the last eight years, and from -
mouth of Governor Hayes, q "a

racy that he is in this position. a

Baltimore Gazette Ind: Everv
rotton republican ring is at work
for Hayes. Every republicans o..
ruptiOnist who has been sent ID IL

Inauguration as the hour when hia

Boss Shepherd is for Hayes ID "a
Babcock and Belknap, and Jegoo,

Fishback, Tom Murphy and Hae

him in every way possible. We "a
assured that General Hayes is hon

President. We have no reason 4
doubt his integrity. So far 6 y
know he made no money while i
Congress, but he stands upon h
cord as having voted for all the joh
and subsidies which the Blaines 81
the Colfaxes and the Ameses yota
for, and out of which they hav
grown 80 rich. He ought to hay

Bristow is a strong man; Hayes 10
weak one, and if the gold Of Il

fell through the flattery of the r.
