The following was received in answer
thereto: --- fr--s-..
To the Republican Central Committee OF
HydndoKe county,
sidered your proposition to hold a joint
Convention for the purpose of making
arrangements for the purpose of nomina-
ting Union Ticket, irrespective of party,
&c.
We will state in reply that we are no,
authorized to make any such arrange
ment. no such power having been dele
gated to US.
The Democratic party of Wrandot,
County has ever been, and still is, sin
favor Of the unconditional Union of the
States, and OF the mantanance of the
National Government, and they are in
favor of the vigorous prosecution Of the
war; so long as it is necessary, for that
purpose, but for no other. Whenever
that end can be honorably attained by
peaccable measures, We believe the Dem.
ocratic party stands ready to adopt such
measures, hence We are unwilling to
commit ourselves or the party to the
continued" and intel minablc prosecution
of the war when the necessity for it has
ceased to exist, or when it shall become
.ubver,ive Of the constitutional Al rights OF
any of the people of the several States.
In our opinion it would be totally in
consistent with the present feelings or
past history of the Democratic party,
whi.h has always been in favor of "the
Union, and the enforcement Of the laws
to unite with a party which had its con-
ception in the minds Of those who de-
nounce the Constitution as "a covenant
with he'll. and league with the deviI;''
a party which has paraded the country
with banner bearing but sixteen stars,
unblushingly proclaiming that they were
willing to "lel The Union slidc;" party
which has repeatedly and persistenlly op-
of some Of the lsws.
We have already appointed primary
meetings Of the Democracy for the pur-
pose of nominating ticket, and have in
vited all other Union men who are will
ling to co-opperate with US to participate
in said meetings. The ticket thus to be
nominated will be unconditional Union
ticket" and we expect it to receive the
support of all true Union men.
For these and sundry other reasons. We
respectfully decline to accept your propo
sitioIs.
Yours with due respect,
PETER b. BEIDLER.
