Not a Question of Politics

The people of this Congressional District
ought to be able 10 see beyond the end of their
nose, in the present canvass. 1t is all very
we'll to stick to party under ordinary circum-
stances, but when nothing is to be gained and
everything is to be lost by such course, IL
don't paw For the last ten or twelve years OF
democratic misrule in Congress, though money
was poured out like water, and although mil
lions ofdOllars worth property and hundreds
of lives were annually sacrificed on our Great
Lakes for the want of harbor Improvements,
not dollar could be had for any such purpose.
Through Gen. Paine's influence during his
first term, We have appropriations for the i'm
provement of every harbor along the Lake
Shore liberal appropriations, too, that will
accomplish The end in view.
Remember, then, voters, whether you are Re-
publicans or Democrats, that in voting for H
E. Paine, you are voting for an active, earnest,
influential representative of the interests of
your district-the man who has done more for
the interests of the district in the one term he
has served, than any Democratic Representa-

THANKSGIVING REORGANIZATION

As christian people, it is our duty at all
times to return thanks to the Most High,
Giver of every good and perfect gift, for the
countless blessings which he is continually
pouring down upon us; yet 1t Is time-hon-
ored custom chiefly so TO do, when as now,
the wear is drawing to a close.
Therefore / LUCIUs FAIRCHILD, Governor of
the State of Wisconsin, do Recommend that
Thursday. the 29th of November. Prox,,
be set apart and observed as a day of thanks
giving and praise to Almighty God for the
continued preservation of our free institu-
tions; for the preservation of the States uni
ted for the preservation of our lives and
health; for restored tranquility, prosperity
and happiness for our general thrift and for
the untold blessings He has vouchsafed to us.
And do earnestly Recommend that upon
that day my fellow citizens throughout the
State, abstain from all unnecessary labor
that all stores, workshops and places of bust
ness, of whatever sort be closed, and that the
people, forsaking and forgetting all the cares
of life, assemble in their houses of public Wor-
ship, and bowling down in grateful alteration
ut the throne ofthe Infinite Father, unite IN a
general Thanksgiving to Him for the manifold
boun ties received at His hands.
With our songs of praise, let there also be Of
fered up feryent prayers for His continued
watchfulness And above all, let our suppl
cations ascend for the diffusion of pure and I'M
defiled religion-the only true safeguard oflib
erty-that our nation may be kept in the way
of the righteous, and ourselves, at all times,
acceptable TO God.
Given under nv hand and the Seal of the st. in
Il. s. the Executive Chamber at Madison,
this twenty sixth day of October, in
the year of our Lord one thousand

The ,074, pages of oral and documental ev-
idence reported by the Congressional Com
mittee on Reconstruction, establish beyond
doubt that the clamor which johnson started
and is now engineering for the immediate ad-
mission of the Rebels to representation, has
these objects
l. TO enable those who plunged the South
ern States into secession and brought on the
war to resume their former sway in the Gov
eminent.
II. To obtain pay for the slaves that were
emancipated.
III. To make the nation pay for the DANA
ges the South sustained by the war.
" To compel the United States to assume
The rebel debt.
V. To repudiate the Union debt if the Reb-
ell debt is not assumed
The evidence, moreover, shows that when
Lee and Johnston surrendered, the Rebels
would have accepted any terms of pardon
whatever; but that under, the encouragement
aud patronage of President johnson, their at
titude ofsupplants for mercy is changed, and
they now stand confident hostile, defiant, and
dictate demands.
1t shows that lawlcssncss, violence, disloyal-
| ty and sectional hate abound throughout the
South in localities where these passions did
not exist until they were stimulated and en-
boldened by the course of the President.
1t shows that by pardons, restoration Of
confiscated estates, gifts of the public proper.
ty, and favoritism of every kind, rebels have
been lifted up and loyal men put down in the
South, until treason there is more fashionable
and Unionism more odious than they were du
ring the war, and as a consequence loyal life
and property are the sport of disloyal hate ant
brutality.
1t shows that secret organizations exist anC
are multiplying throughout the South whose
object is hostility to the government of the
United States and to q permanent union will
the North.
1t shows that in case of foreign war the reb
els would rise anew and openly take sides
against u.s.
That testimony prepared every member O
the able committee before which it was taker
for the murders of black and white Unionist,
that have made the South wet with blood-fo
the flight of Union families Northward-for thu
burning OF freedmen's school houses, and th,
IdSSaSSlnalloH oI freedman Bureau officers
1t prepared them to see that nowhere in thu
South was the 4th of July celebrated. excep
by negroes.
1t has prepared them to see black womel
ard children shot down for strewing flowers
upon the graves of Union soldiers
1t prepared them to see the shameful an(
ravcnous massacre at Memphis, and the sub
sequent horrible sacrifice of the Unionists o
New Orleans, and the drowning of the remain
ing loyalty of Louisiana in the blood of thu
loyalists-a gigantic crime encouraged by An
drew johnson and afterward defended by hin
on the stump.
Voters throughout the North and West
could anything be more insane than for us t,
introduce the elements of hate, disloyalty ant
violence which Andrew Johnson has kindleC
throughout the South, into our Government
without first securing safeguards? We wouIt
deserve to be destroyed if we did it; and. wha
is more, we would be destroyed.-N Y. Til

Tors : Hale has doubtless been flattered with
the idea that he can get into the legislature
next winter; but he will have his eve opened
after the election, and see that he began po-
litical life very foolishly. The Republicans of
Kenosha county, will not throw away their
votes at the coming election, upon candidates
who have been brought out by the copperheads
for mischievous purposes.
Another sheep, is also being lead TO the
slaughter-Mr Handbook, soldier puts him
self IN opposition to Major Cole also a soldier
ana nominated on the regular Republican I'm
ion ticket for the office of Register of Deeds
1t is difficnlt to see in what consists the merit
of Mr.. Hambrook's claim 1t will not be
claimed that he is a better soldier than Maj
Cole: Handbook has no better record for
morality, sobricty, and industry, than Major
Cole. lift be said that Handbook needs office
Tor a support, 1t may also be said of Cole, that
he depends. upon his own efforts for living.
In point of literary attainment, no one will
pretend Handbook to be Coles equal What
possible reason therefore, can any Republican
give for voting for Handbook in preference to
Cole? No republican who has a shadow of re-
gard Tor political consistency, will throw away
MS vote upon candidate who comes before
the people under copperhead auspices.
III Is SAID that Handbook protests that he
does not belong to the copperheads that is, at
the present time, matter Of but little conse.
quence; he accepts an endorsement from that
party, aad looks to that party for his main
superiority hoping to carry enough repub-
iican votes, to make up the required number
for his election. Politicians as well as euues-
| TRANS, sometimes manage to ride two horses
| this is no extraordinary feat when both horse:
are running in the same direction; but wher
the two horses are running in opposite lirec
lions, it is hazardous business 1t will moi
be surprising therefore, if Handbook should
catch bad fall on the sixth of November
next.
This protesting to regard it an innocent mat
ter to run for office on a Peoples Ticket" il
silly pretension and cannot win. The cop
perheads as every one knows, have gotten III
a county ticket, and called it peoples Ticket,
because they dare not call it democratic The,
assume false garb for the purpose, if posi-
ble to deceive simpletons and week minded
people.

For the TeIegri
Sheep going 10 fhe SIau0bfeP

a lew sheep are being lead to the slaughter
oy the copperhead party of this county. tt is
understood that young man in the town of
Farls' by the name of George Hale, has been
brought out at the instigation of the copper
democracy, as candidate for the office of
member OF Assembly. George is said to be
quite young yet, and little skilled in tbe de-
'ious ways of politics. Hence the conner
Johnson party, have concluded to use him for
special purpose; they have not the remotes+
idea OF electing him; they only expect his
nomination will help Brown, the copper candi-
uate Ior Congress to few votes. Youno Hale
mas oeen soldier; some of his friends
pretend that he has not identified himself
with the copperjohnson party. IT matters
very little whether he belongs to that party
or not; any man who has been soldier and
allows his name to be used for an Office Inv
that party, against the regular republican
nomination, is entitled to far less resnect from
republicans, than an out and out buttarnr+
democrat. 1t is pity that young soldier
should listen and be mislead by evil counsel.

The Issue.

The issue between the Republican and cop
pcrjohnson parties is distinct and clearly de-
fined. The two parties have precisely the
same attitude, they had during the war of the
rebellion. There have been no changes, except
that few renegade republicans, have gone
over to the ranks of the enemy for office. The
copperhead democracy north, and the rebel
democracy SOUTH stand on the same platform,
both ardently support Andy Johnson
Southern rebels, bushwhackers, and traitors,
are elamerous for the same policy, now advo-
Gated by the northern democracy. Every one
of these blood stained traitors, would vote the
democratic ticket in this county, if he had the
opportunity of so doing. Among all the men
on whom rest the guilt of treason through
out the Southern States, not one man can be
found, who would vote the republican ticket

MESSRS EDITORS :

In late issue of your paper observed an
article over the signature of "F. Newell" who

reluctantly acted as Chairman Of a Mass Con
vention, held without distinction of party at
Agricultural Hall, a few days previous. From
this 1t appears that this redoubtable Captain
OF the Home Guards" has taken the respon
slbility of warning the faithful, and kindly in
forming them that "this humble individual'
mas taken the johnson side of the political
issues, OF the day, and that the Democrats have
snaeH him out" Singular it is, indeed. that
the olfactory nerves of the Captain could not
have ''smelt' the odor of Democracy in that
convention over which, with great dignity, no
doubt, he was then presiding. And further
more it is strange "'tis passing strange" that
the Captain whose human sympathies are so
great as to extend even to the protection of
"polliwogs," in all their just and inalenable
rights, should deem it his duty to launch his
thunderbolt OF warning (alias squib) at me.
