The Cadiz sentinel. [volume] (Cadiz, Ohio) 1864-1911, 1864-09-14

OUR neighbar Of the .Ss7stfayt' need not
trouble himself about Lieut.. Mccoy. The
people will see that he is elected BY ''rou-
sing majority The public, perhaps would
like 10 know whefe Sir Wright, the lsocoio-
60 candidate for Auditor. was, while Mr.
Nrtny was ont serving his country on the
tented hcm2 We answer, he was at home,
In his comfortable school room, teaching
the Young idea how 20 shoot; and, perhaps
some pseple would would ike 10 know, also,
whether Mr.. Wright II not young, able
bodied man? We answer that he i. Why
then did he not enter the service like WIN.
Fl. McCOyl Because, we suppose, he is op-
posed to The war, and not disposed to meet
his Southern brethren in battle-array. Such
Icing the case, it il not probable thot loyal
peOple will deem it their duty to elevate
him to an important county oifics.-RG7ib-
ien.
nA-We give the above as n specimen Of
demagognery. Our neighbor says that the
''prorle" viii elect Mccoy by a ruusing ma
jority, Nh McCoy was before the people
of the Republican party at their primary
eleetion, and only got about % votes out OF
100 cast. Wasn't that 'rousng'' vote?-
Why don't the Cadiz Republican explain to
the Republicans of the county how Mccoy
got the nomination, when they, who do the
voting, had nominated Knox at the primary
election If they are TO have no voice in
the nomination they are determined to have
voice" in the ''rousing' vote. The ''peo-
pie had nothing to do wirh the nomination
of Mccoy, and those who have any sense
of honor will not support him.
The Republican recalls Mccoy from the
battlefield, and now has it in the s.tented'
field "Oh shame, where is thy blushl =
McCoy drew Lieutenant pay and was al
home more than half the time, not teach,
ing young ideas how to shoot, nor shoot
ing" at the rebels, but robbing the Govern
'mept of the time for which he got pay, and
cheating his comrades who were doing his
work out of deserved promotion. All true
soldiers hate the man given to such low
cunning Mccoy confesses now that his
health is as good as it was when he first en-
tered the army. So any excuse on account
Of health is played out" He would have
been loafng at home and drawing his pay
yet, no doubt, if it had not been 'hintcd'
very strong that he should resign Nc,
Coy never smelt hostile powder, for, as the
Republican POLITICALLY expresses it, "he il
not disposed to meet his Southern brethren
in battle array d"
But the Republican say Mr.. Wright Wa:
teaching the young idea how to shoot" at
the time Mccoy was swindling the govern.
ment by drawing pay for services he never
performed, and cheating his comrades, who
performed his duties, out Of deserved pro
motion. This same gallant gentleman o
the tented field was striving constantly
for a commission in the Invalid Corps, sc
that he might have big pay and venothins
to do.
But the Republican says Wright is {
peace man and will not 60 to war How
many young, ablc-bodied ocar men are there
in Harrison county who are not on the
tented ield?" How many such meet ii
your Loyal Leagues, and sing Justify
1--WE will fill the broken ranks of our bro
thers gone before"
who arc not in the army, and who woult
give their last dollar to keep from going ?
How many, neighbor? Mr.. Wright is al
older man than three -fourths of them.
The trickery and deception of the Repub
lican leaders is all done for Bingham, and
the people will rebuke them at the polls.
