New-York tribune., 1875-08-31

Republicans meet these questions. They are In
danger of over-con6dence. Recent events have
doubtless much dispirited the more thoughtful
Democrats But the roaring mob which follows
Allen and Cary has all the faith Of the three
tailors of Tooley-st." believes itself to be 1.-THE
oeopler and gives to the Democratic campaign an
aggressive force which Republicans may easily
lespse too much. With really earnest, resolute and
we-drected work. appealing patiently to the intel
lgeuce and honesty of men who have either, re-
aucing to the minimum the number of those who
can be fooled by the humbug of initiation, rendering
plainly absurd any charge of shirking that issue,
and avoiding any over-straining or harshness of
language on the School question, the Republicans
ought to win surely, and by a good majority. But
they can easily the ship on rock, and knock a
hole in it. if they choose. OBSERVER.
