0Eo, WILLIAM CURTIS, OF Harpor's
Weekly, ia out Ia u very savage speech
against the Harrison administration
on account OF its constant violations or

demning President Harrison were In,
trOduced by a leading and distinguished

Now that IL has been clearly estab'
lished that Gov, Fornker's battle record
10 not worth mentioning, story if
started that he did great work NJ the
Siege Of Savannah The following is
the brilliant, heroic tale:
"During some time 'herce light
has been beating upon Gov. Foraker
and the leading Incidents Of bis life
have been familiar 10 the public, and
yet few friends or foes have remem.
bered that he was the young officer
who when sherman marched down ~
tho sea and captured Savannah, was
sent by him In canoe down the river
that was swarming with torpedOes, 10
give the news to the leet. IL was Cap
tain Foraker who made that adyentur.
Gus and historical voyage, and dis.
charged tho periouB duty that demand
cd ut once the clearest intelligerce and
the coolest courage"
And now comes Gen Beatty OF Co
lumbuB, who is conceded TO be n soldier
with a splendid 6ghtlDg record, and a
man who would do no injuStioe 70 an.
other old soldier who knocks this he.
roic story all into a cooked hat
Gen. Beatty does this eifoctuhllv by
printing tho official report Oi Gen,
Sherman on the capture Of Savannah
Sherman's official report shows that
the first news he had OF the feet was
after the attack on Fort MoAllister, In
front Of Savannah WAS made, lie says
"As soon as | saw our colors fairly
planted upon the walls Of Fort McAl'
lister, In company with Gen. Howard
went In u small boat down to tue fort
and met Gen Hazen who had not yei
communicated with the gun boat below
as II WAS shut out 10 him by q point OF
timber. Determined TO communicate
that night, / got another small boat ant
n crew, and pulled down the river till
found the tug Dandeliop, Capt. WI

This shows that Gen. Sherman 10 tht
man who brayed the torpedoes Of the

1T seems impossible for the Canton
Evening Rep TO tell the truth or state
proposition fairly, when In the discus
sion 0f any political question. This 40
called organ has latoly been trying TO
discuss the new Registration law. The
state of It's alleged mind Oppeara to DO
quito confused on question OF local
geography. II does not pretend To
know the difference between the city OF
Hamilton and Hamilton county. II
seems to think that James u. Campbell
lives In Hamilton county. or else II
don't know the difference between the
city of Hamilton In Butler county and
tho city Of Cincinnati In Hamilton
county. The Democrats Of the city OF
Cincinnati were In favor Of u Regis;ra'
ton law for that city, because II was on
tho Ohio river, aud just acsOss that river
on the Kentucky side are large mum
bor OF colored Republicans, and these
colored Republicans have In times past
been voted largely In Cincinnati by the
Republicans, for pay. Now the reasons
for a Ragistration law for Cincinnati,
do not apply TO citeo like Hamilton,
Canton, Mansfield, GAINESVILLE, all inte'
rlor cities, with a fixed and definitely
known population. Every citizen, who
thinks, knows this.

farmers Of the country would be al.
most unrepresented at Washington.
We must change the drift OF things u
we would see our people enjoy the

wrong. Ifhalf OF our ambitious young
men who are living in shabby gem

and energy into farming our country
districts would soon become thickly
settled, and, with well titled farms,
comfortable modern cottages, and
good roads, life outside OF the towns
would be in every way superior TO the
mode Of existence found within the
walls Of our crowded cities. The towns
do not need an infux Of population
from the country, but the country
needs lot OF town people 20 take hold
OF the farms and produce something.
