THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE FOR PRES
TEENT
Montgomery County News.

We believe every democrat is desirous of
electing the next president Of the United
States, and very large vote of those who
have heretofore voted the republican tick
ct have grown lukewarm in the support
of nominees of that party. And if the
democrats act wisely in selecting their
standard bearer, they will select man at
their national convention who will unite
Tie democratic party in support Of the
ticket, and who will be acceptable to this
large class sofintelligent, independent vot-
ers In speaking of the man that should
be nominated, too many appear to take it
for granted that the next democratic
nominee will be elected, because amajOrity
certain TO vote for the nominee of the
the democratic party? We say no, unless
the democrats nominate man acceptable
to the opposition to the republican party,
and if so would it not be wise to nominate
him and make sure Of his election ahd put
the reins of government in his hands? We
say,we have such man in Samuel },
Tilden; Nominate him and his election is
a fixed fact. nominate some other man
and the democrats may elect him, bnt il
is no sure thing But we find many who
say that Mr. Tilden would not accept the
uomintion if rendered him; to all snch VIC
sav, Mr. Tilden is q man who loves his
country and the principles of the demo-
cratic party and though at his age he may
desire leisure and privacy, yet if called bS
