The County Convention.

Let tho Republicans of Wood county not for
get the meeting Mt the Court House Oh the 9Th
proximo. These primary meetings are of the ut
most importance to political organizations, and
should be well attended by the people, otherwise
a lew have control of matters, and the tendency
OF this is corruptiug
1t is also well for the members of party to
have general understanding us to the policy to be
pursued in a campaign, and thus prevent that
clashing of action which has so often let into pow
or those whose sentiments and mode of doing bu
sneSs we could in nowise sanction.
County political organizations are the founda-
ton upon which rest State and National parties
and while harmony and un earnest devotion to cor
rect principles exist in them, success must attend
fhe efforts of their friends. One false step-one
imprudcnt act-the adoption of one wrong senti
ment-may ruin the labors of years and blight the
prospects of the most cherished principles, for a
time at least.
Too much attention. therefore, cannot be given
to th,sc primary conventions, Evcry,,corruptng in,
tlucnce--overy blightng intrigue aud personal at
tempt to disregard the plain wishes of the people

far better that one man should be disappointed
than whole party distracted and crippled.
We do not throw out these suggestions because
we believe any discorIunt elements exist in the
Republican ranks of Wood county, but merely
for the purpose OF putting our friends on their
guard in time to prevent such STATE of affairs.
No doubt the meeting of the sth will be spirited
and interesting. Hons. \. Cook, James Murray
and Others, will doubtless be in attendance to al-
dress the lrends.of freedom, and business demand.
ing the united action of friends throughout the
county will be transacted.

WANT Others Think.

The Toledo Blade thus alludcs to the recent
spread-caglc border ruffian resolutions OF the un-
terrified amagamationi;ts of Wood county:
The resolutions are choice specimens of DEM
ocratic rhetoric and Democratic patriotism
which cannot fail to call forth the highest enthus
aSm of the Border Rutiln rank and file.
The Democracy" OF Wood county recon-
mend the severance Of the State Treasury and the
Banks charge the abolition party of this State )"
with "prodigal expenditures of the public money"
and ROBBlNG THE STATE TREASURY /;
hold the Republicans to be "ignorant and reckless
of the public will exalt the great "principle
which supports our rights; = give passing nudge
to the "Shriekcrs for freedom :" and maintain the
great Democratic principle of self government,
which means we suppose, that the two thousand
Border Ruililn voters i'll Kansas shall dOmneer
over the people of that Territory without let or
hindrance. The following resolution is too rich
not to be quoted entire:
'Bl it resolved that we approve of the issues OF
the D,mocractc National Platform, aud proudly
point to the result in Kansas our complete usti-
hcation, and the non-fulfllmont of Abolition pro-
phccy concerning the same as our brightest crown
Of rejoicing, and feel proud to belong to the gIor.
GUS old democratic party that advocates the right
of sclfgovernment that carries the flag and keeps
stop to the music of the Uuion..,'
So the Democracy" Of Wood county declare
themselves proud of the scenes of lawlcssness and
blood which have followed the democratic poll
cy in Kansas. They are proud of the robberes.
house burnings, scalpings, judicial ou,rages, and
brutal murders which were the direct result of the
democratic policy in Kansas. The "democra-
cy' of Wood county are proud of the Border
Ruifian raids, of the principle of governing ter
ritory by Missouri inyasions, Of forcing govern
meut on people by armed bands of maraulers
and Of the great democratic principle that the mi,
nurity shall govern the majority. Truly, the dc-
mocracy" of Wood county are worthy TO be en-
roledn the ranks and to fight under the banner oil
