VIOLENTLY ANTI NEGRO
Remarkable Speech Delivered In LII
inois Legislature Reproduced
From Old File Of Cairo
Paper of 1857.

| One of the old Cairo papers, in
| possession of a Cairoite. from which
| some extracts were reproduced in
| last Sundays Bulletin, contains ex
| ten5ive reference to speech by Hon.
John Dougherty, father of Mr.. George
among us.
| Honorable John Dougherty lived out
a long life among the people Of
Southern Illinois, practicing law, and
fulfilling The many arduous dHties Of
| a politician and office holder. He
was state senator, circuit Judge and
! lieutenant governor, besides filing
several minor positions of trust His
politics was intensely Democratic I'M
m after the breaking out of the war.
In 1860 he was a candidate for a
state office on what Judge Douglas
called the DANTE partys ticket .
This party was known in Illinois as
the breckenridge party and they
bitterly opposed Douglas because his
Democracy was too weak on the
slavery question" When the cleo
ton was over, Mr. Dougherty issued
through q Cairo paper an, address to
the world, reading Douglas and his
quarter million of deluded followers
out Of the Democratic party, and
solemnly warned the approaching
Charleston Convention not to admit
The Democratic (Douglasl delegates
from Illinois. Mr. Dougherty attend
ed the Charleston convention, and it
is said, made, from the steps of the
hotel. after that convention had dis
solved, a most able and fiery address
to the Southern people on the sub
ject of the state of the country But
afterwards he ran upon the Republi-
can ticket for lieutenant governor of
Illinois. and was elected and served
out his term with great fidelity to his
party.

MADE A REMARKABLE SPEECH.

While a member of the Illinois gem
eral assembly Mr.. Dougherty made
speech. which is reproduced in the
copy of the old paper above referred
to. and which will probably be read
with deep interest by many and with
| surprise by some, for it stamps the
man who was afterwards a Republican
| lieutenant governor of Illinois, as the
Ben Tillman of that time. The
speech was delivered against the prop
osltion to print 20 600 copies of Gov.
Bissell's inaugural address, and was
delivered in January, 1857 Following
are extracts:
Mr.. Speaker:-The decision of the
immediate question, whether or not
we shall order twenty thousand cop
les of his eXcellency's Gov. Bissell's
message, or a smaller number, is one
of comparative Indifference to me;
and had he like his predecessor, con
fined his communication to the sup
ject of Legislation within the scope OF
our legislative powers. ! would have
voted for the highest number pro
posed. But he has thought proper to
present us with a dish of aboltOnism,

licanism, matters foreign 10 the rights

tios of the United States. which de.

MIR. JAMEsON's EXCUSE.

Allan Jameson makes the excuse for
his arbitrary rule of the Republican
party that it has been done in the in
terest of John Cleghorn.
If this were true it was certainly
not necessary and has done Mr. Cleg-
horn vastly more harm than good.
The Republicans of Fremont county
are solid for John Cleghorn, and it
would have been impossible to get a
county convention together that would
have been unfriendly to his interest
About every Republican in the
county would like to see John Cleg-
horn reappointed warden, and his in
terests would have been as safe in the
hands of any convention that might
have been selected-even If not a sin
gle guard or pen" employe had gone
to primary.
But the Republicans in general do
not like to feel that they are domi-
mated absolutely by the penitentiary.
Mr.. Cleghorn himself has never been
over-officious in local politics and he
has always used good sense and good
taste. But he has at times had en-
ployes who have sought to rule things
locally.
Two years ago, before Allan Jane
son had received his reward, no one
ever fought more bitterly than he
against penitentiary rule. But this
year, when he has command of the
penitentiary forces. no one ever before
him has used them SO openly and eff
fectually.
When the penitentiary enters local
politics it is usually in the interest of
some Denver politicians, as most of
the employees at the pen" are selected
at the suggestion Of Denver bosses.
And Fremont county people feel that
the further we can remove our local
affairs from Denver politics the better
for us.
OF course, in Canon City. we do not
feel the effect so seriously, for we all
have friends and interests at the
pen; but great dissatisfaction pre-
walls over the county. At Florence
and at the coal camps open rebellion
exists, and for the pen" to go ahead
and dominate the campaign and the
ticket this fall means sure defeat at
the polls.
OF course, Allan Jameson, with the
help of fifty guards, might be able to
control the Canon City primary and,
through that, even the convention, but
he has never shown any marked ability
Cañon City record., 1906-09-13
A ONE-MAN PARTY.

There is no use denying the fact any
longer. There is at present a more
serious revolt in the Republican ranks
than ever stirred Fremont county be-
fore.
The Record has tried to suppress the
matter and has done it's best to keep
harmony for the sake of success, but
the dissatisfaction is so keen and it has
penetrated to so many precincts in the
county that it is no longer any secret.
1t all comes about over the Unsuitable
greed of Allan Jameson for promi-
nence and power.
Two years ago Mr. Jameson demand
ed the county chairmanship as his
price of peace with an element of the
party he had been fighting bitterly.
In the spring he appointed himself
State Committeeman to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of Mr.. Raynolds-
most unheard of proceeding for a
county chairman.
Having these two places and being
deputy warden he has used his. every
power to control every primary and
convention and force his personality
on the people.
Having accomplished his purpose as
to State and Congressional delegations
he is now busy, 1t is said, intrenching
himself for the next county convention
SO as to perpetuate himself in the
county craftsmanship and force the Sc
lection of either himself or a man he
controls for state committeeman.
And here is where the rub comes.
Interested Republican candidates
know that If Allan Jameson controls
the next convention as he did the last,
and forces himself in as county chair
man, it's all off with them.
1t is freely stated that with Jameson
in the lead and ticket put up by peni-
tentiary influence, the Republicans
might just as well save worry and ex-
pense by not putting up a local ticket
this fall.
