OUR TICKET.

We have the satisfaction of placing at

ocfatic ticket, to be supported at the ap-
preaching election, and it is such a. ticket
as we can with pride recommend to the
support afthe freemen Of Portage county.
tits one,which, every one should strive to
make successful. Our opponents are al
teady9in thesf field, md by every means in
thsif power striving to perpetuate those
measares,of injustice and oppression which
they have fastened upon the country. They
avow their determination to continue upon
Tie statute book the odious tax law of last
winsenss. Eheys are determined that the
laws Of the State shall be such as favor the
rich and oppfess,the poor; and if the friends
Of equal rights would secure the success Of
tAsif principles, now is the time for ener'
gstic and united action. Let there be a
thorough and efficient organization through
out the -county-in every township and
school district. d Bethe watchword of every
democrat from this time until the tine of
election, ORGANIZE! and on the day of
election. let the Democrats one and all rally
to;the polls in support of their cherished
principles with firm determination that
victory shall be ours. /

The Other Side Of the Picture.

The wings at the North are endeay-
bring to create q prejudice against the new
tariff bill. on account Of its free trade
principles, their brethren at the south are
growing about ii because it is too proteciive.
The Milledgeville Journal, the leading whig
paper in Georgia, thus characterizes the
new law:
'sWith features in it somewhat prefer
able to the act Of 1912, it is yet as obnoxi
GUS bill, in our opinion, to the South, on
account Of bs protective features generally,
as the Northern Democracy could pass,
without outraging the country and the con.
stitution. s-
"Fhe Wing party Of Georgia is anti
Tariff party opposed as much to pro
tective Tariff as any other party. Those
who write otherwise, in our opinion, mis-
represent them. They are worse thar
misrepresented, too, when it is said they arr
opposed to the late Tariff bill because i
does not sufficiently protect certain articles
or that il is not sufficiently protective in it
character. Why protection sticks out il
almost every feature of it. Upon thi,
ground we shall oppose it, and we believ.
upon this ground, It will be condemned by
the Georgia Wings"

Protection Of Labor.

The whole force Of the wings is spent in
efforts to convince the people that the deni-
ocrats are trying to reduce; the wages Of
the laborer, while their object is to promote
his interest and increase his wages. They
declare this to be their object in almost ev-
cry resolution adopted at their meetings,
and 1t forms the burthen Of the speech Of
all their stump orators. The rascally dem
oerats are trying to ruin the country and
break down the.wages Of the laborer,' say
they, and they brood solemnly over the ru-
in whichtth they say is sure to come upon u.s.
We know Of no better way Of determining
the efficiency Of their measures in promot
ing the inenests ofiabor than by their prac
tical operations, and we have had enough
Of them to prove to. us that they are
all calculated from their protective tar
iff 70 their infatnous tax law, to favor tn,
'rich and waif f,2rnn at the expense Of the
laboring pfoducersof the country.
Rit we're tue, as they assert, that tn,

bles that two Of our relatives are candidates
for county Offices this year. Such COM
plants come with i'll grace from one who,
mot content with the most Of the public print
ing Of this county for years past, has had
the per diem Of the Clerkship Of the House
for three winters, and is now the whig can.

before this, who, whilst. gnawing shank
growled and snapped at whatever ofhis spe
cies drew near to smell Of his repast.
The intimation that these nominations
were made through any influence ofours,is
unqualifedly a base falsehood, which finds
uuerance only by the liar Of the Star and

filling their pockets with the earnings of
industry, and this is their chief anxiety,
That they care nothing for the toilers, even
in their own work shops, is perfectly appa-
rent from the clamor of the wings about
The reduction Of wages" These manu-
factursrs have been making hayy gains
for the past few years, and yet they
have evinced no desire to raise the wages
of their operatives during this season Of their
prosperity, nor viii they now forego their
enormous dividends Of Is and 20 per cent.
and content themselves with fair and red
sonable profits, that they may give to those
/ in their employ full compensation for
their toll.
+ The last few years have tested the meas
ures of the whig party. We have had in
this state any quantity Of banks cooked up
by the wings to their own liking, to furnish
a .s'home currency" for the people-we have
been Highly fapored with whig tariff to
furnish sshome market'' for the produc'
tons Of our soil; and still with all these in
calculable blessings, the wages of labor ane
the price ofproduce Of all kinds, have been
less than when under the influence Of the
'ruinous' measures Of the destructive DEM
ocrats, -
