talents Of gold and shekeIs of silver for their TEN

sometimes called the Pacific, it will 90 through 0ma.

% For they feared if the Counsellor was sent
from south Platte, that be would use his influence
to get appropriations for his own section to counter
balance those given to the North, and the great rail
road would be located In its natural channel, on the
south Of the River.
q And the Chief Rulers over the land Of Jonathan
who were called the Administration, were exceed
lngly anxious that Experience should be chosen, for
he was their friend.
25 Now Old Buck and his friends sent epistles to
their friends, and to the officials in Nebraska, and ad
Vlsed them what TO do. Then did all the officials
suddenly profess to be friends to Stephen, whose
surname was Douglas and they went to ard fro
through TIE land, and spake to the people, and per-
sunded them to cast their lots for Experience.
20 And the Administrator had delivered much
money into the hands Of the officials at the City Of
Omaha.
80 And the Oficials hired men who had ready
tongues, men who scrupled not to lie and to Islander,
as well as those who were upright and honorable
men who were well skilled in all the arts Of sOphis-
try, shrewd lawyers and bufoOn priests, who with
sounding brass and tinkling cymbal, could deceive
the simple and unwary, ADD make them think right
was wrong and wrong was rIght-WhO could distUrt
beauty till il appeared hideous, and embelish lOGth-
some deformity till it seemed altogether lovely.
81 And they Travelled to aud fro and up and down
through tho land, and with much elOquence did they
glOrfy and exhRlt Thomas Jefferson and the democ-
racy of his time and some of them did invent scores
Of falsehoOds and ISLANDERS against Samuel and his
tribe, and perverted the history Of their country, and
resorted to every trick by which they thought they
could deceive the people.
80 But about the present Democrat Party Of
James buchanan, and his re-eating-disuniUn advl-
sors, and his corrupt officials, his extrayagant squan-
derlng Of millions Of pieces Of silver, MS beheading
officers who could not pronounce L%ecompton his
trhing and vacilatiOn with the MOrmons, and his
violation Of pledges about the public land, few Of
them opened their mouthes.
80 For thy knew that these things had caused
want, and poverty, and suffering drought the land.
80 But in all Nebraska there was not found men
enough to speak for Experience, so they did send to
the province Of Iowa for a High Priest, who wanted
railroads fom iO1UG to erteRd on west in Nebraska;
saying come over and help US.
80 This Priest was n man Of much belly, and also
was wise and powerful. He could make men be
lIeve whatever he pleased, so that his fame spread
over al the land. And it came to pass that his ad-
vice was asked as a Lawgiver and when men were
charged with crimes and defalcatiOns of thousands
Of pieces of silver, they would send for hin, and
give him gold, and he would make a speech unto the
people and "get up afuror," and the people would
say, as with one voice, the man is innocent, and they
would let him go.
So To evil doors he was as terrible as an army with
banners; and timid women in the village where he
lived did say they feared to meet him on the high
way more than a wild boar of the forest. On the
Sabbath he preached the everlasting Gospel; neither
did he cease doing good when the day ended, and
the night came on, but would 60 with the young men
of the City, and stone the habitations of harlcts, and
trample the wicked under his feet.
81 There was a certain Son Of Belial, living nigh
unto the home Of Samuel-who had gained much
money by taking horses that belonged to other men,
and he hated Samuel, and he swore he would be
revenged upon him, even if he had to destroy his
life. And when it was told unto him that money
would be given to those who would persuade the
people not to cast their lots for Samuel, be girded
up his loins, and got him up to Omaha, and bargain
I'd with the Elders of the City, and they gave him
thirty pieces of silver, and be went to the uttermOst
parts Of Nebraska, where the people knew him not,
and with smooth words he talked SANDER, and he
was cheered and applauded by Old Bucks Tribe, but
the Republic ms would not harken TO his voice.
3S AT Omaha every man was u. gcd to go for Elk
pcrience, on sectional grounds; Tut south Of the
Platte, all the agents Of Omaha strJve to make the
people believe that local matters had nothing to do
in the election.
80 And it came to pass that in Brownville, there
were divers who were deceived by the crafty cum
ming Of the men Of Omaha, and of the servants of
Old Buck. And they closed their ears lest they
should hear, and shut their eyes, lest they should
see.
40 There were also others, who, though not de
ceivcd yet were numbered for Experience. They
were Influenced by various mOtives-some,b ec8Usi
fhnu thu nnH FrianHa Of laFnn1 tho
Chief Ruler, aud some because they owned parcels
Of ground in Omaha, and some because they were
to be paid three hundred skehois Of silver, and some
because they hated azd were jealOSS Of Robert the
Printer, and some because they loved slavery with
all its evils better than freedom, for divers OF them
had said, on the corners of the streets and in the
Market Places, they "I1ouid r0te to introduce S}d-
rery here, to-day, If they could thereby bring It here, !"
but others. more cautious, had answered them say
ing, Hold your peace and be quiet, or We will pro-
duce confusion among US. Do not all our Orators
tell the people every day, from every stump, that
not one man in oil Nebraska wants slavery here?
Al And some of the tribe, WIN were the most
violent said, If there is not as many on our side ms
there IS on the side of Samuel, We can make more
noise than they can, we can appear on the corners OF
the streets while the Mud Sills are laboring, and
passers by will think we exist in great numbers.
AZ And we will make many of the candidates who
are not of the Democratic Tribe act with us to get
our votes, for they are afraid of US, but they know
the Republicans are more moderate, and we can get
their votes without our being reckond amongst them
43 Now David the Merchant, and David The He
brew, and Eli the Scribe, and Seymour tn lr'n-
ter, and John, and Gordon the Money lender, and
Walter, and Thompson's Colt, and Daniel, sur-named
the Rash, and Cuts and divers others were constant
ly stirring up the people.
Al Their principal mouth-piece was Daniel, who
was n very clever little man-ready of speech, and
skilled in the use Of those weapons kown by the
names Of irony and sarcasm, but he was yoWng and
lacked understanding.
IS His memory, also, was poor. He soon forgot
that Samuel had been opposed to aDnexing South
Platte to Kansas, though all other men remember
Cd it. He also forgot that all talk about "tbe glori-
Gus cd Democratic Party, Of the days of Polk, was
in his opinion, contemplate dem goguism." But
IN his speeches for the man whose surname was
Experience, he did glorify and magnify the old par
ty, and the man Polk.
