Gems-For Democratic Diadems.

James Buchanan, in 1915, while still
Federalist, made speech a, Lancaster
from which We make the following ex-
tracts. Democrats who boast they have
been democrat all their lives ard de.
spise a ,urn-coat, will receive cons iation
from those gems, and il they doubt them
in the least they can have the pleasure(?)
Of reading the whole speech by calling
at our office:
There lie a powerful faction in the u State,
opposed to he adoption of the Federal Constitu
ton. The individuals of which it was composed
we're called anti-Federalists, and were the foun.
ders of the Democratic party.
Notwithstanding their desperate Efforts the
Constitution was adopted, aud WASH gton W..
elected President
True to their original principles and their Grs,
love, the Democratic party Of fsat day bec1me
the fIiengs Of he Fresch AS THEY BECAME
MORE THE E>FMIES OF SOCIAL ORDER
But when the treaty OF peace with England
commonly called Jays treaty, was ratified by
Washing ton, torrents of pessonai abuse uas
p3uret cut by Tia democrats party npsa hts head,
They openly charged the father OF bis country
,ct.h en- fn.emtioR Of destroying his orn beloued
offspring. To such a pitch OF ingratitude were
they carried by their diabolical passions, that
they dared publicly and without the eli shtest
foundation, to accuse him of secretly putting his
hsnd into the treasury like fsio,, and appro-
priatng. without authority, the money Of the
nation to his own individual use.
After thus perscepting the savior Of bis coun-
try, how can the democratic dare to call them
selves bis discipies'
The presen, forlorn sham democracy
claim the glory OF the war OF 1912, and
claim to be anti.know nothing and OPP
posed to a National Bank. Let them
read on and see how old 'Phlebotony'
Stands on this goose
Time will not allow me to enumerate all the
other wild and wicked projects o! the Deno
GRAFT C administration. suffice 1t TO say, that
after they had deprived US of the means Of de-
fence, by destroying our navy aud disbanding
our army, after they had taken awry from Us
the power Of re creating them, by running COM
merce, the great source OF our ma ional and u-
dividual wealth-after they had, by refusing
the Bank of the United States continuation Of
their charter, embarrassed the financial Concerns
OF the Government, and withdrawn the only
universal paper medium of the country from
circulation after the people had become IN
accustomed to, and Of course unwilling to bear
TAXATION and without money in the Treasury
they rashly plunged us into a war with nation
more able 70 do US Injury than any other in the
world. What was the dreadful necessity OF
this desperate measure. Was our country in
yaded No. We're our liberties In danger -
No. Wac 1t to protect our little remaining
commerce from the injuries sustained by the
orders In council No. Commerce was not
such favorite, and the merchants wished for
no war Of that account.
To secure this foreign feeling has been the
labor OF their leaders for more than twenty
year,, and well have they been repaid for their
trouble: for 1t has been one Of the princinal
causes OF introducing and continuing thern 10
power. Immediately before the war. this for
eign influence hal embodied itself with eyery
political feeling Of a majority OF the people
p particularly in the west. It's voice was heard
40 lord At the seat Of Government, that the
President was obliged either to yield {, i.s die.
tates or TO retire from Office. The choice In this
was easily made by man Madison
who preferred his private interest to the public
good. We were, therefore, hurried into war
utterly unprepared.
Above sll, We ought TO drive from our shores
foreign influence, and cherish exclusively
American friends. Foreign ilasence has been
IN every age, the curse Of Republics. Her
lsundiced eyes see everything in false eolors.-
The thick atmosphere Of prejudice. BY which she
IL forever surrounded excludes from her szbt
The light OF reason.o
