What is the matter with the lronton |
Democrat2 1t does not say word about |
the st. Louis Convention. Going TO |
"squeal H'-[ Jackson Standard.
This paper is in most excellent health. |
Its editor doesn't humbug Sabbath
School Children on Sunday, and make
pasttime of destroying the good names
Of honest men and virtuous women dur
ing the week, as does the hatchet-faced
hypocritical humbug of the STAEDARD.
You have enough to do to hoodwink the
good people of jackson county, with your
egstistical "slag" and false pretense. So
wipe off your chin, you old viper and
quit insulting the Almighty with your
sham virtue.
Brother Combs is cruel. We desire to
inform him that our face Is fuller now
than it was when he last saw us, and
that we are heavier now than we ever
were. How is your nose, Bro. Combs
Red as ever2
Bro. Combs said in his paper last week:
Reform in high places will restore con-
fidence in the lower walks Of life. Tilden
and Hendricks represent true reform.
short time before the st. Louis Con-
vention Bro. Combs said
"Tilden seeks to buy his way to the
Presidential chair with money stolen
from the masses of the people, and in
the advocacy of doctrines which enrich
the few and impoverish the many he
hopes to be elected. He is a fraud on
the people and his so-called reform mea-
sure is O. sham.
Such inconsistency as that is enough
to upset any mans stomach. What con-
idence can be placed in a'man, or in a
paper, guilty OF such inconsistency
Here is worse case still. Bro. Gould,
of the Jackson Herald, came at US last
week in this style:
The swilltub presided over by Davis
Mackley is appreciated all over the State
and the editor sustains the unenviable
reputation of being the champion liar of
the Ohio Press. His slang Injuries not
those at whom it is ejected-all high
minded men know the vile hearted and
foul-mouthed libel upon decency and
humanity who weekly pours out the in
ceptions of a malignant heart through
the columns of the STANDARD. His foul
abuse of more respectable people than is
Davis Mackley, only shows to what
depths of infamy and degradation man
may fall.
Now what in the world is the matter
with Bro Gould2 He is a highton
Christian gentleman, who regularly at
tends Sabbath School and Church. Our
relations with him have been most
friendly, pleasant and agreeable. We
have said no harmful word about him,
nor do we intend to do so. Then how
could you be so naughty, Bro. Gould
Here is the explanation. Last week
Bro. Gould said:
Tilden was not our first choice but
still we go him.
And this:
We therefore throw to the breeze this
week our banner, and in the name of
Tilden and Hendricks, the nominees of
the National Democracy, demand the
correction of all errors real or imaginary,
''t0ithin the party" and ask all men
who are in favor of better times and
more money-not imitation, but loosening
up of what we now have, to vote for
TILDEN AND REFORM
Now we clip the following plank in the
Democratic platform, from the Herald:
We denounce the financial inability
and immortality of that party which, for
eleven years of peace, has made no adj
vance toward resumption, no preparation
for resumption but instead has OBJ
structed resumption by wasting our re-
sources and exhausting all our surplus
income, and while annually protesting to
intend a speedy return to specie pay
ments, has annually enacted fresh him
derances thereto.
As such hinderance we denounce the
resumption clause of the act of 1875, and
we here demand its repeal.
That plank is very emphatic, and does
not propose to loosen up" to any alarm
ing extent. 1t demands, and urges re-
sumption, and arraigns the Republican
party for not having brought on re-
sumption before this time, and demands
a repeal of the resumption act because it
has been hindrance to resumption.
We had been under the impression
that the Herald had little confidence in
Sam Tilden's" reform professions. We
gathered this impression from the fol-
lowing article, published as editorial in
the Herald June l6, 1876:
The New York Sun thinks there is
nothing in the way of the nomination of
Sam Tilden, but the two-thirds rule !
The Sun is mistaken, the people of the
West are in the way of Sam Tilden's
nomination, we think he cannot be NOM
mated at st. Louis upon any pretext or
pretense, nor elected if nominated, and
hard-money advocates in the Democratic
party had better look that rugged
fact in the face now than after
the nomination is made The West
wants no bullionist at the head of the
ticket-our people are terribly in earnest
upon this currency question. Stagnated
business and unemployed labor has made
men desperate, and the present is no
time for foolishness. The nominee of
the St. LOUIS Convention can be elected
without the vote of New York, but we
think the free men of the Empire State
in the rural districts, will agree with the
producers of the West, that we cannot
force resumption without producing gen
| eral ruin, that contraction should cease,
and they will vote for candidate whose
views OF prosperity are not confined to
New York City, but take in the whole
country.
And also this editorial, in the same
column:
Cast thy bread upon the waters, and
it will return again after many days"
So Tilden thinks.
We have before US a large sheet con-
tanning extracts from one hundred and
yffty-eigh papers, papers North, South,
East and West, all in favor of Tilden the
Reformer for President True, they read
very monotonous. but that may be the
fault of the advertising agency that sends
them out to be inserted in all the papers
