The Cadiz sentinel. [volume] (Cadiz, Ohio) 184?-1851, 1844-05-22

IL ne nls Oeen denounced IaI ana vide, DY eve lQ
ny hireling whg press, traitor, and by every pr
whlg demagOgue as a scoundrel. The short Of n;
the story is, that the wings were playing frau al
dulent game when they elected John Tyler, and Il
they got caught in their own net. | am no Ty- q
ler man, but it is due 10 my feelings and to JUS lip
tce, TO say that the democracy and the country ii
owe Mr.. Tyler debt of gratitude which will on t
ly be paid when the party strife which overshad- Ic
ows good and rewards evil shall have passed Ia
away, and merit and worth shall have place4i
in the political history of our country. b
When General jackson heard that John Tyler a
had vetoed that bill of denominations he thanked
his God that " 'rc had one honest man left, p"
! When General Jackson, in 1882, vetoed the
| bill TO recharter the Bauk Of the United States,
every heart and every tongue of every patriot
was full of gratitude and praise. 1t was said
that, under all circumstances then existing
(meaning the power Of the bank andthe strength
and influence of the bank party,) there was no
other man living who had the nerve and the mo-
raj courage to brave the storm, but General /,
jackson. John Tyler did the same thing, under
as fearful circumstances. Why should he not
have the same amount Of gratitude and praise
e Render unto CG8ar the things arbick are Ce-
sdr's. -
4 Mr. Tyler has done things that regret. Ire
} gre that he signed the bill TO repeal the indie
pendent treasury. ! regret that he signed the
t bankrupt bil by which just claims to the amount
of millions were repudiated, swindlers encoura-
ged, and scoundrels discharged from their hon
est obligations. | regret, above all, that he
: signed the bill TO provide for the distribution of
the proceeds of the public lands--a measure
! that, in its effect and object, was designed to
plunder the people and brbe the States. But of
, all this the democracy, as party, have no right
! to complain. Mr. Tyler was not of their choice,
nor is he indebted@to them for his situation.
! He had done all for the democracy that they
: could hope and more than they had a right to
+ expect,
O. Permit me to take this occasion 10 say that
:, no blame is to be attached to the President, for
0 the profligacy and extravaganza Of this admins
II tration. 1t was the peoples representatives ip
/ the House and Senate, who made the appropra-
IS tons of the peoples money, and not the Pres-
O dent. Let the blame rest where it properly be-
n longs. g Let justice be done, though the heay-
IS ems should fall. "
e Mr. Speaker, from the very nature of our gov
c eminent, and from the nature of the representa-
+ tive character, the people have a right to demand
e and TO know the principles and the measures
al which shall govern and be sustained by every
candidate for Office in the event Of his election
II and that right to demand carries with it the duty
ID and the Obligation on the part Of the candidate,
70 to answer all nterrogatores, made in proper
% manner, and from proper motives, touching the
" duties, measures and principles, which shall gov
= ern and be sustained by every candidate for Of
fee in the event of his elections and that night to
y demand carries with it the duty and the obliga-
10 fion on the part of the candidate, to answer all
ID interrogatQries, made in proper Manner and
h. from proper motives, touching the duties, moa-
n suros and principles, which shall govern him in
or the event of his election. That right and that
~ duty we're both violated in the contest Of 1910,
j. by the federal candidates for Office The candi-
10 date for the presidency was Intercepted as TO
a. what measures and what principles would govern
i, . him in the event of his election? Those inter
