The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1868-10-07

Hon. d. T. LAWSON, our candidate for
Congress followed General Ewing in fine
speech appealing to the workingman to con-
slider his own interest and vote with the
party and for the men who will relieve him
from the burdens of crushing taxation upon
everything he buys, to eat or to wear.
When Mr.. Lawson concluded the time
was approaching o'clock, and the various
professions moved up town in good order,
frequent cheers for Seymour and Blair rend-
ing the air, and with their respective bands
of music took their departure homeward, all
feeling good at the grand success of our
glorious meeting.

Friday last was proud day for the De
mocracy of Stark county. At an early
hour struggling conveyances began pouring
into town containing people TO attend the
meeting, and so continued for hours.
About o'clock monster flag was sus-
pended from Sch@fer's Opera House to the
st. Cloud, which was much admired, and
banner with the names Of Seymour and
Blair, was stretched from Geiger's block to
Biechele's ON East Tuscarawas street. Flags
were also displayed in different parts of the
city.
Our Alliance friends came by the cars,
arriving at 9 a. ~, and numbered several
hundred. They were marshaled by DR.. ].
B. Wilson and S. G. Mckee, and of course
accompanied by the Alliance Silver Cornet
Band, one of the very best in the State.
Chief Marshal Herbst received them with a
procession led by the Canton Democratic
Band and Canton First Voters Club, each
with red, white and blue sashes. Our
young men made fine appearance and at
trscted general attention. The united pro-
cession then marched up town to choice
music. We need not state that the crowds
of spectators on the street enjoyed this
opening scene.

Seymour's majority, 500, 900

Seymour'smajority, 500, 1000
Here is democratic majority
of over half million of votes
among that white population which
has elected every President of the
United States, and hitherto govern
ed its policy. Will not General
Grant take notice of this fact p
Will he not respect the voice of
half a million majority of his
fellow-citizens )? He has said, on
memorable occasion to President
johnson, that the chief executive
ought always to give way to the
majority of the people, if be had
any policy in conflict with theirs.
He will soon be in a position to
act upon the motto which he then
enunciated. All that is required
of him is to carry out the we'll un.
derstood views of a majority of
the people.
Fayetteville observer. [volume] (Fayetteville, Tenn.) 1850-1966, 1868-11-26


s@- The proposition to increase
the salary of the President from
$3.50 to 100000 year, is be.
ing canvassed by the press, and
warmly advocated. The office
beggars, at present, every man who
accepts it, unless he is rich man
in advance. The President is com.
PEELED to keep open house, ip a GER
tain sense, and cannot closely con.
troll the expenditures of his estab.
lishment without disgracing the
nation. The nation should not
permit him to ruin himself for its
sake. He ought to be enabled to
live in style becoming his station,
without making inroads upon his
private income.

The Popular Vote Of the
Country Democratic.


From a table carefully compiled
BY the Cincinnati Enquirer, it APP
pears that although Gen. Grant
will obtain the presidential Office,
nothing is more certain than that
there was an immense majority OF
the white people Of the country
against him and in favor Of the
election of his competitor: He
is the choice of the electors but
not of the people. The following
table will approximate to the real
maiorities in the several States
In the southern and border States,
where the elections have been
conducted under the power of the
bayonet, and where hundreds OF
thousands of negroes have been
brought to the polls by northern
carpet-baggers and military ty-
rants, in order to override the
voice of the people, we are obliged
to estimate the result. Our esti-
mates, in all cases, however, are
low, rather than above the mark.
The white population of the
south is almost unanimous against
the Radical rule and the Radical
candidates. Here is our table:
