AccoMAck, August |, 1911.
In the Enquirer OF The 10Th is an editorial on
the determination OF MI. Tyler's ricEs in PHI
ladepha, as indicated BY meetings on the l,h
inst TO run 4 separate electoral ticket, and also
for Congress state and County officers. Permit
me, sir, as Il Tyler man, and one who would, 10
see Mr.. TYLER elected To the Presidency make
any reasonable sacrifice, tender 10 you my thanks,
and cordial approval OF the liberal spirit in which
that article is written, and OF the justice it does 10
man who mas undeservedly net with the most biz
ter and il would seem unrelcning persecution from
those whose principles he has nobly thrown him
self in the breach 10 save from the ruthless hand OF
reckless party Ii the spirit OF justice and
liberality which is breaihcd in every sentiment in
your editorial, had but characterized The course
of other Democratic papers, the division now cx-
listing in our party never would have risen. but
to our friends would say, let us not be driven
into the folly and madness Of running separate
electoral ticket by a few fanatics and bisos in
the Democratic ranks who desire the election
of Clay, as their course clearly proves. But let
us rather say that our motto shall be- TIC
Uaion of the Republicans for tic Mlc 81 The Rc-
pubiie" Il is idle TO tell me, that any the
ficAd, either Of Mr.. Tyler or Mr.. Polk, desires
10 see two separate Democratic tickets, when
the inevitable result must H. - ensure the
electoral vote OF the Stale to MIR Clay. 4
L
not desire separate ticket formed for him i'll any
State, where there is to be another Democratic
ticket doubt The sincerity OF any friend Of Mr..
Tyler, who would seriously recommend such
course For, should three tickets be formed one
for Mr. Clay, Mr.. Tyler and Mr.. Polk, Clay, by
receiving a few votes more than ons-third'ot the
whole State, would obtain the entire electoral
vote, thus carrying the State, in which majority
of nearly one-third OF the votes would bc opposed
TO him. believe by forming the Union Ticket
and voting for the same electors, The vote in oppo-
sition to MIR Clay would be greatly increased
For such has been the abuse Of Mr.. Tyler and
his friends. by some Of the Democratic prints,
that many of his friends are determined 10 vote
for him. let the consequences be what they may.
see the friends OF Mr.. Tyler are to hold
Convention in Portsmouth, and those of MIR. Polk
in Charlottesville about the same time; and
hope the same liberal spirit which you have dis
plavca NAV characterize their proceedings and
that they may be united at least IN voting at The
November election for the same electors.
There appeared in the Richmond Whis lately,
an article taken from the Norfolk Herald, (Which
purported to be written by citizen OF Northamp-
ton, but in fact had its parentaSe IN Acconac,)
giving an account OF discussion between Judge
Bayy and Dr. VERIFY, in which VERIFY, mlrob.lc
dicia, is made to Use the Judge up most siSnally.
This might be believed BY some, who never saw
or heard either of them; but the people oil Vrgi,
MIA, who have read the speeches Of the two, will
know how 10 appreciate il.
Judge Bayy made an able speech at July court
in which he denounced the author of the article
alluded to, as contemplate newspaper scribbier,
who knew he was writing lie, and was base
enough to stoop TO any calumny, however disho-
norabe.
On this you may depend: Accomack goes next
Fall tur the Democratic candidates.
