sentiments on this subject, as given
in an interview with him prior to
his nomination, are i'm brief these:
81 have a great deal of sympathy
with the people Of California, and
the other Pacific states, in reference
to this subject, but it is mistake on
the part of some Congressman to
confound the immigration of the
regular Chinese to this country with
the advent Of the coolies, who may
be brought under contract aud per-
haps as slaves. We have a right to
reject all slaves. There are laws TO
prevent their importation to the
United States, just as in old times.
These laws
CAN BE MADE TO APPLY TO THE
just as stringently, or, better still to
obtain the end in view, of prevent
ing the introduction of coolie labor
to the disadvantage of the working
classes of this country. We might
make a treaty with China by which
it would be understood that slaves
or coolies were not to be landed on
our shores, but to say that any we'll
behaved, law w-sbiding person should
be kept away when desirous of COM
ing of his own free will, aside from
the coolie system, would be hard,
and contrary to the intentions Of
our institutions"
And thus goes another of the cam
paign thunderbolts that was design
ed to overthrow republican power
in the far west. California, Oregon
and Nevada will not be so swift to
transfer their political affections as
ex-senator Upton would have had
US believe the other night.

DIR. p. +. MALEY, a well-known
public man Of Cincinnati, and an
Irish American citizen has abandon
ed the democratic party and declared
himself a republican for the future.
In an interview with reporter, and
in answer to the question as to how
it came about, he replied, in Ian
guage that every Irish voter of
Platte county should consider care
fully:
at came about in just this way !:
| became convinced that any further
continuance of the power of the
Democratic party in the Nation sim
ply encourages, keeps alive, and
perpetuates the old disunion spirit
of the South. The Solid South il
Just as unfriendly to the Union to-
day as it ever was, and they seem
disposed to continue in their un-
friendliness until they obtain abso-
Lutte control. 1t is too absurd for us
to think of giving them control.
Right here in Cincinnati, where we
have expended $20,0O00O0 to build
road for them, they threaten to
take their trade away unless we vote
for them. Just as If the railroad
was not enough for them. | don't
want TO see any Solid South or any
Solid North, and until the Southern
people themselves begin to vote in
dependently and outside of the
Democratic party there will always
be Solid South and disunion. We
want to extend TO Southern people
in the North every right due them,
and we want them to extend to
Northern people the same rights"
doctor, you speak in your dis
patch of the slavery of the Irish
American people to the Democratic
party"
"Yes, and you know il as well as
| know it that the Democratic party
have claimed and used us as if they
absolutely owned us. They have
assumed to control US as if we were
so many cattle. In fact, one of the
principal occasions of my disgust
with the Democratic party is on
account of its treatment of the Irish
American people. l want to do
what can to induce my people to
break the slavish party bonds and
vote Independently, just as other
citizens do. 1t is the only way that
they can command the respect of
either party, and believe that after
the November elections you will
find the Irish vote as independent as
that of any other people" d.

The Ticket.

The republicans in making their
nominations, electoral, state, district
and county, have selectedfand nom-
mated good, reliable and competent
men. For district attorney in the
4th judicial district M. b. Reese has
been nominated for senator in the
l4rh senatorial district, NJ. X. Tur-
ner; for representative in the 5lst
district, j. c. Roberts; Ii. j. Hud-.
son for representative from Platte
county, and Joseph Rivet for county
commissioner. The presidential
electors and the state ticket We have
good reason TO believe will be tri-
umphantly elected. The gentlemen
who compose the ticket on the re-
publican side in Platte county must
be well known to the citizens of
this county and need particularly no
commendation from US.
Mr.. II. j. Hudson at one time rep
resented the people of this county
in the Ne braska Legislature, and
thus far in the present campaign, we
have not so much as even heard a
whisper against his official action
while serving in that capacity.
He has also, al different times,
served the people OF this county in
other official stations, and we yet
have to learn the first complaint
against his official acts or conduct
in any position held by him. This
record is the best guarantee to the
citizens of this county that his flu
ture official conduct will be in every
particular correct.
The friends and neighbors of Mr..
Joseph Rivet, the republican candi-
date for county commissioner, hold
him in the highest estimation, as an
honest, fair-minded and intelligent
gentleman; capable of making his
own Investigations and forming his
own conclusions. A man who is
held by his neighbors in such high
esteem, gives to his political friends
an endorsement of his character
perfectly reliable, and our word for
it, his neighbors will ;endorse his
nomination by large vote, perhaps
the largest ever given 10 a candidate
for county commi ssioner in the vi
cinity where he is best known.

Fair Play.

Gen. Grant, in one Of his short
speeches the other day in New Jer-
sey, expounded one phase of repub-
licanism in very effective manner,
and the good common sense of
northern people everywhere will
endorse the sentiments. He said:
zone of the principles of the Re-
publican party is, as understand it,
that it never asks anything for itself
that it does not grant to the opposite
party. We do not contend that,
because we are three to one in any
precinct, that the other fourth man
cannot cast his ballot as he pleases,
and have it honestly counted. That
is all we ask. All we ask is, that
our carpet-bag fellow-citizens, and
our fellow-citizens of African de-
scent, and all other classes Of people
who may please to be Republicans
shall have the privilege of going to
the polls, even though they are in
the minority. and putting in their
ballot without being injured, threat
ened, or intimidated. Cheers.l We
wish to have just the same privilege
granted to Us that we grant to the
Democrats. Then, when they can
beat us under those circumstances,
we shall believe that they have been
go purified as to be fit to govern the
country until they are turned out.
Laughter. The beauty of that
system of open ballot is that if the
Administration is not a good one
the next one will be of a different
sort. If you are going to control
elections by the use of the shotgun
and bv intimidation and assassina-
ton, then you may get in a bad
Government, and it may perpetuate
itself by simply being worse. That's
