of no exceptions. It may turn out

In Dafte County the army men
who served as privates are said to be
all union men. but about a third ot
the officers are Johnson men, an !
over titty of them known as asking
for offices under Johnson.
It is noted that such officers as
conducted themselves so badly in
tbe army as to merit the hatred ot
their com rads, are all Johnson men.
And it is also noted that draft
skcdadlers and deserters from the
army are generally Johnson men,
being men who feel no allegiance to
any country or any cause except
selfishness.
Such are the political t>ig:.s of the
limes.
