Henry Clay the Laboring Millions and the Laboring Nations
A partisan polemic recounts Henry Clay as opposing foreign workers’ preemption rights while favoring banks and elites. It argues his stance devalues labor, praises Andrew Jackson for aiding working foreigners, and portrays his policies as converting laborers into “white slaves” under elite control, urging workingmen to reject him. The piece cites prior votes and speeches on preemption, alien stockholders, and Missouri, framing Clay as anti labor while contrasting Jackson’s pro worker stance.
