Daily American Organ and Weekly American OrganTheDaily American Organwas published in Washington, D.C., by An Association for Native Americans and ran from November 13, 1854 to November 14, 1856. As a platform for the American Party, also referred to as the Know-Nothings, the paper was printed every afternoon Monday through Saturday, and a weekly edition, theWeekly American Organ, was printed every Monday morning. The paper\'s slogan, \"The perpetuation of American freedom is our object; American rights our motto; and the American Party our cognomen,\" appeared underneath the masthead. A prospectus printed in the first issue predicted a new era of patriotism in the United States, one in which the American Party would take on the \"manifold evils that have come upon us,\" which were due to the \"disastrous operation of our laws of naturalization.\" TheDaily American Organas a forum for political discussion was important to the formalization of the American Party\'s stances during election cycles. Restricting immigration was of primary importance; the party was against allowing immigrants the right to vote or hold public office, and was for instituting a 21-year naturalization period. The American Party reached the height of its popularity in the 1850s.
