The language Mr. Johnson attributes 10 Gen.

ANTI-JACKsON MEETING.

Al meeting OF q portion o. the Citizens OF
Lancaster County, held at the Court House
pursuant to public notice on the 9th of Sep
TENDER, 1897, Col John Chocning was, on mo-
ton of Col Ralph Edmonds, called to the
chair, and Benjamin NJ JHalker appointed Sec
rotary. The object of the Meeting having
been stated by Col Edmonds it was detfrmin-
ed that the Chairman should appoint Com
mittee to draft Preamble and Resolutions, ex
pressive of the sentiments of he Meeting
The following gentlemen were accord ngly APP
point d: Rawlcigh w. bowman, Ralph Ed
monls, and Addison Hall The Committee re-
tired for short lime, and on their return pre-
srnted the following Preamble and Resolutions,
which were approved and adopted
Viewing with the deepest sohcitudr the con-
flicting opinions that prevail relative 20 the

and 10 lend our co-operation, in electing the
man whom we believe to be the best qualified
of the two candidates before the Am, rican peo-
pie 10 be placed at the helm of State. We are
greatly astonished al the course OF those OF our
fellow citizens who support the re,en>ions OF
General Jackson to the first Office in their gilt
believing as we do. that he is wanting i
most of the great qualifications necessary for
SUCH an office. We, with them, shall always
graceful rem, mber his military services dur
ing The last war, and especially the brilliant
victory. at New Orleans; and we trust we shall
never be wanting in proper manifestation Of
our gratitude: hut we do protest against con-
ferring on him the highest ciUif office as reward
for military services alone. W. cannot accord
in opinion with those who have compared him
to WASHINGTON. The parallel we cannot dis
Germ. We shall refrain from attempting any
encomum upon his competitor, Earth tn n
10 say, that we view him as an able and cXDe-
rienced statesman, whose claims to 'he office
of President, stand pre- eminently above Gene

Resolved, That we highly approve Of the pro
position to appoint Delegates to met in Con.

as NAV be calculated to promote tie re-elec'
