n confident announcements "Your
4 Republican party is its death throcs.
After election 1t will bc so dead that il
won't kick. ~ The radicals call Presi-
dent Johnson the great usurper; but
he will be found to be the great use
tur-sr Of the radicals The withdrawal
of Leeinsurcs the defeat of their judicial
ticket; Mr.. Trumbull will not carry
his own county," Such was the talk
4 before election. But election has pass
ed; and what now? Is johnson the
. use-up-er" of Republicanism Is this
latter $50 dead that it can't kick ~ or
is it even " in its death throes Has the
withdrawal of Lee insured defeat ?'
Has not Lee i" carried his own

ed by several thousand oyer his COM
petitor? Such were the lies, and such
is tho truth. ~. ..,..g..g.. ,...,.,.,. ,.. -,
Iasaaft. THE wAvERLY NEWS. su .usa3
Come nearer home. The Waverly
Necs was filed up with the most bra
zen-faccd Justification and brag. AS
early as Sep. 9th it said: To taaas ,"
The radicals are terrified, are reeIing
and totering [!l and will soon be among
the things that were. The people are
after them, and will arrest them at this
great desertion from the Yanks, does it
not show conclusively that the radical
party is becoming demoralized ? Verify
we believe that the last platform Of
that party has been written, that they
are now fighting their last fight, and
after this falls campaign is over, will
not retain sufficient vivacity to reorgan-
ize and enter the field again" m ..
Only week before election, the
NeWs affirmed: . 49,.
Our foes are dumb-founded. If Al
lison will repeat his parrot speech in
Noble, and place his majority at 2,O0O.
l!-remember that Allison's majority
turned out to be $500! Such conser-
natives as Capt. Rozelle and A. F.
BrowD,of Cedar Falls are on the stump.
in behalf of Thompson, and their eff |
forts will have a telling effect on the !
election. Mr.. Brown is probably q
man Of as much influence as any other !
in this county, and il will not be sur
prising if through his influence Black |
Hawk should give Thompson a good
majority. E!-only 1900 majority
against him! ] 1t is very doubtful yet
how the district will go. Hopes are
entertained of its redemption. Yes.
by means Of the death-circular forgery,
which only reduced Hubbard's MAORI
ty to little short of 5,O0O!l We have
no fears for:the result; but 70 strike
terror to the guilty souls of the radicals,
we want to see such conservative ma
jority as was never before given. Be
up and at work. The radical press
throughout the country is now strug-
CLING in an UNCERTAIN existence. In
the first district Gen. Warren is driving
Wilson to the wall, and Wilson has b
despaired of being elected. Gen. War
ren's election will be great triumph
over the radicals" &C. n. Il. Will
sons majority proved to be only about
5000. .s.-. s'-f'.' ."
The editor of the Wavcrly Ncocs told !.
us in our Office, "that Allison would
be defeated easy, that Waverly and
Bremen county would go Johnson with
a rush, Tits Republican majority is
1851 that Cedar Falls would no doubt
go conservative, and probably Black
Hawk &c. -'. &.
Now does not this look supremacy /
ridiculous after election? We see that
all the johnson papers, from New York /
to Waverly, are filled with the same
sort of lying. And do they now. in
view of the facts, confess thatthey were
and humbly beg pardon of
the people for the deception they thus
practised? No! deception is their or
binary business; and they go right on
with it, as they have for years. When
will their poor deluded followers open !
their eyes, and see how miserably they
are hoodwinked and be- fooled? Let /
no decent man of common wit be 80
simple as ever to believe or care for the
lying brags Of any democratic paper,
after the experience of the last ten
years ... ..4... ..s.5t-ss ..
