The soldiers Ticket.

The only hope the Democrats have Of
cIectipg tae ticket which they have put
before the people, is by creating sympa-
thy for it as soldiers ticket. Let us
see how well this claim is founded, and
whether the soldiers Of Pierce county ap-
prove Of this movement.
A soldiers convention was called or
tho 9th inst. The notice was brief; most
of the soldiers did not approve of the
movement; but few were present, n nd =
partial ticket was nominated. The next
day the Union Convention met--a full
convention and largely made up of SOL
ders, several Of whom were ia the con-
vention the previous day. This conven
ton nominated full ticket. The soldiers
were satisied-the independent move
ment was dropped, and neither the ticket
nor proceedings were furnished for pub
Iication.
On the goth inst, six democrats met to
put out ticket. Feeling the hopeless
ness of their cause, and wishing to cover
their political sakedness with some good
clothes, even if they were borrowed, Judge
Foster and his associates grimly uncover
the grave of the soldiers ticket, ressusitate
it and place 1t before the people, pedging
themselves to work for it. 1t was ghast-
" joke. These are the auspices under
which this ticket is brought out. Two
years ago, in the Mcclellan campaign,
these same democrats lore about banners
with skeletons of soldiers painted on
them, and laughed in derisiye glec at
sold Abe's pets" Now they love the
soldier--they are the especial guardian
of his interests. Tho cats ears protrudc
out of that meal exceedingly. Be honest,
gentlemen. You can't win the game by
stealing trumps out Of the pack in this
way. 1t is too late for Judge Fosters
party to set up in business as the soldiers
friends.

do not forget on what field, nor in what
service he received the wound which
made him cripple for life. We do not
forget that he was with the gallant Con-

A Talk with Union Men.

There are two tickets now in the field
in this county, and both are mainly made
up of good men. One ticket it put forth
by the Republican Union party-that
party which upheld the country through
o terrible war, and IS now guarding it
from the perils which environ 1.-THE
other is put forth by the remains Of the
nearly defuuct Democratic party.
We hold that every Union man should
vote the whole straight Union ticket, for
this reason that we believe the policy
Of that party to be right, and duty and
interest alike demand that it be sustain
cd, and it can be sustained only by keep
ing the organization whole.
4 vote is too grave matter to be
governed BY prejudice, personal prefer.
ence, or within; it should be controlled
by principle. Nothing bat the personal
unftness AMI unworthuess Of candi-
date, is a sufficient excuse for q member
of the party to which he belongs to bolt
him.
The Union party is strong in this Co,
but IS not SO strong but it may be de-
reated by.internaI divisions. This the
Democrats know, and in the hope OF
creating this division. they, too, nominate
a ticket compo ed mainly Of Union men.
\ Democratic convention puts out tick
Ct with bat one Democrat upon i. Can
not Union men plainly see what thor
o! ject is!
Some good Union men think i makes
~ particular difference who they vote for
for county off es. But it does make u y-
tai difference with the welfare and
strength of the party Suppose a mer-
chant ia dealing with his customers.
should take no change from them-just
take the even dollars and let the small
change goi how long would it take to
break him! Now local Offices are the
small change of n political party. and if it
gives the scripts TO its opponents, it will
soon find that they have the big bills.
Fellow Republicans and Union Men.
You who stood firm through the dark
days in the years just passed, let is stand
firm now, and quit ourselves like men.

~ A "rose by any other name
would smell as sweet" but copperhead
by any other uame will not smell any
sweeter. Judge Fosters National Con-
sentative and Democratic Convention can
not get into good odor with the people
by nominating soldiers for offices which
they do not want. Every one knows
that that Convention nominated soldiers
from necessity, not choice. Like many
people down south. in their extremity
they applied TO tho soldiers for protection
We do not believe the boys in blue will
