each other as hymn book to the pictures in

Even the Eaton Democrat approves

Even the Eaton Democrat approves
the Presidents policy.-Register.
We have been approving that pol
icy for twenty five years-it is good,
simon pure democracy, and we can't
go back en- it, even though a fraud
ulent President does see fit to adopt
it. It is what Democrats demanded
in the last campaign, and proves that
they were right and the Republicans
wrong. Democrats will indorse and
assist all the acts of the administra-
ton which harmonic with demo-
cratic principles, and repudiate and
oppose everything which does not
come Up to that standard. Thus far
Mr.. HAYES has done little or nothing
to which a consistent Democrat could
reasonably object, and if he holds
out as he has begun his only ire
conciliable enemies will be members
ofhis own political household. Those
who indorse his so-called southern
policy do not propose to shoulder
all his doings, good, bad and indif-
ferent, by a long shot. for he is not
their choice or the choice of the
American people. They will help
the country to get all the benefit it
can from a four years usurpation,
but they have no favors to ask of a
man who occupies a place that be-
longs to another. flour Republican
friends can gather any comfort from
the Endorsement of the usu-per a.
dopting a demoeraticpolicy, they are
welcome to it. Mr.. HAYES can't in
jure the Democratic party by such a
course.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1877-05-17

A terrible calamity occurred in the
town of Rockford, ILL.,, on Friday last,
causing the death of fifteen OF TWEEN
ty men and fatally injuring several
more. A new Court House was about
being finished and the massive stone
cornice which preceded the roof was
being put on that day. Just as the
keystone was being placed in the
dome of the main pavilion, the brick
work between the iron and stone gave
way, and the entire dome and the in
terror walls of the structure came
crumbling down with a fearful crash
that was heard nearly a mile away,
bringing with it nearly all the work
men who were operating on the top
of the building, some twenty-five in
number. The scene around the ruins
is said to have been sad indeed.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1877-05-17

We are amazed to hear Republi-
cans declare that Hayes has gone
back on the Republican party, and
must pay the penalty of his treason.
Less than two moons ago, the lead
ers and the mass of the party pledged
the country to precisely the course
adopted by Mr.. Hayes, but it is now
impudently set up by the conspira-
tors, that public pledges were not
made to be kept, only to secure the
Presidency after that the Blaines and
Mortons were to take charge and die
tate the policy which was to maintain
bayonets in the South and stir up con,
ficts and aggressions for the main
tainance of carpet-baggers and plum
derers. There is OILY one great griev-
ance in this whole business, and that
is on the part of the Democracy
Hay es has the same right to the Pres.
idency that Packard had to the Gu
bernatorial chair of Louisiana, which
is just no right at all. The defect in
the title is now admitted which will
be made so plain, by the very authors
of the corrupt scheme, that no hon
est man can defend it.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1877-05-17

The Radicals are in the minority.
They have little hope of success in a
contest before the people and hence
their desire to reinforce their wan
ing strength from the late rebels.
To gain from this source promises
of a pacifcatory policy towards them
were necessary. Probably this poll
cy may win to the Radicals a few
Southern men, but certainly not
strength enough to again set that
party on its legs. The Southern peo-
pie certainly cannot forget the recent
years of suffering endured at the
hands of the Republican party; GER
tainly they are not confiding to the
point that We uld induce them to sur
render their political convictions and
join hands with those who for years
have maligned and oppressed them
that party thrift might follow, and
who now only propose to do. right
that they may again have the might
to do wrong, as in the past.
