J. DUDLEY'S STATEMENT.
]. Dudley. Esq, Senator, from Franklin and
Owen counties, being called upon, made the fol-
lowing statement on the floor ..f the Senate 4: One
day, in January, 1925, F. r. Blair came into
the Senate Chamber, seated himself near me, and
inquired my opinion the resolution passed request
ing our members Of Congress to vote for General
Jackson as President Of the United States. MIR. b.
desired that would write letters requesting the
bers and particularly d. White from this district to
consult with Mr.. Clay and vote as he might desire.
To this objected, and@ga,e my reasons therefor.
MIR. Is. appeared surprised that | should raise any
objections, particularly as was opposed to the
buttons. He said that number Of members of both
houses, who voted for the resolutions, had written
such letters, and that could do it with more propr'
ETY.. He said if MIR. White could be induced to
vote for MIR Adams he would obtain the vote Of Ken
lucky, and with it the votes Of most Of the Western
States, which would elect him, in which Mr..
Clay would obtain the appointment Of Secretary Of
State. then inquired how that fact had been as
certaned' His answer was that letters had been
ceived from gentlemen of undoubted veracity at
Washington city, containing such information that
| might rely with confidence that statement re-
piled that, although opposed to the resolutions
had no doubt they contained the truth, and there
fore could not say word to induce members
of Congress to believe otherwise. further protest
ed against MIR. Clay's accepting any office under MT
Adams whom considered Federalist of the Boston
stamp in 1898 and 1900, and thenceforward enemy
OF the West you have II as my opinion that II they
were united, they would sink together
The following paragraph (from the Globe of
Saturday, reveals the traitor and pander in the
most unmstakeabe colors:
:" Mr. Clay understands this WELL and hence his
late circulars all impress the idea of " a complete
identification" Chat is his phrase) of Mr. Tyler with
The Democracy He knocs ,ceH that the Independent

brook ierblc and daring support Of heightened Federal
doctrines and measures better than sacrifice Of the ri,e
of the great party to ,rhich they belong by pros.tng all
its eraited patriotic aims IN regard TO the maintenance Of
the rights Of the people and the integrity Of their insHu

that if the Government is once tainted to the core,
through the party which alone upholds it, it is ire

ways warred against il, should conquer it Gas has been
the case) with strong hand, such bit rallies aud
inrites its iend and animates them 10 fly 10 the rescue
and erpel the enemy"

should be 500 Has not the Globe an :. itching
palm" for the reward that is TO follow the be-
trayal of It's party2 Is it not stipulated and
agreed between the high contracting parties,
that Mr. Clay shall thrust Mr.. Tyler in, and Mr.
Blair shall thrust "hundreds Of thousands of
Democrats" out of the party 1t is glorious
game-better than the game of "splits"-it is
what whist players call sce-sanirg. And Mr.
Blair, think g that he really grasps the de ,i-
MES of the party in his hands, is emboldened 10
reveal his purpose in the concluding lines; and
in the most consolIug and paIronizing manner
magnabe, tells the party that although ii may
be necessary for him 10 suffer Mr.. Clay TO be
elected this time, to save it from being tarnsh-
ed by the communications Of this Administra-
ton, "such (CLAY's) success" in 1874 will
animate the Democracy "to fly to the rescue
and expel the enemy in 1918!
The Globe thus concludes its chase produc-
tion:
1t is infinitely better that it should sustain tempo
rary defeat and lose power, than that it should lose
reputation But whether immediate success or future
usefulness be considered W are fixed IN he oninion
that alliance, coalition, cooperation of any sort
with this Administration, should be shunned-should
even be absolutely repeiled"

iaithless 10 his trust, so that enormous sums
might be realized Tor printing, contrary TO the
order of Secretary, can prate about the loss of
