How names were Obtained.

DR.. Paddock we understand, has the names of
some two hundred persons asking him TO be a
candidate for Senator. A respectable gentleman
informed US, that the father of the Doctor call
cd on him for his signature, and urged as rea-
son TO induce him To sign it, that the City inten-
ded to spring the loan question on the country
and it was necessary to have DIR. Paddock at
Madison to defeat it. we hear the same stories
from other towns, and it viii account to some cx-
tent for the size at the Doctors call.
We take pleasure in assuring our coun-
try friends that the City entertains designs of
any kind against the country, except of peace
and good will The city feels in her new life
and awakening business. the benefit of amicab!e
relations with the country and knows that to
maintain such relationsis worth more to her than
all the loan laws or legislative devices which can
he invented. No man from the city will be found
foolish enough to ever raise suicidal hand TO
disturb existing relations; and we are sure there
is no person in the city but will regret that any
person in the country, should thus needlessly at
tempt TO awaken Old aninIosities by ascribing TO
the city designs which not man in it entertains
There is no man running for the Senate in this
city who i'll our opinion, has not sense enough
to know that any law discriminating against the
country will be even worse for the city. Let the
country join hands with the city in efforts to
maintain this good feeling, and we promise that
the city will be the last to disturb it.

We call attention to the card in another column
signed by the city delegates to the late county
Senatorial Convention IT ought TO and we pre-
sumo will, put an end to the stories so industr-
ousy circulated of collision and arrangement
between the candidate selected aud the delegates.
1t strikes US the public must perceive that the
person made candidate was made so from no
wish or desire of his own, but simply accepted
the nomination, because being rendered by the
convention, he supposed the convention knew
best what the cause required. And the public
pcrceiving this, the candidate hopes that when
they see his name on the ticket, they will bear it
in mind and let it exercise its natural and pro-
per influence.
We wish to add further, not candidate, but
rs an editor and private citizen, that no polit-
cal convention with which we were ever acquain-
ted was more fairly conducted than this one.
We never saw enc III which less outsile infu-
cncc less caucUsing and log-roling were brought
70 bear and used, than on this occasion. The de-
legates had the matter pretty much TO themselves
and we are sure did what they thought vas besl
under the circumstances.
We have simply this to add if there is not re-
publican strength sufficient in the county TO sus-
tain the action of n convention rs fairly condue-
ted as was this one, ali attempts to maintain a
republican organization in this county may as
wcllbe abandoned.

nr Paddock a Candidate.

1t is. we suppose, generally understood, that
DIR. Paddock has procured himself to be called
out az a candidate for Senator, and designs TO
run. This is free country and this is right
DIR. p. or any other man has, and we have no
disposition to deny it in any degree or make the
least complaint about it.
The Republican voters of the county however
are a party concerned, and it becomes our duty
to state the facts as they exist.
DIR. Paddock Was present at the Republican
nominating convention. lie stated to US and
others that he was indifferent to the nomna-
tion-that he had no aesire partGuiaily 10 De d
candidate-that he desired only the nomination
of good man and would cheertully abide by the
decision of the Convention. The convention
made its choice, and in so doing acted IS fairly
and as free from all outside influence as ever a
convention did in the world, which every candid
and unpreiudiced person will admit. a. ). dod-
der, of Salem, a personal friend and delegate Ia
yorablc to DIR. Paddock, made motion after the
nomination was made that it be declared unanl-
nous, which was adopted with but two dissent
ing voices Dr. Paddock declared to us person
aliy and TO Others that he was satisfied with the
result and would support the nominee, and the
convention adjourned with no manifestation OF
dissatisfaction, nor no word OF suspicion OF col
fusion, or management, or fraud on the part OF
any person. These are the simple facts OF the
case.
We have nothing to say of the men or infuen-
ces at the bottom OF DIR. Paddocks subsequent
course Suffice it to say, that so far as this city
is concerned. it is matter OF common knowledge
that they are and have been the worst enemies
of our cause, and with them the desire is simply
to defeat that cause.
Last fall we supported DIR. Paddock cheerful
ly, warmly, and zealously. We labored with
others to remove all obstacles from his path to
success, and when he triumphed, rcioiced i'll his
triumph. We ask no favors at his hands person
aly-sltould he succeed in defeating US, it will
be no personal calamity, but We regret his ingra-
titude to the cause which has treated him ge-
nerously, and regret that by thus confirming the
worst things his enemies have heretofore asser
ted of him, he has covered his friends with con-
fusion.
1t rests with the Republican voters to dispose
of this matter at their pleasure. If the petty am
billions and disappointments OF weak minded
men, arc to defeat our organization and all the
objects of that organization, now perhaps, is as
good time to know it as ever. But we have a
confidence that there is common sense, back
bone in the Republican party, that can carry it
safely through such dangers, and leave it to grow
and strengthen itself for the more important tri-
ais approaching.

The Rural Districts.

We wish to urge once more upon our repubi-
can brethren of the rural districts the necessity
and Importance of their attending the polls and
voting on election day. The result of the cleo
ton we conceive depends entirely upon whether
the vote of the state full. If the people of the
rural districts turn out in their strength we are
sure of republican victory-if they remain at
home the cause is lost. Reader-you whose eye
is now upon this paragraph-this is intended for
YOU. Make up your mind at once, upon read
ing it, that no circumstance, unless entirely in
surmountahle, shall prevent you from depositing
your vote on election day. And in addition to
this, use your influence to have your neighbors
attend also. Turn out yourself-get out the vote
be up aud doing. IN this way and this alone,
can you do your share towards redeening the
state from misrule, and the nation from the per-
nieious influences which now govern il.
Tribune and telegraph. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1855-1856, 1855-11-01

We assure them then, that there is not particle
of ground reason for the assertions of the Bars
tow press in this respect. It is a fact beyond
dispute that leading Know Nothings are active
in the support of Barstow, and the evidences are
just as full and clear of the connection of the
Hunker Democracy with the order, as they are
Of the connection of our side The truth is, 1t is
a mere humbug and bugbear. No attempt is be-
ing made and no attempt ever will be made to
interfere in any wise with the present rights and
privileges of naturalized voters The attempt OF
the Barstow press ami party is an insult to the
understanding Of our naturalized voters, tor IT
is intended for no other purpose or object than
to deceive them into the support of men and mea-
sures which they would otherwise abhor and op-
pose. We feel a confidence that they viii not al
low themselves to be thus deceived.
But as we said, this seems to be the whole ro-
lance of the Barstow party for success. We
have stated fairly what win be the effect, both in
national and state matters of the success of that
party, and il remains for voters, upon careful
review OF the whole matter, to decide whether
they wish such influences to prevail.

bunker Honesty.

The Madison Argus garbles from an article OF
ours so as to entirely Change its meaning, and
then calls it, backing down, by us. The follow
ing is the extract it makes:
I'VE do not even claim that there was any
thing illegal in the conduct of the commissioners
in selling or offering the lands, and consequently
that any blame or suspicion of wrong attaches to
them or any other purchaser
This is very ingeniously done. Our article al
luded TO lands sold to certain individuals here,
and our complaint was not that the commission
crs had violated any law, but had shockingly
abused a discretion which was entrusted to them.
The word =" them in the extract seems to allude
to the commissioners" and that is the idea the
Argus intended TO convey. In our article it al.
luded to the men here WHO purchased the lands

Convention, learn thatrcports are being circulas
ted through the county, charging that the nomi.
nation OF c. L. SHoLEs for the Office of Senator,
was procured by unfair and pre-concerted ma
nagement, deem it our duty to correct statements
which are unjust to ourselves, as well as to Mr..
Sholes.
We state distinctly that we, nor either of us,
held any conversation with Mr.. Sholes previous
to the above mentioned convention, either direct
ly or indirectly, in reference to his being can
didate TOR Senator any other Office this fall !;
nor had any person spoken TO US in respect to
nominating Mr.. Sholes prior to the Convention;
nor had we any consultation, nor did word pass
between MS before the convention or at the con-
vention, in respect to the nomination of Mr..
Sholes; nor do we believe that Mr.. Shoies sought,
expected, or desired the nomination for Senator.

Look out for Frauds.

We do not know that any person contemplatcs
manufacturing any falschoods or perpetrating
any frauds on the eve OF the approaching election
But we know there are several desperate politi-
clans in midst who will stop at nothing which
promises success. 1t win do no harm then for
voters to be watehful and not too credulous.
These nlonstrous stories started on the eve OF
an election are generally made to order and for
the purposes Of deception, and the safest plan
will be 10 turn deaf carto them
The Republican candidates for office in this To-
calitv are old settlers, whose characters in all re-
spccts are well known TO nearly every person III
their respective districts. While we are by no
means disposed to claim nfaIlibility for them, we
believe it will not be presumptous in us to say,
that as the world judges, their characters arc
without a stain This should be sufficient to
protcc. them against SANDERS whether arising
from the ambitions Of rival candidates or the ma
Lightly of personal enemies.
And we believe the whole Republican State
Ticket is composed Of worthy and estimabic men,
and we trust no republican voter at this late
hour of the canvass, will be deceived by any
stories which may be originated by their enemies

The bunker Candidate for Senator.

1t is, we believe, generally understood, that
the Thinkers viii make no formal nomination for
Senator, but will rally on I. W. WEBSTER. This
is as wc expected and predicted, and so expect
ing some weeks since we felt it duty to eau
ton the republicans as to the game that was be-
ing played. Had we expected at the time TO
be candidate i'll opposition to Mr.. w, we might
perhaps have preferred TO remain silent notwith-
standing the necessity to speak out which the
cause imposed. And now We prefer TO remain
silent, rather than incur the suspicion that we
entertain any personal hostility to Mr.. Webster.
Our associate, over his own signature and on
his own responsibility, has freed his mind in an
other column on the subject, but for ourself, we
arc content TO trust the matter to the dscrmina-
ton of those concerned.

can nominee for Senator. by asserting that the
