The Illinois free trader and LaSalle County commercial advertiser. [volume] (Ottawa, Ill.) 1841-1843, 1843-06-30

The editor of the Sangamo Journal is about as
accurate in his geography as he is in his state
ments generally. Recently he spoke Of the con-
vention which nominated Giles Spring for con-
srcss as having been held at Oimc0, and in his
las, he informs his readers that Col. Wentworth
ia canyassins the sirih district The editor Of the
Alton Telegraph would also do well to make him.
little better acquainted with our affairs before he
undertakes to discuss them. In biz last he grave
Iy puts forth host Of the most ridiculous charges
against the democratic candidate for congress in
ibis district, whose name, he says, is John A
Wentworth. lie also says that "Mr. Spring is a
sterling and inacxible wing, possessing high or.
der of talent" &c. Now we venture to say that
the editor of the Telegraph had never heard oil
Giles Spring before he was nominated for congress
in opposition to Col. Wentworth.

!tlors.


One Of the objections which the opponents Of
the democratic party in this district urge against
our candidate for congress is, that he is the editor
Of newspaper. i IS bat lately since this has
been discovered to be an objection, and it may he
given as another evidence Of the superior wisdom
Of the present age over all that have preceded it,
| We--ihough yet Gar from being in the "sear and
yellow leaf can very well remember when peo-
ple used to think that the more Intimately a man
was acquainted with the affairs of the nation, aud
with the real wants and wishes of the people, the
better he was qualified to discharge the duties Of
such an office as representative in the state
lional legislature, or OF almost any other important
public Office; ard a. editors, from the nature Of
their business are obliged to he, and Therefore,
doubtcdly as body are, mitch more intimately ac-
quainted with the affairs of the nation than any
other class of men, aud as their business also
obligcs them to study closely the feelings and
wishes Of their ncig hbofs, people used to think
they of all classes, about the best qualified for
such an Office as that of representative, &c. Thus
I
vaua when they were won't SO frequently, to take
! DR.. Franklin away from his editorial chair and
place him in their mos, Important public Offices, the
duties of which he always discharged with SIN
gular ability and fidelity and the Doctor, although
no could unfold the laws that regulate the light
ming and catch it up in bottle, was yet so UbiGse
Of intellect as not to discover that being editor
entirely disqualified a man for holding any impor-
tant public office, and while a member the Con-
tincntaI Congress he actually used to be guilty of
the attocity of writing the editorials for lis own
paper aud the Continental Congress used to elect
him, member Of their own body, public printer
Gen. Jackson, also, it appears never knew that an
editor was unfit to hold Office, for when Amos
| Kendall was still editor Of the Kentucky Com
monwcalth the General actually appointed him
70 an important Office at Washington-he even
honorcd him with a scat in his cabinet, by max
ing him postmaster general, and, what is very sin
guar Amos Kendall was about the best posunas.
ter general we have ever had but, still, 1t was
very wrong ia Gen. Jackson to appoint hin. We
also remember when people used to think that, as
editors were always obliged to work harder for the
party than any other class Of men, aud a. it was
notorious that no other class Of men were more
poorly paid for their labor than editors, if they did
their duty faithfully, they had rather stronger
claims on the party than any other class of men,
at all events, more than the corrupt set of lccches

The Eight spirit.

The following resolutions were adopted by the
late Cook county democratic convention. We
commend them to the attention of our readers:
Whereas we are upon the verge of an
important political contest involving the
ascendency Of democratic principles for
several years to come; and the present is
the most favorable opportunity we shall
have, for long time, to regain the pow
err which the democratic party lost in
1910, therefore,
Resolved, That the presen! is no time
for harboring disputes founded upon per-
sonal prejudice or local interests, or upon
any other subject save those principles o!
national government which would best
conduce to the public welfare; and that
the crisis demands a surrender Of every
minor consideration, and one united rally
for the triumph Of the democracy in
1874.
Resolved, That the election Of John
Quincy Adams by the House of Represen-
tatives in 1924 10 tho Presidency Of the
United States, when large majority of
The people were opposed to him, should
he a warning TO us in choosing our next
Congressman, who also may be called up
on to vote for Presidents; and in vain
would our state give an overwhelming
democratic majority, should the election
of the President come before the House,
and there be majority of wing congress
men elected in August next.
Resolved, That with this view of the
subject, there is but one safe course for
The democracy of this congressional dis
lrict to pursue, and that is for every man
interested in the ascendency of democra-
cy in this country and who would place
the non-election of wing President be-
You'd all doubt, to support the regular
nominee.
Resolved, That we have every conf
dcnce in the qualifications and democracy
Of Col. John Wentworth as candidate
for Congress and also those of the gentle
men this day nominated, and that we ex-
hort every democra, to give them his cor
dial support since to vote against them
would be either to vote for a wing or to
throw vote away; either to directly help
the wings whilst pretending to be dem
ocrat or to silently acquiesce in wing as
tendency.
