TILDEN'sLAsT wIGGLE.

Tilden has written letter, in which
he declares that if elected President, he
will veto any bill'providing for the pay
ment Of any rebel war claims. He labors
through two.thirds Of his letter talking
about the fourteenth amendment a mat
ter about which there is no dispute.
This letter is posted up all over Jackson.
in hand.bill form. 1t shows the danger
apprehended by the rebel Democracy,
from the strong case that is being made
out about these claims. 1t is the first
instance in the history of this country
where a candidate, on the eve of an
election, gave public pledge in advance,
that he would veto bill if passed. Ii
shows that defeat is inevitable. Ii is
something like the cases of Douglas and
Greeley. When they took the stump in
their own behalf, just before the election
it was an acknowledgment of defeat.
Does anybody believe this death bee
repentance TO be sincere? Not one
must be remembered that this is thu
same man who swore to false return il
the year 1868, by which he swindled tn
Government out of his income tax 70
the year 1862, and by which he swindle'
the Government out of the income ia:
due from him each Of the succeeding Tel
years.
The deople will be likely to settle thi
rebel claim business by the election O
Hayes.

Total


Ohio was carried by Republicans in 1872 by
1881.
Now let us inquire what has occurred
during the past four years which can
give the Democracy such confidence.
Two years ago the Democracy swept
the North, electing a large majority of
the members of the lower House of Con-
gress. The party had this success in
consequence of lying professions of ac-
quiescence nthe work of the Republican
party. No sooner did this success crown
the false pretenses of the party, than it
threw off all disguise, and showed its real
intentions. 1t is the same old party
which got up the rebellion in the interest
of human bondage, and fought four years
for the destruction of the Government.
What has been the result, and what are
the signs OF the times? The elections in
Vermont, Maine, Ohio, Colorado and In
diana, show that the northern States are
back at about the same point they occu-
pied at each Presidential election since
the war. West Virginia goes with the
solid South now, as the rebels and pre-
tended Union men there expect pay
from the Democratic party for every
thing lost or destroyed during the rebel
lion. We will speak of that in another
article. Tilden's letter, also shows the
desperate condition of his case as he
views it. We also speak of that in an
other place
We do not wish to brag, or hold out
false hopes. We prefer to do our rejoic-
ing when we are sure of something over
which to rejoice.

WORDS OF TRUTH AND SOBER.
NESS.

A good many Republicans are scared.
No use to deny this. We have been ask
ed forty times, what are our Central
Committee doing2 Are they not going
to do something! The Republicans say
the Democrats are working like beavers,
and must have hopes of doing something.
Democrats boast that they intend to re-
duce the Republican majority two hun
dred from the October election, in this
county.
We have no frantic appeals to make,
in black-faced type, to poor men, or black
men, or Welsh men, to vote the Republi-
can ticket We will only say this !:
Three Republicans in each township in
Ohio not voting, would give the State to
Tilden. So you see the importance Of
getting every Republican to the polls next
Tuesday. Let every Republican who
reads this, organize himself into a COM
mittee of one. for his school district, and
see that every Republican in that district
gets to the polls, and votes early. If this
be carried out in every school district in
Ohio, jackson county will give Hayes
600 majority, and Ohio will give him
$1,000 majority.

BRAG.

John g. Thompson. chairman of the
Democratic Central Committee at Colum-
bus, has issued secret circular, which
has been sent to all the Democratic pa
pers in the State, urging them to keep
up the game of brag until the election.
And they are obeying the order to the
very letter, with the addition that they
keep up their lying to an equal extent
They very well know that the fall cleo.
tions plainly indicate the success of the
Republican party, and that without this
game of lying and Dragging, the spirits
of the Democrats will become very much
depressed. And they also know that
Tilden is not a good candidate. The
Democratic papers attacked him bitterly
before the nomination. as a rascal, a
fraud and sham; and at that time his
perjury and rascality in the income swim
die had not been made public.
Let no Republican be deceived by the
lying and boasting Of the friends of the
solid South. You know very well that
they talked the very same way all
through the war. Upon an examination
of the files of their papers during the
last year of the war; we find that they
declared that the rebels could not be
conquered. During Sherman's great
march through the South they hoped,
and beliel ed, and declared, that his army
would be destroyed.
Let the boasting of the allies of the
rebels only inspire ecsry Republican to
attend the election, and vote for Hayes.

the sworn testimony establishing the ex-
istence of these outrages. The dough
face Democrats OF that day acted the
same as they act now, and as they acted
during the rebellion-they FIRST denied,
and then justified these outrages.
That party has several times carried
the State Of New York by open and ack.
nowledged frauds no less outrageous
than the Border Ruffian raids INTO Kan
sas in IS54-5. They are now fully or
ganized and bent upon electing a Presi-
dent by the same foul means. 1t is
about time that it should be settled
whether fair and honest election can
be held in this country. II the States o.
North Carolina, South Carolina Florida
Mississippi and Louisiana with their scl<
nowledged Republican majorities, are
carried for Tilden by the usual Demo
cratic rufiiapism, il is about time Il
change our system Of Government.

Bro. Acton, OF the Pacific Christian
Advocate, hits the Southern Democratic
h1rbariens, and their Northern allies, the
copperheads, a good blow, as follows:
rHE SOUTHERN MURDERS
The condition Of the South is simply
awful and if possible Is becoming worse
every day. The increasing murders Of
the iuoiiensivc negroes is not one whit
less atrocious, nor lees an uuprovoked
and bloody butchery than the similar
crimes OF the Turks That these things
can be done in an age and country ike
ours, and in the very twilight of the day
/ which made these negroes free men and
I American citizens, is to Us the most un-
I accountable Of all things. Some Of Us
/ were paid by the Government during the
war TO shoot down these miserable blood
thirsty wretches in the South, TO prevent
the destruction Of this Government, and
have lived 10 see the contract closed on
ly to be daily informed Of the cold blood.
ed butchery Of human beings which the
army made all the use OF u could and
then left protected-butchery which
under ordinary circumstances would not
be tolerated a fortnight upon a flock oi
sheep anywhere else in the Union. II
I
ment is to remain powerless TO prevent
it the sooner the days Of the rebellion
come back the better. IL is burlcsqu'
on government If we cannot do bette
than this, and the sooner the miserable
farce is overthrown the better. We tall

This is not the worst; there are me-
