UNIQUE ARGUMENTS IN FA-

The record of the Democratic party,
perhaps, has largely 10 do with its no.
table weakness for glittering generali-
ties, and It's corresponding aversion To-
the unpleasant details OF evidence which
the thorough logieian always brings TO
bear in terrifying himself against the
assaults Of cayileFs ant opinIGnated con
troversialists In the present canvass,
for instance, the claim of that organiza-
ton % the sutfreges of the people IS
based simply upon the assertion that the
interests OF the country demand a
Change" and in all that has been said
and written in support of this assump-
tion we have yet to see single intelli-
gent reason assigned for retiring the Re
publican party and placing in power its
political antagonists during the entire
period of the best achievements in our
national history. The Democratic party
Can point to no single act within the
pas; quarter of = century upon which it
can justly base claim to the confidence
of the people, and as men haYe no way
of judging of the future save by the past,
it is but proper that the pledges of fidel-
ity to the responsible trust which the
Democracy seeks, should be based upon
its past -fcalty, and rest upon its record.
As it has been somewhat iardy in fur
nisllng the data requisite to the work of
political conversion from Republican
error, leading opposition authority, the
New York Tribune, has kindly supple
mented the lack of Democratic enter

the great questions of the present can

ditures. rebel claims. pensions and the
treatment of Union soldiers. The re

The long agony of suspense over the
result of the election in the October
states will eliminate next Tuesday.
The next seven days will see the hardest
work that has ever been done In Ohio or
Indiana, and the final engagement in both
states will be one of the most closely
contested ever known in the history of
American politics. The Republicans
are taking nothing for granted, but it is
believed that they are doing effective
service which will tell upon the returns
in this skirmish preceding the presi-
Dental battle.

of 1868, when the Republicans carried
the state by more than y hundred thou

Republican majorities have been in di-

aroused there are big majorities for the
Republicans.

The 1873 electoral votes of the south
represent exactly 10 per cent. of the pop
ulation of the whole country, represented
by 800 electoral votes. If the north gives
the south enough electoral votes to give
her a majority, she'll make two OF three
moro states out of her territory and thus
be able to control the government in the
future without any northern assistance.
Then the vcstige-wiping will begin.
