party. Where did most OF the voters
come from In that party2 You will
say from the Republican ranks.
Thanks be to the allwise God who
knows all things. we have reorganzed
and have leader who has not been
tainted with the slave driyer'styranny
who now asks you for your votes, not
that we expect TO succeed this time,
but we will form the nucleus that will
lead us 10 victory two years hence.
But II we fail 10 support the Republic
can ticket we can have no claim that
we are Republicans, but must cay
that we have not sense enough
TO know how TO vote but must ask De
Gress, o Brien, Newcomb or Quincy.
Can you say that on election day? II
not, then support the national ticket
that Is honored by having only Re
publicans as candidates for state Off
GERS below the electors names, and
not vote n ticket that In disgraced
with the name OF Jones on 1t, whe
states that he cannot vote the ticket
himself, that his friends and hench-
men propose TO force you TO vote.
Think Of 10, are you not AZ good as
Mr. Jones2 Then IL he Is too good TO
vote our national ticket with his own
the same right TO say that we are too
good to do 80. hence we will vote for
Norton 40 our choice for governor who
says that he Is proud to cast his vote
for Blaine and Logan. He was for
Blaine during the fight nc Chicago
iirst, last and all the time. Now let us
see II the advocates of Jones who were
at Chicago were in favor of Blaine
then. No, they were not, and said
boldly after his nomination that lie
never would or could be elected. Now
these are facts, for was present when
the fight was going on, ] stated TO the
| Hon. DeGress that IL did not matter
who was nominated by the convention
| the nominee would be elected. He
says Blaine can never be elected
Now he still wants TO belittle his
| honorable name in Texas by
putting ON with him on our
state ticket man who has never mem
! toned the name OF Blaine publicly
with any degree OF respect Down
/ with that class Of Republicans with a
Greenbncl1 head on, and any kind of
an Office heart In them.
Let all Republicans. OF whatsoever
color and of whatsoever CLINE they are
from, and OF all nations, who are inter
ested In the perpetuity and purity Of
! the Republican party, tn greatest and
! graudest party ever known on earth,
| vote only for state officers who are In
full accord with our national leaders,
aud the principles they advocate.
| Such are Norton, Haynes and
others, all true blue Republicans.
A word 10 the members of the state
Republican executive committee. AZ

such officers TO furnish our constituents
with Republican tickets on November
