Before our next issue the great 20
litical contest will be ended and every
thing points to republican success. l
is not at ali likely that the democrac,
will carry single northern state, ant
while these glorious successes are 90
ing on in other states. every republican
in .Adair county is expected to do hi.
duty. Remember that the republican
ticket is an exceptionally good one
made up Of men in whom their neigh.
bors have confidence, and men that
no man need be ashamed to vote for.
And don't forget to remember that
when a man asks you to vote for one
OF the opposition, because he is good
man, that you can truthfully answer
that our candidate who is opposed to
him is fully his equalifnot his superior
and republican, consequently entitled
to your vote. There is nothing to be
made by voting for any democrat, or
independent in opposition to his re-
publican opponent. And now is the
time for every young man who casts
his first vote on Tuesday next to show
his wisdom by casting that vote upon
the side Of law and order, for a party
that has a history to be proud Of, and
and not for the party that is ashamed
Of its history, to cast that vote for Jas.
A. Garfield and the whole republican
ticket, to cast that vote upon the win
ming side. 1t will be something to be
proud of in years to come. Now is the
time to take your stand with the grand
old republican party, and not with the
defunct and disgraced democracy.
Vote the republican ticket.

about political prospects in his state,
and said:
