"ller hands are cold, her face is white;
No more her pulses come and 10,
Her eyes are shut to life and light,
Fod the Shite vssture, snow on snow,
And lay her where the yiole,s grow.
And for one who loved the sweet and
the sublime in nature, no resting plac,
could better bellt her.
"with gray old trees st mighty limb,
To wheel their circing shadows round,
And make the scorching sunlight dim
That drink the greenness from the ground,
And drop their dead leaves on her mound
For her, the morning choir shall sing
It's mathis from the branches high.
And every minstrel voice Of spring
That trils beneath the bending sky,
Shall greet her with its earliest cry"

The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1877-09-20

At the close of the war the public
debt was So 700, 900, OOO. 1t has
since that time been reduced to ST.
200, 900, 900, reduction of$500,0 00,-
600. During that time the receipts
Of the government from taxes and
revenues has been $4,000, 000, 900.
The law providing for the payment
of all the bonds in coin, and the act
demonetizing silver, virtually in
creased the debt Of the nation more
than $1,000, 000, 900 and correspond
ingly destroyed the means of the
people to pay. The contraction of
the currency already made and the
menace of the Resumption Act has
contracted values since the close OF
the war at least ten thousand mil,
lions of dollars. With this condi,
ton of affairs in the country, it is
not surprising that even the Repub.
licans should declare in their State
platform that tive view with alarm
the present disturbed condition O
the country"
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1877-09-20

1t is assumed and charged by the
so-called Republican party, that the
destruction of manufacturing and
other departments of labor is caused
by "overproduction." In other words
the nation has done too much. Now,
the real cause is, the people are una
BILE to buy the necessities of every
day life. The falling off of our i'm
ports shows that the people are not
able to buy as they did q few years
ago. 1t would be safe to estimate
the reduction of expenses of each
family per annum at 500, under the
pressure of hard times. There are
about eight hundred and fifty mil
lions offamilies in the United States.
This would make about eight hun
bred and fifty millions of decrease
in consumption as compared with
what our people would S in good
times. Yet, under Secretary Sher-
mans theory, we shall all be com
PEELED to reduce still more. The last
four cents of margin between gold
and paper means we shall be ground
to powder. 1t is like the tail end of
a subscription paper-hard to make.
Let is have plenty of money and we
will be all right, but if we are to
come to gold, God help the poor.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1877-09-20
Tuesday Afternoon,
OCTOBER 3D., 1877.
COME ALL!

For a third of a century every
candidate for Governor in Ohio,
from both parties, has been a lawyer
and politician. In no instance has
a nomination been extended to an in
dividual in any other walk of life
since 1874. Thirty-three years ago
Mordecai BARLEY, q merchant, was
nominated by the Wings that year
and elected. Since then there has
been no recognition of any other
trades and professions. Lawyers
and politicians, with some reputa-
ton as stump speakers, have been
selected without interruption to head
the ticket for Governor. The De-
mocracy this year have departed
from this custom and put forward a
gentleman engaged in commercial
pursuits, q well-known and success
full merchant-R. NJ. Bishop, of Gin,
cinnati. The people, we have no
doubt, will approve of the change,
and feel that in these days of bust
ness derangamen's and financial de-
preston, it is wise to put at the head
of the State a man of great business
capacity and tried experience, to
take charge of the domestic affairs
of the Statc.-PortSmouth Times.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1877-09-20

One of our most able and substan-
tial farmers who has always voted
the Republican ticket, said to us re-
Gently that he could not stand by a
party which had increased his taxes
as had been done since the Repub-
lican party had been in power. In
1910 his taxes on the same farm he
now ownes was $50; now it is over
$500! He said that high salaries,
fancy schools and a general steal
was the cause oft. Said he, ~ shall
vote for a change" This is the gen.
eral feeling. We would suggest to
our tax-ridden citizens to compare
their old and their late tax receipts
and the difference will be apparent.
Vote for a change,
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1877-09-20

The registry law of this State is
the entering wedge of the effort of
the money power to prevent the
poor man from freely casting his bal
lot. The rich move but seldom and
when they do they can spare the
time for Registration. Now the
poor man who moves is required to
spend his time, which is his capital,
in registering and proving his right
to vote. For the first time in any
law passed in Ohio the odious dis
%tinction of property qualification for
office is introduced into this bill.
Certain judges of election must not
only own property but be freeholders.
The next movement in this direction
would be to require property qualifi-
cation for voting, and it has already
been whispered that property should
have representation as well as peo-
pie.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1877-09-20

We view with alarm the present
disturbed condition Of the country"
Republican Platform.
The disturbed condition of the
country is the direct result of Repub-
iican management of public affairs.
The system of legislation for the
benefit of bondholders, has produced
a state of affairs that is indeed alarm
ing. Three million Of men are out
of employment; life and property
have been destroyed; business is
paralyzed; labor has been shorn Ct
its Just reward. And in face Of the
recent strike on railroads and in
mines, well may the Republican par
ty feel alarmed at the condition they
have by mal-administration brought
the country.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1877-09-20
The Republican Ring of this coun

The Republican Ring of this coun
ty have started their dull dozers''
on the raj path, and every poor
man heretofore voting with them.
and who has expressed a determi-
nation to vote for a change, is tackled
and an effort made to brow-beat him
out of his convictions. These chaps
should be "shot on the spot" and the
poor man who permits himself to be
influenced by their lying promises,
deserves no sympathy in his poverty
and distress. Men! Stick to yonl
determinations for a change. Tel
these fat salaried ofiice-holding sin.
ecures and the party to go to the dey,
il, you are poor enough. Don't be
fooled again.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1877-09-20

1t is very amusing to hear lead
ing Republicans talking to working
men, and promising to right the ma
ny wrongs Of which they so justly
complained, when these same lead
ers have for years been legislating
so that the rich man should be paid
in gold while the poor man should
take his pay for his earnings in de-
preciated paper. There never has
.been.a time, for the last fifteen years,
that the Republican leaders were
not the enemies of the poorer classes,
and yet they deceive a large number
of them into their support year after

COUNTY OFFICERS, SALARIES.
Here are the nice little sums that
our treasury eaters in Preble county
get out of the taxpayers each year:

Add to this the pay of Township
and municipal officers, about $4,000,
and we have the grand total of about
$4,000 per year! Is there a tax
payer in the county that will not say
that the salaries of our officers are
too high? This amount a easily
be reduced one half and just as good
men secured to discharge the duties
of the offices as the present incum-
bents. During the lifetime of B. f.
Larsh, Esq, We heard him frequent
~ declare that he would obligate
himself to fill the Auditor or Urea
surer's office for one-half of the pres
ent salaries, and there are men living
to-day who will do the same thing.
Is it not then, the duty of every tax
payer to vote to bring about this
change? Mr.. Edison, our candidate
for the Legislature, will vote to re-
duce the salaries of all public officers
to correspond with the present gen
eral reduction of prices Of labor and
the products of the country. Farm
ers and Laboring men, when you
come to vote in October, remember
your own interests and cast your bal
lots accordingly.

The two parties are now before tht

The two parties are now before the
people with their platform of princ:-
pies. The Democratic party de-
mands the repeal of the Resumption
Act, the Republican party are pledg-
ed to it. The people have been de
handing that contraction be stop
ped; they now have a chance OF hay
ing their demands acceded to, by
voting for the Democratic candi-
dates, thereby doing away with the
law fixing resumption January 1st,
1879, which law has been the means
of almost bankrupting the country,
and will bankrupt 1t if enforced.

When Uncle Benny HoMAN was
infrmary Director and partner in a
grocery with his son Vincent, the in
Urinary was run at about one half
the cost it is now. Grocery keepers
seem to have a pretty good record in
this matter. 1t was long after I'm
Gle Benny quit the grocery and COM
menced to fight modern extrava-
gance, that the party found he would
not salt their purposes. Scatter the
word that HILL keeps a grocery. 1t
will help.
