Voters Of the Third ward, we ask youto
think, act and vote for yourselves, but In
the name of liberty, we call upon you to
reflect calmly, think soberly and act
wisely In this matter. This new depart
ure cannot succeed, and we call upon all
good citizens who desire stable govern
mtnt TO heed not the syren voice of the
charming politician, whether he be
knight or alliance man, but 10 disregard
him and vote for your own interest. BY
doing this you can save your own loved
orders, which could be so reformed and
purihed as to meet your interests and ac-
complish much good. But so sure as you
allow politicians and otlice-seekers to de-
coy YOU into this fatal pitfall your orders
are doomed TO decay and dissolution.
You need not fear the Democratic
party. II was founded when the corner
stone of the republic was laid, has lived
through dangers, wars aud revolutions,
and stands to-day as
THE CHAMPION OF PURE GOVERNMENT
and republican liberty. 1t has seen the
Else and fall of many opposing parties,
and the star of It's success will shine and
the brilliant dladem of its glory viii
sparkle when the bubbles of all secret
political parties shall have exploded in
the darkness Of their birth.
Democrats will do their duty, II Is
hoped and expected, no matter what order
has stamped It's private seal upon them

expects every man TO do his duty" aud
