Republican love for the soldier is
very deep and gushing about the
time votes are needed to put some
member of their Ring into Office.
That it ends there has been demon
strated in this county several times,
but not more glaringly than at the
late Republican County and Congress
sional Conventions. HOWARD never
was in the army, and beat a Union
soldier. Capt. Ed. CorrINeHAM sery-
ed faithfully and honorably as a SOL
dier during the whole rebellion
twice he has asked for the nomina-
ton of the Sherif's office in this
county, and both times stay at-home
civilians have beat HMM the last
Ring Convention he received one
vote and a man who never served in
the army a month, received the NOM
nation! Now, amt they a nice set
of men to be continually blating a
bout love for the Union soldier?

1t is a truth to which every mer-
chant who trades with the South will
testify, that when Southern State is
able to throw off the corrupt yoke, the
prosperity ofits merchants increas-
es, theircred improves, and business
generally receives an impetus. The
reason is that a period of dishonesty
and corruption in the State Govern
mcnt has been succeeded by one o
honesty and integrity, andthe former
ly discouraged people get again a spir
it of enterprise, without which bust
ness stagnates. On a larger scale, b.
electing Tilden President, we shall
throw off the incubus of corruption
thievery, extravaganza, and harsl
taxation which has distinguished tn,
period of Grantism.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-09-07

Whilst the Mortons and Wheelers
and Campaign money Kilpatricks are
harping about the sconfederates''
and "rcbels" and straitors" of the
South, and waving the bloody shirt
to win and hold easy-minded Repub-
licans within the ranks of the corrup-
tionists, the Republicans of Missouri,
one of the old 'rebel'' slave states,
adopted the following:
ResolUed, That the Republican
party stands eser ready to welcome
to full fellowship any and all persons
who have ever been in the councils
or camps of the rebellion, so that the
ealor and heroism of americans,
qohether born of fright or wrong judy.

devotion to a nation whose great
foundation was laid by our common
fathers.

The New York World very sue
cinctly states the restrictions upon
Federal power and the limits of gov
ernmental interference in state af-
fairs. These constitute the fall
measure of Democratic demands,
and should they be exceeded there
will be a call upon the legality of the
nation to resist the threteaned attack
upon its in tegrity and the violation
of its constitution.
/. That the president shall not use
or permit the use ofthe military arm
of the nation till called upon by the
Legislature of the state, if it is in
session or can be convened; and il
not by the legislature, then by the
executive, setting forth why the legis-
lature is not or cannot be assembled
2. That the exigency for the use Of
the federal military arm be such that
it cannot be adequately dealt with by
the state.
8. That the military when employ.
ed be to enforce order, and only un
der the direction of Judicial officers
and for the purpose Of compelling
obedience to the lawful process.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-09-07

When the editor of the Eaton Reg
lister, or any other person says that
we at any time called Union soldiers
"Lincoln hirelings" and ''nigger
thieves" he deliberately and mali
ciouslyl lies: But, in the name of
common sense-in the name of all
that is decent and honorable--is the
intelligence ofthe voters of Preble
county to be insulted by such stuff

of Preble county for any official po-
sition, and if the peurile, childish and
contemplate charge of the editor was
true, Mr.. Lewellen is not response
BILE. We are tired of such miserable
balderdash and of seeing men write
themselves down natural born asses
by eternally making use of it. The
war is over and settled, and the man
who allows his vote to be influenced
by such scum, is as much to be pitied
as the fool that writes and publishes
it.

"When l again have the privilege

The Radicals are really quite dis
pleased with Tilden because he would
not walk into their nice little trap
and make an awful fuss about his
income in $50 and $50 before there
was any income tax. They consid-
err his conduct al very improper, in
fact quite ungrateful in keeping SO
cool and SO quietly pricking their big
bubble with a word, when they had
gone to such trouble, not only to in
fate their unsubstantial Pigment, but
to paint its gauzy sides with such
loud and iaring colors. Are there
any other points in the Governors

quire into, to divert attention from
their own delinquency?

Northen Ohio Democrat: In his
speech at indianapolis, Morton lied
about the proceedings of Congress;
lied about the war; lied about the
south; lied about Tilden and Hen
bricks; lied about better men than
himself; lied about the st. Louis Con
vention; lied about the issues; lied
about the history Of both parties,
and did not tell the truth relative to
anything which he spoke. He is q
liar and a slanderer, and if he was
an able bodied man, would be told tc

IS THIS PROTECTION
Tax on Farmers.

The farmer starting to his work
has shoe put on his horse with nails
taxed 81 per cent, driven by a ham
mer taxed 81 per cent; cuts a stick
with a knife taxed so per cent.
bitches his horse to a pillow taxed so
per cent, with chains taxed 81 per
cent. He returns to his home at
night and lays his wearied limbs OF
a sheet taxed So per cent, and COW
ers himself with a blanket that has
paid $50 per cent. He rises in the
morning, puts on his humble flannel
shirt taxed 80 per cent, his coat tax
ed so per cent, shoes taxed 35 per
cent, and hat taxed 10 per cent. j;
"Opens family worship by q chapter
from his Bible taxed % per cent,
and kneels to his God on a humble
carpet taxed $50 per cent. He sits
down to his humble meal from aplate
taxed 40 per cent, with knife and
fork 80 per cent, drinks his cup OF
coffee taxed AT per cent, or tea Is
per cent, with sugar 70 per cent.
seasons his food with salt taxed 100
per cent, pepper 297 per cent, or
spice 379 per cent. He looks around
upon his wife and children all taxed
in the same way; takes a chew of to-
bacco taxed 100 per cent, or lights a
cigar taxed 120 per cent, and then
thanks his stars that he lives in the
freest and best government under
heaven.
And all the while the bloated bond
holder pays not one cent of tax on
bonds that cost him, through robber
syndicates, but forty or fifty cents ON
the dollar. Long have the farmer,
mechanic and laborer shut their eyes
and voted to continue in power those
who have undone them. But there
is an awakening now. and neither
the bloody shirt nor lavish expendi-
lures of stolen boards of money will
save the party from overthrow.

AS we have never interviewed
either of the candidates for Sheriff
in regard to their. patronage, our
support is not controlled by any pro-
misses on that score, as the Register
admits its is. We suppose that is
the reason it supported an incompe-

When the honest old farmer dele.
gates, who were 'shoodwinked" out

their promises of the patronage Of

they will not likely feel themselves

The idea that Sheriff TOWNSEND

ridiculous to entertain a moment. We
