we have not learned of Wb'le the
matter IN one sense was of but little
general importance, y«t the result is
■Qggeetive of several thoughts.
In tbe firet place, tbere were, A*
we started, 2.100 even vot«»« cast in
tke county in 1840 for tbe first Bar
rison. Bat about 200 of them re
main. This tells as that near 1,900
ara dead and gone. This is a large
par cent of tbe 2100 that have passed
FTWNY. True this was 48 years ago —
Mar half a century— but it impresses
all wUh tbe fliicht of time and tbe
great changes in our county between
BOW and then.
In the second place, this Presiden
Hal campaign has recalled and reviy
ed all tbe memories and incidents of
TKAFT of 48 years ago. This arises
mainly from the fact that the n ame
of tbe Republican caudi<L*te now is
tbe same as that of the candidate in

Something About the West.
DENVER, AUG. 16, 'BB.
Ens. CITIZEN; —It is an interesting
ride and one full of many pleasant
comparisons and surprises—the ride
.'rom Penna. west to the Rockey
mountains It makes an American
rfjoice exceedingly for it shows him
«om<Hhin<r of the greatnessand wonder
of Li- coui.trv. And it pleases a cit
izen of Butler county for it ena'nles
mm to tiee that the much praised and
most highly cultivated sections of Il
linois and lowa produce crops which
he may see equalled at home. And
it is a very good thing if he who
makes this trip is well acquainted
with the products of his own county,
that be may compare them intelligent
ly with what he sees along the line
of travel.
X left Butler county in harvest for
the west All the cultivated country
along the way was
iu harvest, and I arriv
ed in Colorado on the midst of har
vest. This gave me an excellent op
portnnity for comparison. Knowing
much about the harvest at home, I
I could see just how our grass and
grain compared with the grass that'
was being cut, and the grain that
was ripening, in different parts of the
West. I looked most closely at wheat
I saw in the wonderful Mississippi j
valley, for you know it is thought
that is the great garden of the coun*«
try. many there who know
something of Weßtern Penna., think
that Butler county is one of the most
sterile regions in the whole conntry.
But when I had looked at fields of
timothy and clover and oats, and re
membered that I had seen just as
good at home, I rejoiced over the fact
that I was born in Butler county,
and felt proud of what the farmers
there can do.
I can truly say that I saw no bet
ter timothy or clover in Illinois, and
lowa, than I saw at home. I believe
I have heard about heads of wastern
timothy being: half as long as a man's
arm, or something else like that; but
people tell wonderful things about
the West, and you
would have to hunt a long time to
find timo'hy better any way than
some Butler county farmers
cut this year. And when one comes
from the east, and meets a farmer in
Illinois or lowa, who, boasting of his
beantiful timothy, and turning to you
with a little laagh that isn't pretty
at all, asks "did you ever see anything
like that I have in Pennsylvania?"
and you reply, "yes sir, they are cut
ting just as good timothy as that in
Butler County," he looks at
yon in astonishment and as much as
says,"l don't believe it."
I had great difficulty in convincing
western farmers that we in Penn'a.
did cut good clover and good timothy.
And when I spoke to then of 40 and
50 buphels of oats to the acre,. are
said that 100 bushels of corn per acre
were no extraordinary crop, they
said, "if we didn't know who you are
we wouldn't believe you. "YVe nev
er imagined that such crops could be
raised in that poor old country
"Why, (and with a laugh) is'nt it
said that formerly crows had to carry
their dinners when flew across that
country?" "Maybe, I wasn't there
then, but now they stop to feast," I
replied You see, I knew that a far
mer in Butler county had taken 160
bushels of corn off an acre, and that
other farmers often had more than
100 bushels per acre; and knowing
that, I was able to speak right out for
our glorious old county, aud to make
my auditors think that maybe, alter
all, farmers could get along about as
easily there as in the West. So it
seemed then, so it seems now. I
think a farmer makes a mistake who
sells a good farm in Butler county
and comes West to better his lot.
Ten acres of good corn there is worth
more than twenty acres of good corn
in lowa, and so with oats, and hay.
Think of selling a double bushel of
corn for twenty cents, or a bushel of
oats for fifteen cents, or a ton of hay
delivered, baled, at the depot, for four
dollars or four and a half. And yet
that's just what farmers in lowa were
eager to do last year. Yerily Butler
couuty farmers need not be ashamed
of anything when they travel through
the West; better stock than is seen
there is not seen in the West. I am
glad I am from Butler county, and I
hope I may live long to glory in
what the grand old county has done
and can do.
But it is a good thing for the peo
of the East to travel West. It gives
them a better idea than anything else
can, of the greatness and grandeur of
their country. America is full of sur
prises to the eastern people, especial
ly to those who think that the great
ness of the country is in the East.
How such are astonished at the im
mense distances they must travel to
see even half of their country. llow
they are surprised at the vast stretch
ea of richest prairie, the wonderful
expanse of plain, aud mighty stupen
dous mouutainr whoso tops are miles
in the sky above the hills of the Kast.
Yes, it is a good thing for eastern
people to become acquainted with
this country by traveling over it
When tbev do so, they are very apt
to lose atl their desire to be "Euglish,
you know," or to insist that the Ger
mans' fatherland is comparable to
A merica
As we travel on, n.nd on, and on,
through weary nights and interesting
days, we begin to realize,that there is
truth in the saying that there is more
of the country west than east of the
Mississippi; but we know that there
are two aud half times as much west
when onr journey has taken weeks
aud we have gone to the farthest
point west and from the north to the
south. Intelligent eastern people are
slow to acknowledge that the
country must eventually be greatest
in the west. Why, it is possible to
put and suntaiu the population of the
whole country in one single western
state. Another western state, and
its adjoiuiug territory, are louger than
all the New England and middlo
states, with Ohio and Indiana, and
ean support more people The west
is full of surprises to travelers from
the east. •
The sod house is a surprise; the he
roism of the frontier people is a sur
prise, the fertility of what our fathers
knew as the 'Great Amerian Desert'
is a surprise, and the surprises con
tinue till one is lost in wondering ad
miration at the tfreat, grand possibil
ities of his country, or overwhelmed,
awed into silence,if not devotion,as he
stands in the presence of some stu
pendous peak, whose hoary summit
| pierces the sky, and points to flim in
I whos infinite wisdom is goodness and
power; it has all been formed for the
welfare of his children and his own
honor and glory. W. P. S
Rejoice With Me.
Eos CITIZEN: A time of the re
joicing at Six Points. Some years
ago a man lost a sheep from his flock;
he went into the wilderneHS, and
sought diligently till he found it; and
when he uad found it he comeib home;
and calleth together his friends and
neighbors, saying unto them "rejoice
with me." Also a woman had some
money, and she lost it; the first thing
she thought of was to sweep the
house, and she found her money; and
calleth together her friends and neigh
bors;and said unto them "rejoice with
me." We believe her friends aid re
joice with her. The greatest mani
festation of rejoicing that we have
wituenscd in th's vicinity was at Six
Points, at the hotel of Mr. and Mrs.
E. C. Parks, on the loth day of
August, 1888, when about one hun
dred and seventy friends and neigh
bors assembled to rejoice with; and in
honor of Mr. Robert Crawford and
Mrs. E. J, Scott who came from Kan
sas to vinit their friends in this neigh
borhood. Mr. Robert Crawford is a
son of James Crawford, who is the
oldest citizen of Allegheny township.
Mr*. E J. Scott is a daughter of Mr. ]
Jipeph Sloan, aa aged citizen of Ve
nanjjo Twp These aged fathers i f
the Kansas visitors are worthy nun.
They have ahvay been willing to re
joice with those who do rejoice; and
weep with those who weep; and help
those who need help. A sumptuous
feast was given on this occasion; as
the people approached the table, they
were rejoiced to see the copious sup
plies ot delicious cake and abundance
of eatables of every kind. After din
ner the meeting was called to order,
'and Mr. Henry Kohlmeyer was chosen
president and John Thomas, secre
tary. The president stated the ob
ject of meeting; and called on Rev. J.
It Coulter who opened the meeting
with prayer. Rev. W. H. Hover was
called on who made an able address,
followed by Rev. J. R. Coulter.
The president made the closing re
marks which were very appropriate
Quite a number of presents were pre
sented to the Kansas visitors. The
meeting was closed by Binging
"Praise God from Whom a]l Bless
ings Flow," and benediction by Rev.
Hover. Mrs. E. C. Parks, the land
lady of the Six Points hotel, is wor
thy of great praise for getting up this
grand party. The Kansas visitors
returns their sincere thanks to the
friends and neighbors for the kind
manner in which they met them on
this occasion Yours very truly,
SEC'Y.

J. H. NEGLEY, ESQ:
DEAR SIR-—Seeing in yonr paper
a request to hear from the old timers
I would just say lam proud that I
yoted for General Harrison in 1840,
and that I have been able to take
part in every political campaign since,
always ad vocating the Bame princi
ples,and although living in Allegheny
County at the time I was at the But
ler Convention held in Graham's
Meadow that year and have a dis
tinct recollection of some things that
were said, one in particular by law
yer, afterwards Judge Williams, la
eulogizing General Harrison on his
manly bearing and bis military
achievements he said Harrison was a
man of giant proportions and could
wield a sword trracefully and with
power, whilst Tail Buren was a little
fellow like himself, his sword would
get between his legs and throw him
down. One argument used was that
we as a nation bad long been ruled
by the free trade principles of the
Southern aristocracy, aided bv a class
of office seekers in the North who for
the hope of an office under their
Southern masters would persist in
persuading the r»uks and tile of our
voters to vote aeainst their own in
terests and that of their friends and
neighbors. In those times they were
called Doughfaces and Lick Spittles.
Auother argument was that the then
growing North was largely in the
ascendancy in numbers and also in
wealth, paving 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 fcr Vice President and at
the death of President Harrison ho
became President, and true
Southerner and true to free trade
principles, hurled us back under the
lash and kept us there for twenty
long years more. And well 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 I have
nothing to say because I believe it
would be of no use. They have been
led into tho position they uow occupy
bj following the leading strings of
their predecessors. They have spent
their timo 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
emoluments of an office in the State
or even the township may iro 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 meu who can
carry this election Then take the
advice of one who has been voting
for fifty years and vote for the prin
ciples that will give us home manu
facturing, home markets, an indepen
dent nation and a prosperous and
happy people. J. B. MAIIAN.
