Speech of T Ewing at Cimlicothe Ohio June 1837
Edited printed and published by A M Gest Ewing reflects on the past eight years of the Jackson era urging that unity of power centers in the hands of one man. He argues patronage, appointments and removals, have expanded executive influence, undermining Senate independence and elections. He cites Blue Book warnings, post office abuses, and diplomatic overreach as evidence of a growing centralized power.
