that large uncalled for expensive,

IN the Register and Recorders offict

fat, sick Chairman of the Republi,

This ought not so to be.
If the Democrat and Register had ia
ken an old advice, such as, 'look be
fore you leap, it would never have
published the above, for it has leap
ed to place upon which it cannot
stand 1t occupies a false position
from which to denounce Caveny and
Irwin. The fact is, it does not kick
Caveny and Irwin, but kicks other peo
pie. Peop.e who were instrumental
in having new record placed in the
Register and Recorders office. Cav
eny and Irwin had nothing TO do with
the introduction of the new record
in the Registers Office. 1t was the
lawyers and the Court that caused
the introduction of the new record,
the writing Of which the Democrat and
Register STYLES as "G large an called
for e-Psnsire contract" '.for additional
unnecessary Trtting." Ii Caveny and
Irwin lad been the cause of the new
docket having been obtained, then
there might be a shadow of cause
for the defamatory writing that the
editors have indulged in, but the pc
ople vho have caused the writing
and work that the Democrat and Reg
sster complains OF. are the following
lawyers Ezra d. Parker, Louis E.
Atkinson, Robert McA1een, George
Jacob, Jacob Beidler, Jeremiah Ly-
ons. 1t was on account of the law
yers' petition that the Court ordered
the new record for the Office of the
Register and Recorder, and they are
the people that the Democrat and Reg
,Ster is kicking. When the Court is
sued the order for the new docket,
Caveny had only one thing TO do,
and that was to obtain the books and
secure help to transcribe them, he
deemed it proper to secure the ser
vice of Mr.. Irwin, who is abundantly
qualified for such work as help. Cav
eny did not have the selection of the
books, for the lawyers petition set
forth that Hutter's system of books,
should be placed in the Office. 1t is
not probable that the Democrat and
Register is engaged in the willful eff
ort to keep Caveny in Office. Its mis-
representation of Caveny is making
him votes. We have not one word
to say against Mr.. Berry. The mis-
representation that his friends resort
to, cannot fail of destroying him in
his own political household. When
lawyers, Ezra D. Parker, Louis E.
Atkinson, Robert McA1een, George
Jacobs, Jacob Beidler, and Jeremiah
Lyons, on petition secured decree
of Court for a new docket for the
Registers Office there were two things
that Cayeny could do. First, to re-
fuse to heed the decree of the Court,
and be punished for contempt. Sec
ond, to secure the docket, obtain
help and have it transcribed, which
is now being done. When these facts
become known through this issue of
The SENTINEL AND REPUBLIcAS, will
the Democrat and Register correct
their unjust abuse OF Caveny and 1r
w;n7 1t is probable that the adopt
ion of the new docket will prove it
self a great convenience in the look
ing up of titles and so forth, but
whether it be worthy or unworthy
the Democrat believes it to be a Job
Caveny had DO more to do with its
introduction, than 1.-The man in the
moon" and instead of censuring him
the censure should be put where it
beloDgs-on the lawyers. Such are
the bottom facts. A few more such
unjust blows at Caveny, will knock
Mr.. Berry clear out of the race, and
secure Cavenys election by large
majority. The Tribune comes in with
the chorus, to swell the denunciation
OF the Democrat ana Register against
Caveny and Irwin, for working at
new indexes. 1t says, the new rec
ord system was introduced or
drought in opposition to the wishes
of the County Commissioners That
is a question for the Tribune and the
Commissioners to settle among them
selves, and does not effect the bot
tom fact that Caveny and Irwin had
nothing to do with the introduction
of the new docket. They should not
be charged with acts that they are
innocent of, for the purpose Of elect
ing Mr.. Berry. The probability is
that Mr.. Berry deplores the use of
such outrageous Misrepresentation,
