Jerome Powell offered tne foflowina
preamble and resolutions which were
unumtaously adopted by the Convention:
Whereas, A crisis has arrived, as
we believe, in the affairs of our county,
which claims the attention of all gwal
citizens that, fct rough the workings of
party machinery, the people, who pay
tne taxes and should be the dictators,
have absolutely no hing to say as to
Whom shall be entrusted the affairs ot
the county; And Whereas, Certain
unprincipled and irresponsible men
through trickery and Iraud, and misren
fesentations of all kinds, have managed
to get control of the dominant party, and
have placed in nomination a ticket local
k its character, and fur the most part,
notoriously unfit for the various positions
to which they aspire, and entirely
against the wishes of the majority ot the
party, and the masses of the people who
foot the bills: therefore, be it
Resolved, 1st. That it shall be our
aim this day to place in nomination a
ticket composed of honest and capable
men, selected from the people, by the
people, untrammeled by Ring dictation,
without regard to past pollitical views,
or location.
Zd, That we deprecate the growing
disposition manifested by reckless and
designing men to work upon local
prejudice for the purpose of turning our
county cmces into avenues ot probt lor
themselves and their unprincipled fa
. vorites, to the (Treat detriment of the
publio.
3d. That we shall require of those
this day nominated, and elected on the
second Tuesday of October, the strictest
economy in the administration of public
affairs.
4th. That at the present time, while
. the industries of the country are to
some extent paralyzed, it is more than
ever important that we not only require
prudence and economy in adtmenstra
tion, but that we abstain from all ex
nenditures tor publio improvements, ax
y, onoi, ns absolutely ni.esKarv for
iue gaiety or .img oi ine country.
