THE OHIO DEMOCRAT FRIDAY 49, 1893
Not scnrcd
Is John McGomery, Who Received a
White Cap Notice.

WI JOhu WV 'tlefy, living HuTtu
of Logan gave us the copy OF an
ANONYMOUS letter which he receiv
ed few weeks ago and Of which
he says he is not scared. The let
ter Is as follows:
REGULATOR NO. I.
MIR. John MrGomery-Sir:-We
have had Il detective on your trail
frr some time and find you have
been abusing your family. We
viii pay you visit soon and regu
late you. Your doom is sealed aud
your gruvs is staked off. Beware.
Regulator No.
Mr.. MtGomery las played the
roll Of d .teclive ever since he re
ceived the letter and has done re.
markably well. He first noticed
that the address on the envelope
was IL different and more perfect
hand writing than the contents of
the letter, and he at once proceed
cd to investigate who addressed
the envelope. He laid the hand
writing before the post-oflice clerks
and at the banks but none seemed
to recognize the writing. They
sent him on wild go ,se chases, but
each time he learned a little more,
and at last laid the envelope before
deputy auditor VIM. Toule and
asked him whose writing that was.
Toole said it was his, that he had
addressed the envelope for Com
missioner Cart Webb. This was Il
hot trail. McGomery braced MIR.
Webb with the letter and at first
he denied having anything to do
with it, and then admitted that he
had the envelope addressed for a
fellow whom he did not know. The
case is causing no little comment
IN the country aud McGomery says
he will force the thing to an end
and bring the guilty cuss that
wrote the letter to justice. The
writing of such letter is serious
matter with the United States
postal authorities. 1t Is no boys
play and Mr.. McGonery says he
will make some people sweat.

grenter part of their time since the
closing days of September last to the
struggle to holding on to their lucra-
tive positions. Day as we'll as night
has found them during that time run
ming from place to place all over the
city in the effort, by purchase or hum
bug. to secure a majority of the vot-
ers. City officials, as well as county,
state, nS we'll as national officials,
have all contributed lavishly of the
peoples time as we'll as money. No
gang candidate can now hold any po-
sition, either humble or exalted, I'M
less he is willing and able to engage
actively in the scuff1e to get votes for
the party machine. Not a dollar less
than 100000 of public money is repre-
sented in the extent of time and labor

has been deprived for the last six
weeks.
DOODLE CAMPAIGN.
Even the candidates for the Judicial
ry have been obliged to contribute
their share to getting votes through
the most degrading labors that fall to
the Office seeker. 1t has been essen
TALLY a Doodle campaign; and It has
been made all the more strongly so
by reason Of the general revolt which
has been in progress against the low
methods which distinguished all who
were successful in the scramble in that
scandalous convention at Market hall.
Then again treachery and selfishness.
which come to the surface in all strug-
giles such as this. have been on the Re
publican side, have caused several can
didates to do all in their power for
themselves to the detrilnent Of others
running on the same ticket with them.
The effort to overcome the moral effect
of all this has rendered the struggle
of the office holding combine a mere
matter of a buying and selling to
great extent.
A great share of this burden has
necessarily fallen on the two candi-
dates of the Republicans for district
court. The Republican daily press de-
serted these candidates at the outset,
aid left it necessary for each of these
gentlemen and their friends to fight
the battle out between themselves to
see which of them might succeed in
beating Mr.. Michael. Offers of trades
OF all kinds have been coming to the
Democratic candidates. The friends of
the Republican Candidate for sheriff
