To the Editor Of the Register.
SR:-I am not quite through with the
eloquent speech Of the present Republi-
can nominee for Congress, delivered in
1872, denouncing General Grant.
In the course Of his remarks the gen
tleman said:
"The only reason now urged by many
men for the reelection of General Grant is
that he IS the regular nominee OF the rcgu-
lar Republican party
Mr.. Hubbard regarded the regular
nomination of the regular Republican
party in 1872 as giving 10 valid claim 10
General Grant to the votes of the mem
bers of the Republican party.
Party ties were then but ropes of
sand" to this aspiring statesman. They
were TO be repudiated and disregarded.
What are his present views as to his
claim upon the Suffragcs Of the Repub-
licanS of this district by reason Of his
being 1.-THE regular nominee Of the regu-
lar Republican party?"
Republican soldiers, do you think Mr..
Hubbard, after his disregard OF party
nominations and party ties, has any
claims to your votes because hc has Sc
cured party nomination?
