DEMOCRATIC CAUcUsEs To-NIGHT.-The

several wards this evening for friendly con-

democrats of the county, the state and the
nation shall be encouraged by an increased
majority here, or whether the radicals shall
he able to claim victory for their outrage
GUS bondholding and high taxation policy,
and their infamous reconstruction, negro su-
premacy schemes. Democrats of Rock Is
land should remember that their breth-
rem throughout the country will be cheered
or disheartened by the result, and they
should, therefore, urge their personal prefer
ences with moderation, and cheerfully acqui.
ssce in the majority of opinions. Union, har
