The personal popularity of jackson
carried the day and won him the
victory in the campaign of 1882. When
1t came to vote, many who were Bit
terly hostile to the old hero's policy
regarding the bank ranged themselves
on his side.
Jackson's latest attack on the bank
was made year later, when he ordered

posits were placed in state banks
throughout the country. 1t was during
