A COMPLETE CANVASS IN PROGRESS
These arc names selected almost at random from the
representative Liberals Of all parts of the State. II
would require almost complete canvass OF the State TO
do full Justice to them but any who knows Illinois
and her people will recognize that these represent the
Intelligence the wealth. and the good faith, so 10 speak
OF the state. The Executive Committee have put in
operation the machinery for asceraining exactly the
promotions Of Liberal strength throughout the state
and have 40 far obtained returns which only be
peted in time but which 10 the present indicate an
actual change from vote OF 1863 which must beyond
all question throw the State into the hands OF the Lib
erals The correspondence takes in every school district
hut the replies so far do not cover all the counties.
