became necessary for Grant to say,

While Grant was Indulging In every

moved on smoothly and harmoniously,
becauso Kawllua was over present to

The republicans of Cairo, have fallen
Into the habit (and a very bad one too)
of nominating a mixed ticket, of allow
Inir democrats who have beoome demor
alized and soro-headed with their own
party to palm themselves off as con
verts to tho republican faith, and there
by secure a nomination on tho republl
ointlckot. It Is high time that the re
publicans saw through this contemptible
dodge, and put an end to it. It,
Is time that It was understood
that those democratic bolters are
as treacherous ns they are dangerous, and
woll calculated to bo tho death of tho
party whom they seek to make a tool for
tho working out of their own selfish ends,
Mon who 'desert ono party will desert

nation who can bo deneudod upon under
all circumstances. Tho mixed ticket
business has been thoroughly tried In
Cairo, and never In aslnglo Instance, has
it resulted favorably to tho party. Let
tho republicans go Into convention on
the 2d, on a strait ticket basis and light
It out on that lino A straight-out repub
