"Beat the Bosses" is the senti
ment of many of the honest Republi
can voters of Preble County. Honest
men in various parts of the county
say the Eaton Bosses have ruled the
county long enough, and unless the
voters "sit down on the Bosses" the
same old rule Of selecting officials
years ahea ! will be continued as in
the past and many honest voters say
the result may as well come now as
at any other time, and the sooner the
better for the people. We think the
voters of the county will sit down on
the Bosses ticket,

Attorney General Hollingsworta

Attorney General Hollingsworth
has given his opinion that a drug
store can sell alcoholic liquors on the
premises. Another undiscovered
charm of the Scott law is exposed.
All that tie bibulous citizens of Bed
ford, Fredericton and other towns
where the prohibitory McConnells-
vile ordinance has been passed, have
to do, is to start a drug store. This
will regulate" the traffic and allow
them to drink whiskey too.

A Republican paper, having pluck
ed up the couarge to deny that Mr..
Garfield promised to appoint Stanley
Matthews to the Supreme Bench, q
contemporary says, very pointcdly:
1.-TWO facts bear with singular force
on this point: The heavy contribu.
tion was made, and Stanley Matthews
was appointed. This coincidence is
so remarkable that it needs explain

The Washington o.. c. Gazette,
m Independent Republican paper,
has this little morsel relating to three
politicians: "Let us see! the sainted
Garfield wrote the Morey letter; the
vet. to be-made saint, Sherman, wrote
the Anderson-Webber letter, and that
other saint-in future, Foster, started
the absurd falsehood that Hoadly
told somebody that he paid $4,000
for his nomination by the Democrat
ic convention. Here are two letters
and one lie that CONSTITUENCIES OF
the most remarkable graduates CT

manship."
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1883-08-30

The Republican leaders and news
papers in Ohio are very inconsistent.
For years past they Lave denounced
the Democr: tic party as the whiskey
party, and now this year they turn
around and accuse tue Democrats of
employing oil the temperance lect
ures that are stumping the State,
and every prohibitionist is looked
uron with suspicion as liable to he
a Democrat in disguise.

The Afro-A american, of Cincinnati,
the organ of the colored people, gives
the following reasons for supporting
Hoadly: In the first place, if the tes-
timony of the colored press of the
country is of any value, there is on
the part of the Republican party,
from one end of the land to the ether,
u contemptuous disregard of the po-
~litical rights of colored men. The res
olutions of the South Carolina con-
vention gives foreible expression to
these charges. All of these CON-
plants are accompanied with threats
of a dreadful something that is going
to be done in case they are not heed.
ed. Now, experience teaches US that
a politician cares no more for protests
than for the idle wind. If the polit-
ical situation does not please you
protest with your ballot, and it will
be Observation-Disclosures not. All this
talk about independence in politics is
| ridiculous in men whose independ-
ence ends in talk with a vote.

The same honesty is required in
politics that is required in business.
We shall always stand by that doc

In speaking of the Republican

In speaking of the Republican
county Convention and its nominees,
the last Register says:
"If fraud or bribery procures a
nomination that vit:ates all and re.
lieves all men from any obligation TO
support those who secure a nomina
tion thus obtained"
Then every Republican voter in
Preble county is free from all obliga
tions to support the nominee for
Treasure of the convention, from the
simple fact that it was made through
fraud and bribery, and we expect TO
see the honest Republicans of Preble
take their organ at its suggestion
If the politics of the country are ever
to be elevated and purified it must
be done through the Independent
voter and an independent and out
spoken press. 1t is their work to ell
evate and purify and enable the pol
itical institutions under which we
live. This is not the work of one
campaign, or of one year, but con
slant, and self-sacrificing work. A
real and genuine reform means the
education of the individual voter to
a higher estimate of his duties, priv
ileges aud responsibilities as a citi
zen. Higher aims, a higher standard
of political life than that measured
by the success of party. 1t means
the emancipation of the voter from
"boss" domination, freedom from all
cliques and rings; freedom from any
influence that interferes with a full,
free and untrammeled exercise of the
ballot. 1t means the smashing q
states, and an end to caucus nomina
tions. It means to take from tho
hands of the professional politician
and 'bosses' of the party, the issue
of elections and the choice of men
and place this power where it prop
erly belongs, in the hands of the PEG
pie. But how is this to be accom-
plished? How is "bossism," cliques
rings and combinations and the cor
rupt purchase of votes to be stop
ped? We answer rs we have otter
done before. Simply by an independ
ent and intelligent exercise of the
ballot. Where a bad or incompetent
man is nominated on one side and
good and competent man on the 9th
er, vote for the better man. In any
event refuse to vote for the man nom
mated by corrupt influences, or wh'
is VIGOROUSLY unfit. Republican vo
tiers of Preble county, take your or
gan at its suggestion, and begin tn
good work this year. Fraud ant
bribery ruled your convention ant
you are absolved from all party oh
legations to support its nominees.
