Look Well to your Tickets!

The party with which the Friends of Free
dom and Free labor has to contend on Tues
day next, has proved itself in every way com
petant to seek TO carry its ticket through
by fraud. They will doubtless issue tickets
Of all shades of mixture for the purpose Of
deceiving honest and uususpecting VOTERS
Let every voter examine his ticket thorough
ly, therefore, and be certain that all is right
before depositing it in the ballot box. Too
much care cannot be exercised upon this
point. Ifany cannot read, be ready to furn-
ish them with votes, and watch we'll the tricks
Of tn. Slavery party. Divide your forces in
the morning, and above all appoint efficient
persons to see that every voter Is out.

LOOK OUT!

We have good authority for saying that the
Bank clique will make great blow this week.
through the Democrat charging DR.. Peck with
having been Know Nothing, and many other
things not worth mentioning. Now we assert.
without fear of successful contradiction that DIR.
Peck not only never joined The Know NothingSbut
that he never even so much as put his foot into
their Lodge Room True, the Worthy Chief"
of the Know Nothings repeatedly solicited him to
join thcm, but the DR.. as often declined. Why
did they not make this charge at an earlier day ?
Why wait until on the very eve of election The
is plain enough-thcy thought this base
falsehood would be exposcl before voting time.

THOSE $50 YOTESI

A few days since, we met prominent
democrat from ottowa county, who was an
active and leading spirit in the Representative
convention which nominated Norton He said
the delegates from Wood county claimed that
Norton could carry $50 votes which no other
man in the party could get Are these not the
same $50 Rnov Nothings phom he Jargoined
to sell to the Locofocos 1t was this pledge
alone that induced Mr.. Cole to Withdraw his
name from the convention and submit to Nor
tons nomination. Cole and his friends have
discovered the deception which was practiced
upon them, and will teach these political trick
sters lesson that they will long remember.

slang. We have fought several political bat
tles but never before saw men who were 81
completely thrown adrift upon salt river with
out redeemiug quality, as are the banl
clique Locofocos of this county.

GvIn the last number OF the Democrat
we find the following grave charge made
against us:
"Yoa were told last week that you lacked
capacity for a first rate BLACKBOARD, and we
believe it,"
Mr.. Dodge told US "last week " that we
"lacked capacity for first rate blackguard"
and now he repeats it, so it must be true
AS we have no aspirations in thai direction,
perhaps we never shall be " first rate" or
even second rate " blackguard." We are
willing to concede Mr.. Dodge's superior abil
ties in that direction.
