' L FOR PRESIDENT, WINFIELD -SCOTT HANCOCK, i OF PENNSYLVANIA. . : / FOR vxcx;;;{_;csmimw, WILLIAM H. ENGLISH, o _* OF INDIANA. _ THE ELECTORAL TICKET. The electoral ticket, which we publish below, is correct in every particu)a‘r.r Every democratic voter ghould compare his ticket with the names as published below, There will be spurious tickets circulated by Republicans, in which the names of one or more republican electors will be inserted. Of course the head of the spurious ticket will be all right, ‘and it will be a well executed counterfeit, calculated to deceive even careful men. We hope every Democrat will constitute himself a committee of one to look out for spurious tickets, and see ‘that nore are voted by Democrats. The fo‘.lowing is the democrati(j electo ral ticket; let every Democrat read it over until he becomes familiar with it:

GARFIELD voted totax the workingman’s cup of tea and coffee and his. school books, but voted to let in British mined coal tree of dutv. ’ —_——— e LET every Democrat stand by his colors and be ready for the great contest next 'l'uesday. There are enough Demoeratg+so carry the State for Han¢ock, zav.nclfigtO can and will be done if Democrats will come to the polls and vote. That is a plain ‘duty,. and we hope every Democrat in Noble county Wwill see the necessity of keeping up organization and making a square fight for success. , . . KERP it before the people! that the Republicans in Congress actually paid $100,000,000 of rehel claims, and that since the Democrats obtained control of Congress not one dollar has been ‘paid, THhese claims were brought up by carpet-baggers, and if the Republicans regain power will be paid. The Democrats Wi‘ll ‘never vote to pav a dollaf of them. =~ Which party can be trusted, the one thav paid 31‘00,000,000 ‘of these.claims, or theone that refuses to recognize them ? : ;

MR. S. E. CHURcH, & life-long and prominent Republican of New York City, having been invited to address a Republican meeting, declined because he is in favor of Hancock, on the ground that “no party ought to be in power in this country more than twenty years, for the seed of corruption constantly sown would surely bear fearful fruit in that time, while the party out of power would have become 80 purified by adversity that a change of President could only be for the benefit of both, and the country most. Such a change is needed now.” :

ITIS A TERRIBLE and loathsome story of murder that comes from San Francisco. A man has for some time been living in illicit intercourse with his sister-in-law, with the knowledge of his wife. There was a suitor for her hand, and it was agreed that she

should marry him. But she could not

endure the thought of parting from . her paramour. - She besought him to cut her throat, but he refused on the. ground that he could not bear to see her blood. He consented, however, to choke her to death. She sat on his lap, and he placed one hand over her mouth and grasped her

throat with the other. Throwing her ~head back on his shoulder she died like a child, and struggled but little.

In his confession the man said that at first she looked into his eyes, but kissing her, he told her to close them, which she did, and so passed away. This certainly surpasses in all its de--tails, any of the shocking murders on record, and shows a state of moral turpitude that it is almost impossible .40 believe. : ; f o

WHY HANCOCK SHOULD BE ‘ELECTED.

Gen. Sickles, of New York, who has been an especial favorite with Republican audiences since the war, made a gspeech ‘at the recent mammoth meeting of the friends of Gen. Hancock in. that city, from which we make the following -extract: “I cannot be an indifferent spectator of a Presidential canvass in which a distinguished and esteemed comrade is ramed for the highest office in the gift of the country he has so brilliantly served. No one need be_afraid to intrust the Presidency to a soldiér who fought for the Union as Hancock fought. Among all the illustrious men who have been called to the Chief Magistracy sione have more commended themselves to the favor of the pebple by a‘scrupulous adherence to the best traditions of our public life. Unused to the arts of a politician, separated by his profession from political ofganizations, and never 1 seeking office, his nomination by a vote that represented.all parts of areunited country is a pledge of fraternal feeling that will become a guaranty of peace and union in his eleetion. The wiser opinion of the day is against sectional politics. Enjoying universal tranquility and prosperity, appeals to old sectional animosities are offensiye to the good feeling and common sense of the people. New York desires cordial relations with all her sister States ; and, accepting Southern support of Hancock as a fresh bond of union the ‘solid’ support is proof of ‘solid’ loyalty. Gen. Hancock will do his duty. Politicians will not control him. Neither factions nor sections will intimidate him.. He will execute the laws of the land-—with all their safeguards and guarantees—without fear or favor. The support he receives in the South rebukes if it does not silence geograph: ical prejudices. And if the North refused its favor to one of the greatest of its commanders, the reproach of ingratitude that would rest upon us might challenge unwelcome comparisons with' our late adversaries. The North is not ungrateful. Gettysburg deserves to name z President—and Hancock impersonates Gettyshurg,”

GARFIELD voted against the Arrears of the Pension Bill, and for this many old soldiers will vote against Garfield.

Tag republican leaders will have the whole United States to look after in November, and then look out for a sweeping democratic victory in Indiana. >

-~ GARFIELD voted against the bill to restrict Chinege immigration, or importation’of Coolie slaves to compete with American labor, and yet he is ranning on a platform that professes opposition to such immigration or importation, Such is republican consistency.’ '

IT 1s EDIFYING to see what intense and new-bom zeal the Republicans are displaying in the tariff just now. Considering that Garfield is a theoretical Free Trader, that he is an honorary/member of the Cobden Club of Free Traders, that he had Free Trade pamphlets printed and ecirculated in the West, it is quite natural that the party which-supports him should condemn his convictions—proyided he 'ihas Sy, . —

- WHENEVER you run across a pretended Democrat who devotes most of his time to finding fault with democratic leaders who are working with all their power and might for democratic success, you are pretty safe' in setting that growler down as a traitor or a wolf in sheep’s clothing. The true soldier never conspires against his captain while confronting the enemy, nor at any other time, for that matter. In nine cases ouf, of ‘ten,‘ the political graowler is" 1n the service of theenemy. Almost every locality has 'its sneaks and spies. . , - .

WE commend the following from the- Columbus Columbian to such Democrats as may have been swerved from the path of duty through monetary influences: “If the republican party should be successful in the coming election, those Democrats who sold out will soon realize the fact that they sold their liberties and their political rights along with their votes. The republican party favors an Empire, in which the right of suffrage and the liberty of the people must perish. The bargain that Esau made will, in comparison, be considered a wise financial transaction by the side of a sale of a Democrat, under the present bent of the republican party.” : ,

- DURING the early part of the campaign Mr. Cowles, editor of the Cleveland Leader, asserted that General [ 4 . . Hancock’s wife was a member of the Catholic church, and made a deal of fuss about.it, The falsity of the allegation was clearly demonstrated to him, whiereupon he made the following correction: o : ; Having now a positive denial from the son of General Hancock that any of his people are Romanists, we hereby accept it, and tender to Mrs. Hancock the amende honorable for having erroneously charged her with being a Romanist.

We republish this cotrrection at this time, so as to put our democratic brethren on the alert in case some unscrupulous republican preacher should come around and repeat the lie so industriously circulated some time ago ia various parts of this county,

Ex GOVERNOR WALKER deals in a practical way with the republican cry that a change will ruin the business interests of the country, and that a tariff for revenue only will paralyze all manufacturing industries. On the first point he held the republican party responsible for the financial disasters of 1873, and declared that there was no revival of business nor return of confidence until the people commenced a change by electing a democratic House of Representatives, and continued it by a democratic Senate and a democratic President, of whom they were defrauded. As to the tariff, he showed that protection only protects the manufacturer, while the operative pays more for his goods and gets no increase of wages, while a revenue tariff is sufficient to support the Government and maintain a healthy condition of home manufactures.

SENATOR HILL remarked a few days since: “The present struggle between the republican and democratic, parties is not only fierce in character, but without precedent in its significance, and while I think the chances are with the Democracy, I also think the result by no means certain. The coalition between sectional hate, religious bigotry, and the money of the North was never more cordial, earnest or desperate than now. Factious divisions have been healed in the repuklic[zaxn partfy. The most ultra wing of the republican party is to control Garfield’s administration. The preachers have gone on the stump, and the capitalists are pouring out the funds by the million. The issue is the people and constitutionalism against dupes and absolutism. There never was a time when the democratic party was more needed or had a greater struggle on its,hands. This is no time for cowards or factionists.” ' o

“MODERN SCHOLARSHIP i 8 on the side of Free Trade.”—Garfield, April {lB5O e :

GARFIELD voted for all the land grabs, except that one giving soldiers land warrants. G

REMEMBER that the great panic of 1873 followed the election of Grant and a republican majority in Congress.

HANCOCK, the friend of the laboring man; Garfield, the friend and pliant tool of the bondholder and monopolist. Reader, which do you prefer?

VOTERS, remember that every vote cast by J. A. Gatfield in Congress, was in favor of the monopolists and against the interests of the'poor people. S

LET the Democrats of Noble county see to it that every Democra{:- votes on tho second day of November for Ilancock, and Indiana will again wheel into the democratic column.

- Up AND AT THEM all along the line, is the determination of Democrats when the great question is to be settled whether this country is to be ruled by the money sharks, wonopolists and corruptionists. -

No DEMocrRAT should lose sight of the fact that a like number of votes cast:_for the Presidential electors as were cast for Hon. Franklin Landers will insure the State for General Hancock by alarge majority.

THe DEMOCRATS of West Virginia carried the State by a gain of 8,000 votes. Jackson's plurality over Sturgiss is 15,756. Four years ago the demorratic plurality was 12,729. The repeaters did not strike West Virginia.

EvERY DEMOCRAT of Noble county should consider himself a committee of one to work ,from now until Tuesday evening for the election' of Hancock to the Presidency. No shirking of duty now. Solid work is the order of the day. : o

SAY, Bro. Stoll; of the LIGONIER BANNER: What! has become of all those Republicens you printed from week to week as having come out for Hancock? ' They musi have been & “foolin’ thee’—[Crawfordsville Journal. - o

- Not a bit of it. They are gallantly fighting for Hancock and a solid Union. Their votes will be felt provided your party does not again fill Indiana with Kentucky niggers and villainous repeaters. = ¢ o ‘ :

~ WuAT MAY be expected if Garfield Ishnuld be elécteh, if thus plainly fore‘told by the Christian Union, a paper of decided republican proclivities: “T'he only unhealthy feature in our JSinancial condition 1s the immense and increasing stdra_(}e of depreciated silver currency in our treasury vaults; and if the lepublican party carries the fall elections we may confidently expect this silver coinage to be stopped, though what will be done with the silver already coined, is not easy to foretell.”

CoL. JouN W. FORNEY is plucky, and is evidently in favor of a stiff fight till the last ballot is eounted out. This is what he said shortly after the October election: - “] have read the National Democratic Committee’s address, and it recalls with treniendous force to my mind an incident that might now profitably berecalled by all Democrats and friends of the Union fortyeight years ago, when General Jackson became a candidate for the Presidency of the United States for the second time. The oreat bank of the United-States and all of its branchés bribed newspapers and bullied the laboring people from one end of the country to,the other,; and capitalists and other monei'ed men attempted a business scare worse than that now got up by the. office-holders; and yet Jackson was triumphantly elected, and concluded his Administration in a blaze of glory. 1 was a Democratic boy at that time, and, with this knowledge and memory, I predict that history will repeat itself, and that Gea. Hancock will be elected as triumphantly as, Jackson was.” .

“ilf We Oanly Had Congress.”

“If we had Congress,” remarked one zealous Republican, “we would have plain sailing. We .would carry the doubtful States somehow, and if we didn’t carry them we could count them anyhow, and the Democrats might howl all they d-d pleased about it. But the Democrats have Congress, and thev have us just where we had them four years ago. I'm afraid that’s where we are going to fail this time.” :

Garfield as a Free Trader. [New York Herald, Ind.]

The President of the Cobden Free Trade Club, of London, England,in a recent speech, said: *“Free Trade is looking up. General Garfield, 4 candidate for President of the United States, is pledged in the interest of Free Trade. We must forward our interest by forwarding us.” ‘ '

~ WORK! WORK! WORK! There is but little time left before the great battle which is to decide the fortunes of the country for the next four years will be fought and decided. There is no time to fool away. Let us_not depend upon foreign aid to fight this battle for us. It is true muych good is frequently done by public speaking, but we are convinced that the greatest good is accomplished when each member of the party feels that success depends upon individual exertion. Every man is not an orater but every man can talk with and urge his neighbor to work for the success of a party which is of the people and for the people. The history of the democratic party while in power commended itself to the people. Under its administration the country prospered, grew rich, and was happy. There was no North and South then;: we were a united and happy family, thé North and South alike rejpicing in each other’s prosperity and happiness. Restore the old party to power again, and we will have an end to sectional strife and contention. The republican party has been in power for twenty years, and it has shown its inability to restore peace and h&ruiouy to all sections. It:-hasbeen a party of hate, and its policy has been to Keep alive an animosity and ill-feeling that it might hold on to-power by the gry of the United North against the South. f ‘ ;

. Let us organize at once for the contest. We need not be discouraged by the little majority gained over us last week. A clidngs of two or three 1n each township will wipe out that majority." Indiana is a democratic State and can be relied upon when bribery and corruption are not used to obtain yotes. Every Democrat in the county knows that the last ‘election wals' carried by mongey sent from the East to purchase votes. Lvery one who went to the polls witnessed the prodigal use of monoy to/buy up voters. - It was nrot at one precitet, but at every precinct in the county. We feel that cvery true Democrat will work: to rebuke the men who stood at the polls with their corruption money in rolls. - | Shall we ltave a fair election in November? Yes; the blood-tubs, the shoulder-hitters, and the repeaters imported into the State from the slums of ' Philadelphia, Baltimore and New York, wisl be too badly needed in those cities to be hired to make a pilgrimage to Indiana. We not only count on a fair election, but a peaceable one. “These roughs will be away and our people left free to go to the polls and deposjt their votes without fear of persunal violence. Again ‘we urge uppn the‘noble Democracy of Pulaski county and all patriots who desire the election of the brave and noble Hancoek, to work together for his election.— Winamac Democrat. : e P P— e 5

An Honest Republican Opinion.

Mr, 0.. K. A. Hufchinson, a promi-. nent republican lawyer in - Chicago, has just given -to a reporter of the T'imes several reasons wWhy he intends to support Haneock. ;| The' first is all sufticient, and here’it-'is: *“The chief reason why I intend to support the democratic ticket is that [ consider the fraud by which Mr. Tilden was counted out four years-ago' of such nature that, if it is net rebuked by the people of the country, a- great fraud and permanent injury will have been done to the institutions of the ecountry. While I have always been a Republican, and have never voted for a Democrat, excepting for a local office, I cannot help Seeing that Tilden was fairly elected; having received over a quarter of a million majority on the popular vote, and having carriéed Louisiana fairly by.a large majority. It will'not do to ‘say th;@ the intimidation and frauds on the part of lecal Democrats was cause {or setting aside the result in Louisiana, as the jndges of election there had been!appointed by the Kellogg government, aud were lequiced by law. to report aby cases of fraud or viclence which might bhave oceurred at the same time they sent in the election returns. No report of fraud in any of the local elections was made until it was found that the State had gone democratic by a large majority, and that to secure the success of . the republican party it would be necessary to set aside the result of the elec< tion in Louisiana. Jlt; now happens that the nominee-of the party whicli committed this- fraud: agdinst the American pesple was one-of the principol men engaged in the transaction, he not only lbaving ‘béen one of tlie visiting statesmen, but having had the singularly -bad taste—to express it mildly— to act as a member of the Electoral - Commission -after having been present at the- Returning Board count, and hayving his mina already made up as to how lie should vote. To now elect this man to the Presidency would be to set the séal of approbation upon the whole proceeding.”

PO i e el o e e R A Vote for Garfield 1s a Vote for Hard Times, Bankruptey and Misery, - ' (Daviess County Dpmocrat ) -

The Tariff cry raised by the Republicans is only one of the tricks of the Money Power intended to frighten the. laboring classes into voting the republican ticket, with a view to placing in control of Congress and in the Presidential chair, men who will demonetize silver, destroy greenbacks, and return to the gold standard alone. There is no doubt about this. The election of Garfield means the contraction of the currency by four hundred million s of dollars! o If the-people want to.go through the terrors and bankruptcies of another contraction period; let them listen tothe delusive cry about “Tariff” and vote for Garfield.. v .o 0 e o All the “Protection” in the world will rot save the laboring classes and the business men . from such hard times as have never been known before. . i Tt e
