ARADICAL CIRCULAR.


There are few unsPectIng individuals that
act with the Democracy, who are anxiou Us
to obliterate all party lines aud, TO use
favorite phrase, "go for the best man." un-
der the mistaken impression that the Grant
men who use the same language are equally
in earnest with themselves. The following
circular which has been secretly circulated
for the purpose Of making capital for Grant
in the Presidential canvass, shows that
In every movement the Grant party have
made in the county elections, they have
had an eye exclusively to business of the
most emphatically partisan character. Let
those who favor the election of Greeley
read this circular and then vote for the
best man to beat the candidate '.trOm
sohon the friends Of General Grant and the
Republican party may erpectthe most here
GtTer7'
Read the private circular:
STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL.
HEADQUARTERS REPUBLICAN EXECU-
TIVE COMMITTEE, Nashville, July, 1872.
Hon. Dear Sir: After consulta-
ton with, and at the suggestion of many
leading Republicans in different parts of
the State, take the liberty of calling your
attention TO what is deemed the most adya
tageous policy to be pursued In the election
for county officers in the various counties
in the State in August next. Our OBJ
jective point, as Republicans, is the re-elec-
ton Of President Grant; and in order
TO secure practicable support from the op-
position whenever possible, and passive
support in other instances, 1t is thought
best for the Republicans in the different
counties TO be governed by circumstances,
and to vote for, and make strict party issue,
and run strictly party candidates only In
such counties and cases, as may present
reasonable assurance of success. 1t all other
cases, the Republican vote should be con-
centrated on those candidates Of the oppo-
sition party most liberal toward us now,
and from whom the friends of Gen. Grant
axd the Republican party may expect the
most hereafter. These suggestions, strictly
carried into practice, it is believed, viii do
much TO concIiate and hberalize very
large element throughout the State, upon
whom, it is hoped, we might possibly rely
for cooperation in the futuEs, and on whose
aid we might rely in the election Of Gen.
Grant, as against Greeley.
Many Democrats are greatly dissatisfied
With the action of their party in repudiating
its psst record, and especially In nominating
Greeley. We can well afford to act hberally
tow ard such, when candidates, as an In
ducement for them to do likewise toward
us in the Presidential election. Yours re-
spectfuly, THOMAS A. KERCHEYAL,
Chairman State Executive Committee.
