Notes Of the Campaign.

\
Hassaurek, has come out squarely for Hayes
and Wheeler.
An Oregon paper put cut OF a big
turkey over its election returns, and said ::
Not he that crows, but he that gobbles
makes most out of elections
The Dayton (Ohio) Journal says that
Hon. George w. Houk, Democratic dele
rate to the St. Louis Convention, openly
repudates the I'ilden ticket.
The Milford (Del) Ne,rs believes that
with strong candidate for Congress in the
field the Republicans can carry the State
Tor HAYES and Wheeler.
Tildcn and Hendricks together, the
Hartford C0arant truthfully says, make
ticket that no sincere man of either creed
(hard money or greenbacll) can accept.
The Albany ,JosqnoI says that Gov.
HAYES has already laid out three Democra-
tic aspirants for the Presidentcy-Thur-
man. Pendleton and Allen-and its Tilden's
turn NOW.
The Richmond (Va) Whig expresses
the opinion that Hayes is entirely too
good and liberal man for his intolerant,
selfish and corrupt party" Well, he is to
be President OF the country,
The Alexandria (Fa) Sentinel, which
has always heretofore acted with the Con
servatives Gas the Democrats affect to call
thcmsclvcs) in that State, runs up the flag
Of Hayes and Wheeler, and advocates their
election.
The Burlington Iowa) Gazette hoped
for the election Of two or three Democratic
Concrcssmen from Iowa, but now despair
inclv saws :-"The nomination Of Tildcn
will defeat us il every Congressional dis
trict Of the State
Says the Nashville (Tcnn.) Banner =
There are Democrats in Nashville, we re-
cret to say, who opently announce that
they viii vote for Hayes in preference to
TiIdeu. and leave nothing undone to secure
the defeat Of the latter"
The Ross county (Ohio) Register re
marks The nomination OF Tilden fell
Ike sharp frost late in the season on the
hopes of Ross county Democrats, and black
cucd the buds Of promise which were bloom
ing in their bosoms.'
Hon John d. Defrces, Of Indiana, who
was leading supporter Of Greeley in 1872,
las written a strong letter IN favor Of Hayes
and Wheeler lie thinks Hayes just the
right man for PRESIDENT and that Wheeler
Is his equal IN character and ability.
The impression made by Governor Hayes
upon the PhiIadelphisus was very favor
able. He held several immense receptions
at the Ohio building, ON the Centennial
grounds, and as lion far cXceilcd Dom
Pedro. The conviction grows that he Is
safe and sure man for the Presidency.
The Steubenville (O) Gazette, unwil-
linz to stuitify It's record, declares unequiyo-
.caliy that it viii do nothing whatever to
further Tildcn's election. 1t does not con
slider any man Democrat who used his
money and influence to defeat Governor
Allen last year, as it charges Mr.. Tilden
with having done.
The New York Tribune says Tho
Democratic journals Of the East have un-
dcrtaken the stupcndous task Of making
cut Governor IFndricks Il hard money
man. The great American Fence Sitter
has been pretty successful in dodging most
public questions, but he has just put him
self on record as an iuiationist, and the re
cord can't be talked down"
The indianapolis Journal says that
Goy IIcudrick' ) position toward the nom
ination for Nice-President IS just this -
He will accept if the specie resumption
act Is repealed, and having been assured
that it will be By the Democratic House, a
letter may be looked for from him before
long. But it Is stated, further, that if the
act Is not 50 repealed within twO weeks or
thercabouts. nc will decline"
Here Is what the venerable Thurlow
Weed says Of Tilden He did not 90 to
the trout in the hour Of the country peril
Ills voice was not heard in the time Of
danger, and when money was needed for
the windows and orphans, Mr.. Tilden's
purse was not open. No vote Of mine shall
ever aid to elect a President who was not
in sympathy, and publicly known to be a
war man, loyal to the core, ready with his
voice, his influence, and his means to help
his country and uphold her flag. Mr.. Til
den was not one Of these"
The Albany Jouyaul says that Hon. /.
c, KiIham, of Madison county, who has
Just made an extensive tour through the
West on his return from Colorado, where
he spent the winter, reports that he has
found great and unbounded enthusiasm for
Hayes and Wheeler. In Kansas, Nebraska,
Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan and
Ohio, he says the Republican camp-fres
are already burning with the old-time In
tensity Chicago and Cleveland are especial
y earnest and enthusiastic in the praise of
Hayes. The ticket aud platform are com
manded by the Republicans and Independ-
ents in all the States through which he
passed.
