The Clayton County Journal, Republi.
can, and the official paper of the county,
says:-
The Dubuque Times has hoisted the
Union State Ticket, at its masthead, aud
gives it warm support. Perhaps Bro.

OF the State, at the.con;emptible manner
in which they were treated by the South

assure Our co temporary that If the ticket
is supported in this sec,ion, it will be with
considerable reluctance"
