THE 100000 GRAB EXPOSE
HURTS HIM,
He Attempts to Evade Responsibility
for His OfficiaI Acts.

He Attempts to Evade Responsibility
for His OfficiaI Acts.
Some time past this paper with others in
the district published with comments state
ment of the facts showing that Mr.. Booth
man, the Republican candidate of Congress,
wanted to get rid Of the surplus by employing
a clerk at the peoples expense. Only facts
were stated such as were published in the
Congressional Record. These facts are not
denied. Boothman did make a speech in
favor of measure TO give every member Of
Congress private secretary at the expense
Of $76 per month. and he said that his peo-
pie were not so stingy and penurious and
cheese-paring that they would object to this
little scheme. He confessed his inability to
attend to his Congressional duties without
the help of an expensive clerk.
We stated these facts, and commented on
them and submitted to the people of the
district the question whether they wanted to
hire and pay clerk $76 per month to do the
business they had elected Boothman to do.-
This was plain, honest discussion of an Of
fetal net. Now in answer to that, Boothman
writes an article from Washington and has it
published in the Republican papers charging
our candidate, Mr.. Saltzgaber, with "throw-
ing mud"
Mr.. Saltzgaber is not running this news
paper, and Mr.. Boothman can not escape re-
sponsibility for his official acts In that man
ner. He cannot befog the citizen and voter.
In his seat in the American Congress he
makes speech in which he says:
"My people impose on me too many
duties.
II am unable to perform all my work with
out help.
II must have q clerk at the peoples e1-
pense.
every other member of Congress should
have a clerk at public expense.
Each clerk should be paid S75 per month.
'If any one in my district objects he is
stingy; he is penurious; he is a cheese-parer."
Mr.. Boothman must face his own music,
and not crawfsh. We ask the people to pass
judgment on this official act He must take
the consequences of that act and can not
escape the just criticism for his official con-
duct. The question is, do our people COM
mend Boothman's act in voting private
clerk for himself at $75 per month? Reader
what do you say?-Van Vert Times.

a Until the Democrats of Luces county
can learn to conduct themselves decently in a
convention or caucus, the outside counties in
the district should give the Congressional
nomination to some good Democrat outside
of Toledo. The 10th district is Democratic,
but the Democrats cannot expect to be
victorious with such actions as occurred in
the Toledo caucuses last week. In union
there is certainly strength, but when the
elements are divided as they were there then
look out for chaos.

"a Democrats of old Monroe, we have
heard many good reports from you, but for
fear there should yet be some who are luke
warm in your midst, and for the purpose of
addressing our remarks to the balance of the
townships through you, we would urge the
Importance of the present campaign. The
contest is on. The Democratic party battling
for reduction of the war taxes and to equal
ize an unjust tariff, inasmuch as it favors the
rich to the detriment of the poor. The Re-
publican party on the other hand is battling
for its very life, for if it is vanquished now it
is its last campaign, and seeing its desperate
straight has boldly proclaimed for the robber
tariff and for free whisky and free tobacco
before an equalization of taxes shall be at
tempted. The Democratic party urging a
reduction of the surplus, which is nothing
more than taxes taken from the people, and
one hundred thousand million of dollars
year, which is piling up in the vaults at
Washington. The Republican party, on the
other hand, advocating that a surplus is
good thing, and determined to wiring the war
taxes from the people, whether the money is
needed or not.
The Democratic party through Mr.. Cleve-
land and the people, call halt The Repub-
lican party, through Jim Blaine and the rich
monopolist, says go on, we've struck pay
ing thing, let's hold on to it, the people have
no business to meddle with the thing, it is
our own private affair!
Thus, fellow Democrats of old Monroe, and
through you we speak to the Democrats of
the whole county, is the issue clearly defined.
Then gurd on the peoples armor, and let
there be no laggards this year, but let the
good old party come up in one solid phalaRx
and battle for the right-the election of
Cleveland and Thurman-which means tariff
reform, which means pure and economical
administration of the government, which
means the administration of laws for the
welfare of the whole people, not q privileged
class! Choose ye between the two sides.
