THE CAMPAIGN NEWS.
Greeley Against Grant-A Paper for
the People.

the feoplc.
The Presidential Campaign for 1872 has
opened. 1t will be the most exciting that
the country has ever known. The issues in
volved are extraordinary in character, and
come directly home to every citizen. The
overthrow OF Grant and the election OF
Greeley mean Honesty and Reform in the
National Administration, the triumph OF Law
and the restoration of Peace and Harmony
throughout our land, and a return to the
fundamental principles Of government which
prevailed in the better days of the Re-
public.
fhe most intense interest will naturally
be felt in the progress and result OF the
struggle, especially in the South, where the
material prosperity Of the people and their
relief from organized persecution and rob-
berry are involved. We mean that The

enterprising and outspoken chronicle OF the

OK Power In Chicago.


THE attempts to substitute oxen for
horses frequently result in ludicrous mis-
haps. The principal difficulty seems to
be, how to hitch up the critters. 1t
should be borne in mind that competent
oX-drivers are not to be picked up on
every stfeet.corner in Chicago, and there.
fore there is much uncertainty as to the
proper manner of addressing an OK in
order to effect his movements, as we'll as
with reference to the correct mode of
hooking him to the wagon. He ought to
pull in harness, Ikea horse, but he won't.
He insists upon huge hickory contriv.
ance known as a yoke, and desires to be
attached to the wagon in the simplest
manner consistent with the laws of pro-
gression. A party of clerks on Fifth ave-
nue. yesterday afternoon experienced con-
siderable difficulty In making the thing
work, They first attached. tug.ropes
from the yoke to the whippletrees, only
to encounter the most Incorporating
objections from the oxen, whose feelings
found vent In kicks slow hut disagreea-
bic. In the midst of their quandary came
timely suggestion from looker.on who
was evidently well up In ox.gear, From
him they learned that nothing but chain
of suitablelength was necessary, and when
their way rejoicing, at the rate Of two
miles per hour.
The streets were saved from utter de-
sertion yesterday by few vehicles drawn
by hardy men, some by apparently well.
dressed personsi who displayed on their
backs and behind them the advertisement
of some welfknown~ clothing establish
ment. But there were more oxen on the
streets yesterday than human beasts of
burden or horses. A large number of OK
teams could be seen in different parts of
the city. Every large business house in
Chicago has four or five yoke of oxen at
work now, doing the heavy teaming. One
firm had several yoke of these useful and
powerful beasts in their employ before
the disease showed itself in the city, and
have now several at work. On Monday,
when they were first impressed into active
service, they were overloaded by the
boys, who seemed to think the OK some
near relative of the elephant. Even this
load the patient brutes drew successfully,
but they wilted little, and their capacity
was recognized afterward as being not
altogether unlimited.
Oxen are now being imported at rapid
rate. The demand is not yet supplied,
and good animals meet with ready sale.
A countryman stood five yoke by the
Chamber of Commerce, Yesterday morn
ing, and in one hour walked away with
81 $50 in his pocket, leaving the oxen to
the mercies and abuses of their new own
ers. There were OK markets all through
the business portion of the city, andabout
them gathered merchants, ox-drivers, and
curiosity seekers. The average prices
were from $3.50 to $3.50. Merchants are
generally buying their oxen but some
are hiring at $40 day, with driver
