We would call the attention Of Democratic
and Conservative voters OF the county TO Tic
notice in this weeks publication for certain
Political Conventions"
IL is highly important hat all the townships
Of this county should be fully represented in
each Of these Conventions.
The prospect for the success Of q part. II
not the whole, Of the Democratic ticket this
fall is quite encouraging.
We have Only to submit TO the honest voters
n ticket composed Of the RICH, kind of men.
and then rally with oil our strength, n9d sue
cess will crown our efforts. Let the township
meetings send us delegates their best men, and
let them council together Tor the good Of the
country. The fall We have a Congressman
a Judge OF the Common Pleas Court, and q
county ticket composed Of the most important
o0ices 10 elect, md all true Union men and
tax Payers arc interested in the result. With
The Republican party longer in power, We
have no hope for union harmony and peace :
no expectation Of economy, reform, or q re-
duction Of the heavy burtbons now imposed
upon The laboring aud producing CLASSES Of
the country.
The country needs unity aud peace. This
impoi tant position, as o nation aud people,
cannot be consumated satisfactorily unless the
people arc Nigilant to their interests ond
rights. The present Congress, in their le6is-
la;ion and general conduct, have been n dis
grace 10 the country. A change for the bet,
ter can certainly be made in this department
Of the Government. They seem to ignore the
Interests and rights Of the wtite, and legislatc
exclusively fer the benefit Of the African race.
II the "boys in blue" who fought down the
rebellion, to restore tho Union and Constitu-
tion and the supremacy o. law aud order, have
any interests 10 be attended TO in Congress
they arc put of until the negro is heard and
attended 10.
The President has been striving to recon
struct and restore the Union on fair aud just
basis, but he has been met in and out Of Cons
gress by the most viudietivc and unfair oppo-
sition-threals Of assassination, impeachment
and civil war have been made by the more
reckless OF The Radicals against the President
and the country.
We call upon all men 10 rally TO the rescue
of the country, ond drive from power aud
place-by the Democratic ballot-those who
disregard the interests and the rights Of the
white man.
The Conservative. (M'connelsville, Ohio) 1866-1871, 1866-07-27

The time has conc when an earnest and patriotic

All voters, without distinction of party, who he.
