THERE arc nearly 100000 legal
voters in Kentucky, aud it requires a
majority of them to cast their votes Tor
a constitutional convention, or the
question is lost.
The Democratic Committee urge
Democrats to vote at the August cleo

as q criterion hersahor,
A DFAD town is made 50 by sleepy
headed. dull people. Wherever the
people are alive, active, enterprisiOg
and busy at something, there is pros

THE Democrats who are now acting
with the GrcenbaOkers, should at least
be as liberal as the Republicans /. c
vote their party ticket-except to
compliment Blackburn, for his noble
hcroism in behalf Of suffering hu
manity.
Tag Greenbaokers, - separate
ra-. Organization, have no strength
in Hickman and Fulton counties, ex-
oept to prevent "solid vote for
Blackburn. They eau prevent US Civ
ing 4 united vote to the old hero
nothing moro.
REMEMBER that majority of all
the votes in Kentucky must vote for
Constitutional Convention, or it cam
not be called. Don't fail to vote for
the convention. If your vote is not
given pro or con it is counted against
the proposition.
DR. BLACKBURN didn't ask if
sick man was democrat, republican,
greenbacker, white or black, bat mins
istered to all at the risk of Lis own
life. Is it anything but right bow for
the people to return the favor, by wav
ing politics, and giving him united
vote.
The most conspicuous Republican in
the history of this District is John
Bolinger. This same John Bolinger
is the man eDgs,zsxin travelling over
this section ssuizing Greenback I
clubs. Is he doing it because he /
hates the Democrats or because he /
loves the Republicans?
WHEN Dr. Blackburn came int 0 .
this county last year, he didn't inquire
the politics of any One-but ministers /
ed to all alike. TIE Republicans of
this county. without exception we hear
propose to meet him on the same mag
nsnimous view. and will vote for him
"solid" next Monday. Can't the
Greenbackers act equally as maguani-
nous.
THE Greenbacksrs are inconsistent |
in their appeal against "partyism." 10
this county all the leading Republic !
cans have announced their intention of /
waving party 10 order to vote for
blackburn" and yet we are told that
the Greenbaekers viii vote against the /
old phiianihropistl If so, are they |
not holding MOI eoaciouoly to party
ism than tie Republicans.
THERE Is no doubling but that the
Greenback movement in Kentucky is
10 the interest of the Republican party |
Nine out of every ten-yea, ninety |
niue out of every hundred, are men
who have been heretofore voting with
the Democrats. The Republican man
ayers are sharp enough to work the |
movement go as to weaken the Demo
Gratis, and therein strengthen them
selves !
TIE Turner expJsure in Congress
ought to show any Greenb hacker in this
county that the Greenback movement
is being engineered By the republicans.
II is SO piaiu that any vue not blinded |
by hate toward the Democrats ought
to see it. We beg those Greenbackers
who at heart prefer the Democrats to
the Republicans, to pause and think.
10 one year the cloven foot will be as
plain as the MONDAY sun.
The men of this county who have
goue of into tie Greenback movement
are as clever gentlemen as any, and it
they honestly hate the Democracy and !
prefer the success of the Republican /
party, we make no fault with them
but if they honestly prefer the success
of the Democracy, we beg them to get
out Of these clubs. The movement 10
