THE issue on which the country
is to vote this fall, and which is to
be decided, is more clearly defined
than usual. Indeed it was never
more clearly made up. 1t is between
the party of law and order on the
one side, and the party of disorder on
the other. The question is, shall the
Democratic party be granted new
lease of power in the House of Rep
resentatives at Washington 1t is in
its bearing on the peace and quiet
of the broad land that this question
becomes of tho greatest Importance
If Endorsed at the polls, that party
will proceed to consummate the high.
handed proceedings iuaugurated by
the Potter resolutions, and nothing
but rebuke through the ballot-bol
