DANGER OF ELECTING A
REPUBLICAN IN THIS
DISTRICT
Congress 3fuy be Demo
cratic by One
Shall vre Lee Tlirougli 3Icre
ly Perfteial Bickering I
We repeat to oar Democratic friends
that the danger of sending a Republican
representative to Congress from this Dis
trict is very great and it will not do to
evade responsibility in the matter Dem
ocrats must combine on the strongest man
and elect him Who shall it be Ptiducak
News
The Netct argues very vehemently that
there is a real danger of the election of a
Kepublican to Congress in this District
over Tice and Turner and in this view it
it is supported by the Clinton Democrat
and Mayfield Monitor The Courier has
sever shared such Apprehension but has
at all times admitted the possibility of such
a result Often times such cries ere mere
ly sensational intended to give some par
ticular candidate an advantage and in
the past when vre looked at the 18000
Democratic voters in this District and
knew the Republicans had never voted
exceeding G000 vrc were not aroused to
any great alarm We are too good a Dem
ocrat however to want to take any chance
whatever in this District when the result
can be made certain This is a year of
surprises and we dont know what may
happen The Republicans expected to
carry Maine by 15000 and lost it and
the Democrats expected to carry Indiana
by 10000 to 20000 and lost One thing
we do know and that is that it will be
close clipping as to whether the next
Congress of the United States will be
Democratic or Republican We seo that
the Repnblicans have gained 5 members
in Ohio and 1 in Indiana which cuts the
present Democratic majority in Congress
down to 9 or 10 It is possible from Dem
ocratic dissensions existing in Tennessee
Virginia and perhaps oth cr Districts that
this bare majority may be still further
reduced at next Tuesday s election We
hope not and believe not but how would
the 18000 Democrats of this District feel
if through merely personal bickerings a
Republican with 6000 or 7000 votes
elides in to represent them The apathy
which we know to exist with Democrats
xto speakings no meetings no efforts of
any kind to work up an interest leads us
to the conclusion that there will be a very
small Democratic vole polled If any
thing like a full Democratic vote is poll
ed why both Tice and Turner can lead
the Republican by handsome majorities
But the ftar of a small vote and the vast
importance of holding our present bare
m jority in Congress causes the fear that
the alarm sounded by the News may not
be altogether sensational Our majority
In Congress is now whittled down so
small that the Iosb of one or two members
may give the next Houso to the Republi
cans and the control of Congress is more
important in effect upon the interest aof
the people than the control of the Preai
dency In this peril if there bo any
peril in this District we find ourselves
vrilh two Democratic candidates neither
the nominee of a convention or primary
election and in this emergency the Nets
claiming to act solely in the interest of
Danoeraey says Democrats must com
bine on the strongest man and elect him
Who shall it be1
We have tried to view this incition im
partially and if we have a prejudice in
the natter we aro not aware- of it -3
answer solely in the interest of the De
mocracy and without a shade of personal
favoritism is our aim and to this end we
have sought information Here is tha re
sult and we ask each Democrat who hon
estly prefers the election of either of the
present candidates over a Republican to
answer if we dont give act To those
whose personal likes or dislikes are so strong
that they are willing to lake the cluinces
sb te electing a Republican of course they
will have no weight
1st Turner has made three races in this
District and in our mixing we have never
found a man who voted for him in 1874
187C or lfaTB who is not for him iu this
race
Have you
Thisindicates that his old vote is stick
ing to him solidly In 187G he received
7518 vsic his rule in 1871 vc havut
got hut Boone only beat him 09 and in I JXT TUESDAY
187S he received GS78
THE COUNT FOR HANCOCK
In the nasi olectiong no inihicncescotilJ
be brought out to materially lessen or
draw votes from him In the last election
the Democratic vote was very small only
about 13000 and 0878 of his voters went
to the polls Ilsucc assuming that there
will be a small vote this ear the pre
sumption is fair that an equal number of
his old adherents will go to the polls
2J The lust election Turner carried
Ballard by 835 Calloway 275 Marshall
441 Trigg 709 and Gravosby 424 Our
information from Ballard from a promi
nent Democrat formerly opposed lo Tur
ner is that Turner will carry that county
this year by from 1200 lo 1300 a gain of
800 or 400 Two others entitled to good
opinions any he will gain in Marshall
Calloway and Trigg In Graves the Pa
ducah Netet says it will be nip and tuck
while leading Turner men claim it by
anywhere from 600 to 1500 It seems to
bo conceded that McCracken county will
give Turner a majority on account of his
securing the Federal court house at Padu
cab which will be a gain as the county
has heretofore always gonilfcainst him
In Fulton and Hickman 3Hesi far
minded Democrats kiHHaer will
not only hold his o I JiHHpi large
ly increase il perhaps twCo one
Caldwell usually gives about 400 Lyon
400 Crittenden 200 against Turner while
Livingston last race gave 47 majority
for Turner and in this calculation we as
sumo that Tice will carry the counties
named by about the sained
Add their respective majorities and it
brings Turner into Hickman and Fulton
1500 or 1600 ahead Therefore if every
Democrat in Fulton should vote for Tice
Turner would still lead Hence tho con
clusion is forced on us that the surest
way to beat the JTepuMican is to vote for
Turner
3rd These figures assume that Tumors
adherents in former races are sticking to
him in this one Is it so Let every
Democrat answer from his own obierva
tion and not let somo enthusiast on the
one side or the other answer Certainly
if Fulton and Hickman arc a sample of
other portions of the District thoy arc not
only sticking to him but makiug some
gains
4th Turners friends claim that he has
made gains because he has made an able
and efficient member of Congress and
because it has always been tho custom in
this District to endorse a member when ho
has made a good member This is a plaus
ible presumption
5th All the early months of this race
Turner was the only candidate a
apparently conceded him Tice came
on tho track late loo late for the Democ
racy to organize through a convention or
primary election Hi came on too late
for the Democratic committee practically
to intervene and hence we presume thoy
have taken no steps and to this extent
Tice is responsible for the Democracy
being caught without a remedy for the
muddle
6th All parlies Tice men as well as
Turner men conceding Ticos ability
aree that he is lacking in that personal
magnetism individual acquaintanceship
and public identity with the people of
the District to excite as warm and en
thusiastic support as existed against Tur
ner in his former races
Lastly We have no other words than
those of compliment and admiration for
Col Tice He is an able man and we
believe a good Democrat The Courier
has never opposed a nominee of its party
and probably never will If Tice seeing
the dilemna in which his party is caught
partly by his lato candidacy will mag
nanimously withdraw for the sake of his
party and announce himself a candidate
two years hence he would fasten Demo
cratic affections upon himself For our
part we could cheerfully support him as
the nominee of the party We answer the
lo question as who is the strongest man
because unbiased facts force the conclu
sion in favor of Turner and because the
News and others think there is imminent
peril of a Republican being elected in
this District

No

The old politicians aud newspapers
have been completely adrift iu their
calculations as to results The simple
truth is that the wi est dout know
how this or that closely contested State
is going until the voles are polled and
counted It may be that a solid North
may confront Hancock and it may be
that the great Slates ol Pennsylvania
Illinois Indiana and New Hampshire
may wheel into the Hncock column

Hancock has a fair prospect Let our

Indiana out of the couut whore the
Democrats are still confident
The Democrats of Indiana are now
betting eveu that the State will go for
Hancock
An Indianapolis letter in the Courier

About 13500 votes knocked down to

Hon Thos A Hendricks was elect

HANCOCK HIMSELF SAY8
I have not thought of being de
spondent said Geu Hancock yester
day to an interviewer The declaration
is worthy of a man confident of de
serving success Let Democrats every
where be influenced by the faith aud
determination of their glorious leader
From the Rochester Union N Y
The one danger that threatens Dem

of New York are certain for Hancock
And his election is certain Last year

doubt
HOW IT IS IN MAINE
The Portland Maine Argus says
To suppose that the millions of
men who have enlisted under Hancock
will be dispirited or discouraged be
cause the skirmish Hue has been driv
eu in at a single point is to suppose
an impossibility It rather puts in to
them the energy and determination
that is invincible and thry will push
on the conquering coluinu to certaiu
and complete triumph on the 2d of
November nest

will carry New York and New Jersey

CALIFORNIA AND NEVADA SAFE

the principal issue aud on this the
Democrats are makiug their fight He
has been iu Nevada too and expresses
himself as very much encouraged with
the Democratic prospects there He
savs that Mr Fair is making a deter
mined fight and will carry the State
Legislature
FOR HANCOCK SURE
From the Philadelphia Times
It is useless to add what everybody
knows that this perfect uuiou of the
lately warring factious not only as
sures Now York City a Democratic
government but makes it as sure as
auything in the future that can be that
the electoral votes of the State of New
York will be giveu to 7ancouk aud
English It also increases the proba
ability that tho Stales of the metro
politau group New Jersey and Con

for the healiug of Democratic disseu
sious iu every other State
CONNECTICUT DEMOCRACY

i what he said to a reporter of the
livening sprKss l regard General
Hancock ai much stronger than the
paity everywhere tie is stronger than
tho Democratic State ticket was in In
diana stronger than any Coagression
al or couuty ticket ua I heiiiive
that he will poll 10000 more votes iu
Indiana iu November than were given
to the Dornocratie Slate ticket there
last Tuesday The confidence of the
publie in him perfect Everything1
that he has said or written since hi
nomination has struck the public mind
with great favor I never knew a cau
didate for the Presidency to struugth
en himself so much His election is
not only still possible but highly
probable A determined effort on the
part of the Democracy is all that is
uecessary
Remember Democrats that New
York New Jersey and Connecticut
win or New York New Jersey aud
votes from Maine Indiana or from
any of the doubtful States will win
Turner In Jrltleitlcu Motility
Cor Courier Journal Oct 22d
In conclusion I will say that I have
not indorsed Col Turner in uftny of
his political acts in this districtWiut
the faots at present aro these Afljfas
fought for what he considereflH be
right without changing bisBLC
ten years has goue before tho people
during that lime advocating the same
principles He fought the entire press
of the district and the most of the
politicians His views have been ac
cepted by a majority of Democrats of
tho district He has worked his way
to Congress as a Democrat While
there he has made a record that a large
majority of Democrats indorse and to
day stands as the recognized staudard
bearer ol Democracy in this Congres
eiunal district This fact every honest
voter must admit Takiug this view
of tho matter is it not the duty of
every true Democrat to iudorse Turner
and bury all hatred and animosity that
have existed in this District betweou
Democrats It seems to me that this
is the course for true Democrats and
from all I learn in this county a large
majority of Democrats will cast their
votes for Turner and hamouy and
peaoo iu the Democratic family of this
district
The Grcenbackcrs having no candi
date will 1 am told vote almost solid
for Turner The Republicans will be
divided about ouc third of them will
support Turuer This county gave
Turner a little over 200 votes two years
ago Now he will carry the county by
a good majority No kind of doubt
but a large majority of the people of
the district are lor Turner this time

Numerous letters from Garfield weac

could not dispute its authenticity
The publication of the letter instill

Rcpiibtlcuu Desperation
From Courier Journal
The Republicans aro very much
more desperate than they were in 1870
In 187G they had a recourse Three
of the Southern States weru still trcrn
bling in the mailed hand of tho mili
tary power They oxpected to carry
and if they failed to carry still to couut
these three States which iu the oud
they did fur they had a majority iu
one house of Congress Now the ma
jority is against them in both houses
of Congress The Democrats this time
have the couut The throe Southern
States named are free They are safe
for Haucock Nothing therefore is
left tho Republicans but to buy the
floatiug vote and if that fails tu pre
cipitate the country into civil war and
trust the sectional passion of the North
to sustain a resort to arms
Hence Geu Grants reappearance
at the front
If the Republicans can elect Gar
field thoy cau elect anybody On the
sectional issue they can as easily elect
Grant in 1884 That this is the
scheme of the leaders there is not the
loast doubt The Grant poople held
aloof from Garfield until facing a de
feat he surrendered They had him
where he was bound o sign He did
sign aud the terms are Graut for the
