TiEdcn VS.. Hayes.

resolution that brands him anC
his party as traitors.
Coy. Hayes was and is loyalty
itself and fought for the right
through the war, and is a Chris.
tan gentleman Of the most lofty
patriotism. He knew that his
country needed every man and
he went at The call, not staying al
home a despicable, whining cop.
perhead as was Mr.. Tilden with
out spunk enough to come South
and fight for the side he advoca-
ted at the Moth. While Mr.. Til.
den was in New York in his coy
office writing treason by the vol.
ume. Gov. Hayes was in the field
]haring its tolls and dangers help
ing to save his country from the
very ones who now shout loudest
for "Tilden and reform"-the
H%arrises, Vances, Hamptons &c.
Mr.. Tilden is a hard money man
in New York, but makes his min
ing hands take worthless paper
money for pay in Michigan. He,
as Gov. said New York State
should resume specie payment
Jan. 1st, 1879, but now says the
Resumption act should be repeal
ed.
Gov. Hayes is for sound money
and always has been. There is
no such double faced feature to
his record. He isn't on one side of
the fence one day and on the 9th
er the next He isn't one thing
in Ohio and another in Massachu-
sets. His record is clear and UNI
sullied and even Democracy has
not been able to pick a flaw in it.
Mr.. Tilden is known as q Grail
road smasher"and several suits are
pending against him inyolv-
ing millions Of dollars which it is
alleged he has unlawfully appro-
priated in shape Of Stock, Bonds,
&c.
No such suspicion even exists
against Gov. Hayes. He is as clear
as the MONDAY sun from all such
accusations and on his character
is no such smirch. No company
of his fellow beings are saying
you have robbed us Of our hard
earned means by your nefarious
5~cheming.
Mr.. Tilden was brought up po-
Iitically in Tammany Hall and for
many years was one of the lead
ers in that organization. Mr..
accused Mr.. Tilden Of
open completely in the frauds Of
that gave the State Of New
to Seymour over Grant, and
Mr.. Tilden never opened his
mouth in denial.
Boss Tweed was at the head
md front Of the Democracy in
hose days and Mr.. Tilden an open
worker in conjunction with him.
We cannot find anything Of this
n the political life Of Gov. Hayes.
Democracy itself can only say he
s a good man. He has governed
he great State of Ohio nearly
hree terms and is the same true
lan and politically pure. Which
hall we vote for, the man whose
ecord is so furnished or for him
Tho has stood the scrutiny Of the
ampaign and come out with char
cter unblemished9 DO we want
urity in the White House and
or do we want the spirit
{ Tammany Hall2
Next Tuesday we can answer
lese by the ballot--lct us think
