WHAT DEMOCRATS SAY!

That the people will not endorse the
trading trickery conceived in the back
room of Carpenter s saloon, and car
ried out in the Court House in the
nomination of ticket fixed up by the
clique, DuHadway, Aleshire, DUNCAN
& Co.
The people will not vote for Levi
DUNCAN, because he joined the Muir
phys and did not remain with them,
but lately has been addressing temper
ence meetings, in hopes of gaining
friends, intending to run as a candi-
date for Representative, while saying
all the time he would not be a candi-
date. The Democrats will not sup
port the ticket nominated, prefering
to be beaten by candidates fairly NOM
mated. rather than to succeed with
letting the clique sell over 1000 vo-
ters to about one hundred Nationals,
and the scandalous attempts at for
stalling public opinion. Democrats
say that Tom Washam shall not die
tate to the party who their candidate
shall be, nor shall the Jackson clique
of tricksters. The Nationals made
the tail last Saturday, and next Satur-
day the Democrats will make the dog,
and then the tail will wag the dog.

We received the Portsmouth Blade
on Tuesday. 1t speaks in the highest
terms of the harmony and enthusiasm
of the Senatorial Convention at Ports
mouth last week. From every indica-
ton, Pollard can be elected. 1t is al
most certain that he can carry Adams
county, thus cutting down at one
point several hundred Democratic
votes. Let Jackson county do her
whole duty in this matter. Remem-
Der that it is important-vastly i'm
portant, to have Republican majori-
ty in both branches of the next Leg

The Democrats are asserting that
they are the fellows who were in the
army. True. They were in the rebel
army.
The army vote of soldiers from
Jackson county, in 1863, was as fol

The soldier vote in the State OF
Ohio in 1863 was as follows: Brough

At Middletown, Ohio, a man named
Charles Ballett shot his wife three
times, in the face and neck, and then
shot himself. He is dead, but the
wife may get well. They were mar
ried in 1865, and the wife procured a
divorce on account Of the cruelty of
her husband. He promised reforma-
ton, and they were again married, but
he was as cruel as before, and she
again applied for divorce, and the
attempted murder was the result.

There was quite an excitement at
the residence Of ex-senator Sprague,
of Rhode Island ON last Friday night
As is well known, Mrs. Sprague is the
eldest daughter of the late Chief JUS
tice Chase, and she is a beautiful and
accomplished woman, but there were
hints about the propriety of her con-
duct, even when when a young wo-
man, in Columbus. Mrs. Sprague
had employed German named Lincke
to teacQ her children, and he came to
the Sprague residence, when it appears
that Mr.. Sprague was seized with a fit
of Jealousy, and ordered the teacher
away, and presented a shotgun at
him. Senator Conkling was there on
legal business, and the women scream
ed, and there was a scene. The fami-
ly left, and went to a hotel. We
think Sprague must have been partial

Pollard, of Adams county, was nomi-

Editor Nc,c York Sun:
Last week friend of mine from
PiccadiIly (London, you know made
me visit. OF course 1 showed him
the sights around New York. Among
other things took him to the Hall of
Records in the Park. "This," says I
to my friend from Piccadilly (his name
is Tuppence 'Apenny, Esq "is where
Major Cunningham Of the regular
British army, by Jove, was in COM
mand of the rebel prisoners in King
Georges time, you know"
"Didn't e make it 'of for 'em,
though ~ says 'Apenny.
"You bet he did," says I. "IIe not
only smothered them in hot cages, and
padded them for exercise, but he
starved them. On this very spot where
we now stand he might have stood
when he gave the order that the id
rebels should have only one meal of
bran a day, though he had collected
money in advance from them and
their friend5-not to mention the gov
ernment allowance-for three rations
of bread and one of meat n day"

THE NEGRO EXODUS.
international Roviow. I

international Rcviow.l
A marked race prejudice is shown
against the negro immigrants by the
farmers, who arc mainly Republicans
in politics. Among the small white
farmers of the Louisiana hill parishes
and the German settlers in Texas there
Is exhibited tho same antipathy to
negro neighbors. 1t may be set down
as fact that any community Of white
men who themselves work in the fields
object to being brought into competi-
ton with a race considered to be In
ferior. One of the objections raised by
Kansas farmers to negro settlers is
that the blacks are immoral, and they
fear the results of an association of the
children of the two races In the public
schools. Ex-Gov. Anthony of Kansas,
a lifelong abolitionist and pronounced
Republican, said to the writer that he
was opposed to n pauper immigration
of any nationality or race, and there
fore had no sympathy with the enthu-
siasts who wuuld open Kansas TO the
pauper negroes of the South. The
most potent reason against negro i'm
migration In the minds Of the leading
men of Kansas is a we'll grounded fear
that the news of a numerous settlement
of blacks in that State would serve to
turn the tide of white immigration into
Nebraska and Minnesota. a declared
inclination on the part OF tho present
ad ADMINISTRATION in Kansas to invite a
large immigration of negroes would
immensely strengthen the feeble Dem.
ocratic opposition, even II 1t should not
result in division of the local ISepub
lican party.
