Glass Legislation, the Selfsbness Of Capital,
the Tyranny of Combination, the Oppression OF
q Majority, or the Exactions Of q Party.
Il will hold no fellowship with the Wing
and Democratic organisations believing that
the main issues on which they have been ar
rayed against each other arc obsolete or settled,
and that they are now chiefly used by the Sec.
tional Interest Of Slavery, TO impair tho love Of
Liberty natural to the American mind, and to
subjugato the American People to it's rule Dis
claiming all connection with them, il will yet
svmpathizo with those Of their adhercnts who
arc honestly seeking through them TO advance
the csubstantialint Of the country, although
il must believe that thoy have not chosen the
better way.
