and only increased the danger OF its
flying the track, and soon the cabeose
was oveltaken, but as it was going
almost as fast as the train there were
no serious consequences, and all
rushed down the mountain together,
and caboose, locomotive and iron cars

speed attained was terrific, all reached

The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1883-06-28

The statement that politics or religion
has anything to do with the selection of
Superintendent of our schools is a miser-
able pretext, wanting ever the semblance
of truth, gotten up to aid those over whom
all other argument has failed.-REGIs-
TER.
What did a leading Republican mean
at the last spring election while solicit
ing votes for a new Board, by declaring
that 1--WE want no d Democrat to Su-
p~erintend our schools?" What did q
lady member of one of our churches
mean when she remarked that "we want
a Superintendent of our schools who
takes more interest in our churches? ?"
No politics, Ell; no religion, eh? Ifnot,
what is meant by such declaration?-
Does the writer of the above think that
a majority of the people about Eaton are
asses, and have no knowledge of the
English language? The statement is
true, and there is an abundance of in
c%ontrovertible evidence to s~ubstantiate
that it is true. 1t was proclaimed at the
Court House, when the last Democrat
was lifted out of county Office, that the
next move would be against a Democrat,
ic School Superintendent. Do you dare
deny it? 1t was religious fanatics who
stepped up and fought Capt. Shawl
was politics that opposed Mr.. Withrow
for a second term-it is the two combin.
ed now against Mr.. Davis, The charge
that he is INCOMPETENT and INEFFICIENT
is a lie of whole cloth. He has in his
possession positive proof Of it's faIsity.-
Personally We don't care a fig who super.
intends u schools, but we despise re.
ligious or political bigotry and intole.
rance, come from whatever quarter il
may, and if permitted to control oul
school they might az well close up.
