The Kalida venture. [volume] (Kalida, Ohio) 1841-1865, 1853-09-30
The Election

win be had on Tuesday, The ll'h ius'.,
and the character Of the Ohio Leglsla-
ture and State Government will then be
determined for two years, perhaps tor :
much longer. We trust that the Demo-
Gratis will be on hand at the polls; II IS
true ,ley are now in the ascendant, but
they can only continue so. by v'gllan'
effort 10 sustain their vantage position
Their principles are involved, 'orlt is The
genius Of our Government TO give oppor-
tuniiy for efec, 10 every change OF pub"
lie sentiment, by frequent elections; and
he that is negligent Of attendance at the
polls, is negligent about the success oi
principle, as that depends upon men and
votes. Democratic principle, we admit,
is not unduly s,lmula,ing-it is the ma
,ured and sober practical consideration
of what is best and trues, in government,
BY the more practical majority Of the cit
izens. Other hastily adopted opinions,
profering a political millennium, excite
hopes and snticipations i. is impossible
Government, can fulfil. But the Illusion
while il lasts is none the less exciting
aud maddening, because it is only an illu'
sion; and sometimes Democrats ate de-
ceiyed. until the "sober second thought
proves that not every new idea is true
reform, and that the highest possible rec
opnition of individual liberty, consistent
with social order, gives the best govern
meut.
Then. fellow citizens! 10 the PoHs!--
Vote for PR1NcipIEs AND MEN-not one
withou, the other; bu, give, as heretofore,
your support to good men and good
principles--bo,h being necessary, the one
10 the o,hsr--and the calls are few in
which they can have separate sustain
ment: you know what Democratic prIn-
ciple is, and you know the men presented
to carry il out.
