New York, the pivot of American Democratic by ty, this State, the Bates County Republican of this city gives vent to its views in the language append- ed hereto. Surely we see no occasion why a large element of Bates county’s thrifty, honest farmers and mechan- ics, should be slandered and out- raged by any newspaper printed within its borders. All the more shametn! and’ vilitying 1s the lan- guage because of its wanton attack upon the religious convictions ot these people. And yet this paper is a recognized representative of the Radical varty. There 1s but one conclusion, but one interpretation that can be placed on the strange departure of this Re- publican organ, and that is plain to everyobserver; it means a persecu- tion of the German’s by the Radical party. This is simply an opening blast as actuated by the desperate straights of the opposition in the campaign just closed. The future ot the German’s is either to bow to the Radical yoke and become as serts and slaves to its dictation, or, asserting their manhood and their rights as freemen they are te be se- lected as special objects of political persecution. The election is over now, and we expect to accomplish nothing by this at the present, but there is a future and a method in and by which an eutraged people can be vindicated.
