Editor BroOkhaUen Ledger:-
| think no political campaign ever
started in better shape than this. Gin
cinnati gave US a Presidential candidate
whose name compelled harmony wher
ever there had been discord, and COM
pels hope and enthusiasm h in the
past there were doubt and indifference.
The nomination of Hancock ensues the
casting of every Democratic vote, and
wilt brl G to the party countless re-
crults from the enemy aud from that
large class Of citizens who usually take
40 interest in political affairs. La short
1t makes victory surer which with almost
my other candidate would have been
doubtful. Among the thousands nl
kilograms and letters III congratulations
received by General Htncock are MANY
from Republicans, many from old Mex
lcau aud Civil War associates, and all
such give assurance of cordial support
outside of the Democratic party. In
this city, where, perhaps, there are
more ex soldiers than in any other of
like size, many stannch Republicans
will do all that they can TO promote the
success of the man with whom they
fought.
1 am of opinion, too, that the Raids
cal ticket will have but cold support
from those who in past campaigns have
organized victory for it. There is a
great deal of apathy among the 'lead
ers." They wanted somebody besides
Garfield. They didn't want Garfield.
1t is attempted, now, to draw a paral-
lei between the present Radical position
and that of 1860, when Stewards sup-
porters worked ardently for Lincoln.
Radical papers would have us believe
Grants friends and Blaine's friends will
work with equal zeal for Garfield. They
will not. The reasons are obvious
There is now no great controlling idea
to animate the party AS there was in
1860. The sectional question on which
that campaign was fought is dead and
buried. To sulk because a favorite
was not nominated would then have
been considered treason to a cause
greater than any party question. Men

the Radicals had then a hope of victory
because of Democratic divisions, and
men work better with hope than with
out. At this time n microscope could
not show a Democratic dissension from
Maine to Texas. No, I don't believe
there will be an earnest support of Gar
field, by prominent Republicans. and I
see reasons for believing that the rank
and file will not be enthusiastic.
The first State to vote this Fall is

opposed to making any effort in that
direction. There could he no greater
mistake. The State of Maine has to-
day a majority of voters who prefer
Hancock to Garfield. and all that is
needed is to bring them out. The best
Democratic speakers should canvass
the State thor pughly prior to the cleo
ton in September. IL.
