Our article on Thomas Jefferson In
the DAILY DEMOCRAT Of the 10th inst,
and In the WEEKLY DEMOCRAT of the
l2th, has attracted the attention OF our
excellent friend, E, r. Speaker, Esq, of
Beach City, and we received from him
the following approving letter on satur'
day last:
BEACH CITY, O., June II, 1884,
A. MoGREGoR:--I have received the
DEMOCRAT containing your essay on the
character Of Jefferson, and | am pleased
with H. enclose % cents, for which
please send me extra copies TO send to
some of my friends, / have on several
0 ,casions defended the character OF
Jefferson from what ! believed TO be
false imputatl0na and about two years
ago some OF my friends asked me 10 pre-
pare q paper after the manner OF yours
for the benefit OF a small reading club
That existed In Beach at that time, On
casting about for material found did
not have II In an available shape; much
of what knew had been taught TO me
orally by father rs a part OF my political
education and could not be written as
Ihe exact language Of tho great founder
n Democracy. Your article fully sua
lains all the assertions ever made as
regards his ability, moral character and
religious belief. u, Il, SPEAKER,
We have complied with our friends
request and forwarded TO him several
'oples Of the paper containing the
article, we shall print II In pamphlet
form so that any Of our friends who
may desire the article In convenient
shape can be accommodated.
We have long known that Thomas
Jefferson was not understood nor ap'
preciated that his eminent services and
unsellsh patriotism were not only
largely forgotten, but revival Of late
years Of the old Federal, Tory, spite and
malice has been observable, We have
recently read book In which the author
seeks tO prove that Mr., Jefferson was
not the author Of the Declaration Of In
dependence. This writer seems to be
iully persuaded In his own mind, though
he adduces not one single proven fact,
Indeed the man this writer names as
the author Of the Declaration never
claimed II, and no one Of that period OF
The revolution ever doubted Thomas
Jefferson as the author, All this only
shows how lasting are the fangs Of
faction, and how the malice Of political
venom will survive.

A DEAD MAN RESPONSIBLE.


II seems In the City Council last even
ing on the occasion of getting the City
Hall building accepted, Architect Weary
let himself out on the Central Engine
building, and said the man responsible
for the "mlstake" and who caused the
defects" was q workman, Edward
Schultz, who was killed by falling from
the City Hall building last summer.
MIR, Weary ought to be ashamed TO
proclaim In public this contemplate
aubterIuge; TO defame dead man and
10 shift responsibility from where II be-
longs, This Is anew dodge Of the genius
Of the ring and worthy Of his lofty
soul, We had better opinion OF Mr.,
Weary than to suppose he would lend
himself to such piece Of business. Mr.,
Schultz was not the contractor, was In
no way the responsible man, though he
may have been an under boss, Nothing
Of this kind was thought Of when some
time back we were demanding from
Messrs, Shields and Bawcett of the
Building Committee who were responsl
bic for the fraud upon the good city Of
Canton.
At this late day II will not do for Mr.,
Weary, as the poor tool OF the ring, to
come forward and lay the blame on the
dead, II Is "too thin" and too meanly
contemplate. II may be eminently
worthy Of a man who Ia the acceptable
uagnate for the Republican party In
our City Council, and wants to be also
one Of the magnates to run the Demo.
cratic party In the county and statel
We are told "Ye cannot serve two
masters" but here Is remarkable ex
ceptlon, The dead man dodge ls the
last, but not the least, specimen Of the
contemplate tricks Of the city rlngl
We refer our readers to the report OF
the Council proceedings last evening In
another part Of this paper.
