The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1879-07-03

He was recently appointed to this
Office by a Democratic Judge to fill
a vacancy created by the resignation
of Winfield Freeman. With this en-
dorsement he should not only get
the Republican vote, but the support
of the Democracy as wen.-Register.
Thus speaks the Eaton Register
on the nomination of L. E. Freeman
for Prosecuting Attorney. The APP
pointment of Mr.. Freeman by a Dem
ocratic Judge to fill the vacancy
made by the resignation of Winfield
Freeman, was simply doing justice
to the expressed will of a majority
of the voters of Preble county, which
was, that a Republican should be
Prosecuting Attorney for the years
of 1878 and 70, instead of Demo
crat, and it will require considerable
stretch of Imagination to make it APP
pear as an Endorsement by the De-
mocracy of PEBBLE county of Mr..
Freeman, and equally as much cheek
to claim that bacause of this act OF
Justice to the will of the people, he
should receive the support of the
Democracy against their OWL candi
date. To be sure, Judge HUME
could have appointed q Democrat
but he had too much respect for the
will of the majority to pervert it
solely to serve his party, something
that but few Republicans would have
avoided with the same opportunity
presented to sticka Republican into
a public position that the people haf
voted to q Democrat. For q very
shining specimen of what we assert
we point to the fraud who occupies
the White House. No, no, Mr.. Viii
liams, that is too thin an election
eering dodge. The Democracy dom
Endorse Mr.. Freeman's nomination
although they may his appointment
because as we remarked before, j
was the voice of the people that
Republican should have the place
and because too they are proud 4
know that the members of that CRANE
old party have the honor and nerv
to respect that voice, rather thai
serve their party. "He who is faith
full to the will of the people, serve
his party best" is certain.

The bill passed,by our Legislature,
a few days since, reducing the COM
pensation of county officers, will
save to the taxpayers of Ohio at
least 5000, 900 annually The Dem
ocratic Legislature of1874 and 1875
passed a similar act, but the Repub
lican body which succeeded repeal
ed it,

Couldn't Longstreet and Mosby
be removed and their places given to
some oneIcggedo or one-armed Union
soldier3 It seems strange that these
bloody-handed rebels are kept in fat
positions under a Republican admin
istration.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1879-07-03

The Nationals met at Toledo on
the oath ult., and although they did
not exactly indorse Gen. EWING as
their candidate, they might just as
well have done so. Nineteen out Of
every twenty will vote for him. That
was the understanding when the
Convention adjourned.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1879-07-03

One hundred dollars a month with
out any investment is big wages
now. There are a half dozen good
and competent men in Preble county
who will take the Treasurer's office
for two terms at that price. Now
taxpayers what do you say9 Speak
out in this matter or don't complain
of high salaried officials.

The selection of Hon. FRANK Nc
KINNEY, of Piqua, Ohio, as Chairman
of the Democratic State Executive
Committee, is the right man in the
right place, and we are glad to see
that it gives such general satisfac-
tion. JOHN G.. THOMPSON remains
as Chairman of the Central commit,
Tee. With these two gentleman to
run the machine, Republicans who
asked for a 'red-hot campaign" will
be accommodated.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1879-07-03

The Okolona States and the "Con-
federate Brigadiers" have gone dead
with most of the Republican jour
mails, and they are now asickly look
ing lot of newspapers. The nomin
alton of EWING and RICE was a sad
blow to the news department of these
country aeeaklies.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1879-07-03

There r competent and good
men in Preble county who will take
the T~reasurer's office at $4,000, and
pay the balance back into the Coun-
ty fund. DO the tax payers want to
lessen their taxes? Now is the time
to speak out or stop grumbling.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1879-07-03

The Seitz Election Law was worry
ing the old Ring in this county, but
since it has been lifted up by the
tail and set aside, it won't make so
much difference. Still we would ad-
wise all Of them to be careful.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1879-07-03

Instead of the Colonel bowling
against the confederate Briga-

his "arithmetic powers" toward the
sable reformers" who are editing
the DEMOCRAT. Give US a "red- hot
campaign"
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1879-07-03

Republicans of Ohio would have
raised a million dollars, if that
amount could have secured a veto
for the Seitz Election Law. Like

nate quandry. I

The defeat of the Eaton Ring has
somewhat demoralized the organic

party in this county. The tail al

The defeat of the Eaton Ring and
the Seitz Election Law, will work a
revolution in politics in PEBBLE coun-
ty. Honest men will be permitted
to vote their sentiments, and EWING
will walk off with a majority.

Mr.. Hayes vetoed the bill that re-
fused to pay Marshal BURNERS to
bull-doze voters into the support of
the Republican party. 1t can now
easily be seen what MI. Hayes wants
done at the Presidential election.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1879-07-03

Tho passage of the Seitz Election
Law which prevents Republicans
from using money at elections, is
one reason why Republican journals
kick so wicked at the late Democrat
ic General Assembly.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1879-07-03

Mr.. HAYES rewarded all the scoun-
drels who stole enough electoral
votes to seat him in the Presidential
chair, yet in his vetoes he pirates
about preserving the "purity of the
ballot box~ The Devil ought to
come forth and preach against sin.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1879-07-03

The Republican party cannot get
along without marshals and super
visors of elections. MI. HAYES says
SO in his veto message. But MI.
Hayes is o fraud all the same.

While Foster was at home selling

Ewing and Rice were at the front,

The Bucyrus journal says that
Foster got his nomination BY the aid
of Federal officers and politicians.
1t further states that Taft was the
choice of two-thirds of the Republi-
cans of Ohio. The Journal is Re
publican and ought TO know.

We are sad for the defeat of the
old Ring In Eaton. 1t is the first
time in a good many years its slate
was so badly mashed. We feel en-
couraged now for a "red-hot cam
paign."

The New York Herald, in an cdi-
torial commenting upon the nomina-
tions made by the Ohio Democracy.
said that the nomination of Ewing
and Rice makes q tickle: that almost
assures Democratic success. 1t says
that the placing of Gen. Ewing at
the head of the ticket will bring to
its support thousands that no other
nomination could have done.

our Browns storo Letter.

Mn. EpITon :-'lIopor to whom honor is
due" Our efficient County Commissioner North
of Pacolet, Mr.. W. L. Goudelock, has done his
whole duty In the matter Of road duty, as the
good roads through this section nttest. 1t is
lust delightful after weeks hard toll for the
Church going people to drive to their places of
worship no broken vehicles, no frightened Ia
dies, notired and Worried horses Sunday,
are some of the consequences of q faithful
County Commissioner in community.
In former communication mention was made
of one of our schools in this vicinity. We tako
pleasure in the honorable mention of MIR. j. +.
Browns School, North of Taickety. This is the
third year Mr. Brown has had charge of the School
ut that place, and his popularity as teacher in
creases with the length of time he is among US,
While on this subject, il will be proper TO men,
ton the efforts Of our school Trustees in this
Township to build good school houses nnd judi
ciously locate the schools, rs to have Fewer Of
them Mt more eligible places, and continue them
longer than heretofore. This change will be 4
good one, as it will reduce the number of schools
and by the right location give all opportunity of
attending them for longer time, with tie same
expense TO the county. Heretofore we have had
| no school houses hence sometimes two schools
| have been very nearly together in one locality,
while in others they have had none. Thanks to
Mr. Jelferies for the idea-hopc it will be carried
| out.
| Our friend "Dick Dundas" is certainly fast
man in some things; but this is allowable in his
case, and in fact sort Of necessity for il is
