"A io1r las 5een rqsed." has it Then
why did YOU break up the last Legislature
and put the State t. the expense Of Spe-
cial Election and an Extra Session express
" on the assumption that this law was and
could be no law, but an unconstitutional as
sumption Of power Why have You fred
cannon and held public meetings TO glorify
those who broke up the Legislature by re-
signing. if that Enlargement measure be
really valid law Do YOU justify mi
nority in thus obstructing Legislation and
disoraanizinc the State on mere question
Of exrediency And can you, who have
thus saddled the State with heavy eXpen-
dture to subserve a purely factlous purpose,
now venture to talk of Wing expenditure
rs Lavish, reckless and corrupt" and on
that ground ask to be restored to power
When did the Wings ever run the State
100000 in debt to subserye a mere party
purpose. as YOU did in this breaking up the
last Legislature
But the plain intent of this resolve Is to
make the friends of the Enlargement policy
believe that the serpent which tried to Kill
that Enlargement has voluntarily torn outhls
own fangs and is henceforth harmless-that
the work will 90 forward though Its hered
itary and yindictve enemies are empowered
to control it. This is barefaced fraud
a deliberate attempt to obtain Office by false
pretenses. There is not 4 shadow of prob
ability that the men who stopped that En-
largement on coming into power In 1912,
will prosecute it if restored in 1892. They
are its hereditary enemies not, all but the
controlling majority of them-the men who
hunted De Witt Clinton to his grave, insist
ing that he was pushing the State on to
irretrievable bankruptcy by his demagogue
projects of Internal Improvement-the men
who reported in 1927 that the Canals would
never paw expenses, but must be sustained
by direct taxation-the men who in 1912
not only stopped the Enlargement outright.
but imposed a needless tax on the People 10
render that Enlargement charlottesville
men who crowded into the Constitution ct
1916 clause by which they confidently
expected to postpone the completion OF that
great work for at least twenty years-who
have all along insisted that the end and ann
of the Convention was the fastening of the
Stop and Tax policy irreyocably upon the
Constitution of our State-the men who,
after breaking up one Legislature and being
sionally rebuked therefor by the People,
continued their deadly hostility through the
Extra Session rendered necessary by their
factiousncss--the men who warned the
capitalists of both hemispheres that the
Canal Enlargement bonds were fraud,
and would never be redeemed who
openly eXulted in the prospect that the
Loan would not be taken, and consoled their
chagrin when it raS taken by chuckhng
over the low rate to which they had depress
ed it. And now can it be that the friends OF
the Canal Enlargement are to forget all this
long and dubious struggle and elect Lew
S Chatfeld and Company to the control OF
the State Administration in order TO =" insure
the speedy completion of that glorious
work >" Surely, all do know that, had these
men been in power, the first Million Dollars
would not have been borrowed on the prot
fered Canal Revenue bonds; for who Will
lend his money when the very borrower IS
crying out against the loan as fraud and
the security as a nullity None but oih-
GERS who rushed the loan taken could have
obtained this first Million who believes that
Chatfeld d Co. would obtain the other
