The Republican campaign has opened
in earnest, especially III Ohio. Gen.
Butler inaugurated the fight in Massa-
chusctts on Thursday, and the Republi-
earn leaders of Pennsylvania will open
sheir batteries next week We were in
hopes that the camp palgn in this State
would open before many days rolled
around, but in this we have been disap
pointed, and must make up for the de-
lay by extra eXertIons when it really
dues open.
The Republicans have no reason to be
discouraged; /; In fact, they should be ex-
actly the opposite, for they have, to use
Il common expression, the Democratic
party in the corner, and they need, as
Mr.. Lincoln once said, bot to keep peg
ging away to administer a defeat which
will dishearten it for years to come.
We must make an aggressive fight.
The Republican party has no excuse to
make, nor explanation to give. Its pol
Icy for the past ten years is its best vim
dication. 1t saved the country; made
every man free and equal, and gave US
peace at home and abroad. The splen-
dor Of Lincoln's administration has been
only olqualed by that of Grants. Repub-
.icans can point to them with pride =
Where there has Eeen one blunder there
have been hundred glorious deeds.
The Democrats can show no such
record. 1t was the party that precipita
ted the war. helped to prolong it by
throwing obstacles in the way of the
Government, and defended and support
ed the Ku klux in its efforts to murder
and exterminate those who had been
loyal to their country in the Southern
States. The same leaders it had in 1861
control it now Half of them are honest
enough to stick to their p' inciples, whilst
the other half try to win by trickery and
false pretence.
Corrupt Tammany Hall furnishes the
main sinews of war, and every dollar
given has been stolen from the people oi
New York. This corrupt ring controlled
its last convention, and will control Its
next, unless the honest men of the party
will throw i. overheard. We want nc
better campaign document than the
record published in our columns of the
money stolen from the city treasury O
New York. What this infamous ring
have done at New York, they would dc
at Washington. They must be kept ou
of that place, and if we give them a strons
steady blow this fall, We will make til,
way easier for grand Republican tri
umph in lS72.-N T. Standard.

The New York Tribune speaking

The New York Tribune speaking of
the next election, has the following:
1.-The State of New York is to be re-
covered from the clutches of her Demo-
cratic misruiers this Fall. Fraud, noun
famous and deliberate, gave her Electo
raj votes to Seymour and Blair in 1868 !;
Fraud, reiterated and extended, has since
kept her under the sway of Hoffman and
Tweed. Moneys stolen by millions from
the taxes or added to the debt of her
great City, has been used with effect to
forge and distribute certificates of Natu-
ralization by the ream to grind out voters
who had not been two years in this coun-
try, to suborn twelve-barrel repeater"
and bribe canvasSerS to make false re-
turns. The net result is the autocracy Of
Tweed, Connolly and Hall, the purchase
Of Winans and other betrayers of their
trust, and the saddling of the metropolis
represents nothing but fraud, forgery and
theft. Such is the rough outline of a
long career of audacious, successful crime
which has eliminated in burden of tax
alton and a mountain of debt at which
property holders may we'll stand aghast,
wondering what remains un-revealed.
This will give an idea of what we might
expect in Wisconsin. ifit ever should fall
again into Democratic clutches, for wher
ever we nay look, be it State, County or
City, administration if Democratic, it is
certain to be fraudulent and exorbitant.
Take any Democratic State and compare
it with Wisconsin, or take any county
or city in our own State and compare it
with Republican one similar in popula-
lation and wealth, it will show the same
result, theft and forgery aud fraud on
the Democratic side, while honesty, fru-
gality and order will be found with the
Republicans.
If such considerations do not secure a
Republican victory, there will be the
strongest evidence, that fraud and cor
ruption can sway any administration
from that of the smallest town to that of
the largest State in the Union.

The Democrats have been opposing
Republican principles these twenty years,
but the Republicans have beaten them
in war and peace. Being thoroughly
whipped, they now say the Republicans
are right and they were wrong, but be-

Republican party and administer the

A letter was received at the Treasury
Department, from General Spinner, in
which he states that American credit in
Europe stands very high. Referring to
the case with which the French loan was
disposed of, and the difficulty our gov
ernment had in selling five per cents, he
says the former realized but seventy six
cents on the dollar, while our bonds were
negotiated dollar for dollar.
Tammany has really given the death
blow to modern Democracy and the frag
ments are fighting each other like a sew
cred hydra. For this we are somea hat

In this case the opposition was SO much
more corrupt than was possible to the
dominant party that it has naturally fall
en- in pieces. 1t is to be hoped that re.
spectacle opposition may take its place.
The Democratic party of this State is
laboring under disadvantages. When its
advocates attempt to justify Doolittle's
departures they inevitably condemn their
own party. And when they try to show
up the consistency of Democracy they
just as inevitably pronounce maledictions
upon Doolittle. In other words when
Doolittle is up the Democratic party is
down; and when the Democratic is up
Doolittle is down. However, the coming
election will restore the equilibrium it
will reduce both the party and its candi-
Cate to the dead level of obscurity -Ap-

Palmer, of Milwaukee, has practically
been the drudge horse of Democracy
doing nearly all the hard work, and get
ting but very little in return, save growls
from sore heads in his own party. In
fact. we do not believe there would have
been much left of the Democratic organ
ization in this State, had It not been for
him.
And what has been his reward I? Only
to see personal enemies elevated to posi-
tions Of prominence. There's General
Bragg, who bolted Palmer's nomination
for Governor in 1868; he is now the
candidate for Attorney General. There
is the last State Convention over Wnich
he presided, taking the power OF appoint
