Ep. RsrupLicAS-De Dear Sir Last week, ihors
appeared In that scurriIous sheet, yclept Ladas-
trial ~ World. an article that for falsehood and
maligni,y surpasses anything that has heretofore
come to the surface In that ccss-pool OF eorrup
tion. The writers forgot the old adags, that
"Those who live in glass houses should not throw
stones" The guaek sing duck tuay think hs has

when he made II 80 himself.
"0h shame, Mr.. Dideaus,
You should not do so."
Although you found fault with Charleys ticket.
you did not do ~ with his ale that was all
right. Bot, Mr.. Editor, this was tripartite pro-
duction. Two aceomcheurs were not sufficient to
bring forth the bantline, hat they had 10 call In

enough Of this.
The people Of Gulich. generally, will compare
mvorably with any community. Not 50 with the
'76crs Ia our midst. There Is not hMEa-doSen
men Of respectabiity In the township connected
with them. A few p,rsons wanting Office organ

the whole lodge Of '56ers--ahd ninc out Of ten Of
these 76eIs pensioners on the charity Of one Of
these Democratic families, owing them from 500

Not so with the tripvts IN the late war; One
spent the tine Of his enlistment In the horse pefs,
as be delights to coll II one in tho ambulauec,

Township Treasurer, should walt until he Is nat.

appointed nine years ago by the School Board,
without any solicitation on bis part, performing
the duties with fidelity, elected twice without op-
position, paying out hundreds Of dollars Of his
own money to save the credit Of the township
faugh the two should not be spoke Of on the
same day. The only "os'-ailant and would-be
as" to le seen that day, was blatant boy '76er,
who thrcated to shoot the Prank-cst Democrat
we have. The owner Of the black mare would
have more than FIVE cents. IL Tom and Bill would

Mine host Of the large oaibre, may not have the
kHo,ciedge sufficient to sell alcohol without H.

but be does know enough to be honest and vote
as he pleascs, without fear Of the 76ers.
