The Republican who votes against
his party ticket, State or County, this
fall, and then boasts of his Repub-
licanism, understands what he is do
ing just about as much AZ North
ern soldier would have done had he
fired blank cartridges at the rebels
when they were placing his life in
peril. Democrats are not guilty of
any such nonsense as this. If they
are not strong enough to win them
selves, they get up "sugar coated"
ticket label it Sthe Peoples grand
panacea for all political ills," and
then laugh at the way they deceive
those who honestly swallow their
medicine. If a ticket of this kind
is successful at time like the pre-
sent, when there is not the slightest
occasion for scratching any Repub-
lican candidate, it will afford the
Democrats an opportunity of rejoic-
ing that they have not had since the
war, when an occasional Union de-
feat filled their hearts with gladness
and Joy. But if YOU wish them to
have as long faces and as solemn
countenances as they had when they
read of the glorious victories at
Gettysburgh, Vicksburg and Ap-
pomattox Court House, stand fast by
the Republican colors and vote the
straight Republican ticket.

The Constitutional Amendment.

Although we called the attention
of our readers several weeks ago to
the Constitutional amendment which
they are to vote for OF against this
election, we again refer to it. The
following are the exact words Of the
proposed amendment;
Section Is. The legislature shall
not authorize any county, township,
city or other municipal corporation
to issue bonds, or to become indebt-
ed in any manner, to aid in the con-
struction or equipment Of any or all
railroads to any amount that shall
exceed five (5) per centum of the
value of the taxable property within
such county, township, city or other
municipal corporation. The amount
of such taxable property to be ascer-
tanned and determined by the last
assessment of said property made,
for the purpose of state and county
taxation, previous to the mourning
of such Indebtedness"
At the bottom of all the Republi-
can tickets you will observe these
works in accordance with the direc-
tons of the Act of the Legislature;
Unconstitutional Amendment
Limitation of the taxing powers of
the Legislature"
If voter wishes the adoption of
the amendment, he will write Eyes, -
Immediately after the word Legisla-
ture; if he wishes to vote against the
amendment, he will write "No," in
the same place.

A man by the name of H. II.
Harris, who has been dealing large
iy in wheat at Litchfeld, succeeded
in getting a considerable quantity
of grain-it is estimated not less
than 10000 bushels-which he
bought on time and issued his tickets
for the same. Having swindled the
farmers and dealers in that vicinity
out of about $4,000, he skipped
away, and wrote that all parties who
desired to settle at twenty-five cents
on the dollar should address him at
Bellevillc, Ont.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1879-10-30

From the above it will be seen that
one dollar to-day will purchase more
of the above articles of clothing and
food than could be bought for three
dollars IN what are now called the
s'aush times" of 1865.
Wages have not decreased in any,
thing like that proportion, but the
workingman can see that with every
dollar he now earns he can buy more
to supply the needs of himself and
family than could have been pur-
chased with three dollars earned in
lse5.-Bangor (M.) Wing.
We have made some changes re
ducing the prices Of 1870 as originally
published, but any one who will take
the trouble to inquire will find that
they have been corrected in accord
