j. HI. NEGLEY, ESQ:
DEAR SIR:-Seeing in your paper
a request to hear from the old timers
l would just say / am proud that |
voted for General Harrison in 1910,
and that l have been able to take
part in every political campaign since.
always ad vocating the same princi-
Piles and although living in Allegheny
County at the time was at the But
Ter Convention held in Graham's
Meadow that year and have dis
tinct recollection of some things that
were said, one in particular by law
yer, afterwards Judge Williams. In
eulogizing General Harrison on his
manly bearing and his military
achievements he said Harrison was
man of giant proportions and could
WELD sword gracefully and with
power, whilst Van Buren was little
fellow like himself, his sword would
get between his legs and throw him
down. One argument used was that
we as nation had long been ruled
by the free trade principles of the
Southern aristocracy, aided by class
of Office seekers in the North who for
the hope of an Office under their
Southern masters would persist in
persuading the ranks and file of our
voters to vote against their. own in
terests and that of their friends and
neighbors. In those times they were
called Doughfaces and Lick Spittles.
Another argument was that the then
growing North was largely in the
ascendancy in numbers and also in
wealth, paying by far the greatest
part of the expenses of the govern
ment. Hence it was deemed but just
to assert our rights, lift the reins of
Government and rule the nation in
the interest of the majority of the
people and nobly it was done. But
southern ambition for the ruling pow
er was not so easily conquered. They
managed to have two strings to their
bow. They had General Tyler on
the ticket sbr Vice President and at
the death of President Harrison he
became President, and beingxa true
Southerner and true to free trade
principles, hurled us back under the
lash and kept US there for twenty
long years more. And we'll do we
remember the hard times they gave
US by their tariff tinkering. And now
a word to the voters in the present
campaign. To the leaders in the
party opposing protection have
nothing to say because | believe it
would be of no use They have been
led into the position they now occupy
by following the leading strings of
their predecessors. They have spent
their time and their means in the
party and they are expecting Office
there, and it is hard to say just how
far the expectation of the honors and
em moluments of an Office in the State
or even the township may go in blind
ing their eyes to the interest OF the
section of country they live in. But
to those who are not Office seekers
we say you are the men who can
carry this election Then take the
advice of one who has been voting
for fifty years and vote for the prin-
cip!es that will give us home manu-
featuring, home markets, an indepen-
dent nation and prosperous and
happy people. j. B. MAHAN.

near half century-but it impresses

great changes in our county between

In the second place, this Presiden-

mainly from the fact that the anne
