WOODVILLE, Macon CO., June &c.
Mr.. EprroR: Believing that you and your
readers are DESTROYS OF reading something
touching the present canvass, however weak
the subject may be treated, induces me 10
write.
The candidates are fairly before the peo-
pie, and how great the contrast. One pos
sessing and advocating, with powerful elo-
quence and demonstration, national policy
policy that is for the public good-the other
possessing qualification, secession and dis
,tnion and il he does not advocate such
doctrine now. his votes heretofore show
clearly that such haze been his principles
which is greater condemnation than if he
were to advocate such doctrines and vote to
the contrary. This man is CLAIBORNE
Fox JACKSON; the notorious For: the other,
JAMES ]. LINDLEy.
Some may ask if we have nullifers
among us? We certainly have, and always
have had since we have been an independent
nation. There have always been opposers
10 our form Of Government, and one Of the
main chiefs of those opposers is Fox JACK
SON. Modification took rise in 1920,
when Missouri was admitted into the Union;
but the ilustrious CLAY met and gave it a
powerful stroke, by which it nearly became
extinct. The abatement, or extinction, was
of but short duration it was again kindled
in 1888. The spark that was left made
mighty fire. South Carolina was the State
in which notification at that time took rise,
and mighty rise it was-so powerful that
dissolution of the union like TO have been
the termination. JOHN c. CALHOUN was
the leader of the nulifers in those days
speak o., and yet claimed to be friend and
advocate of the constitution and not only
Of the constitution, but of Gen. JAcKsoS
also, who was then President of the United
States. A law was passed by the Congress
of the United States with regard TO colec
ton of imposts, or American duties, which
received the appreciation of the President
(Gen. JAcKsoN) in 1898, (the time speak
of notification taking its second rise.) The
law was declared by Calhoun, and other
leaders in South Carolina, 10 be unconstitu.
tional, and an infringement upon their rights
as asovcreign State. Before South Carolini
would adhere to the law, Gen. Jackson hat
10 threaten her with force Of arms, ant
actually did issue proclamation to that eff
., feet. Notification then remained silen
until lS49, date that will long be remem
bered by every Missourian and historian
because the monster, modification, that Jack
son had killed, again made its appearance il
The Missouri Legislature, with Fox JACK
SON for its father.
Fox Jackson had, without doubt, beel
ttaored by Calhoun, and sought dissolution
of the union; and should many such men Al
he is be elected to Congress, a dissolution
would be the consequence. But CLAIB. cal
. not be elected. Should he he elected, ant
3 possessed sound principles, he would no
, represent This district, because his interest
, are in Saline County, where he would nov
e be raising hemp, if the bogus conventio
held in Bloomington had not nominated hir
>, for Congress. He owns no property in thi
:. district, and lives in rented house i
A Fayette. AS soon as he is defeated fc
: Congress, which will be the first Monde
: in August, he can move 10 Saline, and d'
n vote his attention 10 the raising of hemp.
g Wings! be of cheer! We will undoub
edly be victorious. We have a gallal
Il standard bearer; he is worthy Of rallyin
i TO. Do all you can by using fair NEAR
}, 10 elect JAMES ]. LINDLEY, and yo
L will undoubtedly receive remuneratir
~ for your perseverance. JUROR.
