at the polls.

best government on earth. hat the best
interests of Our possessions will be sub

system of enlightened liberty. That by
retaining the territory wrested from tyr

democratic party whose political history

severally, has been a stain and reproach
upon thef fair name and fame Of Mon

against one another. and thai their cor

Independent manhood and integrity OF
this commonwealth is now exposed be-
fore all men; and we call upon all good
citizens, Of whatsoever political faith
hitherto, to join us now in scourging them
from power and in rescuing this fair city
and state from their communicating rule.
