Muwacken, Wis, Oct. 20—The Repub- Nenns of Wisconsin were never better prepared for n great battle at. tho polls than at present, and they send greeting to thelr brother soldiers In the Union army allalong the line. ‘They promise—and they will falthfully keep thelr word—that they will emphasize Wisconsin’s ten Electoral votes for Garfield with 25,000 majority, elect six, If ot seven, of the elght Representatives to Congress, and carry both branches of the Stute Legistature by Inrge majorities, thus securing & Republican United States Senator In the place of Angus Cameron, ‘That ts the grand work which the Republican manngers mapped owt at the beginning of the catn- palgn, and to that end all their energies have beon directed, “Good reports reach tho Re- publican State Central Committee from all auarters and from every school district in the State. ‘The canvass hns been most complete and thorough, as next Tucs- day's work will demonstrate, and there will be a Dinze of excitement and enthusiasnt from river to Inke until the setting sun on the 2d of November closes down upon the contending hosts. The fight on the part of the Republicans has been a bold and aggres- sive one everywhere, and public meetings Ihave never been as numerous or as well at- tended as they have been this fall, and there never has been a better appreciation of the great issues that divide the two parties on the part of the general public. The Repub- licans have challenged their opponents to 0 full and falr discussion of the principles that underlle the two parties, and invited the sun- Nght of investigation into all the acts of the dominant party for tha Inst twenty years; but thelr opponents preferred the ‘still. hunt” game, in which Jying, forgery, and calumny was their principal stock-in-trade. MANCOCK'S NOMINATION seemed to create considerable enthusiasm among the Wisconsin Bourbons at first, but itsoon died ont, all hopes of carrying: the State vanished, and they earnestly set them- selves at work to keep tho little polltical power they had in the three Democratic Con- gressional districts, Of these three Demo- erats,—Deuster, Bragg, and Bouck,—the Int- ter {sas goad as beaten already, Deuster’s defent is nbout the same ns assured, and tlt- tle Bragg is almost as badly frightened as Bouck, and with goud reason, Itis nut too much to say that the Repub- ftenns have had greatly the advantage of the Democrats in the character of thelr Congres- slonnl candidates. As Garfield is mentally, morally, and politleally vastly and ficom- parubly the superior of Hancock, so it fs not egotistleal to say that personally, intel- lectually, politically, and in most in- stances snorally also, the Republicans have offered the people the best candidate: Indeed, politleally,—and perhaps that asp of the ens is the only proper one to be con ‘sidered in a newspaper article,—the Demo- eratie candidates for Congress are n sorry lot of fellows with bad records anid moth- eaten reputations, The mantle of charity ts here spread over the political sins of “Clint” Babbitt, who Is ostensibly the Democratic enndidate for Congress In tho First District against Charley Willlams, be- cause he had the good sense to epentk and yote in favor of Charley's election two years ago, and to repudiate tho base bargain that hs party made with the Fiat Junaties, “Clint” will be buried under6,000' majority; but then his candidacy will keep the Demo- cratic vote from being headed “ Scattering” dn the column of election returns.

Ile was formerly, when a Circult Judge, very intemperate, but now, to lils credit be it written, he las be- come thoroughly reformed, But, ike most modern Democrats, Cothern 1s a first-class demagog, and has been everything by turns and nothing long. ‘Twenty years age, when the Rullrond Farm Mortgageors had a State organization, and the question was one of great local importance, Cothern attempted to get elected a Judge of the Court on that issue, pledging himself In advance to a certain line of conduct on that question, His Inst ap pearance before the public as a candidate for office was In 1878, when Jo Rankin run him as a Demoeratic candidate for Assoclite Justice of the Supreme Court against the Ion, Orsamus Cole. Cothern perambulated the State, making speeches and soliciting votes in his own behalf fora judicial oftice; and the people answered him atthe ballot-box -with over 33,000 majority for Cole, Cothern 1s also n Flut lunale on the currency question, a, C, GnEaGonY, of Madison, who ts running against Caswell in the Second District, is a good Inwyer and arespectablo citizen, But he is not only an old Bourbon Democrat, with all that the term {mplics, but he turns out to have been a prominent and influential member of the old Know-Nothlug party, “in good and regi ar standing,” the record says, and was tho candidate of that party for Congress in the State of Now York. before emigrating to Wisconsin, A large proportion of the voters of the Second District 1s composed of Ger- mans, Danes, and Norwegians, many of them Catholles, who will let Sr. Gre y know on election-day Just what they think of a man who attaches himself to such a proscriptive and fanatical organization.

DEUBTEWS FALSE PRETENSES. Spectat Dispateh to The Chieaga Tribune, MILWAUKEE, Oct, 20,.—Peter V. Deuster, editor of the Secbotc, and Democratic mem ber of Congress from this district, [s seeking a retlection, aut depends mainly upon falso and fraudulent pretenses for his votes, ‘Tha special plen that Deuster’s friends make in his behalf Is that he obtained ‘a favorable re- port from the Commlttce on Commerce, of which Deuster is a member, to allow Mil- waukee an old elalin for money expended twenty years io on that part of the harbor known ns the Strole t Cut, ‘The job was une dertaken by the clty; the general Goyern- ment had nothing whatever to do with ity Ie was purely a local affale, und the city of Milwaukee so regarded ft, Issued her bonds and paid fur it, and hag honestly paid the honds as fast as they fell due, ‘Che origes inal claim and interest added now amount to the snug Ittle sain of $350,000, and Deus- ter makes belleve that if he is returned to Congress again he will certainty get the amount pald at the next session, “He points to the favorable report already obtained, and will no doubt fool a few Milwaukeeans into voting for hint next Tuesday with the ex- pectation that the next xpproprintion bill that passes Congress will have the desired item Pa of $50,000 for Milwaukee on a clain on which tho stutute of ilnitations has already run. But no Intelligent man. in the Fourth Dis- trict will be inveigtesd! into Deuster’s harbor trap and give hin his vote on sich aspurious claim. ‘To reta favorable report froma Com- tnittee Ig one thing, and often an easy thing, but to get. nn appropriation bill to pass both Jlouses of Congress and signed by the Prest- dent is quite another and nvuch more difleulé undertuking. Mr, Deuster was elected in 1878 by only 135 inajority in what was originally the bunner Democratic aistrict in the State, and something must be done to help hin, in- asmiuch he vould not help himself. | lo was a violent Coppertiend during the Rebell- jon, and the Confederate Brigadiers in Con gress, one of whom fs the Chairman of the Committee,—Reagan, of Texas,—of course have a warm side for Deuster and for all old. Copperteads like him. Bestdes, the Democrats are sxecedinely anxious te hold on to their majority in the JIouse, and this favorable ommendation on I er’s old moth-caten. Hatin was simply and solely made in order to help Deuster pull through, That is all the ilk there Is In that cocounut. No Congress willever allow thut clalin, and everybod: ought to understand it, 1f it had any merit it would not have been neglected for twenty years: and if itshould bo paid it would es tablish a precedent that would open the doors of the National Toho to-n flood of sitnilar claims that would bankrupt the Nas tlon, Denster fs running on false pretenses, and ought to be, and will be, beaten, a CINCINNATI.
