Mn. EDIToR-The time having arrived when
political parties are marshalling their forces for
the summer campaign the people of this locality
contemplate with much pleasure the prospect of
our having for our standard bearer so sturdy and
unexceptionab!e man as John Netherlsnd in OPP
position TO the mis- called Democracy. We also
feel lively interest in perfecting ticket that
will advance the interests of our party, instead Of
forcing party 10 adva nee the interest of ndi-
Uidudls. Let us not place any men in the posi-
lion of candidates for positions they are not com
peteut TO fill, 1t behooves cur party TO scTutiniZe
vgiantly the moral aud political character of as
prants for the various positions, and see that no
man is put in nomination who is at all exec ptional
in personal pop ulurty, moral character, OF in re-
quisiie qualifications TO make an active aud ener-
geic canvass on the stump and in the valleys.
The PEG lie in this locality are anxious, in this
view, To present the claims of Their fellow citizen,
N. b, Dudley, as proper person to make the
canvass aud represent the count es of Davidson,
Robertson and Montgomery, in the next General
Assembly. To those who know Mr. Dudley il is
unnecessary to say word but TO our fellow
citizens, in parts OF the district remote from his
residence, we can freely say, trust him, aud your
cause will MT want for an able advocate. lie is
retired lawyer-a man of abiIity-resiuing at pre-.
sent on his farm. He is a good debater aud sue.
cessful eleCtonrerer. In fact, he is the man for
the times and for the people, This note is penned
without consulting Mr.. Dudley, aud It is not
&nowu mat he would accept the position. But
we, his fellow citizens, have too much confidence
in bis patriotism and public spirit, to believe he
will decline il the nomination should be rendered
him by the convention which is to meet on the
lith instant
need hardly add that have nothing to say in
dsparagenIent Of tho claims Of any pirant, H.,
indeed, any such character has an existence. As
u general thing, am opposed to all uspi-arts. |
still say, let the office seek the man. rather le,
the people seek the man to serve them. but le,
not the man refuse 10 serve the people, II such
service is not entirely out OF his power.
