MCKINLEY, the Republican candidate
for Congress, is going about the District
witRa statement that no corruption has
been discovered in Washington among
the Republican officials. We warn the
people not to believe him. The Major
hasn't been reading the Reporter.-Lee-
tOnia Reporter
The Major may not have been reading
the Reporter but he had read other papers
and documents, for ne is not so ignorant
as all that comes to, Mckinley knows
as well as the editor Of the Reporter, or
any one else that the Radical hordes at
Washington and elsewhere are vicious
and vile and badly need cleaning out, for
there is no such thing as reforming them.
No corruption been discovered al WASHINGTON
among Republican officials, says Major Nc
Kinley! AS far buck as 1870, Dawes, Of
Massachusetts, denounced the admins
tration as corrupt. Late developments
in every direction establish and demon
strate the indubitable fact. We need
only name Belknap, Delano, Schenck,
Boss" Shepherd, BabCock, Credit Mo-
bilier, Black Friday, Indian frauds, Gus
tom House robberies, etc., etc. All these
Major Mckinley knows as well as any
body, and we are utterly astonished at
what the Reporter reports him as saying.

THE RECORDERHI1IP.
WILCOX OR MANLY 2


Mr.. EDIToR-I notice the Repository is
striving, by low and malignant personal
attack, TO defeat p. L. Manly for Recor
der of Stark county, and elect its third
term candidate, Mr.. Wilcox. Now, ser
iously, has not Mr.. Wilcox Jared well,
and all that his merits entitle him to, in
having had six continuous years as Re-
corderP He has probably averaged three
girl clerks, showing a good run Of bust
ness. He has built him splendid man
sion in your city, and lives sumptuously.
The Repository ought really to withhold
it's Know Nothing venom toward Mr..
Manly under the circumstances,
know not what Mr.. Wilc0x's religious
views are, or indeed whether he has
any. Neither do l know, for it is none
of my business, what Mr., Manly's relig-
ious tenets are. But one thing / do know
as to Manly that he never built grand
mansion and dead beat" or defFauded,
IN Nhole or iD pan, and in various sche
ming ways, the mechanics and workmen
who put labor and material in it. Man
ly, being a laboring man himself, and
honest to the line Of the golden rule,
would act the man with all who furnish
ed him lumber, glass, paint, putty or la
Dor. | just mention this for the benefit
OF the Repository and all concerned
wink to blind horse is good as a nod.
So thinks-Yours for truth and right

New YoRK's great day at the Centen-
nial Exposition was Thursday, last week.
Her great Governor, SAMUEL ]. TILDEN,
was on hand. and the centre of attrac-
tion. The ovation given him was simply
tremendous. On the grounds were 190-
600 people2 And all were anxious to
see the man who will be the next Presi-
dent. President Grant was on the ground,
but nobody seemed to care about him.
Governor Tilden undertook to see the
Exposition, but the crowd accompanying
was so immense he could see nothing of
the show. Never mind, Governor, it
will all come right. The people, you see,
are in earnest. The Governors recep-
ton was at the New York House, where
he spoke to the people briefly.

FROM SANDY VALLEY.

The scattered remnants of the Repub-

Oneida, met at Malvern, Friday evening
last, and we're addressed by the elegant
"Majah" in the town hall. His audience
perhaps numbered two hundred. But a
telegram in Cleveland Leader next morn
ing says: Largest meeting held in this
county for years." The sender of that
dispatch must certainly have had very
painful and vivid recollection of the
Jewell meeting the previous week at
Minerva, tt.a..

"DEMOCRATIC THIEVES"


The Repository of last week has an arti.
Gle headed as above, and $4 1864, 1896
and also, "They rob the Government Of
Millions"
The article is signed S. S. B., and dated
Washington, D. G. OF course the tissue
Of falsehoods was prepared by order Of
the Boss Shepherd Chandler gang Of
thieves, and we see is published in the
Grant Hayes organs oil around.
The fret dash is to abuse the 'ex-Con-
federAte House Of Representatives" This
body, these Washington thieves, are bit
ter against, as the Democratic majority
in the House cut down expenditures
THIRTY MILLIONS, and much interfered
with the thieving operations of these
scoundrels. They are savage and bitter,
of course.
The article runs back to 1880, and
gathers up list of Democratic default
ers," showing in the thirty years loss OF
over four millions. During that time
however, there were two Wing admins
trations of four years each, all which S.
S. B. does not refer to. Such is the fair
ness OF these Radical official thieves at
Washington. The article names Swart-
Wout, Collector Of the port of New York,
under jackson, whose defalcation was
81 ,2O5, 1000; but S. S. B, does not state that
this amount was collected of the sureties,
as we remember. Jesse Hoyt, successor
to Swartwout, from 1888 to lS4l, fol
SPAS, 900, &ll which too, we believe, was
collected from the sureties on the bond.
The article charges Jacob Thompson,
Secretary of the Interior, under Bu-
chanan, with 1871 900, and a large
amount unknown. A short time ago
t1is Grant Administration was to bring
suit. against Thompson, but we have
heard nothing of it, and the presumption
is that the charge is trumped up.
These three items disposed of cuts off
So, $4,000
Of the other 96 cases in the Navy,
War, Interior, Post-ofice, and other de-
partments, we know nothing. They are
mostly small accounts, comparatively,
and quite likely many or most OF them
are false. These losses, however, even
admitting them, running over thirty
years is very small, compared with the
monster frauds and thieving ofthe Grant
Radical regime. Bailley's theft of f$67l,-
600, in 1871, no suit has been brought
against the sureties, who are ricE Radio
ais of new York. So is it with Others
Curtis, of Harper's Weekly, and Medill,
of the Chicago Tribune, of the Civil Ser
vice Commission and appointed by Grant,
said in their report thai one-fourth of the
revenues collected by the Government
was lost on their way to the treasury
that is, to get three hundred millions in
to the U. S. Treasury, one hundred mil
lions are stolen by Radical officials
Can the Repository name any civilized
country with an Administration so infa-
mously corrupt? Much too, Of these
stolen millions has been and is used cor
ruptly in carrying elections. Chandler,
Boss Shepherd, and the Other leaders
are now engaged in the same practices to
retain power-and thus 'tis seen the
wicked prize itself buys all the land.
