come naturally In contact with the Germans
| or who might be Influenced by them in daily
/ business. The Germans are a very peculiar
Kind or people, you must recOllect: In they
have an opinion they will go for Il. As 10
Carl Schurz, ! can say what his following
will be. know that II the German people
make up their minds, az they will in this
contest, they will follow their own opinions
and not the opinions or prOfes siOns OF their
leaders. Furthermore, the Germans al
ways follow their own mterests-I mean
their material interests-and j know that
they are very skeptical as 10 politics and
politicians. They do not think politicians
70 be Trustworthy as / understand
tnem. There are many leading
Germans who have declared
for Tilden. Frederick Hasaurek, in the
West, l. a man OF very great talents. He is
not known so much in the East. Hasaurek
was warm supporter OF Abraham Lincoln
when he ran for the presidency. Hasaurek
Is ardent In his support OF Tlden. Ex-Gov-
ernor kOerner OF Illinois was for Lincoln
warmly. He is now for Tilden. lie was
formerly also on Fremont's staff. Judge
siallo Of Cincinnati, one OF the most hon.
est OF men, wss for Lincoln. He is a man
OF powerful influence. Judge stallo j. now
for Tilden. Rumele OF Ohio is also man
OF great Influence, and he is now support
ing 11lden among our German people.
Again i assert that the German people want
itfNai OF tIaue, lney WANT peace, they
want a change, they dom trust this Admin
istration. and this thing has 10 be ended
this system OF keeping up antagOnisms be-
tween the two races, white ana black, i'm
the South. IL must be ended once and for
all In this coming election"
'Do you think, Gen. Sgel, that the
country will be safe in the hands OF Gov.
1ilden IL he should be elected President Of
the United Statesy''
Gen. Sigel: Why, certainly. There are
objections made by great many good and
Well meaning men 20 Gov. Tilden's elec-
ton, with the ides that there would be 2
danger 10 10 the republic in the concentra-
ton Of 50 much Of the nations power in the
hands OF the chief OF the Democratic marty.

pointed for life or during good behavior.
snd are they not loyal 20 the Government
! should think that they were, and think
that the Army and Navy are much more loyal
now 10 the Government than IL was previous
TO the war. And then certain PEG ole are
afraid that disturbances would arise in the
southern states after the election OF Mr..
lilden. / do not believe that Mr.. Tilden
would permit such disturbances and il he
did they would be put down. IL will be i'm
the interest Of Democratic Government,
Win Coy. Iilden al it head, 10 avoid and
prevent all such causes OF discomfort: be-
cause. in case OF any really serious trouble
al the south, and any neglect in the Admin
istration OF the Government To crush such
disturbances, and a rebellion were threat
ened, the American people would rise like
one man and meet the danger. | myself
would enlist ss a volunteer again, bv C..
a. did before. But there is no suIh dam
ger possible with Gov. Tilden a. President.
The people the Army and Navy and the Ju-
dietary are loyal, and these are guarantees
enough for safety.
