Forward, Not Backward.

The Democrats of this state are banking largely on Republican disaffection, due to disappointments growing out of postoffice and other appointments, which has always given more or less trouble to the party in power. That there are at this time a few Republicans who are disposed to complain of the treatment accorded them by officials from whom they expected better things, it is folly to deny, but these men are not going to give much aid to the common enemy, but will when the time comes be found with their shoulder to the wheel of the Republican wagon, pushing it forward, not backward.—Tipton Advocate.
