T o the Republican Electors o f the State o f New Y o r k : Fellow Citizens—You arc called up on to save N ew Y o rk from a threaten ed peril. U n e x p e c ted successes else w h e re have encouraged your appo i n t s . T h e y hope th a t the apathy w h ich gave them O h io and Indiana w ill give them N e w Y o rk. I t is for you to dem o n s trate the fallacy of this hope by the efficiency and zeal w ith w h ich you enter upon the w o rk before you. O n other m em o rable occasions, w h en other States have faltered and fallen, you have plucked victory from defeat, and saved the Republic. As you have done,you can do. You have the num e ri cal strength, and it hut requires th a t th a t s trength should now bo concen trated a t the ballot-box. A full vote is the guarantee of R e publican victory. W ith such a vote now N e w Y o rk w ill still hold her proud position am o n g the Republican States of the U n ion. B u t this vote can only be secured through system a t ic effort in every county, tow n , and school d istrict in the State. A n d we appeal to you, fellow citizens, to see to it th a t this effort is made. I f it shall be, a victory as signal as a n y you have ever achieved w ill be your rew ard. Y o u r candidates deserve your suff rage. The record of their official acts dem o n strates their patriotism and fi delity. Every pledge has been scru pulously met. E v e ry obligation has been conscientiously regarded, and ev ery d u ty has been faithfully discharg ed. T h e ir personal integrity is uuim - pcached,* a n d their official robes are.un tarnished. They are recognized, even by their enemies, as honest men, com petent for the positions they have h o n orably filled, faithful to their trusts, and tru e to the people a n d to the prin ciples they represent. L e t us see to i t th a t the services of such m en are not lost to the State by indifference or neg lect. In guarding the present, the hist o ry of the past should not be forgotten. The D em o cratic party has been uni form ly reckless and prodigal in its State and M u n icipal adm inistrations, w h ile the R e p u b lican p a r ty can point w ith pride and trium p h to its official record of s trict accountability, econo m y and thrift. W h e n in pow e r, the D em o cratic party has squandered the revenues o f the State, im p a ired its credit, diverted funds sacredly pledg ed, and bankrupted the treasury by sectarian appropriations, w a steful ex penditure, and im p roper extra allow ances to its petted partisans. W h en in 1859, a Republican succeed ed a D em o cratic adm inistration in this State, the canal revenues, sacredly appropriated to the paym e n t o f the public debt, had, by the iucom p etency and dishonesty of those in pow e r, fall en to the sm all sum o f $900,000 per annum . D u ring the wise, honest, and economical a d m inistration of the canals by Republican officials, this meagre revenue reached $4,000,000 per annum ; and this prosperity continued till the canals again sank back into the hands of the Democracy. W h e n the D em o cratic A d m inistra tion passed out of p o w e r in 1872, i t left the State funds deficient in m o re than $6,000,000. W ithin tw o years after a R e p u b lican A d m inistration had assum ed the supervison o f the finances of the State this deficiency was m ade good, and the expenses o f every de partm e n t of the G o v e rnm e n t w ere re duced, a n d to-day there are m o re than $16,000,000 in the Sinking F u n d s of the State. Through the treachery and im b ecili ty o f the D e m o c ratic A d m inistration at W a shington, the country w as in volved in a civil Avar, from w h ich i t was only extricated by the w isdom , patriotism , a n d fidelity o f a Republican A d m inistration, and the valor a n d he roism of the brave men w h o m e t and conquered the enem y on the field of battle. D u ring the w a r e v e ry rebel success was hailed as a D em o cratic v icto r y ; and now every D em o cratic victory is hailed w ith ecstacy by the still ram p a n t rebel elem ent o f the Southern States. D em o cratic success in N cav Y o rk w o u ld em b o lden the K u K l u x and W h ite League secret organizations to push to s till g reater excesses their m u r derous raids upon the helpless and_ u n protected freedm en, and the patriotic w h ites o f th a t still distracted section of the U n ion. T h e peace of the w h o le country w o u ld be endangered, a n d all the benoficient fruits of the w ar w o u ld be fatally im p eriled. W ith these records fresh in our m em o ry, and w ith contem p o rary events w h ich ju s tify the m o st serious apprehensions in regard to the future, shall w e a g ain hazard the prosperity of the State and the stability o f the U n ion by restoring to pow e r the men and th e party by whose dishonesty, im po- tency and treachery these evils were brought upou us ? To do so w o u ld prove us false to our c o u n try, and u n w o rthy th e sacred tru s t transm itted to us by the fathers, whoso m em o ries we revere and whose virtues we w o u ld im itate. Fellow -citizens, we have now reach ed the hour for a c tion. Y o u r b r e th r e n in other S tates look to you Avith confi dence a n d hope. T h e y rem e m b e r y o u r tim e ly victories in the past, and antici pate an equally cheering victory now . L e t them not be disappointed. Give the few days w h ich rem a in to prepara tion. Perfect your voting lists. Se lect your v igilance com m ittees. P r o vide means to bring out your rem o te and tardy voters. W h e re the w o rk of registration is not com p leted, see to it th a t the nam e of every Republican is registered, a n d th a t all im p roperly or fraudently e n rolled nam es are ©raced. In the r u r a l districts, take care th a t no illegal vote is cast. Challenge in ev ery case of doubt. L e t no vote be lost. P u s h on the column.

Officered by D em o crats, nursed by D em o crats, and supported by money from the liquor dealers’ association, the Prohibition ticket appears in the field as the forlorn hope of the D em o cratic party and the only device th a t can save it from u tter defeat. I t is launch ed in the direct interest of Democracy, and w h ile pretending to be a tem p e r ance ticket is unpractically a Avhiskev ticket of the m o st ultra order. N o t a man in the w o rld has any idea th a t - a single nom inee of that ticket can be elected. Its mission is sim p ly and solely to “ defeat the R e publicans,” a n d give the W h iskey D e mocracy c o n trol o f o u r State legislation and a Senator a t W a shington. This is the utterm o s t success that the P rohi bition ticket can attain. Is it such a success as any sincere tem p erance m an or a n y Republican can consent to sh a r e ? Republicans, and tem p erance men, do not perm it yourselves to be taken w ith the sophistries and falsehoods w h e rew ith this last desperate effort of the enem y endeavors to capture you, and use you in defeating the very ends you desire to serve. T h e aim and ob ject of the P rohibitionists is to defeat the Republican party, the party w h ich has given us the civil dam age law and nearly every tem p erance law on our s tatute books, and to put in its place a party w h ich, having voted against all these laws, now a w a its only your assistance to repeal them. Friends, think well on it before you assist in such a deed. In view o f the fact th a t the ac tive m a n ipulators o f the P rohibition ticket are Democrats, th a t nearly every editor in the State who advocates i t is a dem o crat, and that large sum s of m o n ey have been raised by the liquor dealers and other dem o crats for the use of these P rohibition candidates and their agents, avc are led to the inevitable conclusion th a t the few sincere tem perance prohibitionists a re b eing “ sold” in a m a n n e r m o st deplorably disastcr- ous to the Tem p erance cause. T h a t the prohibition ticket is play ing directly into the hands o f the liquor dealers, none b u t those born blind can fail to see. I t is one of those crafty inventions of the evil 'one, w h erein his dupes arc m ade the executioners of them selves and friends. T h e move m e n t bears th e m a rks of D em o cratic dim es and D em o cratic craft. I t is a deep p it .into which the Tem perance cause seems likely to bo plunged by a few of its a d h e rents, from w h ich i t will take m any a long struggle to emerge. Republicans I Every enemy of tem perance in the s tate desires you to vote the P rohibition ticket. Every Dem o cratic editor helps it! W ill you be come their dupe? F o r M e m b e r o f A s s e m b ly , H a n fo r d S tru b le. Wo earnestly appeal to every R e publican to vote for M ajor Struble.— I f M ajor Struble is elected to the L e g islature not only w ill the local in ter ests e f o u r c o u n ty have a faithful and vigilant advocate, b u t th e principles of the R e p u b lican party a firm unw a v e r ing supporter. The im p o rtance of this is m ade fully apparent w h en it is considered th a t the n e x t Legislature w ill elect a U n ited States Senator to succeed R e u ben E. Fenton. I f you desire that successor to be a Republican vote for H a n ford Struble. I f you Avisli th a t successor to be a D em o crat, vote for M r. Spencer or the tem p erance stool- pigeon Bunnell. jgF\ I f the dem o c rats should obtain a m a jority in the H o u se o f R e p resenta tives they w o u ld probably elect F e r nando W o o d Speaker. lie was their choice last year, and he probably will be n e x t year. Shades o f th e great H o race 1 w h a t a spectacle th a t Avould be—a rebel sym p athizer, a politician reeking w ith corruption, a friend of row d ies a n d p lug-uglies, occupying the kighgposition o f Speaker o f the H o u se o f R e p resentatives. L e t every loyal voter in Y a te s c o u n ty be a t his post of duty on the day of election, and do w h a t h e can to prevent such a disgrace, by voting for o u r e x c e llent candidate for R e p resentative in Congress—H o n .

D ix’s m a jority....................... 866 The above figures, taken from the records, show that in 1872 twenty-seven hundred and seventy-eight (2778) of the electors inY ates county voted for J o h n A. D ix for Governor, and nineteen hundred and tw elve for Francis Kov- nan. This was the largest vote which the D em o cratic party had cast in this county for m any years, and this em braced the votes o f at least two hun dred Republicans who, in becoming liberalized, had become for the tim e Democrats. Noxv the question we put to the 2778 electors, who tw o years ago voted for Jo h n A. D ix, is this : W h a t reason e x ists w h y you should not now vote as you did then ? W h a t has J o h n A. Dix, as Governor, done or neglected to do that has caused you to regret your vote t h e n ? H as ho not in every way boon an ac ceptable G o v ernor ? He has so con ducted him self in the perform ance of his duties a9 to compel from his politi cal enemies even- a recognition of his fitness and his integrity. W ould you now vote against him because of that ? lie has resolutely refused the appeals made to him on behalf of noted crim i nals for pardon, although they came backed by the pow e r of w ealth, posi tion and historic family names, a n d has, by his firmness in resisting the appeals and influence in their behalf, m ade the crim inal laws of the State to be re spected and obeyed in a greater degree than under any adm inistration for tw e n ty years, a n d has made crim e ap pear the sam e and receive the same punishm e n t w h e ther the crim inal was pow erful or weak, rich or poor, haugh ty or hum b le. W o u ld you now vote against him because o f th a t? He has w atched carefully the legisla tion of the State, s c rutinizing each bill passed, and has fearlessly used the veto pow er to check unw ise legislation, and has resolutely put Ins hand upon and crushed out every job which has passed for the last tw o years. W o u ld you now vote against him for th a t? — but Grant ivants a third term . N o w , friend, suppose G rant don’t w a n t a third term , and no one has said he does but his enemies a n d your enemies. Or, suppose ho d o c s ; and yet Governor D ix says this (at a Republican meeting in the city of New York) : “ I say, then, distinctly, I am not in faVor of the third term . 1 proposed some time ago an am endm ent to the constitution lim iting the ^President's term to six years, and m aking him ineligible for the next s i x ; a n d until this am endm ent is made I am in favor of the rule which origin ill the patriotic breast of W a sh ington, and was held sacred by his suc cessors for three-quarters of a century, and has acquired from practice a force almost as potential as if engrafted on the c o n stitution.” W ill you vote against Jo h n A. D ix now and for this ? Wo have nothing here and at this late day in the canvass to say further about M r. Tildcn. H is record has been sufficiently exam ined, and the conse quences of his election sufficiently can vassed. B u t we make this appeal to the men who in 1872 voted for J o h n A. D ix,believing that if they carefully and candidly consider, they will vote now as then ; and wo well know , as do our enemies, that w ith the Republican vo ters at the polls and voting as in 1872 sure suQcess awaits our ticket, and with the going dow n of the sun on election day another victory for Republican principles will have been assured. O u r C a n d id a te f o r A s s e m b ly. the Republican party the people owe their unity as a W h en in the halls o f Congress and elsew h ere the financial integrity of the nation was threatened, when blinded men were crazily d e m a n d ing th a t a n ew flood of paper m oney should be o pened upon us, and the day of a return to hard money, economy a n d thrift, be in definitely postponed, the voice of J o h n A. D ix, G o v ernor of the State of Now Y o rk, was raised in opposition, and over and above the noisy clam o r of w ild men were heard his words of w a rning counsel, noble, clear and un m istakable, tim e ly and wise. W e all rem e m b e r how they cheered us, and wc all know th a t they tended more than au g h t else to p revent the w ild the ories o f m isguided inflationists from sw eeping over the land. W e were proud and satisfied w ith him then— proud th a t N e w Y o rk was governed by so able a n d fearless a m an, a n d recalled the m em o rable w ards of the sam e au thor in the dark a n d p erilous d a y o f ’61, when he electrified the hearts o f all loyal m en by his famous order, “ I f a n y one a ttem p ts to haul dow n the A m e ri can flag, shoot h im on the spot.” W o u ld you now vote against him for th a t ? Then if for none of these things, w h a t is i t in his course as G o v e rnor th a t has changed you, and for w h ich any of y o u of the 2778 o f 1872 w ill vote against J o h n A . D ix in 1874 ? A h , we are told by some th a t his course upon the tem p erance question has n o t been satisfactory, a n d for that reason the tem p erance men propose to vote a g a inst him , a n d vote for a tem perance candidate—not w ith any hope or e x p e c ta tion of electing their candi date, but with the dead certainty , i f they thereby defeat John A. Dice, that they w ilt have elected a man whose course up on the temperance question will always be satisfactory to the rum-seller. T h a t is the entertainm e n t to which the tem p erance men and Republicans are invited by a few sore-headed lead ing tem p erance fanatics. B u t reflect seriously before a n y of you who made a p a r t o f th a t 2778 vote a g a inst D ix in 1874; and rem em b er th a t in the coun sels o f the tem p erance men themselves great diversity prevails—local-option ideas a n d bills are sufficient for, some, b u t only absolute prohibition will please others, w h ile m any we think in their great indignation, given the pow er, w o u ld make the salb of liquor pun ishable w ith death. N o w w h enever a bill passes the legislature, or is about to pass, giving local-option, prohibi tionists assail i t and ask its defeat, and w h en local-option passes, prohibition appears and dem ands the slaughter of the bill. Such was the course in 1872- 73, the friends o f tem p erance w rangled am o n g them selves, few w e re satisfied w ith the bill w h ich did pass, and Gov ernor D ix has in his possession letters from m any leading tem p erance men asking him to veto th a t bill. H e did so, a n d the same men &ye to-day loud in opposition to him. Rem em b er these differences o f opinion. Rem e m b e r th a t w ith the defeat o f D ix comes into pow er the liquor-dealers’ candidate, and then ask yourself, w o u ld you vote against J o h n A. D ix for th a t ? I f nothing in his career as Governor, then perhaps, fellow citizen, you have decided to vote now against the man who was your choice tw o years ago be cause some one says G rant w a n ts a “ th ir d term .” T h is “ third-term ” bug bear the D em o cratic party should be very grateful for, a n d if its author and inventor is not re w a rded g ra^i d 1 y, then the D em o cratic party has -no soul. W ithout i t they w o u ld have been al m o st bankrupt of any political capital for the cam p aign o f ’74. Y o u voted for D ix in 1872; he has m ade a n excel lent G o v ernoy; you are glad you voted for him th e n ; you are entirely satis fied w ith his reco r d ; you have confi dence in his intelligence, h is integrity, his a b ility and his p a tr io tism ; in com m o n w ith all m en of all parties you recognize a n d adm it all this, and pro claim his em inent fitness for the place To R e p u b lic a n s . The political contest of 1874 will have been decided before another issue of the. E x p ress reaches its readers. Only a few days are left, a n d they should be devoted to hard, u n ceasing labor. O u r opponents a re active and u n scrupulous, and no labor should be spared to thw a rt them at every point. Special efforts should be p u t forth to bring every Re publican to the polls, and to im p ress upon the m inds of the w a v e ring and doubtful the im p o rtance of the coming election. It is as im p o rtant as a presi dential election. Grave issues hang on the result. I t will decide the question w h ether M orrissey and K elley are to control this State,or the people are to be further blessed w ith the wise a d m inistration of < G o v ernor D ix. I t w ill decide the question w h e ther a a Republican or a D e m o c rat is to suc ceed Senator Fenton. It w ill decide the question w h e ther the H o u se o f R epresentatives is to pass into the hands of those w h o have pro ven enemies to the Republic, or be re tained in the hands of those who have proven its strongest friends. There is no lim it to the evils which m ight result from a dem o cratic victory in this state and the election of a dem- osratic m a jority in the house of repre sentatives. “ These possible dangers should be p resented to all good citizens, and every m an w h o has the welfare of the nation at heart should be called up on to lend his aid in keeping from the R e p u b lic even the shadow of such great evils. The nation’s credit, its system of currency, its securities, its good faith as p ledged in its p u b lic meas ures, its honor a n d good nam e both at hom e and abroad, d e m a n d the retention in pow er of the party th a t has been loyal to its interests, th a t saved i t from destruction w h en assailed by dem o cratic rebels, and th a t still holds the pow er to guide it safely through the unknow n future.” The enemies of the Republican party continue to repeat the false report that Mr. Struble is “ a drinking man.” By those not acquainted w ith him this report m ay bo believed, to hi^.injury— and though his neighbors may think it superfluous in us to deny these m isrep resentations wc deem it no more than ju s t to all concerned to do so. Mr. Struble is more of a temperance man in practice than m any of the “ P rohi bitionists,” and the statem e n ts about his “ sprees” are unqualficd falsehoods. In case of his election his votes and his influence will be, as hitherto, in favor of tcm p erance^and on the side of o rder and m o rality. D u ring his service in the arm y M ajor Struble w ithstood all the severe tem p tations to drink to which officers w e re so constantly ex posed, a n d wc arc inform ed by'one of his fellow officers that during their en tire arm y experience M ajor Struble was never know n to take a drop' of liquor. In the 148th regim e n t there were m any “ tem p erance m en ”—but only three teetotallers, of whom our candidate was.onc. W e challenge the Prohibi tion ticket to produce a man of as good a record as that, or one who even shouldered a m u sket at all for his country in her tim e of trouble. W e can assure those unacquainted with Mr. Struble that his sym p athies arc w ith the Tem p erance elem ent of our people and that—unlike his com petitors for the A ssem b ly—his patriot ism is above suspicion. W c are aware that M r. Struble does not propose to notice these cam paign falsehoods concerning h im ,and we make these rem arks w ithout his consent. E F \ T h e “anything to beat G rant” D em o cratic Prohibition candidates arc using every effort to delude Republi can voters, and secure the election of men who will repeal the “A n ti L iquor laws,” and send a Dem o cratic Sena tor to W ashington. These men arc all Democrats and Liberals, (if there is anyxliffercnce,) and they have inadvertantly adm itted in private argum e n t that their special mission and purpose is to defeat the Republican party. This is w h o lly in consistent w ith any regard for tem p e r ance, for th a t p a r ty has always been the friend and ally of the Tem p erance party, b u t it is wholly in harm o n y w ith the doings o f these men, w h o are in close com m union w ith the dem o cratic managers, a n d arc no doubt the recipients of their full share of the large am o u n t of D em o cratic money which i t is know n has been distribu ted. throughout the “Prohibition” par ty. I t is scarcely creditable that men can be found to be so duped, yet we know th a t there are a few such in R e p u b li can ranks, a n d these the liquor dealers will use to their ow n ends and to the discomfiture of both tem p erance and loyal interests. The only success possible to the “ P rohibition” party is the repeal of the A n ti Liquor laws, and the turning back o f the Tem p erance dial ten years. Is there a sincere tem p erance man in our c o u n ty who wishes a share in such a w o rk as this ? H o n . E . G. L a p h a m . The prospects are that our excellent candidate for R e p resentative in Con gress will receive a rousing m a jority, but this tact should only stim u late Re publicans to do everything in their pow er to increase his vote. I t is con ceded by everybody th a t M r. Lapham is em inently qualified to well repres ent us at W ashington, that he will make a brilliant record, and that his votes w ill always be recorded bn the' right side. M any dem o crats will vote for him, a n d we shall be surprised if his m a jority does not exceed 3,000.— Vote for Lapham . E v e ry elector who does so will never have occasion to re gret it. EF**The recent arm ed uprisings in the South, accom panied by m u rders most atrocious, outrages innum erable, open rebellion and the establishm ent o f a reign of terror to intim idate un arm ed and peaceful citizens had the ♦ full sanction of the N o rthern Dem o crats, and was only one portion of a general plan to restore the old order of things. The party, which, by its pol itical heresies plunged the nation into a bloody w a r, now stands arrayed against ns on the same grounds which it occupied in 1860.

E F \ A second session of the Dem o cratic Congressional Convention was held at Canandaigua on Saturday last, for the purpose of n o m inating a repres- tativc in Congress, Judge Faulkner, of Livingston, having declined. None of the aspiring “ big guns” o f the party being desirous of e n tering the lists, de feat being certain, a com p aratively un known gentlem an—D avid A.

Som e of them arc already enlisted in its be half. W ith full respect f o r th e ir m o tives and their purposes, there is one point w h ic h we w ish specially to com m e n d to th e ir a ttention. I t ought to open th e eyes of every honest tem p e r ance m a n to the real c h a racter, object and effect of th is m o vem oni w h e n w h e n we s tate t h a t those who axe most actively pushing it carry Democratic money in their pocket. In publishing th is statem e n t wc m a k e no random assertion. W e sim p ly declare w b a t we can substantiate by evidence. T h e f a c t has com e to our knowledge in a w a y w h ich does n o t adm it of doubt or m istake. W e repeat, there are som e upright m en supporting th e so-called tem p e rance tick e t a n d we do n o t im p u g n th e ir honesty, how ever m u c h we m a y d is credit their w isdom . B u t we tell thorn th e y a rc sim p ly p la y ing into t h e bands of m e n w h o a re hired w ith D e m o c ratic dollars to labor fo r th is ticket. T h e se m e rcenaries a re em p loyed to travel th e State for the purpose of prom o ting independent tem p e rance nom i nations. M r. Tildcn and his friends well understand th a t e v ery such m o v e m e n t helps them . A vote for the tem p e rance tick e t is half a v o te f o r Tildcn. They can well afford to pay f o r such service, and they are paying f o r it—th e m o n e y going in to th e pockets of m e n w h o are talking loudly f o r tem p e rance and try ing to hoodw ink tem p e rance R e p u b licans into this D e m o c ratic net. But it would bo strange if, when honest temperance men come to realize this fact, they should persist in helping this disreputable gome. We put the facts to them and ask them whether they want to aid a set of men who arc trading upon their honesty for their own selfish and sordid purposes ? Let them an swer on their consciences. We publish above an artiolo from the Albany Evening Journal, addressed to earnest and hon est temperanoo men, in which is contained a charge that “thoso who arc most actively push ing it” (meaning the so-called prohibition tick et) “ carry democratic money in their pockets.” This charge, coming from so reputable a jour nal, should not be passed hastily by. Beyond any question the conductors of that paper have the proof of their assbrtion, or they would not have ventured to make it. We have long thought such must he tho case, for while, as the article says; there are many honest and earnest temperanoo men, yet the busy leaders, the men who by press and convention have put up and kept up the separate ticket arc almost without exception men whose first great wish is the des truction of the Republican party, because they are democrats, like Eastman and Bunnell, or others, who, believing their great merits have been overlooked in their own party, seek to re venge their mortified vanity by its defeat. The editor of the main political journal in the State is a blatant democrat, and was an arrant copperhead daring the rebellion. E. B. Bun nell, during the four years of rebellion and war gave all his sympathies to tho enemies of his country, and these men's zeal for tho Prohibi tion ticket springs from their great desire to de stroy tho Republican party, because it was large ly instrumental in putting down the slavehold ers' rebellion. As these men only serve the democratic party by their course, wo can readily believe their campaign expenses, if nothing more, are paid from democratic contributions. Let tho honest, earnest temperance man, who is in nine cases out of ten a republican, consider carefully before he consents to the unholy bar gain, which, in the name of temperance and morality, sells his vote to the Democratic par ty. A ballot for Myron H. Clark is a vote against John A. Dix, but only tends to the elec tion of democratic Tilden. A ballot for E. B. Bunnell is a vote against Hanford Struble, but directly goes to elect, not Mr. Bunnell, but George W. Spencer and a democratic legisla ture. Do not bo thus sol<l out to tho enemies of yeur party, but if you do consent to it, first make the leaders give you part of tho pay they are receiving.
