i If Frank Daggett has rio more regard for truth than what he has displayed in tbe above item he had better cease writing moral essays for public consumption i We emphatically assert that the Pioneer wasj one of the leading papers in Mi and that it has come out openly ic favor of Johnson and the Philadelphia convention and if Frank Daggett lias got so much brass and copper in his face as to say that this is we may safely register him as the next chief clerk of his court The Only Source of Safety pleasure in copying following language which in The Now Yoik Evening Post The strictest observance of constitu tional forms is our only safety There is which the people of all par ties should so pertinaciously insist on nothing which of liberty so jealously demand If those of one side tolerate for their own pur the constitution and tho laws they will have to see them violated rn the interests of their oppo nents We presently come to the sad pass where as in Mexico the party in will claim the right to do it pleases regardless of constitu tion and laws and our liberties will fall a prize to the ambitions lealer who chooses to Anatoli them and to offer a wearied peace and order in exchange for freedom It would be well compare these convictions of a leading press the teaching of one of our United States asking for a contri bution of funds in honor of Garrison SENATOR AT A
