Ths Business Scare.

The business scare" gotten up By Re-
publicans in all parts Of the North and
West is the silliest device ever invented,
when examined, YET insome sections il has
awaited that party many votes. The great
business panic Of 1873 alarmed the people,
aud in 1874 Radical majority in the
lower house Of Congress was changed into
a Democratic majority Of about sixty In
1876 the people further demonstrated their
desire for a change, and not only contin-
ue1a Democratic majority in the House
Of Representatives but elected a Demo
cratic executive. Their will in the latter
was overthrow BY the grossest fraud ever
perpetratcd In any country. Bat the poo-
pie were undaunted In 1878 the eoun-
try for the third time pronounced in favor
Of Democratic rule. 1t was the extraya-
ganee and wilful waste Of the peoples

COL. Websters EquirOoal Position.


Col Edwin II. Webster, in his letter Of
acceptance Of the Republican nomination
for Congress, declared himself lin full
sympathy and afiiiaiion With the National
Republican party" But, he also said, in
the same letter,-aAt the same time !
wish it to be understood that can never
Surrender the right to exercise my indi-
sidual Judgment upon all questions that
might come before me as representative
ofthe people"
what does CHS mean2 Docs it not
distinctly imply, that, although, as he says,
he is ia sympathy aud aiiiliation with the
af9obl;ean party, II questions should arise
in which his individual Judgment should
run counter 10 the Judgment Of his party,
that he will take bis own course indepen-
dent Of The action Of his party. Let US
read bis letter 10 the light Of his past re-
cord, and 10 becomes palmer still that such
Is his position Col Webster was former
y a Know Neihisg, he is not Demo-
erat, hut acted with that party just after
the var, and for some tune subsequently,.
More rceeatly, he has occupied sort Of
independent position, not afhliatiug en-
tircly wish either party. Ills aopination
By the Republicans caused him 20 step
down on that side IL the fence, with the
reservation Of the right to exercise his
private Judgment, should questions arise
which might place his Judgment in aniag-
onism to the Judgment Of bis party. That
is Col. Webstcrs position, as We under
stand il, and the only legitimate deduction
fnsm bis letter Of acceptance. Certain
Repsbiisans here have asowed their inten.
ton not to vote for him on account Of his
eqaisoeal position. They say, and with
maeh force, that obey cannot trust him;
