The cry of Confederate Briga
diers' by the Radicals against the
Democrats in Congress, is becaase
they want to stop the pay Of hired
pimps at IS per day to stand around
the polls to electioneer against Dem
ocrats. The money paid these fel-
lows is the property of Democrats as
well as Republicans, and is drawn
from the public treasury. No good
patriotic citizen should ask such s
fraud to be tolerated.

1t isn't so much a matter now a

1t isn't so much a matter now a
days where a man comes from who
fills a public office. The Jefferson
ian standard is the proper gauge of
a mans fitness. sIs he honest, is he
capable, is he faithful to the Consti-
tution?' That is what we desire to
know concerning ourpublic servants.
What folly then is it to say of such
and such a man that he is from the
lSouth. IF he does not steal and at
tends strictly to his duties, is all
that can be desired When Hayes
put Key in his Cabinet, when Grant
gave Alderman q similar position and
hob-nobbed with Mosby and Long
street, he gave no heed to the fact
that they were formerly sred-hand-
ed rebels" They did their work to
the satisfaction of the country, and
that is more than can be said of some
who denounce every Southern man
as unfit to be trusted.

Columbus Democrat: The Re-
publicans do a vast amount of un-
necessary talking about the Demo.
Gratis attacking the Presidents title.
There is no necessity for such a
thing. 1t is VIGOROUSLY false, fraud
ulent and stolen-so confessed by
the men who stole it. Mr.. Hayes
will be permitted to serve out his
time. The Democrats agreed TO the
Electoral Commissions, assuming
that at least one Republican out of
eight would be honest enough to in
quire. into fraud and vindicate hon
esty. But in this they were very nat
urally mistaken. The robbery hav-
ing been committed, Joe. Bradley in
the name Of the Republican party
and the Supreme Court decided that
the goods should not be surrendered
to the owner. But knowing as they
do know, that Mr. Hayes has no.title
higher than the burglars title to the
office he holds, it is no wonder that
they are in q constant state of merry.
Gus excitement about the matter.

A correspondent of the Eaton Reg
iister, writing from Sonora, Preble
county, on the Murphy business up
there, pays the following tribute to
our fellow-townsman and Mayor, L.
c. Abbott:
"The score of mastery efforts by
Nj. Abbott in these parts, the strength
of argument, diversity of thought,
sparkling u%tterances, and glowing elo-
quence which have characterized eve
ny effort, have called forth a universal
verdict that he is the champion tenn
perance lecturer of The west. Evil

The Supreme Court of Ohio has
decided that where a drunken and
unruly passenger is put off a railroad
train and is then run yer by anoth-
er train, the railroad Company is not
liable. 1t was the duty of the Con
ductor to protect other passengers
against him by ejecting him, and if
he was too drunk to take care OF
himself after that, it was only his
own fault.

In answer to the Senate's resolu-
ton of inquiry, calling for informa
ton in regard to fees paid to deputy
marshals in the elections last fall,
the Secretary Of the Treasury has
sent a statement to the Senate, in
which he saws, that the total of the
expenditures for these purposes, ex-
cept in the Eastern District of Penn
sylvania and part of Maryland from
which no returns have yet been re-
ceived, vas $5S ,249. OF this sum
$25,530 IA expended in New York
city alone by John L. Davenport
Marshals were employed in only
thirteen States-seven Northern and
six Southern. Only about one-tentf
of the whole sum was expended III
the South. In Louisiana the ex'
penses were $3.50, and in Massa
chusetts $3.50. The snallesf
amount spent in any State was $17t
in Georgia. These "deputy mar
shals' we're nothing more than cleo

The Washington Special of the
Pittsburg Commercial Gazette, dat
cd March 18th 1879, claims that the
Republicans have the advantage of
the Democrats in the United States
Senate in point of ability; but has
the candor to admit that Senator
Thurman is the ablest Statesman in
the Senate. This is the way he
states it and explains it:
Thurman is perhaps the best
specimen of American Statesman in
the upper House. Therefore, in any
debate, when a leader Of the Repub.
licau side makes.a statement on any
subject, he is always ready to assume
the position of spokesman for bis
party. The reason for this is, that
Thurman,desotes himself to pol
itics exclusively, and has no occa
sion to dip into the practice Of tht
law to piece out his income"

providing for the erection of durable
headstones over the graves Of sol
diers of the regular and volunteer
forces of the United States whose re-
mains are inferred in the National
Military Cemeteries. This law has
been carried out, and the graves OF
the Nations dead in these cemeteries
are now permanently marked. AT
the instance of the War Department,
Congress has recently authorized the
erection of similar headstones over
the graves of the Union soldiers who
are buried in private and village
cemeteries. All persons having any
knowledge of the burial places OF
soldiers in private cemeteries whose
graves are not marked, are request
ed to communicate the fact to the
Quartermaster General, and give reg
iment, company, and date of death
OF deceased, if known. Similar in
formation is desired from parties in
charge of such cemeteries, but is not
intended to furnish headstones for
graves over which monuments have
already been erected by relatives or
friends of tie deceased.

Ifiti is revolution" to put legisla
tion upon an appropriation bill, then
the Republican party has been guilty
of revolution after revolution, during
its period of power. If it be coer
cion to do what the Democrats now
propose to do, then a Republican
House in 1856 undertook to coerce
both a Democratic Senate and @
Democratic President, and in 1857
they absolutely did coerce ANDREW
JOHNSON into a surrender of q por-
ton of his constitutional preroga-
tives. 4nd all done upon an arnay
appropriation bill! ANDREW JOHN
SON was a President elected by them
selves, and yet, because he refused
at their dictation to continue the
violations of the Constitution, which
during q state of war we're deemed
unnecessary to save the Union, they
pursued him with the remorseles:
fury of hyenas. In the act passed
March, 1867, they not only took from
him constitutional power to command
the army, but they at the same tim'
undertook to deprive ten sovereign
States Ct their constitutional powe
to protect themselves; they disband
ed their MALTA and forbade its reor
ganization without the consent o
Congress! And now the same part,
has the brazen impudence and I'm
blushing'effrontery to bawl out, ''rev

that If the firm had been, under the

have paid every dollar of It's debts
and thus sustained public contid-

not only would oneofthem not have
lost one cent, but each would nave

Mr. Cookies integrity was never
