POPULAR EXCITEMENT

The meetings in New York city in favor of the
course Of the Presidents recent Veto is a clear nt-
nation Of the Wings that the whole body of the De-
mocra,s are beginning TO show their hands in support
OF Mr. Tyler's policy We take it for granted that
the Democratic party all over the Union will in their
primary meetings, publicly commend his manly career

Congress against the Land and Tarifhn We oon-

prompt and enthusiastic manner. Every Democratic
paper in the Union approves of the last Veto besides
many impartial prints that not governed by parti-
sun motives. 1t is thought to be doubtful whether
the Wings will not leave Washington without pre-
'senting simple Tariff bill to the President. They
seem to be SO welded TO the Land question that they
cannot vote for Tariff alone. We had thought
that by this time they might begin TO that their
policy was not popular with the people, almost every
mail brings them the news of great political de-
feat For ourselves we can hardly think any act
that they could perform that would win for them the
support Of the people. They have, during their pre-
sent session, exhausted the patience of the freemen
Of the country with their numerous petty devices to
head the President. Yet in defiance of all their
movements, he has clearly kept ahead OF them

own act to repeal the moment the duties on imports

The President has given another evidence OF his
adherence to principle in his Veto of the tariff bill
The Wings have been egislating for weeks for the
purpose of obtaining it, and we congratulate them that

greater absurdity could not well be framed than
the tariff bill vetoed 1t combines taxation and
distribution in one act--taking from the poor with
hand, and giving to the rich with the other-ds'
tributng the land money among the people, Indirect
ly, to each man in proportion to his property, and
taxing them, also indirectly, to supply the place oil
what they distribute, not according to their ability to
pay but the poor much as the rich.
The President gives various substantial reasons for
the course he has taken. But having a former
occasion, given his sanction to the principle of dis
trbuon, he could not avail himself of the strongest
argument that could be produced to support the mea-
surcthat of the utter unconsttutionaty OF distrl-
button in any form, and of its corruptng tendency
and general impol cy.
The Wings in Congress deserve the severest re-
probation for uniting two measures so ncongruous as
tariff and distribution, and making the fate o. the for
mer dependent upon the luck of the latter. They
have destroyed the living by claiming it to the dead
and the country will hold them responsible for their
folly,

PRESIDENT TYLER

The expected veto message of the President arrived
last week. and we give il TO readers to-day They
whose sober second thought is never wrong and al
ways efficient" will pass such judgment upon 1t as
they think it, We venture to assert that they will
admire its pIainness Of STYLE and its bold Indepen-
dcnce of doctrine and principle. The President never
presumed TO dictate TO Congress what measures they
should adopt, but he did ask that they should assn e
attitude of common respect for coordinate de-
partment of the Government. Ii he has been ffe-
quently driven into the exercise of the veto power,
il is because in his judgment, and with his constitu-
ional views, and with his ideas Of political honesty,
which not "mere distractions, be could not APP
prove ofthe which they, in the fury of party
zeal, and with cringng subservlency to the Ken.
lucky dictator, had ad'pted.
John Tyler was certainly not the Pre- ident OF our
choice in 1910, nor did he contingenlly become so
but so long he pursues his present course cnglns
to old Republican faith and carrying out Democra-
tic measures shall give his administration our ap-
prevail and assent and certainly shall never join IN
the loud uthed and vehement, cry of log cabin and
coonskin politicians, the fierce denuncatons OF
federal quacks.
Let his administration have fair trial. and if he
does well and rightly sustain him. if, in our judy
ment, he carries out federal measures, or advocates
federal doctrines, shall be the first to condemn
him,

VETO NO. 4.

John Tyler has again shown his independence and
devotion to long cherished Republican principles,
taught in the school of Virginian Democracy, and
which his brief connection with the coonskin Whig-
gerry could not Eradicate by veioing the Tariff, Rev.
enue and Appropriation bill, imposed on him by the
ultra advocates of Henry Clay, for the purpose of
keeping the financial interest, Of the country in a
state Of agitation and uncertainty and to make pol-
cal capital for their idol out of the depressed condition
OF business and the suferngs of the Iaborng commu-
nifty. This nfexibe integrity of President Tyler
has secured him enviabe reputation, and if the
doctrine of special providence makes any part of the
religious creed of the Whig-, they cannot fail to see
that the elevation of John Tyler to the Presidency
among the strongest evidences of its truth and gh
to be long hailed an advent in the political history
of The United States, which has arrested the designs
OF the most desperate and dishonest political aspi-
rants, leagned with British money Lords and fund

signs OF Federalism will give the people time to re-
trace Their political errors and restore the Government
to Its original conserva,ors, the Democracy of the

VETO MESSAGE.

VETO MESSAGE
As generally expected, the President has re-
fused to sign the tariff and distribution bill his rea
for doing given his message, to be found
in another column. The Clay Wings passed the bill
purpose for Mr.. Tyler TO veto, but as imposes
large additional taxes the people and at the same
tine provides for the waste OF several millions ahhu
ally, Mr.. Tyler refused TO sanction 1t, and large ma
jority Of the tax payers will say that he DID rg.
erybody but the Clay politicians and the manufacture
to whom the bill gives monopoles, and corruption
lists who want TO handle the land revenue-"m say
that Tyler has done right. The people VIII say IL Is
crong 10 tax them 10 put money In the treasury :"
be paid out to The States--lcrong 10 tax them any
more than is necessary 10 raise sufficient revenue TO
carry on the Government in the most economical man
ner.
As for the Wing Congressman who have spent
weeks and months to obtain this veto and To embaT-
lass the admnsI alton and create confusion and DIS
tress throughout the county, in order To make MT
Clay the next President, they wi have a long ac-
count settle with the county. The Democrats
have been and are willing and anxious to pass taIii
bill vi ch will afford all necessary revenue, ana all
the protection, incidentally, that just regard for all
interests will allow and the President repeats his
anxious desire tn cooperate with Congress In me
passing of law which, while it shall asss, in supply
ing the wants Of the Treasury and re-estabsh pubIic
credit shall afford t. the manufacturing interests oil
the country all the incidental protection they re-
quire."
The Wings are thus left without excuse. Then
only purpose has been TO =" head" John Iyler-'e
make mischief-to carry out mere party schemes, ano
those of the most obnoxious character Ii they dare
do it, they will adjourn without providing money tt
carry the Government. Let them do 1t II they
dare. 1t il to be hoped that there are sane Whig'
enough with whom the Democrats can unite TO pro
vide for the Government before the adjournment, ou
most of the Wing congressman have been afflicted
with madness SO long that q cure is almost hopeless
We shall long whether they are entirely berei
of reason.

THE VETO

The President has vetoed the Tariff bill, and thus
has not deceived the members of either party His
main objection to the bill was founded on the inpcicy
OF connecting two bills together. The Wings, in or
DER TO compel John Tyler to be Inconsistent po-
clan whether he will not put provision in the Ia
nm bill directing the proceeds arising from the sale of
public lands to be distributed among the ates which
they knew he was opposed TO, and which had no con-
necuon whatever with the Tariff OF all measures,
that which has for It's object the forcing of the Presi-
dent to recede from an established position without
conviction OF error, is the II is eqisIatinp for
no good to the people, but merely to CRAFTY the spleen
OF party, because he foed them in scheme To entail
upon the people the burden of another United States

bill, leaving out the distribution clause We hone
