THE REPUBLICAN PARRY AND
ITS PROMISES.

The Republican party came into
power eighteen years ago, under
peculiarly trying circumstances. In
tricate and dangerous problems were
forcing themselves upon the Amer
lean people growing out Of the
slavery question, and the princes Of
the old world who had prophcsied
that our republican form of gov
eminent would prove a failure,
thought that their prophecies were
about to be fulfilled. Our own great
statesmen entertained serious doubts
as to whether the union of States
could be preserved. The ambitious
leaders of the party in power pre-
vious to that time, had lost no OPP
portunity to indoctrinate the South
ern people with false ideas on the
subject of State sovereignty. They
held that the ties which bound
State in the Federal Union could be
severed at will, and that when
State became dissatisfied, it was at
liberty to secede. With this heresy
the Southern heart was fired, and
the election of Abraham Lincoln to
the Presidency in 1860, was made
the pretext for carrying out the
plans of the Southern leaders. To
the Republican party the American
people then entrusted the grave re-
spOnsibility of preserving the unity
of the nation. That party accepted
the high trust, and promised that
the Union should be preserved.
How it kept its promise has passed
into history.
The issue was made; the friends
of the Government on one side, the
hosts of secession and rebellion on
the other. The time for friendly
discussion had passed, The dis
putcd questions were submitted to
the arbitrament of the sword. |
War came; terrible, cruel, fratri-
cidal, civil war. Thousands and |
thousands of lives were lost, and |
billions of treasure expended. |
Fields were laid waste, populous
cities decimated and DESTROYED, and
the demon of civil war reigned in
the land. 1t became necessary to
organize and equip large armies.
How to raise money for this purpose |
became serious question, one that
perplexed the wisest heads and filled |
with fear and forebodings the
bravest hearts. To whom shall we
entrust this grave responsibility was
asked, and the people said, to the
Republican party. The trust was
accepted. a Republican Congress
passed law providing for the issu>
ance of treasury notes, known as
greenbacks, and Republican Presi-

ton by these political trimmers and

ton by these political trimmers and
INSCRIPTIONS demagogues.
The first day of January, 1872
is here, and once again the RepuD~
lican party is redeeming its prom
Uses. The Democrats told the peo-
people there was not gold enough IN
the world to resume, but the Gov"
eminent has resumed, and, there
fore, what the Democratic polltl'
clans said is untrue. They said re-
sumption was an impossibility, butwe
see now it is not. The greenback
dollar is now equal in value
with the gold dollar. The dollar
of the poor day laborer is worth as
much as the dollar of the Wall
street millionaire. The occupation
of the gold gambler is gone When
a man lays up dollar to save for
ga rainy day. when sickness or
misfortune or old age shall overtake
him, he knows that it will not de-
preciate in value, but will still be
one hundred cents. Resumption is
liked, legal fact, and a Demo
cratic Congress will not, nay, they
dare not disturb it, for they know
it would result in their political de-
struction. All the high sounding
words of Democratic politicians on
this subject, were the merest clap
trap, intended to deceive the I'M
thinking and catch votes. They
have demonstrated and will con-
tinue to demonstrate to an impair
tial world, that on this great ques-
ton, involving the material welfare
of the nation, not only now but for
generations to come, they were des-
titute of principle, time-serying,
dishonest and hypocritical. With
such an Infamous record staring
them in the face, how can they
have the efrontery to come before
the people and ask to be placed in
power? To do so requires the
cheek of Satan himself.
This retrospective view of the
past, shows with what fidelity the
Republican party has kept its
pledges in the settlement of some
of the greatest questions ever sub
mitted to the American people.
That it has made some mistakes we
are willing to admit. But taken as
a whole it has a record of which
any party might well feel proud.
And its days Of usefulness are not
ended. There is work for it to do
yet. 1t must complete the rcstora-
ton Of the Union. Until every man,
white or black, rich or poor, is free
to express his political sentiments
without restraint and in absolute
safety in every State in the Union,
there is still work for the Republi~
can party to do. There is work for
the Republican party, as long as
men arc found who advocate repu-
diation, or insist that promise to
pay dollar is a dollar. Until
honesty prevails in public life, until
free education is afforded to every |
child in the land, until all political
bitterness and strife has been healed,
until all men are free and equal as
God created them and intended |
hey should be, there is work for the
party, and it will con-
,inue to exist. And as long as men

blind prejudice, SO long will the peo-

The authorities at Ortonville were mott
fed last week of the presence in their
midst of two noted outlaws named Mobiles
and johnson, and were instructed to arrest
them. The robbers learned of the move
to arrest them, and taking advantage of
some delay, left town and started for the
Goteaus. The citizens headed by Detective
Llewellyn started in pursuit, and besieged
the 6esperadoes in a shanty on the Yellow
Banks, Dakota, but the party being poorly
armed, the outlaws escaped and compelled
a farmer to carry them off in his team
The sheriff's posse followed them and as
certained that the robbers had impressed
man named Giles into their service, and
started for the Sisseton reservation. No
thing was heard from the flying robbers
until last Thursday, when they were cap
tured by Captain Bennett, commanding the
troops at Fort Sisseton. These rascals are
members Of notorious gang of robbers
operating in Nebraska and Wyoming
They crossed the Missouri last August with
eighteen head of stolen horses, which they
since disposed of-the immediate cause of
their arrest, however, was for robbing the
Belle Creek post Office in Nebraska.

EDITOR TRIBUNE:

AAblASA 4ISlDOINEs
DEAR SIR 1t has at all times, and with
right, been regarded as q good foreboding
for peoples or community's future; that
they understand, acknowledge and patron
iZe the doings of their, in reality, good
citizens, by giving them inducements to
bring their faculties and skill in use for the
common good, while that of jealousies
born delight to suppress and tread under
feet all that lifts little above moderate
ness, with just as good right has been re-
gar6ed as a sign for stand-still or o be-
ginning to fall-back. The institutions of
this country are particularly adapted to
give ability, without being encircled by linn
its, chance to come into activity and use.
By the voting privilege the people have a
remedy TO bring these principles into prac-
tTcal execution; but by disgracing or
abusing that privilege, moderateness gets
the place that belongs to ability, and real
wOrthness is thrown aside by doubtful
ability. More than once, at different plac
es, has corruption gained ground, because
the bad elements of the people have had a
chance to make their influence of value,
and that large portion of those for the
commonwealth Jealous men fail to meet
at the polls. This can be said about the
election in general, but can also apply On
the previous elections, both of the whole
State and county in particular. Coming
events in our county indicate that we now,
more than before, shall need our most
skilled and jealous men for the most i'm
portant offices. The two offices, Auditor
and Treasurer, will particularly require
men that have experience and trust. Such
men our Republican party fortunately
have; their names are on the ticket, and it
| depends only on ourselves if they shall be
kept in their offices, or be exchanged by
new and less experienced men. Let every
man, to whom our county's welfare is Of
any consequence, meet and vote for those
men. We know what we have, but it is
uncertain what we may get. Let both par
ties have fair trial this time. Let there
be no splittickets or whiskey bot
ties around the places of election this year.
Let us tolerate such unworthy customs no
longer, but let the inspecting fraternity Oh
serve that place of voting be kept as a
place where respectable folks can go to
| and return from with honor.
Your Humble SUBSCRIBER.

There is now every reason for afiticipat-
ing the election of the Republican county
ticket. The contest over the authorship
will be sharp, but Mr.. Gri:wOld will be re-
elected by large majority for these reas-
ons. While all acknowledge Mr.. Morris
accomplishments, there is feeling that
this most important Office should remain
in the hands of man Of experience, judg-
ment, and legal ability, qualifications,
which everyone acknowledges are pos
sessed by tlfe present incumbent. A
knowledge of the law is essential, and as
Mr.. Griswold is well versed in legal knowl-
edge, and lawyer by profession, he is
better qualified for the position than the
gentleman who opposes him. The candi-
dates for Treasurer are more evenly
matched. Mr.. Larson has to battle against
feeling of soreness among the members
of his own party, for they think that as fol
years previous the Republicans had shower
ed favors uponhifn, he should have not only
supported but worked for the nominees al

died out, but while it will work against, Il

have occurred to them without our sug-
gesting it. If they are SO extremely solici-
tous for our welfare-it hurts to say it
why have they permitted this extortion to
continue until we commenced to cry and
