THE WAY TO DO 1T!

Here is resolution passed at a Democratic
meeting in Green township, Hamilton county,
and we hore The Democracy Of little young
Wyandot stand ready to adopt the same. BIZ,
a few weeks remain for action, and let us have
an organization that will perfect our union
bring out our strength and cause MS to be
eloriouslv victorious. Do not let us be salts.
fed with our old majority, but let our whole
effort be to increase it largely. This resolu-
tiou contains the words we ought to adopt and
carry out. Democrats, will you one and all
be up and doing from this day until the last
vote is cast! Will you aid us IN increasing
our majority, so that other Democratic coun-
ties may give us praise for our union and well
fought battle. Let every Democrat resolve
within himself that the following sentiment
shall be his motto until the battle is fought
and the victory won:
Resolued, That we will not be satisfied
merely 10 elect our county ticket, but we are
determined to give the whole ticket, from
President down, larger majority than we
have ever given any democrat before.

The coon hailed the skunk. How came
