LOUISVILLE, November 5-We have copied
from the Missouri Advocate, the correspondence
between Mr. John Scott, the representative OF Mis-
souri, in Congress, and Senator Barton on the sub
ject OF the late presidential election. The appeal
oil Mr. Scott 10 his old political opponent for adj
vice, is at once singular and humiiating. When
Mr. Scott passed through this place. on his way to
Washington, in the fall of 1921 he stated 10 several
gentlemen, that he hid pledged himself to vote for
Jackson, provided Mr. Clay should not be one of
| the candidates returned to the House. Even the
political enemies of Mr.. Scott were then confident
that he would faithfully redeem the PROMISE he had
made 10 his constituents, and which he was so
ready 10 reiterae and explain, while on his way to
Washington. But in less than two months after
that period, we find Mr. Scott prostraiing himself
at the feet OF his former adversary--co OF
" embarrassment" and gravely asserting that
since Missouri had lost her FIRST choice, he had no
decisive indications, as to who was her second
choice. He is first prevailed upon, to violate his
pledge 10 the people; next, TO abandon his old
friend, Col. Benton; and, finally, 10 submit to the
dicaton OF Senator Barton--upon the promise of
the latter, to share with him, the infamy and the
responsibility he was about 10 incur.
To "cap the Climax it seems that Barton
had previously become political turncoat; for, in
March, 1924, he wrote letter from Washington
to a gentleman in Missouri, containing the follow
ing paragraph
" Gen. jackson now possesses the uni ed strength
OF himself and MIR. Calhoun, whose friend. have
Withdrawn him from the contest for the presidency;
consequently, the General is decidedly the promi-
nent western Candidate, and it be really thought
important TO have western President, as many
think 1t U.s. II JoiloJcs, as plain conclusion that
the acest sto1tid foresO personal predictions
and unite their strength upon the candidate
most likely to succeed; more especially, where the
men to be dropped, are young, IKE Clay and Cal
houn, and might come before the nation in good
time, or years hence
Il is thus obvious, that Barton was first brought
Oper; and he, in turn, brought over the virtuous,
and Trustworthy representative of the people, the
Hon. John Scott! Louisville (R) .4sly.
