Ioo-confident Democrats NAV, how
ever, learn a valuable lesson from the
defeat Of Tuesday. They can see that
the line Is drawn precisely where il was
and as i was in 1876; that the enemy
has not been dislodged from any i'm

1876, nothing short Of the hardest kind
OF lighting will win. And the incen-
tives to hard fighting are even more

After such an unmisfakable setting
