Among the demos. living are wings, the members
from pomlret and Chester are dead, and Andoyer

have not much information, out OF the above, out OF
Now Sir, instead of 95 being all the republicans as
you state there were 1903; of course OF them mus,
have been opposed to the resolu or did not attend
to their duty in the House equal to their opponents;
or they might have been like some modern democrats
of the present day opposed TO giving him any applause
whatever. You stated at Brandon that you had
been censured for not stating at Woodstock how those
IS republicans now Stood and you there told us that
about Is were dead DO administration men and 81
wings living. Now Sir if you will find 25 Van Blu;
rem men out OF those 10 which you say are living ana
name them, so that be ascertancd TO accrtanty
will then SIR acknowledge to the public that 40
now dsbclevo that which is true in that respect for
do not believe they to be found on earth, but may
be mistaken
But sir You probably recollect that in the year
1913 Mr.. Madison was not elected by very large
state that all the old fodcras now wings, and 81
out of70 of the old democrats wings also 1t shows
pretty concusvcly where the fathers of the country
are and unless you can succeed with the young men
and make them believe that the old fcdcrallsts are as
bad as you pretend think your friend Matty will
receive marching orders next March, But, sir go on,
take your own course but beg of you one favor on
account of YOURSELF and that is to adopt some other
mode Of argument besides old federalism OLD FEEDER
ALIsM OLD FEDERALISM u! and making
statements which not truo. You did not inform
as how that council Of 1913 stood at this time will
therefore inform you The council that year sconi-
posed of eight democrats and four fedcraliss and of
| these there are three democrats and one federast
now living whose names Mark Richards, Elias
Reyes Horatio Seymour, and Solomon Miller, and
| they are all THOROUGH GOING MoDERN WHlGS.
And now, sir to conclude this timc should advise
You, in your public addresses to ascertain some good
deed that Mr. Van Buren, has done in his life, that Is
worthy ofbeing recorded for future generations to inn
itae, and dwell more on that good act, and not SIAN
der General Harrison quite SO much BY so DOING
you will in my opinion be much more successful in
your undertakings, l will remind you of one of youl
statements at Brandon You said that General Har
rson would not let his opinion be known to any one
and almost in the same sentence you said he woulc
give his opinion as often and in many dfercn
ways as his friends wanted Such contradictions dc
not gain many proseytes unless much mistake thu
feelings of the People
am respectfully, friend and wewisher to ever,
one who uses all fair and honorable means to carry
Just and righteous cause. LEONARD DEMING.
