were given by Governor Blair In a
speech at Marshall, July 13, 1872,
AS the party has not changed a
particle since the Governor deliver
cd this severe and truthful indict-
ment, the republication of the
speech will undoubtedly have more
influence upon the minds of the
voters who are still in doubt than
anything the Governor may now
say:
From one end of our broad land
to the other, the complaint comes
up from the people that the old
Republican party has failed TO meet
the issue of the hour.
1t has cried "Let US have peace,
but it has not made peace.
1t has feebly talked of reform,
but it has not accomplished re-
form.
1t has promised the people econ
omy in administration, but has
given them wasteful extravaganza.
1t has filled the offices of the
civil service with political freeboot-
ers, and used the plumber they have
gotten from the taxation of the
people to buy for itself a new
lease of power, and it has insulted
the country by pretending in its
platform that it means to abolish
this system.
1t has 10y its chosen President
promised amnesty to the plumber
ed and impoverished South, and
has given it but partially and
grudgingly, when compelled by
public opinion. 1t has let loose up
on the south a swarm Of strangers
without character and without re-
spectability, who have collected the
most onerous taxes, large amount
of which have never been account
ed for, and for which the govern
ment has no adequate security.
1t has protected VIGOROUSLY cor
rupt officials in their offices long
after their corruptions we're made
public, and still protects them to
the great disgrace of republican
government and to the great in
jury of the people.
1t has assaulted and driven from
its fellowship the greatest and most
trusted leaders, whose records are
illustrious for honesty, ability
and fidelity, for no offense but their
sturdy independence and denuncia-
ton of corruptions and pecula-
tons.
1t has been attempted i'll time OF
peace to suspend the privilege OF
the writ of habeas corpus at the
discretion of the President, during
the elections in which he is its
candidate for reelection, thus to
unable him to use the military
power in his behalf, in spite of the
commands Of the Constitution that
the writ "shall not be suspended
except where in case of rebellion
OF invasion the public safety may
require it.
1t has attempted in the closing
hours of the late session of Con-
gress to force upon the unwilling
representatives of the people al
amendment of the so-called enforce.
ment act which would have put the
election in all the States under the
Immediately supervision of a body
of United States Supervisors, Mar
shals, and their deputies without
number, in defiance of the estab
lished usage Of the country, and
/ believe, in defiance of the Consti
tuition of the United States.
1t is endeavoring, by ever,
means in its power to belittle tn
States and reduce them to the con
dition of mere municipalities un
! der the national government, a

Hancock Wins the Field.

IRON tuTaNl s lN-la-N
My letters. visitors and eX-
changes all tell the same story,
The letters of truthful correspond
ents from the Pacific slope, the
Northern Lakes, the West and
the South are confirmed by daily
callers at my sanctum and by the
newspapers. The people are, rap
idly deciding that Hancock shall
win the field. The enthusiasm of
New England for Hancock is eX-
planned by the fact that Garfield
has put his whole party strength
in that quarter on the defensive
the enthusiasm of New York is eX-
planned by the fact that thousands
Of Republicans from that State
served under Hancock in the army
the enthusiasm Of the West and
the Pacific Coast is explained by
the fact that Hancock was born IL
Pennsylvania, and that thousands OF
Pennsvlvanians and their children
are now living in the West and
California, and remember the story
of Gettysburg; the enthusiasm o
the South for Hancock is explained
by the fact that the soldier whC
fought them so bravely in tina
heroic battle forgave them mos
magnifcently.

Republican control Of the house
the Democracy reduced the eX-
penses Of the government, exclud-
lug pensions. on al average over
s27 100000 q year Us compared

There is talk Of taking General
Garfield to Philadelphia. The
quicker his managers get their
candidate innocently laboring again
in a western reserve hay field, the

and are also powerfully suggestive.
