RHODE ISLAND FACTS.

The Wallace and Butler Senate com.
mittees have turned up some ugly facts
In Rhode Island. The two Senators, An
thony and Burnside, who have been rum
ming this rotten borough, were quite in
dignant when charged with having turn.
ed a gallant soldier, Gen. Shaw, out ofthe
Collectors office, and placing a civilian,
Mr.. Harris, there, failing manufacturer
"To the committee, Senator Anthony
maintained a defiant attitude, notwith.
standing the damaging facts brought out
against him and his rotten borough State.
He said that Rhode Island never would
consent to repeal her law disfranchising
foreigners; no, sir; never, and it WAS not
within the power of Congress to do any
thing in the premises. He insisted that
the Acknowledgement does not come un.
derythe Fourteenth amendment, but it
is quite probable that majority of the
committee will disagree with him on
that question. Mr.. Anthony further
said that he had the words "or nativity"
stricken from the Fifteenth amendment
when it was before Congress, to prevent
conflict with Rhode Islands law. The
proposed amendment read: "The right
of citizens to vote, etc , shall not be de-
MED, etc, on account of race, color or
previous condition of servitude or ma.
tivity." He informed the committee
having the amendment in charge that
Rhode Island never would vote for it
with these words attached, and, added
the Senator, with emphasis, "she never
would either" The testimony taken by
both committees demonstrates the fact
that if it were not for disfranchisement,
bribery and fraud in the elections,
Rhode Island would be Democratic
State.
Finding these investigating commit.
tees coming close upon frauds and other
rascalities, the howl goes up from Re-
publican papers that the committees are
failures. The special telegrapher from
Washington to the Gazette disposes of
Senator Wallace's labors in Rhode Is.
land and elsewhere, by simply asking
how about Yazoo. This chunk of wis.
dom is supposed to. be unanswerable

BUSINESS PRoSTRATION IN GREAT



The prostration in Great Britain may
be seen by the fact that the annual ex-
ports of products have fallen in valne
8B45 D00 600, comparing 1872 with 1878
The largest decrease was in the exports
to the United States, which have fallen
off $l13 0000 The next largest ia Ger
many $62. 900 900 then Holland S33 000-
600; then Egypt $25OO0,C0O. The Lon
don Economist says the particular mark
which chsracterizes the present state of
business depression is it's generality, AL
most all classes are feeling it; the agri.
culturist as we'll as the miners and man
ufacturers. The weather has been 50
unfavorable to the crops that the latest
estimate of the foreign wheat supply re-
quired in England runs upto 1856 100000
bushels. The demands of France will
not fall very far below those of England,
and the probable deficiency in other Eu
ropean countries will nearly equal the
supplies Southern Russia and the Danu-
bian countries can furnish, so that, from
present appearances, the United States
will export the main portion Of the wheat
and -four required by France and Great
Britain. Our ability to meet such de-
mands is indicated by the estimate that
the wheat crop of this country in 1879
will exceed the crop of 1875 by about the
quantity required by Great Britain, SO
that the increase of production has kept
pace With the increase of demand, and
our farmers have been enlarging their
yield Of the cereals as rapidly as Euro.
pean crops have been declining. The
capacity to supply enormous exports of
animal food has been as well demonstra-
ted as our ability to export breadstuffs.
The Post says:
The outlook is bad for England. One
of its first effects appears to be general
immigration movement of skilled me-
chanics miners and small farmers of
moderate means to the United States
There is ample room and verge enough
in this country for all the farm labor
that is likely to come over, but it is very
doubtful il the field for skilled labor is
encouraging, and particularly for miners.
In the coal mining regions of Pennsylv'a
the supply of labor is in excess of the
demand and further competition can only
have the effect of keeping wages down.
OF anthracite coal %, 100000 tons is said
to be the maximum annual product that
can be made to pay. The present force
Of miners and laborers in the anthracite
region is put down at 10000 men and
boys, and they can mine the amount
needed by the trade by working three
days of the week.

HOW WATCHES ARE MADE.

twill be apparent to any one, who will examine
SOLID GOLD WATCH, that aside from the necessary
thickness for engraving and polishing, large pro-
portion of the precious metal used needed only to
stffen and hold the engraved portions in place, and
supply the necessary solidity and strength The sur
plus gold is actually needless 50 far as UTILITY and
beauty are concerned In JAMES BOSS PATENT
GOLD WATCH CASES, this WASTE of precious
metal is overcome, and the SAME soLIDITY AND
STRENGTH produced at from Onethird to one-half of
the usual cost of solid This process is of the
most simple nature, as follows: plate of nckle
composition metal specially adapted to the purpose,
has two plates Of SOLID GOLD sOdered one on each
side. The three'are then passed between polished
steel rollers, and the result is astrp ofheavy plated
&C composition from which the cases. backs, centres,
bezels &C.. cut and shaped by suitable dies and
formers. The gold In these is sufficiently thick
to admit Of all kinds Of chasing, engraving and
amelling: the engraved cases have been carried un-
til worn perfectly smooth by stlme and use without
removing the gold They are Tor sale by all jewel

SHERMAN and Schurz want the silver
dollar of the shylocks, rather than the
dollar of the dads" They want silver
coinage stopped when the amount is the
largest that will float at par with gold,
or, make the silver dollar more valuable
to accommodate their creditor friends.
Sherman was the first man to propose
the demonstration of silver. He is a
gold man, and fathered the gold bill Of
1869, making the 20 bonds payable in
gold, Thus, as Wendell Phillips says,
adding thousand millions to the bur.
dens of the people.

sTARK COUNTY POLITICS.

and was addressed by Prof Worley, Jno.
M. Myers Esq, and Mr.. Gray of Wooster.
Democrats of Stark intend to get to

We are glad to see 30 many Of our
prominent Democrats interested in our
clubs and 80 attentive to the meetings

they would find time.

PUSH ON.

That boy was true philosopher, who,
when he lost his kite, thought he would
cry about it, but Immediately after con-
cluded not to, and went home whistling.
When asked if he wasn't sorry to lose
his treasure, replied: eyes, but I can't
fool away much time in being sorry l
am going to make new one, and l guess
better one." A great many full.groWn
men haven't learned that lesson yet.
When they have split their milk on the
ground, they sit down close by the wet
spot and dilute the lost lacteal fluid with
their briny tears. If, instead of this re.
pining, they would only skurry around,
they would soon find another and big.
ger COW waiting to be MIXED. Don't
skulk, because it won't pay.
The above contains good advice to
good citizens. Let our Democratic friends
remember that works are necessary unto
salvation. What if the Republican lead
ers have the money power at their back;
the PEOPLE are incorruptible. Radical
leaders may get their knaves, by means
OF money, to go about and howl; but
such fellows need scare no honest man I;
their howls are but noise, and their era
ven, corrupt hearts lack the nerve of
honesty. These hirelings are got to do
the dirty work, so that the leaders may
use it. The Seitz law is having a re
straining effect. This corrupt use Of
money is dangerous business under
this act. 1t is as dangerous to receive
as to give. 1t is under such law in
Pennsylvania that several Republican
officials have been landed in the Peni-
tentiary.
The Democracy: now, as here etofore,
depend upon the People. Every good
citizen is interested in just, honest and
economical government. No good citi.
zen should favor the party that runs the
government in the interest of monop.
oily, either In money or aught else.

IT has become quite favorite method
Of casting ridicule upon Democrats, to
say they are whisky drinkers. Now the
facts are, the majority of men who make
whisky and sell it, and the large major
ity of saloon keepers and their patrons,
are Republicans. The majority of those
in our prisons, &C.. are Republicans, and
Of those guilty Of bribery in the Legis-
