Where the Danger Lies.

that the crime of assassination can be
prevented, or at least much checked,
by severe punishment of the assassin.
They think that if Guiteau could be
tortured to death. no other criminal
would attempt SO horrid a crime.
This has been tried in Europe, and
other countries, in former times, but
it appears to make the matter worse.
Most lunatics who commit these
crimes are religious fanatics, who be-
lieve that they have special revela-
tion from the Almighty, to do such
deeds. What folly it would have been
to argue with the fanatic who mur-
dered his own child couple Of years
ago! He kneao the Lord had revealed
to him that he must sacrifice his
child.
When any one begins to pirate
about special revelations being made
to him, he should at once be put in a
straight jacket, or knocked on the
head. There is no safety where that
class of lunatics are permitted to run
at large.
There is another evil under the SUM-
There should be some way to prevent
newspapers claiming respectfully
from advocating assassination.
About one year ago there was great
excitement in this county, and much
bitterness on the part Of a certain class
Of laboring men, who thought they
had been badly treated. Whether
these men were right or wrong, does
not matter, in the present discussion.
The Sheriff Of the county called upon
the Governor Of the State for troops,
and they were sent, at great cost to
the State, and it caused the death of
some Of the soldiers. In the midst of
this excitement the Cincinnati Com
mercial, in two separate issues, charged
that an agent at one Of the railroad
stations in this county, was also con-
nected with one Of the coal companies.
The coal company were compelling
the laboring men to purchase supplies
from them. Some of the poor fami-
lies had raised hogs, and when they
wanted to kill them for meat, the
company asked an exorbitant price for
salt. The men refused to pay the
price, and sent to Portsmouth for a
barrel Of salt. This railroad agent,
who was also agent for the coal COM
pany, charged these poor laboring men
more for freight on the salt than its
original cost, and he made the remark
that he would show them how to GO
away from the company store to get
their salt.
As we were personally acquainted
with all the railroad agents in this
county, we knew that this was not
true, and we wrote to the Commercial
| to give the name OF the agent, and at
what station he could be found. The
Commercial paid no attention to our
communication. In few days we
wrote again, but still no attention was
paid to the matter.
One day last week, the Cincinnati
Gazette, in speaking Of the balloting
for U. S. Senator in New York, said:

each Conkling had the same thirty lone FoteS Those

1t is now often asked where in the Slate OF New York
such persons find place to live. They certainly
could not exist comfortably in this part of the
country.

The Democratic papers are now
praising President Garfield They
have found out that he is a great and
good man. Democratic friends, this
is gaining information that will be of
value to you. It would have beer of

have prevented you from parading
yourselves as liars and scoundrels by
Crawling around on your bellies and

THE Cincinnati Gazette declares
Conkling to be the most unpopular
man in America, yet calls on the l.eo-
pie Of New York to mob him in order
to get him out Of the Senatorial race
ALI this because he has great por-
tion of the Legislature favoring him
for u. S. Senator. In other words,
he is utterly unpopular, yet the GA
zette wants him killed because Of his
popularity.

that mob would make short work

In speaking about Vice President
Arthur, the Gazette says:
What's the of wrangling any longer about Conk-
ling. He is politically dead. Whether the President
dies lives, there is recovery for Conkling. Nor
any politician afford to tie himself to Conk!ng.
Some one has suggested that if Gen. Arthur should
met Gen. Arthur might better jump from the high
est pinnacle of the suspension bridge into the East
River than do that. No man can afford to slap the
itcs for Roscoe Conkling.
Here is notification to Gen. Ar
thur. and a threat, that he will be,
and ought to be, murdered. should he
have the audacity to choose his own
advisers, should he become President.
Is there no way to stop such talk
Would it not be we'll to administer to
the Gazette a dose of its own med
licine?
