Radical Democracy and J. C. Fremon'


Radical Democracy and J. c. Fremon'.
CaliaorBis's 7erfes, scrub has at length shown
bis hand. 1t was always known in this Stale
that j. c. Fremont was man of very small
caliber, entirely void Of the talent necessary for
q statesman or military chiefiain, and bow our
worthy President allowed himself 10 be imposed
upon by this miserable schemer, is impossible
to imagine. The total Of Fremont, as given by
an old acquaintance Of his. is fully endorsed in
this State by every man who has ever come in
contact with this great an of the present day,
to the effect that he is pathfinder that never
found trail-a statesman that never made
speech-a General that never fought battle
% millionaire not worth a -. The ouly
claim that Fremont has TO notorietv is that he
caused the death of the noble and lamened
Lyon, through his cowardice and imbecility;
and that be has never failed to rob the people
and the government on every occasion where
be had an opportunity If be had not done
enough to eternay damn him before the war
commenced, bis military administration in Mis-.
Eouri would 6ll the measure The thieves of
California were nobly represented BY Fremont,
wv oods & Co. No honest man would ever
have allowed /. c. Woods, Fremont's private
bscretary, to have slept in bis barn with
hound pup in reach of him, knowing, as Ere
mont did, that Woods had not only robbed the
mercantile community Of this State, but had
villainously robbed the widow and orphan Of
The pittance entrusted to his supposed honor.
Now this is the creature that arrays himself as
The opponent Of Mr.. Lincoln, true and loyal
man, and one Of the most faithful Presidents
hat our Government ever had Fremont now
heads what is termed the Radical Democratic
party. What is this Democracy? 1t is like /
the other kind in some respects. Composed of
Poreheaded radical abolitonists, who desire 10
have the war prosecuted for the sole purpose
pf abolishing negro slavery, regardless of the /
Constitution or the Union, and set of political
thieves who fostered themselves upon the Gov /
ernment during the excitement of the first out /
break of the rebellion, but were discarded by /
pur noble Chief Magistrate as soon as their /
characters could be known. This is a true
picture of the Radical Democracy They have !
stolen the name Democrat as it is used by any /
faction that are desirous Of overthrowing the /
government, Constitution and laws of the land |
Now j. c. Fremont is just the tool for such /
a job, with aiders and abettors. The doctrine
Pf this Democracy is just as reasonable as jeff
Davis Democracy. The only difference is that
peff's wing have been armed and have taken
be field, and all that have any manliness about
hem are willing to meet our noble Union army
hostile array, and stand or fall by the chances
Pf war. But this miserable faction of traitor.
fneak around in the loyal States with other
traitors, endeavoring to undermine and destroy
be Government that protects their miserable
farcasses, and has furnished them food and
faIment; when, TO DO them justice, they would
pc transported to Dahomey amongst their
Pettcrs as they are more fitting 10 be the slaves
Pf Negro king than citizens of free and
glorious Republic. This faction will be of
great benefit to the Union party, notwi,hstand-
fng the Copperhead rejoicing as it will relieve
The party of the odium the Copperbeads have
fndeavored to cast on it by being connected
|Tith such clique, and at the same time give
! he weak knecd conservatives" an opportunity
know that they can support loyal, conserva
i've men by polling their votes for Lincoln and
johnson. The platforms of both kinds of
Democracy are the quintessence of treason, and
+ he chiefs of each Democratic facion-Fre
lnont and Nallardigham-wl be lost in
oblivion, unless they are resurrected TO pass
Through the fiery ordeal of military tribunal,
when the charges will be treason to their
|Government, and the verdict Gu,ity
