truth has not half been told and under the circum-

knowing that in the appointment of officers he
has violated his oath-that in all his official acts
he has cheated the people, plundered the state,
and acted the corrupt and wicked man, is no bet

No honest Nan can support him!
Shall Wisconsin be given over as prey to cor
rupt men who fear neither God nor man; who re-
gard neither official oaths nor private integrity
who trample on law and spurn the constitution !;
who encourage crime and uphold robbery; whose
sole aim is to enrich themselves at the expense of
their fcllow-menl
II such is in accordance with Democratic tea

consin Democrats who earn our bread bv our in

1t is not Democracy; it has no kin with the
eternal principle which is based upon Justice and
Equality, and whose corner stone is Honesty and
Integrity in public and private life. And he is
no Democrat who teaches and practices their OPP
posite.
Having careuIIy surveyed the wnoIe ground
we take occasion to say that the Appleton Cres-
ccntwill have neither part nor lot with Barstow-
ism. We ask nofavors; we shall shrink from no
responsibilities.
From the Je6crsonion. (JcfcrsOn, Jefferson co.
Their conduct with some respectable excep-
tions) was evidently unbccoming the representa-
tivcs of great party to say the least of 1t. The
certain facts-that nineteen delegates whose seats
were contested, were allowed a vote on the ques-
ton of their own admission or expulSion-tliat
the new counties were represented by delegates
who did not reside in the counties-that delegates
were substituted by the vote of the convention
in place of others who were temporarily absent
that these were undenaby acts of this conven-
.
acts All of the above is chargeable to the Bars
tow party. and was of course calculated to work
in his favor and secure his nomination. Lastly,
the resolutions adopted, together with what we
have before enumerated, precudes the possibility
of our support to the ticket. because OF ITS NOM
nation by this convention, and we sincerely
hone that n ticket may be made up yet, that we
can more cordially endorse. We have not sta
ted ore tenth part of the Objectionable portion OF
the proceedings and there is little else but OBJ
icctionable in the whole. We know that n large
portion of the party will bolt the ticket, and the
proceedings of the convention will be rcpudiatcd
and the ticket trW be defeated. We have hoped
| for the best but now realize the worst; we have
no personal reflections and now only mourn the
untimely adoption of the demagogue policy

II will not be out of place for us to state why
it 1.-THE ticket is obnoxious to us and to thou
sands of others, aside from any personal consld
erations, and to protest against the manner IL
which it is forced upon the Democratic party
The plan of forming Democratic Convention
hit upon by the Central Committee, by represen
ting land and not population, is an entirely new
one and subversive of all the doctrine and prac
tee of the party. 1t was resorted to as means
of securing the success of the present nominee
against others at least equally deserving, and IL
not to take the next consistent step and repudl
ate the creature of it. So much briefly, for that
The next unheard of and foreign element intro
duced into the struggle for the purpose OF obtain
ing a triumph over democrats, was the LiqH0
QHestton-and we shall notb disputed when VI

other ground than that-that a majority of tn
delegates was got together on that issuc-tha
it was the only test applied to candidates for tina

often said before that that question is not one q
. issue between the two great parties.
1t is an entirely personal queston-hahle, pei
hans to become a party one, but which has no
Vet reached or even approached that point In
Wings or the Republicans, as an organization
hare not touched IL: or if they have touched it a
all, it has been by using the democratic party
as in this instance, as a cats paw to handle VIVA
they shrewdly foresaw would burn their hngers
1t is with difficulty that we refrain from tul
ther and more pointed remarks on this subject.
