SOME of our Democratic neighbors
have been very happy for few days, in
the hope that the Republican party was
about to disrupt and antsgonize the ad-
ministration of President Hayes on his
Southern policy. Those of them who
read, now know that nothing ofthe kind
is likely to occur, as the policy of Hayes
does not mean, any more than Grants
meant, nosurrender of Republican princi'
pies or any disregard of the just interests
of Southern Republicans.-AHiance Re
yieW.
The Republican sensorium of the ALI
ance Postmaster is probably clear in the
premises. 1t is probably only Sher'
man-Hayes game. We remember in
1868, our ex-senator, now al the head OF
the U. s. Treasury, wrote a letter that
800 bonds were payable in greenbacks,
and so understood by bondholders and
all others. A few months after he was
active in getting the bill passed to pay
them in gold

OUR Republican friends in Canton fir
ed no guns over Returning Board Hayes,
Wonder if Mayor Braden and Marshal
Webb advised this course lest they should
hurt their prospects for getting Demo-
cratic votes on the first Monday in April.
We shave little doubt that both ofthese rad
ical gentlemen would suffer their fright
arms 10 be cut off before they aOouId uote for a
Democrat or a rebel 8ympathizer."
Messrs. Braden and Webb have no
claims whatever on any Democrat. They
endorse the Presidential steal, and Dem
ocrats should have self respect enough to
vote against the fraud and all who ap-
prove it. Besides, our candidates will
be worthy and capable gentlemen, enti-
tied to our cordial support

THE DUTY OF DEMOCRATS.

The Cincinnati Enquirer, at the close
of an able article reviewing the enormity
of the Radical perjury and bare-faCed
robbery that defrauded Tilden out of tie
high Office to which he had been lawful
ly chosen, says;
"What is the next duty of tie Demo-
Gratis of Ohio? 1t is revenge. Revenge,
not upon the men ofour own party, who
were deceived, cheated, misled by Re-
publicans who assumed for brief hour
a virtue they had not; but revenge upon
the entire Republican party, from its
head to its foot. Wipe it out. Slaugh-
ter its candidates at the ballot boxes from
the highest to the lowest. Teach it and
the world that there is such a thing as
retributive justice in politics, and that
the American people are capable of en-
forcing it. Punish the robbers and the
partakers of the stolen goods. And in
this meritorious work we ask that the
Democracy Of Ohio, true to their noble,
honorable record, will take the Lead
This is our next duty. Let the honest
voters remember this two weeks hence
and indeed, now and evermore."

POSTMASTER General Key, of the Con-
federate department, advertises for pro-
posals from Democrats who are willing
to turn Radical and accept Southern post
offices. He says;
Preference will be given to a Repub-
lican all other things being equal; but
should it be impossible to find Repub.
lican who will be satisfactory, then 1
shall not hesitate to select a person who,
in my judgment, will give satisfaction to
the business interests of community"
1t must be rather a nasty dish of crow
for Radicals, this Confederate Colonel,
who declared six weeks ago in the Fed
eral Senate, his belief that Hayes was
fraudulent pretender, and Tilden the
honestly elected President, sitting in
Judgment in their party orthodoxy
Pittsburgh Post.
Why not submit the Postmaster ques-
ton to a vote of the people interested
both North and South? This would be
satisfactory"

CHEEK.-It must take deal of cheek
and meanness for Republican to claim
bet off Democrat on the Presidential
election. We hear of some, however,
that mean, and so insensible to shame as
to seriously make the demand. Canada
Bill at three card monte is a gentleman
compared to such Hayes-fraud speci-
men. We trust no Democrat will be soft
enough to let his pockets be picked in
this way. If their leading scoundrels,
such as Wells, Bradley & Co., have sue
ceeded, by perjury and fraud, in steal
ing the Presidency, let Democrats take
care that the rank and file endorsers Of
the fraud do not prCit thereby, at DEM
ocratic expense. We always dissuade
onr friends from betting, and the lesson
Just taught orght to satisfy all Demo.
Gratis never to bet on election results
What nonsense to bet with frauds and
cheats VIXEN your opponents stock the
cards and can and will count themselves
high, low, Jack, and the game. We again
admonish our friends to hold their mon
ey. The Hayes party "hold the fort" by
fraud, and that is enough infamy with
out letting them pick individual Demo-
cratic pockets.

BLAINES ORGAN ON HA YES.

WASHINGTON, March ID.
There is considerable talk here ovel
the arrival of the Bangor Wing, the rec.
ognized Maine organ of Mr.. Blaine, with
an article on the Hayes Cabinet, in which
there is bitter attack on the new Ad-
ministration. The article appears to have
been written before it was known that
the Senate faction would not prevail
against the president"
"We are utterly disappointed" says
the Wing, 'in the hope that the rumors
would prove to have been unjust to Pres
ident Hayes, and that he would be too
sagacious to be influenced by political
visionaries, and too conscientious to ig-
more obligations to the great party which
did battle for him, and elected him as
the representative of its principles. y
Then it goes on to lament the "Presi-
dents" fatuity in believing he can build
up personal party. 1t is especially Sc
we're on Schurz and Key, but it has no
compliments for any of the appointees
except Mr.. Sherman, and it sadly notes
the fact that the seven men represent
four Democratic and only three ReDub-
lican States. 1t closes as follows: 1--WE
have called it the Hayes cabinet, because
it is obviously not cabinet representa-
tive of the great Republican party. What
the result of this remarkable action will
be remains to be SEEN"

TIE st. Louis Republican makes a
summary of the "crimes" of the Demo-
cratic House in the Forty-fourth Con-
gress which is highly Aattering. 1t says:
They tried to reduce the Presidents
salary to S25, 900; they passed Fields bill
providing for new Presidential election;
they tried to reduce the army from $4,000
to 1900 men; they insi ted that the
army should not be used in overturning
State Governments. Democrats are moi
likely to be dismayed nor the country
displeased at this arrangement. On the
contrary, the people will most probably
welcome repetition of such crimes. II
the other branch of Congress can only
be induced to sin in the same way, ev.
4erything will be lovely.

THINK of it. A Democratic House oi
Congress on last saturday a week resolv
ed, by strict party vote that Tilden and
Hendricks were elected President and
Vice President of the United States 1t
was equivalent to resolution adopted al
some corn.husking-nothing more
Carroll Free Press
No matter about the "husking;" the
question is whether the resolution did
not tell the truth. Up this way Repub-
licans do not deny that Tilden and Hen
bricks were elected, but joyously claim
that Hayes was counted in.

THE Canton Democrat thus seriously
changes the meaning of a part of Hayes's
inaugural in printing it,!
The sweeping revolution Of the entire
labor system of large portion of our
country, and the advance of four million
people from condition of servitude to
that of citizenship, upon an equal footing
with their former masters, could not oc-
cur without presenting problems of the
grayest moment to be dealt with by the
emancipated race, by theil former mas
ters, and by Gen. Grant, the author of the
Emancipation Act. That this was not a
just and providential act, fraught with
good for all concerned, is now generally
conceded throughout the country.
When General Government" is read
for General Grant," and the mot" is
omitted, which was not in the copy, the
distinction becomes very marked.-Ak.

ments as more Hayes-y. 1t is so easy to
