A DESPERATE BREAK.

A DESPERATE BREAK.
There is positive, reliable information
that Governor Culom who is one Of the
Republican candidates before the next leg
islature, for the senate, to succeed David
Davis, is nov making desperate efforts to
procure the election Of such candidates
to the next legislature as will
give him their voices aud influence
AS governor of the state he has control
of large force Of Office holders who will
work for him early and late, TO the neglect
of their own and the states affairs. But in
addition to this ii is now known that IN
nearly every district in the state he will
have his emisssrics day or two before the
election, who are instructed to trade
votes on anything for members of the
general assembly Cullum recognizes the
fact that if he would win in the race for
the senate, he must use vigorous mea urGs,
and he has instructed his agents to "sacr-
fee state, congressional and county tickets
in order to win the legislature. for himself.
Democrats should therefore be on their
guard. The race for senator lies now viz
tually between CullOm and Democrat. If
the Democrats are wise and awake to their
own interests, DAVIS successor will be one
of their own political faith, But in 1der
to accomplish this every Democratic candi-
date for the legislature must receive the
full vote of his party; there must be no
"plumping" in this district but full vote
and an" even division. If this is not the
case one of the Democratic candidates in
this district may be defeated and such de,
feat may result in the defeat of Demo
cratic candidate for the United States
senate in the next Legislature.
That there is no necessity whatever Tor
"plumping' in order to save one or the 9th
er of the Democratic candidates in this
senatorial district, is sufficiently guaranteed
by the live Democratic majority of nine
hundred and seven which stands forth from
the vote of 1880. That the Democracy has
success within its reach, almost within its
grasp, is admitted even by we'll posted Re
publicans. The Domocfacy is harmonious
everywhere the tickets of the party in
every part of the state have the undivided
support Of all the voters of the Democratic
faith; the central committee is active, is
operating the political machinery of the
party ably aud energetcally aud eGectua-
ly, and if the voters will do their duty as
they see it plainly before them success is
ours in every department of the state and
federal governments
Perhaps no better proof Of the certainty
of Democratic success under wise manage
ment could be asked than the nervous anx
iety Of the Republican managers of the
campaign, We will say nothing about the
discourageug reports Of Republican cor
respondents in Republican counties, writing
to Republican papers. The following letter
received here a short time ago by
gentleman who is not. quite SO good a
Republican ~ he once was, will prove
enough
HEADQUARTERS OF
REPUBLICAN STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE
GRAND Pacific HOTEL,
CHICAGO, Oct. |, 1882.
DEAR SIR Success at the ensuing cleo
ton depends largely on the personal efforts
OF active Republicans, and, knowing your
devotion to the party IN the past, appeal
to you with confidence and ask you to
contribute az far as you can to the success
OF tie straight Republican ticket. Person
al work is needed, and trust you will see
to it that all Republican voters are out on
election day. Truly yours,

Democrats must now take advantage Of
the discontinue of their opponents and
meet the desperate means to be employed
by Cullom and his emissaries with full
vote and firm stand for all their candi-
