canvass of few of the large manufac-
turing establishments and talks with leading
dealers in various trades show that a most
significant change has been made among Dem
Ocrats by the agitation OF the tariff question.
Manufacturers have worked earnestly in eff
forts to convince their employees that the III
terests of both demand the retention in power
of the Republican party, aud the re-
suits Of some of these efforts are shown
in the statements given below. The
facts which have been collected make an
array which will encourage thinking men.
They show that the questions of Protection
and Prosperity are affecting the present can
vass TO an extent not generally suspected; and
give good reasons to hope and believe that
the "silent vote " is to be brought out in the
Republican interest with greater effect than
for many years. Evidence was found that the
Republicans who voted for Mr.. Tilden were
back again In the party, and that many Demo-
Gratis were subscribing to the Republican cam
paign fund, and would vote the Republican
ticket.
