PORTRAIT OF THE CHIEF OF FEEDER
AL ELECTIONEERERS AN OLD
DEMOCRATIC ARTIST
Frnm the Nnrlh Star of Inne 1o 1i

From the North Star of June ~, 1927.
Our columns are again burdened with another
of Mr. Van Nesss rejoinders to gentleman who
considered himself implicated in the Governors
first address to the public. That address, however
was intended more particularly TO cooperate with
Southern influence in furtherng the ambitious
views of the leaders of self organized party, and
to raise themselves to the highest offices in the
government, rather than TO have any immediate
bearing upon the politics, official characters, and
public stations of this State.
Instead of supporting his charges against Mr..
Adams and the Administration, Gov. Van Ness,
has, in his replies, descended to low personal abu
sc of the individuals who dared confront him in
these uniounded charges The burden of his
song,' and the objectionable sin committed by
somebody, is the loss Of his senatorial election
His Facilitating principles stood upon this as up
on a pivot-wholly dependant on contingency. II
the result pro we'd favorable, he would prove true
to the Administration; if not, an dpoStdte !-'MENE
TEKEL.'

REMEMBER!
LOCOFOCO LIES.

We understand that in remote parts of the state,
the locofoco electioneerers are reporting that the
wings of Washington county give up the contest /;
and that many Of the renunciaors from Van Bu-
rem in this vicinity have gone back to the Ocofo
co ranks. These are misunderstanding but
oIectioneerng lies. With all the disposition in
the world to nuify the effect of the renunciaons,
the ocos have not yet produced single man who
has backed out; aud we can assure our friends
abroad that we do not know of single instance.
On the other hand we have MORE RENuNcIA.
TONS and we announce to the public, as the re-
suit of our observations, that the prospect in Wash
ington county neuer looked better jor The ,rhigs.-
Let the rest of the state do their duty: the Wash
ington county wings are not afraid TO render their

THE RIGHT or s;;,CrRAGE.

The locoioco eleclioneerers Van Ness, -.
Butler, &c insist in asserting that Harrison was
in favor OF limiting the right of suffrage in India
ma. The truth is he was for extending that rigid
to the utmost limit which the ordinance (which
jefferson approved,l would allow. And what did
Mr.. Van Buren, do ? He spoke and voted, in the
New York Convention for amending the Consli-
tuition in 1891, AGAINST UNIVERSAL SUI
FRAGE, and supported measures which would
have DISTINGUISHED thousands Of the freemen Of
the state including, according to his own admis-
sion, soldiers of the revolution. We have the
documentary proof, and had prepared it for this
week, but 1t is unavoidaby omitted. We shall
give il in the next Waterman.

LlNCOLN'S SPEECH.

Why not publish Lincoln's speech, asks the Pa
lrlot Why not publish it yourself? You have
copied VIGOROUSLY false statement of that speech:
Gov. Lincoln himself says it was false. But VIC
will give our reasons for not publishing Lincoln's
speech. Isl. He does not deny single bill Civ
en-, or appropriation stated, by Gen. Ogle--there-
fore Justice does not require to publish it. 81.
lie maintains that the Presidents house ought TO
be better furnished than any other house. Now
ing an opinion on this subject as is Mr.. Lincoln ;
aye, moro-wc think the plain, substantial democ.
racy of the country, will form better opinion
than he has done. After all, then, the question
comes to this do you approve the purchasing of
foreign carpets, wine coolers, gold plate &C. &c.,
IN defiance Of an eristiag taic? Do you approve OF
the bills ohich are presented you, and which are
not denied i? MIR. Lincons speech helps no man
to a decision of these questions.
