The Jackson standard. [volume] (Jackson C.H., Ohio) 1847-1888, 1882-06-01

WE can respect m2ssback Demo-
crat. We can tolerate rebel; but
we despise the half breed idiot. He is
never satisfied unless he is engaged IN
some deviltry Therefore we fully
indorse the following, from the Cler-
mont Courier:
The Republican State Convention
Of PENNSYLVANIA sought to nominate
a ticket that would harmonize the
discordant elements Of the party in
that State The element that has
been making the trouble there is the
half-breed element which numbers
about one in five or six Of the Repub-
licans Of the State. In the convention
this element was allowed to dictate the
platform and was permitted to name
three out Of five of the candidates on
the State ticket. The nominee for
Governor. General Beaver, is however,
regular Republican, devoted to the
party and its principles, man who
never gets sore or sour tie is an
honorable man, a Christian gentleman:
No man has ever uttered word OF
reproach concerning him. He was a
gallant soldier one may Judge OF
| his devotion to the Union from the
fact that having had his leg shot off
in one Of the battles, he refused to re-
tire from the service, as any other
man would have retired, but remained
at the head of his troops till the war
closed. going into battle strapped to
his horse-and to-day he goes about
on crutches-as some one has SAID OF
him eloquent crutches." He was
nominated by the votes Of a large
majority Of the convention, and with
out having made any effort to secure
the nomination. One would think
there could be no objection on the
part of Republicans to such a man
One would think that every Repub-
lican would throw up his hat for him
and take off his coat, roll up his sleeves
and 90 to work for him and endeavol
to give him such majority as would
be an honor to the old Keystone State
| But not so. The half-breeds are dis
satisfied. It happens that Senator
Don Cameron feels friendly toward
| General Beaver and intends to vote
| for him. and in the eye Of your half,
breed. that is e. mortal sin on Beaver
part. Your half-breed is a marvellous
| " conscientious creature, and he can
not conscientiously vote for any maj
for whom Don Cameron is willing, t.
vote. General Beavers abilities, hi
Thigh character as man, his record a
Ia soldier all go for nothing in view O
1.-The fact that Don Cameron likes HIN
and will vote for him. That IS sll
: for which Beaver can have no for
giyeness either in this world or tn
next. So the half-breeds will hold
convention and nominate a ticket o
their own. They will not be particu
: lar to have any soldiers on the tlcke
or ANYBODY with brains and character
but they will take somebody, anybody
no matter who or what, who IS nc
cursed with the friendship of Senate
Cameron-and they will vote tina
ticket in the interest Of the Demo
cratic party, and large number
Republican newspapers in the State
Ohio. the large majority Of them n
: doubt, indeed, all that we know
except the Courier, will applaud then
Is but the old soldier will get aroun
over Pennsylvania on his crutche
and appeal to his old comrades i
!, arms and to the high-minded, patr
;. otto men of the State and will carr
= the State by rousing old-fashione
majority. We make the predictio
that Pennsylvania will give Gener
4 Beaver larger majority than she hi
given to any one since Grant ra
]. against Greeley She gave Grant OF
hundred thousand.
