BEWARE!

There is no gainsaying the fact that ABRAHAM
LINCOLN is the choice of four fifths of the people
of Kansas. No opportunity has been missed by
them to manifest such preference. In the work
shop, the Office, the stcre-room, and even in the
home circle are his claims urged by the humblest
citizen. The unanimity of, and the interest
manifested by, all classes in his behalf, and the
matter of President making, is indeed astonish-
ing. and is happy omen of our Country's future.
Within our knowledge, the people spare no pains
which light advance his interests. No caucus
or meeting is neglected by them, which has in
the least any bearing upon the Presidential cam
paign.
The County Convention, which meets to-day,
will manifest this choice of our people in strong
terms. So far as We know, by the precinct del
egates already chosen-and the call was the most
liberal ever issued-none but an unconditional
Lincoln man will represent Davis County in the
State Convention to be held at Topeka next
Thursday. The people have spoken 80 emphat-
ically that we have at times ridiculed the fears
cf some that the Fraudites would, by political
ledgermaiD, throw the delegation of The State to
the Baltimore Convention in favor of some other
man. We confess that within the past week
indications point as though such an attempt
would be made by them. And We would not
neglect to call the attention If the people, and
their delegates in Convention, to the facts.
If such be not the case, we ole at loss to
know why men whonever indorsed single act
Of LIScoLN's. and who have it not in their hearts
10 do SO, should wire-work and button. hole for
days previous to the meeting of LINCOLN caucus
with view Of controlling it. Such was the
action of the Fraudites in this place during the
past week. Failing in this, their conversation
the next day was strongly in the interest of
Fremont. Their known character satisfies every
one that they have not particle Of sympathy
for Fremont, and hence the inference that some
political clap trap is about to be sprung upon the
people by the Carney Pomeroy strikers.
We wonld again urge the people to be watch
full. Men who would assail your dearest right
as have these Fraudites, will not scruple at any
thing. To be betrayed is all that You can ex-
Pect Of them. Watch then until your choice is
ratified in Convention.
