Why Rebel Congressman Supports
Greeley.

Congressman Golladay of Tennessee in a
recent speech tells his constituents why he
supports Mr.. Greeley for the Presidency. In
the course Of his speech he used the follow
ing expressions which are commended to
those who believe that Mr.. Greeley is now as
reliable Republican as President Grant
Mr.. Golladay told his hearers:
Greeley would do for the Democratic party
of the nation what Gratz Brown did in Mis-
souri,, Senter in Tennessee, and Walker in
Virginia. In accepting Greeley, the Democ-
racy had not abandoned their principles, and,
in adopting their platform, they had not ig
nored their record in the past. They recOg-
rizcd the thirteenth, fourteenth, and fifteenth
constitutional amendments as an eIisting fact
in the same sense as zoe recognize that Cain
killed Abel aud that Judas betrayed Christ.
The Democracy did not believe they were
just or constitutionally adopted. He said
Greeley. best suited the South of any man in
the nation. He had done more and was will
ing to do more for her than any other man
could. Greeley, at the outset of the war,
was for letting the "wayward sisters depart
in peace" and afterward went single-handed
and alone to meet our commissioners in Can
ada, to treat for peace. Not Democrat in
the North dare go with him, or manifested
any desire to go. He Dds then in favor of
paying the South for her slaues and believe
he is still. He went on JEFF. Davis bond,
while not Northern Democrat SO much as
lifted finger for his release. He Immediate
ly advocated universal amnesty, and opposed
the execution of any Southern man for trea-
son. He had denounced in bitterest terms the
carpet-baggers, and called them the plumber
ers Of the South. HE is ONE OF Us.

Tammany i'm North CaroIina,


The latest advices from North Carolina in
dictate that it is the purpose of the Democratic
managers to introduce the Tammany tactics
of challenging hundreds of Republicans, and
thus by delay and brow-beating prevent,
throughout the State, several thousands Of
votes from being polled. The Greeley COM
mittee of New York have sent the precious
jail birds of that city to manipulate the poll
lists and by the ott-practised frauds of the
New York city roughs secure Democratic
triumph in North Carolina.
In addition to this proposed outrage upon
the ballot box, there is evidence that a sys
tematic terrorism has been organized to keeI
the colored voters away from the polls OF
compel them to vote the Democratic ticket
Already two murders have been committed
by Ku Klux bands and no attempt made by
the local authorities to punish the perpetra
tors.
The agents of Ethan Allen took 500, 900 te
North Carolina to purchase negro votes, but
failing in that the money has been expended
in organizing terrorism in the rural districts
AT the last election, which occurred in 1870
the Democrats carried the State by 5000 ma
jority.l Last year Democratic constitutions
amendment, overthrowing the free schoo
system, was defeated, but the Democratic
journals claimed then that it was done by
Democratic votes.
Yet in spite of the desperation to which the
Greeley leaders are driven in conducting the
campaign in North Carolina, we still believe
that the Republicans will triumph by good
majority, but it will be triumph against the
most extensive and unscrupulous combina
tons of the most desperate political scoundreh
that ever existed. ft.-r-5

A Specimen "Liberal Republican"
EnNrrpIrnn I,,lx % 1910


Mr.. EDIToR:-I notice, in the argus of
yesterday, a communication from one Albert
Colby, who claims to have made the discovery,
that he is not only Greeley Republican, but
that there are hosts of the same kind in Ok
ford County, People who know Albert in
this part Of the County will not be surprised at
this. His experience in new hobbies has
been very large. Few have escaped his no
tice-there are few but what he has ridden,
But to mount this Greeley hobby, claiming
to be Republican, is the biggest joke Of the
campaign. In 1860, during the Presidential
campaign, this same honest Republican, Al
bert, wrote home to his father, giving the fol-
lowing advice: "You, father, had better
vote for Lincoln. II advise my brother to
vote for Douglas; while I shall feel it my
profound duty to vote for Bell and Ererett.
Whether he had some friend who was urged
to vote for Breckenridge, does not appear.
He did not, however, vote for Grant in '6S-
hence, those who know Albert are not sur
prised at his conversion to Greeley. Who
next? II,

The Fingers not Withdrawn.

An entertaining bit of correspondence is
reported from Waldo county. 1t seems that
Hon. c. P. Kimball, sympathizing profound
ly with Percie and the Boston Post an to the
proper course for the Fifth District to pursue
at this juncture, wrote to Hon. W. III. Nc
Lellan of Belfast, the foremost Democratic
candidate for the Congressional nomination,
urging him to withdraw and let Pike be NOM
mated as he would thus greatly strengthen
the State ticket. Mac, who is the prince
of good fellows seemed to think that Mr.
Kimball was speaking at least, two words for
himself to one for the Fifth District and re-
piled very briefly, somewhat as follows:
"Your favor Of inst. was duly received
and the subject matter has received profound
consideration. l have talked the matter ov-
er with several of our friends here and we
have come to the conclusion that if you would
WithdrsW and let - be nominated
in your place, we could carry the State"
Mr.. Kimball at once responded that on re-
Election he had concluded to withdraw his
fingers from the Fifth District"
Either he did not withdraw his fingers,
as per contract, or they had done enough et-
fective manipulating before that date, or Per-
Gle was omnipotent in the Fifth, or the Bos-
ton Post did it, or Pixies tactics were too
many for them, for when tho Convention

THE nomination of Mr.. Pike by the Glib
erap' Republican Convention of fifty volun-
tesrs at Belfast, and by the Democratic Con-
vention at the same time, leaves Waldo
county without candidate ON either side.
The claim of locality for that county was
equally ignored by all the Conventions, and
this point which had been urged against Mr..
Hale by some discontented gentlemen of
Waldo, will apply with equal force to his COM
petitor. So that the choice is simply be-
tween tho Republican and the Democratic
candidates and the locality" question is def
nitely ruled ont of the contest . .-.s,- I'd
