The Cairo bulletin. [volume] (Cairo, Ill.) 1872-1878, 1874-04-10


On tho ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS side great con-
fusion prevails, and thcre is to al appear
Gnces no person WAC has the ability TO con-
solidate the party and lead it TO victory.
The farmers movement, which is'gaiu-
ing considerable strength in many. of the
counties Of the district, is adding confu.
sion instead of strength to the democratic
liberal combination. Tho gentlemen who
are prominent in The movement wish to
use it rs their stepping-stonc to places Of
honor and profit, aud will not probably
Listen to appropriations for a coalition. If
they do not, and drag the farmers after
them, there will 10 three candidates for
congross--the candidate Of the republicans,
tho candidate of tho dcmocratic.liheral
party aud the candidate Of the farmers
organization. THIS would confound con.
fusion and give an easy victory into tho
hands OF the radicals
We hope some plan may be devised by
which the opposition can be consolidated;
and as VIC understand the matter, tho only
obstacle standing in the way Of this con-
summation is the desire OF individuals TO
occupy Dir. Clements place in congress.
| These candidates are cultivating each his
faction, and urging it 10 stand by its
cO,oIs.
The rock-rDbcd democrat who desires
tho candidacy of the opposition, is urging
tho rock-rbbad to be firm and wavor no.
an instant lie is taking his rock-ribbcd
friend by tho lapel OF the coat and is
mysteriously whispering in his car.-is
telling him that Jefferson livel, that
jackson fought the battle Of New Or
leans and crushed the United StatedIank.
that the old guard never surrenders, that
New Hampshire, Connecticut, Cinein-
natl, Cleveland Chicago prove that there
is much life in the grand old democratic
party. "Its, cir, vigor and life SIR; and
