CAMPAIGN
CHICAGO tribune.
HAYES e WHEELER

The National Republican party have placed
lie ticket and platform before the American
people. The Presidential Campaign will be
one OF the most exciting and important that
has ever occurred in the United States, The
result OF the contest will determine the future
good or i'll OF the country for q generation to
come.
The Democratic Confederate alliances is the
same in character and spirit as when the one
wing resolved that the war for the Union was q
failure and the other wing tried desperately
10 make it failure. They are now harbor oil
refuge for sectional animosites and pro-slayery
sentiments. Since coming into control OF the
popular branch OF Congress they have exhibit
ed no sta tesmanship, no wisdom nor patriot
ism-nothing but obstructive policies and de-
structlve purposes, showing themselves incapa'
BILE OF progress or even compromising the
and muddle." With all their promises and
pretensious they have proven utter failures in
dealing with questions OF Taxation, Tariff,
Revenue, Currency or Reform.
II the Government again passes into the
hands OF the Democrauc-C onfederates and
they secure possession OF the purse and the
sword, the army and the navy. the executive
authority and the law-making power, they will
substitute reaction for progress and re.estab-
lish reign of terror and asystem OF peonage
in the South, and ballot-box stufhng and cor
ruption in the cities OF the North. Prudence
IN peace should be confded to those who saved
it in war"
1.-THE ascendency of the Republican party lie
to be maintained, no agency will be more use
full and potential to that end than the Chicago
Tribune which has no superior 10 power and IN
fuence among Republican newspapers.
A Tribune Campaign Club is needed in every

with reliable facts and correct political Informs

The National Republican SAYS The city Of
Petersburg, Va, has . registered republican
majority OF 500; and yet the democrats carried
a recent election there by 800 majority Two
years ago. notwithstanding the registered re-
publican msjonty was quite as large as il Is
now, the democracy carried the election by
stuffed ballots, and this Is the way they accom-
pushed their nefarous purpose.
They inclosed in an ordinary-slzed ballot OF
three by four inches large number OF dlminu-
tive tickets OF about half.inch in their dimen-
sons, and on very thin paper. When, there
fore, the box was shaken by the democratic
judges these bogus tickets came out and upon
counting the vote II was, OF course, found that
the tickets in the box greatly exceeded the list
OF voters as kept by the clerks. II became
necessary therefore. in conformity with the
law, 10 draw out until the number was reduced
to correspond with the clerks books. The
matter having all been previously arranged, of
course none was drawn but the larger ballots !;
thus the smaller, or bogus tickets, which we're
all put IN by democrats, being left, they we're
counted as genuine. and the democratic candl-
dates declared elected.
At the last charter election, in order to de-
Feat repetition OF the ballot-stufhng trick.
the republicans adopted and put into practice
the tally system, They placed two or three
'taily-sheet men" at each pol to take down
the name and residence OF every republican
voter. And now We propose to show how the
white ex-rebel democrates disposed OF the tally
sheet system, which, when carried out to the
end, offers an insuperable obstacle to ballot
stuffng frauds.
In one ward OF Petersburg. the roughs or
ganized, attacked the republican headquarters,
shot men with pistols, and snatched away their
tally books, one OF the roughs was arrested,
but was soon discharged. In another ward
they first demanded the tally-books, and, when
refused, advanced. broke down the doors OF
the house where the books had been concealed.
beat poor, paralytic colored man nearly to
death, and marched of with part OF the books
These roughs feel that they are protected in
whatever they do. If they get into difficulty.
the best counsel IN the community Is provided
for them, and they are sure to be cleared. NO
republicans life Is safe who takes an active
interest in the politics Of his party.
We agree with the Chicago Inter-Ocean that
the preservation Of the union depends upon
putting down every species Of violence against
the negro citizen, and crushing out, with the
strong arm, all attempts to deprive him OF the
full, free and complete exercise Of every right
guaranteed HIM by the constitution OF his coun-
try.
