eats concerning whith you..deei rc to know = my
sebtimenta (inastnuhli ['as I aro a candidate,
nominated by the Detnoeracy lt,f Schuylkill coun
ty, to represent .;he connnes eat SchuPkill, Carbon,
Monroe. end Pike, in IheState Senate,) I will en-
(leaver to answer, with as .much brevity and pre-
•
eision, as possible--
I have always been the friend and advocate of
a Tariff, both for revenue and proteetion-1 he
present Tariff-act, alihough perhaps not . perfect
in its 'details, is upon :the whole caleulated to
afford protection, and will probably answer the
purpose for, revenue. ; This will be\tscertained by
the next report of the Secretary of Treasury.
Tlie votes of Senators ',Buchanan' and Sturgeon'
and of our immediate:reinesentatises in Congress
bob Whigs and Dernoerats, in favor of the pre
,
sent Tarif f act, met My decided' approbation.—
The principle Of proteltion has always received
the support of botlt , political parties in Penney!.
crania, and I know of no reason why it should be
'abandoned or compromised, believiog it, to be vi
tally important to the interests of Pennsylvania,
and in fact to the whole Union, I, shall advocate
it in whatever posiiiery public or private, I may
be placed. ,
Your second question involves considerations
of much importance! The'propoittion to distrib.
utc the proceeds of the Sales dike Public Lands
among the States suggests several inquiries--How
far doe. such a measure tend' to interfere with'
the independent relatiiin 'of the States, tcithe Fed
eral Government I Will relief from present em
barrasment thus afforded to the States, be lasting, ,
and free from any tendency to induce the States
to incur new debts,i without properly. Weighing:
the means for the prompt redamPtion of this
tell faith .To ivltoin,do these procceds,rightfully
belong, according to !the different deeds of cession,'
treaties and purchaSes, under, which the public .
domain es been acqiiired Th'ese questiona a.
rice when considering,' the subject of distribution,
as a dietiiact and iCdepeirdent measure. But I
presume that the 'otijei4 ofziyourlquestion on this
subject is to know ipj*nttments when, the sub
ject is regarded as having a relation to and bear
mg upon the immanency of the present Tiiriff, as
it is believed by many, that should the duties ari
sing tinder the present Tariff Act he'so great that
connection aith the Proceeds of the-public, Land
Sales, there would bola large surpins in the Pn.
liesTressery, the pemenenci Of the present . Tar
iff will be endangered. What Will be the amount
of,duties srisirg under the present Tariff act, add
how far it will be adeipiate fur purposes of. reve
nue, is as yet uncertain—=The report of the Sec 7
rehry.of the Treasury , to be made to the' ne=t
corigiesa will soon:eelighten, us on this ;subject.
Should the proceeds of.the public Latta Saler
and the duties on importstivas create a large sue-

that some modification of the present. Tariff may
bo attempted, or some new regulation established!

-4cc., for thi information of the people of our own
county, and of the District -generally-.
HLIIIIISBORG, :Sept. 17, 1893.
Gentiemen:,—Youre of the lath Inst., is before
me, and I cheerfully proceed to reply to it, thOugh
amidst numerous engagementa, which must be al
lowed to excuse whatever marks of haste it may
exhibit.
You iriquins--Fiitt—whether I am in !aver
of a Protective Tariff! ..
- I distinctly, unequivocally end unreservedly dO
clardi that I am : pledging myself that
v ii. elected
to the seat in Congress for which I have been
nominated by the partiality of the Democratic
Harrison party of the 14thDisttict of Pennsylva
nia, it will tie my most earnest, unceasing" and
persevering nndeavOr to secure the full recogni
tion of the Principle of Protectitm to the products
of our own 'soil and labor, as an integral part of
the Permanent Policy of the National Government.
I should pursue this course, as well because I be
lieve it just, and right—the policy by which alone
we can become really independent of foreign na
tions—powerful in war, and prosperous aid.hap
py in peaco—as because it undoubtedly the
great principle which the inhabitants of Penpsyl
vania,;.and especially of those that would form My
immediate Constimency, the people of Schuylkill,
Lebanon and Dauphin counties, entertain most
warmly and almost unanimously, as the ;is of
their industry, .and the touchstone which regu
lates and decides the value of their labor, their
mines, their mill seatsand their-farms.'
No Congressional district in Pennsylvania, and
perhaps not one in the Union, can 'compare with
ours in point of mineral resources. In the conn
ty Of Schuylkill, Ike almost entirely the great -
Anihracite Coal field which bears that namr; and
in Lykens Valley •of Dauphin gourdy, is fond!
duithei 'great coal field, hardly second to ilia first,
though Ices developediwhile Dauphin and &lin) , 1 1 .
kill, mt.'s Lebanon, have every where throughout
their borders, rich depoSitee of Iron Ore, 'which i
like their Coal, require to be but adequately":tde
veloped b, T Labor and Capital, to prove maga
zines of inestimable wealth 'to the whole country
around them. 'P I O a limited extent this develop.
meat has alresulyetakeu place. But, gentlemen,
I think st, not too much to assert that, if 'proper
pro!cctidri by the ilistering hand of Government
is eitended to both'- Coal and Iron, scarcely any
bounds can be set to the onward starch of this
district in; presperity and wealth.
As it is, however, let us glanco at the rcults
• •
of'nearly unassisted individual labor ; and eeter 7
prise alone. • Some twenty years ago, -and' the
Coal Region was nothing but a mass of dOun
tains, wild and uncultivated. Now, it codeine
some one, hundred and fifty miles of Radreads,
and thowiands of Railroad and deal. cars—between
one and two tundred mines are in operation yvith
all their dostly,apparatus of steam enginei, pumps,
ect.—witli numerous towns and villaget and eigh-
teen or twenty thousand pepple,,second to none'
in this Union for, enterprise and intelligence;. en
gaged incoming a livelihood by the coal bulimia
of the district—tol say nothing of the between three
and four thousaild; vessels which cleir annually
.

This exhibits on a small scale, in our, own diO
triet, what the statistics of the whole State show,
the importance to the Farmers and the Median
ici? of the Iron Business, as affording a 'Homo
Market for their produce and artizanship. :In' thn
State, it is ascertained that at least 120,0,00
per
sons are supported by the manufacture of Iron,
and that a market for agricultural produce 'and
Merchandize is thereby created, equal to tweitie
:Willow of dollars. It will be thus seen, that all
classes of people, engaged in almost every 'species
of occupation, are interested most deeply 'in . 'the
prosperity of the Iron trade of, Pennsylvania:
regret to know it to.be the fad, at present ' this
trade is_ b greatly depressed and that thousands •of
laborers are thrown out employment in con
sequence. This-condition of things, I, confidekt

lie house of Charles Christ, in East Schuylkill
Haven, on the 16th ins 4 ; to address you on the
subject Of the approaching fall election, we beg
leave to present for !your consideration theiollow

will, we pritiume, be admitted by all that the sub

petuation cif o. this right depend' and must ever do

and it is the duty of every citizen voter not only
to discharge a good conscience in. the exercise of
it, but to be vigilant in guarding it against every
l 'onernachoirint from whatever source it n.ay pro
' ceed. Tbel most certain way of preserving this
right is by 'electing none but honest, capable, and
efficient Tin to fill the'.clifferent offices. If they
are 61Icil with_tiaan either of imbecile judgments or
dishonest. views, wo may soon be despoiled of our
liberties.' ' l Thera Will he 'two Democratic flekets

Were respectively made. Awl her! we foresee the ,
assaults of demaggues, -end antici pate , the 'AM , I
lance and malevolent abuse of those who flourish
so long as family eustcmts are kept up, abut sink
into insig nificance when they ceaSe. The ticket
formed at Schuylkill Haven, on thF 21st ult., was
made under the Delegate system. That this 'sys
teen—as it hes been conducted in Schuylkiltcoun
ty of late years, is corrupt, can and will be denied
only by those who were instrumental in bringing
it into disrepute. That it-has teen of late years
under the control of i, f me. hokler4, office seekers,
and official hirelings, and been wiekas a ladder
for the advancement
. of the interest rf a few, and
a mask under which many unfit and unworthy
men have crept intab, trice, we beljeve are facts ,e,
yond conjecture, a 6b within the knowledge of all:
The selfish desig of the artful acid the dishonest
intrigues of political knaves, have'principally con
tributed to bring this once useful and highly fa- )
'voted system to its present degredation. Under
all the evils then, which the Delegate system hes
generated, and they are not few -4 1 1 q a hot pretext
or what purpose,. shall aebe c Wed upon to
kcountenanco .the continuation of e system so en
tirely destitute of any good! That- l it was origi
nally intended to counteract the &signs of the sel
fish and - ambitious, is a feitt—drat it was for a
time effectust in that design, is also true--and
that forrnerly . it was-conducted in purity and hon
esty, regarding the claims"of men, of worth, hones,
ly. and taknts in its selections,iti not denied. But
with a view of its ,past prostitution to the vile
purposes of official hirelings—its` subserviency to
the will of n few inditiduals•—its devotion to the
interests qf particular and favoUrite families,--
and its still - increasing corrupticM, stariflg us in
will lost

.tICO flow

itraperative that wo should no locigei,eubinit tame=
ly,4othol artifices flir which . tiur rights and liberties
are endangered, brit that liencefqth we will resist'
tho.r , ,Delegate system," end go lit favor of Tickets
formed by the people at their COunty Mass Meet
ings. if the people wish to preserve their tights
and liberties, they must preserve the right of se
lecting as well as electing theii
,officers and I tiv
makers. There is one argument, if it ho not a
perversion of terms to call it stich, used by the
frieridS of the Delegate system:: It is this--that
be only is the candidate oi s the Democratic party,
who is 'put in nomination . under- this system—
and on that ground they conclude he is entitled to
the support of everyman calling himself a dems
crat. • .
fellow.citizens, appeari to ba the ground
relied upon f tr. the success of the ticket formed at
Schuylkill Haven, OR ate 21st !ultimo. It holds
a conspicuous pladelo allthe Punlic.tions of that
ticket. But, it does sprit' to ill )1 most 1.10fOrtO•
nate argument, for any men or club of nien call
ing themselves Democrets, cud pretending to
governed by flepulibean princqd. s Such
trines we conceive to he anything but republican.
it is in our opinion the ver r essence of Arisfocia
cy. Democracy or Republicanism is,predicated
en an equality of rights, and the right of every.
man to judge and d.termine for himself in cast
ing his vote.. But the doctrine, that as soon as a
few individuals arrogate to themselvis the name
of /cadres of a party,. name a candidate for'offiee,
all inquiry must cease uprin painof biling-tfenoun
eed as arrapostate, traitor, &e.,&•••., is menstroti.!
'Phi; is a favourite doctrine in some parts of the
world. It is the very principle advocated by the
Socercips of Europe, composing the Holy Al
liance." We do hope: and trust, however, that
the citizens of Schuylkil 'county have too much
Republican virtue and manly fortitude to submit
to such-a despotic and arbitrary doctrine. It is
under this view of their patt, Ala that the
pendent Dentefratic voters of Schuylkill county,"
opposed to , the Delegate system, called the meet
ing which put in ,
nominationthe ticket we now
recommend to thr4 Support of 'all Democrats, wh,o
area friendly to .a reform. A ticket 'composed !of
the honest,., capable and inieUigent dais of our
Fellow Citizens, sterling derilricrats, who are fresh
from the peOple, and too intlependen't to. be the.
slaves of any junto' or feels army men—who will
not barter the honor and digOity of office for the.
fa . voura of a corrupt Executive, or the smiles of
.an individual. 'Yes, fellow citizens., the ticket
which we recommend to yotn regard and support;
is emphatically selected by theincopic, it is their
own spontaneous act. By supporting this ticket,
you will elect men to the State Legislature, who
are the open and avowed advecates of a rrnorrn
PROACTIVF. TARIFF. Besides titi4, you will
correctr the faults,we have so, lung erprecat:d and
endured, ( until it has beconae too intol,ratt:o to
be borne, ) that heietofore, in the exercise ,of the
right of suffrage, the people have had no choice—
will be dons away with, and ;in place of the muck.
- try of imposed upon the voters by the
guilded authority of a set Zs! packed delegates, we
shall hereafter have' a ticketlfornied by the sport;

Meetings. •
Having, now giv i cri s ss full a detail of our object
and views as the hmits of a communication of this
kind will afford„7 call upon on who are
Bed to aid the cause of refurrn,-to'be vigilant and'
industrious in the support e r the ticket formed by
the people of Schuylkill county, on the 16th inst.
