ance men, see to it now that you are
assessed. One of the grandest political
battles ever fought in this country will
be fought at the ballot boxes in Novem-
Der next. 1t will not only be contest
between the Republican and Democratic
parties, but 1t will be for an other pnr-
pose, that of ascertaining whether
England through free trade will be per
united to rule this country or whether
through protection it shall be govern
ment Of the American people, by the
American people and for the American
people. All good American citizens,
whether native born or uaturalzed, will
want to vote upon that important ques-
ton. We assert it and we will stick to
1t, that the man who does not want TO
be assessed and does not want to vote
has but poor conception of the high
duty and privileges OF an American
citizen.
Voters, let us tell yon plainly that
you cannot vote honestly at the next
Presidential election unless you are
assessed. There are some who vote
we are sorry TO say hundreds of them
without being assessed, hat they do so
in direct violation of law and are liable
to be arresred and punished! by the law
they violate. But we suppose we are
talking 10 honest men, men who would
not attempt 10 vote without a right to
do So To them we would say that if
they want to vote, and make no effort
to qualify for voting, the fault will be
theirs. The law kOIdscut TO you voters,
