MIR. CORNELIUS AULTMAN.
Another Business Scare" Letter
From Him.

EIUIl ulIlAS
Mr. Cornelius Aultman has letter in
the Rep. of Friday evening, in answer tC
an invitation from some Mansfield par
ties, inviting him ito speak to business
and laboring men" of that place.
He declines the honor, but writes 9
letter, about as full of misstatements and
false statements and impudent, reckless
assertions as Tom Saxton himself, or any
such presumptuous fellow could dictate
and sign,
He says: "My convictions of the i'm
'portance of a Republican victory this
"year are very strong and earnest
"I can see nothing but disaster to the
"business Of the country from any other
"result."
In 1872, when Grant and Greeley were
candidates, the Republican leaders howl
ed the same stuff, and Grant was elect.
ed. Mr.. Aultman saw no disaster il
Grant were reelected, but it came, never
theless, as Mr.. Aultman we'll knows.
Business panic and prostration, ruin
and bankruptcy, followed Grants elec-
ton, under Republican rule Remem-
ber that, Mr.. Aultman Don't forget it,
Mr.. Aultman So, fear not Hancock g
election. Rather fear the election of the
1929 man, who has been in Congress the
alder and abettor of every swindling
scheme, and at the same time free ira.

honored with membership in the Cob

and good credit depends upon good business.
Be careful to get the cart behind the
horse not before.

manufacturer, not designing monopoly,
should see his interests" in just laws

man, did not you feel the panic and bust.
ness prostration few years since2 Do
you not know that disastrous period was
brought on by the evil, devouring, infa-
nous policy of your party2 Your party
deprecated the paper money, and thus
piled up double the Public Debt. Your
party changed the 5 20 bonds, and made
them payable in coin; and then, by a
sneaking steal, as it were, demonetized
silver, and Garfield was in the villainous
plot; yOur party sought to withdraw the
greenbaCks from circulation, and were
only prevented from 80 doing by the
Democrats.
But you may have favored that scheme
yourself, Mr.. Aultman. Al all events,
by these and other doings, increased ex.
extravaganza and corruption,
your party, Mr., Aultman, brought on
the panic and business prostration and
ruin These, Mr. Aultman, are facts of
history
I'VE must Judge of their future By what
hey haze done IN the past" That is the
rule, Mr.. Aultman, by which the people
udge the Republican party. They are
,ired of INSTRUMENTATION; were four
years ago when they gave Tilden quar-.
er of a million majority over Hayes.
They are tired of fraud party that re-
orts to everything infamous to hold
'ower, when fairly and squarely voted
'ut E! They will give Hancock an in
reased majority oyer that of Tilden.
