REPUBLICAN, TICKET.
HANCOCK FOR PRESIDENT.

Gen. Honcock, the Democratic
candidate for President, is claimed
by some Republican politicians Ia
be the strongest man in the Demo.
cratic party. This is undoubtedly
q mistake. The Democratic party
has, perhaps as many able statesmen
in it Az the Republican, or any other
party-men, who understand well
the science of government, the Com
stitution Of United States, and Inter.
national law. Men in that party.
like Thurman and Bayard, who are OF
the first order of ability and in every
way, well qualified to represent the
party TO which they belong, in, any
political position within the gift "f
the American people-and would
command the entire vote OF the Dem.
ocra,ic party. The office of Presi
dent, is one of vast importance to
the people OF these United States.
The President il the head of the
executive department of this gov
ernmcnt. His power under and by
the Constitution is greai-this every
reading man knows. The President
should be a statesman-no man liz a
statesman without great labor. Gen.
Hancock is not n statesman, he is a
military chieftain. He graduated at
West Point in 1874. He was then
only twenty years of age, since which
time he has served in the regular
army. There never was, in ancient
or modern time, any man, however
great his intellect may have been,
who had no better opportunity to
become statesman than Gen. Han.
cock amounted to anything as.
statesman. Men are generally chosen
to ill positions Of Importance, on
account of their skill and learning.
to fill the positions. Professors in
institutions Of learning are chosen
on account of their scientific and
clasic learning-so it is with the
medical and legal Professor. etc.
Certainly the same rule will hold
good in The selection Of a Presid.n,
of the United States-which IL the
highest office in the gift of the Amer
ican people. Why should Hancock
run better than any other Democrat !?
He is Democrat aud represents the
principles without being statesman.
Tn the field "a chieftain, no iuub
he has ample ability, but as Prrsi-
dent of the United States. at the
head of tile civil government, he
would be failure. He would be
imposed OH by designing politicians,

wrctches as will hang around the

the boy ran away. Buck has fled the neighbor-
hood, and the citizens are making an investfga-
