The Election.

lating on the issues which divide the two
parties-democrats and republicans. There
was time when the name national repub-
lieans was idolized and sustained. The bo-
gus republicanism Of the present day is
merely intended as a specific for disunion.
Democrats Do you see our ticket ?
and.do you not see on that ticket the names
Of men who have done most to relieve the
country-at least out of the house of war
like bondage? Prominent, and first upon
the ticket, stands the name Of the Com
mander-in-Chief Of the volunteer forces in
the late Indian war. His acts speak for
themselves. No other commentary is ne
cessary.
The 6rst Yan that appears on the repre-
sentative ticket is W. W. MILLER, a man
Of most excellent forecast, genuine ability
and experience man true to his God,
bis country and himself-honest, compe-
tent aud faithful to the constitution-the
only requisite qualification under the JEFF.
fersonian doctrine.
The next candidate on the ticket is STE
PHEN GUTHRIE. Those who know him
know full well that he is regular patri-
areh and patrieiGa in the school of demo-
cratic poltics-that be is a man of un-
blemished moral character, and that we
cannot improve upon the encomiums thus
presented, and also, man who, when he
was member of the legislature two years
ago, on attempt was made to ensnare him
under false pretences Into the tolls of
knownothingism, but were unsuccessful in
their undertakings; be went to the door,
and went no farther.
As to B. F. SHAW, who is the third can.
didatr on the ticket for representative, we
need not be expected TO say any thing.
The bravery, as exhibited on the feld-the
fortitude with which he overlook and over
come all opposition during our late Indian
war--his boldness, and at the same time,
benevolence to captors-all these amiable
qualities point him out ns not only deserv-
ing, but gOrthy to occupy the position for
which he has been nominated.
AS to the qualifications Of Mr.. BAKER,
who is another Of our nominees, we will
not here stop to discuss, He has served
you faithfully three years in your legisla
tive councils, and on no occasion has ht
been found wanting of truth, faithfulness
and consistency. He will be elected by 9
large majority. y,
I. W. GLASGOW has been resident o.
the Territory since l845. He is one of the
Oldest residents Of the county, and is Q
man of strong stage horse sense besides
in every other respect, being perfect gen
tleman, lover of the constitution of oul
country, and deeply devoted to the inter
ests of the Territory. In order to reach
our shores and obtain residence, he ha.
passed through FIRE and food" Evei
generous and patriotic, he has advanced
large mems, (as many other citizens have
done) to assist in the successful prosecu
ton of the Indian war. He is no sardines
Who will not say but that the intelligent
patriotic and democratic nominee of tht
party for joint representative, Hon. VIM
NJ. Morrow, of Sawamish county, would
not better represent the interests of both
counties than his competitor ? The fact
is, the democratic party will give to Mr.
Morrow. in this county, as large major
ity as that obtained by any other candid
ate. Compare the abilities of Mr.. Nor
row and his opponent. The former, mar
of genuine ability, honesty of purpose, true
to his friends, would soar aloft, whilst the
latter would be, comparatively speaking
occupying the position of toad on or
ox's horn"
Democrats vote the WHOLE ticket, from
ISAAC L. STEVENS, down to the lowest
name thereon. Do not let the enemies Of
democracy gain even a temporary triumph
over us. Allow no Swapping or trading OIL
votes. With decided majority in the
county of\at least 100 votes, it is our duty
to elect the whole ticket, and if all but do
their duty, victory will be ours on Monday
next. This trading" lciH be resorted to-
1t is one of the games and devices of our
opponents, and we again caution democrat,
to beware, and exhort all to be at the polls
early on Monday next, with the uncOnguey.
able determination to do their whole duty.
