Stop Your Lying.

The New Lexington Herald says:
Will the soldiers of Perry county who have
them them by by the bill for the arrears OF pensions,
vote against General Rice, who is the champion
"No!" The brave and gallant soldier is always
grateful, and the three-legged ticket VIII get
the benefit of that gratitude at the polls on the
second Tuesday of October
When Allen O. Myers was here the
first time, he made the same assertion.
Mr.. Paine got up and corrected him.
Myers snorted and cavorted around,
and told Mr.. Paine he was wrong.
We have the Congressional Record,
the official proceedings of Congress,
and we have examined it carefully.
The bill introduced by Gen. Rice had,
for its main object, the putting OF
rebels upon the pension rolls. The
very title of the bill shows that, 1t
occurs in several places. For instance,
turn to page 1888, Vol. Z, part 2, Con-
gressional Record, Feb. 81, 1878, and
you will find this:
Mr. RICE. of Ohio. 1 desire to make a par
The sPEAKER. The gentleman will state it.
Mr.. RICE, of Ohio. The special order for to-
day after the morning hour is the bill (H. R.
No. 325S) to regulate the granting of pensions
on account OF death, or wounds or injuries re-
ceived or diseases contracted In the service OF
the United States since the 4th day OF March,
1861, and for the payment of arrears of pensions;
also to authorize the Secretary of the Interior
to restore to the roll of invalid pensioners the
names stricken therefrom on account of disloy-
atty, and to repeal sections 47O9, 4l6, and 4IlI OF
| the Revised Statutes of the United States.
Gen. Rice did, indeed, work hard for
that bill. The sections which this
bill sought to repeal, prohibit the
payment of pensions torebels. Rice S
bill never passed. The bill which did
pass, was introduced by Henry |. B.
Cummings, a Republican member
from Iowa. 1t left the rebels out.
When Gen. Rice was here last week,
like an honest man, he said he was
not the author Of the pension bill
which passed, and is now law, but
that Mr.. Cummings was its author.
Mr.. Myers is advertised to speak
here on Monday night, Oct. 13. He
made his assertion publicly here, that
Mr.. Paine was wrong, and his Demo-
cratic crowd applauded. The Con-
gressional Record and Gen. Rice say
Paine was right, and Myers wrong.
We'send Mr.. Myers a copy of the
Standard, with the article marked, and
ask him to attend to it on the 18th.

Paine on Economy.

In Mr.. Paine's open letter to Allen
O. Myers, which we published two
weeks ago, he spoke of his various
votes while in the Legislature, to cut
down expenses, and to economize, and
save money to the taxpayers. One
matter he omitted to mention. We
did not admire that vote very much,
and the first time we saw him after
he so voted, we gave him down
setting" for it. This vote was III ia
vor of bill to cut down printers fees
one-half. Of course that vote was all
wrong from our stand point, but as
the taxpayer would see it, Mr.. Paine
will hardly lose votes on that account.
The fact is, Mr. Paine is in favor of
cutting down all expenses to CORES
pond with the shrinkage of values,
caused by resumption. He is right in
this, as war prices imitation prices,
are now thing of the past.

COUD'S Show,

This show, which exhibited at this
place last Wednesday, is the best show
that has been here for some years.
Part of it had been here before. We
recognized the trained horses, trained
dogs, and other parts Of it. The
agents are thorough gentlemen. Mr..
Harry Evarts called soon in the morn
ing and paid us our bill for advertis-
ing. This is much more pleasant
than to have to wait around the ticket
wagon for settlement, as is the usual
custom.
The morning Of the show threaten
ed rain, but the attendance was large,
and the tent was well filled, both day
and night.

Foster is Coming.

Yes, Foster Citizen Foster-Y ard
stick Foster-Calico Charlie. is COM
ing. Let every man, woman and
child, who can possibly get here, come
to Jackson next Monday, and see and
hear this wonderful man. Let every
Republican come. Let the Demo-
Gratis, who passed and approved the
resolutions which we keep standing
at the head of our editorial columns,
come. These resolutions were passed
by the Democrats of this county in
the darkest days of the war, and de-
clared that the Democracy were then
utterly opposed to putting down the
rebellion. They say Foster did not go
and fight the rebel Democrats, in
whose favor our Jackson county De-
mocracy were then resolving. They
should love "Citizen Foster for this.
Come and hear him.

The Comfy Fair.

Our county Fair on last Thursday
and Friday may be considered a sue
cess in many ways. The weather was
beautiful. The stock was fine, for
this county, and the display in the
hall was the best we have seen for
some years. Grain, fruit, and scores
of other articles, would compare with
those of any county in this part Of
the State. The attendance was not
large, but it was fair, and of the better
class of people. There were no side
shows, swings, or gambling apparatus,
but it was a fair, and nothing else.
The award of premiums, and the
financial statement, could not be got
ready for publication this week.

The Pension Bill.

The main object of the bill intro
duced by Gen. Rice, seems to have
been to grant pensions to rebels. We
notice this billin another place Here
is one Of its provisions, which is re-
ferred to in the title Of the bill:
hereby, authorized and required to restore to
the pension roll the names of all invalid pen
Sioners now living who were stricken there
from on account of diSloyalty," excluding only
persons who had not had their political disa-
bilities removed until after such removal; the
pension to commence "from December 25, 1868,
at the rate which they would have been enti-
tied to had they not been dropped from the
pension roll"
Here is one Of the sections Of the
law which the Rice bill proposed to
repeal:
No money on account of pension shall be
paid to any person, or to the widow, children
or heirs of any deceased person, who in any
manner voluntarily engaged in or aided or
abetted the late rebellion against the authority
of the United States.
That would have let the rebels right
in, and that appears to have been
what Gen. Rice most earnestly desired.
The Cummings bill, which is the
one that became law, left the rebels
out. Cummings is Republican, and
Rice is a Democrat.

We are ready to grant that personal
matters, when not affecting the char
acter Of a canidated should not be
brought into politics. But, since the
Herald has entirely misrepresented the
case of Judge Kishler VS. Thomas Ew-
inc under the head Of "A Republican
Lie Nailed and at the same time cast
the aspersion of untruthfulness upon
the Republican politicians and press
Of this county" we deem it but justice
to ourselves to make a plain unvar-
nished statement of the real facts in
the case.
On the 18th day of October, 1874
Judge Kishler loaned Thomas Ewing
81, ,642.00, at s per cent. interest, pay
able in five years taking EWing's note
for the same. The interest was to be
paid semi-annualiy in advance. For
security Ewing gave Mr.. Kishler a
mortgage on 165 acres of land in Hook
ing county. One on 40 acres of land
in Coal township in this county, and
also an unimportant interest in the
Carbon Hill lands. The defeasance
clause In the mortgage provided that
Ewing should keep these premises free
from taxes, that the interest should be
paid due, and in default Of these con-
ditions the time should lapse and suit
might be brought on the note. Ewing
took the money and gave his note for
the 1st payment of the interest since
which time he has occasionally paid
Mr.. Kishler small sums of money but
at no time has he paid any part Of the
principal. Neither has he paid the
interest as stipulated there being 81
453 due Mr.. kishler on the 21st Of
last August. the whole amount due
being S14,105.
But further, Ewing failed to pay the
taxes on these mortgaged premises,
and three years ago they were sold
by order of the court. Now Mr.. Kish-
Ter has entered suit to set aside the
tax titles and recover the property,
but it is learned that Ewing had sold
to other parties the undivided half of
all these lands previously. Had this
not been done, Mr. Kishler might
have realized two or three thousand
dollars on his securities, but as it is he
may not get more than fifteen hundred.
The Herald insinuates Ewing intends
to pay this debt. VIII the Herald
man give $4,000 for this paper amount
inc to over $4,000? Mr.. Kishler
says the paper can be bought for

District Court.

Judges Trip, Knowles, Wright
and Harper, held District Court four
or five days last week. The case Of
H. G. Lasley VS.. Judge Welch, Mr.
Yeoman and others, took up most of
the time. 1t was a suit about some
mineral lands near Wellston. The
case was decided in favor Of Mr.. Las
ley.
Martin Vanpelt Esq, and Ex-Sen-
ator Shepherd, of Hillsborough, came
to Court, and Mr. Vanpelt was admit

of locating at this place, to practice

When the Democrats got major
ity in the Ohio Legislature they ap-
pointed a committee to investigate,
and see what the Republican officials
had been doing, and the committee, by
Mr.. Ball, their chairman, made re-
port, in which the following may be
found:
Your committee take pleasure in reporting
that, SO far as elective officers and their snbor-
esty and fidelity have been observed and that
in the official conduct of public officer,
whether elective or appointive, has corruption
been disclosed.

Convention held in Columbus June
4th last, full State ticket was placed
in nomination, headed by Gen. A. S.

propose to vote for Ewing and Rice.
Now as you are the nominee Of the
Nationals of Jackson county for Rep
resentative, I ask you to make apublic
affirmation OF denial Of the above re-
port. For my own part [ will not
vote for any candidate on our State Or

in trying to play the military dodge.
We may talk as much as we please
about military glory and soldier can

are Vallandigham Democrats, after
all. And they are not considered

We hope every one of our Demo-
cratic readers will read the article on
the first page Of this paper, giving a
fragment of the testimony of Mrs.
Chisholm, relative to the murder of
her husband and children. Let every
father place himself IN Chisholm's
place, let every mother place herself
in Mrs. Chisholm's place. Let them
imagine how they would feel to stand
helplessly by and see an innocent
daughter brutally beaten and then
murdered by Democratic bullies-to
see helpless little boy shot to death,
simply because their father dared to
be Republican.

1t is proper that the people of Ohio should
KIN what the great Democratic financiers are
doing. A short time ago we published one of
Ewing's transactions at Ironton, by which a
poor widow was swindled out of her living.
This was no electioneering lie, but solid fact,
from public record, and no Democratic paper
has dared even to refer to the matter. Last
week we told how the valiant General had for
gotten to pay little board bill to Mrs. Hunt, a
poor widow in Portland, this county. Now
read the following, from the Tribune, published
at New lexington, Perry county:

After William Allen had been elect

The Democrats came into power last January,
after our political opponent had held control
of the State of Ohio for nearly twenty years,
but we couldn't.find, after most careful exam
ination, single case of official corruption.
They had done some things that were wrong,
nothing that was corrupt. They spent more
money than heavily taxed people well could
bear, but they didn't steal any.

Furnacemen. Look Here.

The iron business is the main busi-
ness in this county, and in all this
southern part Of Ohio. Every body
is in favor of a tariff on iron, in this
part Of the State The present tariff
amounts to about one-sixth Of the
price of pig-iron, and until the recent
advance in the price of iron, it was
about one-third Of the price.
The Wood tariff bill proposed to
take this tariff almost entirely off.
Ewing and Rice both voted for the
Wood bill, while Foster voted against
it. This statement is made from a
personal inspection of the Congress
sional Record, the official record of
Congress. We have these books in
our possession, and any man can ex-
anime them. The vote is found in
Vol. 7, part 5, pages 4154, and 4155,
and the vote was taken June 5, 1878.
The member from this district, Hon.
Fl. S. Neal, also voted against the
Wood bill
Now we ask the owners of furnaces,
who have been voting the Democratic
ticket, to examine this matter. Come
to our Office, and we will show you
the record. We ask men who work
at our furnaces, what they think Of
Ewing and Rice on the tariff question ?
We ask the farmer, whose market is
at the furnaces, to consider his own
interest, and the interest of his neigh
bors, and vote against Ewing and
Rice. Foster voted for tariff: Ewing
and Rice voted against it. Choose ye.
