The Gazette gang have been trying to
form Democratic club of colored men.
If there are any colored men so lost to
all sense of honor a. to join the Democ.
racy when there is no earthly political
reason for the change, let them 60.
Everybody knows the incentive. The
sooner the Republican party is rid OF
such creatures, black and white, the
better for it. Let Brice take his Doodle
and his boodlers. There's enough man
hood and honor in the Republican party
to get along without the scoundrels who
must always be bought with price.
The Republican party stands for all that
is pure and honest in principle and
practice. We believe in square vote
and fair count. We believe in man.
hood and patriotism. In Pursuance OF
these ideas we have freed and enfran.
chised the slave, though it cost us rivers
of blood and mountains of treasure.
Now, if he wants to sell himself into
bondage again, let him 90 to the Bood
lers, Branson and Brice. We wouldn't
raise finger or whisper word or give
f, cent to stop him. For honorable colored
men we have the highest respect and re-
gard. But. for boodlers, black and " hite
we have no federation.

1t will be seen by our article on taxes
that the only considerable increases in

ships themselves. In State and county
the rates have remained about the same,
and expenditures have been reduced.

If he does, he must go into the town.

is an insult to every township trustee
The reflection falls on them, and nc

The News-Herald. [volume] (Hillsboro, Highland Co., Ohio) 1886-1973, 1895-10-31

Branson Brice is making howl that
he will lower taxes if elected. How
many Democratic promises have you
heard in the past Was ever one of
them fulfilled? Where could Branson
lower taxes? They have remained
the same under decreasing State
duplicate for years. Every branch OF
the State government is administered as
economically as possible. But, the bulk
of the taxes come from township levies.
Will Branson Brice take all the township
trustees by the throat and dictate what
they shall do? Branson Brice can not
control county taxes. And, if he could
control them, he couldn't make them
any lower. He couldn't. This tax howl
of Branson Brice is one of tho thinnest
shrieks put up in behalf of desperate
gang. Will you be deceived by such
Stiffness as that, into voting for Brice
and continuing his disastrous and
shameful free wool policy for six years
longer? Branson, the great "considerer," i"
evidently thinks you are fools. What
answer will you give him?

The Gazette gang intimates that john
Caldwell has been posing as an old sol.
der. They know this is a lie out of
whole cloth. They tried the same game
two years ago, when he came out in
print over his own signature and said he
was not an old soldier aud made no such
pretence. While John Caldwell respects
and reveres the defenders OF our Union,
it was not everybody who could go to
war. But he upheld the cause of the
Union. He didn't belong to the gang of
copperhead Knights of the Golden Cir
Gle who met in the Gazette Office and or.
ganized to resist the draft. His heart is
in the right place. He's an honest man,
and one of the very best Commissioners
the county ever had. 1t would be an
outrage for the people to set down on
such man at the dictation of the bood.
ling gang who run the copperhead sheet
of Highland county.

o. K. Hixson and D. E. Grove, of
Dallas, deny the report of wanton de.
struction of property at that place. The
old house which was torn down was
about to be occupied by parties distaste-
full to the neighbors and the owner.
The latter, Mrs. Chas. Pauley, an aged
ladv, asked the men to tear it down,
offering to pay them for their work.
They soon had the old structure leveled,
and took nothing for their services.
That's all there was in it.

Sam Withrow, in addition to his re.
pair trade, is making number of fine
shoes to order. This reminds us of old
times, before the days of machine made
shoes, when every man had his favorite
shoe maker, as he now has his favorite
barber, and city like Hillsboro, would
support dozen shoe shops, with several
skilled artisans in each, and all making
good wages. The introduction of ma
chine goods has undoubtedly lowered
the cost of boots and shoes, but there
can hardly be question but it has also
lowered the quality. There are many
who begin to realize that the foot wear
turned out by the skilled veterans who
learned their art in antebellum days is
fully worth every cent it costs.
