this canvass. Let me say to my Liberal
friends in this county, Gov. Hayes can he
trusted, he is the coming man of the new
Centennial age, who will, if happily any
one can, bring the party and the nation back
into the true line If progress. You sag his
omination was the result OF the combna-

men of his patty are at the front pushing
his election as they did his nomination, ex-
pecting to hold controlling influence over
him If elected. You must remember that
n 0 man can be either nominated or elected
without majority vote. This majority
must come more or less from what you call
the bad element. Should not all honest men
rejoice. that bad as the world or q party is
respect is always paid to virtue. That the
unique and daring sablimity Of Governor
Hayes position wins TO him the respect of
the vile no less than it commands the
tribute of the good.
