The ssDenocsacy az Oh Pettau,tt
.o-calied, met in ConJention = this city last
Saturday, and nominated the following gen-
tlemen for county officers:
For Judge SAMUEL ksErPxH.
SheriE-Wx. BAKEE-
Recorder & Tredsurer-H. ". HARGIs.
Cororer-W. L. BIGGs.
In commenting upon the qualifications OF
the nominees, the organ gets upon stills. and
the public is treated 10 a regular cavort-
ing blood and thunder harangue. The edit
or 80 his fock to understand that il they
dare IS think, act and vote contrary to the
decree of the Convention, they viii be SET
down, by the Democracy, of course, "as
wolves in sleeps clothing,' as Jndases who
have their reward in their pockets, and who
like their prototype, have the halter already
around their neeks for the purpose Of com
hitting their own political destrac'ion."-
Those who would be accounted among the
ssfai,hfuI," are expected to take due notice,
and govern themselves in accordance with
this edict. You are politely requested, and
authoritatireiy commanded not to ''sacrihee
good sound [''on the goose Democrat
for clever fellow" The organ also says
that if you don't want to fight '.you mast
adhere" to the Democratic party. As the
organ has proclaimed, it beheoVes the
''faithfut' to SO let il be done, OF else they
will force upon themselves 1.-THE neces-
cessisy of striking blow upon the plains,
when the war created by dlsunipnists shall
be raging in your midst..'' |
Just think of it, Democrats Just think
Of the fate that awaits YOU, should you dare
to exercise the right of a freeman-the
Union Will be compelled to slide, and you
neeessitated to .sstrike blow upon the
plains, with no opposing fore, and all be-
cause you disobeyed the mandate of those
who assumed the right Of Iictators, and in
whose hands, If We are to believe their as
sertions. are the ''issues of life and death.''
Take heed in time, ana ''save your bacon''
by voting and fighting for the Democratic
nominations of Pottawattamie county. Ii
YOU do this, as commanded, sold Pottawat-
tamie will send u her sister counties
throughout the State, the heart cheering
news that the gallant Democracy is trium-
umphant! and Black Republieanism pros
trate that no sympathiser with, alder or
abettor of, the Black Republican party has
been elected in this county" What Demo-
crat can resist such an appeal. We think we
see them, even now, in sour minds eye,'
marching up to the polls in solid phalanx,
and depositing their ballots, Inscribed with
the names of the ''faithfal'' to be reward
ed, while the surrounding bluffs echo back
the shout that "the gallant Democracy is
triumphant! and Black Repubacanism pros
! trate!' During the canvass, We would sug-
gest the following, as an appropriate song
for Democratic exercises:
We du believe with all our soul,
In the great Press Freedom,
To pint the people 10 the goal,
And IN The traces lead en-
We du believe in special ways
o. prayIn' an eonvartin';
The bread comes back In many days,
And butteTed tu, Tor sartin;
We praytu till enc busts
On wit The party chuses,
An ia Convartln public trusts
To very ptiyIt
I This doth cup with merces Ill,
This lays all thought of sin to rest
We don't believe IN princerpes,
But, 0, We du in interest.
In short we firmly du believe
In humbu6 generally,
For IT'S Thing perceive
| To hcv a solid valiy.
This beth your ilhfui Shepherds been:
In pastures sweet hp;h led 'e,D
