the decision and vigor for which he was
noted. and which action secured hi* re
election. though he wan on the wrong side
of the tariff quention. and with Van Buren
maintained a policy which brought the Xa
tion to a financial crisis of extreme severity,
la 1832 he voted for Clay, then the great
exponent of the principle* of protection; in
1836 for W. H. Harrison, and in 1840 for
Harriaon again, with whose election the
Whig* and their financial policy finally
triumphed Harrison died one month after
hi* inauguration, thongh his election re
sulted in the tariff of 1842. In the follow
ing Presidential election, that of 1844. the
■laver) q uestioti first entered as a leading
point, and Mr. Fowler that year voted for ,
Clay. In 1844 he voted for Gen. Taylor,
the Whig candidate, who was elected; in
*52 for Scott, who wan defeated, and which
election waa the last in which the "Whig
party nominated a candidate. After that'
the content in regard to slave and free
territory became of absorbing interest to
the Nation.and the parties were rearranged.
Thane who were in favor of slavery or who
—irrhTii to leave the institution undisturbed
gathered to the Democratic party, while
those wishing to actively oppose the ex
tension of slavery to territory not yet oc
cupied by it united under the name of the
the Republican party, the Whig party be
coming extinct In 1856 Mr. Fowler voted
for Fremftnt. the Republican caudidate,
who was defeated, and in 1860 for Abra
ham Lincoln, who was ele< ted, and whose
election wax followed by the secession of
the Southern States and the great civil
war, waged by the South for slavery and
hf the N'orth for the preservation of the
Union. Since that time Mr. Fowler's votes
have been for the Republican tickets,
which, with the exception of Mr. Blaine,
whoso career promise it to parallel that of
Mr. Clay, has always been successful. His

a century. wilL strange to say. be to main

was to obtain. Son them jealousy of
Northern progress aud prosperity has again
prompted a step in a "Rule or Ruin'' poli
cy. which, we hope, will be promptly de
feated. Slavery and free trade weut hand
in hand in this country, till slavery died in
1865. and free trade—or its coQsin. the
Mills bill—should receive its quietus in
1888. At present we see no good reason

L
General Harrison's Letter.
Gen. Harrison's letter, accepting the
Republican Presidential nomination, was
made public, Wednesday morning, and the
following are the most important parts of
it. It speaks for itaelf.
THE TARIFF QUESTION.
The issue cannot now be obscured. It
is not a contest between schedules, but be
tween wide-apart principles. The foreign
competitors of our market have, with
quick instinct, seen how one issue of this
contest may bring them advantage, and
our own people are not so dull as to miss
or neglect the grave interests that are in
volved for them. The assault upon our
protective system is open and defiant.
Protection is assailed as unconstitutional
in law. or as vicious in principle, and those I
who hold such views sincerely cannot stop
short of an absolute elimination from our
tariff laws of the principle of protection.
The Mills bill is only a step, but it is to
wards an object that the leaders of Demo
cratic thought and legislation have clearlj
in mind.
The important question is not so much
the length of the step as the direction of it.
Judged by the Executive message of De
cember last, by the Mills bill, by the de
bates in Congress and by the St. Louis
platform, the Democratic party will, if
supported by the country, place the Uriff
laws upon a purely revenue basis. This is
practical free trade —free trade in the Eng
lish sense. The legend upon the banner
may not be "Free Trade;" it may be the
more obscure motto. "Tariff Reform;" but
neither the banner nor the inscription is
conclusive, or, indeed,very important. The
assault itself is the important fact.
Those who teach that the import duty
upon foreign goods sold in our market is
paid by the consumer, aud that the price
of the domestic competing article is en
hanced to the amount of the duty on the
imported article—that every million of dol
lars collected for customs duties represents
many millions more which do not reach
the treasury, but are paid by onr citizens
as the increased cost of domestic produc
tions resulting from the tariff laws —may
not intend to discredit in the minds of
others onr system of levying duties on com
peting foreign products, but it is clearly al
ready discredited in their own. We cannot
doubt, without impugning their integrity,
that if free to act upon their convictions,
they would so revise our laws as to lay the
burden of the customs revenue upon arti
cles that are not produced in this country,
and to place upon tiic free list all compet
ing foreign products.
I do not stop to refute this theory as to
the effect of our tariff duties. Those who
advance it are students of maxims and not
of the markets. They may be safely allow
ed to call their project "Tariff Reform' if
the people understand that in the end the
argument compels free trade in all compet
ing products. This end may not be reach
ed abruptly, and its approach may be ac
companied with some expressions of sym
pathy for our protected industries and our
working people, but it will certainly come,
if these early steps do not arouse the peo
ple to effective resistance.
REPI BLICAN DOCTRINE.
The Republican party holds that a pro
tective tariff is constitutional, wholesome
and necessary. We do not offer a fixed
suhedtilo, bat a principle. We will revise
the schedule, modify rates, but always
with an intelligent provision as to the
effect upon domestic production and the
wages of our working people. We believe
it to be one of the worthy objects of tariff
legislation to prem?rye the Aiuferieftn mar
kets for American producers, and to main
tain the American scale of wages by ade
quate discriminating duties upon foreign
competing products. The effect of lower
rates and larger importations npon the pub
revenue is contingent and doubtful, but not
so the effect upon American production
and American wages. Less work and
lower wages must be accepted as the inev
itable result of the increased offering of for
eign good* in our market. By way of re
compense for this reduction in bis wages
and the loss of the American market, it is
suggested that the diminished wages of the
workingmau will have an undiminished
purchasing power, and that he will be able
to make up for the loss of the homo market
by an enlarged foreign market. Our work -
ingiuen have the settlement of the ques
tion in their own bands. They now ob
tain higher wages and live more comforta
bly than those of auy other country. They
will make choice between the substantial
ad vantages they have in hand and the de
ceptive promises and forecasts of these
theorizing reformers. They will decide for
themselves anil for the country whether
the protective system shall be continued or
destroyed.
TTIE TREASURY SI'RKLUS.
The fact of a treasury surplus, the amount
of which is variously stated, has directed
public attention to a consideration of the
methods by which the National income
may best be reduced to the level of a wise
and necessary expenditure. This condition
has been seized upon by those who are hos
tile to protective custom duties as an ad
vantageous base of attack upon onr tariff
laws. They have magnified and nursed
the surplus, which they affect to deprecate,
seemingly for the purpose of exaggerating
the evil in order to reconcile the people to
the extreme remedy they propose. A
proper reduction of the revenue does not
necessitate, and should not suggest, the
abandonment or impairment of the pro
tective system. The methods suggested
by our convention will not iigud to bo ex
hausted in order to effect the necessary re
duction. We are not likely to bo called
upon, I think, to make b present choice be
tween the surrender of our protective sys
tem aud the entire repeal of the internal
taxes. Such a contingency, in view of the
present relation of expenditures to reve
nues, is remote. The inspection and regu
lation of the manufacture and sale of oleo
margarine is important, and the revenue
derived from it is not so great that the re
peal of the law need enter into any plan of
revenue reduction. The surplus now in
the treasury should bo used in the pur
chase of lHinds. The law authorizes this
use of it, and if it Is not needed for current
or deficiency appropriations, the people,
ami not the banks, in which it has been de
posited, should have the advantage of its
use by stopping interest upon the public
debt. At least those who needlessly hoard
it should not be allowed to use the fear of
a monetary stringency, thus produced, to
coerce public sentiment upou other ques
tions.
IMPORTATION OK KORBION LABOR.
Closely connected with the subject of the
tariff is that of the importation of foreign
laborers under contracts of services to lie
performed here. The law now in force,
prohibiting such contracts, received my
cordial support in the Senate, mid such
amendments as may be found necessary ef
fectively to deliver onr workingmen and
women from this most inevitable form of
competition will have my sincere advocacy.
Legislation prohibiting the importation of
laborers under contracts to s<>rve here will,
however, afford very inadequate relief to
our working people if the system of pro
tective duties is broken down. If the pro
ducts of American shops must compete iu
the American market, without favoriug
duties, with the products of cheap foreign
labor, the effect will be different, if at all,
ouly in degree, whether the cheap labor is
across the street or over the sea. Such
competition will SOOQ reduce wages here
to the level of those abroad, and when that
condition is reached we will not ueod any
laws forbidding the importation oi laborers
under contract—they will have no induce-
ment to come, and the employemo induce
ments to send for them.
In the earlier years of onr history public
agencies to promote immigration were com
mon. The pioneer wanted a neighbor with
more friendly instincts than the indian.
Labor was scarce and fully employed. But
the day of the immigration bureau has gone
has gone by. While our doors will con
tinue open to proper immigration, we do
not need to issue special invitations to the
inhabitants of other countries to come to
our shores or to share our citizenship. In
deed. the necessity of some inspe tion and
limitation is obvious. We should resolute
ly refuse to permit foreign governments to
send their paupers and criminals to our
ports. We are also clearly under a duty
to defend our civilization by excluding
alien races whose ultimate assimilation
with our people is neither possible nor de
sirable. The family has been the nucleous
of our best immigration and the home the
most potent assimilating force on our civi
lization.
The objections to Chinese immigration
are distinctive and conclusive, and are now
so generally accepted as such that the
question has passed entirely beyond the
stage of argument. The laws relating to
this subject would, if I Bhould be
with their enforcement, be faithfully . exe
ecuted. Such amendments or further leg
islation as may be necessary and proper to
prevent evasions of the laws and to stop
further Chinese immigration would also
meet my approval. The expression of the
convention on this subject is in entire nar
mony with my views.
TRUSTS.
The declaration of the convention against
"all combinations of capital, organized in
trusts or otherwise, to control arbitrarily
the condition of trade among our citizens,"
is in harmony villi the views entertained
and publicly expressed by me long before
the assembling of the convention. Ordi
narily. capital shares the losses of idleness
with labor, but under the operation of the
trust, in some of its forms, the wage-work -
er alone suffers loss, while idle capital re
ceives its dividends from a trust fund.
Producers who refuse to join the combina
tion are destroyed, and competition as an
element of prices is eliminated. It cannot
be doubted that the legislative authority
should and will find a method of dealing
fairly and effectively with these and other
abuses connected with this subject.
PENSIONS.
It can hardly be necessary for me to say
that I am heartily in sympathy with the
declaration of the convention upon the sub
ject of pensions to our soldiers and sailors.
What they gave and what they suffered I
had some opportunity to observo, and, in a
small measure, to experience. They gave
ungrudgingly; it was not a trade, but an
offering. The measure was heaped up,
running over. What they achieved only a
distant generation can adequately tell.
Without attempting to discuss particular
propositions, I may add that measures in
behalf of the surviving veterans of the war
and of the families of their dead comrades
should be conceived and executed in a
spirit of justice and most grateful liberali
ty, and that, in the coinpetiou for civil ap
pointment, honorable military service
should have appropriate recognition.
TRMI'KiUNCK.
1 notice with pleasure that the conven
tion did not omit to express its solicitude for
the promotion of virtue and temperance
among our people. The Republican party
has always lateu friendly to everything that
tended to make the home life of ourpeople
free, pure and prosperous, aiul will in the
future be true to its history in this respect.
RELATIONS WITH VORKIUN POWERS.
Our relations with foreign powers should
be characterized by friendliness and re
spect. The right of our people and and of
our ships to hospitable treat ment should be
insisted upon with dignity and firmness.
Our Nation is too great, both in material
strength and in moral power, to indulge in
bluster or t i be sospeeted of timorousness.
Vacilliatiou and inconsistency are as in
compatible with swee tsful diplomacy as
they are with tin- Xational dignity. We
should especially cultivate and extend our
diplomatic anil coinulci'cial relations with
the Central and South American States.
Our fisheries should be fostered and protect
ed. The hardship-" and risks that are the
eccessary incident of the business should
not be increased by an iuhospital exclusion
from the near-lying ports. The resources
of a firm, dignified and consistent diploma
cy are undoubtedly epnal to the prompt
and peaceful solution of the difficulties that
now exist. Our neighbors will surely not
expect in our port* a commercial hospitali
ty they deny to us in theirs.
I cannot extend this letter by a specal
reference to other subjects upon which the
convention gave an expression. In re
spect to them, as well as to those I have
noticed, I am in entire agreement with the
declarations of the convention. The reso
lutions relating to the coinage, to the re
building of the navy, to coast defences and
to public lands, express conclusions to all
of which I gave my support in the Senate.
In inviting a calm and thoughtful con
sideration of these public pucstions, we
submit them to the people. Their intelli
gent patriotism and the good Providence
that made and has kept us a Nation, will
lead thein to wise and safe conclusions.
Very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
BENJAMIN HARRISON.

FROM AN OLD TIMER.
Six POINTS. ALLEGHENY TP.. BI TLER T
Co., PA., Sept. 5, 18S8. S
ED. CITIZEN: —I observe that, in your
Muster Roll of Harrison Veterans, my
name does not appear. I don t feel slight
ed in consequence thereof, but, on the con
trary, censure my own dereliction.
I would not have you infer from my
tardiness in reporting myself that I am
ashamed of voting for William Henry Har
rison in 183G and in 1840. or that I will not
vote lor General Benjamin Harrison at the
ensuing election, for I am proud of having
supported the former and glad of the op
portunity to support the latter.
If. after voting for the gallant and pa
triotic General Harrison in 18110. when lie,
with White, Webster, and Mar.gum was
defeated by the consummate trickster. Van
Buren, and in 1840 when he overwhelm
ingly defeated Van Buren, I should be so
unstable, so erratic, and so inconsistent as
to now support Cleveland and Thurman,
or even their tender, their decoy-ducks,
their man Friday, so to speak,—by the
which I mean the Prohibition ticket I
would feel most heartily ashamed of that.
If all wrong politically, Fisk is all
right personally; but we can't brook that
Brooks, his associate on the Prohibition
ticket, who is an ex-slave-driver, ex-slave
holder, ex-rebel, ex-secessionist, ex-fire
eatinir-Democrat, and ex-the-devil gener
ally.
lam now 86 years old. I voted for John
Quincy Adams in 1824; for Adams again iu
1828; for Henry Clay in 1832; for General
William Henry Harrison in 1830; for Har
rison again in 1840; for Henry Clay again
in 1844; for General Zachariah Taylor in
1848; for General Winfi'eld Scott in 1852;
for General John C. Fremont iu 185 C; lor
Abraham Lincoln in 1800; for Abraham
Lincoln again in 1864; for General Ulysses
S. Grant in 1808; for General Grant again
in 1N72; for General Rutherford B. Hayes
iu 1870; for General James A. Garfield in
1880; and for James G. Hlaine in 1884;—10
Presidents—and, so help ine God, I will not
now, nor hereafter, vote for any man. be
he an alleged Christian, or avowed devil,
who, for four long years, did all he could
to strike down my country, or who even
sympathized with, or in an}' way aided or
abetted those who were engaged iu that
unholy and diabolical attempt to disrupt
and dismember this glorious Union ol Irel
and Independent States —this great -d and
grandest, the fairest and brightest ever the
sun shown upon.
(leneral Harrison, our present standard
bearer, has well raid in one id Ills noble,
public utterances that, "The man who lived
through the War ol the Rebellion and did
lint make Home saet'ilice for the success of
the Union armies—who did not say one
brave word, nor do one brave thing, when,
with bare and bleeding breasts, our sol
diem looked into the very face of death l'or
their country—can never lie enshrined as
the soldiers' friend." Well said: but I
move to amend by adding the words: "and
is unworthy to be an American citizen,
much less to hold high and exalted posi
tion in our government."
I voted for one General Harrison iu IBM
and IH4O iu order to obtuin a protective
tariff; I will now vote, in thisyearof grace.
IHBK, for the other (leneral Harrison in
order to w<iinln in a protective tarili. I
will not vote thai 1 was a fool then, or give
grounds lor suspicion that 1 am one now.
I firmly believe in, not only the right, but
the (luti/ of our government to protect
American industries and American labor
against the well known cheap labor of Eu
rope, and I will not stultily myself iu tlii
belief by going to the polls ami voting lor
Cleveland, risk, Hclva Lock wood, or an;/
otlur old lady, and thus convince myself,
and demonstrate to the rest ol mankind
that I don't know exactly what 1 am in
favor of. I will not believe, as I do, in the
governmental policy of protection, and
then go to the polls and vote that 1 am
wrong in that belief; but I will vote lor
(leneral Harrison, feeling assured, the
while, that my ballot will carry with il
some weight, some force, and my belief in
a protection tariff be thereby rendered
efficacious, or, at least, tend in that direc
tion. The tariff question, lam constrain
ed to believe, is the great one in the pend
ing campaign. I' II til it shall have been
put II |M in an irrevocable basis, 1 for one
will subordinate every other issue to it. I
will not bite off more than I can properly
masticate.
In looking back along the long line ol
my political history, I congratulate myself
that I have made as few mistakes as the
ordinary enfranchised citizen usually make.-.
I arrive at this conclusion, not through
egotism, but in the light of subsequent
events and impartial American hi lory.
The record of my political career is a lega
cy which I bequeath to my posterity with
feelings of pride and sati''faction, enjoining
upon them to keep pace, in their political
affiliations, as I believe my record will
show I have done, with the progress and
development of this great Xa'!o:>.
