Two More Votes for Hayes,

Jake Rehm, the chief conspirator ofthe
Chicago Whiskey Ring, who was put be-
hind bars by the determined efforts of
Secretary Bristow, was pardoned out of
prison on Monday by the President OF the
United States.
Anton Caesar Hesting, the rascally Boss
of the Ring, has been enjoying the free
air for several weeks, also pardoned by
the President of the United States.
These two men and their contederates,
all of whom are now free, pardoned out
of prison by the President of the United
States, robbed the nation of more than
three million dollars.
Hesing was an educated, accomplished
| man, politician who dictated nominal
tions to Congress and to the Legislature
Rehm, his chief tool, was vulgar, sordid
| illiterate scounderel. The pair were
equally,,bold, equally inscriptions, and
equally prominent in one of the most in
famous schemes Of public yillainy TO bC
found in history.
Grant has therefore provided at leas
| two more votes in Illinois tor Hayes ant
against Tilden and reform.

Accordingly. Monday morning, Charles r.

and il less than halt an hour $500 was
raised towards the project; j. S, keator

by c. II. Deere, George W. Vinton, aud
two Others for like amount. IL is stated,
on whe, is considered good authority, that
George Wagner will donate 500, and that

lively canvassed, the necessary sum eau be
raised, but if the subject is allowed to cool
the amount $4,000 Will not be obtained,
Everybody who can, should help some, and
secure, if possible, the location of the
grounds at this point.
The committee &c. H. Deere and A. L.
Fisk having the matter in charge, have

hoped that they will continue to work the
matter up thoroughly. IF proper effort i
shown the next county fair will be held at

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25-House After

sons grown to manhood who at the first
tap of the drum went to the field to fght
10 the cause of the south, They had not
stayed to reason about it, and they fought
from Bull Run to Appomattox, but
not all of them; one of them
was sleeping as Antietem, one at Chancell-
orsville, one at Chickahominy, and anotire r
in Kentucky. But two OF them were at
Appomattox battle-scarred They had
seen the flag go down, which they had fol-
lowed with unfaltering devotion. One Of
these lives, who now addresses this house.
The soldiers had fought out the war with
bayonets, musket, and cannon, and then
ceased fighting.
The reason why there was not peace
was because few selfish, restless political
agitators still wanted to keep up the fight
and their weapons were asses jaw bones
Laughter and applause He was op
posed to participating in that kind Of
warfare. He wanted peace His people
had sent him to talk peace, to help bring
about reconciliation and good understand
ing. He said that he had seen enough OF war
and wanted peace; he wanted reconciia-
ton and brotherhood all over the country;
that was why he proposed to vote for the
bill, for he thought that the tendency of
the celebration was to promote peace.
