A Plea for the Bone and Stnew Of the

LEWIS COUNTY, July %, 1876.
Editors of the Register.
1 suppose it would not be out of place
to saw a word to the Democratic party OF
this Congressional district, before they
assemble IN convention to make their
nomination.
The two leading parties of the country
have put forth their men for President
and Vice President, also their platforms.
They have SAID great deal about purity.
SC, but they both fail in saying 10 the
people that they intend to make all OF
the citizens stand alike before the law
of right. Have they no feeling tor the
bone and s!new of the government? Why
do they forget the laboring class? Can
they not see they are to-day bearing the
burden of themselves and the capital
of the country? All that the mass OF
the people wants is chance, and they
will soon make all stand alike in regard
to taxation. They will be satisfied when
government bonds are taxed like other
property, and nothing short of this will
satisfy them. -,
Let the people of this Congressional
district nominate man that Is in favor
of Congress amending the law creating
the bonds, so as to let the states have the
power to tax these bonds as other prop
erty. This will relieve the laboring
man IN just way, and equalize capital
and labor to some extent. Hon. j. j..
Davis, of Clarksburg, made an effort in
the st. Louis convention to make some
amendment IN this direction, but failed.
The present bonded system OF the gen.
eral. government and its blighting effect
upon the principles of Republican or
Democratic government, Is visible in the
ranks of the bondholders. They seem
10 think more of the bonds than they do
of the government or of the rights ofthe
people.
Tilden and Hendricks are taking with
the people; and it may be that the voice
of the people will be heard at the Con-
gressional convention. If so there will
be no trouble to elect Democrat to
Congress.
Crops are good and the farmers are
getting a good return for their labor
from the land. LEWIS COUNTY.
