Total. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.


IF we add to these the 70 votes
of the Southern States proper, we
shall have 161, or two more than
enough to elect, 159 being q ma
ioritY Of 3l7. But this result de-
ponds upon carrying all of the
Southern States. We ventured the
statement yesterday that the cleo
tion--as to the votes of the States
might depend on the three States
Of Virginia, Mississippi and Texas.
Our suggestion is now amply JUS
titled. Of course the votes ct those
States will be rejected by Congress,
but it is our duty, and the duty of
the people of the South, to see that
our Democratic allies Of the North
receive all the aid that we can give
them. IF they are willing to accept
these votes and to stand by them
to the end, we must put them into
their hands. Every consideration
Of honor, OF gratitude, and oil
safety, demands this from us.
Tt is now plain, as we stated in
the beginning, that the battle
ground Of the campaign is trans
ferred to the South. It is also plain
that it is more than ever our duty
and our interest to carry these
States. We mast carry them. We
must not only show that we have
done all in our power to assure the
success Of the Democratic party.
but Ne must prove that Radical
power III the South is eifectually
broken, preparatory to Q conolu'
sive demonstration that the whole
The weekly echo. [volume] (Lake Charles, Parish of Calcasieu, La.) 1868-1876, 1868-10-24

The situation is full Of peril, but It
is not desperate. The country and
the government may yet be rescued
from the grasp Of RadicaIism if
only the people of the South
awaken to full sense Of the
responsibility which is now inn
posed on them, and the Democrat
ic party be willing to stand by its
doctrines and the solemn enuncia-
lions of its convention. In order
that our meaning may be clearly
derstood, we viii state the case
as it now appears. The electoral
college consists Of 317 votes. OF
these 20 belong to the ten recon
structed and unreconstructed
The weekly echo. [volume] (Lake Charles, Parish of Calcasieu, La.) 1868-1876, 1868-10-24

Beyond these we cannot rely on
a single Northern vote; but we
may add the following as absolute

In the two latter States the re-
suit is q mere question of registra-
zion. If there is fair registration
they willboth go for Seymour, and,
as to Missouri, our information is
that the Democrats are quite con-
fident of their ability to carry the
State. Surprising that we carry
