The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1877-07-19

THE Akron Beacon and Tuscarawas Ad-
v0cate seem to be much troubled about
"the Democratic party of Stark county"
We would inform our Hayes cotempora-
ries, that the gentlemen filling the county
Offices in Stark, elected thereto as Demo-
Gratis, are Democrats and as public Off
GERS, discharge their duties under the laws
faithfully. AS to the religious faith of
the gentlemen in question, respectively,
it is no business of ours, nor is it any bu-
siness of our friends of the Beacon or Id
vOcate. The Jefersonian test is-"Is he
honest, is he capable, is he faithful to
the Constitution" and this covers the
ground. The Democracy of Stark be-
lieves in the Constitution, which secures
liberty of conscience and freedom of
speech. The Democracy, when in pow
er, never sought to abridge these rights,
never arbitrarily nor illegally interfered
with their exercise, neither in peace nor
in war.
The Beacon takes great freedom with
individual cognomens. It's religious lib
erty seems to consist largely in proclaim
ing denominational attachment, regard
less Of verify.

WHY is it the Repository New Lisbon
Buckeye State, Youngstown Register and
other Republican sheets hereabouts will
not treat Judge Meyer with common de-.
cency? These papers assail the Judge
because he sentenced Naughton for only
two years, and make statements as
though trial was had and facts elected
as to Naughton's previously threatening,
&C., thus showing an aggravated case.
Now the fact is, the man plead guilty,
and hence there was no trial before Judge
Meyer, The prosecuting attorney, Re-
publican, made a statement of the case,
and ex Judge Amber for the defendant,
also made a statement, afler all which,
sentence was passed, All that Judge
Meyer knew of the case, or of the defen-
dant, was given as we state. We could
refer to sentences passed by other Judg-
es in this district that were much more en-
titled to comment. If Judge Meyer
we're Republican, these papers would
have nothing to say on this Naughton
sentence. Let these journals bear in
mind that Judge Meyer will compare fa-
vorably with his predecessors and col
leagues on the Bench as to legal attain
ments and conscientious integrity Of pur-
pose. We cannot understand why it is
public journal should refuse to treat po-
litical opponent with common fairness
and decency, especially after he is elect
ed, and is acting under oath. Hae.

HORRIBLY INITIATED.

Deadwood, D. T., Jnly 1.-THE Black
Hills Times publishes the following this
evening as an extra. We learn from Mr..
John McKelvey Of st. Paul, that this af-
ternoon as the Bismarck stage arrived at
point two miles north of Bear Battles,
and ten miles from Crock City, they came
upon the bodies of two men and one wo-
man lying in the road. The men were
shot and scalped, the woman shot, scalp.
ed and horribly mutilated. The muir
dered party were. travelling by OK team.
The contents of their wagon were scat
tered promiscuously around. The Indi-
ans. about twelve in number, after killing
these travellers, attacked party of team
Bters who were corralled few miles
back, but ran away at the first fire.
Freighters coming in picked up the bod
les Of the men and woman, and brought
them 10 Crock city. -fn

Hon. GEO. L. CONVERSE responds most
efectually to the charges against him Of
Thomas F. Jones & Co., in which Mr.,
Converse is charged with having bought
up an interest in contract of plastering
the new Lunatic Asylum, and transfer
ring it to his son, who was the Co. of Gulick
& Co. The trouble seems to be that the
Legislature, of which Mr.. Converse was
a member, stepped in and prevented
Jones & Son from cheating subcontrac.
tors under them, among whom were Gu
lick & Co. The parties thus paid were
Day & Co., $7,516.63; Still & Co., $6,86S,
u; Gulick & Co., 100000; Clahane
$697.2S Wilson & Co., $4,1250O. No
complaint is made against Gulck & Co.,
that their plastering was not well done,
and done according to contract. Mr.,
Converse's statement of defence is forti-
fed and sustained by sworn statements
from Mr.. Gulick from John Graham,
civil engineer; from T. R, Tinsley, archi-
tect of the building, and other gentlemen.
There is evidently nothing In the charg-
es whatever. 1t is said Col. Baber, Of
Columbus, was the getter up of the circu.
lar against Converse; and if this is the
best our friend Baber can do, he might
as we'll give it up as bad job.

In the course of six months it will be
impossible to discover single man who
voted for the demonetization act of 1873.
This distinguished statesman who silent

with sweet and touching accent. The

of these gold bullioniss. The anti-silver

This shows upon what slender yet cor.

ALE was quiet at Montreal, on the 18th,
until about half.past o'clock, although
large crowds were gathered on the streets
around the church attended by the Or.
angemen, and in the neighborhood of
their hall. Atthe hour named, on pub.
lie square, two women were assaulted
while returning from church. One of
them, at least, was guilty of wearing an
orange lily on her bosom. The obnox-
ious flower acted upon the crowd as red
flag affects pull. Three men attempted
to protect the women from the rufianism
of the mob, but they quickly learned the
danger of the task they had assumed,
and were compelled to seek safety for
themselves in fight. Retreating into
-neighboring store, they were pursued,
and one Of them quickly laid out, dead,
with several bullet-holes in his head.
Three other persons, one of them wo-
man, we're severely wounded. A timely
shower of rain at this moment put
dampness upon the rising enthusiasm of
the mob, and prevented other murders.
The authorities, seeing the crowd melting
away under the rain, mustered courage
toorder out the voluteer militia, and there
being no more women with orange lilies
on the streets, the butchering was not re-
newed. The character of the brutal mob
was made sufficiently plain in the refusal
to pefmitA clergyman to soy apraysr for
the passing soul of its victim. 1t was
doubtless considered entirely superHuous
to pray for a person capable of protecting
a woman who bore an orange flower
about her person.

THE Secretary of War issues no order
to General Sheridan to pursue Sitting
Bull into Canada, the same as he has is
sued to General Ord to pursue marauderS
in Texas, into Mexico. Sitting Bull has
murdered hundreds of our people and
openly declares his purpose to raid the
plains as soon as he can get ready, giving
our Government far more right to de-
mand his extradition and if unsuccessful
to 60 over the border and take him than
the stealing of cattle on the Rio Grande,
gives it to invade Mexico. Is it because
Mexico is weak and .powerless to resist,
that our Government is so prompt and
