PETERSBURG, Oct. 81, 1912
To the Editors # the Evansville Journal:
have not enjoyed hours health since my re-
turn from Washington or | should have visited your
place this, particularly as see you say in your
Journal that dare not visit my indignant constitu.
ents terrible is their displeaure my congress
sional course.
Taking it for granted that your representation of
the state of public feeling is correct and that it
would be quite as dangerous for me to visit Evans
vile any other portion of the district beg leave
to say through your columns that | shall be in that
place on Saturday, the 29th October, when, should
it be the pleasure of the people, will address them
As il may be matter of curiosity with some TO
know what can say, or rather what dare say, to
community so highly .ncensed, will briefly state
what am ready to assert and prove.
That the course pursued by me during the 9th
Congress is in conformity with the principles avow-
ed previous to my election.
That the administration Of John TYLER which sup
port is an honest, able and efficient administration
conducted with an eye single TO the welfare of the
people and the honor of the nation.
That this Administration, without party in Con-
gress support IT. has been eminently success
full in the management of our Foreign Relations than
any Administration since the commencement of the
Government ana quite as ehclent former
Administration in conducting our domestic affairs.
That the dsgraceful and indecent attacks made by
the ultra Wing press upon the public and private
character of the Executive and his friends in Con-
gres but the illusions of thwarted party
leaders, under whose orders this warfare has been
waged and but a forcshadowing of the tyranny those
leaders would practise should they ever obtain power
That the 9th Congress has been thus far spent by
the ultra Wing party in President making to the det-
riment of the public interest and to the injury Of the
national character.
That the Wing party as represented in the 9th
Congress- is incompetent TO legslate for the benefit
of the people of America and that full and fair trial
of twelve months has given lamentable proof of that
ncompetency.
That the Wing party in Congress attempted and
have in a great measure succeeded in converting the
Halls of the National Councils into mere party eau
Gus Chambers, proscrptve alike OF freedom Of
thought or independence OF acton
That the Wing party as represented in Congress
has openly declared upon the most salutary pro-
visions and safeguards Of the Constitution of the nj
ted States and have avowed their hatred of that Con
stitution as bequeahed to us by Washington and the
sares of the Revolution.
That the Wing party in Congress has attempted to
exercise powers at variance with every principle of
free Government, and expressly forbidden by that
Constitution 1T so anxiously wishes to alter or de-
stroy.
This and much more am ready 10 prove either on
the floor of Congress in the presence of any por-
ton Of the people represent.
Before close this letter deem it but candid to
say that am noic well convinced that am in a very
small minority Of the Wing party, belonging as ! do
to the Republican portion of It, But deceived as |
have been, am not discouraged | have unwaver-
ing faith in the calm judgment of the people, and
know that Republican principles must and will tri-
umph-at all events for will not be driven from
the political position occupy by party clamor or
any spuriously manufactured public indignation
