THB SAME OLD HYPOCRISY.
From the st. Joseph Gazette

From the st. Joseph Gazette.l
The homeguard heroes who COM
pose the rank aud file of the republic
can party in Ohio have reached the
climax Of the ridiculous ia the accep-
lance of a campaign song, in which
the poet a loftily, thus: ,
''Unlted, bold and firm we stand,
As Lincoln and his army stood;
And as he threshed the rebel band,
So we will thresh the Bourbon brood.
lChOrusl Hurrah for Foster. etc.
When we reflect that the s'brood"
which these shouters propose to
"thresh' is General Ewing and gen.
eral Rice, the gallant soldiers of the
army that "stood united, firm and
bold" in the protection of the Hon.
Charles Foster, who was at that time
selling calico and sugar at war prices,
the situation becomes decidedly ill.,
teresting.

RADICAL MALICE.

[From the Bates County Democrat.l
Maj. Mckinney, Que of the board
of immigration of Missouri, has been
travelling in New York. He found
many who would like to remove TO
this state but were actually afraid.
They believe that Missouri is supe-
rior to Kansas or Texas but they
have heard sc many stories about
violence, revolvers and shotguns that
they consider neither person nor
property safe here. Republican pap
ers have 30 persistently lied about
this state that many actually believe
unreasonable accounts. A narration
concerning some imaginary, terrible
occurrence only provokes a laugh in
Missouri, but in New York, or even
as far west as Illinois, it makes the
reader shudder with horror. Repub-
lican lies have succeeded in frighten-
ing away northern immigration, but
it would be interesting to know who
has been benefited.

MIR. HAYES DILEMMA.

q From the st. Joseph (Mo.l Gazette.
MI. Hayes gets in a word through
the associated press this morning, de-
n%ouncing the lamentable state of po-
litical affairs in the south. Mr.. Hayes
should go slow. 1t there is anything
like a bulldozing political spirit ex-
listing now in the south it is the
progeny of the disgraceful fraud by
which he obtained the presidency.
He is the last man in the world who
ought to open his head on the subject
of unfairness in politics.

FOB ATTORNEY GENERAL.

From the Warrensburg Journal Democrat.l
Many of our exchanges speak in
f~attering terms of the prospective
candidacy Of Hon. T. p. Bashaw, Of
Monroe county, for the Office of at
torney-general. We do not hesitate
to say that he possesses, in a pre-
eminent degree, the qualifications
requisite to q faithful and honorable
of the duties of this impor-
tant Office. The judge has hundreds
of warm friends in the state, who
would enthusiastically rally to his
support. We cannot afford to allow
such men to. remain in the back

GOV. Foster ON the Result.

At the grand Republican Jubilee
held in Fostoria, the residence Of
Gov. Foster, he made a speech, and
gave his views Of the causes Of The
Republican victory, as follows:
I say here tonight that the ag
yressions of the ''Solid South" at
the late extra session Of Congress
had more to do with sOlidifying the
Republican party and making it the
great, united and successful power it
has shown itself to be, than all other
causes combined.
The Democracy and the Solid
South can take notice thqt the great
'reedrm-Ioving and fair-dealing pPO-
pie of the North viii be united and
solid until they are perfectly assured
chat every man in the land, however
tumble, in every State and town
ship and precincts permitted to
exercise the right Of a free man fully
lndunmOlested.
Let us not belittle the victory
It was not a Grant hOom, nor a Sher-
nan boom, nor a Blaine boom, nor
INV mans boom; it was the boom of
the egreat Republican party, determin-
I'd to stamp out the esOft money heresies
# the Democratic party, and to re-
buke the aggressive insOlence Of the
Solid South. It has settled these
u1estions not only for Ohio, but for
I I'll the Northern States. It secures
Republican success with any candi
late they may select in 1880 It re-
stores the control of the country to
the hands that saved it, in its hour
# peril. It's effect is to break up
he Solid South.
It will give that element South,
hat are really desirOus Of accepting
he constitutional amendments in
heir full force and vigor, an Op-
oortunity to make themselves felt as
political power.
I predict that our Southern friends
n Congress the coming session VIII
.nnduct themselves much less Otsn
ivalv than at the extra session.
We will not hear any more Of the
-breat to tear from the statute books
! all war Legislation, nor will there be
NV further attempts at glOrifying
Jeff. D9vis.
Mr.. Foster closed his speech by
saying:
"N5w, my dear friends, let me
congratulate you on the great re
suit of Tuesdays election, and con
7aquent election Of q Republican
/ President in 1880.

ComnIetion of a Great Work.

An epoch in the experience Of many low
ers Of good books will be marked by the
completion Of the new Acme edition Of
Chambers Encyclopedias of English Lit
erature. The announcement Of a work Of
such superior excellence, in form
and style so convenient and becoming,
at prices so nominal, was more than a SUR
prise to the reading public, and many
questioned the possibility of Its publica-
tion, except at a great loss of money.
The publishers evidently knew their
ground. They have not only fulfilled their
promise to the public, but by accomplishing
a work so extraordinary, have attracted
the attention Of alnost the entire reading
community, to their various literary en-
terpri-es, and have secured a sale beyond
precedent in the history Of bO0kselling.
Il Is peculiarly a work worthy Of unI-
versal circulation. II is not only a Collec-
rion of rare literary interest, beauty, and
merit, but a concentration Of the best pro-
duo. ions Of English and American intel
lect, from earliest to recent times. but is
also, in a large degree, a key and index to
all other good books in the language, en-
abling one to see and judge Tor himself
which are best worth his reading.
Now that the work is completed, the
publishers limit the number of styles in
which it is made to those which have
proved the mGsC popular, as fOllOWs: 4
vols. lover 8, eco pages, cloth, $500; Tols.B
hall morocco, $500; 4 vols, hall Russia
gilt top, printed on finer and heavier paper,
with wide margin, S4O0. By mail, post
age extra, 40 cents. American Book EE-
change, 55 Beekman st., New York, pub
fishers.
A Library Of Universal knowledge, in
20 vols, nearly 10000 pages, handsomely
bound, and all for $1,000 with special in
ducements besides to early subscribers, is
announced by the same publishers. IL
will be similar in character to the Cyclic
pedia Of Appleton or johnson, only more
exclusive, though but fraction Of their
cost.
Other recent publications Of this house
are, Rollins Ancient History, 1925; JO-

WHOLE NO. 2208

Some Of the Democratic aruraI
.roOsters are pitching into the into
the Cincinnati Enquirer, charging
that paper with being largely re-
sponsible for the defeat Of the party
in the late canvass. The Chilicotba
Advertiser, Butler County Democrat
and Waverly Waterman, Gray,
Blanche and Sweetheart, Join in
the cry. The Butler Co. Democrat
says:
"The Enquirer is the most reck-
less political hereto in seventeen
States, and the sooner the Demo
cratic party repUdiates the doctrines
1t persists n preaching the sooner it
will prosper as an organization"
And thus the Waverly Watchman.
ave have always believed that
Iilden would have carried Ohio,
easily, had it not been for the En-
quirer, and we know that it is main
ly due to the course Of the Enquirer
that the Democracy have been placed
so hopelessly in the minority in
Hamilton county. The fact Of the
business is, the Enquirer cares more
for the success Of the Enquirer
than it does for the success Of the
Democracy.

The Ohio correspondent Of the N.
Y. Graphic thinks, and so do We,
that one cause Of the great RepubT-
can victory was,
4. The tremendous personal cam
paign which Foster made. He visit
ed every county in the State and
made over one hundred and twenty
speeches, and also did an immense
amount Of buttOnhOling in doubtful
localities.
There are few men who have the
physical endurance to go through
such an arduous campaign and come
out with health unimpaired. It was
fortunate thing for the Republicans
that Foster was nominated instead
of Judge Taft, who is too old to have
made @ vigorous canvass.
