10 aid in crushing the rebellion, the ludg-
ment of history is that the republican party
was right, ard the democratic party, wrong.
The republicans favored and the democrats
opposed the emancipation proclamation.
Is there any doubt that the republicans are
right and the democrats blindly wrong
Even as late as 1874 the democrats in ma
tional convention resolved that the war
against rebellion was failure, and that ne
gotiations for peace ought to be inaugurated.
Is there any patriotic democrat that recalls
this record Of his party with pleasure? or who
fails To thank God that the republic an party
was victorious in that campaign of 1864:
What democrat to-day cares 10 recall the
opposition of the democratic party TO the re-
publican propositions TO amend the constitu-
tion so as 10 abolish slavery, and incorpo-
rate guarantees of equal rights:
Who doubts the wisdom of the republican
party in insisting on maintaining the national
credit and resuming specie payments?
What a splendid record for the republican
party. II is a record of achievements never
paralleled by any other political organization
in this county.
But the republican party rests not on its
past record although il has right TO point TO
this as evidence of its ability and disposition
TO meet the issues of the present aud OF the

Take care of the home vote. Occasion
ally we find men who can tell US all about
the vote in other States, but when they
are asked about the vote of their own
town or school district they are entirely
ignorant how their neighbors are going to
vote, or what party will have a majority
in town. This is deporable. He is poor
politician who does not know about the
home vote. Political knowledge begins
right there, and political success comes
from work right down among the people
at their homes.

About the most senseless warfare against

Few Reasons why the Augusta. Maine,

Ten to One.
list. Because it is the authentic edition published
from Augusta. the home of Blaine, and has had the
advantage OF Hhe most complete knowledge OF his
I'd. Because Mr. Blaine and his friends co-operat
ed wit the author and publishers in order that the
work might be most complete and correct in all
particulars
Sd Because Col Conwell is better fitted for writ
ing such a volume than any other man in America;
all his earnestness, knowledge, and ability will be
found in the volume.
4th. Because in its manufacture ii is the largest
best, and handsomest book ever published for the
price that is sold for. Let one think of work
ing for any other edition; never do for one dollar
what you can just as well receive $1,000 for you can
sell ten books of the Augusta edition where YOU
would hardly sell one of any other.
9Th. Because our volume is pictorial biography,
and illustrates the most interesting scenes in the
life of the candidate. Our volume is splendidly
illustrated
9th. Because the author has visited the scenes
of the early life OF the distinguished statesman, and is
familiar with the of the boy and YOUTH from
