THE wHro Parry or FArRrIrLD-Ns.

Almost every year within our recollec.
tion, there have been differences Of opin4
ion in regard to the policy Of running
wing ticket in this county. Some are
in favor Of an entire ticket, others of q
partial ticket and Others of none at ell.
Under these circumstances, It is not to
be wondered at that at times we are uu.
able to concentrate our forces and do
battle with an undivided front, and it ID
high time tha; some united action should
be had upon the question in order that
those difficulties may hereafter be avoid.
ed. This can only be done by general
understanding among the Wings of the
county. majority Of whom should govern
in this matter If cetain course of pol4
icy is marked out by the party, individ-
uals will submit TO the will of the najcri-
ty and will the more readily enter into
the contest with the proper spirit
Another difficulty has frequently oc.
Cured in the manner Of bringing candi.
dates before ths people. and much discon-
tent and lukewarmness has been caused
among the friends Of particular individu.
ais. A remedy can easily be devised for
all this by adopting particular mode Of
nomination, that each partof the county
may have thei: vo.ce in selecting tick
ct. To this complexion must we come
at last, if we wish to battle with any
hope of future success against an unis
ted and as yet victorious opposition. 1t
is folly to present each year an array of
forces disappointed in their choice Of
leaders and the mode Of battle against
well.organized and thorough drilled enc.
my.
1t is equally futile to expect to meet
with any success unless we are prepared
at all times to take advantage of the po.
sition Of our opponents and at such times
meet them with forces fully organized
who have proper disposition towards
their own party. We must be organized
and more fully understand each other.
i There must be union of hearts and of
). hands-a all tending in the same direction
and looking at the same end. A stout
I arm is of little consequence with an un
: willing heart Unless the Wing party
D is composed of this kind of material and
is thus organized, it can never take ad-
0 vantage of weak position and thus de-
+ stroy the unity of their opponents. With
: the proper committees and the facilities
= of information within our reach, il would
: require but little labor to have our forces
: always in such position that the least
1 effort would bring them TO the polls whom
ever required. We may be mistaken
5 I'VE know we are more sanguine than
:, . some others; but we have an abiding faith
in the maxim that truth crushed to earth
! will rise again" We do not expect to
i. gain victory over our political adver-
; saries in one campaign--but we do ex.
i pecl 10 see times in future when we can
> make q strong impression upon them. and
iftruth and right is with US, we must in
:. the end achieve triumph.
e We trust the Wings throughout the
county win take this matter under aa-
|, visemem and make it a subject of CON
e versation with their neighbors prior tothe
= meeting on the 18th. Many ofthem are
% acquainted with the difficulties we speak
y of and have expressed desire to- adopt
e some means To avoid them in future,
J; This we think can easily be done by re-
e solving upon some definite mode Of or
" ganizaton and some definite plan Of &C.
lion. At any rate, we trust the differ
d ent townships will see to it that they are
1t we'll presented in the meeting, for it is
" " only at full meeting, where it may be
a, supposed the opinions of the party may
! be confidently known, that action should
be had upon matters pertaining to orgsn.
ization and discipline.
