FOR CONGRESS, 9Th DISTRICT:
COLUMBUS UPS0N,
OF BEXAE. ...' t....
,ro tho Dem ocrafs ofthe sixth
Conversational Dist. OF Texas
OF BEXAR.

FELLOW UIrIzEKs:-The fac' that
the late convention Of our party, when
met in San Antonio on the 18th or
last month, was pleased to elect me
chairman of the executive committee OF
this district, will, l trust, excuse my
ADDRESSING to you 70 this circular.
Tn that convention was nominated
~ our congressional candidate, the
Hon. COLUMBUS UrsoN, of Bexar
oounty-a man in every way highly
qualified to bo our representative.
Judge UpsoN came to Texas when he
had lust attained manhood, and for a
'period Of nearly twenty nine years, IN
peace and in war, hs has been identlti'
ed with our people, and more especially
with the people of western Texas; he
fully realizes the wants Of our citizens
and he will make an efficient agent
towards having those wants properly
considered. Hc has been life long
democrat, and one who never wavered
from the faith, if elected the same
energy and talents which have won tor
him distinction in his profession will
make him an able and successful ad-
yocate of the varied interests of this
district u character without astain ;
a political record without a blot
I. military reputation for gallantry, at
tested by the eulogy of that brave
commander. General Whiting who fell
at Fort Fisher-all give evidence that
in Judge UpsoN we should have an
honest, fearless and faithful represen-
tatiye. Fellow citizens, l need scarce
" call your attention to the Importance
of the coming election; but | would
remind you of the accumulated ills en-
tailed upon your country by the rule
of the Republican party. From por-
ton of those evils which fell with such
peculiar force upon the South, We have
in a measure, been relived, but it was
through the aid of the grand old DEM
ocratic party; but that ancient enemy
although partially overthrown, still
lives.
Our present majority in congress Is
small and, if we lose that majority we
know that the bolduess of the republi-
can leaders look to reconstruction oil
Of the Southern States as a means oil
retaining power, aud this,object being
once effected by them, God alone can
tell when we would again be free. But
the South has not suffered alone an
Expressing weight Of debt, an exhaust.
ing rate OF taxation, an unparalleled
dcarth OF money. an hourly increasing
amount OF poverty, want and crime
are ielt all over the land. No candid
,uln wall deny that those evils ar, the

publican. --.. --.-. ...-...--.-..--
No, no. We are MT ready to follow
your invitation. Just keep our temper;
for you must take the pricks we mean to
put to your conscience. You did say
and say repeatedly that between six and
seven hundred illegal Democratic votes
were polled at the late election. You
knew when you said that that you utter
ed falselood. We tenderly and care
fully call your attention to the reckless
assertion, calculated 10 destroy the good
opinion Of those abroad OF the good
morals of our citizens. You brazenly
repo ated the untruth. Asserting again
and again that from six to seven hun
dred Democrats voted Illegally. Then
you led your friends to swear that forty
four Democrats voted illegally in one
ward and published the names In the
affidavit. This was an untruth sworn to
by a good man we believe-led to this
error by the Republican and the advice OF
shabby law. What was TO be done 7?
Were these Democrats to be thus Sian
dered wil'ully, maliciously, to make po
litical capital? No indeed. Several OF
them quietly took the law. The others
being pursuaded not to sue.
Let every Democrat in the State bear
it in mind that the Republican has over
and over again repeated that between
six and seven hundred illegal votes were
polled in this city at the late election,
and let them note 1t down as a vile slaE-
der upon the city and the Democracy ;
and a charge Of incompeteney in its own
chosen Republican election officers.
The Republican says the GAZETTE is
sluggish. 1t will be pat,cnt with us then
while We hold the negro worshippers to
the point. We are not ready to discuss
the chances of Presidential candidates.
We want this lie cleared up first. The
GAZETTE urged that all rcpeaters and
illegal voters be punished, ard yet we
are told that the GAZETTE end 'avored
to cover up fraud. Such statement ha,
no truth in IL aud the editor Or writer
must have known it was false when lie
wrote it. One who would be guilty oi
saying there were six or seven hundred
illegal Democratic votes cast in this city
at the late election, and then fail to prove
here were more than eight or ten whose
names the Republican has given, would
utter falsehood on any other occasion
and is not creditable witness anyw here
In fact the readers of the Republican
have reason to believe from its own ad
missions that the writer Of its editorials
knows of more illegal Republican votes
that were cast on the occasion than h,
knows of illegal Democratic votes. Hi
admissions that he believes number 4
; Republicans voted legally because the
were not required to show their tax re
ceipts is sutli lent. II is fact that il
the Seventh Ward the largest ward an
where the heaviest Republican majori
ties are ma ie, no tax receipts were re
quired, and crowds Of neg oes were a
the polls, most of whom voted.
