The Federal party arc making desperate effort to get up an enthusiasm in favor of Henry Clay, but it is no go. He has cut ash poles, sprinkIed himself with cologne water, decked himself iii ruffled shirts and French boots, and sworn in the most exquisite style, s.that The people mere dem fine SCI of crea- tures,' but all to no effect. He has written hundreds of contradictory letters, which have proved to him to be much more capable of making good Kings fool, than good pres- ident.

 We say that he never was and never can be the choice of the American people. And to prove it we will hastily review his politi- cal history for the last twenty years.

 1. Because in 1924, when Jackson, Adams and Clay were candidates for the Presidency, Clay received but 37 out of 261 electoral votes.

 ?. Because in 1928, the rotten league be- tween John Quincy Adams and Henry Clay, was beaten by Andrew Jackson 100000.

 3. Because in 1882, when Clay was the regular nominee of the Federal National Con vention, in the Electorial College, he receiv- ed only 49 out of 2S6 electorial votes.

 4. Because in 1886, he again made des- parate effort to be taken up, but his friends were afraid to try him,

 5. Because in 1899, he AGAIN TRIED to force himself upon the Baltimore Convention, and was cast aside in disgust

 6. Because, since the federal party have an- nounced their determination to make Clay their candidate in 1914, THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS or GOOD MEN and true. have left the federal party and rallied round the glorious flag of Democracy
