IL. Polk would the veto power TO forbid

these facts to the contrary, the Baltimore con.
WESTON adopted the false resolution that the Lo-

oshev bitter fruits Of the Polk Administration.
n Tbs Administration Of Mr.. Polk has not fulfill

sssetiem. Had the party foresecn the course he

The truil, is, the fruits Of Mr.. Polk $ Admins

he men who voted tor him in the last Presiden-
