"YoUR SIN WILL FIND YOU OUT"
True as bible. Apologize and reform
wire in and wire out 1t will he of no
avail, for, in spite of all attempts to cover
up the treason that turks beneath the sur
face, the real truth will out, sooner or later,
aud so it comes, little by little"
First, BLACKBURN, the great Boanerges
of democratic faith and democratic prin-
ciples, declares, " We do not intend to stop
until we have stricken the last vestige Of
your war legislation from the statute
book" Then HAMPTON, with his solid
south aud 13s votes for HANCOCK, responds,
Consider what LEE aud JACKSON would
do. These are the same principles for
which they fought four years. Next,
BELTzHoovER, in the uncalcuating, unso-
phistcated honesty of his heart speaks out
" loud in school by voicing the following
bit of honest truth in letter to Z. W.
CURRIDEN:
DEAR SIR: Your favor was received. /
would most cheerlully introduce and urge the
passage of bill such as you suggest but with
the present democratic house pension bills do
not have much favor 1t has become almost
impossible to get consideration Of such bill
at all, and when considered, its chance of pass
ing the house is very remote, and the rebel
general who is at the head of the pension COM
mittee in the senate is still more averse to al
lowing any such bills to pass. 1t would not
be at all probable, therefore, that tue bill will
be got through, Very truly,
+. l.. BELTZHoovER
And now LAYDERs the democratic can
ddate for governor of Indiana, finding it
impossible to remain silent longer, falls into
line, in a recent speech at Cannelton, and
uncovers in such words rs these "When
General HANCOCK is elected we will carry
the republicans got it,"
Thus you see, rs we said in the beginning,
the truth will out in spite of all the mol
lifying prescriptions Of The worldly-wise
democratic doctors to keep it from coming
out. So that while we know that LEE and
JACKSON are dead, it is quite apparent their
principles still live, and still find demo.
cratic leaders to voice them TO the public ut
large. The proof of which is plain in the
utterances hereinbefOre named. Certainly,
by this time, the most incredulous ought to
be satisfied-and more, make loyal peo-
pie begin to think and exclaim, "We will
have no more such nonsense" Rather,
let us consider what LINCOLN CHASE and
SEWARD would dom One word from
GRANT and SHERIDAN" is worth more

for the union and freedom. This was what
our soldiers laid down their lives for. The
principles of " free government" and the
right TO "a fair vote and correct count for
all the voters in every state! And so GAR
FIELD said truly, did he not, when he de-
clared the war for the union was right
everlastingly right; the war against the
"union was wrong, forever wrong"
The solid south with its 13S votes may
still cling to the corpse which has SO
dragged it down, and long for the return to
life of the principles of the lost cause for
which HAMPTON and the rest have so much
veneration; but the men of the solid north
who believe with GARFIELD that "the
"war for the union" was fright, everlast-
"ingly right" will determine from differ
ent standpoint and vote accordingly. Aud
while the future will take care of itself
they will respond: "One more vote for the
republican party will settle this hash ,
forever. Now that the battle is to be fought
over, we will make assurance doubly
sure" by voting so that the principles ol
LEE and JACKSON shall not only be
"scotched, but killed" Then, with the
complete reassertion of the principles oi
LINCOLN and CHASE and SEWARD and
STANTON and STEVENS and SUMNER and
GRANT and SHERIDAN and the rest, We
will build foundations upon which shal
rest lasting peace
