JAMES
for Secretary Of State--What our
Correspondent Thinks of Him.

Ed. LEDGER.-permit me, through
your columns, to say a word in com
incubation Of a worthy man who is
now a prominent candidate for Sec
rotary OF State.
| know that the opinion of a plain
citizen goes but a little way in these
days, when the rcd-hot politician,
with oily tongue, runs rough-shod
over the country. The modest masses
rarely get nominated the man of their
choice, because the clsp-trap hummer
with JrHtem ,tn1men sweeps them
aside as the cyclone doth the corn
fields, but / write under the hope
hat the honest people will come to
the front at this crisis in the history
OF the country. 1t ever there vas Il
time when good and true mel should
h" put forward for Office, it is now.
The political world is il a state of
unrest. Dishonesty in place-state
ana nati0ua,--has shaken the faith of
many, and wisdom in our election Of
candidates muSt be exercised.
James Carroll, of Audrain county,
emhodies the time-honored Demo
cratic qualifications for Office. He is
both competent and honest; n life
long Democrat. Although an Irish
mau 10y birth. he does not boast of
the fact, Or cain any privilege on
that account, but on the contrary is
fully Am~cricanized, aud is as Jealous
Of its honor as any nan that lives.
He is frank and opcn-hearted as u
child, generous to fault, and ever
foremost in any work Of charity that
looks to the advancement Of private
or public good.
The party could not find in the
whole State a man better qualified, or
one who would take more pains to
discharge, in an acceptable manner,
the duties of the office than James
Carroll. Let the people sec to it that
he is nominated. \.

Whittaker's possession, the torn edges
