The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1849-09-22


| that article reads thus
| e" If you are in favor Of a high, unjust
and oppressive torif-e tariff, which len
etts the few at the expense OF the many
vote for Alexander Evans.'
That is, if you want such tariff estah-
lished as the WING party favors, vote for
Mr. Evans, bat it you do not want such
tariff, vote for Mr., Magraw.
Now, what kind of tariff do the Wings
want? The heaviest they have insisted
on, is the tariff Of 1912. And for that
tariff a large majority of the locofoco par
~ are anxious-all the mechanics, and
hands in factories and iron establishments
are in favor of the tariff Of IS42; or, at
least better tariff for their interests than
the present lOcofoco tariff Mr.. Magraw,
by the showing of these locofoco presses, is
opposed to the tarifTof 1912. He is there
fore not the man for Democratic working
men--whcther they be farmers or hands
in mills, Or mechanics OF any sort; their
man is Alexander Evans, who is in favor
Of such tariff as they want.
Now we will give high authority that
the Democratic working men and a large
part Of that party are for the tariff of 1912.
We refer the reader to page il12 of the
Congressional Globe for 1st session of 2Gtl
Congress-published by Iocofocos, It will
there be seen that Mr.. Webster put GER
tain queries TO Mr.. Simon Cameron, loco
foco Senator from Pennsylvania. Mr.
Cameron answered as follows: We quote
from the Globe:
Mr.. CAMEuoN.-I answer the Senator
'with great pleasure. ! attended, per
chaps, every Democratic meeting within
'my reach, i'll that State-and some Of
sthem Were at places one hundred and
{ fifty miles distant from my home in
'order to support the great cause OF De-
mocracv; and at all these meeting the
watchHords and the notices ware,
FPolk,' Dallas and before his lainentcd
'death) 'Muhlenberg,' and The Tariff Of
'1842.' And after the death Of our can
'd!date for the Gulenatorial chair, they
'were, 'Polk,' Dallas, Skunk and "rhe

sir, would have got the vote of Penn
'sYvanja without the last the Tariff ot
1912. Much as we di.;iked Gr. Clay,
and sincerely attached az we We're TO
the Democratic party, all would have
gone before we would have relinquished
the Tariff OF 1912"
Here then is the evidence that Mr..
Evans is or the same tariff ground which
The bone and s2new of the Democratic vot-
crs Of all this country stand on. And by
the showing OF the locofoco papers we
have referred 70. Mr.. Magraw is opposed
/ to that kind Of taritf-which tariff is by
!ocofoco gcribblers, who do not understand
the wants and wishes Of the people, de-
nominated, an "unjust and oppressive tar
! il.
Mr.. Evans, then is the candidate for the
pcople-he is the candidate for the indie
pendent voters Of every party.
When the present locotoco tariff vas
passed--which is the tariff Mr.. Magraw
and his more particular adherents what
then occurred in the Senate. Mr.. Came
ron then entered his solemn protest against
it, and gave notice that the word " rcpeal'
would thai day 90 forth and continue IN
Ill the LoCD VOICE OF TIE LABoRERs should
| compel their oppressofs to repeal them.
'IIere," he said, ::will be found the labor
crs and the mechanics reused TO Indigns-
| ton against those who care not how
| much they rob them of their comforts in
| the pursuit OF a wild abstraction. If the
bill had been made by British states
| man, it could not have Disseminated
more in favor OF the English workmen,
nor have done more wrong TO cur me
| chanics and manufacturers. He repeat
ed, that from henceiorth repeal would be
the word among the Democracy Of the
| North, and that 1t would not Cease until
it triumphed."
"REPEAL,'' cried Camcron--he is one
Of the best Democrats" RsrEAL,' will
be echoed by many hardy son Of toll in
Cecil, who gIorles in the name Of Demo
crat, and that the right may prevail, and
Justice be done to American wOrkmen,
many an one will vote tor Alexander
Evans.
