REPUBLICAN TICKET.
TO REPUBLICANS.

The nominees of the Republican party
in this county are the choice of major
ity of that party who expressed their
wish fairly at the convention. AS such
they are entitled to and should have the
united support of all good Republicans.
The voter who attended the primaries
and voted, by this act bound himself by
his honor to support the nominees who
would be fairly nominated: We have
yet to hear charge that the nominations
were not fairly made. We defy proof to
sustain any such charge if made. Hence
we say that those who participated in the
primary election are now honorably
bound to support the nominees. Any
other view, if acted out, would break up
the Republican organization and defeat
the party as party in all elections to
come.
We believe that the fairly expressed
vote of majority of the people should
rule the country We also believe that
the fairly expressed will of the majority
of the Republican party in this county
should be accepted by the minority as
the wish of the party. To that majority
the minority should honorably submit.
In all elections there are nominees
who, while representing the majority Of
the party, do not have the support Of all.
1t is an inevitable result of primary
election that some will feel sore. But
the majority should rule in this as in all
other affairs.
If the party has principles which com
mand your allegiance then you cannot
afford to let your personal strife or un-
friendly feelings toward part orall of the
ticket to lead you astray.
1t cannot be said that our nominees
are not Republicans. If it could there
would be an excuse for boiling. 1t can
not be said that they are dishonest or
corrupt. And it cannot be said that
they are not the nominees Of the Repub-
lican party whose wish has been fairly
expressed at the primaries.
Republicans, can You afford to bolt
Can you afford to sacrifice your standing
in the party just before the greatest con-
test in which it has ever participated,
for the sake of petty spite, or to obey the
mandate of some inferior question OF
right or wrong? Think the matter over
and give to the question an intelligent,
careful, and honest solution. Certainly
there have been few occasions when the
Republican party was more deserving
of loyal support than now. 1t is time
when Republicans who have differed from
the majority or from the party altogether,
whether on minor questions of principle
or points of policy, owe it to the country
TO stand by the Republican organ cation.

One Of the most disguised Democrats
we have struck. for many a day, was a
chap we met last Saturday evening. He
intimated in language more forcible
than elegant, that he was about tired of
helping to nominate and elect man, to

raised his hand to assist in carrying
through the balance of the ticket but
who on the contrary, was at least open
to the suspicion of giving aid and com

We would remind the Interstate that
the States never adopted the constitution
in their sovereign capacity. The people
did it with their little votes. A sOver-
eighty is something that has no political
superior. The States, individually, al
ways had a superior in point of fact, in
all affairs of government, from the time
that the declaration of independence was
made to the present hour.

As may be seen every day by the m ost
casual observer of humanity, on our
streets and highways; some walking
briskly,. talking gaily and laughing heart

health; whilst Others appear languid,
tired, disturbed, cross and unkind. He
naturally reverts to the cause of such a
difference, and finds that the latter suffer
from some lesion of the liver, kidneys or
spleen, or from some of the other inter
nal viscera, producing an indifference as
to what becomes of them; whilst the
former bloom in health, and have smile
for life's troubles by judiciously using

THE RESULT IN IOWA.

Returns received by the Republican
State Central Committee indicate that
the Republican majority on the State
ticket over both Democrat and Greens
back tickets will be at least 10000. The
chairman of the committee estimates
that it will be $4,000. This will be a
a gain of 81 900 over two years ago, and
5000 over last year. In the Fifth
Congressional District, Thompson, Re-
publican, is undoubtedly elected over
Calhoun and fusion. Legislature returns
indicate that Republicans will have a
majority on joint ballot of 60.
