the Methodist Church would like some Of
Farmers" cash. As we said in the beginning
of this article, people who live in glass
houses should never throw stones" When
Farmer" undertakes to Vsntilate the financial
condition of a gentleman the latchets OF whose
shoes he is not worthy to unloOss, he had better
look twice before be leaps once, especially as
this gentleman don't carry twenty thousand
dollar bond in his coat pocket, his portion Of
the Broadbent swindle--sll Of which the poor,
laborne men, the widows and orphans would
have had to pay in the end if the bubble had net
hursted We would ask Farmer whether
he pays the poor laboring men who work
for him from early morn till late at night their
wages without a quarrel? The good Book
says, The lstorcr is worthy of his hire.
Now does Farmer" live uD to this christian
principle! Another little question we would
respectfully ask 3" Farmer ss long as he likes
to be known by that non de plume I'VE suppose


he takes this name from raising that crop Of


kidney beans.( We would like tor you to


point out singls act of yours while in official


position, for the elevation OF the poor labOring


classes. We would like for you to show h1.-


you ever elevated any poor man? On the


other hand is it not from the hard earnings


wrung from the labOrDg classes whom you


have tried to keep in ignorance ane paupsrlsm


that has supported and sustained your family?
! Did you ever know man raised to the highest


position in the gift OF the people Of this State


who willingly sacrificed his honor for the sualI


sum of FIVE hundred dollars to stand in the way


of internal public impTOvemsnts2 People


who live in glass houses should never throw


stones" Even the watch that Farmer


wears, | am told, was bought with lottery


money, and the heavy chain attached to it.
have always been a democrat de>csn led FROM
democratic ancestors and have yet to vote the


first republican ticket but hereafter / shall


vote for that ticket and work for its support.


The issue in this State under the White Man


Ticket" is nothing more than pre- judlce;


nothing more than an appeal to the worst


passions Of men, and by this secret hoOdwnk-
ing cndsavoring to ride into power. You cant
. deceive the people any longer. What do ySu


care for the interest OF the people? What do
you care so that you can hold power? The
E fiat is gone forth You can't, in this State,
adopt platform that is antagOnistic to every
principle Of right and justice that is contrary
TO the principles of every democratic State in
the Union.


You can't stem the current You might a.
we'll attempt to dam the fsaming and dancing
} waters Of Niagara Falls as to stem this onward
progressive political new departurism. The
I negro question is entirely settled and settled
beyond a resurrection. You are FOSSILS ID poll


tics. You are sort Of . man krOwn as RiI
g Vanwinkle. You have been asleep many years
and this fall We will try and wake you up. Al
: that is required is that there should be wig
0 orous prosecution Of the war a vigorous cam


paign, and like the Roman sentlBsIs We vii
nevar desert our post but will hurl the pttun


or jarein against you with all our power. untl
q this sO-called Democratic power shall be con.
