They explain themselves; and VIII greatly
surprise any one who has given a hearing
and belief in the continued prosecutions
that have been made upon the administra-
ton of Grant for its xtravagancc. The
losses in the sold times" that are preached
SO much about by the democrats, when
they were in power, on an average were
from twenty-eight to thirty times greater
the losses during Grants administrations
although the government transacts twice
as much business now as it did then.
1t will be seen by the above table that
the losses from dishonest and corrupt Of
ficials during Buchanan's administration,
which was the Last democratic one, were
SS.77 on every $1,000; and in Lincolns
and Johnson's 1t was 81 SO on every $1,000;
while in Grants first term the losses were
brought down to S1.59 on 1000, which is
less than the terms of Lincoln and John
son, and in his Grants second term 1t lie
brought down to Sl.01 on $1,000, which is
the smallest upon the book OF the govern
ment.
Do not such facts prove a great deal
about the extravagance and dishonesty OF
the republicans
Again, the losses in second column show
an equal and corresponding decrease, they
being during Grants second term only
twenty-six cents on every $1,000, while
during Buchanau's administration it is So %
on every $1,000! Now what do such fig
ures-what do such facts tell and show ev-
cry intelligent American? Do they not
point out the very thing that will happen
if the democratic party get into power?
Do they not clearly show that the repub-
licans have been the most economical, and
faithful that has been in power and office
for the last forty years Do they not ex'
plain and simplify the meaning of the term
''reform" and anything for change, which
is predicted to follow il the democratic
party succeed in electing Tilden aud Hen
bricks. The democrats feel sure OF elect
ing their nominees this fall, but his chances
are not good enough to warrant any such
thing.
The barrels of money which it is said he
is sending to the New England states may
help his cause little with some, and in
some places, yet we do not suppose he has
money enough to his name, to buy but a
small number of the Hayes and Wheeler
votes in Old New England True and firm
to the last Glory TO her honored name
Long may she continue to be power IN
the land. May Gods blessing and guild
ance ever rest upon the sons of New Eng
land wherever found May the precious
examples and deeds of her patriot dead
never be forgotten or lost, but be remem-
bered evermore in the acts aud deeds Of
her noble sons. / suppose tibet | need not
tell the editor of THE GLOBE that | am but
a young man, for he can learn as much
from my letter. Anyhow it Is true, that
am young, and for that reason | have never
as yet been allowed the privilege of voting.
But vote for the first time in my life, this
fall, and shall be happy to give my vote to
support the republicans in elec.ing such
men as Hayes and Wheeler. They are men
whose records for the rast can safely be
brought to light, and they will not suffer,
but rather be very much exalted in the
minds of their countrymen, by having their
past deeds and actions disclosed. That's
my opinion.
But what can be said of bachelor Til
denis and Hendricks records; VIII they
bear the clear light of investigation and
profit thereby. No, never What are
their precedents, for by them can we safely
determine their future course if they should
be elected to the offices for which they
were nominated. Tilden's cry of reform
Is nothing but fraud and delusion. Look
up his past record and it will tell the same
it will show his future course if he should
be elected.
Before closing this time allow me to say,
that if Tilien shall be elected. his admins
tralion will be very much the same as Blu
chanans was. Buchanan wa. 90 old bach
elor-so is Tildcn. Buchanan was dem
ocrat and sympathizer with the south
80 is Tilden Buchanan hid az the White
House like Il coward, and allowed the de-
mons of secession to eend the governments
navy to the four corners OF the globe, SC
that it would be far enough from home

and arms to the Southern States, that they
might be prepared to ruin and destroy the
best government that has ever existed
need it be said that Tilden will be ready to
do the same? And Buchanan never said a
word against such doings-neither will Til
den. He! no, for he does not fully sympa-
thize with the EcccssiOnists Then why can
we not place good reliable men like Hayes
and Wheeler at the head of the govern
ment and thus save to the country the pre-
cious life and blood of its best citizens ;
and actually groan under billions of dollars
of public debt
1t Will never pay to support such men as
S. j. Tilden for if elected, discourse will
be similar to that of Buchanan. He
is in sympathy with the secessionists, and
will always secretly side with them. 1t is
thought that he will receive his greatest
support from the south in the coming cleo.
ton. They expect great deal from Til
den, and so will do their utmost for his
election. The southerners want the gov
ernmcnt to ''pay for their slaves, and also
to pay up the war debts of the confederacy.
Debts contracted to oppose and destroy the
government of the United States. Is ii
possible that the people of the United
States are in favor Of paying such debts 2
No, 1t cannot be. The majority will never
favor the payment of such debts. Well,
let them go to the polls and make sure the
election of Rutherford B. Hayc, and VIII
liam A. Wheeler. That seems to be the
only offset attainable. We find that in
1868, under the direction of Tiden, in foui
wards in New York city, 23, 1913 persons
voted, while there were not in the tamt
over 1900 regular voters. Tiden pro
cured for Hoffman, the democrat, ma
jority of II ,443 out of less than ~, 00(
voters. What then, does such doings a!
that tell but 'look out for Tilden 2"
Every one is ready to admit that there il
no doubt as to the course which old Yer
mont will pursue, and yet let every pairi
olic heart within its boundaries determine
to make Vermont speak louder and stronger
for Hayes and Wheeler then it has eyel
done before for any president.
The New York Times has the following
IN its daily column, in regard to S. j. Til
den:
"Due regard to the public interests, t.
the general welfare, and the truth of his
tory demands that Samuel }. Tilden shall
be shown to be what he has been in thu
past and is in the present:
1. A secessionst.
Q. An alley of Tweed.
3. A sham reformer.
4. A swindler of labor and wrecker o
railroads."
Now, it is very likely that there ar
many persons who, if they read this lette
of mine, will be ready and willing to blam
and deride me for wiring it, and even say
1t would have been more becoming ant
wiser in youth who has not polled hi
first vote, to ''dry up" keep slill,' ant
