Biddle Headed
National Bank

At the time, Nicholas Bid,
die was head Of the bank, a
brilliant, cultured, handsome
man who had had expert
ence in diplomacy. He was
not gravely concerned, and
hoped to persuade Jackson
to a new charter at the
proper time through diplo-
matte methods.
But the leaders Of the
Wing party had other no.
tions.
These were remarkable
men-men of brilliancy and
power. This was especially
true of Henry Clay and
Daniel Webster. The for
mer knew he would be the
Wing nominee for the presi-
dency against jackson in
1882. He had tremendous
faith in power-m n ey
power. He knew that Bid
dies bank, through its con-
troll of credit, could exercise
a great influence on bust
ness men who required
credit. He also knew that
it had great power with a
good portion of the press.
He also knew that in a fight
it could, and would, pour
great sums of money-the
depositors' money-into the
substituting Of papers that
could be prostituted, and
into the campaign Golfers of
a party that would fight its
battles.
1t seemed to Clay that if
the quarrel between the bank
and jackson could be forced
before the campaign of
1882 he would have behind
him the power of the bank
and its money bags.

on the tale. 1t has its APP
plication to a campaign one
hundred years later-or may
if Wall Street makes the
blunder that Nicholas Bid
die did.
From the establishment of
the first national bank there
were men in public life hos
tile to it. jefferson opposed 1t
in the cabinet Of Washington
on constitutional grounds.
Later, others thought it dan
gerous because Of the IN
creasing misuse Of its power.
The charter Of the second
bank was to expire during
Jackson's administration
provided he had two terms.
He was against the bank
because of its interference
with politics and m elections.
In his first message, there
fore, he gave the bank fair
warning that a recharter
would be refused at the ex-
piration of the old. This
was done to give the bank
plenty of time to make ar
rangements.

Bitter Battle
At the Polls

Clay was nominated.
Jackson was renominated.
The bank became the is
sue-and the bank now had
to fight for its very exist
ence. 1t would have pre-
ferred to fight under cover,
but the clever Jacksonians
would have none of that.
They instantly numbered
for action and went forth
openly to meet the foe and to
carry the fight to every man
in the corn row, to every
worker on the wharves, to
every artisan in a shop, to
every small merchant in
store.
This made it necessary for
Biddle to pour the banks
money into the campaign
without stint; to buy news
papers or bride them; to re-
sort to the most fragrant
methods of intimidation with
merchants asking credit.
And the Jacksonians saw
to it that every voter from
Philadelphia to the fringe of
the western forest knew just
what the bank was doing
and why.
The contest therefore was
a fierce one-the bank fight
ing for Clay because its
preservation now depended
on his election. Biddle had
been bulldozed across the
Rubicon and there was no
turning back.

was inevitable - jackson
won.
And that wrote the death
warrant of the Second Ma
tional Bank.
The then money power had
staked all on politics and
lost, and it had to pay the
penalty.
The moral is that even in
normal times a clear-cut issue
between the big banking in
terests and the public means
just one thing; in times like
these especially.

Biddle Feared
To Make Enemies

That night the conference
reconvened. Biddle and Ser
geant had not changed their
minds. They still favored a
compromise and no dragging
of the bank through a tumul-
tuous campaign.
Clay assumed the air Of a
man who had been much
wronged. So did Webster.
They had been powerful
champions of the bank in the
Senate, both having at times
been on the payroll as coun-
sci, and they announced that
they could do nothing more
for the institution eff in the
heat of the contest the bank,
abandoning its relia b lie
friends, should strike hands
with its foe. "
This, of course, was the
blackjack method. 1t did
not change Biddle's opinion
of the wisdom of the move,
but he was afraid to ALLEVIATE
these powerful supporters.
And so he surrendered and
became the tool of Clay-he,
his bank and his money-in a
political contest with Jack
son.

Offered BY Jackson

The Secretary of the
Treasury at the time, Louis
McLane, was not unfriendly
to the bank. He could see
it's weaknesses and it's vices
and hoped through some
compromise arrangements to
save the bank through the
elimination of it's bad fea-
lures. He perfected a plan
which he submitted to Jack
son., who had seemed to have
an open mind. He there
upon summoned Biddle to
Washington, and the banker
was ready to accept the
compromise. But, out of
