Chicago Journal. The general judgment of the demo llcans against the danger of allowing this district to go into the hands of the democrats. We cannot afford this; we can gain nothing by combining or treating with democrats.

We, as a county, would lose oar commanding position In the republican convention next time, if we go back on the nominee for congress. There is one honorable patriotic course for all good republicans to follow and that Is to vote for Hon. J. G. Cannon for congres8.n- Vote the straight Republican ticket.

Irat New York Independent writes the following burning words as a last uterance before election day: remarkable campaign is now near its close; and as this will be our last word before the actually voting takes place, we call upon our readers. each and all ministers, church-members, citizens who have the right to vote, and those, young and old and of both sexes, who do not posess the right to do what they can to secure the defeat of Mr. Cleveland, and for the reason that, while he is not intellectually fitted to be President, the Infamy attaching to his moral character utterly and absolutely disqualifies him for this high office. Whatever else they do, or omit to do, et them do this, and thereby serve then- country, and teach all unprincipled poli ticians and party managers a lesson in respect to the claims of morality, that they will not speedily forget, and that those who are ambitious for public hon ors will not fail to remember in their private lives. May God save the country from the disgrace of having Grover Cleveland for its Ix a recent democratic meeting held in Brooklyn, N.

and addressed by Rev. Henry Ward Beecher in support of Cleveland, he read a letter addressed to Mrs. Beecher by that great moral candidate, in which he confesses to the Halpin charges, indulges in a sickly sentimentality about being reminded of his mother, denies any immoral conduct in Albany and inquires: "Can I not ar- range to see him (Mr. Beecher), andtell him what I can not write?" The entire letter is the most puerile and sickening apology at explanation ever given to the people through the newspaper press. Besides, he is not I charged with indecent conduct at Alba-1 ny.

It is at Buffalo where the evidence of his conduct is overwhelming and is brought down to a period as late as last July. The thoughtful republican who has the good of his country at heart can not afford to permit some local interest or personal spite to control his vote when great issues are at stake. Besides, every such man has hundreds of associates whose opinions and preferences are entitled to respect who will be injured bv such a course to a decrree out of nrn- i portion to the value of one vote. Let there be a straight, unscratched ticket from top to bottom voted by every republican. Vote the straight Republican ticket.

1 i Vote the straight Republican ticket A PEW WORDS TOE SOLDIERS. One of our exchanges calls attention to the representation of soldiers on the ticket to be toted next Tuesday, which we have corrected to include our legis lative and county tickets, showing FOURTEEN SOLDIERS and only five citizens to be voted for in Coles county. It says: "You are urged to support and vote for one lame soldier upon the democratic ticket a man who ignores republican soldiers when they are candidates, men with one arm and one leg, but votes in stead for democrats who voted the war a failure. Ou the other hand, the re publicans present to you a ticket covered all over with soldiers. "Out of nineteen candidates to be voted for on next Tuesday, the demo crats point to their one ex-soldier, poor fellow, how strange he must feel! Let us look at some of them.

Cleveland opposed the war, and when drafted hired a substitute. Thomas A. Hendricks, copperhead, has opposed everything proposed tn legislation since itWO. The balance of the ticket, with one or two exceptions, have applauded all that Hendricks did, even if they did no. worse.

At all these places he was greeted by immense crowds of people enthusiastic for the ticket. In his speech at Danville he empha-cised the important issues in which the people of this district are interested, and paid a high tribute to the ability and fidelity of our congressman. Hon.

What dealer does not know that he never bought and sold goods so low and at so small a margin of profit? But, says Mr. SDrinirer: "Onlv for protection th dealer could buy at 50 per cent, discount from present prices." What explanation will he make, then, to the wage-worker whose labor constituted seven-eighths of the cost of production of these goods? In our opinion, Mr.

Springer is not a fool; neither is he ignorant of the facts. He is a prcverter of the facts for political effect, and he knows it. His Mat-toon speech, as published in Sunday's Retrister. from copy furnished bv Mr. Springer himself, is a disgrace to himself and to the party which he assumes to represent, and an insult to every intelligent constituent in his district, re gardless of politics, Ejtfry jugglery of political chicanery inline whole Md of tariff misrepresentation, is resorted to.

Storey, pro prietor of the Chicago Times, which oc curred this week has called out many editorial comments upon his career as a great journalist. Having lived" the life of an Ishmaelite. in his death there are almost none who mourn at his death; yet it is a fact that he has left a mark upon the journalism of the country as deep as any newspaper manager in America. Master of his own fortunes and an empty pocket at the age of 12 years he wrestled long with fate before he gained a competence, although at hia death he was worth a million. In his conduct -of the Times during his most successful years his professional zeal swallowed every other consideration.

He was without conscience, without any sense of propriety, had no regard for morality, decency or the good iuuue of any living creature in his desire to give "the Six years before his death his mind gave way. and for many months he had been an imbecile, whose conception was too feeble to comprehend the audacity of those who hadjalready began a quarrel ovetjthe property accumulated by liisowu individual effort lfore he was borne to his unhonored grave. There is a lesson in his life that Young America may studv with benefit.

In Mattoon the sphere is small and the responsibility limited, but it is great as upon any equal unrulier of voters anywhere in the country, and every man should do his duty. In one respect this congressional district has a special responsibility. It is expected to hold steadfastly its republican congressional vote without loss, so that there may lie sufficient gains in the country reclaim the majority in congress from reactionary democracy and give a republican president the support of a friendly congress.

noN. M. W. Mathews, ln his newspaper, the Champaign County Herald, this week says: "The campaign draws a close and a gigantic effort Is being made to trade everything off for Gen. Black for congress.

This Is a serious matter and should be approached by republicans from a party standpoint. A victory for Blaine and Logan can do but little good without a republican congress. It is, therefore, all Important to or thoBe given to Garfield. It will not count as a vote for Elaine and Logan to scratch out the names of Cleveland and Hendricks and Insert those of the republican candidates. The vote for the electors only counts.

The census of 1880 gave Illinois manufacturing establishments and Massachusetts 14,352. In 1800 Massachusetts had 8,176 and Illinois had 4,268, showing a gain -for Massachusetts in twenty years of 6,176, and a gain in Illinois of 10271.

Says Dr. Storrs, the eloquent divine of the Empire State, speaking of Cleveland; "The suggestion that a man whose history is stained with admitted licentiousness may yet properly aud deliberately be put at the head of the Nation must certainly lie scouted. Forgiveness is one thing; Kpulpr coronation is quite another. Ethlco must surely take precedence of politics.

It would seem to me certainly a grave offense against the family, against the public for cnaate Womani.ood, against to elevate to the highest office in the gift of his countrymen a man with a loose woman in hia train and an illegitimate son." The Doctor advises everylxxly to vote for Blaine and Logan. Vote the straight Republican ticket. In the fight of Brains against Brawn for the presidential office, the Brains are rapidly going to the front. The bettiug was all in favor of Cleveland a month ago, but now it's 1C0 to (So in favor of Blaine, and no takers. Cleveland is proving himself a deadhead in the enterprise of putting the Solid South into the saddle again.

If President Blaine should die, his Bucsessor would be a man equal to Chinese Gordon for every emergency. If President Cleveland should die, we should bury a bad memory, and it would lie succeeded by a man who aided rebels at the North, while Logan was fighting them in the South, and a man who has been against every honest effort since the war to preserve and defend its results.
