Tho prosperity talk la about played out. Tho state Republican club orpin Izer told tho Salem Republican elub that all that was DPcewsary was to orgunlzo the state and make a cam paign of prosperity, to win In 1802. His theory seemed to bu that If tho people wero ouly told that they were prosperous and would elect the party that told them of It they would be more prosperous whether they really wero or not. Baying so docs not make any thing so. It will bo better to niako tho campaign next year conceding tome of tho wrongs and adversities complained of, than to make the prosperity argument ever so much und lose by it. The country has a right to he fairly prosperous and not to be under obligation to any party for It. The wuy for the Republican party to -I'ln is to sleo up tho needs of the iMKJple. propose Just measures of relief and then make nn earnest fight for them. Much a campaign would command respect.
