The weekly register. [volume] (Point Pleasant, Va. [W. Va.]) 1862-1909, 1876-08-17

Say, mister "weak-kneed" Demo
crat, won't you admit that you would
good deal rather see sebriIl and
Eastman elected than any of their
opponents? You know, viewing both
political parties, our worst man is
better than the best on the Radical
ticket. There is more brain, moral
ity and old-fashioned honesty in any
one Of our men, than can be found
among all the Radical candidates
combined. Now, just slip down off
the fence and fall in rank with us,
and We will whoop up such a Demo-
cratic majority as will strike terror to
the hearts of our Radical brethren.
The Radical whoopers in Indiana
are circulating the story that Gov.
Tilden is about to send s3,5000O0 in
to that State to buy up the voters
They refer to these millions with
evident satisfaction, and it is moral
ly certain that if Uncle Samuel real
ly would send that amount of cash
where the Radicals could get at it,
the box would be robbed within
twentg-sourAoEss before negotiations
could be inaugurated with the gen
eral voting public.
The Radical Legislature Of New
Hampshire went to work the other
day and removed every Democratic
Oflice-holder in the State from his
position. They made a clean sweep
through the counties, and are now
rejoicing in horde of anti.reform
officials, The effect of this move
ment has been to stir up the Demo
Gratis to organize compactly, and the
prospect is that the State will go for
Tilden and Hendricks.
The Republicans have been promiS-
ing peace and prosperity for eleven
long years, and the reason the people
are going. to overthrow the great
fraud in November is because, while
so promising, that party has been
disturbcr of the peace, a plundercr of
the people, and has by that means
impoverished the whole country
Hayes promises, too, 1t is the same
old story. The people do not believe
him, and they are right.
Let us sec how the Germans in
Ohio are going for Hayes. Out of
twenty-seven German papers in that
State, nineteen are earnestly advoca-
ting Tilden, Hendricks and Reform,
five are for Gmntism as Endorsed by
Rutherford b. Hayes, and three are
on the fence. The Cincinnati Volks-
blatt is the only Hayes paper
which has any appreciable inlluncc.
We call attention to the manly
letter of MrJA. ~. Hanly, in this is
sue of the Register, which reflects great
credit upon him, and which would
be a very good thing for some of the
Democrats in this place, who are now
sowing the seeds Of discord, to read
and digest We commend the letter
to them. This letter will make the
voters hurrah for Hanly for next
Sheriff, four years hence.
Gov. Mathews addressed the peo-
pie of Mason county last Saturday,
His speech was brilliant and elo-
Quent, and sent terror into the Rad
ical household, when he made charg-
os against their party, and from facts
and figures proved them, We have
not time or space to speak at length
of his speech, in this issue, therefore
have to content oursclf with Il pass
ing notice. We hope Mr.. Mathews
will pay our county another visit
during the campaign.
Dinna ye hear the Slogan? The
people are comingl Alabama speaks!
