WHEN HAwley was at Judge Grants
party he boosted that he didn't want to be
Congressman again unless he could be
returned by a larger majority than
ever. He WAS going to wipe
out the Democrats till there
wasn't a spot left. Wind the figure up Jerry
and show his paces.-Darenport Democrat
Two years ago he had 1872 majority
without the Negro vote, which amounts to
over 600 in the district but instead OF
even his old majority he receives scarcely
100. This difference cannot be attributed
to General Apathy, but to General
Dissatisfaction and General Condemnation
A tax burdened people dissatisfied with a
radical congress for shifting the taxes from
the rich to the laboring and producing
clssses,-a people seeing the reckless and
%ruinous class legislation for the benefit of
party favorites condemming the action Of
their chosen representatives, is the true
cause Of Hawley's Insignificant majority.
This and this only almost resulted in his
defeat. Without the Negro vote his defeat
would have been certain and shows that the
the majority of the people do condemn his
course in congress.
Although Mr.. Cable does not 60 to con
gress, the principles upon which we made
the fight for him will, in a measure, 20 in
the person of Hawley. As he squeezes into
his seat in congress he will remember the
s~alutary lesson We have taught him, and will
be extremely cautious how he votes against
the interests Of his constituents. We have
given him and his radical supporters . good
square fight, and if outnumbered We are BY
no means whipped. but with the advantage
gained shall continue to advocate the same
principles Of reform and economy, the same
opposition to tariff robberies, land stealing,
And class legislation for party favorites.
