'IGNORANT DEMOCRATIC MASS

The New York Tribune has become
one of the meanest and most malignant
Grant organs. That paper is now run
ming on the name and fame of Horace
Greeley, the man whom the Democratic
masses" supported for President against
Grant four years ago And now, this
weak and driveling Republican organ
talks of the blind adherence Of the ignorant
Democratic masses to Democratic candidateS." ."
We are happy to say the family Of
Horace Greeley support Tiden and Hen
bricks. They are above selling out hon
est convictions or bending the knee to
the murderous slanderers of Horace
Greeley, The Jay Gould Tribune may
traffic in the bones of the great and mag
nanimous founder that N. Y. Tribune,
but it is, some conf ,rt to know that the
family of Mr.. Greeley have too much re-
gard for his name a d fame, too high an
appreciation Of the generous Democracy
who rallied to his support four years ago,
to dishonort the noble sentiment of COM
mon gratitude.
The alarm for Indiana brings out in
the N. Y. Tribune of the Goth ult, the fol-
lowing specimen of its gall and malignity
"The fact that Democratic prospects in
Indiana, as viewed by an accurate and
careful correspondent, seem to be impro-
wing, is only louder call to Republicans
to work They have, no doubt eXcep-
tional obstacles to overcome-a large
Democratic majority two years ago, a
financial heresy which affects their own
organization in greater proportion than
their opponents, and the blind adherence
of the ignorant Democratic maSSsS to Demo
crate candidates. But the very character
of the elements of opposition should in
spire them with that genuine earnestness
which is itself half Of success"
-Four years ago this Tribune did not
designate thus the Democratic masses"
when we were all laboring to elect 1.-The
founder of the N Y. Tribune" over U, S.
Grant. The Democracy were not then
denounced and DETAINED in this way. The
great soul of the master then inspired
the Tribune. Since his death it has be-
come the poor organ of Jay Gould, and
descends, like other small-fry Grant
Hayes sheets, into the use Of unworthy
and blackguard terms, The extract
shows the great alarm that pervades the
Republican leaders, indicating that now,
as was not the case four years ago, the
People are disposed for retrenchment
and reform, and willyote fora change of
rulers. ,.,,,'.

TELL US SOMETHING WE DON'T
KNOW.

The Repository uncovered another
mares nest last week, claiming that
Doctor Arter offered to serve as Physi-
clan to the Infrmary for $3.50 a year, and
that the Directors" made a contract"
with DR.. Shepler for Sl75. The RpoSt-
tOry geniuses are not posted. Physician
to the Stark County Infrmary is not let
by contract is he chosen by the
Directors. The County Commissioners
are the authority, and for years the saIa-
ry has been fixed at $l75-was so fixed
by Republ can Commissioners, and these
county officials select the physician with
out advertising to let it out to the lowest
bidder. In fact, it is doubtful if any
respectable physician would put in bid
-quatks might,
If the Repository will inquire they will
find that Republican Commissioners paid
no attention whatever to offers Of the
kind referred to. The Repository folks,
like some others, try to be great on
small things.

"THLS UNHOLY UNION BETWEEN
NORTH AND SOUTH"

The course of the present Republican
party leaders shows their disunion hate
Today. Their Grant Administration has
sustained the Carpet Bag thieves in office
by the bayonets. These same leaders
robbed the negroes out of millions
through the Freedmen's Bank and BRAN
ches. On the part of these unprincipled
and selfish men there is no "Union of
hearts as to the South.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1876-10-05

The mighty Blaine, it seems, was called
upon to forego his appointment in Phil
adelphia, and hasten to Ohio ION the re-
quest Of Governor Hayes and Governor
Hartrantt," as he says in his letter. The
loyal Grant leaders in the bloody shirt
campaign must be badly scared about
Ohio. Wont it clear up things if Ohio
and Indiana come up booming for De-
noCracy and Reform on next Tuesday?
n that event the rings at Washington
will be badly broken.

The COlOred Man and the
Rebellion.

If the freedmen of the United States
were acquainted with their own his
tory and the history of our civil war,
or would listen to the truth coming
from Southern source, they would
he the last people on earth to denounce
the rebellion or curse the rebels,
who inaugurated the war which re-
suited in their freedom-fur that such
was the result Of that war no person
of intelligence, who has any regard
for truth, will pretend to deny; nor
will any such person, in the face of
their own declarations that are on
record, claim that their motives in
fighting the rebels were to free the
negroes.
1t is true the Southern people did
not inaugura'e secession for the pur-
pose of freeing the negroes, but it is
lust as true that the Federal authorities
did not war against it for that pur-
pose, if there is any truth in their
assertions, and tina, if it had not been
for the "rcbelion they would be
in slavery to-day. unless the Consti-
tuition of the United States had been
violated in peace, as it was in war !;
for when Lincoln was inaugurated
President of the United States he
positively asserted that it was not his
intention 10 interfere with slavery as
it existed, and his assertions were
approved and reiterated 10y Congress.
While it is true that the Southern
people placed no confidence in these
pledges Of a party that has always
made pledges only to break them,
and attempted to seccdc for the pur-
pose OF preventing gradual emancipa-
ton as well as for other more impor-
tant purposes, they did not spill so
much blood and spend so much
money for the sole purpose of pcrpc,-
ua,ing slavery-iudeed it was at all
times during the war regarded As one
of the least important reasons for
keeping up the wa:-as was proven
by the replies of the Confederate
authorities to all offers: Of peace based
upon the promises Of the United
States authorities to perpetuatc
slavery. Those replies always were
1--WE are not lighting for slavery, bu,
for Independence"
These are matters of history. Their
why are colored people so ignorant
and silly a. to curse the rebellion ant
the rebels? We know that some o
them who do this arc acquainted Will
these facts. too.
