aIn Salt RiYer.e

"Up Salt River" was where all the
defeated candidates used to go. APP
parently nobody navigates that ditfl-
cult and unlucky stream today.
The term going up Salt river" is
very nearly obsolete, yet for upward
of century and up to a few years ago
it was the universal way of describing
political defeat.
The real Salt river is in Kentucky
To get so miles it winds around 16O
miles. Once it was filled with debris
and very difficult for ever a rowboar
to get up stream. A Kentuckian first
coined the political phrase, up Sal,
river"
A Democratic Locofoco campaign
hymn in 1910 directed against Tippe,
canoe Harrison ran thus:
we are marching up Salt river, a
sad and gloomy band"
Voters gave the lie to that song al
the presidential election. when Tippe-
canoe and Tyler. too,' went bounding
into Office.
The next year Congressman Duncan
Of Ohio said on the floor Of the house
"The Federal party has been dead fol
forty years. For forty years it has
been rowing up Salt river
During the war and for several
years afterword there were published
in Philadelphia pamphlets headed
"Salt River Express" salt Rive!
Gazette" and "Salt River News
Pittsburgh Gazette.
