vention for this district met yesterday
in Wellsville and nominated by ac-
clamation DANIEL t. LAWSON Esq. ,
OF that place, as the Democratic can,
didate for Congress in this, the 18th
district.
Mr.. Lawson has been, for many
years one OF the leading business men
Of Wellsville, being in the wholesale
grocery line. He is q gentleman of
hne ability and Is a sound unfiinching
Democrat. Mr.. LAWSON will make a
vigorous canvass of the district and
our fIiends will generally have =
chance to hear him.
We shall give tho Official proceed
ings OF the convention next week
When the Stark delegates arrived in
Wellsville, at p. n. the convention
had been already organized for some
time, Mr. Trainer, OF SteubenvIlIe,
beng in the chair, and c. y. Allen
Esq. of Steubenville, secrS tary. The
convention adopted the rule of giving
to each election precinct one vote, and
not,ss heretofore, giving to each coun-
ty, as is done in State conventions, an
influence according to her Democratic
strength. The nomination OF Mr..
LAWSON being by reclamation no
vote by counties Vas taken and hence
the rule adopted Was Of no conse-
quence at this time. Under other cir
cumstances the Stark county delegs-
tion would have insisted upon her
fair and equitable representation as
has been adopted in all previous con-
ventions in this district.

A Soldiers Sentiments.

Ewing, in speech. gave utterance to
the following which should be the
sentiment of every true soldier in the
land. Said the gallant General:
II have been appealed to more than
q hundred times to support Grant, the
great soldier with whom fought for
the Union. 1t is because loved the
Onion enough to fight for it that /
shall vote against General Grant.
am not prepared to admit that Gen.
Grants statesmanship is as well es-
tablished. AS this great soldier had
accepted the leadership of a party
bent on the destruction OF the Govern
ment, he is not entitled to the respect
or support OF any man who ever wore
the Hblue." | ,,

! The better.
