JACKSON'S BLISTERING REFUSAL TO RECHARTER THE BANK OF THE UNITED STATES. "The rich and powerful too often bend the acts of government to their selfish purposes," Jackson says, denouncing the bank as an elitist monopoly serving only the interests of wealthy (primarily British) investors. "When the laws undertake to...make the rich richer and the potent more powerful, the humble members of society--the farmers, mechanics, and laborers--who have neither the time nor the means of securing like favors to themselves, have a right to complain of the injustice..." A Harrisburg, Pennsylvania political club, The Democratic Friends of Jackson and Wolf, commissioned this pamphlet "to aid in the circulation of the said message throughout the State, in the name of the Committee." Not in Checklist of American Imprints. Only two recorded copies: at the American Antiquarian Society and the Library Company of Philadelphia. The Library Company's copy is disbound.
