what Democrats say Of TartG ReDeaH
A Voice from the Farmers and La
bOrers Of Pennsylvania
There are candid and honest men in the ranks
of the Opposition in Ohio, who mean to do
what is right, and who, if once convinced that
their self-constituted leaders have left the old
democratic platform, and are seeking 10 tear
down old landmarks TO make way for the false
lights of a "ProgreSSiUe" Democracy, would at
once cast off the shackles of party and cling to
principle, in defiance of the dictaiion Of insolent
demagogues. Ii is to such We now address our.
selves. Ii is to the attention and consideration
of such we commend the resolutions below,
which were adopted at the "Dauphin County De-
mocratic Delegate Convention" held at Harris
burg, Pa, a few days since. We find them in
the democratic Argus" the leading organ Of
the Locofoco party of that State. Ii such men
have been inclined to question our statements as
10 the character and operations Of the "British
Tariff adopted at the late session of Congress,
if they suppose that we have exaggerated and gi-
ven a false color to the expressions ofpubic
feeling in the Old Keystone State and throughout
the whole country, we ask them to hear their
OUn political friends, the men who have for
years been the life and SOUL the rank and file Of
the Democratic party in the Central county of
Pennsylvania-av very heavy producing county,
No attempt will besmaae to gainsay our state
ment as to the origin Of these resolutions and the
character of the men who adopted them, altho'
they will never be allowed to see the light thro'
the Statesman, Press, or any other Locofoco pa
pers, which are industrously laboring to deceive
you.
MARK IT, friend Farmer and LaJOrer, it is
the Democrats Of Pennsylvania-that old Key
stone of the ancient democratic arch-those who
will in two weeks record a verdict in thunder
tones against the administration and abandon
those who have betrayed them, who declare the
well-known fact that Washington, Jefferson,
Madison, Monroe and Jackson, were bold and
steadfast friends ofthe great Protective principle.
They it is who say that the Tariff of l842 con-
ributed to the prosperity the country and gave
good wages to labor! They say that that Ta-
riff paid the National Debt! They say that the
election was carried in 1914 under the banner of
Protection! They say that the new Tariff does
not protect our labor and that it does build up
foreign labor at the expense of home laborl-
They say it does not bring revenue enough to
sustain Government and that it will lead 10 Di-
rect Taxation! They say thatit will bring down
Free Labor to the level of Slave Labor! They
denounce George NJ. Dallas as their betrayer!
They thank John M. Niles, who has been de-
nounced here for refusing to adopt the Progress
| sve Creed and go for Tariff Repeal! Ihey ac-
knowledge with warm and heartfelt gratitude
those who stood by them and American rights
and American Industry! They speak, who have
no interest in dealing falsely with you. HEAR
THEM.
RESOLVED, That Tariff for the protection of
domestic labor has always been favorite prnci-
pie with the Democratic pary-that it was prac-
tlced by Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Mon
roe, Jackson, and Van Buren, and that we as
Democrats will sustain it.
| Resolved, That under the Tariff of '42 the
people of this State were prosperous, and her re.
sources were developed in an extraordinary de-
gree-labor was abundant and wages high, and
no man was idle who wished employmenI few
years more ofits continuance would have placed
our manufactures on q solid basis, and have
made the State prosperous beyond competition.
1t paid the national debt, and filled the Treasury
with funds, while it augmented the prosperity of
every quarter of the Union.
Resolved, That the repeal ofthe Tariff of 1842,
after it had, in the last Presidential election, re-
ceived the sanction of every portion Of the De-
mocracy-after the party had fought and tri-
umphed under its banners-is fraud upon the
party, and meets our decided disapproval.
ReSOlred, That the Tariff of 846 does not
protect our labor; that it does encourage the pau
per labor of Europe; that if continued it will
bring down the price of labor, and will not pro-
duce funds enough to sustain the Government;
that it is an experiment emanating from the null
lifcation of South Carolina, which is calculated
to bring our mechanics and working men to the
level of the Southern slaves, and 10 bring sys-
tenn of direct taxes upon the Government Of the
Union.
ReSOired, That the country cannot return to
its prosperity until the British Tariff of l846 is
repealed.
Resolred, That we approve of the conduct Of
our Senators and Representatives in Congress
who opposed this obnoxious bill. They were
faithful to their trust, and the Democracy will
sustain them.
ReSolucd That Vice President Dallas has for.
feed the confidence of the Democracy of Penn
sylvania by giving his casting vote in favor Of
the Mckay bill. That he continues to insult
his own State by travelling abroad to receive no.
nors from the South in payment of that vote.
Resolved, That the thanks Of the Democracy
Of this State are due to the Hon. John M. Niles
for his able defence of the domestce labor of the
country.
, RESOLVED, That we have looked with pleasure
at the Senatorial conduct of our friend and neigh
| Dor, Senator Cameron, true son of Pensylva-
t MIA, a Democrat in principle and practice, he
, knows what is right, and has the courage to do
r it. We are proud of his talents and will CRATE
fully remember his services.
