THE DIFFERENCE.

The democrats have presented for the suf
frages of the people of this county, for mem.
Der Of the Legislature, John McCandIess, Of
Coal Valley, one of our most upright, intel
ligeut and worthy farmers; man who would
be Rn honor to, the county, should he be
elected-a man that no republican or demo-
crat in the county need blush to own as the
representative Of his county.
The radicals have fastened upon them, by
a truck aud dickcr bargain and sale, II. f.
sickles, whose qualities are well described
by Moline republican, in communication
in this paper.
Let us see whether the honest republicans
in the county will have the independence to
spurn the trickster and vote for the honest
farmer or whether they will permit him and
a few scalawags to thrust decent men out Of
their convention, and impose their scalawags
upon the party.

The Press says
Dr. Stairway. the candidate for circuit

years, is a successful physician and surgeon
ct New Boston, and is highly respected aud

cry part Of the county. He was surgeon

at present the examining surgeon of the
pension bureau IN this district. There are
many soldiers in the county, to-day, enjoy,
ing pension obtained chiefly through the
efforts in their behalf Of DR.. Stairway. We
hope these persons will now remember his
kind offices aud do all in their power for his
success, as a fitting return TO this faithful
officer and kind hearted, patriotic gentle.
man. He Is in every way qualified for the
office to which he aspres aud we proudly
present him to the people as the nominee Of
the democratic party.
Thomas ). Cummings, the Democratic
candidate for sheriff, is at present a deputy
sheriff and constable Of the county. In the
discharge Of his present duties, he has been

highly deserving Of the houors aud conf.
dence Of the people.
Our ticket IS nov completed, and as but
a short time remains for work, our efforts
tor the success Of this ticket should be con-
stan; aud vigorous.

EARTHQUAKE ON THE PACIFIC COAST.

We have Geographic adyices Of the most
fearful earthquake which has ever been ex.
perienced within the boundaries Of the Unit
ed States, in which the entire Pacific coast
from San Francisco to the northern boun.
daries Of the state shook like q dry leaf in
wind tottering down houses and causing the
greatest Of terror to thousands of people.
We are continually receiving dispatches
from that locality giving accounts Of shocks
Of earthquake which make great assures in
brick walls and shake the people into an
ecstasy Of terror. Most of the old residents
have been accustomed to them and they
cause no especial embarrassment. This last
one however is unprecedented for its extent
aud force. The following is the dispatch in
substance:
SlS FRANCISCO, Oct. 2l.-.-A heavy shock of
an earthquake occurred here a 1850 this morning,
tho motion being east md west. Several build
iugs were thrown down and Acousderable number
badly damaged On Pine, Valley, Clay and San
som streets near California street the ground sank,
throwing buildings out Of line. At present writ
ing q. m..-no estimate Of the damage can be
made, though Il Is considered comparatively
small. Several severe -hpoks have followed at
intervals since, creating great alarm among tho
people.
Tho shock was felt with great severity at san
Jose, whore numbers Of buildings were cOusidcra-
| bly, injured. II was also felt NJ GrasH Valley,
| MarysNillo, and other points north.
From year to year, the shocks seem to
grow more frequent and of u more serious
nature. This last visitation shook the entire
coast and the earth rocked as if subternn.
ian Ttaus were striving to turn it over
The shock, says the dispatch, was felt severe
| ly at Grass Valley. This town is distant
nearly two hundred miles from San Fran
cisco. One thing is strange in relation tc
these earthquakes, that they never reach be
low the crescent shaped peninsula on which
the city Of San Francisco is built. Then
origin seems located in the vicinity Of the
city. 1t is there the most intense shock il
felt and the commouou seems to roll bacl
in decreasing undulatious towards the nortl
and east. The counties south seem neye
to be disturbed This circumstance renders
the Golden City not very desirable place o
| residence

few exceptions, well enough. But the case
Of Mr. Hawley demands thoughtful cOnsid.
Grafton, have considered the matter, in
a.. rs bearings, aud would be very glad 10
avoid the necessity Of voting against him, or
warning my fellow citizens of this county
against him. But my honest conviction is,
after considering the matter WE'LL that our
local interests will not be safe ia his hands.
i is within my knowledge that, last winter,
Mr.. Hawley, at the solicitation Of Spencer,
Robinson d Co. wrote a letter to Gen. Hard.
ing our member Of congress, urging him to
oppose the free carriage bridge across the
Mississippi river, at this point, thus sacrtic'
hg the interests Of the entire people Of this
county and OF the people opposite us in Iowa,
IN order to perpetuate an 0diOus monopoly in
the hands OF Spencer, Robinson a Co. II is
true Spencer, Robinson & Co. and Mr.. law.
ley, and myself, are political friends-but Il
that any reason why Mr.. Hawley should sac.
rihce the interests Of the whole people Did
he write this letter because they are his politi.
cal friends Or did he write il for consid.
Grafton, in dollars and cents? IL must have
been one or the other. But no matter which
It may have been, it renders him Rn unsafe
representative Of our local interests, when
they come in conflict with monopoles con.
trolling money and political influence. As
much as | dislike to vote tor Gen. Singleton
yet must prefer him to a man who wrote
letter TO our member olcongress asking him
to defeat the free wagon bridge over the
Mississippi river in order to perpetuate an
odious monopoly in the hands Of parties who
have controlled our state senators and rep.
resontatiyes against the interests Of our PEG.
pie, aud our party too. With Mr.. Hawley
as the representative Of the ferry monopoly in
congress, we may bid farewell to any vigil.
ance or frmness to protect the masses, in
that or any other matter.

out pretending to deny that the results Of
the recent elections are injurious to the best
interests Of the country in the defeat of the
local tickets aud many patriotic democrats,
careful survey Of the field shows us that
there is nothing in these results to Justify de.
spoudency or excuse any relaxation of the
democracy in behalf Of the cause of Justice
and constitutional liberty, for which they 50
nobly struggled in Ohio.
Although beaten by small majority in q
poll Of over five hundred Thousand votes, the
result shows that the democracy has gained
between ten aud fifteen thousand votes on
the state ticket while the enemy have been
unable TO maintain their strength Of four
years ago, and have, in addition, lost no less
than four congressman and their successful
candidates have such meagre majorltjes as

their districts at the November election.
In the presidential year of lsGI, the de.
mocrscy pollcd 5000 more votes at the No.

mour and Blair--thOse last tribuucs Of the
people and freedom. The means aud euer-
Eies Of the enemy aud their facilities for the
preparation Of fraud, corruption, aud colo.
nization were exhausted in their desperate
efforts to carry the October election, and will
not confront US in November. These law.

states Of Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania
which cast more than 100000 votes, will
be redeemed, and the flag Of the American

the standard Of liberty, honesty, aud Justice

No cause is lost that involves such gigan-
tic interests, and is sustained by such a myr.
lad Of pure, patriotic and indOmitable men.

ant. History is full of examples showing

energetic struggle, made at a darker time
than the present is for our country. The
cause needs but the unwavering courage,the
indomitabe viii, the tireless energy, aud the
slceplcss yigiIance-su as the democracy
displayed in the recentand many previous
contest--to secure its final triumph.
These qualities you are now called on to
exert by every consideration of patriotism,
honor, Interest, and hope-the peace of our
country, and the liberty Of our prosperity.
We implorc the gallant workers and voters
Of the democratic party to keep right on with
