- Chairman OF the " WOOD county lnlOn NcnlThI
Committee" II is unnecessary to state that the
genuine Union cali for this county was issued four
weeks since, and signed by George laskcy, Chair
man of the oniy recognized Union Central Commit
tee Of Wood County. The Union Convention, which
is to meet in pursuance to that CALL will be held at
Bowling Green, on Tuesday, the 9th day of june
next. Let every Union man throughout the county
remember this, and not be deceived by any pre-
tended calls cmanatng from individuals or cliqucs.
In support Of this assumed "call" i" issued one
week since, the sheet or circular above referred to
contains nm article headed "Tho Two Calls
which for brazcn oilrontory, false assumption, md
mhlushng pcryorsion of facts, well known to cv-
cry intelligent man throughout the county, we have
never scon cqualcd certainly never surpassed
Tho article in question opens by making state
mont which is known to be false, and can only have
originated from spirit at once malignant and sell
hshly partizan in ts nature. II meany charges
the regular Union call with prescribing all those
who failed to vote for Ashley" or who did not
vote rs Mr.. Inskcy did" Every intelligent reader,
who has examined the regular Union call, knows
this assertion to be false. That call proscribcs no
one, except those who sympathi1c with the enemies
of the Government. ltis isaued to all Union men
extends to nll who have at hsart the welfare of
their country. This is its language
GAN Republicans and Unconditional Union Dem
ocratS, who supported the regular Union n0m'na-
tinns last fall and this Spring all who are for the
Government without any us or bHts who are op-
posed to foreign intervention, 10 compromise with
the rebels and are for vigorous prosecution ot
the war until the cause of the Union triumphs arc
earnestly invited To attend
Those who did not support the State Union
ticket last fall, it docs emphntically exclude the
Vallnndigham faction, sclfstylmg themselves
the Democratic party" This Nallandgham wing
Of the Democratic party joined hands with the
clique, who have issued this call, and voted for
Mr.. Waite in preference 70 therown candidate, Mr..
Phelps. for the avowcd purpose Of defeating the
election of Mr. Ashley. But did this Democratic
party vote with tho Republican Waite men ON the
State Union tickct2 Not n bit Off Figures are
stubborn things and they relate plain, unNar-
nished tale. In Wood County, Mr.. Waite receive l
last fall, l,39l votes Mr.. Phelps, the Democratic
candidate received but jj votes Armstrong and
CIitchtcld, on the Democratic state ticket both
notorious Coppcrhcads received 40 votes cacli.
From this subtract tho IS Democratic vutos east
for Phelps, and thrrI remain go votes given for
Waite which were also cast for tho Democratic
State ticket This is the result oi the "union for
the sake of the Union" movement Of last fall. This
mongrc Union is what Mr, Ashley denounced and
what every loyal man will continue 10 dcnounce,
with might and main. A union with men who
sympathilo with Nallandghnm, md who cast
their votes for Armstrong and Critchield, is too
big pill tor Us To swallow. Armstrong is known
to be rampant rcbol sympathIlcr and u violent
and bitter opponent of the Administration and cv-
cry measure it has put forth to crush the rebellion.
CritchNcld il will be remembered, last Janurry,
made n speech Ia Columbus, at supper in which
hc bclicd the people Of the North and gave cNpres
sion to the wish of his own heart, by saying that
"morc than one half the North would rather see
JeT Davis President at Washington than Abraham
Lincoln" God forbid that We should over form
alliance with those who support such men and
measures
| To the author of tho article in question filed as
YOU are with hsome braggadoclo, and i'll disguised
| d,magogrcism- would just say that the "min
/ ions" aud satellites" of Mr.. Ashley as you s'
councouSiy oharAc,eria' his supporter, are thj
true Union party the unconditional Union s,rcugtl
OF this county and You will find that they vii
never sell themselves body and brooches to tn
Democratic party, as the clique you represent ha
heretofore done. 1t is woll known To every mtclli
gent Union voter in this county that tho protcsso
Union Central Committee, she Chairman ofwhou
has signed this latter call is not the genuine am
regularly Constituted Union Committee, but spran
from tactous opposition last fail, and made tn
support of Mr.. Waite the test of II mans Unio
principles.
In closing the article Ne have In review, In
autnhr says the Committee masking this call req
resent no party, nor are they the mere tools of
dsmagoguc." We agree with the writer in thi
; respect they are not the tools of deuagoguc io
the simple reason they are dcmagogucs themsclve
aud are seeking to make tools orhoncst men.
