A good deal of demagogy is being
in3nlged in by the Democratic politi
clans, in their appeals for votes.
Now, we have this to suggest to every
coal miner, and every workingman OF
whatsoever description: Whenever a
Democratic politician begins to spout
to you about your own interests, and
assumes to know all about the inter
ests of labor, just ask him when and
where he ever did any work. Do not
take our word for it, but investigate
for yourselves, and you will find that
these same fellows have been trying
for years, to deceive voters who are
more intelligent than themselves.
Ask them where they learned so much
about laboring matters.

Cleveland to Beecher !!

Oh, Beecher, dear Beecher come home 20 II now,
The clock of misfortune strikes one,
Gou said you would give me your earnest support,
On account of the work have done:
Maria is gone-the house is all cold,
My domestic affairs all at sea,
Oh, Henry, dear Henry. there's none but yourself
Can sympathize fully with me.
Come home, come home, come home.
Dear Beecher sweet Beecher, come home
Oh Beecher dear Beecher, come home to me now,
The clock of misfortune strikes two,
The day of affi ictiOn comes on me apace-
My life appeals strongly to YOU.
The Asylum has kindly opened its door
And Maria was ushered within,
But nought in the earth-you know ityourself-
Can cover the traces of sin
Come home. come home come home,
Please Beecher, dear Beecher, come home.
The clock of misfortune strikes three;
'Tis hard to induce the cold world to believe
In the virtue of you and of me.
But we'll join misfortunes, and trust to cheel
In our efforts to cancel our shame,
As martyrs We'll look the whole world in the face,
And lay on the women the blame.
Come home, come home, come home,
Please Beecher, dear Beecher, come home.

"The Democratic party is in favor
of pensioning the Rebel soldiers "
1t is only necessary to say that
Mackley's Standard publishes this lie
toinsure its lack Of influence "-Ports-
mouth Times.
This is not told for the purpose of
influencing anybody. 1t is told as a
cold, hard, indisputable fact. If you
ever get in condition where you can
read the Democratic platform, Mr..
Cooper, get it and read it, and
even poor simple creature like you
can understand that the Democratic
party is in favor Of pensioning the trail
tors who were injured In health while
engaged in trying to kill Union soldiers
and destroy the Government. The
Democratic platform leaves no doubt
Of the truth Of what we say.

ha Ever since the Maria Halpin scan
dal, the New York Democrats have
been trying to counteract its effect
upon Cleveland's candidacy, in various
ways. lie they could bribe the woman
to deny it, that would give them some
hope. But not succeeding in this
at least until too late to make such
denial available, they have tried to
silence the whole matter by inducing
the woman to disappear from the
town of New Rochelle N. Y, where
she was residing.

ThiSiSnOta Dun.

We want every one of our sub
scribers to look at the date on the
little slip Of buff paper ON his or
her Standard. That will show the
date to which each has paid.
We have the best paying subscribers
of any county paper in the State.
This is not fattery, or boastipg. The
list of payments published each week
proves the truth Of this. On Monday
we looked at each paper published
this year, and we find that during the
seven months from January 1, 1884,
to July 81, 1884, We received on sub
scription S823. %. This is s11T.6O
per month, or 81 411.20 per year.
Now the average circulation OF the
Standard during that period has been
1853. This leave 245 who have not
paid.
NJ '-ak at that little paper, and
if the date is any time ' '" -
IA. 1884, you are one Of that 245, g..
you ought to send US some money.
But this is not dun, and we be-
lieve that of this 245, at least 200 will
pay before the end of the year.
And so mote it be.

1t is subject of boasting among
our little corner-grocery Democratic
politicians that they will make nomi-
nation for Sheriff which will carry the
workingmen in body over to the
Democratic Free Trade party. As
usual, these Democrats assume that
the workingmen are like so many cat
tie, to be led around by the noses,
Let the workingmen, and Republicans
everywhere see to it that these fellows
get rebuke in October which will be
of lasting benefit to them.

No Excitement.

Many persons have inquired of us
whether we think the political campaign
this fall will be one of much excitement.
Our answer is that we think not. The
most excitement now is, who shall sell
the most goods in Jackson. There are
many fine stores in Jackson, and ii you
want to know who are the live men, who
want to sell goods, and keep things moY-
ing, look at the advertisements in the
Standard.
Among the men who desire TO turn
their capital often, by selling goods at
a very small profit, you will find Oliver
S. Miller in the front.
Store room opposite the Court House.
The Jackson standard. [volume] (Jackson C.H., Ohio) 1847-1888, 1884-08-14
Costs too Much.

1t costs something to advertise. Every
week this year we have called attention
to the great grocery and provision Store
of d. d. DUNCAN, between the lsham
result is that Mr.. DUNCAN has to go to
the expense of an additional building.
He already has one of the most extensive
rooms in jackson, with large cellar;
but his business has so increased that
now he has men at work putting up an
additional building, extending back to
his coal house, near the alley.
1t is ever thus with business men and
firms who advertise in the Standard. 1t
will increase the business.

A bill was passed by the New York
Legislature, in the interest Of the
poor working people, making the fare
on street railroads in New York City
five cents instead of ten. When the
bill was presented to Governor Cleve-
land for his signature, he vetoed it.
The Democratic party is the eager
tool Of monopolies, and the oppressor
of the poor. Do not take the state
ment of any newspaper for this, but
study the history Of the party to find
the truth of the assertion.

Horatio c. King, of Brooklyn, who
investigated" the Cleveland scandal
for Mr.. Beecher, is perhaps the only
man in the United States who would
have the courage to get up and tell
the people Of the United States that
Cleveland acknowledged the paternity
of Maria Halpin's child in order to
shield some married man-who was
the real guilty party-and thus pro-
tect the good name Of his friends
family.

WOODBURY., Ia, August 9, 1884.

To the Editors of the Standard:
Iowa is full Of politics, but it is all
one way. Blaine and Logan are the
watchword of the people of the West.
They will sweep the State like a
''syclone," Iowa will come to the
front this year with $4,000 majority
for the ''Plumed Knight" and the
BLACK Eagle"
Crops are good, the weather is beau
tiful, and prospects for an old-fash-
ioned boom is OH hands.
The health Of the people is good.
Taking it all together, this is Re-

''gavel" and sound the call to victory.

On last Friday Mlllie Owens, an
old colored lady, died at Paris, KY
There was not so much remarkable
about her dying as there was about
her living. She is said to have been
born in 1774, which would make her
10 years old at the time of her death
She was of course a personal friend Of
General Washington, and an acquaint-
ance and admirer of LAFAYETTE.
