All Right Ahead :

As 70 anticipated, the nomination of
Mr.. RoBB for the Office Of Representative,
meets with : hearty second from the De-
mocrscy in syery part Of the district from
which s~s hsve heard. His personal po-
pularity and wsis Known ability to perform
tho duties Of the position, together with
the fact that be has not been identified
with the local difficulties which have un.
fortunately existed among us, eminently
fit him as the standard bearer of the par
~ in this campaign. The Democracy are
united. enthusiastic, and determined to
achieve success.
On the other hand, the Republicans are
dissatisfied, disbesrtensd, ard the candid
men in their party freely acknowledge the
hopelessness Of their condition. They are
sensible Of the fact that certain defeat
awaits them, and they but lily disk uise
their feelings.
Lot not this assurance, however, have
the effect to cause our Democratic friends
to relax their efforts in behalf of the De-
mocratic candidate. We should not be
satisfied with mere triumph-we want a
large majority not only for our candi
date for Representative, but the entire
Democratic ticket. To secure this, mork
must be done-diligent, united, continued
work.
Democrats DrxcoxBE and RoBs can
and will be elected 1t is for you to say
how high their msjorities shall be and 10
proportion 70 the work you perform will
be tae result.

On Monday last very large audience
assembled at Cassady's new Hall, to hear
the Gubernatorial candidates.
Gen. DoDGE opened the discussion in
strong, candid, convincing argument of
one hour. His plain, clear and logical
statement Of facts carried conviction with
it-while bis manner throughout and the
marked courtesy with which Gen. Dodge
treated his opponents, won the confidence
OF bis auditors. The most bitter of the
Republicans could not help respecting the
man. There was nothing of the mere
politiciah about him-nothing Of the de.

widely with them upon vital questions,
yet he was honest in that difference and
could give reason for the faith that was
in him.
