under the sham Of Reform this humilia'

The Register, in order to avoid the
odium Of this high.handed piece Of ma
chine despotisp, comes out and explains
that II is not intended to apply to Demo-
crats, but only to recruits from the Re-
publican party who may wish to come
forward to-day and identify themselves
with the party of "Reform." These are
the persons upon whom dog collars are
to be put to-day. They alone are to be
dsifranchised. They are to be required
to pass "sub jugum' in token Of the ab-
solute emasculation Of all their manhood
by the Star Chamber Committee Of the
Ohio county Democracy. Even. il this
explanation of the Register we re correct,
the adoption of such rule is an ever
lasting disgrace to the committee. The
idea Of putting such collar as this on a
voter is unworthy of'the Centennial year
OF our free government. Because for
sOoth a citizen who may wish to vote the
general ticket Of the Democratic party
this fall willInot pledge .himself'to vote
for Teddy o'Flagher.y for Sheriff, or Bar;
ney Maloney for Constable, he is to be de-
MED allrights whatever at the polls to-day.
II, for, instance, "a citizen intends to
vote for Tilden and Hendricks, and for
all the Democratic State ticket, with the
single exception perhaps Of okey John
son for Judge, he will not be entitled
under this rule to a vote. Anybody has
the right to challenge him and interro-
gate him, and II he will not pledge him
self in advance to vote for every single
dead beat on the ticket, down to the low
est Office, his vote can be thrown out.
Such is Democracy in Ohio county in

CHICAGO, August 4.-A dispatch from
General Terry, received Al General
Sherman's headquarters this morning,
says that on the q Of July, he would
proceed up the Rosebud with the view Of
forming a junction with General Crook.
The dispatch further states that the
news from every quarter indicate that
the Indians are all breaking up into
small war parties, with the view Of de.

MAYOR SWEENEY seems to be under the
impression that he smells a rat in the
preparations Of the great Reform party
to take the vote OF its vox populi at the
polls to-day. He therefore issnes a
caveat in our local columns to his friends
to look out for cheating in the matter Of
tickets. The Mayor knows the inner
workings OF the Democratic machine and
how closely ii will bear watching. He
has run with the machinists long enough

Ex-Governor stevenson ON the

Governor Stevenson was the third and
last orator. The Governor is not the
pleasantest speaker in the world, but he
has peculiar faculty for holding and en-
pertaining an audience, and on this occa-
sion, though it was late hour when he
took the stand he kept his crowd and en-
tertained them for about one hour. The
Governors speech was confined princi-
pally to the discussion OF State affairs, in
which he arraigned the Democratic party
in about the same style as he did in the
platform at Parkersburg, and which 10

A SERIES OF DENUNcIATIoNs.


Tho st. Louis platform denounces the
failure for eleven years to make good the
promise to redeem legal tender,notes, it dc.
nounces the omission to accumulate any
reserve for their redemption, 1t denounces
the conduct which, during eleven years Of
peace, has made no advances toward re-
sumption, no preparations for resumption,
but instead has ,obstructed resumption by
wasting our resources and exhausting all
our surplus income, and while protesting
to intend speedy return to specie pay
ments, has annually enacted fresh hinder
ances thereto, and having first denounced
the barrenness OF the promise OF u day
Of resumption, il next denounces
that barren promise as a hindrance
to the resumption, It then demands its
repeal, and also demapds the establish
ment Of q judicious system Of preparation
for resumption. II cannot be doubted
that the substitution Of q system OF pre-
paration without the promise Of day,
for the worthless promises OF aday with
out n system OF preparation, would be
the gain OF the substance OF resump-
tionin exchange for It's shadow, nor Is
the indictment unmerited Of that improvi
dence, which in the eleven years since the
peace, has consumed forty.fye hundred
millions OF dollars, and yet could not
afford to give tho people q sound and
stable currency. Two and half per cent
In the expenditures Of these eleven years,
or even less, would have provided all ad.
ditional coin needed for resumption. The
distress nowfelt by the people in allbui.
ness and industries, though II has its
principal cause in the enormous waste Of
capital occasioned BY the falsepolicies Of
our government, has been greatly aggra.
