Our Democratic Leaders Of Ohio County
C0mplimented. s.

We lost the battle last summer by
want of concerted action, by permitting
ourselves to be divided on individual
popularity and Jy the unscr,tputous
fraud and corruption of the Democrat
ic party mdndgers.-OhiOC County Net s
of December 18th 1879.
What party managers in this county
acted corruptly last summer What
Democratic leader or manager in this
county was guilty of fraud? 1t is easy
to charge it, but the Ne,cs would have
time in finding IA single case or single
leader i'm the Democratic ranks last
summer guilty of either fraud or cor
ruption. Because the editor of the
Ne,os, last spring, sold his political prin-
ciples, he is naturally inclined t. think
everybody else guilty of fraud and cor
ruption. Everything seen through
green spectacles looks green, and about
March LIST, 1879, the editor of the Ne,cs
bought him n pair of spectacles, one eye
cOlored fraud the other corruption, and
everything he sees since looks like fraud
and corruption. We suppose Democrat
ic leaders, after this handsome compli-
ment, will rally to the support of the
Neps with vim.
