Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Desecration of Our Homes Intelligent and patriotic men have united in their protests. At the polls, the further success of their schemes have been rendered doubtful; and. in utter desperation, they are now prepared to inaugurate new schemes to utterly destroy the influence of home, by removing from those homes means of redress. They now seek to destroy the nice balance of power which alone has secured homes and prosperity to the people; to crush out local authority, which alone has held monopolies in cheek; and to concentrate in the Federal executive ;ind judiciary, and in officers appointed by them, the control of our liberties and fortunes. The Republican party has succeeded in inaugurating a president not elected by the people, but who holds his office by the decision of judicial officers. These judicial officers are not appointed by the people, but hold office for life, and use it against them; and to these officers, irresponsible to the people, the leaders of this party are transfering the powers usurped. The people of the North may well be proud of their public schools, and of their general system of education. But, to a maddened and bewildered people, even learning and intelligence become snares. Know not the intelligent that anger and rage render men blind to reason and deaf to common sense? And these crafty partisans purposely incite these passions to confuse and bewilder the people, so that the- may not realize that it is becoming less and less possible for honest merit and sterling industry to acquire a competence, or a home, or even to hold those rights and privileges already earned by the sweat of the brow. Why will the people shut their eyes, when cunning, craft, fraud and gambling, instead of honest labor and sterling integrity, bring wealth and affluence? Not inflamed with passion, the people would see that constant application to business and honest industry secure no adequate rewards, while greedy favoritism and grasping combinations bring these partisans colossal fortunes. Men enraged by sectional strife and passion totally neglect matters near their homes, which most concern their temporal happiness. As a natural consequence of this neglect, the burdens on honest industry are constantly increasing, and are becoming too heavy to be borne. Already industry is neglected. Many men, who. a few years ago, were hard working and industrious, under the policy of these unscrupulous partizans, have become totally demoralized, and now, neglecting their useful callings, march as tramps up and down the land.
