We notice that the Standard is particu-
Iarly acrimonious upon our Representative
in Congress. He is represented as capable
of almost any duplicity and assembling.
The obligations that we have been laid un-
der by his renewed and vigilant efforts on
behalf of Ashtabula and its commercial
prosperity, are treated as unworthy Of even
a passing acknowledgements is all moon
shine and pretensiOn. His strength as a
candidate, and his mastery way of trim
ming down the leaders of the Democracy,
and turning their tricks against them
is probably the head and front of his
offending, and the characteristics which
make him offensive to our Democratic
friends. We regret that the tactics of
our opponents are so much like the
old Phari>ees and Sadducees, who
could find no good thing coming out of
Nazareth. We have so much respect for
our Cincinnatus friend of the Standard,
that We should like him throw off some of
his narrowness and broaden his phylacto-
ries little-bursting the swaddling cere-
ments that eonfine his manhood and draWf
his generosity and magnanimity.

The N. Y. Times does not draw a
very fattering picture of Democratic
honesty, Notwithstanding the Demo-
cratic party is the party of reform
1t is generally supposed that the re-
form idea embraces common honesty,
and yet we are sometimes at 4 loss
about it. Sam TiIden was the great
head and front of reform. Indeed
he was the acknowledged head of
the reform party, and it is not easy
to believe that Sam ]. Tilden has an
honest hair in his head. At any rate
these 81 Democratic defaulters were
all Tilden men, and very naturally,
and perhaps very probably imbibed
their principles of honesty from the
great head of their party. 1t rather
looks as if the old boys example bad
been somewhat closely initiated by
his followers and admirers. Their
apt scholarship can scarcely be de-
MED. The Times says
There are forty-nine Democratic
counties in Ohio, and there have been
Democratic defaleations in twenty
one of them. The amounts stolen
vary from $4,000 to 42,545. In
one county the thieves destroyed
their books and accounts by burning
the Courthouse where they were
kept. And the loss of another conn
ty has not been accurately determin-
ed. But the robberies of nineteen
counties foot up more than $64O, 900.
In every instance, the thefts were
committed by Democratic office
holders, men who were Justify bawl-
ing 'reform!" while they have both
hands in the public Treasury. Cur
iously enough, the Democrats no
sooner secure control of a county in
Ohio than they begin to steal. They
steal as if conscious that their time
is short and that what is to be stolen
must be stolen in hurry.

On Monday afternoon lightning struck
maple tree in front of Goeppinger's saloon
on Prospect street. Mr.. Goeppinger stood
in the front door at the time. He said the
thing came down quicker than he could
think. making the dust and bark fly like
sin. After passing down the tree the fluid
divided, one portion going toward the
street, leaving track similar to that of a
rope drawn in the sand. After reaching
a point directly above where the gasPiPe
was laid, its course changed downward.

We are more than pleased to note the in
terest that the people of the Territory have
taken in politics the present season. There
seems to have been a general turnout to
both. the primaries, and the conventions OF
the several counties and a difligent effort
made to select good men, and greatly 70
their credit, they haven't a great measure
succeeded. Solar as WI know and are able
to Judge, the majority Of the men on the
several tickets are fair representatives OF the
intelligence and integrity of the country.
There are no doubt some who fall below the
standard, some whose nomination was not
dictated by the bestIinterest of the people,
but whose selection was the work OF person
al or party service Or trickery and chlcan-
ery. OF this the voter must be the judge.
We recognize that party is essential In gov
ermental affairs to induce a desire to excell
by the party which may be in power, but,
they are, often the means of electing lneffl-
gcient men, which. not unfrequently results
in calamity. We have no sympathy for,
or utilization with partisanism, and hold
that it is a duty that every man owes him.
self and his %neighbor to stand sufficiently
aloof from partisan ties to be able to select
the best men to conduct the public business,
irrespective of party. There is nothing
more dangerous to a commonwealth than
for it's people to tie themselves down to par
,.y leaders. 1t is not good Democrats or
good Republicans that we want for our Off
GERS. but good men. Let the intelligent vo-
ter demonstrate that he will not be driven
to the poles by the party lash and voted on
issues long since dead, but he will vote only
for the best men whether they be of his own
party or not and thus teach his leaders to
put up good men. The taxpayer whose dear
est interests is at stake can not afford to be
governed otherwise.
In Meagher county both teketsha ~ been

an intelligent people can be governed. |
is the duty of every voter to compare care
fully the merits of the candidates of the two
parties for their respective offices and choose
the one whose integrity, experience ant
business qualifications best fits him for thu
position to be filled. Partisan strife at
time like this when issues have ceased to ex
list is the .sheerest folly. Vote for the hes

SOME time ago we av;ulced the assertion
that navigation Oh the Upper Missouri
would eventually be found practicable. Re
ceiving no encouragement or notice by our
Territorial contemporaries, except an occa-
sional swear and punch by opr BENTON
brother. we decided to let lae subject
rest until the growing business OF the coun-
try would cause Il more serious thought up
on the subject. "A few years of discomforts,
worry and mental toll caused by the extraya-
CANT freight rates paid, and months of delay
,oecasioned by dragging heavy trains
through the bad lands of Choteau county,
;alave we are glad to say, awakened the
lneavy shippers to the subject, and every
mail brings encouraging prospects OF an
early e%onsumation of the project. The riv-
,er has been sounded, measured, and is be-
ing ~eulogized for Its practical advantages.
