RESIDENTS OF MAsIToYoC COUNTY!

At this tiuie it is generally known by
every one within thirty miles Of town that
farmers are now getting Milwaukee prices
for their wheat, or ten cents per bushel
more than they ever before received. =
That is, there has he 'etofore been mar
gin OF ten cents per Dushel, between this
port and Milwaukee, to pay for extra
handling, plerage, &c, and that margin
Is now done away with and our buyers are
paying it directly to the farmer This
cansummation should, aud does we think,
gladden. every heart, for when the pro
lucers get good prices for their grain
they with every one around then, the
-torc-keeper, the manufacturer the pro-
fessionai man, all thrive Thus We see a
whereby ali classes are benefited, Re-
publican, Democrat. saint or sinner, each
according to the extent of his business. -
And what revolution has caused such a
wonderful change in our pecuniary inter
ests? You answer, the Improvement Of
the Ianitowoc Harhor Yes, that is
precisely the cause but let us ask, why
has it not been done before ? Surely the
Nanitowoc River has emptied its waters
into Lake Michigan for twenty years
past. the same As it does to-day Why,
then: have we not for dozen years past
had harbor at this place? The answer
is well known--'tis part Of the history
ct oar eountry-hecause 4 party was IN
power thar cared more for self agrandize-
uent than for the wants of the people y
party that did not believe internal in.-
provements would pay. During the last
thirty years Of Democratic reign there
was not as much Improvement OF rivers
and harhors "a Ne haze seen during the
past tiiree years, and even what little was
2eHe was nearly all in favor Of pampered
ari>tocraey In the sontl, from which poor
men received ne benefit whatever
Now isa't that a good record for par
ty which pyeteais to be..''of the people ?'
OF the-fiddiesticl1si The Democratic
party for more than twenty years was
nothing but horde Of office holders and
seekers. who-where the people became
disgusted and east them of-took up
arms and sought to destroy our Govern
ment.
Now look at the record Of the Repub-
ilcan party. Coming into power when
the nation was convaised with civi! war.
it first undertook the work Of saving the
nation, and having accomplished that
work with everything against it except
the CONSCIOUSNESS of knowing that jus
tlce and Right were on It's side, it sci
about DOING something for the people =
it made appropriations for Iiarlor i'm
provenents among its first acts, and as a
result of this wise action, every man,
woman and child is to a great or less ex-
tent benefited
Now which party deserves the support
Of voters, the one which never tried tiro'
many years of Government to help those
deserving of help, or the one which im-
mediately takes hold Of its work and not
only tries to accomplish good but really
succeeds in putting three or four dollars
more in the pockets of our farmers for
every load of wheat they bring to mar
ke5 ?
Let the people think of these things
and VOTE for the Republican Ticket.
