THE LIVERPOOL TRIBUNE

of the Stark County DEMOCRAT, in its
last weeks issue.

that we say when Englishmen come to

"do is to unite with the Republican

through his columns, and that but re-

The Stark County Dem Graf has al
ways exposed and opposed the Know
Nothing Republican party-has de-
nounced Republican Rhode Island in
disfranchising citizens of foreign birth
on account of being poor laboring men
has denounced the leaders of the Re-
publican party for so shaping the XVIII
amendment as to admit of this Rhode
Island arrangement, This is sufficient
TO yindicate us from any prejudice
against any nationality. Besides, we
have constantly arraigned the Presiden'
tial fraud in the White House, for his
veto Of the bill passed by Democratic
Congress to res rict Chinese emigration,
with view of protecting our laboring
men from competition with Cooley sla'
very.
In addition, we have arraigned Gen.
Garfield and Congressman Mckinley for
sustaining Hayes's veto, or coward
like, lodging a vote on measure so i'm
2ortant to our laboring men. How is
the Tribune on the Chinese question?
The Rep. we regret to say, is an ardent
Chinese organ, and justifes Hayes, Gar
field and Mckinley. The Rep, too, was
a Know Nothing organ, rabid and mean

ton, was a leading spirit in the oath
bound midnight order, which he will
not deny. Their favorite motto was
"Put none but Bmt riCans on guard to-
night ;"-and they claimed it was an or
der Of Washington's, and Tom in his ig'
norance probably believed it.
The Tribune may see by the foregoing
how it comes that in Stark county our
adopted citizans are generally not Re-

Our contemporary Of the Tribune may
not be aware of the principles of the
Know Nothing order, Of which neighbor

Each member took severe and terrible
oath to keep all adopted citizens, espec.
tally Catholics, out of Office; and to pre-
vent the naluraliz 3tion of all foreigners;
or, at all events, until they had oeenin the
country at least twenty one years. We
refer to our neighbor Of the Rep for the
truth Of what we say; for, no doubt, he is
as earnest as ever in the cause, and
hence he prefers the Chinese slave ele.

This is no doubt the reason that Hayes,
Mckinley and the Republican
leaders generally favor Chinese immi
