Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1841-1853, 1842-07-12

from exchange papers, there IS lltlt preparation
max ng for the approaching contest BY either party
and did We not know that the Loco EOc0 party Is
always so drilled as TO be ready for acton AT the
tshIspcr Of It's leaders, there would seem 10 be no
danger to be apprchended by the wings. But let
Us warn our friends Indiana not TO trust 10 the
seeming apathy OF their opponents u they do they
Will BE- deceived. That party IS always Vlglant
and active bringing their whole strength TO the
polls. and always running the proper number oil
candidates They see the importance OF carrying
the Legislature Of Indiana. DO our friends not
know that field once surrendered s not easily re-
captured are they not aware that upon their sue
cess must depend the continuation in the Senate OF
the United States of the present able business Sen
ator Smith, or the election OF some other wing
DO they not reflect that the State may be so dis
trlcted by their opponents as TO deprive them OF at
least part OF their respectable wing representatives
in the lower House We trust and hope that our
friends Will this matter IN It's true light before
IL is too late. We may be excused Tor tins brief
alluson to the approaching election in Indiana, by
the feel IN the success OF correct prncI-
ples.-True Uhg.
The above, from wing print at the City OF
Washington has been copied generally by the wing
papers Of this State. If it was not written by
some Of the wing Senators or Representatives who
are paid eight dollars day for making good
times" and II they did not write dictate it for
the purpose OF retaining their seats aud salaries,
then, indeed, it is specimen of presumptuous
mpudence. What occasion is there for this " for
eign interference" by the tools of the Clay clique
at Washington Do they suppose the iIooslers IN
capable Of " doing heir vofing,' that they thus
presume to offer their unasked advice Did they
not hire Barnett, BESIDES to tell them all about how
people must vote, to please the clique at Wash
ngton What need then, of this foreign appeal,
and why are the pipelayers pathetically called
upon more to be ready to earn base brides OF
their leaders
Admitting its propriety in the abstract, however,
what good does the A." True TPhig' offer to
the Hoosiers tohy they should vote for Wings III
stead Of Democrats! Solely this: that Mr.. SMITH
should be put the United States Senate another,
second term, of Six Years and that the State
shall be Districted by gerrymondering, that a
majority of the Congressman shall be wings for
the next Ten Years
That is all Nothing is thought Of but OFFICE,
and the SPOlLS Not word is said about
our enormous Sfate Debt Of Sirfeen .WhioHsj not a
suggestion is made for the lief Of The people from
the intolerabe burthens which this great debt is
likely to impose upon them if the rash and imprac-
tcable propositions of visionary politicians shall be
carried into effect but every thing is merged into
mere scramble for the - loaves and fishes, for the
exclusive benefit of heartless office seekers!
We think there are some other matters quite as
important keeping certain men in office, and we
believe majority Of the people of this State enter
tain similar opinion.
The question of TAXES is one of much more mag
nitude and Who shall we Elect must be kept sub
ordinate that. Do the People desire that the
taxes shall be again raised to 40 on the 100
dollars instead of 10 cents If so, they will elect
those wings who raised it TO that amount, or they
will re elect the Democrats who reduced it from 40
to I5
DO the People desire the repeal Of the Taluaton
Latc which requires property under execution to
sell for two-thrds of its value, or not at all If so,
they Will for wings, and they Will soon be
gratifed, as in Kentucky, tcih The sigh Of their
cattle selling under The hammer, 10 pay tar deiin
quencies, at a SHILLING A HEAD.
DO the people desire to rOrp,tuate the past and
Dresent extravaganza in State Expenditures If
so, let them follow the dictation of the True
Wing" and elect those who, having the ascendancy
are justly held responsible for their increase, in
few years, from the moderate sum of $4,000 dollars
to the enormous one of 100000 dollars annually.
Do the People desire to riihdraw all The Trust
Funds zine Sfate-the Surplus Revenue, the Sa-
line, the School funds, &c.-from the custody Of
the present agents in the several counties, by whom
they loaned to the people, and to concert them
into Bank Stock, according to the law of winter
before last which repealed at the last session.
in the face Of the most violent and savage opposition
of the Bank minions If so, let them send men here
legslate for them who are indebted to the Bank,
and thus owe it servitude--or who, under any cir
cumstances, are disposed to bow the neck or bend
tho KNOB In r. mercicss dirtation
Do the People desire another BANK SUSPEN-
SION If so, let them elect majority OF men
whom the Bank can control through fear or favor
men who believe that Banks, like Kings, can do no
wrong nd they will most certainly be accommodated
with another suspension. The People may rest as
sured that this, in particular is no idle suggestion
They know that the Bank, last winter, through its
President, declared It's Indspositon and inability to
resume They know that when, at last, the day
of assumption did come, some of the Branches part
cd with their cash as if every dollar an eye
tooth They know that nothing but dire necessity
compelled the majority of the Branches to resume,
against the strong hostility of their managers and
favorites. And noW tcarH The People, in all
candor and seriousness and if possible would ring
it in the ears of every man, Wing and Democrat,
until the first Monday in August, that the Bank will
only maintain resumption, through the fear of an
impending penalty if it should again suspend and
that # we have set of men elected whom it can
hope to bride or terrify, we shall again be swim
died by an lrredeemable currency.
These, and perhaps many other subjects OF pub
lie interest, should be taken into consideration by
the People. in making choice of Representatives to
the next General Assembly. Each of them will
