Attention, Republicans !

To the Republicans Of MADISON Coun-
ty:
The Republican State Conventio n,
which assembled in Montgo merry on the
9th inst, adopted resolution endors-
ing the State ticket which was nomina-
ted by the Birmingham Conference,
and calling on Republicans throughout
the State to give those candidates a
hearty support.
While it is too much to expect, under
the present eieetiOn law. that the elec-
ton will be fair one, yet the Demo-
cratic party, we hope. will not resort
to the wholesome frauds of pass elec-
tions. The frauds OF August, 1880, cost
them the States of New York and In
diana in the Pre- e-idential election fol-
lowing.
Let us go to work, then, and poll our
full vote for the entire ticket, using all
possible diligence every where to pre-
vent fraud, and exposing it to the coun-
try where prevention has been i'm .possi-
BILE.
Our cause is just, and must triumph
in the end. Ii we all do Our duty, the
end is not far off.

Executive Committee.

will be interesting also to watch the grad

celestial highway, for they come nearer
together than planet and star have done
