wpasd give it the'sligntest control oTeruhe exec
utivc wiki any effective influence in the'iegis7
latiye branch OF the government
It was a wise and prudent step, delioeyets> de-
termined on, and one which the great body Of
the people will cordially approve Of and :atify at
the polls. 1t was the only way open, to save
Massachusetts, from the reckless mismanagement
aud extravaganza that has Characterized the gov
/ ernment OF thr Commonwealth for the iast two
years IT was the only way tliat was left to save
the republican party from being utterly absorbed
BY the Gardner factions and converted into amere
cipher in the affairs Of the state -.
The state of parties III Worcester county, IS
widely different from that OF most.af the other
counties in the State. and 1t must be bore IN
mind, that the very men in the Repnbie9p party
who participated in coalitions in other counties,
as matter of necessity, and almost Of compul-
sion, are earnest IN their Congratulations Tor The
noble stand taken by the Republicans in old
Worcester. They know and feel that we have
BY our independent action here, taken step
upon which depends the security of Republican
majority in the Senate 20 be relied upon in all
emergencies, aud raised the only barrier that
has been, or can be raised this year,,againsr the
willy schemes of the arch demagosqs who stil1
sits in the Gubernationa chair, aud the political
azaroni, who in every section Of the State, are
only too happy to do their masters bidding, Of
Their at the expense Of the Treasury or oven
Tor the crumbs that fall from the chief mag
istrote's private table.
1t is well known to most, if not all, of our
readers that Senator Wilson was most earnest and
untirng in his efforts 70 persuade the Republi-
cans Of Massachusetts, to refrain from nominal
ing State ticket against the Gardner Americans
the present year We disagreed with him as to
the policy and wisdom Of the course he recon.
mended but as pablo journalists, we have ac-
guessed in the decision of the matter ut which
the eonsenioA arrived, for the sake Of peace aid
harmony; bu; We are happy to know that Mr.
Wilson heartily approves Of the course now pur.
sued by the Republicans of Worcester County in
tAe matter Of straight ticket.
sastrongly impressed was he Of the necessity
Of maintaining Republican control IN one branch
Of the Legislature, SO as to have some check upon
the domination Of the Executive and the schemes
Of the Garduer party to peEpetua.e its poser
SO strongly did he feel the importance of the con-
siderations we have named, that only rweek pre-
yious 10 the meeting Of the Comfy Conventions,
ne said to us in oouyeggation which we had with
MIN uponthe subject, in our Office, (" If you can
elect straight tickctin Worcester county, in
Heavens name do it" Such were his words, and
saeh. We doubt not, are his views atthe present
time.
We car elect straight ticket and we sAelfeleet
one this year, bg a larger nagierit than has been
given Dy any party in Worcester eoan0y for years,
and all the efforts of Gardner and his tools will
avail nothing in tb'yartiag The Yiehes Of the up-
