"A commonplace life" we say. and we sigh /;

The commonplace sun in the commonplace sky,
Makes up the commonplace day:
The m"on aud sthc stars are commonplace

And the flower that blooms. and the bird that

And God who studies each separate soul
out Of commonplace lives makes his bcsuti-

We assure our Republican friends, that
Hancock and English, the Democratic
candidates, are going to be elected and
there will be no fraud count this time.
They are both Northern men; honest,
capable and worthy, They will faith
fully keep their oath to maintain, pro.
tect and defend" the Constitution. They
will aim 'to form more perfect Union,
establish justice, insure domestic tran.
guilty, provide for the common defence,
promote the general welfare, and secure
the blessings of liberty"
Our candidates have never committed
perjury have never taken bribes have
never sold themselves to corrupt rings
in order to rob the people. They have
been honest, capable and faithful to the
Constitution.
Republican testimony shows that
Garfield and Arthur are unworthy OF
public confidence.

GARFIgLD,s rARIFF RECORD.


Garfield was not in Congress when the
Republican so.called Protective Tariff
was enacted, in 1861 or 1862, His first
votes were on the tariff bills OF 1870 and
1872.
The Tariff bill of 1870 reduced the
tariff ON Pig iron from nine to 8evea dol
lars per ton, and made anthracite coal
hee
The Tariff act of June 6. 1872 made
the following reductions in the Tariff:
Itreduced the duty on P = iron 70 cts
per ton.
1t reduced the duty on Bar Iron So SO
per ton.
On Railroad Iron $134 per ton.
On Sheet Iron from No. 20 to 25. $S,37
per ton.
On Steel valued at II cents per pound
reduced 80 per ton.
Charcoal was made free of duty.
On Window Glass up to 10 by "a 10.
ches, the duty was reduced 20 cents per
hundred pounds.
These were the only Tariff bills before
Congress during Mr.. Garfeld's term OF
service, and as he claims he voted for
every Republican Tariff bill during his
time, he admits he voted for a reduction,
The Cincinnati Commercial free trade,
Chicago Tribune free trade, earnestly
support Mr.. Garfield. Is it because of
his free trade notions? Is it because of
his being acceptable to the Free Trade

REPUBLICAN, CAMPAIGN LIES.


REPUBLICAN CAMPAIGN LIES.
The Repository, and the Republican
press generally, have been Matching a
lot of southern outrages" for campaign
literature. Among some of them is q
statement of fellow named Randall, Of
how he was treated at Huntsville, Ala
The statement was published in the N.
Y. Tribune, and the Rep. and other Re
publican papers have been heralding it
over the country. A Republican busi-
iess man sent letter to the Tribune
about Randall and his outrage story.
The Tribune refused to publish it, when
the writer sent it to the N, Y. Star. The fol-
lowing is the letter:
To the Editor of The Tribune;
have always been Republican, con-
stquently l read the Tribune Yester-
day l read a report or something from a
fellow named J.. II. Randall in Alabama,
whom l know to be vicious beggar,and
if you waut more about him, ask Peter
Cooper.
But to the point My brother, also a
Republican, has just returned from
Huntsville, Ala, and he neither saw nor
heard of any such things as you publish.
Now, Mr., Editor, may vote for Gar
field, but l know Henry will not, and l
am in doubt il that cause is honest that
has to be prcpped by such politics as you
lately edit. If l have got to be educated
to hate a part of my Countrymen at my
age, and in he year 1880, and by the
most doubtful and seemingly gauzy stor-
les that are ContradiCted by the constant
communications of business men, | will
change my politics, for the Republican
party does not deserve success, if that is
| the method.
know Mr. Garfield personally, but l
know also that my business suffers by
the assaults on the Southern people,
They go to Baltimore to Louisville, to
st. Louis, and in doing 80 | fad my buo-
mess lessened.
Do, Mr.. Editor, try and give us some-
thing that at least appears reasonable
and sensible. What do 1 care what Mr.
Toombs says, if he ever said it, which is
doubtful; nothing is given to sustain the
charge. Rely upon it, you will never beat
Hancock by any such means, and bear
in mind, that, of all things, man hates
to be made tool OF, worst.
Yours truly,

enthusiastic political fight is being car,
ried on in this state, and especially in
this county, which generally is counted
Republican, bat the Democracy never
were more confident, or worked more
harmOniously than they do at this time.
There are two poles raised here, one
for Garfield and the other for Hancock,
the latter being thirty feet higher than
the former
We have huge Hancock club, which
has painted on its spacious walls in large
letters, the name of Hancock and Vic
tory. Meetings are held every third
week, and every night some place in
the county. Many Republicans are sig.
nifying their intention to vote for Han
cock and English, and among these is a
Colcrad lawyer, Ben, Talburt. He is a
sound and truthful exp1under Of the
true inwardness of the Republican seal.
iawags who belittle themselves for ar.
gument sake. Mr.. Talburt has always
been Republican, and even made one
Republican speech, after which time
he soon comprehended the errors of his
way and reformed, as many Republicans
in this state are doing daily.
At Warsaw, last Thursday evening, a
Republican meeting was an entire fail
ure in consequence cf the speakers not
meeting their appointment.
This state will roll up at least $4,000
Democratic majority, from present indi.
cations; though the leading Republicans
are bringing all the money force and
other disreputable means in their power
to carry the state, and to bear on the vo
ters, yet the country people are going
back on them, for they say, Garfield
must have had at least something to do
with the DeGolyer pavement" and as
for Arthur, they say "they don't want
what Hayes did not want"

THE FATE OF JOHN SHERMAN.

To Washington, some years ago,
A man scarce known TO fame,
Who had lean and hungry look,
Out of Ohio came;
10 hll his rather empty purse
Was then his only aim.
When at the nations capital
This hungry man arrived,
He labored like busy bee,
And stores Of honey hived
And at the peoples cost since then
How richly he has thrlved
A lesson Of economy
He teaches every day;
He shows how careful men can save
Sums far above their pay,
And how they hold the road to wealth,
When once they learn the way.
Chief of the friends of Fraud, he paid
Himself his own reward,
And over all the stolen goods
He kept careful guard,
Sure that his way TO higher trusts
Would be no longer barred.
In vain he strove his rising hopes
The people still forbade,
And, lean and hungry at his heart,
His wishes yet delayed,
He now is forced 10 serve the man
By whom he was betrayed.

And placed fair on the ground,
And when the whiskey rings were formed
