THE ORGAN-AN APosrATEswHIG.

THE ORGAN-AN APOSrATEsWHIG. =
Tho servIIe Organ Of the Ysn clique has a
most happy knark Of rea'iing out Of The democra.
nc ranks every man who Is iu favor al ,herc-
who have borne The brun, of the butte, aud have
never wavered since party lines were iirs. drawn
IN this State. Bu, his object is too plain to be
mistaken. Those whom no assails, need no dc.
! fence. Their acts aGd their votes correspond,
with their professions, AMI the democratic party
need no proof 10 CONVINCE u of their sincerity.
| But so with the iuiiyilui who has unfortu-
narey been selected by the Yeii eiqse as the would
DO Organ Of Ms DemJerG!ic party. His APOS-
! rACi from the WIG RAM is of so recent
a date, that he knows there is no difficulty in
IUNMASkING him. and hence his great Anxiety
10 adopt (borIowIug his own languagr) "ihe s,alo
device of detected rosuos, ia all ages, who cry
sop Miet, against their honest neghbors," 10
div erl attention from his own equivocal position.
Bat he ought TO recoleci, that (again borrowing
hs own classic angunge) .the 10 known by
his brdg, however skiliuuy he may hide his ears."
His device shall 20 eiore avail him nothing. II
shall not prevent the exposure OF HIS ArosrAcr
from the ranks Of The pAigs, and the equivocal
position he now occupies III the democratic ranks.
He has before been asked who he voted for
for President of the United States, in lS36--Mr.
IL
replied, /, has escuped my notice. ! therefore re-
ptaI it, and now ask tho Editor of the Banner 10
state, IN his paper, aud without any evasion or
equiv ocaiion, whelhor ho voted for Mr.. VAN
BURES or for Judge WulTE, in 1886; and, if for
the former, to produce the proof. ! call for the
proof. Yes, the PRoorl This he can produce, f
II was over IN existence, for the Constitution of
this State requires all elections 10 be rira rice,
which will enable him 10 show rho he voted for.
My call is not an unreasonable one. Let him
therefore produce the proof or suitar under tho
inpu;a'ion of having NOT voled for Mir. Van Buren,,
in 1886. This he does not produce the PROOF, the
natural inference win be that he voted for Judge
WHITE, the ,chig candidate.
h"'U- heforv vi,r'5pd .i-.,-.D .Di,h -~,i-s g.
ghig, for the Legislature. in 1886. II he docs
noI deny-but tries 10 plaster it over, in his last
paper, by asserting that the whig gent eman Tor
" hom he voted. supported Mr.. Van Buron aud
Col. Johnson in 1886. That may, or may no,
be true; bu, whether true false, II is no moro
evidence Of the genllemans being a democrat
than it is Of the woud.be Organs beiug one. |
can recolIecl several wings who voted for vanBuren
and Johnson. in 1886, who voted for Harrison and
T., Ter in 1910, aud for Clay and Frelinghuysen.
in 1914, and hayo uniformly voted for, and ncted
in concert with the wings, in nl our elections
since 1886; and if am not mistaken do not
asser, i, 10 DO true) the gentleman TO whom he
alludes, has voted aud acted ever since.
But do moi admit that the woud-be Organs ms.
scrtion, that the gentleman alluded 10 voted for
| Van Buren and John,on 1886, is any more ov-
idence Of his having done SO. hanit is OF tho rouid
be Organs having voted for those gentlemen.
lfrue, it Is susceptible Of proof, and therefore
REQUIRE him to produce it-and, at the same time,
| would be pleased il he will produce The proof Of
his opn votes on The same occasion. II is proof
that rcquire-not his assertion.
| have before charged the rould-be Organ with
voting for EVANS the disorgonizing candidate for
Congress in IL 2,und against Judge CRoss, who
was tho regular and acknowledged candidate Of
The democratic party. and who is one Of the own
ers Of the press and types with which ne (lhe
could-be Organ is dislractng and dividing our
iparty-ni,d hc has not denied the charge, nor ut.
tempted TO do it. lft is not true, why does he not
deny III will answer far him-he knors il is
true it can he proven on him, and he dare not
deny it, or even attempt TO justify SO fragrant an
act of detection in the democratic party.
But have no: yet dono with this lender fooled
uouid-be Organ, and hope ho will keep his pa
Illpncc, while administer to him another dose Of
his uhiggish propensIles; and when that has had
time 10 operate, will have another and another
ready for him. and shall keep on administering 10
him, in broken dOs.s, until | UNMAsK him nm

tera,ed democrat.
; now charge him with having voted, in 1912,
fora WING candidate for the Legislature, and that,
too, against a dtnocratc condidute who was reg.
ularIy nominated by Democratic Convention.
Il This is new and distinct chnrge. and has no
, terence to his voting for the WIG candidate for
the Legislature in 1885, Let him deny i, ifho
, dare. lie dares not, for he kno,cs can and will
prove il.

YELL voted for u WING cnndidnte for the Legis.
a,urc. THIS | charged on him some weeks
ago, ard il has not been denied by his friends
for the simple reason that they know it to be true.
What say YOU, my would-be O,,gnnl Don't
