We are getting the truth from the South. as
10 The real views of James K Polk and bis
friends. They are beginning 10 shew their
hands. A letter from Charleston, published in
The Boston Atlas. says that the Hon. Henry
L. Pinckney stated, at The Democratic meeting
last week, that Mr.. Polk had TO disguise his
opinions to meet the views of the Northern
Democrats tha, hewonld slate. on undoubt-
ed authority, to his democratic brethren of the
South. thai, in case of Mr.. Folks election, the
Hon. John C.. Calhoun would be continued in
his Office of Secretary of State, and that The
administration would be pledged 10 use all lis
influence to carry out The Annexation OF Texas,
and The reduction of The Tariff"
Proclaim this in trumpet tongued notes
throughout The land-and let the people know
the secret measures of James K Polk.

NJ There are some important facts con-
pecIed with the public career of James K Polk
which should be remembered. Among them
are The following, which we find in one of our
exchange papers:
II should be remembered, that James X. Polk
is the candidate of The Southern Locofocos-
that South Carolina refused to give in her ad-
besion TO the Convention until he was nomina.
,ed--lhat she is for Free Trade and Texas,
and rha, Mr.. Calhoun declared he would sun
nor, no man for President that was moi Free
Trade man.
IL should be remembered, that no Southern
Locoloco has voted for a Protective Tariff
,ince The Tariff Act of 1916.
IL should be remembered, tha, James X. Polk
could not, Il elected separate himself from his
friends, on this great question, even if he were
disposed to do so; thai he has no desire to
leave them il he could aud that he is therefore
irerocably committed to The support of Free
Trade, and opposition TO the Protective Policy.
Ii should be remembered, That the Nashville
Union, his organ, has declared "ihat The op.
pressive Tariff of lS42 has been condemned
hy every Democrat. Tha, its provisions are
viewed with adherence by Governor Polk and
his friends"
il should be remembered, That James X. Polk
declared The present Tariff Act. /" conlrivance
10 CHEAT the people" See his address To
The people of Tennessee, dated Columbia, May
II, 1913 Nashville Union Extra.
II should be remembered, That on The passage
Of The act for the relief Of the WIDOWS AND OR
PIIANs Of the officers, seamen and marines of
The U. S. sloop of war Hornet, which was
passed, yeas 1873, nays 40, James X. Polk vo-
ted in The negative. See Jour- H. r. lS29-30 |
