proclaimed, when he declared himself in
favor of the past and pledged himself to
the future policy of the Administration, as
he did without qualification or reserve, at
the Locofoco State Convention. The fol-
lowing are the views of the President,
part Of which we find prepared to our hand
IN the Pittsburgh Gazette, They embody
Mr.. Stuart's creed, because he has adopted
them as indicating the policy of the Ad-
ministration and showing its acts. II IS
modern Democracy, and as Mr.. Stuart has
avowed that next to his God-cven better
than bis country, or the State which has
honored. him, or tho principles of justice
and humanity he loves the Demoera-
ey, it is the creed in which he believes,
and which he will carry out as he has,
should ho by any dreadful disppnsation Of
Providence become Governor Of Michigan
Lot Us not forget the following from
President Buchanan's letter to Prof. Sill
man, August 18th, 1851: ,orrifc
"SLAVERY existed at that period u.s.
SAY and still erists IN KANSAS ETUN-
DER THE CONSTITUTION OF THE
UNITED STATES. This point has at
last been EFFINALLY DECIDED
by the highest tribunal Judge Taney)
known e. our la,Ds. How COULD IT EVER
BEEN DOUBTED IS a MISTER y"
Or from his Message
at has been solemnly adjusted by the
highest Judicial Tribunal, that EySLA-
VERY EXISTS IN KANSAS by VIR-
TUE OF THE CONSTITUTION OF
THE UNITED STATES.
"EB- Kansas is therefore, as much A
SLAVE STATE as GEORGIA or
SOUTH CAROLINA"
Or this, from the Dred Scott decision:
"The African race was $50 far inferior
that they had no rights Which the sOhite
man pas 6oxnd to respect; and that the
negro might justly and lawfully be reduced
to Slavery for his benefit"
Or, turning from these official declara-
tions, look for moment at the speeches of
leading men, champions Of the Democrat
ic party. Read this:
From Albert G. Browns Speech, (Miss) July IL, 1887
81 heard it from the Presidenfs (Buchan-
an's) own lips, that this thing of SQUAT
TER SOVEREIGNTY was one of THE
MOST DAMNABLE HERESIES that
was ever broached in this or any other
country, and that he acould leave nothing
undsne TO THROTTLE 1T. y
He (the President) had no doubt that Wal
ker's appointment would be cancelled"
From Gov Hammond's late Speech.
"AH the opposition measures Of ,ohich
the South has complained IN tho last
thirty years she herself inaugurated.--
ER- WASHINGTON AND JEFFER-
SON, IN THE MATTER OF SLAVE.
RY, SET THE EVIL EXAMPLE.
From Hon. l. NJ. Keitt's recent Speech.
"The Democratic party, he thought, wa'
sounaer now than IL had been for years. -
II ,pas so because NOW THE SOUTH
WAS A MAJORITY IN TIA Z
PARTY, and had driven off from its
numbers all the tainted, timid members OF
it from the North. He would not predict
but in his judgement, the Black Repu6h
cans would ,cin the election in 1907
"!tIe went to Washington at the begin
ming of the last session resolved to Oppose
the Administration, but when he got there
he found Mr.. Buchanan upon the platform
of THE SOUTH 1t was then ne dc
termined to sustain the President cordially
and ungrudgingly."
From Col. orr's Speech on the same occasion >.
| "With regard to slavery, he thought
better protected under the government thai
it had been for thirty gears. AS to th'
future. he was for cooperating with tn
DEMOCRATIC PARTY. He would g
into convention, go into caucus, seek t.
have an influence in it by rulSng and con
trolling It."
Do not forget either, Republicans c
Michigan, that Mr.. Stuart has endorse
and approves now the efforts of Mr., Bu
chanan and his Administration, to force
Constitution upon the people Of Kansas
MADE BY THE BORDER RUFFIANl
of MISSOURI, establishing FOREVEl
the curse of Slavery in that Territory
though NINE-TENTHS of them had d
clared their unalterabte opposition TO IL
Though Mr.. Stuart voted against this pol
cy with the hope thereby Of securing n
election TO the Senate, he now, when Mt
hope is blasted, AVOWS HlMSELF y
FAVOR OF 1T FOR THE PURPOSl
of SECURING THE SUPPORT OF THE AL
MINISTRATION TO ELECT Hi
GOVERNOR.
Let thc Republicans of Michigan ais
remember that Mr.. Stuart also atSrms a
those acts of the national Administratio
by which the expenses of the General Go
ernment have been increased from TwEl
rY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS under Tyler an
Forty EIGHT MILLIONS OF DOLLARS und'
Fillmore, to the alarming sum Of ON
, |. HUNDRED AND FOUR MILLION
: OF DOLLARSl
! This is Mr.. Stuart's natural platforr
and these are the principles and this Il
: policy which the people Of Michigan a

! permanently upon the country by electil
