Year: 1862

Woe unto Davis County! What a weight Of
guilt is attached to her garments! Her per6dy


and inhumanity are as ineffaceable as the sun a,


noon-tide. Think Of the carnage and desolation
that would have been spared US had she but
responded to the following, and raised her voice
as the deliverer of the Nation above the diseor-
dant elements then racking the Republic to its
centre. She failed to do her duty, and the
frightful consequences are upon US. 1t were
better she had never been born.


1t is reasonable to suppose that Mr. "Lincon''
knew nothing at the time Of the action proposed,
or he would doubtless never have suffered him
self to be gulled, as he was, by those fellows at
Chicago However, as he is incapable" of tax
ing care of himself, and don't know nuthn
nOhow," we must rally to his aid.


Be it known that the material of this office has
been put TO some base uses in its time. Previous
to the commencement of the UNION, there had
been three of the vilest kind of Democratic papers
issued from this office, viz: the Junction Senti
mel, the Junction City Statesman, and the Kan
sas Statesman. Hence, on coming in charge, we
discovered quite a mass of Democratic rubbish
after the character of this production, which for
genius, as is apparent, reflected upon no one
particularly except the schoolmaster. We give
it verbatim ct literatim:

The above viii not be long in finding its level
among the important State papers of the day. 1t
will be observed that it strikes right home-it
explains the mystery relative to the parentage
of the lght-colored niger babies in the South,
and exposes the ruines eorrup dcctring of the
Abolitionists. We "feel our oats" in having
reserved to US 50 important par. in the solution
of these problems.
