New-York tribune., 1880-10-28

Barnum is making it impossible for an honest
man TO vote for Hancock.
Does the Democratic party really believe that 1t
can carry the country on forgery ana lesf IL 1t
does. the country Will take the couceit out of it
next tuesday.
The laboring man who will be led by forgery to
vote TO lower his own wages to the level Of those of
English workinemcn confesses himself to be rs stu
pld as the Democrats accuse him OF being.
Keen it in mind that the party which
stoops to forgery before election will stoop
to any kind of cheating to count its
candidate ID after election. The conduct of the
Democratic leaders and journals in circulating a
forged letter after spuriousness is shown beyond
question: ought to show every patriotic man that
MS dutr Is help swell Garlieds majority to so
great figure that cheating cannot wipe 1t out
What with Barnum's forged letter and Tam
many's dsrepuable local ticket the honest. decent
Democrat is going TO have hard time of 1t voting
his party ticket. 1t longer a question of par
tlsanship, but question OF honesty and patriotism
The man who votes for Hancock and TamInauy
votes put premium on rascallty ana dishonesty
IN politics.
The Democratic forgers have issued corrected
edition of their LOCUS letter, but they have not
changed the spelling. "Companys" and re-
ligeousy" still stand in all their original Demo-
cratic beauty
What has Hancock to say about forgery "
Does he think it GLORIOUS" way to elect Superb
Presidentf
The people of the United States lave decided that
they will elect for President man whose accession
will not involve a single risk, rather than man
whose accession would involve thousand RISKS.
The same choice Is presented To the voters Of
this city, VIII they vote for Mr. Grace with all the
he ttch MS a.
tor Mr. DOwd aud escape all risk Whatever IL Is
simple question. and the decision ought to be very
easy.
The American people are neither fools nor black
guards-and don't you forget II, Barnum.
Facts for stay at home voters TO consider: The
Republican majority in the Indiana Legislature,
which secures a United States Senator and will
probably give the control of the upper House OF Con
gress to the Republicans, was gained by about 300
votes Some of the majorities are as follows: Foun-
tain County elected It's Representative by 20 plural
ity. ST. Joseph and Stake by 81. Perry by IA. No
bic and Ripley Counties by 90 each. Spencer by So
while the Senator from Carroll, White and Pulaski,
comes by only Is plurality. Ii is true the State
had been 9errymandered by the Democrats 50 as to
ma ke IT all but impossible tor the Republicans TO
carry the Legislature, but the above figures show IN
a striking manner what great results often depend
upon few votes.
That profound political philosopher. Hosea Big
low, seemed TO have the present contest IN mind
when he wrote:
The old r a guy neDt Is the tier I snit3;
New ones hunt folks corns out Ike new boots.
Change les tor change Is IKE them og hotels
Where they shlfi plates ah' let yer llVe Oh smells
change which would put the Government into
the hands of forgers would be radical one. that's
q fact.
The decent Democrat VINO is proud of mis- party at
this moment, and who taxes genuine pleasure in
working aud voting with ii. would earn a very
handsome chrome bY making statement TO That
effect and swearing t. IT..
