Every man at his post of duty should be
the battle cry until sunset of November
seventh.

ty and honesty 81 have not word to say

If there is one thing that shocks the dem
ocratic mind moro than another. it is the
news that the fall trade is opening briskly.
Every rebel jailer or guard who was at
AndersonviIle, Belle Isle and Libby prison
supports Samuel J. TiIden, says the New
York Commercial.
All the vicious, thieving, corrupt ele-
ments in the Democratic party are moving

Remember, Republicans that our gallant
leader, General Hayes, though twice wound

no less than follow his example. Press ont
TiIden perjured himself when he swore
TO false income return. How does he,
then, expect US to believe his mere prom
Use not to favor the payment Of southern
claims?
The Eastern question is by no means set
tied and war is probable. If it once COM
mences all Europe viii be drawn in. The
latest returns, however, are somewhat more
favorable for peaceful solution.
Tilden is trying to hoodwink the loyal
North by telling it what he would do if he
should be elected. He will not pay rebel
debts or favor the refunding of the cotton
tax. The man who has perjury on his
lips would not haggle at common lying.
That Philadelphia villainy in which some
forty or fifty thousand tax receipts-qual-
feations for voting-were found in the
possession Of prominent Democrats, in the
process of preparation for distribution to
fraudulent voters, is a scheme worthy Of
TammanY Hall, in the palmiest days of
Boss Tweed.
The shotgun policy at the South; ballot
box stuhing at the North. By these twin
relics Of slavery, Democracy hopes to win.
Keep clear of the Centennial on the eth
of November. Every Republican who is
found away from home on election day
counts one vote for Tilden and the solid
South.
eUntil every question arising out of the
rebellion relating TO the integrity of the
nation and to human rights has been set
tied, and settled rightly, no man ought to
betrusted with power in this country. who,
during the struggle for the country's life,
was unfaithful to the Union and liberty"
Rutherford B. Hayes, in a Speech, 1867.
Some Of those sharp, nosing Democrats
found out that Governor Hayes got an
American Alliance letter, and answered it.
They were happy. But with the frank and
open. manner of its treatment by the Gov
erncr, no capital could be made of it. They
then found out also, that Sham Tilden got
one, too, and winhng that blind eye, said,
'Keep shady!"

1t stands out boldly that Democratic
success in one section lies over the dead
bodies, through the blood Of murdered Re
publcans, at the sacrefce Of the sancity of
Of the ballot-box, and the prostration of all
that constitutes Republican institutions,
and in the other, gross hypocrisy, bold de-
mails Of truth, and in the power Of Kelly,

repeaters of New York.
After a severe battle between the Turks
and Servians on the 25th, in which the
Servians and their Russian allies were bad
ly handled and defeated, an armistice Of
some SIX or eight weeks was asked for and
granted, and the terms were in the course
Of arrangement at the last advises. It will
be relief, If the frequent stories of cruel
ty which follow this struggle, can be sus-
pended for even a season.
Tiden is a man of many suits. There
is the great Terre Haute railroad case
the case of Harvey as. Tilden for the
fraudulent taking Of $5s,OOO of railway
bonds and the suit of the Government for
unpaid income tax, on all of which he has
got postponement. He will have so
much work to defend these actions that the
people will excuse him from the White
House Tor another four years.
Work while the day lasts. Only a few |
more days remain for active work. Let
them be devoted to the most earnest work
of the campaign. # any Republicans are
absent send for them at once. Every vote
is needed and every vote should be obtain
ed. Strengthen the whole line. Kindle
the camp fires everywhere, and when the
advance is sounded let freemen move for
w.rd with viii that means victory.
