W. C. Gould, Stand Up.

Mr.. Gould, in the Herald last week,
advised the people to go to'the county
offices and examine the books and
records, and see # all is right. Hav-
ing studied bookkeeping many years
ago, and having kept a set Of books
for firm doing large business for
several years, we felt competent to
judge the matter to some extent.
In the Auditors Office, we found
the books in fine condition, the hand
writing being almost as plain as the
old copperplate which was used as
copies in school fifty years ago. But
we found some strange entries-al-
most as strange as the slip found in
the safe in the TIeasurer's Office after
Keenan, had abscepded, with the
words "W. c. Gould $780, ON it. On
pages So and 81 of tax duplicate
book, we find that w. C. Gould is
charged with 1888 taxes for the
half-year ending December 20, 1888,
and the same amount due June the
20, 1884, neither Of sqAick las been
paid. These two sums amount to
$3906. Then these unpaid taxes are
transferred into book called 'Delin-
quent Chattel Duplicate" >" page 80,
and penalty Of ten per cent. is added,
under the Statute. This penalty is
put down at 1891. Phis, added to
the S39.O6 will make $4297 which
this sweet-scented reformer owes the
taxpayers, in addition to other sums,
Of which we may speak at another
time.
Honest Democrats, what do you
think of the editor Of your party
organ?
We have word to say to the new
Democratic TreasgreF: We believe
Mr.. Reiuiger Is an honest man, who
will do his duty, IF we are not mis-
taken, Sections 1904 and 1905 Of the
Revised Statutes make it the duty Of
the Treasurer in such cases to levy at
once upon the personal property Of
such delinquents, and sail it, and
make the taxes out Of such property
Mr.. Reiniger owes it to himself, to
the honest men in his party, and te
the honest men Of all parties, who pay
their taxes, to farce this bowling old
fraud to pay his taxes.

The RObinsOn.JOnes Meeting.

The meeting at the Court House ON
last Wednesday night was one of the
best politica. meetings ever held here.
The Silver Cornet Band called the
people together, the Glee Club dis
coursed some excellent music in the
Court House, and in a short time
there was no standing room.
Hon. HI. S. Bundy was selected as
chairman of the meeting, and intro
duced Gen. J. S. Robinson who made
a nlss;;n, practical speech, bristling
with facts, Il. G. Jones was then
introduced, and spoke at considerable
length, making one of his happiest
efforts, keeping the large audience in
excellent humor, at the same time
making telling points against the
Democracy. At the conclusion OF
Mr.. Jones' speech Gen. Hurst, who
happened in, was called on by the
crowd and made ringing little speech
1t was a grand meeting.

Blaine is to be in Ohio next week.
He will, Of course, in his special pal
ace car, take ride down the Hooking
Valley to see how his freshly import
ed cheap foreign contract pauper
miners are coming on, and will also
take look at his recently displaced
American miners. who, with their
families, are lighting Starvation
%aNsspiise sSgna9:
Why didn't you tell it all, and say
that he will take look at the we'll
fed soldiers who are kept in the Val
ley, by Democrats, to shoot down
these displaced miners. Mr.. Blaine
owns no mines in the Valley, but the
Democratic party claim to own the
miners, and pronounce this ultimatum
to them: Submit, or Be ShotY'

The North American Review for
October is notable as well for the i'm
portance Of the topics treated, as for
the eminence of its writers. The
leading article, moral Character in
Politics, is by President ]. HI. Seelye,
whose exposition Of the ethical prin-
ciples involved in the popular election
of candidates to high station in the
Government must command the at
tention Of every right-minded citizen.

sequel to the article in the September
number on the Evils of the Tariff
System" is symposium consisting
of three articles, written respectively
by John Roach, Prof. r. E. Thomp-
son, and Nelson Dingley, Jr., who
advocate the policy Of protection of
American industries with great in
genuity Of reasoning and abundant
citations Of of statistical facts.
In addition to these most timely dis
cussions Of high political issues, the
Review has an article by the Rev. DIR.
Augustus Jessop, entitled why l
Wish to Visit America;" "The Phi
losophy of Conversion" by o. B.

All weakness and ill health owes its
origin to an impure state of the blood
and weakness of the urinary and di-
gestive organs. A medicine that will
strengthen these organs, and at the
same time purify the blood, will assist
nature in curing nearly every disease
that human flesh and blood IS heir to.
Such "a remedy is DR.. Guysott's Yellow
Dock and SarsapArilla, and, although
it possesses no cathartic or diuretic
effect, It's use will soon establish q
regular habit of body as well as cure
weakness of the kidneys, indicated by
urinary sediments, nervousness, etc.

The wool growers Of Ohio, who de-
mand their industry shall be protected
and fostered by suitable tariff legisla-
ton, will best secure this end by vot-
ing with the Republican Party. They
have abundant reason for knowing
that, on this subject, they cannot
safely trust the Democratic Party.
The predominant power in that party
is made up Of the free trade element

Marching To Victory!

The Grand Old Republican Party is
marching to victory. All along the
line the camp-fres are glimmering.
the banners are waving, the music is
ringing. The campaign is becoming
active and aggressive in Ohio, on the
part of the Republicans, and every
where the people are becoming en-
thusiastic in the work. There is a
solemn duty devolving upon every in
dividual voter i'll this campaign-the
duty of going to the polls on election
day and voting the straight Republi-
can ticket. We say eUery voter, be-
cause it is the duty Of the Democrat
to vote the Republican ticket, if he
has any regard for his own interests.
The duty also devolves upon every
Republican voter, of seeing to it that
the polls are jealously guarded, and to
use all honorable means to induce his
Democratic friend to vote against the
recognized champion Of Free Trade,
the Democratic party.
Let every Republican be earnest,
enthusiastic, and thorough in this
work from now until six o'clock on
the evening Of October 14th, and the
result will be an overwhelming defeat
of the Democracy, and glorious vic
tory for Blaine Logan and Robinson.
A success in Ohio in October will have
great weight with other States at the
November election. Let Republicans
everywhere strive to make Robinson s
majority glorious one.

To the Editors of the Standard:
This being very pleasant day, |
will give the readers Of the STANDARD
few brief notes of this vicinity, as l
have seen nothing through the col
umns of your valuable paper from
this part. Our crops are good this
year. Corn injured some by the
Chintz bugs. am glad to see through
the Standard that my old native
County is wide awake for Blaine and
Logan. | am sorry to say that the
Democrats have the majority in this
County. But think the time won't
be long until the Republicans will
have the majority. 1t is settling up
with intelligent men from the East,
and men that mean business. You
will find enclosed one dollar for which

"A remedy that has proven itself a
never-failing cure for scrofula and all
syphilitic disorders must quickly cure
less terrible blood diseases. DIR. Guy
sott's Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla is
such a perfect blood purifier and
strengthener of bodily functions, that
it cures the above diseases even when
Hot Springs and all other treatment
has failed. Remember, it is absolutely
free from mineral polsons, and will
not injure the most delicate constitu-
tion. Its use will make you feel
buoyant, strong and well, and will rid
your system of all blood impurities and
every internal and external indication

the girl of the period is unjust. A

1t is reported that the Cleveland
managers in this state are trying to
trump up some sort of bargain with
the "Stalwarts," as the means of in
creasing the chances of their disgraced
and virtually defeated candidate.
Such an effort is confession of weak
ness. The simple fact is that the
Cleveland stock has gone down great
many points since his private charac-
ter became known to the people.-N.

During the present campaign Gould
has charged in the Herald perhaps a
dozen times that we owe Chris.
Bertsch for bread and whisky. It is
every word a lie. We do not owe
Bertsch cent, for anything, and we
dare Gould to get Bertsch to say so,
and sign his name to it. But suppose
we do owe Bertsch, or any other man !;
what is that any of Gould's business?
Mr.. Bertsch knows very we'll that if
we owe him, all he has to do is to drop
his bill in the Postofice, next door to
him, and his bill will be promptly
paid.
Now let us see how Mr.. Gould will
relish small dose of his own medi-
dine. (And we have a good many
more such doses salted down, to be
used if Mr.. Gould desires to keep up
this kind Of warfare
Formerly VIM. F. Scott kept drug
store in Jackson. He made many
bad debts, and became embarrassed,
and his father Ambrose Scott Esq
indorsed for him, and was sued in
Court, and judgments for several hun
dred dollars against him. In order to
do all he could to secure his father,
William turned over to the old man
his stock Of goods and book accou nts,
aud the old gentleman took possession
of the store, In person. Mr.. Scott
told US that Gould came in one day
and picked up box of cigars and
started to go out with it, saying
that he would pay for it shortly.
mo you won't" said Scott, "You will
pay what you now owe, and then pay
for the cigars, before you can get
them. BY Bill trusting such men as
you, is what has got US both into this
trouble
He said Gould reluctantly put down
the box and sneaked out.
AS Gould is so worried about our
imaginary bread and whisky bills, we
thought it was due to him to see what
it was be owed Scott for, and, on last
Friday, by little strategy, we got
one OF Scott's account books. 1t is his
last book, the one prior to the last of
December, 1881, being in the country.
In this one book we found on page
10, the following entries:
