
From the amount of education, COM
mon sense, and common decency, mani
tested in the above composition, we
would naturally suppose the writer would
prefer the herald to the standard.
And again. We would rather be big
fool and have sense enough to know it,
than a very small fool lacking that
amount of sense.

the paper as editor; it was in the edito-
rial column, loaded; if he did not write
it, he stole it, and adopted it.
Will Mr.. Vance also tell the people of
Jackson what he thinks about the tariff ?
The State platform of his party, adopt
ed this summer, says:
8. That we are in favor of a tariff for
revenue only.
And the St. Louis platform says:
We demand that all Custom House
taxation shall be only for revenue.
Is Vance going to squeal on his party,
and il he is SO disposed, what will ii
amount to, among the Democratic Briga,
diers?
One thing more. Will Mr. Vance ex
explain why he ran around in the House
trying to get his Democratic brethren tc
vote to carry out his contract for the
public printing? OF course he was not
bribed to do this. Col. Boynton says il
is charitable to suppose he did it with
out pay. We make no such insinuation
but then it really looked SO very strange
that he should, for his own good name
give an explanation.

SOMETHING ABOUT A REFoRMER
The last number of the Gallipolis Bull
letin contained the following:

The last number of the Gallipolis Bull
letin contained the following
"'vance, the 'reformer,' the apologist for thief
Tweed, and the defender of the Credit Mobilier,
came to this place early on Monday morning.
He had a cold reception. We saw no one ex-
cept Levi DUNCAN and w. T. washam speak to
him, or show him countenance. He chawed
up two or three cigars and then lit out. Demo-
Gratis in Jackson take no stock In Tweed and
the Credit tMobiIier.'-[Jackson Standard of Au-
gust 81.
"The editor of the Jackson (O.) Standard can
deliberately frame and print as big falsehood
as any man we know of in connection with the
Ohio press. He Is unquestionably the cham
pion In that line."-lCincinnati Gazette.
We are sorry to say it is our candid
opinion that the Gazette tells the truth,
as Mackley knows, if he knows anything
that Vance has nothing to do with the
publication Of the Bulletin. Our reasons
are satisfactory and valid" and if want
ed we can give them. although it would
be pretty hard to find language low
enough to convey them.
Now let us see whether we know "tha
Vance has nothing to do with the pull
cation Of the Bulletin" The same cop,
of the Bulletin in which we find tn
above, had the following, at the head O
the editorial columns on both the insid
pages:
The Jackson standard. [volume] (Jackson C.H., Ohio) 1847-1888, 1876-09-14

Goss and Allen, and a crowd of roughs
and bullies, went to Kentucky last
Thursday to engage in prize fight. AT
ter fighting fourteen rounds, the militia
broke it up. They went to another place
and completed it, at the twentieth round.
Goss was terribly beaten in the face, and
his eyes nearly closed, when Eph. Hol-
land, the referee, declared that Allen had
struck Goss after he was down, Gnd the
decision was given in favor Of Soss. al
though Allen was scarcely marked.
Allen was arrested and is in Jail at Gov.
ington. The balance of the crowd es-
eaped to this State.

Wade Hampton, one Of the last recon
structed rebels of South Carolina has
been nominated by the Democrats oi
that State for Governor. Gen. N. G.
Butler, the author of the Hamburg mas
sacre, has been nominated for Congress
in the same State. These nominations
show the drift of Democratic sentiment
in the South.
We find the above in one Of our ex.
changes. We must say that we think
more of the rebel who had the honesty
and courage to fight, than we do of the
sneaking copperhead who did all he
could to aid the rebellion. and now will
pretend that he was a Union man.

Business distress still prevails all over
the country, and actual starvation is star
ing thousands and hundreds Of thousands
of people in the face. 1t is the result of
a vicious financial policy, that has favored
the few against the many, and rascally
thieving horde of scoundrels, that have
been up to their arm-pits in all manner
of dirty jobs while frightening the people
by following rebels" from morning till
night. Their day is about past and when
past we will prosper with improved
times [Gallipolis Bulletin.
Is the above true, if so, why waste the
means to prevent starvation, as told in
the following from the Waverly Repub-
lican:
Emmitt's distillerv crushes 400 bushels
of corn daily, running off about three
gallons to the bushel.
That means the destruction of one
hundred and twenty thousand bushels OF
corn in one year, at only one distillery,
and the production Of three hundred and
sixty thousand gallons Of whisky, at this
one distillery.
The following, from the Portsmouth
Blade, is further proof of the real cause
of the hard condition of the poor:
The total amount of revenue collected
| for this district, in the month of August
is $69.694 so. OF this amount sos, ,775 "a
was collected on spirits, 1886 81 on to-
bacco; 81 ,279 "a on fermented liquors
$50 l6 on penalties, etc.
1t is not necessary to comment on the
above figures. There is nearly a million
dollars per year in this poor, iron district
paid as taxes, not mentioning the cost OF
the articles themselves, on tobacco, beer
and whisky. That is about s27 for every
voter in the district.

The Republicans and their stumpers
talk about the war to men who are beg
ging for work to buy bread. They want
to know what is the trouble now
Democratic paper.
The trouble now is that the country
since the Democratic rebellion was end.
ed, has paid over six hundred millions
Of debt heaped upon the industries oi
the country by the Democratic party in
their war upon the Government, to per.
petuate human bondage, and there is yet
more than two thousand million dollars
OF the same Democratic debt to be paid
That's what's the trouble now, and will
be the trouble for many years to come.

We have before US a copy of the West
ern Times, published in Portsmouth, by
j. A. Bingham, and bearing date of Oc-
tober 2lst 1880 Ii is a five column, four
page sheet. 1t contains nearly one col
umn OF editorial matter, and the remain
der is filled with foreign and miscellane-
Gus news Of which il has FIVE columns,
and with advertisements. There is not
single item Of local news in the paper
except the following short notice Of a
death:
DIED-On Tuesday morning last, at the
residence Of this paper, Miss Mary John
son, aged II.
1t was well patronized in the way OF
advertisements, having about eight and
one-half columns occupied by them.
We gather from one of its editorial.
that it was Republican in principle 1t
exubeTates considerably over the elec
/ tion OF Republican State Senator from
this Senatorial District, and chronicles
an appalling defeat of the Jacksonian,
in Maryland by which defeat the Repub
licans made a whooping gain OF forty
eight Representatives.
1t was a temperance sheet, but doe
not seem to have been possessed Of yerl
clear understanding OF the code Of NOR
ais as now practiced; for in its notice o
terms of advertising, it has the following
paragraph:
nG-Nen ders OF Lottery tickets Patent Med
cines &c, entitled To a reduction OF - per cent
from the above tregular) prices.
We, in our more advanced state Of Gu
ture, would charge at least full price 70

The editor of the Jackson Standard,
one of the bitterest of Radicals, gives the
Germans to understand that he wouldn't
care if every German paper in the coun-
try was opposing Hayes. Mackley be-
lieves that it is a disgrace on the Repub-
lican party for a German to belong to il,
and so do all the fanatics of that party so
believe, the only difference is, they are
not so outspoken as Mackley is about the
NATTER Waverly Watchman.
Hon. Guido Marx, of Toledo. was called
out to speak at Republican caucus in
Naughton Hall. Columbus, in March,
1875. We heard him respond. He said
he was sorry he had been called. He
knew it was done because he was q Ger
man. When he came to this country he
came to be an American citizen, and he
was sorry to see an attempt made TO
keep up national distinctions. That is
the point we make. If men want to be
Germans, or Welsh, or Irish, let them
remain in Germany, Wales or Ireland (;
but if they desire to become American
citizens, no one will more heartily well
come them than will the editor of the
Standard. We have long been in favor
of permitting foreign born residents to
vote. Why should man from Germany
have to remain in this State five years
before he can vote. while man from
Virginia, Kentucky or New York, even
if he be a "nigger," can vote after one
years residence
We are utterly disgusted with this
eternal attempt to pander to the preju
dices of foreigners for their votes. If q
German, or Irish, or Welsh paper, or
German, Irish or Welsh citizen, desires
to support Tilden, we have no objection
Has the Watchman2 If so, why2
The Columbus Journal thus answers
one of the persistent attempts Of the
Democrats to capture and claim the
German vote"
We are afraid it will have to be admit
ted that Col. Barnes, our candidate for
Secretary of State is not a drunkard. II
is doubtful if the keenest nosed CRUSADER
could smell either whisky or beer on hi
breath IL our German citizens mus
have a sot for Secretary of State, they
will have to scratch the Republican
ticket. This is not exactly the way the
Democratic newspapers put it, but tina
is exactly what it amounts to. WheT
you get it into plain English, it does no
seem that the Democratic newspapers arr
paying a very high compliment to th'
good sense of our German friends.
