To Israel Test, Esq, Chairman Demo
cratic County Committe .
DEAR SIR: To correct abuses which
we believed had crept into, and were
corrupting our local politics for the
past two or three years, we have taken
Independent, and sometimes adverse
action to the party in whose political
tenets we have been educated, The
result has been the disruption OF the
Democratic Party us body, and bit
ter recrimination and personal invec.
tive amongst its members; and while
as we believe it has had the effect OF
rcctiying much that was Objectionable
in the Infringement Of the local poll
tics Of our co ntry, yet the natural rc-
suit has been to weaken any effort AT
effective combination for the National
Ticket. We are still Democrats, and
the success Of our party in November
demands that every member Of it
should unite in common cause TO over
throw the present corrupt administra-
ton, whose policy has prostrated the
industries OF every section. United
effort, must, and will, insure success.
And we call upon those of our friends
throughout the county who have taken
independent action with us, TO rally
under the banner of Democracy, sup.
port its nominees, and swell the great
army of Reform" And if in the fu-
turc any abuses should arise which
need correction, let us present our de-
mands, and by united action seek the
remedy within our own party ranks
We would therefore respectfully tender
to you as Chairman of the Democratic
County Committee our cordial coop
GRAFTON and support in forwarding the
success of our National and County
Ticket.
