al chart, on which was printed the names
of the candidates, and the platforms of the
three great parties to the last Presidentia !
struggle. Curiously enough, upon TINT sen.
tence in the Republican platform which
reads: "Murders. robberies and arsons have
teei1 instigated and encouraged, and the Of.
feFders .heEe been Piicwed to go unpunish

"murders," and another on the word "un.

that it is our fixed purpose to bring the per.

their accomplices, to q sure and condgn
