The Wyandot pioneer. (Upper Sandusky, Ohio) 1853-1868, 1853-09-22
What Kind was It!

organized by calling Mr.. A. Campbell, OF
McCutchenville, to the chair, and appoint
ing Mr., Holmes, Secretary. (Here long
silence prevailod.) The chairman arose
and knocked on TIE stand, and then said,
81 supposeit is not necessary to state the
object of this meeting" (The object as
stated by the Whig Central Committee,
was to nominate a Wing ticket) The
President took his seat, and again silence
prevailed for few moments, when Mr..
w. Kisdadden moved for committee oi
three on credentials, and a report of the
said committee Messrs. Brown, Carey
and Jury, were appointed. A committee
of one from each township was appointed
to report business for the meeting This
committee did not entirely agree A re-
port was made in favor of the mungrel
ticket, with the exceptions Of one name.
Mr.. N. w. Dennison being eraced and
that of Mr.. M. H. Kirby put in stead.
MI. Gibson then offered some resolu-
tons, declaring that a portion of the peo-
pie are opposed to political organization
in the county, and that the wings as par
ty abandon their organization. Here this
gentleman attempted to show that such
an organization was absolutely necessary
for the defeat of the Democratic party
He was opposed to conventions, but came
into one to make nominations for the peo-
pie. This was called as a Whig con-
vention, and still Mr.. G., figuring in it,
was opposed to making Whig nominations
but was in favor Of a peoples ticket
A beautiful idea.) We were unable to
get the resolutions, declaring the Whig
party defunct, but should like to have had
the pleasure of laying them before our
readers.
| DR.. Ferris replied to Gibson, and said
that the convention, was called for the pur-
pose of nominating Whig ticket to be
supported by the Wings for the several
offices to be filled this fall. DR.. F., went
on to show, that although the intention of
Mr.. G. was to destroy the Democratic
party, his efforts were erroneous, and that
it could only be done by perfect organ
ization among the Wings. He thought
the election of a few sore-headed demo-
Gratis would be no additional strength to
the Wings. We suppose the sore head
ed democrats, were Nc Cutchen & CO..
G. ". Beery, Esq, followed DR.. F. and
showed up the shallowness of the new
mungrel organization in its proper light.
He spoke of the convention at Crawfords-
vile, and said that it was truly an indie
pendent convention-independen of wings
independent of the people and every
thing else; and that the ticket putin nom-
ination there was got up by very few.per
sons. He was opposed to mungrel tic
ket and would only support full Whig
one. He would not mention names, but
would refer to the history of some of the
candidates and see if they were anything
else than ofice-seekers. He also said,
abandon your State organization and you
abandon your county organization. (So
say we, and hope the democrats will not
abandon their county organization. Mr..
Gibson thought this organization was on
ly momentary and not general. 1t is on
ly for the purpose of breaking in on the
democratic organization. He spoke of
the manner the Wings were disorganizing
the Democratic party, in Seneca and 9TH
er counties. Here, Democrats, you can
see McCutchen and other boilers attemp-
ting to break up your organization Mr..
Beery was opposed to union with cor
rupt men and sore headed Democrats for
any person. Mr.. Gibson still contented
that this new organization was the only
way to defeat the Democrats. He dispised
political organization for county officers.
(What was he attempting all this time?
Nothing more or less than to get up one
of the most base and corrupt political or
ganizations that ever existed in a county
since the organization Of the first party.
Mr.. Beery spoke of conversation with
Mr.. Brinkerhooff, in relation to the clique
that assembled in Charlottesville and put
in nomination a mongrel ticket He said
his heart suffered at the idea of it being
called apeople's convention. Here an al
tercation took place between Messrs.
Brinkerhoff and Beery, in relation tosome
letters that had been written; when Mr.
Kirby interfered, and said he did not wish
the letters read. Some persons followed
read, and some not. The letters were not
read.
Mr.. G. G. Worth than rose and express
ed some grievances at not having been
consulted in relation to the call for a con-
vention.
The convention decided that the bolter
ticket, should be the ticket for the Wings,
by vote of 33; large number for a
peoples convention. Judge Leith had to
make few remarks before voting, but
we are of the opinion, thai there were not
many sucked by his remarks, as butfew
