Mr.. A. G. Cook, the Democratic

-Mr. A. u. Cook, the Democratic
candidate for congress in this district,
if called rightly should be dubbed "Mr.
Facing-both.ways. He is straining
every nerve to secure the railroad vote
on a claim he makes for services rend-
cred in the past At the same time he
is perambulating the district and "play-
ing sweet to the grangers, bidding for
their votes as an advance payment on
promises as to what he will dc for them
in the future. Mr. Cook, this will not
do. The dodge SO successfully played
last fall in massing opposing and incon-
gruous elements, with a dead certainty
that somebody must be cheated has
been played once too often. The ex-
perieuce of railroad and anti-temper-
ance men in their "mix.up" with
anti-railroad and temperance men last
year, resulting in the election of
Taylor as governor, has not been such
as to j Justify the wisdom of attempting
to repeat it at this time.

A CRAWFISH CANDIDATE.

By way of demonstrating the pecul-
lar running qualities Of Doct. Reed,
the Democratic candidate for Senator,
we reproduce the figures showing the
result of former elections, when he was
before the people for their sufrages.
In 1866 he was candidate for
Member of Assembly in the Jefferson
district, and was elected by nine major
ity; receiving $50 votes against Q.
Bullwinkeps S73.
Having made gallant run, the Doc
tor was justly proud of his success, as
were his friends also, and the next year
he was put In the field for reelection.
His opponent was Jonas Folts. The
contest was very warm on both sides,
and resulted IN jNr. Fozts' election 6y
a majority Of 327. This, it will be
remembered, was in the same district
In which Reed was successful by
majority Of the year before.
Such revolution as this in public
sentiment meant something, and we will
leave our readers to draw their conclu-
sioDs and decide for themselves wheth-
err or not it was complimentary to Doct.
Reed. That he should have mourned
over his defeat was natural and that
he should have threatened the Repub-
lIean party with vengeance for ever
thereafter was to be expected by those
who knew how much he loved office,
and how bitterly he fit when he could
net have it. From that time down to
the present he has been a sour, gloomy
politician, who could see nothing good
In the Republican party, and has con-
spired with the enemy ever since his
DETECTION for its overlh brow. So pat
Tonizing has he been to the Democracy,
that IN 1872 they concluded to declare
a dividend in his favor and they nomi-
mated him for Member of Assembly.
against Hon. James E. Ostrander.
The people Of the district, however,
remembering his previous history as a
Member of the Assembly, took good
care to allow him to remain In. his re-
airement, and Mr.. Ostrander was elect
ed by handsome majority. This is
the kind Of candidate appearing as the
Democratic figure head for the Office Of
Senator. With such qualities of the
craWfish order for running as he pos
sesses, they would not have dared to
nominate him bat for the fact that the
district is SO largely Democratic as to
look irightful to the opposition. But
We have given the Democrats some.
thing to think of and trust they will
feel comfortably when they reflect that
they have displaced a man like Walter
s. Greene to make room for a sore
headed Republican, who, being no
longer able to rule in his party, was
determined to ruin.
