Tbe people will not stand machine
work on the part Of Democrats. They
are tired Of Rings. They weary Of this
hothouse growing Of SPECIAL candidates,
and will not vote for Hlden, or any man
nominated through the means used for

We believe Tilden to be heartieSs, sci.

toward, bat which he will mot reach. We
DO not wish 70 Foe him President, any

We do not wish 10 see the country dis
graeedi the Democratic party betrayed
the people made poorer and thieves en-

against the nomination Of man four

do not wish him nominated. We have
registered an oath HepeT to vote for q man

God Almighty marked Butler with the

Of one who needed blinders, He has
siited into the minds Of people who are
honest a feeling OF fear Of Tilden and
all his gang. We know our duty. It is
to the people. We do not edit paper to
make money, but 10 have \ vehicle for

Did we know less Of public men, We
should be less afraid to trust many Of
them who live only for pIunder, Such q
man is Samuel J. Tilden, and we will not
