Oroville daily Butte record., 1857-07-06


their nominations by their political enemies9
Lewis has not only adopted the Republican
paper of this county as his organ, but he has
compelled democrats, contrary to theirex-
pressed wishes, to do their legal advertising
in his Republican organ-thus compelling
Democrats to sustain paper that has ever
opposed democratic principles and the dem.
ocratic party. He has compelled Demo.
Gratis, by his unscrupulous exercise of arbi-
trary power. TO sustain the only paper in the
State that denounced the truly national
democratic doctrines enuncated ia Presi
dent Buchanan's inaugural message. Do
the Democracy of Butte desire to endorse
such course, and to sustain the only paper
in California that assailed the Democracy
of President Buchanan.
To know how ]. Z N. Lewis has repudia.
ted Democratic principles and ussges, and
became the pillar of strength to the Repub.
lcan organization of the county, it is only
necessary that the representatives of Democ-
racy here assembled. should read the fol-
lowing copies of rules which he has spread
upon the records of his courts:

Here is what the Democracy of Oroville
say of J E. N. Lewis organ. The resou-
tion was passed unanimously at large and
enthusiastic meeting of the democracy, prior
to our municipal election:
Resoiped, That recognize in the cour'e pursued
by the Daily Month (ahforpim.' in the support Of
the NEW POLITICAL ORGANIZATIONS, called the
"PEOPLE's Parry all TINT is iRdepsndeat IN FAVOR
OF WHtGGEHY, BLACK RrPUBLIcA>IsM AND Know
NoTHINGIsM. and everything That is oppospd to the
success Of the Democratic party and the urtherence
of its great principles.
We thus furnish the evidence of J. E. N.
Lewis treache,y to Democratic usages, and
his efforts to build up and sustain the oppo.
siton organization Of the county, and trust
that this convention will refuse his appica-
tion to become their nominee for a position
| where he can do much to break down and
destroy the Democratic party of the county
The Record has ever advocated the suc-
cess of Democratic principles, to the best of
its Editors ability, from conviction of
their justness honestly and fairly enter.
tained-have never presented ourselves be-
fore your conventions for official position,
nor sought to control your nominations
but have been content to labor ut our daily
avocation, for the support of those depend.
ent upon our exer,ious. and proud to be the
humble advocate of Democratic principles,
and to assist in the triumph of Democrats.
J.E N. Lewis has repudiated US as anti. Dem.
ocratic, and found congenial democracy in a
Black Republican paper! HIS nomination
by Democratic Convention is our repuda-
ton. Even in this extremity, gentlemen,
we would not seek to forestall your honest
convictions Of duty to your party and your
principles. Should this calamity beial US,
and should the Democratic convention join
with Lewis in driving us from the ranks of
the party. and place it beyond our power to
suppert YOUR action, we can only regret that
the psrty has become subservient to un-
principled schemers. and hoping for better
aays, shall still cling to the democratic
filth, "as the mariner clings to the last
plank. when night and the tempest closeth
him"
