FoR THE DEMoCRATIO STANDARD.
TO THE DEMOCRACY OF CLER-
MONT.


MONT.
Having been appointed one Of the Del
sgates from Brown county to the late
Faye:tville convention, Twas an eye wit
ness Of The doings Of your delegates on
that occasion; and as . DemOciat, | must
say felt sorry TO see those who had here
tOioFe stood shoulder to shoulder with US
in the good cause of sqsl rights and Who'll
some laws turn around aud 60 as il were
over to the enemy; for those that are not
for US must be against Us: Democrats OF
Clermont, consider the question Serious
IL, aud suppose for a moment that you
and Highland had have been unanimous
in favor ofMorrs, and Brown had have
acted in the manner you have done,
would you not have here condemned
berS ave, 10 the man. We admit you
had your preference; 10 had Brown and
Highland but is il Democracy to say that
the minority should bear rule and dictate
to the msiority. Brown county held, IS
it were, the bala ice OfpOwer in her own
hands; she had no candidate before the
convention. Highland had one, so had
Clermont. The Democracy Of Brown
voted on that occasion for measures, not
for men. They voted for one who has
on all occasions shows himself q warm
and ardent supporter Ofthe constitution
and of good and wholesome laws-one
who in the memorable campaign Of 1910
battled manfully in the front ranks o.
Democracy-one who stood up for prin'
ciples and not men. What, then, car
you charge him wilh9 Is there anything
in his private characterf no.: il is as
spotless as the driven snow. Come out
then, and tell US, wherein he has sinnet
against Democracy. We as Democrat
OF Brown and Highland, confess that W.
are in the dark, and f there is any fOu
blot resting upon his hitherto fair fame
we wish 10 know It. IfyOu find no faul
in him, and only have your own partial
ity to crafty, we then ask you as Breth
rem this day 10 choose whom you will
vote for-the whig candidate, favorabl,
10 a United States Bank, High Tariff
Distribution, Abolition and what not; o
the Democratic candidate opposed to al
Of these; opposed TO monopOlies Of a
kinds, which have a tendency to max
the rich richer and the poor, poorer. =
Democrats Of ClermOnt, the eyes Of tn
Democracy Of Ohio are upon you; sha
| il be said that the great and decisive viz
tories which have lately attended OF
just and righteous cause in nearl
!. every State, even Kentucky, were tarr
ished by decisive victory Of the enem
owing 10 the dissensions in our own rank
in this district Heaven forbid it, tn
enemy are already Chrckling over thet
anticipated victory, which they know ca
never be, as long as we are united, an
they will use every art aud every siratI
gem in their power to widen tho breacI
We appeal to your reason, 10 your goo
sense, and your love Of correct principle
to come out manfulIy and aid US in eleC
ing Democrat 10 congress in the plaC
of q United States Bank Wing am don
and in parting would observe that It d
. feated, the blameEshall never be attach'
to the Democrats Of Brown county;
let others do as they may, we will do o.
duty and will give Mcdowell 300 mOjO
= in the county.
A DAMocRAT OF BROWN.
