Smith should not be supported. |
should like to know how the rights OF
Mr.. fariden have been trampled upoi.
his pretensIols violated, or TIE feel
ings of his friends disregarded.
With the whinin. cant OF q dema-
gogue. this fil>ome slang is thrown he
fore the people in order TO induce
them to persue that course which .hi,
would be leader, ''Spir,t O. Wayne"
has marked out for them. The ASSET
ton that Mr.. Rariden's rights have
been violated. or his pretenSions tram
have been dictated 10 by caucus i

Mr.. Raridcn, in Il spirit Decentralization.
thinking that they ought not both be in
the field while the whole admicistra-
ton party were arrayed in support OF
their competitor. agreed to submit the
matter to their friends in Union county.
who should determine which OF them
should decline land pledged themselves
to act in accordance with their decis-
ion. Those to whom the matter was
submitted requested Mr.. Raridcn 10
decline, which he has done. How Their
have his pretcnslons been trampled up
on, or where 4. the dictation complain
ed Of! And yet Notwithstanding that
this arrangement was made with Mr..
Rarideu's consent, We are told by Mr..
Spirit, one OF the mos. decided Jack
son men, and a man too, whose very
soul longs for the prostratlon of Mr..
Rariden) that ''his friend. are reused
and excited at being driven from the
support ofthe man they preferred"
Who are those individuals that are
complaining Of the injustice done to
Mr.. Rariden; and are endeavoring to
excite on the part Of his friends hos
tiIity to Mr.. SMITH Are they men
who would have supported MIR. Rari
den. had he have continued IA c.ndi-
date! Or do they belong to that class
who would have held up Mr. r. as a
candidate, not for the purpose ofe!cct-
ing him-not from any regard for him
or the people Of Wayne county, but
for the purpose Of electing General
M'Carty BY eilecting an equilibrium Of
the Smith and Rariden support, and
again, by their Jackson stratagem,
shove M'Carty into Congress! They
certainly belong to the latter class
and when they lind that they have not
been able to succeed in their design.
and that Mr.. Raridcn would not suffer
himself to be used as a candidate to
promote the designs Of Gen. M'Carty,
they can express great deal Of sym
ipathy for him, and complain Of bad
treatment towards him, with no other
view than to induce his friends to go
in with them. 1t is not remarkable
that the small fry should take this
course, when their leader Gen. M'Car-
ty has set them the example. He too
feels great deal Of sympathy for Mr..
R., and tells the people in his speeches
that Mr.. Rariden has been badly treat
ed. lie also states, and correctly too,)
that he IS a high-minded honorable
mar, and that he Dug hi not thus to have
been treated, nor ought he decline.
What produces this feeling on the
part Of Gen. MCarty in favor Of Mr..
Rariden? Did he wish Mr.. Rariden
to be elected! Before Mr.. Rariden
declined he declared be could beat
him 200O votes, and Smith 600, and
since Mr.. Raridcn's decline he charges
him with every kind Of bargain and
corruption. This charge in his tune
is not without its object. bic hopes
! by this course to induce Mr.. Rariden's
friends to support him.
When was it that Gen. M'Carty and
his friends learned to cry out SO Justify
against the party question! 1t was
not until they found themselves in the
minority in the district. When they
have had the majority or their side.
every man of the opposition was pre-
.scrlbcd. No National Republican
has been considered good enough 10
hold an Office. But now when they
are in the minority, the cry is 'Sno ques
tiont no qucstion!r' During the las,
congressional CANVASS, when M'Carty
was running against two National Re
publcans, he openly exhortcd the Jack
!, sonmen to DRAW THE LINE, ant
adhere to him, for says he, sit is ne
cessary that Jackson man should be
elected, in order to sustain the Admin
