The late Legislature has made

lating thereto. Persons disposed to
bet hereafter, will have to be very
careful:

any pools, on the result of any cleo
ton held under the laws of this state,
or upon the election of any person to
any office, post, OF situation, which
by the constitution or laws of this

not more than five hundred nor less
than five dollars, or be imprisoned in
the Jail of the county not less than
ten days, or more than six months,
at the discretion of the court, and
whenever the amount put at hazard
is between said sums, the fine shall
equal the amount so hazzarded. Pros.

After Representative O'Conner
had helped in the reorganization of
the penal and reformatory institu-
tions of the State, to furnish places
for Democratic beats and office hunt
ers, he was kicked out and his seat
declared vacant.-EGton Register.
That is a lie. JOHN O'CoNNER did
not cast a single vote upon any meas
ure of a political character, that it
was required to pass it. After the
Democrats have kicked this fraud
and cheat out of their party, the
Register is undertaking to create a
sympathy for him by such unblush-
ing falsehoods. We should think its
editor ought to be satisfied in his 81
lence of the scoundrelism and rob-
berry ofthe Presidency, and pass over
the O'CoNNER matter.

There is coming to be an uneasy
feeling all over the country in regard
to the movements of the Commun-
istic element. There are reports that
the organization has in New Eng
land, and the Northern, Middle and
Western States $50, 900 men organ
lied into regiments, brigades and
divisions, and that they intend to
rev%olutionize our whole system OF
political economy, by force if neces-
sary. No doubt the reports are great
ly exaggerated, and it is clear that
the leaders in the movement are q
few bad-disposed foreigners. That
such persons are laboring hard to ar.
ray certain classes against the gen.
eral structure of society admits of nc
question. While it is not likely thai
the Communistic idea has.taken any
deep root in American thought, the
railroad riots of last summer are ar
evidence of what a few evil disposed
persons can effect, and the civil au
thorities of the country should bt

John Sherman is perhaps better
entitled to his seat in the Cabinet
than any other member Of the Hayes
family. He earned his wages by
cheating the man who was elected
out of the Presidency, and made his
present position a condition of his
participation in that grand highway
robbery. He is thus enabled to send
a check for five thousand dollars to
his neice when married to Don Cam
eron. He don't fool his money away
on silver dishes-he goes in for the

The resolutions of the Republican

Convention and pleading with the
voters irrespective of party" to
come and help it! 1t has abused the
confidence of the people, plundered
the country, robbed and oppressed

such a corrupt organization, whose

relief to the over-taxed and bank.

know it. They demand something

When Democrats appoint an ex-

to do it is rascally and an outrage
upon the people! When Democrats
get into power and call to their aid
those of their friends, tits malignant
party spirit, but when Republicans
turn out Democrats and put in their
party supporters, it is all lovely and
the "goose hangs high" When a
corrupt Democrat is investigated and
kicked cut of place, it is proof that
the whole party is a set of scoun-

one fact. The Administration has a
mortal hatred Of Grants friends.
Collector WEITzEL has a record which

be at Washington, but he was one
of GRANTS pets. Under GRANT the
whisky rings fourished. The whis-
ky rings are a power, and there
must be a change. GRANT looms up
for 1880. and new rings must be
formed that will favor HAYES and his
adherents. Developments are being
made in Cincinnati, which show start
ling crookedness under WEITzEL's
nose. Collector Williams was one o.
Grants pets. The history of his
appointment proves this. The ole
Harries ring once encircled a par
of this District. Has it ever beer
broken up? An attack upon Gen
GRANT is like shaking a red rag be
