FELLow-CITIzENs: We are met at the
threshold with serious charge, which is in
tended to close all minds against any fair
reasoning in favor of the claims of the
Democratic party. That charge is that the
Democratic party brought on the civil war /;
war which cost half million of lives, the
lives of the bravest and best, and which
cost, in waste of labor, money, materials and
credits, ten thousand million dollars (S10,-
900, ,000, ,600) and therefore the Democratic
party has no right to come into power. 1t has
no right even to be heard.
My best answer to this often repeated
charge is, that the Democratic party South,
as well as North, as it was organized in 1872,
when it nominated Horace Greeley for Presi-
dent and B. Gratz Brown for Vice-President;
and again in 1876, at st. Louis, when itnomi-
mated Samuel J. Tilden for President, and
Thomas A. Hendricks for Vice-President
applause is, in principle, in all respects as
free from any doctrine or sentiment tending
to slavery, or to secession, or to civil war, as
the Republican party is, or ever has been.
Every body knows this who has read the
platforms of 1872 and 1876. This charge of
Chandler, Morton, and other leaders of the
Republican party is unfounded in logic and
in truth. The truth is the Democratic Liberal
Democracy and Liberal Republicanism Of
1876 is reorganized upon the basis of Lib
eral Democracy and Liberal Republicanism
of 1876. The Democratic party is in substance
now like the old Democratic Republican
party Of Madison and Of Jackson. Itis not

What is Ahead for the Republican
Party.
New York SUM-

Either Mr.. Hayes is a man of little
strength of purpose, and of very slender
backbone, as we believe, or he is not;
and in either case Republicans who
really regard the good of the country as
of supreme importance, ought to con-
slider carefully whether it is not their
duty either to vote for Mr.. Tilden, or not
to vote at all.
In the event of Mr.. Hayes's election,
one or two things must happen; either
he will submit to the corrupt and
coDscienceless leaders of the party, or he
will stand by the promises and represen-
tations he has made to his private
friends, and break utterly with those
leaders. In the event of his submission,
the Republican party must sink into a
deeper slough of corruption than it has
yet sounded; in the event of his resis-
tance, it must be disrupted by more
violent and embittered quarrel than
that which the Wing party passed
through when John Tyler set up on his
own account, or that which shook the
Republican party when Andrew johnson
turned against it. And while Mr.. Hayes
would become to the majority of the
party the most odious creature in the
country, the party itself would be
shivered into fragments and destroyed,
as it would not be by the election of Mr..
Tilden.
The shadow of this internecine conflict
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-09-28

According to these figures Tilden
would have twelve votes to spare, and
Hayes would require fifty-six to elect.
Conceding to him the four States class
flied as doubtful, he would still be short
thirteen votes. Where are they to come
from is question which the Republican
managers have not been able to answer to
their own satisfaction.
The most interesting points at this
time are Indiana and Ohio. No doubt
is entertained by the Congressional
Democratic Committee as to decided
majority in Indiana for Williams The
estimates generally agree upon fifteen
thousand, though there may be margin
of five thousand either way. At the
outset of the canvass the Democrats did
not count upon Ohio at all as one of the
necessary elements to elect. Previous
distractions on the currency had wrought
bad feeling and divisions. Now they
are united heartily, and the Republicans
are giving ground in the manufacturing
counties. The Germans are substantially
united for Tilden in the cities and towns
where they are mostly found in large
numbers. They have cast off Schurz as
leader-at least for this occasion. The
reports are encouraging, and the result
will be close but the State is put down
as doubtful.
Wisconsin is included in the doubtful
list, though the accessions to Tilden are
numerous, and the Germans are Jealous

Democratic Prospects.

The Congressional Democratic Com
mittee at Washington, who are engaged
in distributing political information,
documents, and speeches, keep up con-
slant and very expensive Correspondence
with all parts of the country, and neces-
sarily seek to be well informed as to the
prospects of the Presidential election.
Great pains have been taken 10 form
sound Judgment, by seeing facts in
detail through the local organizations,
discarding enthusiastic reports, and re-
jecting loose estimates OF supposed
strength.
Entire confidence in the election of
Gov. Tilden is felt, and unless all the
signs should prove false, or an unexpected
reaction occur, his majority in the Elec-
torial College will surprise some of his
friends as much as his most pronunoed
opponents. The drift of public opinion
is favorable, and if October States do not
disappoint expectation the Presidential
contest will virtually end with the cleo
tion Of that plain and honest farmer,
Blue jeans Williams, as Governor OF
Indiana. The figures to work out the
general result are as follows:

WHOLE NUMBER 49l.

within the lines of the Republican party
is clearly outlined in the following
PASSAGE from the Springfield Republican,
Journal doing its best for the election
of Hayes and Wheeler:
OF course, he can not prevent the Blaines
and Mortons and Buffers and Ingersolls sup
porting him-and supporting him in their
own way. But he can prevent their crowd
ing and jostling the other sort-hiS sort-of
Republicans into the background. Without
violating the conventional proprieties of a
Presidential candidature, he can give the
country to understand where his sympathies
are as between the Bristows, Schurzes, and
Coxes on the one hand, and the gentlemen
in dyed garments who run with the machine
on the other.
The recent experience of Mr.. Schurz,
in whose retirement from the canvass
there is every reason for believing Mr..
Hayes concurred, indicates very clearly
that the Republican candidate is not of
a temper and quality to take such a
course as our Springfield contemporary
advises. He will never dare to show by
decisive action that his sympathies are
with the Bristows, the Schurzes, and
Coxes of the party, and against the
Chambers, the Buffers, the Blaines, and
the Grants. He has not done this yet,
and how can he ever summon up courage
to do it? And if he can not do it before
the election, when it would be compare
lively easy and painless, what hope is
there of his doing it afterward, when it
would provoke hot and terrific conflict,
full of danger and pregnant with de-
struction? .-E
These are things which Republicans
would do well to think of seriously.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-09-28

in his support. The accounts from there
claim the State for the Democrats deci-
sively.
No fear is entertained of the votes of
Florida, North Carolina, or Mississippi,
which the Republicans have treated as
uncertain. North Carolina will give
Tilden not less than ten thousand
majority, and it may reach double that
number. Peace prevails in Florida and
Mississippi, and that is the best assurance
of a Democratic victory III both States.
But for the corrupt Returning Board
in Louisiana, no doubt of any kind would
be admitted in regard to that State. If
frauds can control the vote, and the vote
is essential they will be perpetrated.
But the belief is general that the Demo-
cratic majority will be so overwhelming
that the managers will not venture upon
this experiment. Colorado is claimed
by both parties, but as it is about to es-
cape from a Territorial condition. the
Federal patronage becomes an import
ant factor in determining the result, and
will be used without scruple, in view es-
pecially of two new Senators.
No serious attention is given by the
Democratic Committee to the newspaper
reports about West Virginia, which
originate with the Republicans. That
State is booked for eight or ten thousand
for Tilden.
While no claim has been made for
South Carolina it is known that the
colored detection is large enough to
Justify great expectations; and the re-
cent local elections prove that in spite of
threats and violence by the Republican
leaders many blacks are separating from
the fold, joining Tilden clubs, and voting
the Democratic ticket. This is the view
of the situation taken here by the most
prudent members of the Congressional
Democratic Committee, though some of
them make much larger estimates, and
include States that are usually conceded
to Hayes.
If the October elections favor Tilden
to the extent anticipated, a stampede
may be looked for among the Republi
cans, which can not be arrested by any
artful management. A decided Demo
cratic victory in Indiana-though sue
cess may easily be achieved without it
would be the signal for still grander
triumph in November.
The popular impression that Mr.. Til
denis friends have contributed literally
of the sinews of war, and the stories cir
culated to that effect from Vermont and
Maine preceding the recent elections, are
entirely unfounded. The want of means
for the most legitimate purposes has been
all along, and is to-day, one of the serious
embarrassments of the campaign. When
the whole truth is written. and the actual
facts are known, the public will be as
tonished at the economy with which
this national canvass has been conducted
on one side at least.

The Bloody Shirt Failure-TestimOny
of the Leading Neutral Newspaper.
New York Herald

The sudden and general determination
to carry the campaign on the Southern
issue, shows uncomfortable alarm among
the Republican leaders. They are panic
stricken. They have compared notes,
and their conclusion appears to be that
on a fair canvass, ON the real issues of
the year, they will lose, and in despera-
tion the wcrd has gone out to fling the
"bloody shirt" to the breeze and make
the appeal, not to the reason, the honesty
and patriotism of the country, but to
prejudice, hatred, fear, and ignorance.
That is the way it looks to cool observ-
ers; and even if this were not the cor
rect theory of their policy, it is still true
that such is the suppression it makes.
Shrewd political calculators say, if the
Republican managers were not badly
frightened they would not force an obso-
lete and hateful issue upon the coun-
try. If they felt moderately sure of win
ming they would argue; it is because
they feel themselves weak that they take
to vituperation and denunciation.
The policy of denunciation, this ex-
clusion of reform and concentration on
the Southern issue is blunder of the
Republican leaders in several ways. 1t
alienates large mass of voters; it Gre
ates feeling of distrust and alarm
among the calculating or "loose" voters,
and it places the party in false relation
to the living issues OF the day. 1t may
exasperate and alarm timid and igno-
rant voters, but it cannot carry the coun-
try No thoughtful voter believes that
the country would be seriously endan-
gered or hurt if the Democrats should
come into power, and that sort of Lon-
sense excites as much contempt in SEN
sible men as the foolish assertion of
Democratic organs that the country
would be ruined if the Republicans
should succeed. If the RepublicaRparty
is to be for another four years party of
prescription in the South, party en-
couraging misgovernment and trading
on outrage there, then it is by all means
best, for all our interests, North and
South, that the Democrats should come
in; and this is the opinion of great
many thousand Republican voters, with
out whom the Republicans cannot sue
ceed in November,
