DupIicity Exposed.

The Journal seems be rather chafed this hot wealth
er, under the speeches Of Gov. Wright in which the
Governor exposes the enormites OF the Bankrupt law
which General Scott his celebrated political letter
lS4 fully ndorses and denies he Wing paternity Of the
law after the following style:
"At the time of the passage OF the Bankrupt act Of
l54l II met with the approval OF nineenths of the peo
pie fahd prominent Democrats only voted for IT, but
thousands of them avaled themselves Of its benefits
DIR. K. Walker the Democratic leader In the Senate
was its author"
Ii is useless for the Journal TO deny what the record
proves. The Bankrupt law was a Wing measures re-
commended by Whig President; introduced into the
Senate by Mr.. Henderson Whig; referred to the com.
mittee, Of which Mr.. Berrien chairman and Messrs
Prentss, Walker, Clayton and Kerr were the remaining
members. All Wings, except Mr.. Walker. Mr.. Ber-
rien whig reported the bill back The Senate, and it
was passed by the following vote:
YEAs-Messrs Barrow, Bates, Berrien, Choaie, Clay
of KY, Clayton Dixon, Evans Henderson, Huntington,
Kerr Merrick Miller Morehead, Mouton, Phelps, Por-
ter, Simmons, Smith of Ind, Southard, Tallmadge,

Mr. Walker, il will be seen, was not the author of

The only other Democrat who voted for the bill Mr.

ACE of these facts the Journal has the erontery to as
vert that was not party measure, and that it
with the "approval of nine teahs Of the people," when
he editor well knows it of the most odious
measures that adopted by any party and
rbuted much very much, the overthrow of the Wing
party in lS44 The editor then turns round and with
bold and naked duplicity asserts that Mr.. King, Mr..
Hayne. and other Democrats, voted for Bankrupt bill
1925 and 27 when he well knows that the bill which
was before the Senate, at that time, bill for
compulsory bankrupt law, and not voluntary one. A
bill providing that creditors might force dishonest debt
to go into bankruptcy, and dsgorge their property
under OATH that it, under the direction of the law might

l841 permit persons of their accord voluntarily

The Gun Spiked.

The leaders Of the Locoioco party were IN strong
hopes that they could make votes against Gen Scott
because he had expressed himself favorable TO the
Bankrupt Law at the time Of IFS passage Now that 1t
is established by the Congressional records that Mr.
King, their candidate for Vice President voted for n
more odious Bankrupt Law in 1927 " that gun is
spiked, and they will be compelled direct their at
tenton 10 some other ''hobby ."-Indiana Journal.

issue is fairly made and you and your candidate will be
