THE WRoNG CUSTOMER walked UP
At Democratic meeting out West
young Irish politician was urged to
make a speech in favor of Greeley, on the
ground that straight out nomination
could have no hope of success. But Pat
couldn't see wherein Greeley promised
any better, mas much as the Republi-
cans of the town were unit for Grant.
but at the East, Pat, the Republicans
are unitin on CRAZY" urged one of his
neighbors. "Begora," retorted Pat, as
he mounted the stand, "it's always a
good way off ye have to go to foind the
Republicans who won't vote for Gineral
Grant. I'm thinking they're SO divilish
far off that they'll niver git to the click
shun. Ye talk about CRAZY splittin the
Republican partly, but he has hardly
knocked good sized chip off it, an if
its cooperation We want yell find two
Dimocrats will cooperate to elect Grant
where one Republican tries to beat him. -
Pat was not asked to speak for Greeley
again. Indeed, the meeting broke up
in true Denny brook style.

make us stagger. We may stand defeat
but it will cost us months of labor and
toll to recover, and it will then afford
substantial evidence that there is dis
satisfaction with the administration.
In conclusion l will state one fact !:
They say we have stolen, but there has
been less percentage stolen under Grants
administration than any other within
quarter of a century-by actual fig
ures less than one-ffteen5h of one per-
cent. Senator Wilson then closed with
eulogizing Grants administration

A rousing Greeley and Brown ratifca.
ton meeting was held at Augusta, Maine.
last Tuesday evening at which Theodore
Tilton, General Fitzpatrick, and other
smaller lights argued the points in fa-
vor of Greeley. Delegations were pres
ent from all the surrounding towns, and
We expect they had glorious time.
Greeley meetings have also been held in
many other places the past week. Flags
have been hoisted with three cheers and
a tiger. Grant meetings and fag-rais-
ings have also been too numerous to men,
tion.
