Zach Chandler and his National Com

campaign. are said to be dumbfounded
at the news which reached Washington
n few days ago. to the effect that the
Germans in Michigan, who have here
tofore acted with the Republicans, are
going over in large bodies to Tilden.
Their patience is at last exhausted, and
the possibility OF continuing Grant1sm

Reputation of she country.


There arc some notable deductions to
be made from the census taken in a
number of the States during the last
year. One of the most noticeable is the
abstention from the polls of a large
number of citizens. In fact, thus evil
seems to bc on the increase. AS TO in
crease of population, the returns from
fourteen States lin one of which, Miclli-
gan, the census was taken in 1874 }
show an addition to that of 1870 OF at
least 100000 persons. The accurate
character of the returns from three States
South arolina, Louisiana and Texas
arc disputed. In the two first named
States the enumerations are asserted to
have been incompetent. In Texas the
fet1rns are an estimate based OH a school
census. The actual increase in the
other eleven States in 1,612, 600 This
makes approximately an increase for the
whole country of about six millions.
The present decade when 1t closes will
show a larger proportionate increase
than any of those that have preceded it.

Unite Under the old Flag.

AS the time for helding our County
Convention approaches, Republicans
should begin to bestir themselves, and
consider what is their duty in the prem
ises. The cause of the continued defeat
of the Republican party i'll Linn hereto
lore, has not been SO much for lack of
xoters, as it has been because of lack o!
harmony, want of union, in the rank
aud fi.e OF the party. Had there been
10 Discussions in our ranks, and had the
full Republican vote been polled at the
last election, all can now see how diff
&rcnt would have been the result.
The object and aim of the Democra-
cy of Linn especially, has been, and still
is, to stir mp strife and create bitterness
between individual members of the Re
publican party of Linn; and they, the
leaders of the Democracy, have left no
stone unturned to effect this grand OBJ
ject. They reason /: eff the Republi-
cans of Linn unite, then the day of Demo-
cratic ruIe-the day of high taxes-is
passed away forever as with the inau-
guration of Republican officials, our
wrong-doing and misdeeds viii be un-
earthed and brought to light, and we
shall no more be abe to stand before
this Peop!e.
Republicans owe it to themselves, to
the country, TO come forward like loyal ,
free American citizens, and, burying all
past differences, work together harmo-
lIiously for the success of the Republi-
can party, assured if they do this, success
in June next will perch upon the BAN
per of the party of the Union-the rar-
ty that, all through the dark days OF re-
bellion, stood steadfast, and conquered
under the Old Flag. Let us as Repub-
licals, as well as all levers of honest
government, economy ia county ex-
pepses, and reduction of the present
outrageous taxation, unite, and working
shoulder to shoulder, we shall succeed
in placing in nomination and electing
capable, honest men, who win work in
the interest of the whole people, and
not to favor and enrich few seedy
politicians. Let every honest, conscien-
tious man but do his duty and all will
be well

The Union League Club, which repre-
sents the unofficial end of the Republican
party of this city, has felt impeiied to ex-
press itself. 1t has resolved that no man
should besnominated WHO Is not entirely
free from complications that would lead
him in that direction. This Is somewhat
ambiguous, but there can be no doubt as to
its meaning. 1t is n dig at Grant aud at
Roscoe Conklin, and q protest against the

for throwing over board of the probes

Right or wong, there Is n terrible feeling
OF distrHst of the old stagers, and a desire
for new men. The country will do what
is did in 1864. when Sherman, Colflx.

the Republican party came to the surface.
That Congress was made up almost entire
ly of new men, and so will the next be.

ones, have done the young aspirants of the
country an immense service.

It is not the best policy in the world,
when searching for good, competent
men to FL county offices of profit and
trust, to select men who have been
working for months and years, it may
be, for the position; because, during the

may have expended great deal OF
money to advance their interests, and
sometimes, after they have secured the
desire of their hearts, they feel it in
eumbent upon them to ssget evcn," as
they term it, with the people for these

The man who is known as skiiifnl
