looking over the reports of the debates in the House

who characterized its generous spirit Pharsaica phi

the half century with denying upon popular vote,

SECRET POLITICAL ACTION.


1t is somewhat difficult TO combat know-nothingsm just
now, because the initiated not agreed to its
principles Among the order great objection exists
TO its secrecy feature Mr. Wilder the president at the
Fitchburg festival had the good to object to it
while old sagers who locking upon the ordar with
watery mouths, like John NJ Clayton, openly denounce
this Objectionable feature 1t is but week two since
the New York True American, leading organ of know
nothngism, fred regular Paxhan into it. 1t alleged
that the Inconvenience of secret associations have
become apparent to every one and that IA secret caba IN
paraby falls into the hands Of scheing designers" The
reader may Judge of the soundnes Of the argument by the
strength of these just allegations All this looked like sin
cere repentance and earnest reormaon for secret po
cal associations must be regarded by all but the unreec
ing the demagogical hostile to republican nstitu-
tons.
But atas nauGndts alter circumstances alter
the congressional signs point another way One Of the
know-nothing champions N p Banks r has stepped into
the ring in defence of the secrecy feature of know
nothngism and such defence of it has not before been
een What has the honorable gentleman sad and what
does he mean? We have only reporters words and that
too by telegraph But matter We have, undopotcd-
y the basis des Of the speech clear and exact if do not
have connected supporting argument and this is full
defence OF the secrecy feature of the knownohng order
II is not in the power of to harmonize with repub-
can institutions vast secret order oah-bound TO
exercise of what should be the Independent action of free

Austrian the despo,ism of the lodge that
to punish the free citizen for exercise of his fran

where is left free to combat It, And IL n F. Banks

So certainly is the scorct feature Of tie knownothns o
der anii-Amecan and surely is il of dangerous tenden
Cyl that would trust its fate with the order Itself and
be sure of its ultimate abolition Sure We that right
minded citizens whom could name who, without proper
consideration have gone into The order, never long
continue to sanction this feature by their countenance
"Thank God ain free r exclaimed late mem
