DEATHS

DIED, at his residence, at Boyd's Station,
on Wednesday morning, 10Th of November,
1882, at 2 o'clock, HAMILTON BuRDETT,
in the 10th year OF his age.
The subject of the above notice was one
of the best known and most highly esteemed
citizens of this, his native couAty. In all the
relations of life he established and main
tanned the reputation of an honest, con-
scientious and upright man. Whilst retir-
ing in disposition and manner, he was an
ample provider, devoted and true hus-
band, a kind and faithful father. His life
was marked by beautiful christian consis.
tency in word and deed, possessing moral
culture and piety of no common type.
He was suddenly attacked with paralysis
few days before his death while seated at
the dinner table and from which he never
recovered sufficiently to enable him TO con-
verse with his wife and children who hover
ed around him.
Rev. Randolph Murphy conducted the
funeral services and preached most touch
ing sermon in the presence of large num-
Der of relatives and friends who had assem-
bled to paw the last tribute of love and re-
spect to one whom they chose to honor.
| There is always something sad and sor-
rowful in the death of loved one, but 10
part with father or mother sends regret
trooping deep into the hearts Of the family
circle Who can measure the depth OF the
widows sorrow or the daughters woep On
his bed of affection, though partially I'M
conscious, he was thought TO be praying
constantly, but the pride, the idol OF the
household lies cold and silent under the
pattering rain drops and the lisping south
winds. The stricken ones have felt the last
time in this life the touch of the fathers
hand, but one thing must be encouraging 70
them in his last moments as heaven seemed
to be drawing nearer and nearer upon the
bosom of this good man he was heard to
say, "Praise the Lord

CONTEMPORARIES IN CRIME

In our last issue we mentioned very
briefly the action which President Arthur
had taken in the displacement OF certain
officials. because of their active particlpa-
tian in the interest of the star-route thieves
The letters Of Attorney-Ge Brewster
ana 6peclal-Attorney Bliss to the President,
which has been recently published, has
raised the curtain upon state OF things
well calculated to make patriotic citizens
reflect.
~ Il is not the first time by any means that
the fact has been revealed that when official
knayefy is detected in any department oil
the government, other officials Immediately
begin to exert all the influences in their
power to avert punishment of the guilty.
When President Grant, in spasm OF VIZ
iuous indignation, determined to put down
the Whiskey Ring, he struck, as he sup
posed, in distant st. Louis and Cincinnati,
.bnt at the first blow Convey of wounded
ducks fiuttered up from beneath his very
feet.
Il will be remembered that the ramifica'
,tions OF the conspiracy were found to extend
into the very bosom Of the Presidential
family. Nothing of the sort has been dis
covered in connection with the star-routt
frauds, but il is now known beyond tho
possibility Of denial that government OIL
scials and government money have been jus
ms zealousiy and extensively used in shield
ing the thieves from the consequences
their villiany as in bringing them to justice
In fact, the letters of Messrs Brewster ant
Bliss reveal state of affairs In which
while some government officials are tryinl

pRTNcTpLEs or DEMOCRACY.

, |
A. party claiming the confidence OF the
country must of necessity go before the
people with certain definite aims and pur-
poses by which it purposes to administer
the affairs of government when placed IN
power.
The day has gone by for glittering gener-
alities or vague platitudes. 1t is true there
are now before the people few questions on |
which men OF parties are rallied in DEFIANT
anddecided opposition. But, nevertheless,
the public will demand definite line oil
policy,the reform of abuses, and good iaith
In carving out professions of economic and
honest dealing.
Ex-senator Mcdonald, of Indiana, is one
of the the ablest and one of the best men
the West has ever sent into our national
councils. He is credited with the follow
ing timely and terse enunciation OF Demo-
cratic principles, which speak in no uncer-
tain manner of what the Democratic party
purposes to do:
.aThe tariff must be reduced to the reve-
Taxes must be levied only for the support
Of the Government
An expenditures authorized by Congress
must beffor National purposes, anu lor no
other purposes, and economy must be en-
forced in all departments OF the Govern
ment.
The interference of the Federal Admins
tration in. State elections and State affairs,

must cease.
AS soon as possible all laws authorizing
liberalization beyond the limits oil the Con
sttution must be repealed.
Political and official honesty must be MADE
the test of eligibility to Office,
In shot, we must merit as Democrats TIT
confidence which has been reposed In us oJ
thepeople."
lifts not difficult to understand the tarli
question as thus presented. A tariff 10
reyefftfe is not free trade, and is not tarii
FOR protection. 1t means that the necessar.
expenses Of the government shall be mainl.
Borne by a tax or duty upon articles I'm
ported into the country; that its provision
shall be 50 adjusted as to give incidenta
protection where it is for the interest OF tn
people that certain manufacturers Shout

products of the soil encouraged in their in
fancy.
If the Democratic party will plant itse
upon the principles here enunciated, 1t wi
command the confidence of the country.
The people believe, and have every rel
son TO believe, that the expenditures OF I'll
government have become enormous wastei'
and corrupt. That the public treasury hi

TheBuckeye Binder
For Wire or Twine.

For Wire or Irvine,
Is more simple and more durable, having few
er parts than any other.
1t is entirely automatic, leaving the driver
only his team to look after.
It is the lightest and strongest binder in the
field.
The bundles are all made any desired size,
and exactly the same size, and arc all bound
as tight as the driver may wish, and all equal
ly tight.
The packers make neat sheaf, even out Of
tangled grain.
II does not get out Of time.
There is no gear to be looked after, AS the
binder mechanism will only start when the
required quantity OF grain is under the pack
ers.
The wear is small, ms the binder works COM
paratively only small part of the time.
No grain is wasted.
The twine is not strained in comprcssing-
that is done by the machine. The compressor
is very simple, and it's operation is perfection
itself. Hence the Irvine need be only strong
enough to make reliable band No machine
is more saving Of Irvine, and none can use
lighter Irvine.
The separation is perfect, whatever may be
the condition of the grain.
A man who can run II dropper can run this
binder-in fact, il leaves the driver much less
to do than many reapers, for the machine is
automatic, and controls its own operation
entirely.
