Wyandot County Republican. [volume] (Upper Sandusky, Ohio) 1869-1903, 1872-07-25
More Rstifying.!

Major Sears closed, and the
democracy called "Long Tom"
to the stand.
Behold the Lion and the Lamb to-
gctherl BE it remembered that TOM
was once candidate for Collector, and
that majors brotl.cr-a good and true
Soldier-was then also candidate. Be
it remembered also, that to make his
brothers success doubly sure. and at
critical moment lii the tide of affairs,
the major wrote q letter to Washing
ton, (and remember he votes now for
Horace because he is ''lloncst,.) in which
he stated that Tom was detaultcr in
the sum of $500 to tic Government
This made Thomas wroth. and lie snarl-
cd little, but he got the Office, aud all
was well. Then he lost the Office again,
and all was not well again, and SO the
major and doubling Thomas concluded
to Ratify the nomination of the Demo =
Gratis made at Baltimore July 10th 8,
which they did on Saturday night, to-
gcthcr.
Now Thomas don't like to be called u
democrat! Oh, no, II am Republican
and they come to me",l Well, Thomas
wanted to be consistent, so he opened
by saying.
This is Strange Sight (Ycs, it was
too y The World probably has never
seen anything like it! We have come
here to night to oRatify .(and Thomas wan
ted to make the democrats ratify strong
ly) and now want every one who is in
favor of ratitying to say, "I"-(and the
same fellows this. l. land, now let us
ratify the Cincinnati Platform. Every
| one in favor of it say, 3" They did, and
then Thomas said, us before, "thats car
ried"! Then, to remove all doubts
Thomas mado them do more. 81 now
want all, who favor the nominees OF the
! Cincinnati Convention, to ratify them
| by saying L" They did. ThomIs, the
victorious, then proudly turned around,
and said '.Thats carried how can now
they get out of It?
| ,Tholaas was sound! he made them Rtt-
| ify Cincinnati not Baltimore and When
he had his planks all down, he stretched
forth his long arms and now 'horny
hands and blcst the children of "Jeiler-
sou" remember, reader, there are more
Jeilersons" than one, SONIC have the
afilx Davis. and then lie was ready to
Ratifyf He procoslcd thusly-:
Il rcjeice that in this country we
can vote us we please, without being
controlled by the cr;!ck CT the party
lash,"
Thomas, We always did that, sorry
that you have not until now!
Thomas ''moved upon his (imagincd)
evenings work" by the Old School
rOutc--went out on the military Road Il
Nepotism, and there turned to the left
until he reached "Gift" Town. agaii
turned to the left and landed a
Chappaquack for refreshments!
The whole secret of this matter is that
whenever n man receives for his sarvi-
ces ten times what they are worth, OF
if he thinks he should have thus recciv-
el or Is cut Off while receiving, and tha
some other road may lead to such re-
suits, even by way of Chappaquack,t that
man is about Spoiled! Americans are af
ter fame and dollars, and it makes many
wise men fools, and many fools wise II
their own conceit!
Major Sears said. while he was Ratify y.
Ing July 18th 1872, that Grant has driv-
en- out of the Republican party all It
greatmen, and left only the Postmasterl
and Organ Grinders!
That was good Democratic hash, bu
it contained little truth and great want
of soul. Major says ''Grant did no
whip the rebels, and possibly, in thi;
fight, all the great men will not be able
to whip Grant! These "Ratitiers" mus
remember that now. rs during the re
bellion, there is 4 mighty host of true
AMI brave boys at Grants side who viii
not ratiiy with them! These boys re-
member when the Great men of the
south left Congress and fought them
and Grant, that Grant and his boys gave
thom Yankee Doodle and Hail:COlumbia
and now again, arc they ready to re
peat the dose!
True and Great men are yet left, md
when 10000 shall be Ohios Majority
for Grant in November, then will these
Ratitlers say again ''rhat's carried"!
