The miners' express. (Dubuque, Iowa) 1849-1854, 1849-12-05
wIIIG TRIUMPHs!l

Our Wing contemporaries in this and the neigh
boring States are crowdng their columns with
long foggy articles, in which they endeavor to
make their readers believe that the Wing party
has actually gained ground since the Inaugural
ton of the Taylor Administration, and that moth
ing more is wanting on their part than one more
effort to annihilate the Democratic party
Many ofther readers are simple enough to be-
Ieve all this, for there is class of persons who
take for granted what they suppose to be true, and
who would rather be left in ignorance than be in
formed ofthat which would gansay their opinion.
There may be others, however, in the Wing
ranks, who may like some further information
than that furnished by their rillmasters in epau
let's; and though the officers will not thank
for enlightening their subordinates, we shall
nevertheless give them, in very few words, the
state of parties at present; so that our unenlght
ened Wing fellow citizens may be able to find
their way through the mist and dust raised by the
retreating and whipt columns of Whiggery. E.
lections have taken place in the following States
and with the result mentioned, since the election
of General Taylor. If this is annihilating or de-
feating the Democratic party, they are not only
welcome to make the most oft, but are specially
invited, to fight the battle when they please and
conquer US again. We shall be well pleased to
take as many such drubbings as they may find it I
convenient to give, and thank them in the bar
gain.
