We have strong hopes Of the success OF our state
ticket provided proper exertions are put forth-pro
yided the commonwealth is thoroughly canFassed-
and provided the masses of the people, who care
nothing about offices or emoluments, and who WISH
an honest economical and just administration OF tne
government, are fully and truthfully informed IN re-
gard to the Legislative and other acts OF the dominant
party during the last few years.
Three of our candidates for Congress-Messrs
Eustis, Burke and sparks-have been actively al
work for some time, ard have performed yeomar
service Judge Wstterston, who has been lying quite
ill at Washington for month or more, reached TINS
CITY Yesterday morning in improved health, ana Will
we presume, Immediately enter upon shoroughcan
vass of the Third Congressional District wherein the
uuarrels among the Democracy have been getting
worse and worse ever since the unpopular nomination
Of Col. Davidson. His election, as well as that
Messrs Eustis and Burke, we look upon as fact a
impregnaby fixed as anything liable to the contlngen
cies Of the future can be. .-
But, while Congressional candidates have beef
doing good work, we have not heard a word from tn
candidates on the State ticket 1t is about time the.
were commencing the performance of their share o
the labor. Their opponents are in the field, AM
have been in the field for weeks, energetcally can
wasting with the masses and if they think they cal
enjoy Rip Van Wrinkle sleep for the next sixty day
and then wake up costly ensconced in snug berths
we fear they will find themselves mistaken. Fac
candidate for public Office, and each friend of tn
cause, should at once nerve himself for the contes
and labor increasingly until November, if he woul
win the victory for his party. By such means, al
| by such means only, can triumph be secured beyon
a peradventure.
We will remark, in conclusion, that all the new
which reaches us is of the most cheering characte
