"A CHANGE WANTED"

That has been the Democratic cry
for nearly a quarter of a century, ever
since 1860. Every four years there
has been loud and persistent demand
for change from Republican to Dem
ocratic administration. In 1864 Hen
bricks, Vallandigham, and their asso-
ciates were frantic in their howlings
for change. They resolved that the
war which the Republicans had been
forced to maintain against Democratic
treason was a failure, and curses loud
and deep were heaped upon the head
of President Lincoln, and the country
was threatened with the liberation and
arming of the rebel prisoners in Camp
Douglass, and rebel diversion i'm Chi
cago which should spread all over Hi
nOis, and no man i'm that reasonable
body was more earnest in his denunci-
ations of loyal Republicans than this
same old copperhead, Hendricks, who
is now the tail of the lecherous Cleye-
lands kite. But the loyal people of
the country neither feared the threats
of that body of disloyal croakers for
change, nor their threats to inaugurate
a war of rebellion in Illinois, and went
right on their way to crush out treason
and restore to peace and prosperity
country cursed with the vilest, most
ineXcusable rebellion that ever existed
on earth, and have continued right on
in the same direction ever since, re-
gardless of the periodical clamors of
copperhead Hendrisks or the Buffalo
libertine.
When the people remember that i'm
1860 the Republican party took charge
of the government, they found an emp
ty treasury, or with only II copper
cents in the vaults, and national debt
of nearly $lOO,OOO,OOO, incurred in
time of profound peace by Democrat
ic administration, and drawing ~ per
cent interest. Every arsenal i'm the |
north stripped of arms and munitions
of war, which had been spirited into |
the forts and arsenals of the south by
the schemes of the rebel Democrats, |
SO numerous then i'm both branches of |
the national congress, and consented To
if not connived at by a Democratic
president. The fleet sent to foreign
seas where many months must elapsc
ere it could be brought back to be used
against the premedItated rebellion.
That the banking currency of the coun-
try was nearly worthless, the gold and
silver drained to pay the balance of
foreign trade against us, and the credit
of the nation from 10 to 20 per cent be-
low par, and that in just "a years of

PROHIBITION RALLY.

The prohibitionists met at the Opera
House last night to hear their theme
discussed. Rev. J. +. Conrad, Scrap
Iron Bill and Rev. Ii. A. Bushnell adj
dressed the meeting. Rev. Mr.. Con.
rad aimed wholly at an arraignment OF
the Republican party, which does
more to crystalize the advance
ment of the prohibition sentiment
than otherwise. If they can afford
TO do this, we fail to see it, and we fear
they will see their mistake i'm the near
future.
Scrap-Iron Bill harangued vociffer-
Olisly, and gesticulated savagely, max
ing little impression upon his hearers.
Rev. ii. A. Bushnell, spoke reasona-
bly,, fairly and moderately. His stand
was on principles alone, and while he
cannot support either of the old parties,
he used moderation enough to leave
out the scathing irony, and eccentricity
Ofthe stentorian "scrap." His remarks
elected respect and had weight with
the audience. 1t is his opinion that
this question is coming to be national
issue sooner or later, but favors reasona-
BILE means of bringing it about. We un-
derstand that among those who pledg-
ed themselves to vote for st. John,
there is but one democrat, which de-
from whence the prohibi-
ton support eminates.

Republican administration the Demo-
cratic rebellion has been squelched,
the Union restored intact, 1000, 900 of
human beings, then held as chattels,
elevated to all the rights and privileges
of citizenship, more than half the ma
tlonal debt forced upon the country by
the rebellion paid and being wiped out
at the rate of nearly 500, 100000 per
annum, the national credit maintained
and established upon solid basis and
our bonds bearing only 3 per cent in
terest are now SO eagerly sought after
that they command a premium in
many markets, a banking currency es-
tablished which is equal to gold or sill
Yer in any portion of our wide domain
and so secure that bill holders have
never lost a dollar, or ever will unless
the restoration of the Democratic par
ty, whose bitter hostility to the system
is well understood, should come into
power and in their hatred of every
thing which is conducive to the pros
perity of the general public and nation
al prosperity, when in their profound
admiration for the old traditions of the
party prior to 1860, they would doubt
less 90 back TO the old "red dog and
wild cat" currency that man required
a pocketful to purchase n dinner with
two miles from home; and when farth-
err taken into consideration the contin-
ued and unparalleled prosperity of the
country during the last "a years, during
which the wealth has increased, us
shown i'm another column in this issue,
to nearly three times the total amount
accumulated in all the previous history
of the country, they will very naturally
decline to go back to the old times OF
Democratic rule. The people are sem
sible and have no desire to exchange
the present system for the Democratic
policy under Buchanan's rule.

DESPERATE DEMOCRATS.

The desperation to which Democrats
are driven in order to carry Ohio next
week, is shown in the well authenticat-
ed reports which come from that state
of the wholesale colonization of repeat
ers. They are bound to play desper-
ate game, approaching that if Ohio is
lost next Tuesday their last hope for
electing Cleveland is gone. These "col-
onists" are being sent to Ohio from
Maryland and the District of Columbia,
as well as from Kentucky and Indiana.
The taking of Indiana from the list of
October states exposes Ohio to the dan
ger of Democratic colonization along
the entire western border, while all
the Ohio river counties are ut the same
time menaced by Kentucky. Numer-
Gus letters received at national head
quarters from Ohio Republicans during
the last three days state that not only
are the large cities overrun with stran-
gers who assert the right to vote, but
even i'm the smaller towns there is an
influx of strange men who are evident
ly prepared to help swell the Demo
cratic vote. Secretary Mcpherson
claims that he has received specific and
trustworthy information that gangs OF
Democratic repeaters are being organ
lied in Philadelphia, Baltimore, and
Washington for work in Ohio. 1t is
hoped that immediate measures will
be taken to identify every Democratic
repeater who goes into Ohio, and that
Just retribution will be melted out t.
all such. If Ohio does not give u good
Republican majority next Tuesday, the
| reason Is apparent.
