"cALL YOU THOSE OUR FRIENpsY DO YOU
SEE 1T :"
The Lacrosse Democrat, in the course OF
one brief article, calls the New York
World "a nongrel concern, and declares
that the election of such men as Messrs,
Belmont, Seymour and Tilden to Demo
cratic Convention, ais an insult to the
whole country" Call you this backing
your friends 9-Neto York Sun.
Call you those our friends2 We don't
believe they are. Our friends are the
friends of the poor men; those who would
aid to lift the great burden of debt and
| taxation from the shoulders of the poor
| Ilaboring men of the country, where such
men as Belmont have put 1T, and where
such men as Seymour, Tilden and com
pany seek to keep 1t.
We back our friends, and that is why we
back the workingmen of the country
| against the encroachments Of the ma
| hogany-legs and bondholders.

IN ACCORD.
1 We have been particularly impressed,
since reading the Jacobin platform adopted
at Chicago, with its almost exact accord,
ance, touching the finances, the national
credit and taxation, with Governor Sey-
mour's views, as expressed in his cele-
brated speech at the New York Bond.
| holders Convention last winter. Scan
the two, and compare them carefully, and
you will find scarcely a shade OF dlller
ence. How true it is that the friends OF
the bondholders, in either party, think
alike, feel alike and act alike. With then
the interests of their masters, the bond
lords, are paramount to all others.
What beautiful fix we should be in
were we to adopt Governor Seymour
views, reaflirming, in substance, the Jaco
bin platform upon the financial question
How grandly we could rally the masses
What ringing appeals we could make Il
the plowholdersl What splendid cam
paign it would be, with no issue tina
would touch the real interests of the peo
pie, arouse enthusiasm, fire the popula
heart, and consolidate, strengthen, lnsplr
