Iocan DEmocRar,c TICKER

FROM Maine 10 California ans
from the Lakes To the Gulf % Mex
co comes the news OF the enthusiastic
approval Of the Cincinnati nomina
ton. We give a number Of newspa
per and other comments on our hrs
page showing how the ticket is receiv
ed, and we could have filed dozeI
papers with extracts Of the same ma
ture. Pure and true men, on whom
the breath Of scandal never rested
the very hand Of God seems to have
pointed to Hancock and English t
lead our beloved old party to victory
For twenty-five years il has nevel
gone into campaign so full Of hope
so enthused and so confident. The
very name of Hancock inspires en-
thusiasm. Generous and heroic in
war, magn animous in peace, loving
and respecting the Constitution, pre-
ferring to see its principles carried ou'
rather THAI his own ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
the man whom nothing could intimi
date from doing that which he believ'
ed to be honest and right. he embOdies
the very ideal Of Democracy, and with
him IL can not fail TO win. There
were no carefully engineered Han
cock booms by willy politicians, no
Hancock bureaus or Hancock bar'ls,
but his nomination was the spontan.
eous outburst of wisdom and a sense
Of the eternal fitness Of things, most
gratifying TO the people. With such
pure men as Hancock and English,
the Democracy can make truly az
gressiye campaign. There can be no
charges made against them, and conse.
quently none TO answer. The great
question will be the political crime of
the age, whereby the will Of the peo-
pie was thwarted and men meyer
elected foisted upon the country.
This crime must and will be atoned,
and the Democracy will see that il is
done by electing Hancock and Eng
lish by such majority as to make a
repetition Of the frauds of 1876 an
impossibility. Let every Democrat
do his duty and success is ours with
out a persdventure.
TnE Hancock banner which created
such enthusiasm at the Cincinnati
Convention had ON one side a fine
likeness Of the General, and Oh the
other the immortal words used in his
noted order No. 40:
"1ze right u hiai BY juy, he habeas corpus,
The Liberty q he pres, he Freedom y speech,
NE noiprai rights u Isrsoas and NE right u
property shouid Be preserved"
During the taking Of the last bal
LOT this ba nner was borne to the plat
form. and when the result Of the bal
lot was announced a scene Of indis-
cribable enthusiasm followed. State
banners were torn from their places
and crowded around il, while the del
egaies almost fought among them
selves for the honor Of carrying them.
Round after round Of cheers rent the
air, and Music Hall fairly shook with
the tremendous outburst Of patriotic
emotions. II was sight lit for the
Gods, and the good feeling il engen-
dered will be felt all through the cam
paign.
THERE is no shadow Of doubt that
Hancock and English will get the 1873
electoral votes Of the South, and for
the necessary ioriy-seven more to
complete the majority OF 1855, there
are New York with 30 votes, New
Jersey with nine, Connecticut with q,
and Indiana with 10. In 1876, each
Of these went Democratic, New York
giving Tilden a majority of $4,000,
New Jersey 1000, Connecticut z, 800
md Indiana over 5000. The chances
IRE greater now that they will do as well
This year. and il We add these 50 votes
10 the 1875. they make 2Os votes or Is !
more than majority, without saying
about the doubtful States,
several Of which are sure TO 90 Dem
Dcratic. The chances are all in our
favor, Hancock a-doodle doc.
HIS FRADULEEcY, Rutherford b.
Hayes, Is whistling to keep his eour-
lge up. lie says that the great en-
.husiasm over Hancock's nomination {
will die out before the election, and !
hat the doubtful States will all .
