iers have made up their minds a. TO where
the fraud was in connection with the last
Presidential election. They have read the
secret correspondence OF tramercy Park,
and Yesterdays ballots tell what they think
of 1t. Ii is the public's verdict on the
course Of the Democratic party in power
IL is the Northern verdict on the attitude Of
