ALBANY, FRIDAY, APRIL Il, 1876.
N EARNEST.


The most cheering and inspiring
news comes up from every precinct in
Linn county. Everywhere, without an
exception, throughout the county comes
the welcome words: s'The attendance
at our Republican primary was the
largest ever known before, and every
thing passed off most tremendously"
Republicans are waking up to the du-
ties of the hour, and purpose showing
their strength in the coming battle, and
misrule and corruption in county affairs
will receive terrible rebuke in June.
A long-sufering and patient people,
after looking in vain for even sign of
s'reform and retrenchment" in county
affairs at the hands of Democracy, and
receiving no sign, but on the contrary
perceiving a new determination on the
part OF the Democratic leaders to con-
tinue to build up and enrich party ia
Vorites, no matter at what cost to the
taxpayers, have determined in their
sovereign might to cast out the evil
doers forever, and purge the high places
from the rottenness and fostering corrup-
tion with which they are reeking. All
over the county men are to be found
who heretofore have not attended pri-
maries, and scarcely ever voted, who
are now at work with might and main
to secure Republican triumph in June.
There is no other hope for Linn county
but in the success of the Republican
ticket. All true men in the county see
this now, and are looking with anxious
hearts to the results of the Republican
County Convention which assemblies in
this city next Wednesday. We are
sure the people viii not be disappoint-
ed, but that ticket of good, honest
and true men will be selected for their
sufrages men who have been
standing with their mouths open at
every convention within tie memory of
man, asking for office, but sterling, capa-
BILE, pure men, men of the people, who are
in sympathy with the people. and who
stand well with their neighbors. With
such ticket we cannot fail.

The Democratic Party and tl.c Granger.


Your Democratic politician is alive
to the fact that a Granger is a good
man, and the Democratic papers, al
most as with one voice, commended the
Grange and Grangers as long as they
did nothing but vote and vote tie
Independent or Democratic ticket. But
just as soon as the lIve Granger (farmer)
offers himself for office, these same poll
ticians aud journals give them the cold
shoulder at once II thus appears that,
seen through Democratic spectac,es, a
Granger is good enough as voter and
taxpayer, but is not good enough to
hold any Office ii which there is money
AS evidence of the truth of this propo-
sition, look at the Democratic ticket IN
Linn county. The only offices in which
there is really any money, are those of
Sheriff and Clerk, and although Gran
gers offered themselves for the position,
men as well qualified, we are told, to
iii the positions as the two who got
away with the nominations, yet they
were snubbed by the very men who
have all along professed to be warm
admirers and fast friends of the Gran
gers, aud their claims for Office ridi-
culed. Two chronic office-seekers asked
for tie Offices, and beside their claims
the Granger's honest petitions for al
equal share of the spoils of Office, al
though putting in all the capital, dwin-
dies into utter insignifcance. And the
Granger will still continue to foist into
Office thess political hacks that they
may tatten and grow purse-proud at the
public crib, and heap up taxes on the
heads of those who made and feed them
Oh, yes, Democratic Granger, 70 mat,
ter how much you are snnbbed aud
kicked and cursed and bled, you viii
still bow In humble submission to these
lordly non-producers, because, you
know, you are only fit to toll and vote
-yOu must not aspire to Office. none
but the aristocratic office-seeker is quail
6ed-has the ssbrain''-to fill moneyed
Offices in the Democratic party.

Thurlow Weed, in a letter on the
political situation, says, speaking OF
Babcock and Belknap: "The Republi-
can party will survive the overthrow Of
its unworthy representatives, provided
always that the party is prompt and
thorough in its publications. We
should be quick to discern, and as ready
to rebuke the dishonesty of officials in
our own party as in the party of oui
opponents. In this way only can Re.
puhlicans hope to maintain their ascen
dancy; for much more is expected o
us than of our opponents.

The earnest cry of the people, not

For swearing great round oaths, and
g,lzzling inmoderate quantities OF tan

these, bat few of them possess any
claims whatever. The Democratic
party having failed to present a ticket
the people will support, it now becomes
the duty of the Republican County
Convention to place in nomination a
ticket that the honest voter of the
county can conscientiously work and
vote tor. Place true men, men of char
acter and ability, upon our ticket, and
it will be elected by an overwhelming
majority.
