The state Election.

of more than ordinary moment, not ohly
to Vermont but to the country at iafSe'
We are not to have an election again 1or
tvo years Other States have been accus-
toned on the first Tuesday in September
TO look to Vermont for the first gun OF the
fall campaign therefore, there Is great
importance attached to the present cleo
tion for its influence is to extend beyond
our own borders, as a word of encourage
ment and hope to those who are fercely
struggling with the democracy in other
sections. Let every vote be polled, roll
ing up at least 10000 majority for the Re-
publican State ticket, so that its moral
influence may be felt throughout the
country, and its echoes shall not have
ceased when the canvass for new Presi-

of Republican candidate to the Presi-
dency in 1872.

responsibility resting upon the Republican
of our commonwealth at this time All

press of its great principles upon the era
which witnessed its birth and victories, it
must rally in all its strength around the
man, who in storm and calm has been its
leader and expounder. General Grant

vindicated the persistenoy with which he
has cluug to the line of policy marked out
when he assumed the duties Of his exalted
Office The elections this fall are not only
important as a means ofinfusing a united
aud homogeneous spirit which shall be felt
in national legislation but establish and
strengthen the hands of the President by
showing that he has party as a unit
with him, that we have not a President
without a party or a party without al
President.
