Kenosha tribune & telegraph. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1856-1859, 1858-10-14

The Frequent repetition of the principal editor
of the Kenosha Tribune 81 Telegraph, of the
insinuatiOn that this paper is hostile to Buchan
an, and the national democratic administration
is no compliment to his honor, veracty or de-
cency.-KenOsha Times.
The above specimen of democratic courtesy.
is perhaps entitled to passing notice. We
have disposition to place the editor of the
Times, or any other individual IN a false posi-
ten; the conclusions that he had wandered from
the democratic fold, were indicated from the
tone OF his editorials. We will state briefly the
foundation for these conclusions, and leave the
public to judge of their correctness.
1t is fair TO conclude those to be the friends OF
the administration, who support its measures
and advocate its doctrines. On the other hand
it ia reasonable to conclude that those who dc
not advocate tie doctrines Of the administration
but endorse aul applaud its Acknowledged enc
mics, must be c.assed with the political snemie,
of the administration.
Senator Douglas is accounted an enemy Of
Buchanan's administration the Washington
Union, which speaks for Buchanan holdsDoug.
las continually up to its readers as traitor te
| the democracy. Other administration journals
denounce him in like manner, as occupying a
hostile attitude to the President, AS an evil
dence Of Buchanan's strong political hostility to
Douglas and ali who endorse him, he has for the
past few months been displacing from Office, en-
pecially in Illinois all such as are known to be
the avOWed friends of Douglas. The attitude Of
H..
import snce.
Now is it not proper conclusion that those
who spouse Douglas, cannot be friends Of the
administration What is the position of the
Kenosha Times III the premises! Not long since
the Times gave an elaborate notice of Douglas
and his speech in Chicago sulogising him as
a Roma" eOnqaerOr returning from the uars !.
OF the political position of Douglas, the Time,
gave the following emphatic endorsement:
'Mr Douglas in his speech with characteristic
clearness, defined his positon-the position up.
on which himself and the great democratic party
OF the Union have stood heretofore and upon
which they now stand. There is nothing new
to the democracy in the principles of action he
lays down--no sentiment to which the heart OF
every democrat cannot heartily respond"
Douglas in his Chicago speech to which the
article in the Timrs was devoted lays down his
platform of principles; these principles were
secuted by the Washington Union as political
vagaries and distractions adverse to the senti-
ments of the democratic party. Yet the Times
rpeaks of tho Douglas platform in glowing terms
as follows:
upon this platform the democracy of the
Union stand one and indivisible facing the
foe"
We will not trouble our readers with further
extracts of political sentiments which have ap-
peared at various periods in the Times newspa
per, particularly popular sovereignty doctrines
which are in conflict with doctrines enunciated
by the accredited organs of the national admin
stration. Nor is it necessary to mention the
emphatic endorsement by the Times of Beriah
Brown, who has put his testimony on record
against the leading measures of Buchsnan's ad-
ministration, in his letter to the Janesville con-
vention. The candid reader may Judge of the
fairness of the conclusion ss to the arrangement
OF the Times from Buchanan.
