given to him adversely those given him tho Polls by
THE PEOPLE THEMSELVES, in the actual. practical
exercise OF their sovereign power.
These Instructions, ,,o called for eomplaisanee we
believe justified in saying, were procured after
the tnsh fashion Of 1884, damned such infamous notor

man not to be pat down by such vile demagsguc arts.
