Butte record., 1854-09-02
TO THE POLLS

California will be called upon to say
whoshall represent them in the Congress
oil the U S. for the next two years, and
in the next Legislature Of this State. 1t
is necessary in order to be well repre-
sented, that there should be full and
fair exp ession Of the popular voice, and
every person can well afford TO spend
one day in the course of the year, for
for the purpose of exercising the ines
tim bic privilege of freemen. North
ern California has never furnished but
one representative in Congress. They
have now an opportunity to secure an
other by voting for the democratic nom
inees. To the polls then, fellow citi-
zens of Butte, and by supporting Dem
yer and Herbert, show that you are in
terested in the welfare of the State be-
yond the limits of San Francisco-that
you are opposed to the repeal of the Ne
braska measure-and are willing to test
the practicability of northern railroad
routes.
The Democracy of Butte County
should remember that it is the duty of
the next legislature to choose U. S.
Senator, whose term of Office will con-
tinue for the next six years. The DEM
ocratic convention for this county bv
resolutions unanimously adopted de-
manded that the next Senator be chosen
from the northern portion of the State
lhe candidates chosen at that conven-
ton cheerfully, acquiesced in the spirit
OF the resolutions, and if elected will
use all hon prable mems to secure this
act of justice to the north. Do the de-
mocracy OF this county desire to see
the next Senator chosen north IF San
Francisco, let them present a united
front to the enemy, and secure the elec-
ton of the democratic nominees. will
labor assidu usly to accomplish it. If
this county elects wings to the legisla-
ture. it will be declaration in favor of
southern whig for q. S. Senator. Is
there democrat ID the county who is
wiling to thus cast his vote and infu-
nee Ii any have been thus tempted,
We would advise them to pause, and
II influenced by personal preference, bu-
ry ii Tor the success of the national
democratic party.
Democrats who are disposed to trade
off one candi ate for the success of the
other, should bear in mind that they are
engaged in losing bargain, since by being
united both are certain to be elected.
be not deceived by the supposition that
whig will favor the election to the Sem
ate of the T. S. of a northern democrat.
They would not, if they could, and
could not if they would, since the nom.
lnees for that Office will be chosen in
party conventions Let such rememb r
then, that they have nothing to gain,
while they have everything to lose by
pursuing such course. Should this
county send a representative of each
party TO the next Legislature her infu.
ence upon this question would be neu-
tralized and lost, and all that the north
gained by laboring to keep of the election
last winter will be lost. Let the democ-
racy, then, remember that they must be
united to- conquer, and that, by aiding
IN the election of a whig to the legisla-
ture, they are aiding in the election of
whig U. S. Senator. To the polls, then,
fellow democrats of Butte County, and
by voting the straight, clean democratic
ticket, throw your influence in favor of
United States Senator from northern
California.
