Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1862-02-06
.sMorse nnd More of IT,

Republican papers are saying they were
led into error by the Indiana State Jour
nal in charging Mr. Packard with denoun-
cling the war. but that it was another del
egate from Marshall. We have not seen a
single Republican paper that has had the
candor to state that the odious and unjus-
tifiable language was used by the delegate
to show his adherence of the resolutions
because they declared for sustaining the
war for the Union. and took that method
of protesting against them in opposition
to all the other delegates from Marshall
county. The Republican papers say the
convention was reasonable and refer to
that delegate to prove it. But they have
not honesty sufficient to give their readers
the facts.-Loganspon Pharos.
If the author of the 30 dious and uyus-
ti6a5ls language" referred to by the Pha
ros was dissatisfied with the resolutions for
the reason stated above, it only proves. as
we look at it, that he was hard to please.
The Pharos, it will be seen. admits the
language of the delegate from Marshall was
REASONABLE as we'll as ''odious and uwus-
f;faJle." We think so onrself, but do
not regard him as any worse SO far as that
matter is concerned than two others at least
of the delegation. who, no doubt. If they
understood the resolutions to squint at an
approval of the war. supported them from
motives of expediency alcne. Packard and
one other delegate. we have good authority
for saying. sympathise with the rebels as
deeply as does Mr.. Reeve. and all three
of them, if our information is reliable, and
we believe it is, would. under no circum-
stances fight against the South. TIE
South. in their estimation, is much less to
blame for the war than the North: and
such. from the language and spirit OF the
resolutions, mnst have been the sentiment
and feeling of large majority of the re-
cent SO called Democratic Convention.
Ifthe resolutions could possibly be con
strued into an approval of the war. the
Democrat of this place would have de-
nounced the Convention as Republican
assemblage. and the nominees been repudi-
ated by three fifths of the Marshall county
Democracy. Such is modern pro-slave-
ry. nigger-catching Democracy
The complaint the Pharos makes against
Republican papers above is not applicable
to us. as we published Its entire article on
the subject in our last. and again give it's
party the benefit of second quotation
from its columns on the subject. f
After the foregoing was in type Mr..
Reeve handed us the following communi-
cation in reply to the article we published
last week from the Pharos;
To the Editor Of the Marshsu County Republican.
