W® promised our readers that we would imcover some of the rottenness of the late campaign, and show to the Republi­ can party of MclTenry county that they had been hugging a viper to their bosom, and that men who had been asking and receiving their support for office, were •retly knifeiug the party and its candi dates. And right here we wish to my that we are not doing this in the interest of any one or more individuals, but fulfilling a duty we owe to the Republican Party *w»d to lend our aid to break up a serni- Democratic gang, who are living on the f»t of Republican offices, and secretly aiding and abetting the Democratic cause. It is an oped secret that there were three candidates on the Republican coun­ ty ticket at the last election who were not the choice of the Republican voters of the county, who received their nomina­ tion by one of the most gigantic political steals ever perpetrated in a Convention, And had the people rebelled it would not have been strange. But when one of these candidates, nominated for one of the, if not the most responsible office in the county, that of County Judge, secret­ ly works to beat a regular nominee, and in favor of a rump Democratic candidate, and boasts of the fact, it is about time the Republicans of McHenry county awake to the situation. The time when men can carry high hand and crack the whip over the heads of voters with im­ punity lias gone by. Had these facts tieen known forty-eight hours before eloclion, the paltry eight hundred major­ ity in a county where it should have been eighteen hundred, would have been wiped out, and the present Judge would have l>een obliged to look to his rump Demo­ cratic friends for consolation. Republicans of McIIeory County, will you awake to the situation ? A candi­ date on your ticket for one of the most responsible offices in the county, taking active part in Democratic Conventions, peddling Republican votes with the rump Democratic candidate's name for the Leg­ islature in place of the regular Republi­ can nominee, and secretly boasting among his pals that he will knife a regu­ lar nominee whenever he gets a chance. Is this the kind of a man a Republican county like McHenry is feeding at the public crib? Is it any way certain that mich men ever voted a straight Republi­ can ticket in their lives? We don't be­ lieve it. It now behooves every loyal Republican to look this matter squarely in the face. It ia not that any particular individual has been beaten, but the party has been humiliated and gang rule has triumphed. Shall it continue ? This is a question in which every Republican voter in McHenry county is interested, and it should not be cast idly by. True, it is two years be­ fore another election, but the seal of con­ demnation should be/put upon such acts now, that it may be a warning for all time to come. There are good Republi­ cans enough to fill the offices of thecounty, and not allow them to be filled by semi- democratic traitors. More anon. THB REPUBLICAN OOUWTY COM­ MITTEE. One of the serious drawbacks in the late campaign in this county was the inefficiency of the Republican County Committee. They simply did nothing. They never organized, and the self-ap- pointed chairman made himself conspic­ uous only in that one particular, and that was in signing his name as chair­ man, aud we are informed that there is bow a ton of campaign literature piled in his back office, not one sheet having been distributed. Was this another of the schemes ot the gang to cut down the Re­ publican majority in the county? Are there not reasons for the charge that we now have men holding office in McHenry, Co. who have been elected by Republican votes, who have for years been secretly knifing the party and its candidates, and who are to-day more Democrats at heart' than Republicans? Such charges are openly made, and we are sorry to say there is too much reason to believe that there is more truth than poetry in the charge. We do not mean to be understood as charging that every member of the County Committee are open to the charge as above, but they are to blame for al­ lowing a self-appointed chairman to run natters in the interest of the gang to the detriment of the Republicah cause. Their disgust should have led them to seek the good of the party and ask the thing to take a back seat, and do his work for his semi-Democratic friend without the pres­ tige of the Republican committee at his back. The Republican voters of McHenry county will do wdl to bear this matter in mind, and in the future see to it that the committee is composed of Republicans who have the good of the party at heart. A& Undismayed Republican. Mh W. R. Morse, of Memphis, Tens., who stands at the head of the largest dry goods house in the Southern States, has not lost faith in the Republican party or confidence in the issue which the late elec­ tion, unfortunately, left unsettled. The issue is the tariff. Of it Mr. Morse says, in a spirited letter to the Republican Eagle, "tariff will be, the supreme issue in the next great battle. Let the friends of protection write on their banners, 'American producers ctw and must sup- ply American wants,' and by this sign they will conquer." Mr. Morse speaks in good season, and he talks plainly. The question is just as to the power and duty of American pro­ ducers to supply American wants. The American free traders who tell American farmers that "Liverpool fixes the price ot American wheat," though it does not, should remember that, if it is a bad thing to have a foreign country ftx the price of the small proportion of American wheat now exported, it would be a much worve thing if, by reason of our manufacturers being starved to death, a foreigncountiy should fix the price of twice as large a volume of grain exports as now flow abroad. They should also remember that Sir Lyon Playfair has just told the British voters that twenty years from now the people of America will consume all the farm products of the Republic, if only the plau of protection is maintained. The American policy should be to insure a great American market for American products. The tariff, as Mr. Morse says, is to be the great issue «f the nest election. We think, also, that Mr. Morse truly diagnoses the causes of Republican dis­ aster in all of the States when he speaks thus of the causes operating ia his own State: First of all is, became the United States Senate refused to exercise the ^>ewer of their lawful majority to pass the measure which, more than all ofier, had been for the last five years urged and saciedly promised upon every st imp and in every convention. Again, our party hud con­ tinued at its head to conduct its manage­ ment a man who had doggedly remained silent under grave charges of the most serious character, made against him by respectable and responsible men of both the great political parties. Again, Demo­ cratic newspapers had disingenuously and universally represented the McKinley bill as having already raised the prices of many articles, even those upon which the tariff had been actually lowered, while in fact there is scarcely an article on sale (certainly noue in my house) which cau not now be bought at precisely the same or less prices thau before the pass ige of the bill. Again in our State the party candidates were not in every case the party choice, but had been nominated through a combination of unfortunate circumstances . Again, being the second or "off year" oftheadmini.stration,many hundreds of thousands of disappointed Republicans were determined to "get even" with the President for his inability to give each of the applicants an office. Again, the aggressive and Btijierior political tactics of Democratic leaders has been in marked contrast to the halt­ ing, hesitating, and timid conduct of the Republicans. Now is the time to provide against the recurrence of such errors. As to prices, time ard truth are twins, and they are protectionists; their evidence will have convinced the people long before 1892 that prices have not been "raised on ac­ count of the tariff." As to the Senate, w3 trust that it is about to add the vir­ tue of courage to the ornament of dig­ nity. As to leadership, it is necessary to choose men ot clean hands and pure hearts. The question of personality is not to be overlooked.--Inter-Ocean. I®" A sensational story has been pub lished in Chicago to the effect that the vote of Waukegan at the late election was illegal and could be thrown out, and the .effect on the legislative ticket would be to defeat Mr. Partridge and elect Reed, Donnelly and Murch. The alleged illegal­ ity in the vote is the claim that no voting precinct should contain more than 450 votes, and as this town contains over one thousand votes, therefore should be thrown out. There is enough in the fact to warrant a sensational article but not enough to cause any alarm. The board of Supervisors however should at its meeting in July next, divide the town- sh'p into at least three voting precincts. 7* Bb<p into at least three ~.WAuktnr»n j> 19* The next Congress, which "will con­ vene the first Monday in December, 1891, one year from now, will stand Democrats, 229; Republicans, 94; Farmers, 8. Dem­ ocratic majority over Republicans and Farmers, 127; Democratic majority with Farmers against Republicans, 135. Tbe Senate will stand 46 Republicans and 42 Democrats. The Republicans will hold control of every branch of the gov­ ernment until March 4, 1891, when this Congress expires, and for two years, un­ til March 4, 189.3, the Republicans will hold control of the Senate and of the Presidency. The Democrats have se­ cured for the next two years after March 4,1891, the control of the lower house of Congress; but they will be powerless to repeal a single law, or to pass a single law, unless the people in 1892 elect a Democratic President and give the Dem­ ocrats control of the Senate. We have no fear of that. We believe that the Re­ publicans will elect their candidate for President in 1892, retain control of the United States Senate, and regain the con­ trol of the House of Representatives. Before two years roll around the people will experience the great benefits of pro­ tection under the control of the Republi­ can party. The Republican party is right, and the right will prevail.--.Free- port Journal. Yet people will vote as they choose regardless of conventions, and no news­ paper or set of men can control the voters, and should not. be blamed because they cannot. W ill some of our county exchanges make a note of that fact?-- Marengo Republican. The above is a little dark. Brother Babcock, please rise and explain. 16?"It must be highiy gratifying to the Democrats to know that jubilee meetings are being held all over Europe to cele­ brate the Democratic victory, which over there is regarded as the first step towards free trade. Let the man who "earns his bread by the sweat of his bro.w" devote a few minutes to studying, and then let him ask himself "why these Europeans are rejoicing at Democratic success?" Cemetery Notice. Notice is hereby given that a meeting of officers and all persons interested in the Cemetery on Robt. Richardson's farm, on Section 20, McHenry township, State 6f Illinois, will be held at Ilassett's school house, in school district 5 and 7 McHeury township, on Friday evening' the 28th day of November, 1890, at the hour of 7 o'clock, to elect a board of trustees for the aforesaid cemetery and to transact any other business the' meet­ ing may think best. By order of the ex •• * Letter from California. IfcttNBRooK, Cat, Nov. 16,1890, EntTon 1'iiA fN dea mcr : -- Yesterday, amid the impressive grandeur of Califor­ nia mountain altitudes and changes, we crossed the Siskiyon range which divides Lower Oregon from Upper California, getting a capital view ot snow-clad Mt, Shasta in the distance. Thopharp curves, heavy grades, diezy trestles, massive, ever-changing rock peaks, blood curd­ ling, sheer precipices, and other novel sights, keep , the mountain railway passenger in a constant, wide­ awake, expectant, tip-toe frame of mind. A number of the survivors of the late wreck near Sulcm, Oregon, were on board our train and added to the excitement of the occasion by the recital of the horrors of that recent black, fatal night. Here we have a small hamlet of two or three hundred people, much scattered, occupy­ ing perhaps a square mile/ engaged in gold mining aud stock raising. We were to-day shown some nuggets ranging in value from one to ton dollars. The own­ er informed us that he had teen them taken from the blue gravel larger thrn his fist. These are pure gold from the placers. In passing through Douglas, Josephine, and Jackson counties, Oregon, we saw a very excellent fruit district. Along the Rogue river valley are numerous apple, pear and peach orchards, vineyards, vegetable and grain farms. But prune culture seems the most profit­ able business in that rich valley. One man told us he had cleared five hundred dollars last season, from four acres ol tour years old prune trees. At Riddle, Oregon, i< a rich nickel mine, said to ex­ tend over nine hundred acres. Venison is a very common table luxury in thie country; so much so that it has ceased to be a luxury with us. Elk, deer, ante­ lope, mountain lion and bear are the every-day delight of the hunger. The famous mistletoe flourishes here in abundant profusion. The manziuita or native apple, mountain laurel, fir, yellow pine and redwood, are common products of the forests. High winds seldom annoy the people here. There have been several consecutive months without rain. Heavy frosts occur nightly, but the days an sunny and warm for November. The re­ cent Tory victories at late election', show how far British gold, allied with gross ignorance, can control the ballot box in a country where too much fr« edom exists in one-half, and too little in the other. Tins prove* the necessity of a Federal election law in the Southern rebel States. Tbe Pacific States have commenced early to make preparation for the.great Chicago show in '93. Away to the east of Ashland, which is the prin­ cipal town of Southern Oregon, are the two-storied lakes. Great and L'ttle Kla­ math, connected by a river one mile in length, with a fall of 800 feet. This won­ derful natural water power will be util­ ized one day, as immense forests of sugar pine and fir of gigantic size abound. The present difficulty of access time and enter- prize will obviate, the two lakes, being situated on the east slope of the Cascade?, a mild climate and very productive soil. Many extinct volcano crater lakes, are to be met with among these mountains, some of which are said to be poisonous. Our mountaiuous travels will soon er.d, for in a few days we will reach the n.ild, rich Sacramento valley, reachiug it at the thriving little town of Redding. We are still apprehensive of a railway tragedy before reaching 'Frisco. The d'dliea art blood red with the terrible frequency ofi their occurrence. Why, our awfully just law-maker^, seem blind to the*e startling facts, very emphatically declares to all unbiased, thinking minds, that these pompous, selfish, office seeking bodies must be owned and controlled by such magnates as Huntington, the Vander- bilts, et al. If not, why this dreadful multiplicity of the bloody recotds, with norestraiuingnorpreventingcnactments. In passing from Riddle to Glendale, Douglas county, Oregon, on tbe S. P. R. W., we encountered a mountain avalanche, where four hundred thousands tons of rock and earth precipitated them­ selves into a canon, and upon the rail­ way. just one hour after the passenger traiu was due, completely filling the canon, damning a river, forming a lake covering ten acres more than 50 feet deep, and entirely filling up two railway tunnels. Douglas county, by the way,j embraces more territory than the State of Connecticut. Another item which tbe thoughtful tourist has booked, is the frequency and success of train robberies, which suggests the existence of a joint mutual protective company, of which the robbers are merely employees, or at best pards.
