It is now in order for some Of our
bowling Radicals of the "God and
morality party" to turn the white of
their eyes to the keystone State,
where the average vote of 'Republi-
can statesmen sold down to $342 a
piece! But then the time of these
moral howiers is so extensively en-
gagged in the senseless yell of JEFF
Davis and "Confederate Brigadiers,"
that such little party corruption as
the above is not observed. Where
ever Republican men and measures
predominant, there you find corrup-
tion and rascality of the most shame
less kind.

The Philadelphia Press says;
"The editor of the Oklahoma Miss,
States, who so devoutly thanked God
that the Confederates had captured
the Capital, is accused of having
stolen from $4,000 to $4,000 of the
yellow fever funds sent from the
north, and to have spent it in gamb-
ling" And if that is true it furnish.
es an additional reason why the
Southern people should be extreme
ly cautious in their dealings with
strangers especially scalawags and
carpet baggers like this fellow from
Ohio, who is running the Okalona
States, for a consideration, as a
campaign document for bloody shirt
organs in the North.

Bishops Strength.
Lebanon Patriot.l

From all indications R. NJ. Bishop
will be the nominee of the"Democra-
cy of Ohio, as he should according
to the time-honored custom of the
Democratic party The universal
expression from every quarter is that
Bishop has made q good Governor.
Nothing can be said against his adj
ministration, though some dissatis-
faction is expressed at some of his
appointments. This, however, might
be expected. To day Gov. Bishop
is the leading man of tho several
prominent candidates, Rice, Ward
and Ewing.

We are in favor of the Ohio Leg
islature adjourning immediateiy-of
the nomination of UNCLE DICK for a
second term--but will support any
other man as cheerfully-belieye
that the Democrats and Nationals
ought to unite solidly-in favor of a
Greenback platform, and one broad

and bayonets at the polls. This is
our interview Mr.. Williams-put it

when out on your mission-don't

The Cleveland Leader says that
"General Dix, who voiced American
patriotism as to the respect due the
flag, lived long enough to see it once
more floating over all the land, and
he also lived long enough to see
scores of men in the National Con-
gress who would haul it down to-day
if they had a chance" And he lived
long enough to e the corrupt lead
ers of the Republican party rob the
people of hundreds of millions ofdol-
lars, build up a moneyed aristocra-
cy, surround the polls with bayonets
under the command of partizans,
steal the Presidency, and hear the
fraudulent President quoted as be-
ing in favor of stopping the wheels
of government sooner than a free
ballot should be restored to the peo-

repeaters and ballot-box suffers, and
whose business it was to intimidate
Democrats. and drive them away
from the polls with threats, and Of
ten with clubs? To preserve this
power is what the Republicans are
fighting the Democratic party.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1879-05-08

During the last campaign we heard
in this region a great howl about the
Southern Claims" and positive as
sertions made that if the Democrats
succeeded in securing a majority in
Congress, tie national treasury
would be depleted in the payment of
"rebel claims" The Democracy
have succeeded and what is the re-
suit? Gen. BRAeG, Of Wisconsin,
and a Democrat, made a motion to
abolish the Southern claims com
mission which was offered as an
amendmentto the civil appropriation
bill, and the mover, in the debate
which followed, declared his object
to be to stop the further payment OF
these fraudulent claims, Matched up
by this commission. Now for the
result. When a vote was reached
the Republicans of The house, led by
Gen. Garfield, voted to a man to con.
tinue the commission, while the
Democrats, with the exception of q
few from the border counties, were
in favor of the motion, and voted to
abolish the commission. Next DC.
tober the Eaton Register will howl
as usual about these "claims," and
charge that the Democrats have
robbed the treasury to pay millions
of dollars of them! On this subject
the Philadelphia Times has the fol
lowing:
The Republican organs raised q
great hue and cry q short time age
to the effect that the Democrats,
when they came into power in Con.
gress, would bankrupt the treasury
by the payment of Southern wal
claims. In the house, when Gen
Bragg proposed to abolish the whole
business of Southern claims, he was
supported by nearly the whole Dem.
%oeratic vote, but the Republicans
with the aid of border state Demo.
Gratis, defeated the proposition. We
shall be pleased to hear what the or
gans have to say upon this subject
now. The simple truth is that this
costly and dishonest system of wal
claims was created and has beer
maintained by the Republicans ii
Congress, to the great discredit O
the party, and while the Southern
Democrats are not the wisest men il
the world, they have had sense
enough to make their record in thi.
respect unassailable.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1879-05-08

Every once in a while we pick up
a Republican paper that says some
thing about the immense cost of the
extra session of Congress. The ed
itors thereof are either a set of stu
pid asses or hardened lials. The
extra session is costing the country
nothing, because members of Con-
gress are drawing no more pay than
if it was not held. Their salaries
are $4,000 per year, and it makes no
difference whether they are at home
or in Washington city dispensing
chin music.

At Springfield Illinois, the home
of LINCOLN, the Republicans elected
a man for Mayor who had served in
the Confederate army through the
war. 1.-THE Democrats had commit

don't, their stupidity is really to be

Poor Bait.
Democratic Northwest. |

About the weakest argument we
have heard put forward against the
denomination of Gov. Bishops, that
all the Republicans want to see him
re-nominated. Democrats should
not allow themselves to be caught
with such bait. The Republicans
fear Bishop, knowing him to be pop
ular among the masses, and they
merely raise the cry with a hope of
turning the tide against him.

We hope our readers will excuse
us for expressing pity for tie above
wretched ass. He reminds us of an
old onion, the more you peel it the
louder it stinks. In the promiscu-
Gus use of pen and paper, the idiot
has mistaken his calling. and like
the bull in the china-shop, breaks
things promiscuously. Old dogs hay
ing the mango should be shot. Now,
whether this fellow has tie mango,
the itch, the sian tods," the scuryey,
or is an escaped %lunatic, we know
not, but he acts like a beast who was
afflicted with ore or all these diseas-
es. We advise the Board of Health
of Camden to have him examined,
but while doing so should be care
full, for should he turn his neither
end upon them, as is his habit, he
might emit upon them a fetid liquid
that the waters of Jordan would fail
to wash out. He is a terrible fellow,
he is a fighter, and has no regard for
the amount of blood, muscle, hair,
&C., he sacrifices for his opinions!
He has already shed barrels-and
amt half exhausted yet! tits fright
full! We shake all over at the bare
mention of his bravery! To have
such a lunatic in u county with
press and paper at his command, is
a sever calamity-a worse Attic
tion than any of the plaguessof Egypt
or the sever year itch! Of course
our fellow-citizens of Camden will
not consider that We are casting
any reflections upon them in MOTTO
ing the e~xcressence who has planted
himself among them. They are to
be pitied, and we doubt not are anx-
ious to get rid of the nuisance before
the heated term opens.

The Okalona Miss. States has a
large and growing circulation among
the implacable asses at the North.
Its bona fde subscription list among
Southern men, we venture to say,
does not exceed $50 copies. 1t is
printed for circulation among idiots,
and in that respect may be said to
be filling a "a long felt" want,-Ak-
lanta Ga Constitution.
The above shows how the paper
published by the Ohio lunatic stands
down South. The Republican asses
of the north take great stock in it
and quote from it extensively. Re-
publican patronage and money sus
tains and keeps it up. 1t is intend
ed to supply the vacancy should JEFF
Davis die. There are hundreds of
men in the Republican organization
held there by just such "damphoole
ry," and We blush to admit that
Preble county furnishes her quota.
There are no lunatic Asylums in
Mississippi, which accounts for the
fellow>being at large, and is the rea-
son why the Republicans ofthe north
sent him there to furnish them cam
paign clap-trap. Quotations from
this idiots paper and the howl OF
"Jef Davis" are the only arguments
presented in Republican journals
why the taxpayers of this country
should vote to continue a party in
power that has plundered and rob.
bed them into bankruptcy and stole
the Presidency. Look at your own
county organ of the Republican par

state an undeniable truth.

, The conflict between the parties
in Congress, on political sides to the

eloquence wasted on it, in the face of
the known fact that precisely the
same thing has been done by the Re-
publicans themselves. As President

Republican organs in the north
are making preparations to club with
the lunatic who publishes the Okolo-

A few years ago it was the Pope
who intended to swallow up the
whole of Preble county a short time
before the election, and now it is

adiers." How easily the average Re-
publican is humbugged.

1t is not probable that the coun
try will be deceived by the beating
of the Republican tom-tom. Through
a gradual change in the national
sentiment the political character of
the two Houses has been revolution
lied. But, behold! No sooner does
the Democratic majority 60 about re-
pealing the partisan legislation set
up by their predecessors than the
Republican managers start the hol-
low-hearted cry of revolution" The
truth seems to be that they have
been SO long in authority that any
attack upon their supremacy has
come to be regarded as an attempt
upon the life of the Government it
self, and a deliberate effort to under
mine the prosperity Of the nation.

If the editor of the Eaton Register
is particularly distressed to know
how the Democrats stand in this To-
