Tue Loco Focos oflen ask, where is the change
of times which the wings predicted would take
place after the election of 1910 The locoloco pa.
pers are fond of publishing extracts from speeches
made by the wings during the last President ia
struggle, and extracts from the wing papers of that
time, comparing them with what is said now upon
the state of the times These extracts they think
show conclusivey that the wings are no prophets
Now the way faring man, though he may be almost
TOOL politics, cannot fail to understand the mat
ter The laws understand it full well, but their
version of the matter they think makes good cleo
toneering capital, and therefore they will not be
honest enough TO own that the wings lost their
President before they had time to perfect those
measures which were deemed necessary TO the
prosperity of the country. The Importance of res.
toring confidence was urged upon the people, in
order that business might revive in short that times
might be better The overwhelming majority that
elected GEN. HARRIsoS showed clearly that the
great body of the people had confidence in him.

carried out under his administration. No one ex-

would accomplish every desirable result, before it

sarily take time. No one expected that Harrison's
election would annhate time and space, or create
money and place it in every mans pocket, wheth-
er they took any measures 10 obtain il themselves
or not. The confidence which the people felt when
Gen. Harrison took the Preside ntia chair was soon
destroyed. We need not repeat the history of his
death and the commencement of the TYLER Admin.
lstralion The subject is but too familiar. TYLER
struck out new course-refused TO carry out the
wishes OF the party that elected him. Then il was
that the revlving confidence was scattered to the
winds.
John Tyler has in few things been willing to
carry out the wishes of those who elected him. He
signed the Tariff bill This has done some good
and will do much more, we confidently believe
But for the most part the President has been under
the Magnetic influence of those who opposed his e.
lection, or an influence very similar to that which
magnctzers are said to exert over those who are
of the right temperament Tyler answered TO the
touch OF locotocoism extremely well-was entirely
beyond the reach of the wings, and yet we are
tauntingly asked where the blessings which
you promised when you elected Wing President ?
The loco ioco passes have put Tyler ain commu.
nIcalion with party opposed to the wings and
he appears also TO have species of clairrovanee
over which the wings have no control. He sees
something fitting before him in the shape of the
Presidency-but he is very much mistaken if he
thinks to remain in the White House another term
No better proof rs needed that the people were
disguised with the course John Tyler saw fit to
pursue, than the result of the elections which have
been held since the accidental President took his
seat. The locofocos have gained victories with
much less vote than they cast in 1910. The wings
were politically discouraged-a traitor come in TO
destroy public confidence With full knowledge
OF these facts, portion of the press insutngy ask,
where is the confidence which you said the election
OF Harrison would effect Our own President has
been taken away, and locofocoism has made a tool
OF John Tyler, and then it is asked why the plans
OF the wings are not carried out Consistent, truly
