The Council Bluffs nonpareil. [volume] (Council Bluffs [Iowa]) 1857-1867, 1859-10-01
ID, &, BLOONIER.

This gentleman was placed in nomination
by the Republicans Of Pottavattemie Coun-
ty, as their candidate for Representative.
Their choice could certain not have fallen
upon a man better qualified for the position,
as Mr.. BLooMER is 4 man of decided ability,
untiring energy, an uncompromsing Re-
publican, and most thoroughly devoted to
the interests of Pottawattamie County and
Western Iowa. Probably, no man in this
County, has labored more earnestly and
faithfully for the success of Republican
principles, and certainly no man in the
county, possesses in u greater degree the
qualifications necessary for the proper dis
charge of the duties of legislator, than
Mr.. BLooNER, hence the undivided support
of the Republicans should show the appre-
citation in which the man and his services are
held, by the party he in part represents in
thiscanvasS. This much is due Mr.. BLooMER,
by every party consideration that should
have weight among men battling for the
success of true and noble principles. Party
fcuds. and personal jcalousies, should not
influence single Republican to cast lis
vote against Mr.. BLooMER, and We have
every reason to believe they will not. But,
if there is II Republican in Pottawattamie
County, who believes that Mr.. BLoonER, is
not qualified for the o!ice-who doubts his
capability, honesty, or RepublicanIsm-it is
the right, it is the duty, of that Republican
to vote for some other man, who, in his
opinion, possesses the necessary qualiica-
tons for good legislator. Is there a Re-
publican in Pottawattamic County, who
believes that D. C. BLooMER is not qualified
to represent this County in the Legislative
IIallsof the State? No, not one. What is
the duty then: of every Republican,? Why,
to work and vote for d. &. BLooMER.
Though our candidate has been resident
Of this City for something more than four
years, owing to his close application to
business, and retired habits, he is compare
lively stranger to great ajo:ity of the
people of the County, residing without the
limits Of this City. To the people of Council
Bluffs, no word Of commenIation, from any
quarter, is necessary, for here, Mr.. BLooMEE
is known and honored Of all men but to
the voters outside of this City, it may not
be amiss to say a word or two in his behalf.
We shall do this, by giving an extract from
the Seneca Falls IN. W Courier. Speaking
Of the removal of Mr.. BLooMER to Ohio, the
Courier suys-"M Mr.. Il. possesses talents of
high order, has proved himself
to be useful and valuable citizen, and as
such, his departure from among US, excites
general feeling of regret. lie
has large and open heart, which throbs
with the noblest impulses of our nature,
and we can assure those with whom he is
about to mingle in the practical affairs of
life, that they will find him a true man in
all situations. We know him 'like book
and we most cheerfuly embrace this fitting
opportunity to say what We think Of him.
lie leaves behind him hosts Of rm-hcarted
friends, but we are confident he will have
as many in his new home, when he ha.
resided there as long Us he has here. 1t will
ever afford US the greatest pleasure to learn
that good fortune attends him.
