BE United.

There never was a time in the his
tory Of the Republican party when
there was greater necessity of united
action, and united effort, than the pres.
ent. And this lesson comes to US iu
Pierce county, and in the St. Croix
Valley. with double force.
After determined effort, which at
one time seriously threatened the dis.
ruption of the party, we succeeded in
establishing what nearly all concede to
be a just basis of representation in party
conventions. And now it is that it be-
hooves us to hold the ground we have
gained, which, by the way, is the just
step toward securing the next candi.
date for Congress from one of these two
counties, desideratum, indeed, and
one to which we have heretofore attach
ed quite too little Importance.
Now let us in Pierce county, make
long pull, strong pull, aud, for once,
all pull together, and we shall be the
banner Republican county in this Con-
gressional district. Vernon and Eau
Claire now lead US. but it remains only
for US to be united, to make determ-
ined effort to get out the voters, and to
divide upon no local issue whatever,
and we stand an even chance, at least,
to lead the van. We have already
gained point in this direction, as the
Republican strength is already transfer
red to this portion of the district. Re-
member, friends, that fraction of one
hundred will give us an additional del
egate, and we certainly ought to be
good for FIVE, if not six delegates, in the
next Congressional Convention.
The moral effect of being united on
our local ticket is also valuable to us.
1t not only enhances. or rather incr cas-
es our vote on the Presidential ticket,
but it gives positive character to the
party in every locality. If town
bolts on some one man, it may not en-
danger his chances of election-it may
in no way injure the individual. but it
necessarily creates distrust in the faith
contracted in the party in that locality.
Its effect is in every way damaging.
We urge no one to vote for man
who may be positively obnoxious to the
voter, but we deplore the idea of per-
scouting a man on account of mere pre-
JUDGE, or on account of locality. If
the candidate is competent to perform
the duties Of the Office, and has a fair
reputation, why vote against him? No
man can give satisfactory answer to
this question. Human nature is the
same everywhere, and there is no man
no, not one--without his peculiari-
ties, or without his faiings.
And now is the all important oppor.
tunity presented of redeeming conf
dence cverywhere-of showing such un-
ion as has not heretofore been shown in
our county, or in the St. Croix Valley
We will Motive need not point to the
facts, lest we appear to make invidious
distinctions. We propose to drop the
past, and make the future bright with
hopes, and bright with realities. There
is no bloody chasm over which to shake
hands, and no serious difficulty in the
way Of perfect union, that we are able
to discover. If there is will the way
will be provided, and the opportunity is
an excellent one for all to show that
they duly appreciate the great impor.
lance of being well united.

EVIL Com municatiOns Cor
rupt Good Manners.

The opposition press have a good
deal to say about the low associations Of
President Grant. He keeps company.
they say, with Tom Murphy in New
York. With Mr.. Stewart, the dry.
goods millionaire, he e,ts fac dinners
and drinks good wines. He talks about
fast horses with sporting gentlemen at
Long Branch. At Washington, ne as
sociates with young army officers, and
with such political characters as Coli ak,
Concklin, Wilson, Morton and Carpen-
ter. He likes good cigars and admires
fine dogs. Such tastes and such COM
partnership, it is argued. must result in
the ruin OF the country, if Grant should
be reelected.
Greeley, ON the other hand. is very
fastidioqs in.his tastes and exclusive in
his associations. He never smokes nor
chews. He breaches neat little sermons,
damning in this ld-he does not be-
lieve in future punishuent-all who
use tobacco. To be sure. he engages
with Hon. VIM. NJ. Tweed in the bust
ness of manufacturing tobacco, but he
is wise enough to know that "offenses
must needs come" and he, as we'll as
another, may reap the profit thereof
He is known to be friend Of Hon.
John Morrissey, who has peculiar wa Us
Of making money. but is, not the phi
losopher of Chappaqua too much of a
gentleman to inquire into the private
business of his associates? Aud did not

and other "bloods" of Athens? Gree.
ley is intimate with A. Oakley Hall.
who has the reputation of being the
most accomplished thief in New York
but did not a greater than man once
make publicans and sinners his COM
panions? The later Franklin is an as
sociate of Tweed and his partner in
business, but what is he in comparison
with such common fellows as Tom MUIR
ply? Did not Tweed steal as many
millions as Murphy did thousands? Is
there not an aristocracy of plund erers?
and does not Greeley choose the biggest
aud best? Above all, the honest sage
is the bosom friend, the political alter
ego of Senator Fenton, whose very su-
bordinates and lackeys, like Winans,
can beat Grants Custom House ring
all to pieces in slippery shameless cor.
ruption. Why, Fepton's minions can
take as much at one grab for a single
vote in the New York Legislature as
Leet could make in year. Talk about
Morton, and Carpenter, and Concklin
as Grants friends! Can they be com.
pared to Greeley's friend Fenton?
Seriously, is it not about time the
hypocritical Opposition journals ceased

C0mical Incident.

Rev. f. @. Morris relates the following /:
A parrot, belonging to so me friends of
mine, was generally taken out of the room
when the family assembled for prayers, for
fear he might take it in his head to join ir-
revereptly in the responses. One evening,
however, his presence seemed to be un.
noticed, and he was entirely forgotten
For some he maintained decorous silence,
but at length, instead of "Amen," out he
came with "Cheer, boys, cheer" On this,
the butler was directed to remove him, and
had got as far the door with him, when the
bird, perhaps thinking he had committed
himself, and had better apologize, called
out, "Sorrv / spoke" The overpowering
effect on the company may be more easily
imagined than described.
