hr. EDITOR: beg your indulgence toglve
a few hints TO the Benton men Of the third
Congressional district through your paper. |
The time is close at hand when our citizens |
will be called upon 10 cast their votes for a
suitable person to represent the third con-
gresslonal district in Congress. This cleo
ton is Of much mere importance than any
election which has taken place in this State
Tor years. The friends Of both candidates
are sanguine in their belief that their favor
lite will be The fortunate one TO represent our
interests in Congress. No means will be
left untried by the friends of the two cam
didates to secure their election. On the first
Monday in next month all who have no
pride for the prosperity of this State, and
also desire TO support c. F. Jackson the
prime mover Of notification in Missouri
and the disorganizer Of the Democratic par
ty, can do so.
1t will not be denied that c. F. Jackson
was the author Of all this political quarrel
in Missouri; and now he has the brascn i'm
pudcace TO ask Benton men TO vote for him
this is decidedly cool ! To the Bentonites
of this district he is now with smiles and
pretty looks paying his best respects and
making love with the fair maiden emblemat-
ic OF your party, and secretly wishes 10
take you in as you We're at the Jefferson
City Conv ntion, some fifteen months since,
where the Bentcnites supposed the great
quarrel had been amicably adjusted. Fair
words were promised, but how soon were
all the solemn pledges broken? The Anti
Benton party now hold all the lucrative Of
fees in this State, although in the minority.
None Of Col. Benton's friends are to be the
recipients Of any so long as this Anthem
ton party holds the reiNs of government
Claib. Fox Jackson is well pleased in fact
highly grafJied whenever Benton man is
defeated in obtaining even the smallest Of
flee IN the gift of the people he has sworn
eternal Vengeance TO Col. Benton and TO his
triends-yet he is trying TO draw wool over
the eyes of Benton's friends in order to
hide his past infamous course towards that
party. Benton men beware This treach-
erouS chieitain is even now marShalling his
forces TO make you once more his dupes.-
Come out and show yourselves men who are
men or knuckle TO his bidding. You are
free TO act and choose for yourselves; YOU
alone will be responsible for your votes. If
you do not vote for jackson YOU are not
bound TO vote for Lindley.
Fox jackson has been in office a large
number of years, and to this day he can
show nothing he has done 10 enhance our
interest, nor can he tell us of single act
he caused TO be passed which entities him
to seat in Congress. The productions of
the several years lie has been in ourlegisla-
ture turn out 10 be perfect blank except
his trickery towards Col. Benton and Col.
Benton's friends.
The Benton men are now required TO
choose between two evils, for there can be
no third choice: it will be Jackson or Lind
ley. Benton men be cautious, or all will be
over with you! c. F. Jacksons defeat at
this next election will be an everlasting tr-
umph to your cause, and death blow to
notification in Missouri. Be on your guard
how you vote at the next election; remem.
Der your cause and your country's cause
Do not act without first giving this subject
your candid reflection. Think of JaeiSson's
treaeherous course towards you and Of his
secret hostility to your friends. You will al.
, ways find this nulIifer opposed to the in
, terests Of cur beloved Missouri; his acts
prove it! Let the nulifer share the fate
that he caused Col. Benton to receive, which
will be worse to him than dose of bitter
WORMWOOD.
