The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1880-10-28

Laboring men who want to put
their muscle against the nasty, filthy.
pestilential, rat eating cheap John
Chinaman in this country, should
vote for JAMES A. GARFIELD for Pre-
sident. He is in favor Of filing eve
ry city, town and village with them
that we may have cheap labor!
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1880-10-28

There is not a particle of doubt
but that GRANT, CoNKLING, CANE
RON, and other leaders of the Repub-
lican party, are determined to push
this country into Imperialism! GAR
FIELD has consented to be their tool
for four years, if elected! Every
poor man that votes for GARFIELD is
therefore voting away his liberty and
privileges as a freeman! Are you
ready to do so?
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1880-10-28

Every Democrat who voted at the
October election should be sure and
vote on the I'd Of November. This
is a year of political surprises. and
the State being carried FOR Hancock
is, not an unlikely event. Then
don't fail to cote!
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1880-10-28

The whole idea of the leaders of
the Republican party has been to
scare the people into voting for the
perjured Garfield. They first tried
it on the "solid South" and "South-
ern Brigadiers," but the result in
Maine showed them that was played
out. They then shifted to the Tariff
dodge, the mos. contemplate of
all. The man who allows his vote
to be controlled by such stuff, is
hardly deserving of one.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1880-10-28

When a party undertakes to make
political capital for their candidate
for President out of an absolute and
positive crime he committed, rs the
Republicans have done over the 1929
that GARFIELD received in the Credit
Mobilier swindle, it is surely time
for the honest and conscientious
voters of this country to call a halt.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1880-10-28

Let honest voters remember that
every charge of corruption and brib-
cry against JAS. A. GARFIELD, origi-
mated with his own party friends
1t was them that declared him "dis-
graced in the eyes of the natio1,"
because he was connected with the
Credit Mobllier corruption! Is he
a fit person to elect President?
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1880-10-28

No man is entitled to respect who
purchases his nomination for a pub
lie office, and then purchases votes
enough to defeat the honest express
sion of the people through the ballot
box. We have none for him.

If anything is done that effects
the interests of the Bondholder, the
Republican papers raise q fearful
howl, but no attention is paid to the

One of the choice campaign songs.
as sung in the Republican wigwam,
has the chorus of a religious hymn,
"Glory, glory, hallelujah"
When Bob Ingersoll, the inidel,
the enemy of God and religion, made
a speech at Springfield a few weeks
ago, surrounded by ministerial
brethren on the platform with him,
he made this declaration. "If God
Almighty was the Democratic can
didate and the devil the Republican
candidate, 1 would vote for the dev
H." OF course he would, but when
he thus declared his preference an
aged preacher thumped his approval
with his cane on the platform! And
this is the good, old pious party that
boasts of all the Intelligence and
morality" of the country! How
Christianity and churches ought to
grow under the benign influence
and care of such lights? Is it any
wonder Sabbaths are disregarded
and church pews r silently vacant?

Let no Democrat fail to go to the
polls and vote for HANCOCK.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1880-10-28

Let the people remember that
Hancock's record during and since
the war is without spot or stain; that
he was one of the bravest men in the
army and is one of the most patriotic
and able in times of peace. If any
man tries to buy your vote for Gar
field in November, enquire of your
self whether the would be buyer was
an honorable soldier or 4 man above
reproach. The brave ex soldiers of
the war will not be round buying
votes against Hancock. Some of
the buzzards and camp followers
may. Spot them.
