Our Sta e election occurs on Vresdh7 next;
consequently before weissue another paper,the
neole viii heve decided upon the men who
SIRE TO guide It's destinies, for the next two years
In the greater interest that is felt N the more
absorbing topic of the war for the UnlNn' we
cannot expect the usual amount OF eject 'heef-
ing excitement, nevertheless we must NOT lor-
oct that upon the issue of this elechon depends,
| in a measure, many interests OF oar H1a'e as
well as the more immediate one OF aiding 10 the
fullest extent in the great st'rggie for .la.iOnal
existence Our ability to IN nsh this "a VIII
depend very much upon whe,he" we have our
St,le Offices filled by men who enter luto the
matter heart and soul, from principe: r by m-n
who have few fe ,ings or sympathieS II common
with the National Administration, and espond
70 its demands only because their constitution
al obliratiops admit Of no denial. Such, we ne-
I;eye. IS the difference between The two sets of
candidate now before the people )or the seve al
State Offices ~ ...J + h.
On the one hand we blve mea, for the most
mart, who have been lied, integ ttvjudg-'
ment, disc e ion and general fitness for the off
ces to which tIsss@ haze been nominated, has
been proved and is admitted by all. Whatever
my be stated to the coE.a"s ny tne,t oppo-
nents, we know is only for political eject
Their views upon the matters more nea'lJ con-
nccted with the policv OF the General Govern
ment are in perfect accord with the National
| Administration, and therefore we know that
whatever is demanded of our Stste by a lofty
patriotism and unswe:ving devotion to the Up-
| ion, will be, under their Administration, met
with energetic prompti.lde. On the other hand
the opposition has presented men unified and
inexperienced in the administration of StGte af-
fairs. They might prove themselves competent
aud every way worthy but is this time fortry-
ing experiments? in this crisis of our Nation
al affairs, would it be the part of wisdom to ex-
change certanties lol uncertainties, to run tie
risk of placing n ouf highest State offices in
competent and inexperienced men? Il it a
tim. foc loyal, U0ion-loying WiTconsil 70 he
governed b. men who have few principles and
fewe, symrapbies with the National Admins
a;ion or with the great MESS of the people of
the Free STATES? 1t is hardly pecesssry 20 su-
swer these questions il the negative. That re-
Spouse has a!reauy been predetermined by the
voters of Wisconsin.
There is out one way for loyal, Union-loving.
me to give such negative RESPONSE, and that
/ is by voting the Republican Union Ticlet, as
given al the iesd Of our columns, eutire The
so-caled Union tic'.et now differs only one
name from our own. The candidates cor Bank
Compt oller and Superintendent of Public In
struction have withdrawn their names from the
canvass, satisfied that they could CIus render
more effectual aid to the Union cause than by
dividing and dstractins the Union vote of the
State. The question is therefore between the
men presented bv the Republican Union State
Convention, ald those presented BY the regu-
lar partzan Democ site State Coagelltlon they
are all intensely pa lizan IN their principles ard
predilect ms, while the men we commend are
chosen from Goth PARTIES the only test being
their loyslty to the Unioh snd TIE Constitution
aud their qualification to dlsch; re the duties
Tor ssiaicll they are elected -s-....s
| For these reasons, we urge upon our irie IDS
ihro ,ghot the )Hrty the necessity 0 coming
out TO the polls on Tuesday next, en- masse,aud
voting he Republ lean Union Ticket.
