The Cadiz Democratic sentinel. [volume] (Cadiz, Ohio) 1854-1864, 1856-07-09
OuDOsit;On County Ticket,

Some Of the opposers of Know Nothingism
in this county boasted that they would see that
"Sam" didn't show his head on last Friday
But "Sam" was determined that he would
0rule the roost, and he did too as the sequel will
show.
We were told by gentlemen from different
parts of the county on that day, that not one
half of the townships had township meetings.
The delegates came to town generally uninstruc-
ted, AMI ready to vote for whoever wanted them.
We noticed particularly one case, A fellow
from one of the North western townships was
coming along the street, when he WAS met by
one of the leading Slm boys in Cadiz, when the
following conversation ensued.
Good morning, Sir. Are you the delegate
from - township"
eve had no meeting in our township, Mr..
- and concluded that we would come up and
act as delegates"
'tWho are you for for Auditor?'
II don't know. Any person that will suit rs
best"
"Kinsey is that MN. He is ons Of as and the
only genuine one that is running for that Of
fice"
"He shall receive our votes all the time then"
These two worthless had few more words
and then separated.
The followers of "Sam" spared no pains to
give the sign of the order to every delegate they
met; and when the sign was recognizel they
were told in positive terms that they mast vote
for Kinsey.
The Convention met after dinner with closet
doors in the jury room, and nominated the fol-
lowing ticket

Mr.. Kinsey is, to use his own language San
old silver grey Wing" and is member of the
Know Nothing organization. He is a ret~tt
merchant and has been clerking for several years
at McFadden's store. This new doctrine of
treeaom he knows nothing about, and we suppose
does not want to- There could have been worse
candidates taken out of the list and nominated
for Auditor than Kersey Kinsey
Mr. Croskey, their candidate for Commission
er, has we believe, been Democrat, until two
years past, when he joined that pool of corrup-
ton, Know Nothngism. He has adhered to
that organization ever since. He has generally
been considered an honest, upright man, but
what effect his new associations will have upon
him we cannot tell. 1t is an old proverb, and a
true one-'that evil communications corrupt
good manners" and it may be that it may be
that it will have that effect upon our friend
bCroskey. We trust, however, that it will not;
and that when Mr. 9. gets the soooI taken from
off his eyes, he will, like the pIodigal son. "re-
turn to his fathers house, and sin no more."-
He is too good man to be found in such COM
pany.
How the numerous disappointed offce-scekers
feel we know not; but we suppose they have
learned this lesson chat it is not every aspirant
that gets nominated,an that the best men have
to give way toinferior ones"
