ROCK ISLAND, ILLINOIS. WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 20. 1871.
Established Oct. 18, 1851
The Liberal Movement ia ZtXii
oari. Th first frails of tbt Missouri Policy,
promulgated by lb St. Louis ItepMican,
bar taken form ia the shape of an address,
and a call fur a Stat cooTentioa by the
liberal Republican! of the Stat of Mis
souri. Aware that our Radical neighbor
has aot suffioieat liberalitj of principle to
lay this dooucnent before the liberal minded
of bis part, we have published it elsewhere.
It is signed by fir Stake oficers, three State
.senators, twenty-one members of the House(
and by other prominent and influential citi
zens; end, ie aulxteaee, transfers the lib
eral movement of 1870, to the national
contest ia 1872. We do sot see how these
liberal Repnb. loans oonld well avoid taking
this important step, if they were honest ia
their professions in 1870 then they labored
to enfranchise citizens now to enfranchise
the Mate, loosen the grasp of despotism
opon the rights of the people aad check the
ooaard marob of centralization. Socoets
crowns J their efforta in 1870, and, there is
every reason to believe that, with aa honor
able ailmno with the Democracy, sucoess
will follow in 1S72. This address, with the
names of iu signers, who by this step have
demonstrated their honesty of parpose, and
are therefore entitled to a hearing before the
bar of puMio opinion, completely refates the
oft repeated assertion of Radical journals,
that the liberal movement iss dead past
resorreotion. Ne deabt ita sseweea ia Ilia
soori, in Tennetee, in Virginia and where
tried ia larger oities makes them wish it
d ad ; all the Federal patronage to
bribe, and all the axeoutive prosoriptioot
aod royal anathemas to frighten and in
timidate have boon unable to kill it; and if
we may credit the signers of this add.ess with
knowing whereof they speak, then the num
ber who endorse their principles is greater
than m ls70. This address is the first
strung oard that has been played for the
Missouri policy, and ruust claim the osreful
consideration of all 1'eaocrats, to whom it
is addressed as tuuoh as to liberal Kepubn
cans, for without the hearty oo-operat'on ol
the Democracy they will be ad powerless to
remedy existing eviis, as is the Democracy
to accomplish the same result without their
ussistaooe. These men are willing to drop
their party pride so far as to attempt the
dsfeat of their party, and, certainly, the
Democracy can do no less than lay aside all
that partisanship which has characterized
it ia the pant and contributed so forcibly to
its defeats, so long as noue of the vital prin
ciples of the party are lost sight of by the
alliance. While we oaonot expect these
Republicans to stultify their past action
by openly enrolling thimselres under the
old lime Demoora'io banner, we shall never
consent to the abject surrender of the De
mocracy. A party that numbers nearly
three million voters oaonot be withdrawn as
this,a Idres calls for , but it can, at this time
in its career of defeat, afford to wait and sue
what this movement means, what strength
it detelopes and what bases of ai.iance it
proposes, before it shall act independently
of men who have shown, to say the least,
an honesty of purpose, to be found ia poli
tics only when the life of the nation is in
dancer. To this end we lay the address
before our readers, In the full light of the
tightened grasp of the Radical party opoa
the reins of government; federal byonete
suppressing reforms, dispersing conventions
and interfering at peaceful elections; a rad
ioal majority in C ingress licensing thievery
and robbery aod prohibittiog all iavestiga
tion In the light of all these and kindred
avile that tend to a oeotralized despotism
with Grant ut the head, let every thinking,
Lonest patriot who loves country better
than party and principles more than spoils
give beed to all that bears opon this great
iiuestion of reform or in any way points to
redress.
