registered without tax receipt, but he
is not fully qualified TO vote without It.
II he has no receipt his registration will
be marked, TO be qualified" The law
contemplates, Ist, an assessment; end
payment Of tax; 3rd, registration. The
registration must be done by the taxable

The voting is done in rooms, ana the.
crowd cannot come within thirty feet Of
the entrance. The voter passes in and
up to the election officers, where if he is
fully qualified, he is handed a ballot
which contains all the tickets being voted

IN his jackson Day" speech Mr.. Cleve
land entered into considerable detail ir
eulogizing "Old Hickory and insisted
that his example should be followed by
Aae@ocrats of the present day. Inas.
much as Mr.. Cleveland spoke particularly
OfJackson's fidelity to duty aud courage
it seems singular that he should overlook
aud ignore the most striking and signif-
cant illustration ofthOse virtues supplied
by Gen. Jackson during the whole course
Of his administration. It was in 1Saa
when the free trade Democrats of South
Carolina failing in their efforts to compel
the repeal Of the protective tariff, deter
mined to strike it down that they eucoun-
tered a lion in the way in the person of
Gen. Jackson. "By the God of Heaven.
I will uphold the laws, " he exclaimed, as
he took his clay pipe from his mouth and
shivered iton table in the White House. |
He was as good as his word, as the free.
trade Democrats of the South soon
learned. He Immediately ordered war
vessel into the port of Charleston, and
sent Gen. Scott there to take command
in person and prevent opposition to the
of the tariff duties. Co-operat-
ing with Jackson, Congress passed an act
10 strengthen his hands in the enforce
nent ofthe law, and while this measure
vas greeted throughout the South with
.ries of force bill" aud "bloody BILL"
t proved, in fact,to have enough "force" :,
n it to attain its purpose and viudicate :
Iational authority against the attempt to
mpair and degrade it. Perhaps Mr.. ~
,levelaud did not allude to this event in a
ackson's career for the reason that it
isplays "old Hickory" as the political pl
rogenitor Of that class of loyal, patriotic 81
war Democrats, who, thirty years later, o'
und their way into the Republican
lrty, there permanently to remain.

THE history Of Andrew Jackson's two
presidential terms is crowned with lessons
that ought to be needed by wildcat finan-
ciers. Every evil of reckless political
bankingwas then exemplifed, and every
one Of these evils would beduplicated by
me Alliance plan. The idea that State
taxation or land loans could be paid out
of the profits Of wildcat banking is the
most pronounced lunacy. When man
can lift himself by his bootstraps, or make
water run up hill, or invent perpetual
motion, then he can abolish taxation and
run State Governments on the interest
derived from loans of fiat money on Germ
and potato security. Let us try to show
the American farmer, mechanic and la
borer that good money is the safeguard
of business.

chance to stick her head to the eye
lashes in our Uncle Sans feed trough.
Being badly beaten with Hancock, the
Union soldier and life long Democrat,
as it had been with Greeley, the life
long Abolitionist and Protectionist, this
miserable old party again changed its
tactics, and in 1884 nominated Grover
Cleveland, who had been on neither
side during the late war, and who had
no record. By false %pretenses, by
claiming in New York and other tariff
States that Mr.. Cleveland was a friend
of American manufacturers, this faded
and jaded old witch, calling herself
Democracy, finally secured, through
Republican divisions, the Presidency in
1884, only to be kicked out of power
four years later, after she had shown
the cloven foot of free trade and hos
tility to the Union soldier. That De-
mocracy will get a black eye next No
vember, there be no sort of doubt.
