CAMPAIGN
CHICAGO TRIBUNE.
HIVES DE- WHEELER

The National Republican party have placed
its ticket and platform before the American
people. The Presidential Campaign will be
one OF the most exciting and important that
has ever occurred in the United States. The
result 0. tle contest will determine the future
good or i'll OF the country for generation to
come.
The Democratic Confederate alliances ia the
same in character and spirit as when the one
wing resolved that the war for the L MON was a
- failure" and the other wing tried desperately
to make it a failure. They are now harbor OF
refuge for sectional animosties and pro-slavery
sentiments. Since coming into control OF the
popular branch of Congress they have exhibit
ed no sta tesmanship, no wisdom nor patriot
ism-nothing but obstructive policies and de-
structlve purposes, showing themselves incapa-
BILE OF progress or even comprehending the
wants OF the country. They only NEEDLE
and muddle." With all their promises and
pretensious they have proven utter failures in
dealing with questions Of Taxation, Tariff,
Revenue, Currency or Reform.
III the Government again passes into the
hands Of the Democratc-C onfederates and
they secure possession OF the purse and the
swoyd, the army and the navy. the executive
authority and the law-making power, they will
substitute reaction for progress and re.estab-
lish reign OF terror and system OF peonage
in The South, and ballot-box stuffng and cor
ruption in the cities Of the North. Prudence
admonishes that I" the destinies of the country
in peace should be confded to those who saved
it in war"
1.-THE ascendency Of the Republican party lie
to be maintained, no agency will be more use
full and potential to that end than the Chicago
Tribune which has no superior 10 power and IN
fuence among Republican newspapers.
A Tribune Campaign Club is needed in every
neighborhood in the West to supply the people
with reliable facts and correct political informs-
ton.
