advantages won, which would have
been a full triumph if the Radicals had

These frauds cannot be repeated 10 the

declares that the Democrats Of OHIO
have contended against the heavy n2-
~jorities Of fsnatieism and Eatltsiism.
They have fought an honest fight against
carpst-eaggers and eolOHizsrs from ad-
joining States, and against thousands Of
negro veters; aud that tie enemy hiss

olares the uBsAaken faith o.! the Deni5c-

The labor the Democrats Of Tennessee
