and resolutions adopted by the
Tax party, in order that our peo-
pie may be able TO compare their
platform with that adopted by the
Anti-Tax men. A casual reading

tencies and in view of the State
law governing, its absurdiues
WHEREAS, Under the ordinance
passed by the Board of Mayor aud
Alderman of the incorporated town
of OsccoIa, on the 3rd day Of Feb
ruary, 1850, regulating the work
ing and repairing of the streets and
alleys of said town, it is made the
duty of all male persons not there
IN exempted from road duty, TO
contribute so much as ten days in
each year toward said improve,
ments and repairs and
WHEREAS, Under said ordinance
the majority Of the largest property
holders in the corporate limits Of
said town are, by reason Of various
legal causes, exempt from such
duty, thus leaving the greater part
of the burdens of such repairs, &c,
upon the shoulders oc the poor
classes and those who actually own
no property, compelling the com.
mon day laborer to contribute as
much, and in most cases, more to-
ward SAID repairs, &C., than his
wealthy nelghoor, who carries his
heavy freights over the streets,
damaging them more in one day
than would the other in a whole
year; and
WHEREAS, SAID ordinance does
not, and did not at the time of its
passage, reflect the will of the peo-
pie Of said incorporated town, but
on the other hand was pushed to
its third reading with undue haste
the rules having been suspended
so that the people could have no
chance for Il far discussion of its
merits and
WHEREAS, Such q system is un-
equal, unjust and oppressive to
the people, who ought on y to con.
tribute to the support of govern
ment, like all other sources of pub.
lie revenue, in proportion to the
interest represented by dollars and
cents, which they have In the same;
now therefore,
Be it resolved by the people of
the incorporated town of Osceola in
mass meeting assembled, That we
condemn as unjust, unfair and op-
pressive, the said ordinance, and
demand the immediate repeal Of
the same.
Resolved further, That we are
in favor OF an ad vaIorcm tax, to be
levied on the taxable property
within the corporate limits OF said
town, and not to exceed one. half Of
one per cent. for the purpose Of
defraying the necessary expenses
of repairing and improving said
streets, alleys sidewalks and public
grounds, and that we will support
no man or set of men for the Office
of Mayor, Recorder and Alderman
of said town, who does not stand
pledged for the repeal of said or.
dinancc and for the passage, when
necessary, of an ordinance levying
an nd valorem tax rs aforesaid.
The above is a true copy of the
resolutions.

We lay down the following pro
positions for the study OF the voter
at the approaching municipal elec-
ton:
LIST. Any tax LEVIED by the cor
porate authorities OF the town of
Osccola, must state distinctly what
the tax is for. II 1t is to be used
for street purposes, 1t mrstso state.
2nd. A tax for the improvement
OF a street must be paid by the pro-
perty holder on the street improv-
cd. Nobody else can be made liza
bic for that purpose.
Bird. Nobody living in the tovn
OF Osceola and subject TO road duty
can avoid work on the public roads
by reason of any town ordnance
taxing the citizens for street pur-
poses. In the absence Of an ordi-
nance in conformity with the Act,
approved March 10, 1879" the IN
habitants of the town of Osceola are
subject to be worked under the
general road law of the state.

ACCORDING to story, the Hancock
people are gathering recruits in great
numbers. The accounts of the mul-
titudes that flock to Democratic stan
dards are calculated to cheer the
erring brethren to no uncommon de-
gree, and it might be a source of
alarm to Republicans, if it were not
for the fact that the Democracy are
somewhat given to high coloring
Every one knows that during the
Greeley campaign the erring breth-
rem told every day of great multi
tudes that flock to their party, and
everybody knows what the result
was. The Greeley campaign is only
used here to illustrate low easily it IL
for Democratic leaders to declare
that so and so will be the result, and
that when the result is found it is
something entirely different from
what was predicted. If Republicans
viii turn out at the polls, Hancock
cannot be elected: but let no one he
deceived that the victory is to be an
easy one. The Democracy propose
to contest every inch, and Republi-
CANS must be correspondiDgly active

"ONE of General Gartield's staff
says that a fugitive slave with bleed
ing head came in Kentucky once, hot
ly pursued by planter The divi-
sion commander, who believed in the
fugitive slave law, wrote an order to
Brigadier- General Garfield to hunt
up and deliver the negro, who was
hid in Garfield S command. Garfield,
on receiving the order, wrote ON the
back: L respectfully but positively
decline to allow my command to
search for or deliver up any fugitive
slaves. 1 conceive that they are here
for quite another purpose. The COM
mand is open, and no obstacles viii
be placed in the way of search. The
messenger told Garfield he was afraid
he would be court-martialed for dis
obedience of orders. The General
replied: The matter may as well be
tested first as last. Right is right,
and do not propose to mince mat
tiers at all. My soldiers are here for
other purposes than hunting and re-
turning fugitive slaves. My people,
on the Western Reserve of Ohio, did
not send my boys and myself down
here to do that kind of business, and
they will back me up in my action.

The Democratic platform declares
in favor of a tariff for revenue only,
and that means free trade. They
must be accorded the credit of hav-
ing told the truth this time The
history Of Democracy clearly tells
that in the Polk campaign the Dem
ocracy deceived the people. They
declared that they were for Polk and
the tariff of 1912, and that Polk
would prove as good tariff man as
Clay, but just so soon as Polk was
warm, or comfortably seated in the
Presidential chair he turned out to be
a revenue tariff man, a trader,
and the Democratic Congress acted
with him, and the tariff laws We're
repealed and the manufacturing in
dustries of the country prostrated.
Now, however, the Democracy do
not come with double tongue on
the tariff question, and if the manu-
featuring interests, and the people
who believe in American manufactur-
ing interests vote for the Hancock
party they need not whine when
sweeping free trade laws are enacted
by Congress. The man who believes
in protection to American manufac-
tors cannot consistently vote for the
Democratic Hancock party. If you
are free trader, the Democratic
party is the party for you- If you
are protectsoaist. the Republican
party is the party for YOU.

THE Pittsburo Commerc;aI savs

The Pittsburg Commercial saws =
If Hancock is not a Pennsylvanian,
to what State should he properly be
credited 2 An answer to this has
been already given. In yesterdays S
paper we stated that, although a ma
tive of Pennsylvania, he is and has
long been citizen of Missouri. He
married there thirty years ago, and
is now credited on the army rolls as
belonging to that State 1t would
have been false and absurd for the
Democrats to have claimed jackson
as North Carolinian, or for the Re
publicans to have put Lincoln up as
kentuckian and it is just as ridi-
culous for the Democrats to claim
HANCOCK as Pennsylvania. It is
worse dan ridiculous. It is u glai-
ing false pretense, and one which
Hancock should scorn to sanction.
1t is well understood why this false
claim Is made in his behalf. 1t was
fitting that the Union General and
the soldier statesman" should hail
from Northern State. One of the
greatest objections to taking up Bay
ard was the fact that he would be
credited to the South. So, in order
to screen as largely as possible the
real purpose of the rebel brigadiers
in selecting tool like Hancock, they
found it convenient to credit him to
Pennsylvania, which he left when six
teen years of age, rather than to
Missouri, where he has had his home
and citizenship ever since early man
hood.

Republican and Democratic Tariff.

Senator Hoar at Boston Ratification.
Under the Democratic policy of the
tariff for revenues only, the starving
laborer Of England, who cannot get
money enough to take him to the sea-
coast, tolls YEARLY for sixpence a day,
and his months work produces cloth
enough to make suit Of clothes. The
farmer in Illinois, or IN Peunsy lvania,
or In Western New York, or in Iowa,
or in Massachusetts, has to show for his
months work q barrel Of -four, and the
jobber and the merchant of New York
and the English capitalist who own the
store, or who conducts the exchange,
takes out of this man the price of three
suits of clothes more to make the ex-
change by which the cloth is taken
from England to Iowa, and the -four is
taken back from Iowa to Eogland. The
laborer in England aud Ireland, the
farmer in the northwest, gets but one.
quarter of his own product for binself
and pays out three quarters to those
middle men who make the exchange.
Now the Republican tariff says to the
English laborer and manufacturer: "1f
you want to exchange your cloth for a
barrel Of -four of the American farmer,
if you want to make clothes for US,
come over here and make them settle
yourselves down by the gates of the
farm house, establish your factory on
the river on whose backs the wheat and
the beef grow, aud save the product of
your labor on the one hand and the
product of your farm on the other,
wholly for yourselves. Applause.
And that is the tariff doctrine of the
Republican party"
