The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1872-10-08
WHICH !?

The voters of the United States win soon be
called upon to choose at the ballot box a Pre-
sident of the United States. Which shall it
be-Grant or Greeley?
In General Grant we have one who has been
tried and found true and faithful to his coun-
try. When all others were found incompetent
as generals-in-chief to lead our armies to vic
tory, Grant modestly and silently took the
place that had been so ingloriously vacated by
others and led our armies to victory! He
showed a skill in planning his campaigns a
facility of modifying plans on the field as cir
cumstances required and tenacity of pur-
pose, not only unexcelled but unequalled by
wonderful campaign, the greatest general of
the war;, according to the rebel and many
Democratic papers, succumbed to his prowess,
and instead of a grand pageant of rebels
chained to his chariot wheels, to huiniliate
the conquered, he kindly, forbearingly, pa
rolled them and sent them to their homes, thus
showing magnanimity which bespoke his
nobeness. At the close Of four years of tri-
fling and treachery by Andrew Johnson, the
Republican party chose him as its standard
bearer. 1t had felt that he alone of all it's
prominent men could lead it to assured victory
