We believe that Governor Johnson would give
strength 70 the ticket In the West where lie Is most
lavorably known rs warm friend and admrcr Of
Mr.. Douglas. The friends OF the latter who were
drawn into the republican party by the force Of the
war current which swept over the West In 1S61-62
would be glad TO have bridge over which they
could quietly and hon0raby return to the old fold.
The name or Governor Johnson on the democratic
ticket for Vice President would enable thousands
or the Douglas war democrats to renew their
allegiance to their Old party without a sacri-
fee OF feeling. They know that Governor
johnson opposed, with the whole weight Of his
powerful intellect and personal influence the unfor
tunate split at Charleston, and that he sacrificed
himself In accepting the second place on the Doug.
