FOR GOVERNOR
THOMAS WIN,
OF Us aTTGn COWnGy.
Vvhig MeeliMs


member, that the meeting which was
held at the Court House, on the evening
of the 2lst day of March last, was ad'
iourred TO re assemble at the same
place, on the evening Of ,.
THE 18TH OF JUNE.
The object Of the meeting-the re.
organization Of the friends of a SOUND
CURRENCY and a PROTECTIVE TARIFF
in this county, remains to be accomplish
ed. To those who are alive to The deep
and vast Importance OF this object. We
need make no appeal Such men, (cir-
cumstances permi!ting,) will be there,
ready and willing TO aid, counsel and
advise. But to those who are despon-
denl-whose hearts and hopes are de.
pressed by the gloomy and inauspcious
prospect Of the times, we have a word
to say "by way of eXhorlaton" Never
despair of the RepubIic! The political
evils which afllct the people Of this
country are not to endure forever
If we are faithful 10 ourselves, to our
best interests, 10 our country-the pros.
perity Of The whole people will again
| hn Aa oI Of
which hang in fearful gloom over the
business community, shall disappear
before the light Of wiser and better
policy. This is no ume-in truth,
there is no time, in the history Of re-
pubIics, when the citizens may fold up
up their arms, under the conviction that
they have done al that can be done
for the public good. The spirit and
genius Of our form Of Government re.
Quire Of every citizen constant vigilance
and untirlng action; and upon these
conditions depend our liberties and our
prosperity as q people. No good cili.
zen should ever grow Ceint or weary
10 a good cause In the cause OF his
country.
To our Wing friends we would say;
| it is true, wo have not yet realized all
he good that we bad right 10 expect
from our triumphant labors in the Fall
of 1910, But let i not be forgotten,
that the uGairs Of this nation are just
now, for the first time in the last twelve
years, fairly within the control of a
Whjg Congress; and that Congress, We
are fully persuaded, will not, (tardy as
its progress may seem,) adjourn, until
something even much shall have been
done for The relief Of the people. We
have undated confidence in the dispo-
sition md determined purpose of our
Whig Representatives to discharge their
duty Il their whole duty to their consti.
tuents. But to do this, TO accomplish The
great work for which they were select
ed, time care and labor are indIspensa-
bic, let Us await the result with hope
aud confidence.
For the direct restoration Of the cur
rency IN our own State, we must look to
our own Legislature. Organized as
that body now is, we have nothing 10
hope or expect from that quarter. The
party in power, the same party which,
for the last seven years with the eX-
cpption Of a single year) has held Le
eislative control IT, Ohio, has wHged
incessant md vindictive war upon the
currency Of the State. That war has
no, ceased nor will its destructive ef-
fects cease, until the people shall select
wiser and better meN to represent them.
The Bying,ons, the McNullies and the
Spaldngs, with the whole herd of party
slaves who follow 10 their wake, must
be elected from their seats in The Gen.
eral Assembly; aud firm, honest and
capable men chosen to fill their places.
When this shol have been done, WE
NAV look with some confidence for the
enactment OF laws calculated to prumote
the public good. The times already
give us cheering omens of reformation
-Locofocolsm begins to sink under tht
weight OF its own enormties; and met
Of talents, influence and worth, in differ
cnt parts Of the Stato--men who have
heretofore stood in the very front rank
of the Locoioco party-are openly ant
publicly denounclng The violent and ru
, uous course of their party Representa-
, tives in the last Legislature. SucI
men as Ilamer, M'DowelI n Means, will
> contribute much towards the overthrow
and total rout of Loco(Dcoism. Bu
! that is the legitimate work of the wings
. aud now. with stout hearts and frr
, resolves, let US all engage in that worI
