Daily Iowa State Democrat. [volume] (Davenport, Iowa) 1856-1859, 1858-09-08
The Times on the Clintonian

The infant Times has finally discov-
cred that some three weeks since, the
Dewitt Clintonian hauled down the
coIors of John F. Dillon, and substltu-
ted the uame Judge Bennett, as its
candidate for Judge. Accordingly on
the receipt of the news it came out in
its issue Of yesterday, expressing its
surprise and making some very severe
comments upon the very extraordinary
course of the republican organ Of Gin
ton county. As we before remarked
on the occasion, when the Gazette in
timated that its brother republican
quill drivers in Clinton county were
great rascals, we are prepared to en-
doIse and repeat all remarks savoring
SO strongly Of truth.
The Times, however, following in
the track of its older republican CO.
temporaries in the District, and with a
sagacity much beyond its years, very
carefully avoids mentioning the fact
that the course of the Clintonian was
changed under the force of public SEN
timent In the republican party of Gin
ton county.
That the Uintenion has been out
rageously inconsistent, to prove which
seems to be the only object Of the
Times, we will not pretend to deny
but that fact, when it is understood
that the Inconsistency was forced, in
stead of adding to the chances Of Mr..
Dillon, is likely to exercise a strong
influence for Judge Bennett.
The Times had better adopt the
course Of that more experienced SER
want Of the marble Bank, the Gazette,
and keep as quiet as possible about the
whole proceedings in Clinton county
in connection with the nomination of
Mr.. Dillon.
Depend upon it, neighbor, the more
you stir up those matters, the more
diaagreeable will they become to your
candidate.
1t would be far better to conine its
attention entirely to the subject of in
crcasing the salaries Of clergymen, and
other matters Of like ponderous politi-
cal import.
Daily Iowa State Democrat. [volume] (Davenport, Iowa) 1856-1859, 1858-09-08
Post-Omce Pros tuition.

The Upton I'D pertiser, republican
organ Of Cedar county, sustains the
republican Post Master at Cedar Poet
Office, in his prostitution of his posi-
ton to the opening of newspapers and
inserting abolition documents in them
1t claims that he was perfectly justified
in his violation of the sanctity Of the
mails, and says in clarifying manner !:
ave don't suppose the Democrat
wonld like it; such speeches will not
help their cause anywhere. We have
heard it suggested that the post mas
ter saw that there was nothing rcada-
BILE in the Democrat, and gave out with
it copy Of the speech to make it
worthy Of perusal."
Decency and morality must indeed
be at . low ebb among the republicans
OF Cedar county, when they not only
violate trusts which they hold only by
the magnanimity Of the democratic
party, but also parade their disgrace a.
something to be proud Of, and glorify
in their shame.

rage. We also believe that this course
will be adopted BY the National Ad-
ministrstion.
In advocating the adoption Of the
Lecompton Constitution BY Congress,
We assumed among other arguments,
the position that the course was advis-
able, as matter Of policy, to take the
Kansas question from the arena of ma
tional politics and confine it where il
belonged, within the limits Of the Ter
ritory. We believed that, inasmuch a
the Constitution could be Immediately
altered, If obnoxious to the people, it
was therefore advisable, for the pur-
pose Of settling once and forever the
dangerous question, to admit her under
the Lecompton Constitution.
From this position we have never
varied and standing upon it we shall
demand the admission of the Territory
under the first properly framed Consti-
tuition which presents itself.
To take or advocate any other
course would be but to keep the vexa-
tious question alive, and give the lie
to our protested desire for the settle
ment of the Kansas agitation.
How any one, knowing the grounds
upon which we supported the policy
of the Administration, could honestly
ASSUME for one instant that we held
any other opinion, Is to Us most I'M
accountable mystery.
1t is diffiult to understand how any
other policy could be adopted. Kan
sas with free Constitution knocking
at the door of the Union for addmiss-
ion is entitled to the same, and not less
rights than if she came with Consti-
tuition providing for Slavery,
1t seems, to US, utterly impossible
that any other view of the matter can
be taken.
