auence and power Of mighty olgarchylit
the nature of The horde of Office holders
who DIRE preying on Uncle Saft and in turn
are bled by Hhbbel, Cooper and coterie, To

honest cause will triumph and break down
the Iortification of dishonst cause, though
il receives numerous set backs. The time
is now propitious for the triumph Of honesty
in our politics. all that is required is lnstan-
tsneous, close and compact organization and
work. Attack the entrenchcd enemy with
62edness of purpose is the Democratic
battle cry, and fpursued with the devotion
of great cause, the purity of American
politics will once again be successful.

High taxes, big corruption fdhd Shame
less e&ttayagahte and Boss Rule; are the
great and glorious principles for which the
God and morality party is making death
struggle. Shades of the pure Lincoln, the
great and honest Sumner, arise and see

There is considerable talk of ofrtinnnt
an Independent Republican ticket in thi.
county. We believe this to bc the part o
wisdom, with those who are waging an un
compromising battle against "Boss" doini
nation. The legislative field should, ii
particular, be looked after, ard for this po
silion, as against any Cameron man, We
are authorized TO say that Mr.. Henry Mert2
the courageous aud fearless leader of tn,
independents in the lower end is willing l.
make the race. Mr.. Mertz is a fitting man
life long Republican, and person win
puts force and vim into contest. He is de
sirous Of speeding anti bossisffij aud beini
imbued with this spirit, would deein it hi
duty, if called upon, to lead the fndepen
dents against Cameronian tools. With an
other independent, like Merits, for Asseinb
lS, there would be little chance for Gamer
on's representatives.
