Worcester daily spy. [volume] (Worcester [Mass.]) 1850-1888, 1856-10-31

And for what What conditions did they i'm
pose? Only these, viz;-support of Fremont
and Dayton and of CHARLES SUMNER. For
those great Objects the first vital to the interests
of freedom, and the second essential to the honor
of the state, they have given up the entire state
government, the opportunity to elect their favor
lite to Congress- and the principal officers in near
ly all the counties. They procured by their sac.
rifees, the union of the Americans upon cleo
toral ticket pledged to Fremont and Dayton. To
procure the other result.-the Senator they are
compelled to look 10 thu Senate and House of
Representatives. Is it supposed that they would
be willing to trust this great interest in the hands
of men who are not thoroughly impressed with
its importance,--of men who have been hereto
fore more than suspected Of hostility,-of men
liable to executive influences which have already
proved potent for mischief? BY no means. =
They would be recreant to their duty If they fail
ed to look to the Senate and the House, with d.
rect reference to this subject. We take the
ground that when the Americans aged that the
Republicans should have the U. S. Senate, they
agreed that they should also haze the means Of
electang the Senator.
But what do we see now Tie article in the
Boston Bee, which is the organ of His Excel
lency the Governor, is an indication of a purpose
to defeat the election of Mr.. Sumner. 1t dis
closes plot for that purpose, the treachery OF
which has had no parallel in our politics. Who
are the Fillmore men, with whom the Bee speak
ing for the Governor, proposes to coalesee' Are
they not the men who are the most determined
and deadly enemies of Fremont and of Sumner
We need not describe this class of men, with
whom the Bee is now so DESTROYS of union. NO
true friend of Sumner can vote for man of this
class, and the proposition for union with them is
the basest treachery to the Republicans, such as
would fortify them in Immediately holding Con-
venton to nominate candidate for Governor =
This they cannot do; this they do not desire to
do; but it is their imperative duty,to sec that the
plot obtains no support or countenance, and that
it is promptly exposed.
The proposition to elect entire American
Ticket of Senators in this county, is part Of the
same scheme. Influences like that which moved
the Bee, governed the American County Commit
tee in proposing to give the Republicans one SEN
ator. Giving them ttoo would endanger the plot
to obtain supremacy in the Senate. Giving
them three, as the Republicans claim ed, would
dash the hopes of the ambitious aspirant for Mr..
Summers place. The whole plot is laid bare, and
it will be the fault of the Republicans of the coun
ty if it is allowed to succeed. With them rests,
in an important degree, the reelection of Charles
Simmer, and the yindieation of the honor of the
State. Let them not fail to do their duty.
Be it remembered that this article in the Bee,
has been copied with no marks of dissent, into
the Worcester Transcript the editor of which,
has professed to regard the Fillmore men with
adherence, and to found his claims to the conf
dence of anti-slayery men upon his unfaltering
opposition to that class of politicians He now
goes against Representative unions with Repub-
Leans, and for unions with the Fillmore men,
The pretext of the Transcript and Bee that the
Constitutional amendments in danger, tells
only half the story of the motive. They are in
the plot to hunkerize the Senate and House, and
defeat Sumner Let their counsels be put to
naught!
