i. few words to the electors-particularly
'9,e Republican elcctors-of Kcnosha
County, at the present time. Next Tues
day is the day for the frecmen ofthis state
.ho are electors TO exercise their political
s,over-their power of government, by
the exercise of the right of suffrage. 1t is
. right and duty Of the elector to vote
4e who does not vote does not do his part
in the government Of his country. He
y no neglects to vote neglects one of his
eMost important duties. And as it is the
duty Of every elector to vote, 1t is also his
duty to vote right. Republicans need no
.ggumsnts to convince them that the prin.
clplea Of the Republican party arc right
The Democrats even know this so we'll
that they scarcely attempt discussion of
he distinctive principles of the twopolit
zeal parties. In the platform of the Dem

The same course has been pursued in

Republican candidates and party and chat
it is best to elect Democrats, not only to
state Offices but to county offices also.
The Ui9on is quick TO smell corruption
