is generally better pOlled than almost any
other State. and yet we have had at least
10000 more voters than votes at every
election since that of 1874. For the last
three years, our State has been canted TO
this side or that by less than Three Thou
sand Voters, while we had at least Thirty
Thousand who might have voted but did
not. And so in other States. Our edver-
saries shout Justify over their ascendancy
in three-f omths Of the States, when that
ascenduncy is based upon the needless in

But there are thousands voting regularly
against Us because of the words Democrat
and Democracy who do not object to
anything the Wing party does or proposes,
but only to what it is falsely charged with
seeking or wishing to do. If they saw Us
as we truly are, they would be heartily
with us; but they listen to the ISLANDERS of
our more reckless adyersaries, and oppose
Us because of alleged aims we never
cherished nor dreamed Of.
This is deplorable, but not irremediable.
Patient effort and kindly exposition can
overcome it. Many are violent, uncandid,
embittered; but there are tens of thousands
who will read and heed if the facts are but
fairly placed before them. They will not
give their time to attendance on Wing
Meetings but they will each take home
tract or speech to his own fireside, and
there see what we have to say for our
selves. Especially will they do this if

proper effort were made to secure them.
