The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1878-10-24

The youth who scribbles some and bor-
rows the balance of his copy for the Rock
Island columns of the Gazette, and who.
having spent his spleen on the UnioN with
the harmless force of most Of his versatile
productions, now brings his mighty intel
lect I'd to bear on politics. Speaking of
Farmer Wilson, he says:
The democrats, more in joke than in
earnest, have put up good-natured old
farmer named Lewis Wilson, whose cleo
ton would be not only disgrace to that
party but the district.
To those who know Farmer Wilson, it
would be unnecessary to notice this inso-
lent, lying, dirty, mean and contemplate
attack On an honest and honorable man,
whose reputation is so thoroughly known
as to be a synonym with all that is honora-
BILE and upright. With those who do not
know Mr.. Wilson, however, the unjust
and lying Misrepresentation Of man who
is more than the peer Of the Gazette scrib-
bier, it may have some temporary weight.
Therefore we take occasion to say that
Farmer Wilson is a man of good sound
sense, fully conversant with and able to
handle successfully all issues now before
the people. The democracy of this and
Henry counties are not only proud of Mr..
| Wilson's candidacy, but confident of his
election. 1t is also a source of satisfac-
ton to know that he has never yet sold
his vote for "a set Of silverwareI
aud what is more, never
would. Further still we challenge
your man Ford, to meet Mr.. Wilson on
stump Gnyaohere Mr.. Wilson is straight
uncompromising democrat, which is sui.
icient for the Gazette scribbler. But
then what better oan you expect from q
man, who when editor of the Moline Re
Uie,o, and before he engaged with the
Gazette, openly stated at public meeting
that the aOOrSt republican, bad as he has
been painted, is better than the best dem,
ocrat that can be produced"
Tillinghast is one of those narrow mind.
ed republican partisans who never lose ar
opportunity to villify and traduce demo
crat, even though man like Farmer Viii
son, be assailed. Trot out your pedigree
of your man Ford, and make comparison
with Wilson if you dare. We defy you tt
do it. Give US his full biography anG
then let Wilson's be given. This done We
venture to say that Ford couldn't even b.
elected pound master" You dare no

republicans stay in the party until election

lican ticket. The Volks Zeitung goes
straight to the point.

Distinguished Democratic Speakers,
The People invited to hear the
Truth.

Truth.
Although under ordinary circumstances
the demand for public discussion in an
of year. is not regarded as an urgent
necessity, the extraordinary exertions
made by both the republican and the So
called national parties to create enthus-
asm in their ranks by public speaking at
the cross roads and every township school
house has led the democratic county COM
mittee to prepare for the final contest by
the adoption Of measures Of similar
kind. Wherever an audience could be
convened republican and national speakers
have appeared, and the minds of the peo-
pie have been assailed with sophistry, mis-
representation, and perverted financial
statements with intent to lead them away
from the sound and practical views of the
democracy, and to induce them to vote for
the candidates of the opposition. Not con-
tent with making an ostentatious parade
of their candidates and speakers, they have
industriously circulated false reports and
mischievous statements that the demo-
cratic candidates, and espe-
cialIy the democratic candidate
for congress, were Indifferent to the result,
and had no desire or intention to enter ac-
lively and publicly into the canvass. Such
gratuitous and lying statements, made with
out shadow of foundation, and renewed
even after repeated denials, can best be re-
futed by the presence and the speeches Of
those whose candidacy has been so want
only mystifed and maligned. In view Of
these facts arrangements have been made
for democratic meetings in various parts
of the county, and DR.. Todd candidate fol
