While the old imbecile crank of
the Eaton Register has been for
months whooping and whining about
a Sabbath and temperance, Why has
he not proposed a representative man
on these questions as candidate for
Congress? The Republicans of this
county have such a man in the per-
son of Hon. d. G. Stubs, and oneof
far more ability and honor than
lShultz. Then why not nominate him
and make a square fight for the prin-
Iciples advocated?

There is Gnunauthentieabed. rumor
afoat that General Sherman is about
to retire from tie army. Before this
report can be fully believed it will
require strong confirmation since the
patriotic zeal of the Sherman family
would prevent them, or either OF
them, from y~oluntarially giving up a
good thing.

TEE TARIFF.-The elaborate speech
Of Mr.. Hewitt, extracts of which We
have already published and Of which
other extracts will be found in the
0AzRTTR to-day, should have a
weighty influence on the people of
this country. There 10 nothing more
certain than that . scarcity of money
among the farming community, which
constitute seyen-tenths of the popula-
tion, will create hard times among the
people of all trades and curtail the
profits of every industrial pursuit If
1t does not stop them for time.
Mr.. Hewitt is protective tariff ad-
vocate but he sees the difficulties
that must result to the disadvantage
Of the country in the future unless
there is q change made in the naviga-
tion and tariff laws.
The present tariff is a scAndalous
robbery Of the labor of the country
that ought not to be desired by any
man that did not wish to be classed
with legalized peculators. While
these laws take one million out of the
pockets Of the people to put in the
treasury of the nation they take nine
millions out Of the pockets of the
laboring people to put into the pockets
Of the manufacturers who Invariably
shut down their mills and discharge
their operatives whenever q demand
is made for wages that will permit OF
their becoming in time the least inde-
pendent Of their employers.
We see plainly the effects of these
laws now in the reduction of the price
of wheat, corn and other producEs oI
the farm. There are few American
steamships on the ocean and the Eng
lish and other foreign steamship linel
agree among themselves as to th,
freight charges and refuse to carr!
grain unless they can sell it at a higI
enough figure to pay double freight
1t has to be sold for cash which great.
depresses trade and causes grail
and produce to be sought ier every.
where in the world that it can be go
in exchange for goods, before the pro
duce Of the American people will b
purchased. Mr.. Hewitt sees tn
difficulty that must arise to this conn
try in consequence, and pointedly an
eloquently states hem in his speech
We regret that he favors the appoint
ment of Commission to revise th
ariff laws, because We think th
remedy needed now but his do
not affect the weight of his argu
ments.
