The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1883-11-01

The Democratic party is that OF
the nenp!e, always legislating in
favo: Of the common interests OF
the people. During the past year
the Republican Congress raised over
$4O2, 000,O 900 from the people, over
$500, 10000 of which still lies idle
and unused in the Treasury. In
contrast with this the policy of the
Democratic party has always been
to take no more from the people than
was absolutely needed to carry on
the government; this policy Of the
Republican party, with $3.50, 900, 900
in the Treasury, is ruinous to free
government; it is a standing tempta-
ton to corruption and dishonesty.
Because of the presence of this vast
amount.of money in the Treasury, a
system of extravaganza and robbery
has been inaugurated. Eighteen
million dollars a appropriated for
river and harbor improvements,
twice as much "a was ever a~ppropria,
ted for such a purpose in any one
year before. And thus it runs all
through Republican legislation.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1883-11-01

The Pennsylvania railroad has
erected a building in Philadelphia,
for the use of men in their employ,
which is described as q neat build
ing costing 10000 and a complete
refuge for men who are off duty OF
away from home. 1t contains hot
and cold wafer for baths, a smoking
room where checkers and dominoes
are furnished, but other games are
prohibited. A reading room is well
supplied with newspapers and mag
azines and a library of fiction, his
tory, biography, and religion. Or
the third floor is a large room fitted
up with cots where the men can
sleep an hour or more if the time is
at their disposal. No charge i:
made by the company, and the man
ayers says the building is a good il
yentment.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1883-11-01

1t is, perhaps, the most significant
fact in the late election that the
Democrats made gains generally
through the country precincts.
Everybody knows that the county
vote is very slow to change and when
gains are made there by either party
they stick. Close observers will have
noticed that there has been a steady
drift throughout the country from
the Republican to the Democratic
party for years and it has continued
until the state is now Democratic
substantially outside of the cities.
The cities are liable to sudden
changes. They may go Democratic
heavily one year, and as heavily Re-
publican the next. But the political
tide in the country flows steadily in
one direction for a long time. 1t is
this tide that has borne the Demo
cratic party into power in Ohio.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1883-11-01

A New York attorney tells q re-
porter how he looked up the title to
some real estate in that city, upon
which Mrs. Langtry desires to ad-
vance loans on mortgage-the
search being satisfactory. and Mrs.
Langtry handing over a check for
$S1 900, and receiving her mortgage
collateral. The money was expend-
ed IS follows: Forty five thousand
dollars on a stone house in Fifty
third street, between Fifth and Sixth
avenues; $4,000 on a stone building
on Eighth avenue, near Thirtieth
street, and 10000 on another on the
same avenue, a little below Seventy
fourth street. The papers are re.
corded in the name of Emile Char.
lotte Langtry, Island of Jersey. The
Lily made a handsome spec by com.
ing over here.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1883-11-01

Republicanism had 1859 major
ity in Ohio the year before the presi-
Dental election in 1856; it had 49,
236 majority the year before the pres
idential election in 1860; it had 101,-
O99 majority the year before the
presidential election in 1864; it had
1888 majority the year before the
presidential election in 1868; it had
20,16S majority the year before the
presidential election in 1872; it had
5,544 majority the year before the
presidential election in 1876; it had
1923 majority the year before the
presidential election of 1880. And
now in the year preceding the presi-
Dental election of 1884 it is beaten
about 10000 on the highest vote ever
polled in the state. The Republican
party must go!
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1883-11-01

Two years ago Iowa gave $4,000
Republican majority. This year the
Republican candidate for Governor
scrapes through by a very few thou
sands, a Democratic Congressman
is elected, and the Democrats get
the largest represent; ton they have
ever had in the Legislature. The
Republicans have been shaken even
in their Gibralter. One more such
change and the Democracy will take
the citadel.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1883-11-01

The two causes which most con-
tributed to defeat the republicans
were, first, the prohibitionists voting
for their own state ticket; and,
second, the woolgrowing counties re-
sisting the reduced tariff on wool.
Strange as it may appear, thousands
of republican w~oolgrowers voted
squarely for the democrats because
senator Sherman and the republican
congressman from Ohio voted for
reduced protection on wool, while
Senator Peudleton and the demo
cratic congressman voted against
the new tariff, and the democratic
gains in the woolgrowing regions
startled both parties. In every wool,
growing county the democrats gain
ed on their vote of last year, and in
some districts very largely.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1883-11-01

In the spring of 1880 the ground
upon which Albuquerque, New Mex
leo, now stands was a marsh inter-
sected by irrigating bitches. To-day
there stands on this ground a bust
ling city of over 5000 people. 1t is
in Bernalillo county, about $50 miles
from Kansas City, and is the eastern
terminus at the Atlantic and Pacific
railroad. The city is named in honor
of the Duke of Albuquerque, situated
about one mile and a half distant,
was one of the early Spanish settle
ments. The proper pronunciation is
Albukeakay, but the natives and the
people of this part of the country call
it Albukirk. No town in the West,
except Leadville, has developed more
rapidity. The county has ,O00,O DOC
sheep, and in 1882 Albuquerque
shipped $500, 900 pounds of wool.

Germantown Press.

The Eaton Democrat contained
ten well developed roosters last
week-one of them the boss cock of
the entire brood. Well, if there is a
paper in the state which has a right
to rejoice over the late election, it is
the Eaton Democrat. For years it
has been bravely fighting corruption
and ring rule, and at last it is sue.
cessful. Every honest nan in Preble
County, without regard to political
utilization, should give his hearty
support 10 the Democrat.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1883-11-01

The Democratic party has had a
wholesale influence in shaping pub
lie policy and restraining the Re
publican majority. 1t has forced ex-
posures of rings and frauds, although
so long as the Republican party was
10 power it could not prevent the
growth of new ones, nor punish
those exposed. 1t was the sole bull
wark against termism and "the maj
| on horseback"
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1883-11-01

The Republicans cannot claim that
their defeat in the state was the re-
suit of Indifference or apathy. They
cannot lay it to the stay-at-homes.
The fact stands forth prominently
that the Republican vote was out to
the last man. They polled more votes
than they ever polled before. They
made the most strenuous exertions
they ever made. They voted every
vote they had in the state, and were
aided by the second amendment
workers. Nevertheless they lost. 1t
was a desperate battle between the
two parties in which each side did
its very best and the Republicans
were beaten. 1t was a square stand
up and knock down fight, and it is
the Republican party that is down.
All this goes to show that the rule o
the Republican party N Ohio is 8
thing of the past.

Dayton Herald, (Ind.)

The most singular phase of the
election is indicated in the following
dispatch from Preble county:
The vote in Preble county was a
considerable of an increase over last
year. Washington township polled
LII votes, the largest eve given.
Total vote in the county was 5,67O,
and although the day was fine and
the vote was an increase the Repub-
licans were showed under on the
county ticket, and fell short on the
State ticket. The Democrats car,
ried the entire county ticket save for
Representative and Infirmary Direc,
tor. Foraker had 1S2 majority:
Knaub for State Senator, 1872; Shep-
pard, for Representative SO. The
result was unexpected and can't be
explained.

The party that stole the Presidency
in 1876, that bought the Presidency
for Garfield in 1880 Gas fully describ-
ed by his friend Dorsey, and as HUI
morously referred to by MI. Arthur
at the Dorsey banquet,) is not going
to conquer in 1884 by stealing Demo
cratic States through the stale and
odious device of forcible control of
the polls. 1t has lost it's grip all over
the North. Even in it's strongholds
il has been routed. The people have
risen up in their might to condemn it.
1t MUST go.

There will be 800 members in the

95 they had in the last House; the

There are two features in the vote
of the last election that are worthy
of the congratulation of every Dem
ocrat in the State. The first is that
the Democratic party carried the
State on a large vote. For twenty
five years before, whenever the Dem
ocrats carried the State it was on a
light vote, and it was always claim
ed, as an excuse, that the Republi.
cans failed to get out their votes, it
vas not sc this year. We carried it
on a large vote. Ohio is therefore
a Democratic State. The second
point in the victory is, it is the re.
suit of the country vote. Last year
there was large gains in the cities
This year most of that vote went
