"He who is worthy of handling a bullet

Of course it does not matter whether these

patriotism or for u big bounty ; whether
they ever burned powder in itor shot five
miles at a rebel: whether they ran away
at the, Petersburg ditch or fought rations
and the pestilent "greybacks" in camp—
they must vote all the same.
"To this was objected that ueithe'r Con

Tax-inyers, you may look in vain through
iho Abolition Republican Shoddy platform
for a single allusion to your utlerivits or to
Slats policy. The whole thing might be
taken for a national platform. so broad is it
in generalities, and so foreign to everything
relating to. his Commonwealth. The name
of our State is not oven mentioned except
once incidentally, and that only to utter a
slander against the Democracy. There is
not one word said about State resources;
about your industrial pursuits ; about your
tax and other burthens; nor is there even
a hint at any policy which might 'relieve
you of debt and taxation, or that might
open to you new avenues of wealth or cut:

Voters and Tax-payers, you have been
ignored entirely by the shining lights t.)
