entitled 10 vote in that election are at their post
OH that dav, AMI thai their names are regularly
entered hy the Commissioners a@ree"blv 10 law.
The present, gentlemen, ! conceive Ia h the
most important election which has ever taken
place since the organization Of our Government.
and upon lis decision rcss, in my opinion, the
safety and the pcrlctuilv of our Republican in
staions | cannot. therefore. too strongly re-
commend 10 vou, prompt and decisive ac.ion IN
the discharge oil yotr duties and an inllexihe
and uncompromisina ho>tili.yto The dangerous aud
unconstitutional measures oi modern Federalism.
The political hcr">ies of the present day are no
less astounding than dangerous: that which was
Unconstitutional III 10 has become perfectly con
>in;ional in 81 VIVA; was an oppressive Tariff
in '3., ana required ~ less lnan Nulhcaion Ivy
one OF the States, is now, thoagh E!or. than dou-
be in lis oppressive duties the very thing 10 pro-
mole Inc interest and secure the prosperity uf this
country. 1'mpra mainaiEr. n ms nl"f0nW m
ills Wcare now uravelv told bv Mr.. Slanari,
that a Bank is a Republican measure. and clear
IL granted bv the Constitution while Mr. South
all and Mr.. Clay boldly DENY the charge. Mr..
LYONS tells IL. that ought 10 have Texas, and
thinks that we can get it sooner hy The election
of Mr.. Clay than Mr.. Polk while Mr.. Leigh. The
MaenuS Apollo Of The Federal party, says The
remuneration OF Texas i neither polite nor con-
silu,ional Thus, gentlemen, you see VIC have
4 sci of Doctors disagrccing anon" themselves
4 sort OF piabal, pig and coon pany-who are
any thing and every thing which each may think
best calculated 10 secure the election of Mr..
CLAY utterly regardless oi The consequences
which must beiall orr country IN the event oil his
election. But, gentlemen, where is The proof oi
he charge tina, Bank is Republican measure!
WHY. say the Feds, Mr.. Jefferson signed bill
chaIiering Bank in Louisiana, then territory:
but. saws Mr. Clay, thar act of Mr. Jefferson in
volvcG no question u: conslituionality. Again. IL
* said hat the Democrats have supported men
known 10 favor q Bank. This assertion lscqually
false: we have always discarded every man who
has dared 10 advance any opinion OF To advocate
ann measure which led 10 the establishment OF 4
National Bank have only 10 point you 10 the
cases of Fl. G. Winston and Edmund Fontainc,
our former representatives in the State Senate 10
talsit'y this charye-Who hurled them from office
as soon as twas ascertaincd that they had joined
hands with The Feds IN supporting Bank? Most
unqu.stionablv. the Democratic party Who sup
po.;ed these gentlemen in their attempts To break
down the Constitution by the establishment OF a
Bank of the United States! The Feds. and yet,
gentlemen. with these facts staring them in the
face, they haze the unblushing impudence 10 say.
that we are the supporters of Bank, and
are equally guilty with themselves in their false
and iattudnous construction Of the Cons,itu-
ton Surely the Feds think the people of Viz
einia ineiiably stupid SILL or else they would
not assert things which the verest ignoramuS OF
The country knows are contradicted by the history
of the whole land: but like drowning man, they
are catching al straws-no doubt feeling that a
vir,uous people have stamped on the forehead OF
their leader this ominous inscription Meme, Meme,
Tckel, Upharsin. But, gentlemen, ii Is not ne
cessary Tor me To call your attention 10 The strange
inconsistencies OF the Federal party Encouraged
BY their success in 1910, they no longer conceal
their principles They are now the open support
