The Democratic sentinel. [volume] (Cadiz, Ohio) 1852-1853, 1853-08-31
From the Ohio State Democrat
The Whig No-party Candidate,
and his mission.

Inc mig No-parCy Candidate,
and his Mission"
The "ohiO Organ of Temperance Re
form," paper that from its ffst inception
has PLAYED into the hands ofthe whig party
has taken Lorin Andrews, the Scott stump
ing no party candidate for School Commits
siOner, ,unJerils wing. In an article strong
ly recommending Andres VS. claims for OF
fee, this Organ grinds out tie follow
ing:
1T will beIemembered that heis MEM
Der Of the legal profession; and none who
know his abilities, or have ever listened to
the magic ofhis eloquence, and been trans
rorted by the thoughts that breathe and
words that burn," as they come from his
lips, have ever doubted hut that he might
have become one Of the brightest ordamentS
of that profession; but in his characteristic
benevolence and philanthropy, he nobly re-
solved TO lorego the hattering emolents of
the Bar, and enlist his services in behalf Of
Common Schools"
Fnst, because Andrews is a Lqwycr, he
shoull be elected School Commissioner,
and secondly, because, after the high-falut.
in panegyric on his eloquence, which roll
ed from his silyery tongue Sin thoughts
thai breath, and in words that burn" would
have made him one of the brightest orna-
ments OF the Lawer trade, he is peculiarly
fitted for an Office that requires hut good
common seuse to fill 1t. What tune for
an Organ!
But again the Oygaa is wound up, and
the clank being turned, lets out the follow
ing, which in truth is the giSt OF the whole
matter, and discloses in as few words as
possible, why it is that these wings are So
very anxious to secure Andrews election:
awe think none, who know him, no mat
ter what may be their views in regard to
politics, will hesitate one moment 10 give
him their votes; and to those who do not
know him, we can honestly say, lis political
views, whatever they may be- ,are not ul5ra.
His noble generous mission is to prepare,
from all classes and conditions, able polite
ians for the next generation
Like General Taylor, this no-party can
didate is whig but not an aItra wbig, and
ifelected, his mission is to prepare, jrom
all classes, ABLE POLITICIANS for
! lie aeH geaerdti0D.' So, then, the mission
of Mr. Andrews is not to attend to the int
erests of the schools, but TO polltcs-not
with the money OF the tax payers Of Ohio,
to secure the advantages of a common
school education 10 all the youth Of the
State but to ustil politics into the children,
or in other words. instead Of teaching them
morality, to give them doses of whiggery, IN
order t. ''prepure, from all classes, aCle P0t-
Hicj0ns, for tie meet geErratiop." Such is
the admission OF this Andrews euiogIst.--
Let US see if there be anything in the histo~
ry of Mr.. Andrews to justify his friend, who
bespatters him all sorts Of praise, in thus de-
scrbing his mission
We nave else where said that Andrews
was stamp speaker during the last Presl
Dental election, for Gen. Scott. He was
then under pay Of fifteen hundred dollars
Ger anpum. rom the Teachers Institute, to
travel and make friends for the cause of ed
ucation, and while drawing this large sala
~ OF one hnndred and twenty-five dollars a
month, he tried to carry out his emission by
denouncing Gen. Pierce, and doctrines OF
TIE Democratic party, and euIogznG Gen,
scott, and the principles OF whggery.-
Finding that bis mission was not among
men, but with boys and girls,-not with
the nresent, but with the future, he Is pre-
pared, when elected, to instp his principles
into the scholars of our public schools, and
to make wtigs of the children OF the state
whether they be males OF fem Ale4.
From the past r0en's history we must
judre of the future. MIR Andrews forgot
his caling when engaged in advocating the
educational interests Of the State, and used
the time, paid for by the friends of ednca-
ton at the rate Of over four dollars per day
to make whig eec,ioneering speeches for
Gen. Scott. This Organ grinder intimates
most strongly that he will do the same 'hn1g
at the expense Of the people, il he should
be elected. We do not doubt 1t.
Following Immediately after tho admls-
sion above, the writer ADDS:
"He is man ofamost unparalleled vir'
tue and sagacity, Of the most liberal views,
and is extremely democratic in his social IN
tercourae with men"
If the facts we have narrated, are to be
taken as a sample of the ''unpal'alelled o71-
tue and sa9acily" of Mr.. ANDREWS, gIa
are we that
None but himself can be his parallel
for It is a kind OF virtue "more to be hon
oyed in the breach than in the observance. "
Such virtce is not, we are happy TO say,
found in any ofthe Democratic candidates.
for the mission Of the man nomlnatedlS toDe
elected, and to kaep the schools OF the STATE
free, alike from scctallahism ana politics.
The introduction Of either, would prove the
ruin Of the whole Eysiem--wouid at once
rnp the death kneli in Ohio, and hence, as
friend of the system, and inPraise Of bis
friends we find additional reasons to do our
utmost to prevent the election of Andrews,
and call upon the frierds Of the school law
to aid us in our mission
