THEY STICK At NOTHLNG-THE
OUTLOOE


| Tilden Journals have attempted, III
greater or lesser degree, to initiate the
tactics adopted by their leader, and have
stuck at nothing that they thought
would have the Ieast influence III ad-
vancing the interests of their candidate.
Such unblushing cheek and overwhelm-
ing mendacity was never before equalled,
as dispayc by TiIden journals and
speakers in the campaign of 1876. In
their redhot zeal they seem to Lave lost
all sense of decencv and proprlety, as
| some of their assertions are positively
idiotc in their utter uurea>onableness.
| OF these latter may be mentioned the
statement that Colorado had gone Dem
ocra;ic, and that Senator Conk'ing had
thrown up the sponge, declaring that
New York would give sixty-fve thou
sand majority for Iilden And yet
pools sold IN New York at Morrissey's,
ever since Tilden's nomination, Lave
stated, and never coutradicted, that
/ Morrissey, Wood, and other prominent
lights Of the Democracy, have wagered
large sums that 1iilen could Tot carry
! New York And we venture the as
/ sertion that there isn't man of average
] intel 'ect in Oregon, who is at all posted
in tic current news of the day, who be-
/ lieves that Tilden will carry New FORK,
or that las the least hope that he will
be elected President In the face of all
/ the vast frauds tliat have been attempt
| ed by Democrats III New York, Phila-
/ delphia, and otEer places, during the
/ past few days, uncarthed by Republican
/ officials, and tie parties arrested for
their crimes-we say, i'll the face of
/ these attempted vi,laiuies, will honest
! men still sup; ort Tildcn, who is the
q. tive originator of the entire scheme
for cheating the people of New York
and Pennsylvania ont of their choice of
T President Never! \ party claiming
+ to be in favor of .'reform," and yet orc
week before the election is proven to
have organized a gigantic system OF re-
peating, ballot-box stuffing and even
! .torgery, To carry an election, cannot
hope TO receive the suffragcs of honest
ncn.
The Democrats have no hope of the
election of Ti!den save through fraud
and viIlainy. If Iilden believed he
would carry tie electoral vote of his
ewn State, he never would have con-
coctcd the gigantic frauds uncarthed in
the city of New York day or two
since And mark the prediction: These
fiauds will be traced to Tilden, and his
barrc's oi money will not prevent Lis
paying the penalty to the State for out
ragged law.
The truth is, Tammany is divided,
Republicans are harmonious and arc
working as they never lid before for
success: and every indication leads to the
belief that even the Gibraltar of De
mocracy III America, New York city
itself, will be redeemed from Demo
cratic misrule, and that General Dix
will be the next Mayor. TIE principal
business men of shat gIelt metropolis,
but yesterday, united in publishing a
letter to the world, declaring that the
t election of Iilden would be ruinous to
the city and to the whole country.

Is identified with the rebellion and the
principles whicl, gave it lie, and its ad-

of Southern claims for compensation to

not be borne; that the credit of the gov

payment indefinitely postponed, and
endanger in future our peace and pros.

1t is probably true that, through in,
tilnidation AMI actual murder, tho
greater portion of the Southern States
may be carried for Tilden, but beyond
this Tilden now has little hope of car
rying single State. South Carolina,
North Carolina, Florida and Louisiana
are counted upon as surely for Hayes
and Wheeler. Republicans feel rea.
