The Bedford gazette. [volume] (Bedford, Pa.) 1805-current, 1855-09-21
OUR TICKET.

u We publish above the Democratic Iick-
ct selected by the regular County Meeting on
Monday evening of the Court week. It should 4
have appeared in our last issue, batwas neglec-
ted owing 10 circumstances 10 which we have
already alluded. The Ticket was chosen ~
bold, open, and honest manner, and contains
the names Of such men as every good cl,iztnn
our couaty can vote for, regardless OF what may
have heretofore been their political sentiments
The candidates for Assembly are sound, sensl-
bic men, and enjoy the fullest confidence of all
who know them Messrs. SMITH and BERN
HARD both stand pledged to go for the repeal
of the odlous Liquor Law OF last sesslon-there-
fore, every man who votes against them gives
bis endorsement TO the measure. We place
this fact plainly upon record so that noonem may
vote misunderstanding Asthe people deter
mine we are satisfied.
The candidate for Treasurer, ISAAC MENGEL,
Esq, is, perhaps, among the oldest citizens IN
Bedford County. He has paid his full share OF
taxes, and has never asked the people for an
Office. Even now, his nomination is not Of bis
asking. 1t was conferred upon him by the vol
untary action of The Democracy without par
tice of solicitation on his part. The Office seeks
him, and not hmthe office, and this can be truth
fully said Of every man on the Democratic Tick
ct. Mr.. M. is as well qualified as any man in
the county to discharge the duties Of Treasurer,
and be lives in decidedly the most eligible and
convenient place in the Borough-and, having
no other business to engage his attention. The
taxpayers coald4always have the fullest and
freest access to the Records Of this Department
We do think that such man, with reputation
entirely unspotted, can fail 10 command the
confidence Of a majority ofthe votes Of Bedford
County.
The candidate for Commissioner, THoMAs w.
HoRToN, Esq, is also sound and reliable bus-
ness man, and would discharge the duties OF
the trust for which he has been nominated to
the entire satisfaction of the taxpayers. Afa-
bic and corteous in his demeanor, he has always
appeared to be agfeat favorite with the people,
especially those who know him best.
A more honest, upright, and sterling citizen
than HENRY VERT, Esq, of Cumberland Val
lev, who is the candidate for Poor Director,
was never presented for the suifrages of the ci-
tizens of Bedford County. He is model man,
and so considered by all his neighbors.
For Auditor, EDwARD PEARSON, Esq, is well
known as one OF the best writers as we'll as one
OF the best accountants who has ever occupied
this highly responsible station.
HgNRY TAYLOR, Esq, the candidate for Coro-
nor, is we'll calculated TO discharge its important
duties, and, should any accident occur TO the
Sheriff, would fill the post with honor TO him
self and advantage to the best interests of the
people. G
Now, Democrats and Freemen Of Bedford
County, you who love open, fair, and manly
dealing, is not this Ticket worthy your serious,
active and generous exertion? Let every man
90 to work as il he felt that the responsibility
rested upon himselfalone, and the result cannot
be doubtful. Hundreds dfgood honest Demo-
Gratis as we'll as good honest Whigs, who were
last year led either to join or vote with the dan
gerous Order of Know Nothings, from mista-
ken notions, viii go with them no longer-and
we most sincerely trust that every man who
desires to stand before the world as FREE
MAN, will exhibit the fact by fearlessy vo-
ting the Democratic Ticket as presented above
