Title A name given to the resource GERMAN-IOWAN NEWSPAPERS Document Translation Transcription Any written text transcribed from a sound Der republikanische Präsidentschafts-Candidat [Präsidentschaftskandidat] James Gillespie Blaine wurde am 31. Januar 1830 in Washington County, Pennsylvanien geboren; er erhielt seine Ausbildung in einemdortigen [einem dortigen] „College“, wurde dann Lehrer für’s Rechnen in Kentucky, wo er eine junge Dame aus Maine kennenlernte, die er heirathete [heiratete] und die ihn überredete nach Maine überzusiedeln, wo er bald darauf Zeitungsredacteur [Zeitungsredakteur] wurde. Er befürwortete im Kennebec Journal und Portland Daily Advertiser entschieden die PROHIBITION und als er später ins Abgeordnetenhaus seines Staates gewählt wurde, war er einer der thätigsten [tätigsten] Temperenz- und Prohibitions-Befürworter. 1862 wurde er ins National-Abgeordnetenhaus gewählt, in dem er drei aufeinanderfolgende Termine [Legislaturperioden] Sprecher war, welche Stellung er benutzte, um sich zu bereichern auf Kosten des Volkes. 1876 wurde er zum Senator ernannt durch den Gouverneur des Staates Maine. Als Garfield Präsident wurde, gab er seine Stellung als Senator auf, um als Staatsminister in das Cabinet [Kabinett] Garfield’s zu treten, aus welcher Stellung er jedoch durch Präsidenten [Präsident] Arthur entlassen wurde. Um die Präsidentschafts-Candidatur [Kandidatur] bewarb sich Blaine dreimal. Zum ersten Male in 1876, dann in 1880 und dieses Jahr. Candidat [Kandidat] für die Präsidentschaft ist er nun wohl, aber Präsident der Ver. Staaten wird er nicht, da seine Verbindungen mit allen Monopolen eine zu bekannte ist. Außerdem hat er sich durch seine corrupten [korrupten] Handlungen im National-Abgeordneten Hause wie im Ver. Staaten Senat berüchtigt gemacht. [...] Blaine nannte in einer seiner Reden die deutschen „Hessians“, was nach amerikanischer Auslegung so viel bedeutet als: Miethling [Mietling], oder für Geld feil sein. Es wird das Wort „Hessian“ vom Amerikaner als Schimpfwort gegen die Deutschen gebraucht, und wenn er einen käuflichen und bestechlichen Menschen bezeichnen will. Daß [Dass] der Amerikaner das Wort „Hessian“ in diesem Sinne gebraucht, stammt aus dem amerikanischen Freiheitskriege. Die Geschichte ist folgende. Der damalige Landgraf von Hessen, ein geiziges und geldgieriges Subjekt, schloß [schloss] mit der britischen Regierung einen Vertrag ab, vermöge dessen er genannter Regierung Hülfstruppen [Hilfstruppen] lieferte zur Bekämpfung der Amerikaner, und erhielt er für jeden gelieferten Mann die Summe von $20. Nun preßte [presste] er in seinem Lande soviel Männer, als er nur konnte, welche nach England, und von dort nach Amerika gesandt wurden, wo man sie zwang gegen die junge Republik zu kämpfen. Die Amerikaner haßten [hassten] diese hessischen Hülfstruppen [Hilfstruppen], weil sie dieselben fürchteten, denn die Hessen waren tapfere Soldaten. Man verläumdete [verleumdete] sie, indem man ihnen nachsagte, sie hätten die Amerikaner gebrandschatzt, sowie sie im Marodiren [marodieren] Meister gewesen. Dies ist, wie gesagt, eine Verläumdung [Verleumdung]. Viele Hessen gingen zu den Amerikanern über und kämpften in deren Reihen, zur Erringung deren Freiheit. Nur niedrig denkende und handelnde Menschen wie Blaine, können es den armen Hessen übel nehmen, daß [dass] sie gegen die Amerikaner fochten, denn sie waren gezwungen, und noch abscheulicher ist es, wenn das Wort in genanntem Sinne auf ein ganzes Volk angewandt wird. Deutsche, seid ihr Miethlinge [Mietlinge]? Seid ihr für Geld feil? __________________ Zum demokratischen National-Convent [Konvent] sendet der Staat New York eine solide Cleveland Delegation. Die drei demokratischen Parteigruppen, nämlich Tammany Hall, County Demokratie u. Irving Hall vereinigten sich auf diesen ausgezeichneten Mann und wird mithin auch wahrscheinlich demokratischer Präsidentschafts Candidat [Kandidat] werden. Translation The Republican presidential candidate James Gillespie Blaine was born on January 31, 1830, in Washington County, Pennsylvania. He received his education in a college there and became a teacher for mathematics in Kentucky, where he met a young woman from Maine, whom he married and who persuaded him to move to Maine, where he soon became a newspaper editor. In the Kennebec Journal and the Portland Daily Adviser he supported PROHIBITION and when he got elected into the House of Representatives of his state, he was one of the most active supporters for the temperance and prohibition movements. He got elected into the national House of Representatives in 1862 where he was Speaker for three consecutive terms and used this position to enrich himself at the expense of the people. He was nominated senator by the governor of the state of Maine. When Garfield became president, he quit his position as senator to serve as minister of state in Garfield’s cabinet, but he was fired under President Arthur. Blaine applied for the position of presidential candidate three times. For the first time in 1876, then in 1880 and this year. Now he is a candidate for the presidency but he will not be president of the United States because his connections to all monopolies are too obvious. In addition, he became notorious because of his corrupt actions in the national House of Representatives. Short News The accounting agent Isaak A. Stanley of the National Bank of Commerce was arrested in Cleveland, Ohio for the embezzlement of $100,000. – The Cumberland Valley in Pennsylvania was afflicted by torrential rain. Several trains nearly crashed. Huge damage was inflicted to crops, houses, fences etc. – Near Madrid, Spain, a railway tunnel under construction collapsed and killed 12 workers. – The morganatic marriage of the Grand Duke of Hesse-Darmstadt with Miss von Kolemin was invalidated. Miss von Kolemin gets 25,000£ as compensation and 1,000£ per annum. – The Egyptian soldiers are so cowardly that the English sergeants who serve in the Egyptian army resigned their positions. – There might be a violation of the peace between France and England because of Egypt. – In Monaco, the notorious bathing place, where every year millions of dollars are lost and won at gambling, already 32 people committed suicide because they lost their whole fortunes. – At Lynchburg, VA, a black boy shot another boy. The citizens took the shooter [Schießbold?] out of prison and hung him. – The weatherman Venner died last week at the age of 44. Whoever believes that we are without any weather now is wrong because the weatherman Wiggins now has the monopoly to make the weather. – Logan visited his comrade Blaine in Augusta. ______________ Blaine called the Germans in one of his speeches “Hessians”, which in the American interpretation means something like “hireling” or to be buyable with money. The word “Hessians” is used as a swearword by Americans against the Germans and when they want to designate a venal or corrupt person. That the American uses the word “Hessian” in this way dates back to the Revolutionary War. The story is the following. The former landgrave of Hesse, a stingy and mercenary character, made a contract with the British government stipulating that he would deliver auxiliaries to fight the Americans and that he would get $20 for every delivered man. He pressed as many men as he could, sent them to England and from there to America, where they were forced to fight against the young republic. Americans hated those Hessian auxiliaries because they were afraid of them as the Hessians were brave soldiers. They were slandered by saying that they pillaged the Americans and that they had been masters at marauding. This is, as said before, a slander. Many Hessians went over to the Americans and fought in their ranks to achieve their freedom for them. Only low-minded and low-acting people like Blaine would blame the poor Hessians for fighting against the Americans because they were forced to do so, and it is even more horrible when the word is used in this sense against a whole nation. Germans, are you hirelings? Are you to be had for money? _____________ The state New York is sending a solid Cleveland delegation to the democratic national convention. The three party groups, namely Tammann Hall, County Democracy, and Irving Hall blend into this excellent man and will most likely be the democratic presidential candidate.
