The VAN BuRES FLAG Sraucxl-Tbe GAINESVILLE
(Oho) Aurora gives the following reasons for taking
down Mr.. Van Boren's name from its columns as q
candidate for President:
We have taken down the name Of Mr.. Van Buren,
because It seems TO US the height Of presumption for
presses and politicians to forestall public opinion in
reference to the great question Of the Presidency II
be the business Of the People to eie, il is equally
their business To select and when the exercise of the
latter IS taken from their hands they will gain nothing
by retaining the former. The bringing out Of a can
d'dse for Office, TO the exclusion of all Others is eaui
valent TO h's nomination and his nomination is tan
tamount to an election, providing the party nominal
ing be IN the majority hence, the bringing out of a
man rourh 10 his eieefion The startling conclusion
oil all that rs, that few bold and impudcnt men, by
pushing forward their favorite chief and frown,ng
down all others, virtually and to all nents the
primal and, consequently, the real agencies nv which
,he,r man Is made to fill, perhaps the highes, Office
IN the nation. This system Of action carried out and
the right OF suffrage is not worth the paper upon
wn'on your election tickets are printed. In order to
move right the People must move first; and when
they have pointed out the way, then let other. ad-
vance with whatever rapidity may suit their inclna
ton
