UNJUST LEGISLATION.

To the turner's of CoW: When we look
towards our capitol, we see stress throw
ed upon the string of self Interest, more
than for the interests and future welfare of
the laboring class and country at large We,
the farmers and laborers are seventh-tenths
of the voting population Of our county, and
is it possible that we will abide by what
they say and do. They are striving for
money, and the consequence OF their action
falls on our shoulders. They are meddling
now with the laboring printer who labors
for his bread as we do, and they desire to
get his nose to the grind stone, and weirce
lv pay them to cavil over who shall turn it,
They whoop to the dogs and tell them to
90 free, sheep is good and cheap, and alb
surd as il is some Of them want II law max
ing it "a penal oftense to poison them, and n
bill has been introduced TO punish persons
poisoning domestic animals which inl1Ndes
the dogs. They can roam over our sheep
pastures and rob our hen nests and we
dare not resort to strichnine for defence, if
we do, we must be prosecuted for it, The
trap is trying to be set to catch us, and roll
IA fee into some ones pocket who is for self,
more than for us.
We want men who will legislate for the
interests of the people, who support the
government. We want men that will rule
and direct, study and plan, for the good of
the people, the same as they do for their
own families. We want men that will
stand by us, shield and protect us and give
lis laws that are just and right for all men.
How will we get them?
