People of Huntingdon county; of the
honest masses who can neither be bribed

to the coming election. They know the

confidence in the integrity of our candi•

they were in 1844, when "Polk, Dallas

success. The peoples' recollection of the
Tariff fraud of 44 was refreshed, and
their just indignation renewed by the stu•

two years ago. 'They will not again con
