HOuk's Speech.

Hon. L. G. Houk addressed q large
and attentive audience at this place
on last Wednesday. He vss listened
to with the most marked attention.
His speech was teplete with argument,
and delivered in the most impressive
and convincing style. He handled
the Democracy with his gloves off,
and described in the richest style of
oratory the corruption, inconsistent
.cies, and hypocritical attitudes that
party has assumed ever since 1856.
showed the Republican party to
be bhe pioneersparty, in establishing
every prineiplensG government, that re-
aected any hon6rupon the American
people and that the Democratic party,
was a mere barrier in the wheels of
National progress,and was continual
ly endeavoring to write with the fin
gers of Republication, and i~neffaceable
history of disgrace upon our glorious
National honor.

principles for which Lee and Jack

Republicans, consider well be-
fore you cast your ballot. Remem-
Der that the peace and happiness of
our common country depends upon
the success of the Republican par
ty. Do not sanction by ballot the
dangerous spirit you fought to sup
press in arms. The election of
Bob Taylor may seal the destiny of
this Republic. The loyal people of
the North expect us to assist it in
the overthrow of Democracy. Are
you ready to absolve your fidelity
to Republican institutions and to
proclaim allegiance to the party of

knowledge that the war was a fail

We should not think so. Then
to the front. Make one more effort
in favor Ola free government and
the country is safe. Then let us
rally to Our standard in the coming
contest and bury Bob Taylor and
the Rebel Democracy in the same
grave, there to "sleep the sleep that,

alton of the famous history of the

those prescribed by law, or who in
terriers in any manner with any -ofi-
Ger of an election in the discharge of
his duty, shall be punished as proyi-
ded in section fifty-fve hundred and
twenty-nine.
The determination to repeal the
above law caused the extra session of
Congress, and Mr.. Taylor voted for "A
bill repeating said laws and voted to
pass said bill over the veto of the
President.
Mai. Pettibone showed the great
necessity of such a law, and gave the
reasons why Democrats desired its
repeal. He also read the law in ref
erence to appointing supervisors of
elections. These laws are in the way
of successfully practicing frauds in
New York and the great cities. He
showed that Mr.. Taylor hadl his
great speech on reduclngnthe
special tax from twenty-five. to five.
dollars in leaf-tobacco, published af-
ter the bill was passed and that said
speech was never delivered by him
7(1'aylor.) He charged Mr.. Taylor
to a who he was for, for President,
Garfield or Hancock. Mr.. Taylor was
as mum as an oyster. Mr.. Taylor
said that he had no objection to Gen.
Garfield that he was a good man, and
that Gen. Hancock was a brave I'm,
ion General. hat Hancock hurled
Longstreet from the heights of Get
tysburg and saved! Pennsylvania, and
the Union, and l reckon Hancock can
take care of himself now. | will take
care of you. Major. Major Pettibone
read from a Democratic paper which
says that any person who opposes
any one for office from the fact that
he is from another State is contempt
ible. But Mr.. Taylor called Major, a
carpet bogyar and Mchi3on1er.. Maj
Pettibone made a telling speech, pinned
Nj. Taylor to the wall on every
point. He read a letter from Gen.
Joe Cooper which stated that soon
after the consolidation of the LIST and
I'd collecting districts that Mr.. Tay-
lor and Daniel Ellis applied for posi-
lions in the revenue department.
Mr.. Tay Tor, talks fuently but has
no coat of mail which is able to save
him from the arrows pointed with
sound Republican doctrine thrown
from Pettibone's bow string by the
power Of logic. Mr.. Taylor is afraid
Of the old Democratic shields. He is
afraid of the armor Of State sover-
eighty, and denouEces it. He is
afraid to acknowledge that he is for
Hancock. He is afraid to discuss the
political issues as between the Demo-
cratic and Republican party, and
therefore will not belong to either
party, and is trying to catch enough
Republican votes to elect him, by
using the persuasive powers of his
eloquence to win d~isaffected Repabli-
cans. He tries to ous the preju-
dices Of the people against Maj. Petti-
bone because he is from the great
State of Ohio. He calls him a Mich
agander because the Major is a gradu-
ate from that grand school. the Uni
versity Of Michigan. The Republi
cans of Carter say that they will roll
up a majority Of 700 for Maj. Petit
bone. :
Stony Creek is solid. Onward to

STATE PRIMER.

Through the medium of the leading ex-
changes Of Kansas the Iriinas observes that
Hon. L. Dwight Thachcr i, being urged very
strongly by the press and people of nearly
ever, section for the flee of State Printer.
And as far rs casual notice has gone. no ap-
prcciable opposition 90 this suggestion has
shown itself. The election OF Mr.. Thacher
to this lucrative position under the patronage
OF a Commonwealth he has long uncom-
plaininyly and unselfishly served would be
very gratifying 10 the many Kansas people in
Colorado. There Is no public man in our
sister state whose services for her people and
their educational and political advancement
have been so freely given and SO poorly re-
Quilted. Since the time when the torches OF
the slavc-huniing first flashed on its eastern
borders; through its bloody baptism, its
strifes. It's wars, lis plaques and its famines.
Dwight Thacher has stood in the front, bat
Ting fer truth, justice. and the home Of his
adoption. His pen has never wearied. his
voice has never faltcrej. when either were
of aid to Kansas. As an orator he has few
equals in the West, and his eloquence has
for years been the inspiration Of political
campaigns in his State. As \ writer no man
on the Kansas press can question his superb
ority. and his expressions have sounded the
keynote Of every party issue for years His
character is without reproach, his life with
out blemish. During thirty years OF poiit-
ical service, empty and prc6,less honcrs have
been his only reward. In behalf Of kansans
in Colorado, the 7isasas expresses the SIM
cere hope that Mr.. Thachcr may be selected.
