Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1841-1853, 1849-07-19

UFor divers reasons it is important that we should
be represented by wings in the next Legislature. A state
treasurer, a State auditor, and a State printer are TO DO
elected, and much of the success of our party in the
State, as well rs un able and efficient management of
those departments, depend ON the complexion OF that
body. We all kaOw how important, IN a nicely balanced
state of parties, one vote becomes, and the wings need
every vote they can command.-MadisOn Banner.
We hope our democratic friends will take the hint,
and profit by the above. The way ICE Look at the
matter. it is important ''for divers reasons that there
should be q democratic majority in the next legisla-
ture. The people of the State have declared in favor
of democratic State policy, and that policy has eman-
ciPaied us from n great portion Of the crushing diff
ties under which we Iabored so recently. The wings,
if in power, might not attempt any change for the
worse, but it is safest not To trust them.
Three Of the most important offices at the seat of
government are filed at present by wings of the
Old Hunker stripe, and it is due TO the people. and to
our democratic State policy, that these gentlemen
should be ousted by the next Legislature and demo-
Gratis put in their places. Let democratic measures
be carried out by democratic men.
At the August election three years ago, the legisla-
ture was last to us by Discussions in our own ranks.
The inordlnate ambition and selfShness of a few who
called themselves democrats defeated US at that time
in several of our strongest Democratic counties. A
wing representative was elected in Monroe, one in
Clark, one in Washington, and one 10 Johnson ; and
a wing Senator was returned from Lawrence county.
Besides this, our friends permitted nearly all the close
and doubtful districts to go against us. Some vert
by default, others by divisions and a multiplicity OF
candidates. The result is well known. A faithful
democratic State Auditor was ousted to make room
for an Old bunker wing, who has been for a long
series of years an active member of the indianapolis
Federal Junto; o competent and gentlemanly demo
cratic State Treasurer had to give place to 4 bitter and
%iIlibernl wing of the Wayne county school; the State
Sentinel had to walk the plank in the matter of the
State printing for the benefit of that racy concern the
State Journal; several Judgeships passed unto wing
hands, and much mischief of various sorts was the
consequence of the delinquency of a few men ia a
very few counties. The August election is close a,
hand again, and this is the year those losses are
to be retrieved if ever. Will not the democratic par.
ty, and every member of it, see to it in time Let
democrats hasten to heal their discussions wherever
any exist. Where there are too many candidates,
let a convention be speedily called to decide between
them. If there be any counties or districts where
there are no democratic candidates, let good men be
brought out at once, for there is no time to lose.
Let the Democrats in every part of the State re-
member how much depends on the next Legislature
that the II senators to be elected now, have votes to
give for a U. S. Senator! AVOID TRADING. GO
the whoe democratic ticket and nothing bu, that.
We have the pleasure of informing our friends tina,
we regard the election of our candidates for Governor
Lieutenant Governor, and eight members of Congress,
as certain. Let us therefore make a long pull, O
strong pull, and a pull all together for the LEGIsLA.
