EATON WEEKLY DEMOCRAT. Thursday April 17,1873. LOCAL DEPARTMENT. The Moral of Politics. The canvass for: , Delegate to the Constitutional Convention in Preble county, and the mode in which it was conducted, by those opposed to the election of Mr. Barnet, furnishes iu Eome of its features, food for reflection to the conscientious, fair minded citi zen. Mr. Babxet was rtot before the people in an attitude that ought to have subjected him personally to abuse, or his character to misrepre sentation and vituperative defama tion. Indeed he was not personally responsible for being placed before the pcopleit all as a candidate. It was their act and not his, for it is to be remembered that he time and again, and even on the floor of the Republi can Convention, stated that he was not a candidate, and could not and would not be the candidate of any party. But if the people, without re spect to party, saw proper voluntarily to tender to him the position of Dele gate, he' would discharge theduties of the office to the best of his abilities. That while he was not seeking, and would not seek the place, he would not feci at liberty to refuse it if his fellow.-citizens thrust its duties and responsibilities upon him. This was not Only commendable, but honorable iir him as a man and a citizen. It placed him in an attitude that entitled him to the respect and esteem of his fellow-men. . - "When the people, therefore, with out previous concert of action with out party drill and without distinction of party, put him forward as the man whom they wished to intrust with the grave and serious dnty of forming a new organic law for their own gov ernment, they the people thus act ing fcnd not Mr. Bakket, became the responsible party to the transaction. And this was not a party or political, but simply a moral and civil responsi bility'assunied by the people in their aggregate capacity as citizens. If there was nothing immoral or im proper in it and we claim there was notthen the people had the unques tioned right to occupy the position they assumed in the matter; and be ing thus in the right they were enti tled to fair and honorable treatment at the hands of those who saw fit to place themselves in -opposition "to them, or least their opponents should have refrained from the use of im- moral, not to say basely dishonorable "means, to defeat the people and their cholee.-rHErnder these clrcnmfetances jf i)lay and dastardly blows were secretly and stealthily struck at Mr. Barxet in name, they were in fact and in effect aimed at and intended to strike down those who were respon sible for putting him forward, viz: tiie people themselves. If foul means were used to defeat Mr. Barxet and the people, by whom were they used? ifot by the Republican party as a par ty ix fact, for Mr. Barxet is a Re publican and was voted for by Repub licans as well as Democrats without respect to party. Nor can it be said that it . was the Republican party against the Democratic partyfor as has been said, Mr. Barxet is a Re publican and -the Democratic 'party had not nominated hint. If, therefore, foul means ' were' used to defeat Mr. Barxet and the people, and it was hot the Republican party as a party, iu fact, that did it, and it was yet done in the same of the Republican party, these interesting questions arise : "Who are the parties authorized to make use of foul means in the name of the Republican party to defeat a Republican and the choice of Repub licans? Is there a Rixg that claims the right and power to use the Repub lican party organization to crush and defeat Republicans not members of that Rixa, and to use any means fair or foul in the xame of the party to accomplish this end ? If there is such a Rixg, it is certain that Mr. Barxet and the Republicans who voted for him are not members of it. For it stands to reason that they would not have made use of means calculated to defeat themselves. "We suspect the existence of a Rixg in the Republican party of Preble County, which, for years has control! cd and still expects to control that or ganization, and through it the offices andjpublic patronage of the county, "We suspect further, that the Ring in tended to accomplish two purposes bv the means used to sustain itself and defeat Mr. Barxet in the late canvass. First, to make such a dazz- lingly brilliant exhibition of the po tency of its power to vilify, tra duce, defame and misrepresent the character, public, private, religions, moral and political, of any who had the temerity to not only question, but openly revolt against its iufalibility, touching the disposition of the offices of honor, trust or emolument in Pre ble county ; that awe stricken Repub licans would hereafter fear and trem ble in their presence, and flee from the wrath of the Ring, as they would from the besom of destruction. And secondly, to bind Mr. Barxet and Republican friends hand and foot, and pitch them into that outer darkness political perdition, from whence they wonld never return to torment Ring, with their Republican or Libe ral presence again. "We have not so far said that im moral and dishonest means were tually used by the Ring to defeat to Mr. Barxet, who, we regret to say, was most seriously injured in the es foul timation of some of those who were Babxet, but reports from various parts of the County have reached our ears, and these from the variety of form and substance in which they appear, in different locations, causes us to suspect that the whole arrange ment was concocted at a common cen tre and systematically distributed in pursuance of a pre-concerted plan. From Orthodox neighborhoods we hear that reports were circulated to the effect that Mr. Barxet was an Atheist that he "did not believe in G-od, man or the Devil" that "if he was elected there was nothing he could be sworn or qualified by," &c, &c. Those who know him intimate ly, know all the above to be'false. To temperance men it was told that he was an old fogy drinker after the ol den style that he kept his bottle on a side-board, and the first thing when a friend called, was to take a mutual drink, and hence could not be trusted on the License question. To men who were iu favor of a return to the License system, as a means of regula ting the traffic in intoxicating liquors, it was represented that he was a dyed in-the-wool fanatical prohibitionist, &ci "We do not know what his views are on the subject we know he is personally a Btrictly temperance man, but it is the duplicity and dishonesty of telling anythiug that it was thought would win, that we object to. In some localities it was reported that he was a Kail Road man, and in others that he was opposed to them.. In some places it was said he was a heavy holder of Bail Road bonds, and was in favor of making the people pay them by taxation. A favorite story was that he was in favor of taxing the people of any Township through which a Rail Road run, to pay for it, whether they were in favor of it or not. That he had submitted his name to the Republican Convention, had been defeated, and then bolted. In all the above reports that were circu lated just previous to the Election, in places where, as. Oakes Ames said about the Credit Mobilier money he placed in Congress, "it would do the most good,'' there were falsehoods, ei ther directly expressed or to be clear ly implied. There were many other reports that were intended to be de rogatory to Mr. Barxet and those who supported him, but the above specimens 6how all that is necessary, to wit: That falsehoods and defatna- tiou was industriously and persistent ly used to defeat Mr. Barsjet, and through him all who refused to bow the neck and submit, to the yoke of the Rix3., There are two reasons why we call ed attention to this subject. The first is, that we might do an act of justice not acquainted with him, by these false reports. Those who knew him intimately, knew them to be fabrica tions, and hence where he was best known, in Eaton and Camden, he lit erally swept all before him, and in the name of all who do know him we pronounce the whole web and tissue of reports above referred to, misera ble and despicable falsehoods. In the second place we wish to say to our friends throughout the County who were fearful that, from the reports alluded to, terrible calamities would follow the election of Mr. Barxet, that they need have no fears, for he is simply a just and sincere man, who has through a long and useful life. walked uprightly before his Creator and fellow-men, and there need be no fears that now when he is old he will depart from the paths Of rectitude that he" has followed all his life. And we wish finally to say,that there was no morality or honor in the means used to defeat Mr. Barxet. If any feels that he or they are hit by the above remarks, let him or them squeal." On The Increase. That the circulation of the-DEifocRAT is steadily on the increase, is true, and had we not dropped from our list on the first of January, many who owed for the year, we would -now have close to eight hundred subscribers ! The follow ing new names have been entered upon our books at this office since the first of March, and we don't believe there is another county paper in the State that can show a larger voloxtary increase of subscription in the past month and half. It is all the evidence we desire that the paper is appreciated : J. W. Stephens, - Stiver & Freeinan, Thomas .Ozias, Jas. H. Myler, John UraiR, Oliver Cotterman, .lag; iiaughiinf Wilson Koyer,- V. W. lliirris, P. C. Golilsmitli, Win. Kisinaer,- G. W. Woodring, Sam'l. Myers. " Iaviu nays, John cioodwin, Peter McXutt, T. M. Dine, Jos. L. Hennet, Michael Focht, Jacob Locle, Henry uller, Joshua Her, Henry hmeck, Adam Tence, J. L. Kelly, A. I). Borden, John D Sehlicht. We have room on our books for a few more, andwant our frieiuls to send their names, and see if we cannot double this list in the next forty days. bis of the ac The pious and good Isaae, whose sonl is muchly harrowed over stubborness of the "ritl-raff," advised his party to disband if Mr. Miller was not elected. Tbe people refuse vote as he instructs them, will party take his advise and disband? They should do something lor their organ-grinder's relief. The Radical Ring threateri to disj franchise the Townships of Washing ton and Sotners,- because they el'use to endorse their nominations. Tifnt would be healthy. "Who lives for himself alone, lives for a mean fellowv Manufactories. A short time ago some of ourciti zens were highly elated at the pros pect of the establishing of a Steam Flouring Mill in our midst, and we thought as a matter Of course, the eri terprise would be pushed until we heard the sound of the whistle and the rattle of the burrs. There is nothing to conipai'e tc the importance of manufacturing establishments as a means of permanent prosperity to our town, and we hOpo those who had this matter in contemplation will not give it up without at least an effort worthy of the enterprise. "We are in favor Of ahy iheahs which will foster and encourage manufacturing. If we can secure these .sources of wealth, prosperity and population in no other way, we would favor the issuing of Corporation Bonds to aid and benefit either companies or individuals, who would engage in manufacturing in our town. "We hope not only our men of capital will seriously.consider their own interests and those of the community, but we hope our citizens, every one; will realize that this ques tion is one of great importance to all, rich and poor, mechanic, merchant and laborer. There are in our midst jnechanics who, if assisted financially, would by their skill and industry add to the wealth arid prosperity Of our town. After aiding those we now have, if we have not as much manufacturing as will be profitable, then offer induce ments to skilled workmen in other localities to come amongst us and commence business, but let us first see that those of our mechanics now strug gling to rise, are properly fostered and substantially aided. "We have young men, and those of mature years in our midst, who by a little pecunia ry aid, would add to the general pros perity and business of Eaton. Let capitalists see that they are encourag ed. Let us not practice upon the pre cept that "a prophet is not without honor, save among his own people." Let us not be looking out for heathen when behold they are at our very doors. Encourage the mechanics now iu our midst, and if they do not fill your ideas of manufacturing,look else where for others to come and add to the business of our town. Serenade and Presentation. A few of the many old friends of the Hon. David Barxet, assembled at his residence on Saturday evening last, and with the Silver Cornet Band, of Camden, serenaded and presented him with a "Constitutional Hat," in honor of his recent victory. The Hat was presented by our young friend, W. B. Marsh, Esq., of Camden, in a neat and very sensible little address. Mr. Burnet accepted the Hat "not for its intrinsic value.but simp ly as a token of friendship and a me mento of the occasion that brought them together." It was a pleasant and happy affiur, and we regret we were unaDie 10 te present, as was the intention. We are indebted to W. J. W. for a re port, but there was more than we could crowd in this week. a j in the to the Elder Levi PurvianCe, for more than fifty years a pi eacher of . the Gospel in the Christian Churchy died at his -.residence in this place, on the 9th inst., in 83d year of his agej The deceased emi grated from Kentucky to Preble county, in iSOG, and from early youth to the close of his useful and eventful life, he has, in the fullest sense of the term, lived the life of a christian. He visited the fath erless and the widow, and kept himself unspotted of the world. A teacher who cannot control! a school without scolding.ranting, maul ing, or boxing the . pupils, ought to understand that he or she has mista ken their calling. Children naturally desire to learn and do right, and a teacher understanding human nature as he ought, need have little or no trouble in directing them ; his mere presence should, in most cases, be suf ficient to secure order. Adair, the ''Limior Law" man was defeated in his own Republican coun ty for Constitutional Delegate. That would indicate that his constituents were "sobering" np. The people of Ohio would be satisfied with a license law, and we hope the Constitutional tinkers will furnish one. The alarm of "-fire" on Saturday af ternoon last, satisfied the citizens of Ea ton that onr Steain Engine is coiilmand- ed by a wide-awake Engineer, and that the Company is well-organized and rea dy for duty at a moments warning. The " rift-raft' and scum" of this County rallied to the pells on Monday the 7th irist. again, and done a little better than last la.l. Isaac was as mild as a "sucking dove" over it. A bill exempting from forced sale on execution, personal property to the amount of $500 belonging to heads of families, not owners of homesteads, has passed the legislature, and is now a law. A local editor f many years expe rience has declared tnat tne man yet unborn who could write a local item and be perfectly sure that nobo dy would be offended. Can anybody tell why the finishing up of the pavement in front of the O. and Bank is delayed? A place where women meet to tell what they know about others, is usu ally called a sewing society. "A backward spring" is produced by presenting a red-hot poker to man's face. The only remedy for hard times to set your money in motion. Keep it moving. Justices' of the Peace. The following are the Justices elect ed in the County on Monday the 7th of April : Israel TV. D. Bbi-huUile. Jackson Johli McTVhiniieJ-j St". Jefferson L. W. liiclieyi Somers Wht. B.

"Thompson House" If any of our friuhds from around here ever have occasion to visit Castine, and want a good, substantial and square meal, stop at the above House, kept by Mr. Miller, formerly of Eaton, and you will be sure to get it. He fed all the Eaton delegation, and done it well, and anybody looking at the list Osgood eat ers, will wonder where he got all the provisions to do it with. TVe.saw more Chicken, Ham and Eggs vanish, in the short space of five minutes, than ever before. If some were not our close neighbors, we might pjirtieularijdt The worst part of it was one of them is re ported to have "cut" on his bill) uceau.-ie he was too full to do it justice I Off to Kansas. C. J. Beam, Esq., of New IY.ri., has migrated to Kansas. We are sorry to lose so efficient and industriofts a Demo crat as "Joe" from Preble county, and especially from JefiVrson Township. His zeal had reduced the Radical major ity in Jefferson very considerable, but from the result of the Spring election, we fear it will go back into the slough of Radicalism. Jlr. Bwun will settle iu Lawrence city, and vewi?h him success in all his undertakings. Judge Meeker's Vote. The whole vote cast in this County for Judge D. L. Meeker, for Common Pleas Judge, was 2081; From some cause or other Jeffeaon Township returned no vote for Judge on the jxll bok. We suppose it was an oversight of the Judg es of the election of that Township. The Ohio Liberal. We have received the first copy of a paper headed "The Ohio Liberal," of which the chief editor is GeoiR. Iirink- erhoff and in the interest of the Ohio Liberal Republicans It is neatly print ed and ably edited. We wish it success. More account is made of the spirit than of the understanding in Kansas, and a young man was recently fined twenty five dollars for crying amen with a flavor of levity at a prayer meeting. , We pity any man who has nothing to do, for idleness is the mother of more misery and crime than all other causes ever thought or drctiiiied of.
