To the Editor Of The Frederick Herald:
As the friends of Mr.. Van Buren, in this election
district have placed my upon their Commit
tee to attend the Van Buren, Convention, which is
to assemble in Frederick, on Monday. the i Of
June next | feel it incumbent upon nee 20 adopt
this mode OF publicly announcing that am NJ long

ton. II ia true that | amongst the mlginal
friends of Gen. Jackson, and sustained his AdHlai-
stration throughout his two successive terms; that,
confding in the fair promises Of the present incnm-
bent, gave him my Jealous support al the election
of 1896 and have since, until recent period, act
ed in concert with his political friends in reference
to both State and General Government, but | can
act with them no longer.
The measures and pulley of Mr.. Van Buren have
been disastrous to the general prosperity OF the
country that with all preferences of early assoca'
lions and party attachmenta bearing upon ne,
cannot longer render 10 him my support believe
that the Interests of The People of the United States
require change Of Rulers, and, one OF the Peo-
ple shall xert myself so far my humble abiii-
ties win avail to effect that change And, in turn
ing from the support of MIR. Van Buren, to that OF
Gen. VIM. Henry Harrison. OF Ohio do it with
no reluctant spirit. With the distinguished claims
of Harrison have long been familiar. Whe,hN
We look upGn his services IN the battle field or IN
the councils OF the nation, or minister TO for

United States who merits so large a share Of public
appreciation. Tie impartial pages Of history have
long since recorded his tfiumphs and his great pub
Tic services and it would be useless for me here to
enumeratc and applaud them, as it is degrading %

Harrison majority

Fros,burg has done nobly She has redeemed
the pledges given at her enthusiastic meetings. and
seems bent giving the largest Harrison majority
in the county. Let il not be said that this election
is no, party test. 1t was regarded by both par
ties and it is well known here. that several ipfu
entail (LiAerlo influential y Van Buren, leaders
from this district went TO Froslburg and strained
every nerve 10 secure the election of their candid
ate. Mir Preston the Van Buron candidate, has
been very STRONG man, and indeed never was bea-
ten before. But like every body else, he has to
yield TO the strength Of Old Iip2ecanoe. This is
the first time, ought to state, that opposition
commissioner elected from this district.
We cannot commend too highly the magnan-
nous course of Mr.. Conrad, the other Harrison
candidate, who nobly declined poll. in order that
our friends might present undivided front. He
has the thanks of every true Harrison man in the
county for his correct and manly course. II was
in this division Of friends that the oilice-holders
laid their greatest hopes.
This result is as gratifying as it has been unex
pectcd. II shows with unerrng certainty what
may be expected from Allegheny when the last
