Fremont Cannot BE Elected.-The Only
Way Ia Defeat Buchanan Is 10 Withdraw
Fremont.
II Is absolutely certain that Fremont win not
receive any of the 100 electoral votes of the South
en States
1t is absolutely certain that he viii not receive
any of the n electoral votes of Pennsylvania.
Il is absolutely certain that he will not receive
any of the l3 electoral votes Of Indiana.
It requires 149 electoral votes to elect Presi-
dent of the United States by the people. The votes
above mentioned deducted from the whole 296
electoral votes of all the States leave oy 1885, or
IL less than majority.
1t is absolutely certain, therefore, that Fremont
cannot be elected by the people.
Ifthe election goes into the House Of Represen-
tatives, it requires l6 of the 81 States to elect
President Of the United States
1t is certain that Fremont will not receive the
vote of any of the fifteen Southern States.
1t il certain that he will not receive the vote OF
California nor Iowa.
II is therefore certain that he cannot be elected
by the House of Representatives.
While il is certain that Fremont cannot be elect
ed, 1t Is none the less important that Buchanan
should be defeated, and an end put to the Demo
cratic misrue under which the country has suffer-
ed since the close Of Mr.. Fillmore's administration.
MT. fllmOre mas btfon8tu III Tic OOuSncTn e1tatcb,
while Fremont has nome There are hundreds of
thousands Of voters In those States, who believe
that the further ascendency of the Democratic
party will prove disastrous TO the best interests of
the country, and who desire its overthrow.
If the Northern opponents of the administration
are sincere in their hostility we call upon them to
give evidence Of their sincerity by Withdrawing
Fremont from the canvass and allowing the OppO-
sition to Buchanan to concentrate on Mr.. Fillmore
In the North, as it has already done in the South.
If they are SO false to their own professions as
to refuse to do this, we call upon all honest voters
who are sensibe of the evils brought on the couu-
try by this weak and wicked administration, and
who desire their removal, to give their votes to
Mr.. Fillmore, instead of throwing them away on
Fremont.
It is all the more certain that Fremont will lose
Pennsylvania and Indiana in the contest next week.
from the fact in measuring his strength against
the Democrats in the State elections he had the
assistance in those States Of nearly the whole
American vote. That vote, in those States, will
next week be given to Mr.. Fillmore.
If the Republican party is inferior to the DEM
ocratic in those States when reinforced by the
Americans, it is insanity to suppose it can cope
successfully with the Democratic party alone.
Men OF the North will you assist in the per-
petuation of the wicked and atrocious policy OF
the Democratic party, by throwing away your
votes on candidate whose election is impossibley
viii you consent that the flibustering doctrines
Of the Ostend manifesto shall gain practical as.
tendency in our government
The hour of decision draws night IF you throw
away your votes on Fremont, you insure tho cleo
ton of Buchanan Are you prepared to assume
so fearful responsibility?
