Address Of the Democratic County
Committee OF MonongaitaC County
Fellow Democrats and Liberal Re.
puhlicans of Monongsiia, to the rescue
Now, as ever, is the truth of the
maxim upon US that "eternal vigilance
is the price of liberty" The enemy
have now organized in their midnight
conchves to make war upon US and
our children, and By false representa-.
tions and fraud 90 common to tina,
party (now severed from it's noblel
spirits), to rob us and our children Of
what vestige of the rights of freemeu
We have lett. Shall they do it? The
voice of God, liberty and justice cries
no. our own manhood cries no, and
fellow Democrats, the spirit OF Jack.
son, yet LAUNDERING in our bosoms, as
it were, that, by the eternal, il shall
not be-" while grass grows and water
runs, if we can prevent it. Fellow
Democrats, be not deceived by the
willy falsehoods OF that bloated and
blatant party, who now assume the
effrontery to tell us the contest is
over that October elections in Penn,
sylvania, Ohio and Indiana settled il
for Grant and Grantism. 1t is false
They do not believe it in their hearts,
nor in their threats; else why this
now hasty midnight organization ?
If they do believe all this, why the
necessity.
No, Democrats, if these elections have
settled anything it is that the Democ-
racy can and will triumph in November
If they will only work; only be vigilant,
as .freemen ought to be, as right and
duty demand. Pennsylvania, which
gave Grant in 1868 over $4,000 major
ity, now, with forty or fifty thousand
negro votes added, with the Thousands
of imported and fraudulent votes cast
TOR the Republicans and by the aid of a
million of money corruptly used, gives
Hartrantt a less majority than Grant
got, and every honest mans heart tells
him that hal none but honest votes
been counted the State would have gone
land did COY Democratic in October.
So in Ohio, in 1868, Grant carried it
by over $4,000 majority, now that es
MANY thousand negro votes have been
added, voting almost solid for the Rad
icals, they have only carried her by a
few thousand at most. While Indiana
was carried by Grant in 1868 by 10000,
she now, with perhaps three times as
many negro votes, all told, goes Demo-
cratic, aud elects that stern and true
Democrat, Thomas A. Hendricks. And
Georgia God bless her) goes Demo-
cratic, with the aid of the Liberals, by
about $4,000, which is at least twice
the Radical majorities in Pennsylvania
and Ohio together. Is it not then APP
parent that q gain in the three States
of Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana OF
one-fourth as much at the Novem.
Der elections as we have gained
therein since the last elections,
will give us all three of these
States? Give up Pennsylvania and less
than one-tenth OF such gains in Ohio
and Indiana will give us both OF them.
Can this be done, and how? We an
swer it can, and we are assured 1t will
be done. Fraud and corruption will
not have it in their power to accomplish
AZ much in November, when all the
States vote on the same day, as in Octo-
Der when only two or three voted.
Again, there was and is large class OF
Republican candidates for the State
offices, az against Democrats, but who
ALWAYS have and always will follow
Greeley and Brown, and the host OF
other worthy patriots driven from the
Republican ranks by its nepot'sm and
corruption. We have the best assur-
auces that in Cincinnati and county
alone, the increase will in November
more than overcome the whole
m ,jority OF the State at the Octo-
her electors. How then stands the
chances for the November elections
With the South a unit for Greeley and
Brown. with. perhaps, the exceptions Of
Soutb Carolina and NAV be Mississippi

ern States alone are admitted Tor Gree
lev and Brown, to which we claim as
morally certain California and Texas

her % votes, Indiana with her ID votes

ouired number QS4) to elect our can

PENNSYLVANIA and still have to spare, &c

donbtful. in which our chance seems at
