Thm Combine TL.ket.
After hunting the woods for up
wards of two weeks the PopRtepubll
can combine succeeded in landing
in their trap a State ticket. The
tkket contains the names of several
very excellent gentlemen who would
capably 11ll their respective efclces, if
they had the remotest chance of
election if they were running on any
other ground than that which const.
tutes perhaps the meanest impulse
ot poor humanity hatred of an indivi.
dual who has well served his party
and his State -nd whose only sin in
the eyes of these gentlemen is that
he has failed to meet their peculiar
and inordinate ambittons.
Out of their foveted imaginations
these gentlemen have shaped a mon
ster and called it Foster, a monstrosi
ty and termed it Foeterism, and this,
by their own eosfession, is the sole
ti that binds them togethes, the sos.
impulse that instigates their action.
The head of the ticket is a "golibug'
of the most pronounced coinage, while
the Populist end of the combine are I
raving for free silver at 16 to 1. He
is a free trader, while the Republican
contingent of his support are high
protectionists of the deepest dye.
The bead of the ticket is a gold bug
Democrat, the Lieutenant Governor
is a 16 to 1 raving Populist, and this
utter inconsistency runs through the
whole ticket.
The combine concede this, but
reply, "To hell with your political
principle-; we recognise no bond of
union or object in politics but to
destroy Murphy J. Foster, and though i
we recognize in the Democratic can
didate for Governor an estimable and f
able and honest man, he is a friend
of Foster and therefore he, too, most
die."
Was ever there a more miserable,
little and contemptible platform de.
vised by the hate or malignity ofit
men ? As we have said before, no
State and no nation cno be carried
in a civilized country on the issue of
Shate. Poor human nature has many
mean and vicious qualities, but we
thank Heaveu it is nowhere, except I
r among savages, so debased as to see
nothing in p-olitics except hate and
vengeance. 1
A campaign of this sort was wlti. ;
~uted against Thomas Jefferson, and
yet Jefferson was President twice and
I his memory survives srehe father of
Dem,,cracy ant the ablest, wisest and
~ost single-hearted, of our early
statesmen and Presidents. Webster,
1 Calhoun and luay combined to des
r troy Andrew Jackson by just such
vicious diatribes and false statements
as the comble is now urging agatinst
Foster and the Democratic party,
t and Jackson, backed by the American
people, put under his foot the great
Set trio of statesmen and politicians
~ that ever acted in American poli-.
*tice.
j And such has always been the
I result of such campaigns as the com
cm bine, without a sangle principle in
e common acnd animated only by die
L appointed holes and a burning hate,
Sar- attempting to set up in Louisiana
a at this time.
Well and good; they will spend
their money and their time and waste
their billingsgate and be licked out of
d their boots. "Let 'er rip. '-States.
