ton Of the leaders of that party, the time OF
reasoning had passed" and the singing OF
songs, drinking hard cider, eating corn dogers-
the exhibition of .coons, and their many fine
promises, especially their promise ct taeo dot-
hrs day and roast beet, had peculiar charms
for me. But ali, delatded man. when look a.
round, and ask myself the question: Are any
of those promises fulfilled-and do as a Ia
boring man get the promised two dollars day
and roast beef?o sad experience answers, No!
But when take a retrospective, view Of the
past, | find that under every democratic ad
ministration, under which | have lived, the
country has fourished Farmers have got
reasonable prices for their produce-the labor
Ell has received fair price for his labor, and
that two-thirds of the wealth of this country
was accumulated under the administrations Of
Jackson and Van Buren,, and that since the
ushering in of this glorious whig administra-
ton, produce has been fal1ing-wages are GO
ing down-public expenses increasing--tax
rising, and the consumer is paying the duty on
ali the necessaries of life, to support and pro-
go for Polk and Dallas therefore,
And have told you why and wherefore.
JOHN HELMS.
Wilmington, Ohio, July 10 1914.
The Cleaveland Plain Dealer runs over
whole list that will not support Clay in 1914
that supported Harrison in 1910. After allu-
ding to number out of the State, it breaks
forth thus:
GEN. WIN. S. MURPHEY,
the great stump orator of Ohio for Harrison
and Tyler in 1910, is now doing battle against
Clay and the Bank.
But to come home, on to the Connecticut
Western Reserve. Where are the whig lea
ders of 1910?
LEWIS L. RICE,
a powerful writer, and editor of wing paper,
in 40, is now publishing liberty paper, and
tearing down Clayism throughout the south
ern counties of the Reserve.
J. w. TAFT,
editor and publisher Of the Coneaut Gazette,
and a strong Harrison and Tyler man in '40,
now openly opposes Clay, and is about issuing
a liberty paper at gainesville. He says hun
dreds of his old Harrison subscribers have re-
quested him to- do so, and they pledge them
selves to sustain him!
EDWARD WADE, ESQ,
of this city, a powerful DICTATOR, and an elo-
quent public speaker, and who, in 40, dealt
disInay into the republican ranks wherever he
went, now is the worst customerer Clay men
can meet in this quarter. He is most at home
when treading on Gidding's toes, tearing his
abolition overcoat off from his whig jacket. and
exposing his duplicity, which he often does,
with eacrMiating effect
Thomas Richmond, I. C. Severance,
R. II. Blackmer, I'll. P. Hopkins,
]. f. fainter, NJ III. Hickox,
are citizens of our acquaintance, and were very
active in 1910 to secure the election Of Gen.
Harrison; but who are now equally active a.
gainst Henry Clay.
CAPT. VIM r. RICHARDSON,
of this city, thorough-going and influential
Tppecanoe man in 1910, now goes for Polk
and Dallas. He says he has seen quite enough
Of the corruption and meanness of federal
whiggery, and that he shall hereafter exert
himself in the cause of democracy and equal
rights.
