The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

The Radical hand organs and
stump orators pirate considerable
about the patriotism of their party
and its efforts in the late rebellion.
The only thing that these leading
Radicals were active in from first to
last during the rebellion was to pro-
long the war, speculate on the blood
of the people at large and to make
political capital. Those who really
done the fighting had no interest to
subserve exceptthe protection of the
Union, and you don't hear them
around boasting of their bravery and
patriotism. There was not a spark
of patriotism in these braggarts-
they wanted war and went in for
power and plumber. 1t was not love
of country, not patriotism that ami
mated your Ben Buffers, Camerons,
Chambers, Logans, Mortons, Blains,
and thousands of other false pretsn
ders. 1t was plunder and power.
And God knows they succeeded in
both beyond their most sanguine
expectations. Patriotism requires
self-sacrifice, but the patriotism OF
Radical demagogues consists in steal
ing millions from the people and then
Boosting how they fought and 6led
to save the country!
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

The acquittal of Belknap was not
made a direct party issue, but it is
nevertheless a significant fact that
while only n Democrat voted to
acquit him only twelve Republicans
voted for his conviction. While
twenty-four Republicans voted for
and secured his acquittal, twenty
one Democrats voted to convict and
thereby put their party, as a whole,
on the record in favor of furnishing
thieves regardless of technicalities.
1t was strange that Logan, Conkling
and Hamlin, who have never been
reluctant tofavor violations of the
constitution in behalf of their party,
had such fine scruples about convict
ing a man whose guilt was confess
ed. But then Logan is the protec-
tor of the whisky ring, and Conk-
ling the patron of the custom house
thieves.

Charles NJ. anderson. Esq, Chair
man Of Dem. Cong. Convention.
My DEAR SIN: Your dispatch in
forming me OF my nomination was
received, and + have since read the
proceedings of the Convention; so
hearty an endorsement is exceeding
ly agreeable. If reelected, l shall
endeayor to deserve equal praise in
the future.
l accept the nomination. 1t was
not my intention to continue in pub
lie life, or to make any effort for an
additional term in Congress. Cir
cumstances'have arisen which seem
to demand the sacrifice of personal
considerations, and I have yielded
my individual preferences to what
seems the general request of friends
who have a right to be heard.
/ will soon be among you to dis
cuss the issues of the day. The time
has come, in my Judgment, for that
thorough change in administration,
without which no reform can be
hoped for. 1t has been promised by
our Republican brethren, and they
continue to promise, but the corrupt
element in their party is too large,
too strong, and too well entrenched
in power to be mastered by those
who are honestly disposed.
No financial relief, no economy, nc
reform will be fully accomplished I'M.
til the people peacefully revolution.
ize the government. For the attain
ment of these great ends we should
work in harmony with all true re
formers, and restore the practice o.
honesty in administration.
But this letter is not intended tC
define my position upon the topics
of the day. That will be mor pro
perly done, and will be fully done
when / meet my constituents in thu
canvass.
Thanking the Democracy of tn,
District for their very kind approva
of confidence, / remain with sineer'
regard, yourfriend,

The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

The leading objection made by the
Republicans to the return of the
Democratic par ty to power is that
they fear the Democrats will rein
state the Ex-Rebels of the South,
In the meantime the Republicans
have been SO anxious to make politi-
cal capital in the south that they have
left nothing for the Democrats to do
in that line. President Grant has
just'signed abill restoring Gen. Beau
regard to citizenship. The only ex-
rebel left to restore is jeff Davis, and
Morton offered a bill to restore him
more than a year ago.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

The prominent Republicans, some
years ago, were Greeley, Sumner, Ste
vens, Giddings, Banks, Curtin, Trum-
bull, Farnsworth and Mcclure. All
these among the living are for Til
den and Hendricks, leaving the old
party organization in charge Of such
leaders as Boss Cameron. G Grant, Bah
cock, Shepherd, Kemble, Mackey,
Joyce, Mcdonald and others of the
same stamp in and out of the peniten-
tiary.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

The gallant German soldier and
eloquent orator, Franz Sigel. is out
in a Letter to the New York papers in
which he says.
The principles and policy laid
down in the Democratic platform,
and in the letters of acceptance of
Tilden and Hendricks, Ire in accord
ance with the views which, on many
occasions, l have expressed and de-
Tended, privately and publicly. ]
should be faithless to myself BY not
upholding and defending them now
in the hour of trial, and therefore
shall give my support in this election
to the presidential ticket adopted by
the Democratic convention.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

1t is both encouraging and graft
flying to know that the Democratic
ticket is daily receiving strength
from parties that have never been
looked to for support. Before No
vember next, nearly every prominent
Liberal Republican will be found
working for Tilden and Reform.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

"This is the way Hayes endorses
Grantism:. The national admins
tration merits commentator for it's
honorable work in the management
of foreign and domestic affairs, and
President Grant deserves the graft
tude of the American people," All
who are in favor of this declaration
will vote for Hayes; all opposed will
vote for Tilden. The question in an
other form is twill the people be fools
third time by electing Simon Came
ron's man Hayes"
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

The business men and corpora
tions and laooring men who voted
last fall for "Honest pay for honest
toll" have realized the first fruits of
their vote for Hayes and forced re-
sumption. Let them vote this fall
for a continuation of the Republican
party in power and the present "hard
times are not "a circumstance" to
what will be realized before the close
of this centennial year.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

l am not in favor of the repeal of
the Resumption Act, unless some
thing is substituted that will more
etfectually bring about specie pay
ments as soon as the time prescribed
in that act.-R. B. HAYES.
Ifthe above is not satisfactory ey-
idence to every honest and rejecting
Republican that if HAYES is elected
President, Grantism will be contin-
ued, then there could be nothing pro-
duced that would convince them.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

According to the Chicago Journal
Mr.. Robert L%incoln's political posi-
ton is this: "1am not in active poll
tics and will not stump Illinois nor
any othter state for Tilden and Hen
bricks or any other candidate"
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

"SLANGn will constitute much of
the stock in trade of the little Radi-
cad hand organs during the present
campaign. Confederate Congress
is a classic phrase they nov apply to
the present House of Representa-
tives. This of course is wonderfully
witty and very edifying, no doubt to
the average reader of these journals.
Well, it is a confederate Congress.
They are confederate" against cor
ruption in official places; "confede-
rate against all railroad and whisky
rings; confederate against the sale
of post-traderships, robbery, jobbery
and population in high places. They
are also confederate and hound by
solemn oath to uphold the Constitu-
tion of the United States and all
laws in conformity Herewith. To
this end you may always find them
on the side of law and order, and for
upholding the true glory and honor
of the country. Again, they are
confederate end bound by solemn
oath and firm convictions of duty to
see to it hat the public robbery
shall cease; that men in high Office
shall from the fourth of March next
refrain from gift taking; no nepotism
or personal favoritism shall be tole-
rated in the White House. They
are confederate and bound togeth-
er that office and place shall be be-
stowed on those that are worthy, and
not on those who through a base sys-
tenn of sale of traderships and other
places of trust and profit, fill the
pockets of those in high places. Yes.
call them eConfederate.n
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

So great is the political revolution
among the German Liberals of Gin
cinnati, Cleveland, Dayton and other
cities in Ohio, that all will give
large m~ajorities for Tilden and Re
form in October and November.
The ball is rolling and increasing
as it moves along.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

The editor of the Eaton Democrat
instead of troubling his brains about
the Hayes and Wheeler Club of Eat
on, had better learn how to drive y
pair of horses on a level road.-Eat-
on Register.
Probably the writer of the above
could give us a few lessons, as he is
no doubt a graduate in the business
alluded to-.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

MORTON, who is the most unscrup-
ulous and corrupt political dema-
gogue in the country, opened the
campaign at indianapolis last week,
on behalf of a little more power and
a little more plumber for the Repub-
lican party. His speech was char
acteristic of the man-fun of lies,
bitterness and Misrepresentation
1t will fail to have the effect intend
ed, because the people know the
author to be a corrupt demagogue.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

1t is doubtful whether any reader
of the Republican press knows that
the first person killed at the Ham
burg riot was a white man. Never
tneless such is the fact, and if the
able editor of the Register would
mention the fact it would greatly en-
conrape MS.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

Tildens plan: Reduction of sala-
ries and abolition OF needless offices;
removal of thieves out of the offices
and into the penitentiaries; reduc-
ton o fnaval expenses; retrenchment
and reform in every department OF
government, revival of confidence
and business and general prosperity
throughout the land.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

Grant is desperate and reckless.
He cares nothing for public opinion,
and during the next sever months
he intends to use all the power at his
disposal to crafty personal revenges
first. and next to contribute to Hayes
election, upon whom lie relies to per
petuate Grantism-"ife elected" The
situation at the capital is indeed
lovely to look upon.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

Why have your wages been reduc-
ed, and why has your property depre-
ciated; why is your house and lot
mortgaged to keep out of debt and
the future dark before your eyes?
Look to the thieves who have infested
the Republican party and destroyed
the nations credit, and there find the
answer.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

In the senate the venerable Hanni-
bal Hamlin compared the members
ofthe house to "angels ofdestruction,
scattering ruin around them" That
is exactly what they are. They
have discovered Republican thieves
enough in the last six months to fill
three or four good-sized penitentla-
ries.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17


The Radicals in Congress are ter
ribly frightened. They voted against
all reports of the Investigation Com
mittees; the Senate has refused to
print the list of defaulters under
Grants administration; Boutwell,
won't explain the change in the fig
ures of his Treasury reports; Grant
won't permit the papers showing the
management Of the Departments to
be examined outside of the offices;
Robson is likely to be impeached;
Belknap is impeached; Schenck is in
sured; Pierrepont has gone out of the
country; the honest public officers
are kicked out of office by Grant;
Zach Chandler is running the Presi-
dental canvass for Hayes while he is
in Grants Cabinet; the whisky
thieves are to be pardond; and all this
time the people are asked to elect
Hayes, and keep things just as they
now are for four years longe! Let's
have a change, is the demand of the
people. The ballot box will answer
this universal call, with Tilden, re.
form, economy, honesty, faithful pub
lie servents, and better times.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17
These fellows that talk of arebels.'

These fellows that talk of "rebels,"
harp on the "war" and a "Confede-
rate" Congress, plainly admit their
inability to discuss fairly and fully
the matters of interest to the peo-
pie, but the thieying and rascality
of the party in power cannot be hid
from the honest masses by any such

THE REPUBLICAN CONGRESS
SIGNAL CONVENTION.

The Republican Congressional
Convention ofthis District, which met
in Beckers Hall at Dayton on last
Thursday, is acknowledged by all
who were present, to have been the
most turbulent and uproarious that
ever met within the building. The
Dayton Democrat gives a rich and
spicy account of its proceedings.
It seems to have been a fight between
the Gunckel and Craighead faction,
and added to this was the cohort of
Allen, of Darke county, who had
been shipped there by the car load
to secure the nomination of the
Swamp Angel. Representative A. j.
Hawley, of Preble county, was made
Chairman of the Convention, which
the Democrat says was n of the
most unfortunate things connected
with it, because he had not a parti-
Gle of ability for the position and
could not control the assembly. On
taking the Chair, A. j. made what is
termed a s~pread-eagle speech of the
"good old Methodist class-meeting
style, and judging from his grammar
his early education was that of prim
tive character peculiar to the back
woods, as he referred frequently to
the "deestrictn and the speeches is
to be made" During the ballotting
the noise and confusion was terrible,
when a DR.. Green mounted the stage,
read the riot act and compared the
actors to the Modoc-Butler massacre
at Hamburg. 1t was rich and racy,
but dis gusted the intelligent portion
of the Convention.
On the tenth ballot JOHN HOWARD,
Esq, received the nomination. The
contest was close between him and
Allen, of Darke. Mr.. Howard is a
lawyer and a resident of the city OF
DAYTON, and the Democrat adds, is
a gentleman of pleasant manners, ex-
%cellent character, fair ability, too old
to enter the political arena, and
would make a poor Congressman
even if elected. His nomination was
not satisfactory to this county OF
Darke, and he will be beaten bad.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-08-17

According to the latest report sent
to the house, there are over 7000fed-
eral soldiers stationed in the south
ern states. What need is there for a
single soldier in that section, except
those required for garrison duty in
the sea-coast Notifications? Why
keep these thousands of men and
muskess where there is no earthly use
for them, when Terry and Crook and
their little handful of brave fellows
are hemmed in by hostile Indians and
begging for re-inforcements2 The
republican press is dcnouncing the
democratic house for cutting down
the army. The army, small as it is,
is amply sufficient to handle MI the
Indians on the continent, providing
it is sent where the Indians are. But
if aiarge portion of it is to be employ
ed in helping Hayes and Wheeler at
the south, Sitting Bull and Rain in
the-face can have things their own
way in the northwest. Eitherthe re-
republican ticket must beleft to work
out its own salvation in the southern
states, or the Sioux must remain mas
tiers of the Yellowstone region, unless
we choose to call out volunteers. It's
a mere question of patriotism and
partisanship, and as the republican
party controls the war Office there is
not much doubt how it will be de-
cided.
