How to influence the peoples votes 3
By the newspaper-for it includes every
other agency 1t makes known events and
facts-among all influences the chief. III
assemblies the vastcr outside audiences
which cannot gather to the State House,
the pulpit, or the stump. 1t is the con
slant interpreter of mems affairs, and OF
error or truth is the daily seed-sower.
Next November is Our political harvest
| time. As VIC SOW we shall reap.
| The Worlds sced-sowing will be fruitful
to the extent that it's circulation is widely
pushed by those who approve its aim.
The World will aim to represent and
combine tho labOrs and votes OF ...
| I. All these who find best insurance of
the peoples prosperity, peace, and pro-
gress in government administered on the
principles and in the pure practice OF JET
fcrson and Jackson, ana who descry the
fonnt and origin of the present corrup-
tions, extravaganza, misgovernment, sub
version of public liberties, and insecurity
of private rights in our rulers lawless
usurpation of interdlcted and nndelegatcf
powers-usurpation that to-day marches
deliberately on to the suhjngation oSpop-
uiar rule and the possession of dictatorial
power-for by acts of Congress General
Grant may even now destroy the freedom
of State elections, invade the States at his
pleasure, and declare martial law OF his
own mere Will.
II. All those who would maintain the
honor of republics, and would preserve
public credit by puuctual payment OF pub
lie debts.
III. All those who would cut down to
fewer and fit objects all appropriations OF
the peoples money (to-day more than dou'
bic, nearly treble, the appropriations of Il
Democratic Congress eleven Years ago
not counting annuities to Indians, pen
sions to soldiers, and interest on debt,
and who would oblige all spending of the
peolpe's money got by taxes to be with
honesty and thrift; likewise all those who
would spare little the peoples landed
estate for the landlcss millions hereafter
and stop its squandering dominions in
day upon those who already own too
much.
". All those who would reduce thu
number of commodities toXed by our tariff
, from thousands to few dozens, and 81
empty Our Custom Houses of half their of
ficials, rid the statute books of half thei
) odious snares for honesty or brides tt
: fraud, and untetter scores of our nativ,
industries.
V. All those who would lower the rate
=. also of our tariff taxes to the point of mos
easily yielding the largest reyenue-wh
would abandon the protectonist system o
reducing the public revenue whilst in
creasing the extortionate profits of fey
at the expense of all other industries.
VI. All those who would abolish ever.
unlawful tax, like that on incomes; ever,
unjust tax like that which gives banks til
peoples profits on national currency
every unequal and indeterminate tax, lik
that levied most cruelty upon the poor
4 the tax of our irredeemable paper money
