Government Didn't the Democrat
ic party try with all its might and
main to destroy the Government
Didn't your grand old rebel traitorous
Democratic party wage a foul inhu-
man warfare against the Government ?
Didn't you fight for four long long,
weary, bloody years to kill the Gov
ernment? Didn't you entail want
and woe and misery and an enormous
debt upon the whole country? But,
also, didn't your traitorous, bloody
handed Democratic party, get sweetly
licked"
And now these Northern Demo-
Gratis have the brazen effrontery and
cheek as to proclaim to the world at
large, that the Democratic party, is
the Great [ Am-That it saved the
country-That had it not been for the
grand institution known as the Dem
ocratic party the country would have
perished. We pronounce all such
talk as balderdash, and poppycock.
And what's more, there isn't scintil-
la Of truth in such statements. Ev-
erybody knows the Democratic party
well enough to know its past history
its record. And for any speaker to
get up and salve the thing over in
this manner-well, it shows that he
either wants to blind the people or is
natural damphool himself, one or
the other. That's the long and short
of the matter Yes, the Democratic
party, forsooth!

Making Profits out of Human Weakness.

Making IrOHtS out Oh HuInhn W edkneSS.
1t is not only among lawyers that a
certain class is found who induce
quarrelsome or avaricious people to go
into lawsuits by telling them they are
right and must seek redress by law.
They do this for the purpose of OBJ
tanning their professional fees, in place
of giving them the honest advice to
settle amicably, by mutual agreement,
as in nine cases out Of ten would be
far better
We find the same class of men
among doctors, who, when people
mention some slight ailment, make
them believe that they are sick, or
soon will be very sick if they do not
take a certain course of medical treat
ment which they will prescribe. They
also do this for the purpose Of obtain
ing a professional fee, in place of CIV
ing them the honest advice to fast for
one or two days, to take rest, and to
stop drinking and smoking, if they are
addicted to these vices. In nine cases
out of ten this would be far better.
The lawyer of this class makes the
client believe that he has been wrong
ed, and the doctor makes the patient
believe that he is very sick. They all
have their own profit in view, and
play upon human weakness, which, in
some individuals, consists in combat
iveness, in others in imaginary weak
ness of body, and again, in others, in
conceit about their mental accom-
plishments.
There is no profession in which
men can make money out OF it by
telling people about their weakness of
mind. The only mental weakness OF
which people sometimes complain is
defective memory, but they will never
complain about defective judgment or
defective common sense. This agrees
perfectly with what a German physi-
clan has lately argued in an essay,
that insanity is blessing, as the in
sane live in an ideal sphere, which
usually is far happier than the reality
in the world of trouble through which
they have passed and which made
them insane. But the fools outside
the asylums, which largely outnumber
those in confinement, are happy also,
while the sensible people have all the
cares. How far it is right to attempt
the cure Of the insane is another ques-
tion. The German physician referred
to considers it an act Of unkindness,
if not cruelty, to restore the happy
lunatics in asylums again to this
world of troublesome realities, while
we consider the cure Of the lunatics
out Of the asylums an impossibility.
Already Solomon had found this out
when he said: Though thou shouldst
bray fool in mortar among wheat
with a pestle, yet will not his foolish
ness depart from him."

To the People of Jackson County.

We have reached a period in the
history Of our A Agricultural Society at
which it must be revived or die Now
the question to be considered is, can
we afford to let it die? Jackson Coun-
ty, with her varied interests, occupies
an honorable position among the
counties of the State Many of her
interests, however, are not fully de-
veloped; In fact none are out Of the
reach of improvement. It is business
therefore to develop as rapidly as pos
sible In doing this it is also business
to employ such means as are within
our reach, will meet the demand in a
business point, and at the same time
be made means of pleasure and So
cial enjoyment. A County Fair prop
erly conducted, will, think, more full
ly meet all these objects than any
other institution we have; in fact, it
appears to be the only one that can
be made to accomplish the social fea-
ture nicely, without suffering in some
other direction. Political parties only
serve and please those who hold with
them; churches also have their preiu-
dices, and in short, nearly all organi-
cations have class interest: but this
is not true of County Fair, conduct
ed as we can and should conduct one
Every business interest in the county
worth looking after, could and should
be represented, and the beauty Of the
thing is, every citizen of the county
has common interest. All have a
right to be fully represented. There
is no conflict. We learn what our
neighbors are doing in every depart
ment Of trade, and show what we are
doing. All can learn the business re-
sources of the county, &c. In addi-
ton to the business advantages, come
the social features, which is certainly
an item that cannot be too fully ap-
preciated Citizens and friends meet
without any conflict Of interest, all
interested in encouraging the various
industries Of the county meet to note
and discuss in fair, friendly way, the
merits and improvements, or in a like
spirit to criticise, &C. Old friends
meet, who but for this, would have
nothing to bring them together. Our
great trouble with the farmer is, his
business is such as to keep him at
home so much that he loses all desire
to 90 out into society. Anything
therefore that will cultivate social
qualities in him should be encouraged
A man who expects to be an intelli-
gent farmer must keep posted in the
improvements of the country, and
this he can do best by going out
among his neighbors, and visiting
such places as are designed to promote
these interests. All counties having
we'll regulated and prosperous County
Fairs as a rule, take an active part il
our State Fairs. County Fairs furn
ish the material for State Fairs. Th,
State Board is beginning to appre
ciate this fact, and as a consequence
are treating County Societies will
, much more consideration than for
: merly.

Drunken Husbands. Should Wives Con-
tinue to Live With Them?


Another man, according to the pa
pers, came home drunk the other night,
dragged his wife out Of bed by the
hair of her head, mopped up the floor
with her awhile, and then amused
himself by kicking her until she be-
came senseless. 1t will now be in Or
der to offer that woman little advice
Women with drunken, dissolute hus-
bands generally receive plenty of it,
because their more favored sisters,
whose welded lives are made one long
gleam of sunshine by devoted love
and care, are always sure that they
know just what they would do were
their Eden blighted by the curse of
intemperance and infdelity, and lack
ing opportunities for testing their
theories, generously offer them to wo-
men who have.
1t would be amusing, were there not
so much ground for Indignation, to
notice how invariably they begin by
limiting that the faults of the delin-
quent husband must be the outgrowth
of wife's own shortcomings or
dereliction of duty. "Are you sure, -
asks the partial feminine querist,
''that you are not yourself somewhat
to blame? Have you always met
your husband with a smile? And
have you efficiently encouraged him
by strict domestic economy? etc. etc. u
| wonder if there was ever a drunkard
who was not driven to drink by hole
in the heel Of his wife's stocking; or
a defaulter who wasn't driven into
crime by an extravagant larder; or a
wife beater who wasn't driven to it by
grease spot on the carpet; or a
street brawler who wasn't forced into
it by his wife's crying baby; or an
untrue husband who wasn't made un-
faithful by the wife who couldn't or
wouldn't sit and smile when he swore
at her? And then happy wives quote
''for better Or for worse to their un-
happy sister, and advise her to cling
to her miserable brute of husband in
the hope of reclaiming him and thus
perpetuate the heathenish religion
that makes woman think it is her
sacred duty to live with a man after
he has forfeited all claim to the name,
shortening her own life, and cursing
posterity to the third and fourth gen
Grafton for the sake of remaining the
better-half of a beast. She sees him
sink lower and yet lower in drunken
debauchery, and, if she dare make any
moan, the world answers reproachful-
ly, "You don't deserve any pity. Your
dirty collars, wornout slippers, tears,
and repinings, have been the cause of
the poor mans ruin" 1t is my secret
opinion that some of these ruined
husbands will wake up at the judg-
ment to find that they are, after all
accountable beings. If women even
come to understand "that the Lord de-
lighteth in justice and judgment more
than in sacrifice then will end tnis
cruel, meaningless sacrifice of human
life, health and happiness.

A CORRESPONDENT of the Memphis
Appeal says there is plot forming
mong the Republicans of Mississippi
to outvote the Democrats, and re-
marks:
"Such is the plan Of the Radical
managers, and they have hope, in fact
they have assurance, that Southern
Democrats will cooperate with them,
in the garb, dress and paraphernalia OF
that political ignus fatuus, the Nation
al party, of which Denis Kearney is
the leader, the brains and capital.
Awake! Let the Mississippi plan be
restored. . Mississippi has been as
signed the duty of supplying two of
the numbers required to reduce and
destroy Democratic majority in Con-
gress. Will you submit? Can you
stand idly, supinely, and witness the
consummation of a gigantic conspir-
acy, in conception deeper and more
poignant than the fraud of 1876?
No0a thousand times no. Then
awake, stir up your clubs, let the
shout go up, put on your red shirts,
and let the ride begin, OF we will be
sold into political slavery, as was
Joseph, without Divine favor to re-
store us to our heritage"
This is, no doubt, in the interest of
pacification.

because | am satisfied our people are
too intelligent not to understand this:
but did intend to tell you what the
Board have done for our Fair to come
off the 10Th, 18th and 18th of this
month, and l did intend to ask your
hearty corporations. The Board, in
getting up their premium list, were
cramped somewhat by the i'm power
ished condition Of the Society, but
were disposed to exercise all the liber-
ality the circumstances justified, Of
fering ON many articles of Importance
larger premiums than ever before, and
did much to improve the list generally
by harmonizing it. The percentage
fee of 10 per cent. will not be charged
this year. All you have to do in Or
der to compete for any premium offer
ed, is to buy a membership or family
ticket, which will cost one dollar. To
make the Fair more enjoyable to the
fun loving, it was arranged to have
the pacing match the first day, the
trotting match the second day, and
the sweepstakes the third day. New
classes have been added, composed of
the different irons manufactured in
our county, also the different ores and
Goals found in our county. This be-
ing our chief source Of wealth, should
attract its full share Of attention.
The Board are exercising unusual care
IN the selection of committees, having
already chosen and notified by postal
all the committees composed Of fe-
males. These committees, as we'll as
those to be chosen, will represent ev-
cry part of the county. Several new
items of interest will be introduced
during the Fair. So far as [ am con-
cerned, | propose to work hard for the
Society, and charge nothing for my
services. In addition to my general
interest, | feel a personal pride in
making our Fair a success. there
fore promise to do my utmost to give
all who take part in it, fair count;
that in all its details it shall be fairly
and honestly conducted, and as soon
after the Fair as possible see that a
statement Of the receipts and expend-
itures is published in our county pa
pers; in this way, giving every mem
ber full understanding, which is un-
doubtedly their right.
Now, all that | have said, and the
Board can do, will simply amount to
nothing, unless the people support the
Fair It is, and | know it, in your
power, and without much effort, to
make it a splendid success, enabling
the Society to pay full premiums, or by
Withholding your support and counsel,
make it an utter failure. Success this
year means everything to the Society.
1t will save it's life, restore confidence,
and lay the foundation for increased
success in the future
Let us in this case apply business
principles just as we would to other
matters that we wish to make success
full, and our Fair will give satisfaction
to ALL JOHN L. LONG, Pres,
2w Jackson Co. Ag. Society.

The editor in commenting on the
proceedings Of the meeting says:
IT The Convention was addressed by Hon. Thomas
N. Runyan, Of Marion who se1erally made eloquent
crowd in cries and mufterings for peace and the
close Of their speeches.
That crowd, no doubt, wanted to see
the bold soldier boys come marching
home from Canada.
On the 4th of March, 1868, the
Ashland Union said editorially:
Our readers win vi, find on the first page Of this paper
rdlis Those The peOPe must & either submit m or
men viii resist, and they cannot commence tieir
preparations for it too soon
The Circleville Democrat, the organ
of the party in Pickaway county, said
editorially under the date Of April 10,
1861:

hands to hospitable graves.''
On the 22d of February, 1864, the
Dayton Empire, then, and for years
before and years after, the great
maker of Democratic sentiment in
Western and Southwestern Ohio, said
editorially:
morality (pubic and private? is dying-an that We
IN Society Is
n dying too by hundreds IN red of the
and miserable people.
We are not assailing those men, not
abusing them, not misrepresenting
them. We are simply quoting their
sayings, at the request of leading
Democratic organ, in order that the
young men of this day may know
what transpired when they were chill
dren. The men who said these things
are crowding to the front; they are
leading Democrats now, as they were
sixteen and twenty years ago; and
they confidently expect to enjoy the
usufruct when Hancock becomes
President. We do not say, and have
not said, that they are dishonest men,
thieves and low bred villains. But
they were secessionists-State Sover-
eighty men-in 1S60-'65 and they
have not changed their principles.
They do not pretend to have changed.
They hold that the Democratic party
is an eternal, Interchangeable entity.
Young men, old men, conservative
men, Union loving and liberty loving
men, may safely take them at their
word
The principles held by the Demo-
cratic party, North and South, twenty
years ago, led to secession and civil
war: and it is the boast Of the leaders
and organs of the party that they are
yet Democrats Of the olden time
The election Of Hancock would not,
perhaps. lead to secession this year or
next. The election of Franklin Pierce
did not lead to immediate secession;
but the election Of Buchanan, another
Democrat, in 1856, prepared the way
for secession and civil war four years
later. The principles of the party
tend in that direction State Sover-
eighty means secession; and until the
Democratic party abandons that prin-
ciple it cannot be safely trusted with
power.

FROM the day that South Carolina

Gated the maintenance Of the Union

We make this remark for the benefit

and space we propose to show that
neither these newspapers nor their
present owners and managers have
held to such doctrines. Our present

A WOLF having got into his throat
a bone which tramp had left on the
highway, tried to hire a crane for
large sum to extract it. The crane
demanded the money in advance, and
thereupon the wolf drew its note at
sixty days, without endorsement, on
the Second National Sand Bank of
New York, and rendered it in payment.
The crane didn't know much about
business, but before extracting the bone
went off to negotiate the paper, but
without success. Now, the wolf had
intended to impose on the crane, and
as the latter did not return, died de-
served death.

SchOO! Commissioner.

Col. Burns, who is the Democratic
candidate for School Commissioner,
derived his military title from Jeff.
Davis for gallant services in the rebel
army during the rebellion. What a
commentary on Ohio politics? Cat
heart who was elected in 1862 State
School Commissioner by the Demo-
cratic party, was, soon after being in
augurated into his office, found to be
in an extensive conspiracy to release
the rebel prisoners at Camp Chase and
burn the City Of Columbus. He es-
capped before he could be apprehended
and never has been heard of since.
Is it well that the education Of our
children should be presided over by

rewarded by office; and, especially the
important office of presiding over
their education and early training?-

The epicene press seems so fearful
that the party that broke out in re-
bellion in 1861, plunging the country
into civil war, and that now openly
proclaims that nothing but the cow
ardice of its leader prevented its rising
in revolt in 1877, may be libelled by
the suspicion that it means to seize
the Presidency. These gentlemen will
do well to consider the history of the
past twenty years. 1t is their habit to
belittle political dangers and hold as
groundless the reasonable apprehen-
sions Of thinking men. They did it
from 1856 to 1861, and since 1865 they
have been clamoring continually that
there is no danger whatever from the
party that never looses an opportunity
to do mischief Just now they are in
sisting that Hancock can be trusted
and there is no danger of his taking
part i'll any movement to seize the
Presidency But there is enough il
Hancock's career as a political Gener.
al, in his associations and in the means
whereby he was nominated, to arouse
suspicion, and enough in the charactel
of the party behind him to cause
