STuDi--A PLEAsURE.-1t is very easy to be
stu,lious without hard study. There is Il habit of
observation into which persons educate themselves
that is i'll sense cxactng OIL the vitality: on the
other hand, il is refreshing and cxhilarating: and
yet it is hut the way they who follow it have of
cultivating their faculties and filling their minds
with useful information. They arc thoughtful.
full of reflection, disposed to bclieve everything
has Il lesson for them which they are to learn
aud without any of the drugery of the school
house library, they accumulate treasures OF
knowledge. So poorly is this understood how
ever that if one is told TO be studious he has no
other thought than that he is advised to tire
himself out with porting over books and enduring
the WEAKNESS of secusion. Ifa young man will
only think of it rightly he will seek to be studious
in the plcasantcr way of thoughtfully considering
al he scrs and hears, thus making his acquisition
of knowledge part of the peasantcr occurrence
of his ifc.-EE.

The following is or was the in
scription on the Andre Monument at
Tappan, N. j., which has been twice
damaged recently icy some dynamite
fool, who ought to be shut up with
Sergeant Mason for about the same
period of years:
Here died October 2, 1880, Major
John Andre, of the British army, wLo
entering the American lines on a Sc
cret mission to Benedict Arnold, for
the surrender of West Point, was Ia
ken prisoner, tried and condemned
- sp4EHis death, though accord
ing to the stern code of war, moved
even his enemies to pity, and both
armies mourned the fate of one SO
young and brave. In 1921 his re-
mains were removed to Westminster
Abbey. A hundred years after his
execution this stone was placed above
the spot where he lay by a citizen OF
the states against which he fought,
not to perpetuate the record of strife,
but in token of those better feelings
which have since united two nations,
one in race, in language and in relig
ion, in the earnest hope that this
friendly union will never be broken,

the floor in broken pieces, which Rre
st-ewed all over the Judge as h@ayl
sprawling. As he scrambled tgais
feet with a sense of injured aigsty
fresh upon him lie saw that Senkor
Butler, or South Carolina, who oeu-
.piedthe next seat, was smiling hrdd
ly, and his ear caught the whisper
of some one on the other side styling
him the Jumbo" of the Senate. He
WAS so indignant that he staked
around the Senate chamber sew ral
times, and then, becoming a little
more composed, he selected anoher
chair after a critical inspection Ind
deposited himself in it. Senator hut
Ter went over to him for modifying
purposes, but the Judge waved lin
off and declined TO listen to him. On
the last occasion that he bursed
through a chair Mr.. Conkling, Who
was then in the Senate, chuckled au-
dibly, and he would not take any
notice of him for a week after.

EATON, OHIO,
April 1852.

We extend sweeping invitation
to the People of Preble County to visit us,
and examine our Spring and Summer stock
of Dry Goods. We have exercised extreme
care in making our selections, and are pre-
pared to offer more varieties, later styles,
at lower prices, than any other store.
We commenced business in Eaton with a
determination to come to the front andmake
our store the leading one in the county. To
accomplish this, we were aware that we must
offer inducements to buyers, in the way of
larger stock, better goods, and lower prices
than any other store. -
This we have succeeded in doing. It is
well known we have a large stock, and bet
ter goods at lower prices than any other
store in this part of the country.
One price to all-and that the lowest-is
our motto.
Truly Yours,

the

the Presidency.
Here we find a recognition of thai
moral monster which has arson in
our political affairs corrupting and
destroying u free institutions
Blaine and Garfield were both behind
the screen for n short time only, and
began to see the workings of the dire
evil with but slight conceptions of its
magnitude and danger. Little did
Garfield think when he spoke Of this
monstrosity in our public affairs, as
Mr.. Blaine describes, that he was
dealing with his mortal enemy SO
soon to consign him to the tomb
This spoils system of Office, based on
the controlling passions of cupidity
and ambition, has so entwined itself
into the secret springs to human nc
ton as to move and sway the people
of the nation. The life or rather
death of single individuals r as
nothing in its way. It has corrupt
ed and degraded the moral sense in
high places. To perpetuate power
in it's own hands it has introduced a
partisan system of deputy marshals
and supervisors of elections, and the
use of money at the polls to corrupt
voters, and as its rule Of action has
proclaimed "anythtng to be jrstifia.
BILE in morals and in law that will
beat down the Democratic party and
keep itself up" Thus the spoils
system of Office has not only murder
ed Presidents, but corrupted and de-
stroyed the essential elements of free
government. 1t is the vampire which
has been taken away insidiously the
very life blood of a free people; SO
that the most serious question now
presented for consideration is wheth.
er there is public virtue enough left,
whether there is political vitality still
existing to enable the people to throw
off the incubus, and by a great moral
struggle to recover and reinstate
their institutions on q safe basis.

own masters under tutelage, the end
o fpopular government will be at hand
except SIS to the forms. And this obi
Gus centralizing plan, of which the
alleged ignorance of the colored vo-
ter is made the preteNt, is deepening
the race prejudice, and strengthen
ing even among Republicans the hos
tile impressions Sc boldly expressed
by Senator Jones. When the blacks,
like other people, educate themselves,
they will be fitted for political pow
err; but they can eve be properly
trained by the very Government
which, by their votes, they are ex-
pected to control. Meanwhile, the
party which attempts to disfranchise
any large body of American citizens,
black or white, will come to serious
grief.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1882-04-27


The Register in its issue of two
weeks ago published a communities
ton from Twin township, which was
filled with the most shameful epithets
against the Germans and Irish; ap
proving its language and sentiments
by its publication without comment.
Finding however that ever foreign
born citizens are not dogs that would
lick the hand that smites them, but
men who are ready and able to retail
late in a way that hurts not the feel
ings Of the publishers alone but their
pocket books also, they in the last
issue of the Register seek TO avoid
the consequences of their indiscreet
aud malicious conduct in publishing
the communication by charging in
their last issue that they were de
ceived as TO the author that "they
were Sold" that the communication
"~denouuces the Dutch in terms they
would not indorse &C."
The retraction is thinner than a spi-
der web. An editorial in the same
issue of the Register was scarcely
less severe upon the Dutch and Irish
than the "Readjuster" communica
- mt -
Register never seems 80 happy as
when abusing somebody. And when,
finding that lie has made "a bass" of
himself, seeks to retract what be has
endorsed and published.

The Republicans and the Ger
New York Sun

Il
The Ohio correspondents of pur
esteemed Republican contemporary.
the Times. is interesting, and, as we
believe, trustworthy. But it presents
a rather gloomy outlook for the par
ty in that State; and what is true of
Ohio is probably true of some @RaSi
States further West 7Efelf
The Republican manages 10 Ohio
feel that they received a stunning
blow in the recent elections; andthey
perceive clearly that the motive upon
which the German voters acted in de-
livering this blow is not temporary
in its nature. 1t is founded in a
principle: namely, the right of the
citizen to do what pleases him so
long as he Injuries nobody else; and
as a principle it is no whit dearer to
the German than to the American.
But in this instance it happens to
have been violated by the Republi-
can Legislature of Ohio in a matter
which concerns practically the whole
body of German citizens. The Leg
islature enacted law known as the
Pond bill, which left them no choice
but to surrender to the State author
tiles the control of their private ap-
petites and morals or else to turn out
of power the party which proposed to
regulate them. They chose the lat
ter; and, judging from the CORE
spondence OF the Times, the breach.
between these voters and the party
is permanent. Strong, angry, and
resentful, the partyis more than ever
determined to stand up for the often
siye measure, and even to go further
in order to punish the Germans, and
at the same time win the favor Of the
more extreme and fanntical temper
ance men. "There are thousands of
Republicans" says the Times, "who
were not anxious to bring on a fight.
but who are full of nerve and fire in
defence of their party against what
they know to be a needless and re-
yengeful var upon it. They did not
favor the passage OF the Pond bill,
but are now set against one inch of
concession from the ground which
that bill occupies" "The only hope
for the Republican party now is to
make a square fghto or the Issue that
has been raised against it, and see
whether Ohio is in favor of aaGwing
fa-faw HutcoracTuveU hold Hway
within her borders, or to allow her
self to be given over to free ~whidkey
and the dictation of the ~saloons.s
Very well, let the contest go on.
There can be no rational objection
against the destruction of the Repub-
lican party. 1t has been too long in
power.
