-Four years ago we called on the Re-
publicans of this County, to give Gen.
Grant a majority of GOO. They responded
with majority of 594 Two weeks ago
we called upon them again, and repeated
the call last week in the HERALD to give
President Grant 600 majority in this Coun-
ty. They responded with 500, and four
Grant tickets were thrown out on account
of being stuck together, and one for being
marked making five tickets lost. These
would have given Grant COL majority in
this county. This was truly noble re-
sponse, and We can assure our Republican
friends that we feel proud of the vote given
by them on Tuesday. The Republicans
of this county are always to be relied upon.
