very rarely characterize children, Her
death was peaceful as her life had been

GRAND MEADOW, Sept. Il, "a
Republicans and Republican Grange
ers Of Mower county: Z.
As a Granger and as . Republican,
I wish to call your attention to the
coming November election. The op.
position are mastering their forces for
the contest under different names
Some quarters where the Democratic
element is strong, they boldly come
out as Democrats; mother places, they
take the name Of Peoples Party; and
in this State they take the name OF
Anti-Monopoly, under tho lead. Of such
men as Capt. Nc Kenny, St. Julian
Cox and Judge Waite. Auti- Aonop-
oily is their whole stock in trade. Now
1 am sure speak within the bounds
of truth when I say that there is not
single Republican in the whole coun-
ty who is Mouopolist, or in any par
ticular, in favor of monopoly. The
party in its platform is committed in
faqor Of cheap transportation; and in
the anti-monopoly platform there is
nothing said on the subject. And
what do you expect to!gain if you leave
the Republicans and join the so-called
Anti Monopolist party. Undor such
leaders you will be politely asked to
take a back seat. You must be aware
that three-fourths of the grangers in the
county are Republicans and it is for
you to say who you will have to fill
the Offices Of your county; therefore it
is not only your right but it is your
duty to attend the town caucuses, to
see that the right kind of men are Sc
lected as delegates. It will not do to
wait until the time of election arrives.
If you wish to have choice you have
choice as to whom shall be your off,
GERS. Then let me repeat, call your
caucus early, give good and extensiv e
notice aud be there yourself: Select
good men as delegates and instruct
them if YOU think necessary, then all
will be we'll.
To day We h ear muttcrings Of anoth'
CT rebellion. The Southern wing Of
the Democratic party is in open revolt.
In Louisiana ten thousand are under
arms usurping the constituted authori-
thoritics of the State. The Democrats
all over the Northwest are in sympa'
thy, if not in league with their breth'
Of New Orleans. Will you join with
them? think that in your hearts and
by your acts, your ansyer yill..6e "No.'
The Republican party that brought Us
triumphan,ly through the great rebel
lion is as true to you aud to principle
today as it vas during the war. II
!, any one in the party proves recrean
J to'the trust, put..him out. The pres
euce Of black sheep in the fold, occa
} sionally, is no evidence that the whole
> flock is contaminated.
