great and powerful body-possessing recu-


psraiive energy that, if we remain united, NAV

strength. The operation of Wing principles has


been merely postponed--not defeated. Ali the


pohuclans IN the word cannot prevent the great


West from embracing Protection in a few years.


They must and loitl nave a home market. They


cannot exist without it.


From variety of causes which cannot be
expected TO cooperate again, our opponents have


gained present ascendency. But is their vic.


tory equal to ours in 1910? Yet, low as they


were then depressed, they recovered. So shall

fact of their present apparent superiority constl.

up Of the most heterogeneous principles and dis
cordant interests, they cannct hold together

act like keystone for them, and keep them united
in spite of themselves. With their ultra Free

can they act In harmony? Impossible Again:

from being the leader of the party, he will not

South have taken the distinctive ground of
Southern interests and Southern principles versus


the North. Cen Mr.. Calhoun, the perfect en-
bodlment of Southern distractions and Southern

that tura It which way he will, and do what ne

What then should be the true position OF the

Stick to Wing principles. You will then form a


vast body Of reserve; and when the East and the
