after having been spurned by them and
given TO understand that the democratic
vote was of no consequence Uncertainty
never will be of any consequence as long as
they allow themselves to be hoodwinked
and gulled with every republican artifce.
The democracy have done well in nomina-
ting so excellent ticket and its good re-
suits are beginning to crop out in the
uneasiness exhibited by republicans, and
the wonderful solicitude for the democratic
vote in the fourth ward, which two weeks
ago they did not deem worthy of a moments
notice. All that is necessary is fidelity to
your candidates and united work to insure
success in the third and fourth wards. To
the first and second the contest will be hot
and democratic diligence should be doub
led, and if you are defeated, let 1t be like
men.
