more will they be "run' by the politicians
and schemers after the elections, and the
less independent they will be. This ia the
issue now. He that votes a partisan coun-
tyticket put up by the inevitable "town
clique that every county Seat always has,
votes that the rule shall be to put the
selection of our officers into the hands of q
self-appointed few. He that votes for the
independent ticket, votes that the rule shall
obtain that the people of the county shall
select their own officers solely upon their
qualifications and entegrity, and that such
officers shall enter upon their official duties
unshackled and independent This issue
must be decided OF next Tuesdays election,
and if our people say they must have our
little local, purely home affairs mixed up
with partisan passion, then must all parties
hereafter bow to this verdict and do the
best they cam laae

BE WARNED.

1t is rumored that great many more COZ
ored voters are registered in this CITY than
there are actual negro residents of lawful
voting age. If this is so, and it comes to
US pretty well authenticated, 1t means
mischief. 1t means corruption of the bal
lot-box. 4 representative will be found
and voted for every colored man on the
register list. The co'orcd republicans have
been we'll drilled They know their part
They will vote first under one name, then
90 away, change their clothing and return
and vote again under some other name, or
90 to some other ward and vote. They
have been drilled for repcaters and they
will repeat, and will be helped to repeat
by the same INSCRIPTIONS men that have
been drilling them, and who are now
trumping up the charge of intended
frauds against the democrats
We warn the democrats of this repubh-
can scheme to use the negro rcpoaters on
election day. DoN'T PERMIT IT. Protect
the purity of the ballot-boX and the rights
of citizens at all hazards. Let no man have
access to the balot.box who is not legal
voter. Promptly and fearlcssly arrest the
first attempt to repeat. There is no use in
fooling with these premeditated and we'll
arranged republican plans to corrupt the
ballot.boS. Watch them and prevent their
execution. Let democrats defend and pro-
tect their rights at the ballot,box as
they would defend and protect their lives
and their property against midnight mar
aulers.

ADJUSTMENTS.

In recent Issue of the Washington
Critic, appeared the following well de-
served notice Of the great minstrel troupe
that will give an entertainment in the
atheneum next Wednesday night,
Within hall an hour after the doors +1ere
open last night every seat in Ford's opera
house was occupied, and up to the rise Of
the curtain a steady stream Of spectators
poured in and filled the alsles and available
standing room. The temperance of Bar
low, Wilson, Primrose and Vests Ministries
was the occasion of this vast gathering, and
a right cordial welcome was extended the
talented band Of performers. OF the per-
Torrance, there is but one comment to
make, 1t was thoroughly frst-clsss, org
inal and new, and kept the audience in
tensely interested and amused all the even
ing. This famous company remains tor
the rest Of this week, including special
matinee tomorrow afternoon.

THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT.

But few Of our people are aware of the
meaning of the words "For the proposed
amendment" and against the proposed
amendment" which are printed at the
bottom Of the election tickets In order
that they may be enabled to vote intelli-
gently we print the following which is the
amendment proposed TO the constitution of
the state
"In each county there shall be elected the
following county officers at the general
election to be held on Tuesday after the first
Monday in November, 1882 A county
judge, county clerk, sheriff and treasurer,
and at the election to be held on the Tues
day after the first Monday in November,
A, d., 1884, q coroner and clerk of the cir
cult court (who may be ex.officio recorder
Of deeds, except IN counties having sixty
thousand and more inhabitants, in which
county recorder of deeds shall be elected
at the general election in 1884, Each of
said officers shall enter upon the duties of
his Office, respectively, on the first Monday
OF December after his election, aud until
their successors are elected and qualified.
Provided that no person, having once
been elected TO the Office Of sheriff or treas
urer shall be eligible to reelection to sad
Office for four years after the expiration Of
the term for which he shall have been
elected.
The design is to do away with an cleo
ton every November, making the fall cleo.
tons alternate yeara, and eleeting sheriff.
and treasurers of counties for four years
instead of two, and rendering them ineligi
bic for immediate reelection.

MORE OYERCaARGES

On page sos of the Revised statutes Of
Illinois, under the head of "Fees Of the
clerk of the circuit court, will be found the
following: "For recording any deed Or
other instrument in writing for every one
hundred words, in counties Of first class,
ten cents in counties of second class, eight
cents, and o certificate, to be made by the
recorder, of the recording a deed or other
writing and the date of recording the same
signed by the clerk, shall be deemed suf-
fcient evidence OF the recording thereof,
and for which, including indexing said
instrument, there shall be charged a fee OF
twenty-five cents in all coun-
ties Of first and second class"
This law fixes Mr.. Reeves fee for
recording any deed or other instrument at
TEN CENTS FOR EVERY HUNDRED WORDS and
for furnishings certificate Of such record
andlndexing hesame, TWENTY-FIVE CENTS
An ordinary deed contains about six hun
bred and fifty words, at ten cents per hun.
dred, would give siyty-fve cents, and this,
with furnishing certificate and indexing,
would give the clerk exactly ninety cents.
This is the lawful fee for such work, and
to exact anything over that amount, Is a
violation Of the statute. Mr.. Reeve has
been in the habit Of charging one dollar
and quarter for this work. an overcharge
of thirty-fve cents, and when it is consld-
cred that the amount of work Of this char
acter is by no means small, ii will be seen
that Mr. Reeve has wrongfully collected a
very snug little sun. Among the few
instances which we recall at the present
moment is that of Mr.. VIM Bracken Of
Thebes, who was made to pay three dollars
and five cents more than the law required
him to pay. Another case is that
Of Judge C. a. Marcheldon, also Of Thebes
who was likewise compelled to overpay Mr..
Reeve for the same kind Of work. 1t is
unnecessary to mention more Any person
who hes had any recording done by Mr.
Reeve a, any time before about = month
ago, can count the words of their papers,
allow ten cents hundred for them and the
twenty-five cents for certifying and index.
ing, and he will find that he has been over
charged from twenty-five to fifty per cent.
SO bold had Mr.. Reeve became in this prac-
tice that he did not even heed the prostests
Of some of our most prominent citizens
and property holders, who knew the law
one of whom, Col. McKeaig, threatened to
have him indicted for such glaring and
willful violation Of law. 1t is only short,
time since Mr.. Reeve saw fit to abandon
the practice and then only because some OF
the good citizens of the county were much
agitated over 1t and he was lead to believe
that his chances for reelection would be
ruined. These are the facts. We submit
them to the voters of the county and leave
them TO pass judgment,

TO The WORKINGMEN.

AN ADDRESS OF THE woRKINGsiEN's PARTY
OF CALIFORNIA TO THE woRKINGMEN AND
WOMEN or THE UNITED STATES.
SAN Francisco, Cal, Oct. 81. 1880.
To W, II. Barnum, No. l5S Fifth Avenue, New
York.
To the Workingmen and Women of the
United States: The Workingmcn's party
OF California, heretofore not af1iliating with
any political party, but new having unani-
mously resolved to support Hancock and
English, send greeting To their brethren
and sisters of labor Throughout the east,
north, and south Of their common country
without distinction Of party and appeal to
them for relief. The toling masses of Cali
tornia, once occupying the proud position
Of being the best paid and most prosperous
of any in the Union, are now reduced to
want and in many instances beggary, by
horde of Chinese who have obtruded them
selves into every branch of industry. The
NHIlc5c COilc WltuOut ldilllllcS, hlOW none

surroundings, live in holes and sleep on
shelves; subsist on rice and other food i'm.
ported from China and do not assimilate
with our civilization. On the Pacific coast
the work of the factory and domestic ser.
ice is in great measure monopolzed by
them so that the interests of the laborlng
women and children, no less
than that of the men, are
involved IN the disastrous and unequal con-
lct between the two races, the one of
higher, the other of lower civilization.
They have almost entirely driven the whites
from the cigar, boot and shoe and clothing
factories. They are exclusively employed
in wooIen and broom manufactures,
and the curing of fruits and fish. The
laundry work is completely IN their hands,
and in fact there is scarcely any employ
ment or manufacture in which they have
not entered and supplantcd the Caucasian,
Our skilled laborers, men who have> spent
years in learning trades, walk the streets
without employment during the day and
return at night in despair to their impov-
crshed families and homes. Our boys are
no longer aprenticed and are growing up in
idleness, without work and without trades.
Our girls are driven from domestic service
No one can hope to compete with the
Chinese in any branch Of labor in which
they choose to enter, unless he sinks to
their level, gives up all home and family
ties, lives as the Chinese do and becomes
as they arr, mere human machine. The
Monaghan evil has reached us and is now
destroying us.
IT WILL SOON BE UPON you.
1t is not 80 far from New York to San
Francisco, as it is from Hong Kong to San
Francisco. The 4O0,0OOO0O Chinese have
awakened from the slumber Of ages,
and unless their influx Is checked, they will
food the eastern states as they have already
have the Pacific coast.
WE CAN HOPE FOR NO RELIEF FROM THE RE-
PUBLICAN PARTY.
That party, and especially Garfield, have
always worked to promote Chinese emlg-
ration to this country, and TO give the
Chinese the right Of suffrage. In 1850
Garfield showed by his vote in congress
that he favored Chinese suffrage; in 1874,

navy yards and in 1879, he voted ito sus-
tain the presidents veto Of the Chinese pas
sengcr bill, measure introduced aid pass
ed In congress by democrats, and which
would have solved this great and burning
question,
OUR ONLY HOPE Is IN THE ELECTION or
HANCOCK AND ENGLISH.
The platform on which they stand speaks
in no uncertain terms. We are not polit-
cal agitators or malcontents, but the repre-
sentatiyes Of mechanics and other boilers
why have been schooled and made to UNI

DEAR Su!-I have been informed to-day
that certain parties, who oppose my election
as county commissioner, are reporting that
I care nothing for the office, aud was only
placed on the republican ticket to fill the
same up. Such reports coming from those
who oppose me are wrong, as am candi-
date and before the people; if elected, will
do my best for the interest of the tax.pay-
crs of our county. There is no
truth in the report and it is only made to
keep me from being voted for. | hope the
people will not be mislead, and if they
think it to the best interest Of Alexander
county and the taxpayers, that they will
vote for me and that such statements will
not deter them from so doing.
Yours, CO. PArlER.

NO POLITICS IN COUNTY AFFAIRS.

NO POLITICS IN COUNTY AFFAIRS.
The Shawnee Herald, republican pa

same view Of mixing politics with county
affairs that we do, and thus forcibly ey.
presses itself in favor Of placing the best
men in office regardless Of what their politi.
cal opinion may be;
"The feeling TINT there should be no
politics in county elections is growing, aud
has become all but universal. II would be
almost impossible to find man who does
not believe that the interests Of the county
demand officials chosen for their quail
acations and integrity. The more they are
"run' by parties before the election the
