who recollect. that Polk,whih's candidate for
the Presidency, , Wrotia letter to a friend In
Penns)lvanis stating that be wasln favor of
Protection - this letter weir published!---and
they will also recollect that Mr. r. W. Hughes
in a public discUssion on the strength - of this
letter, attempted to prbve that Bilk was a
better tariff ratan than Henry Clay—and they
also inscribed on their banners in Pen inyiva
nia, but nowhti.e. else, "Polk, talkie and the
Tariff of 1842." They carried PenntiyiVahla
on this . plea, and you &IV know • that one of
their first actions was to repeal the Tariff of
.1812 as soon as they nbtained power. You
also all know that when the. bill for , the re
peal of the Taritl' of 1842 Was introduced,
Mr. F. W. Hughes rushed to Washington . ,
And remcinstrateti against the repeal, stating,
that they- voted lor . Polk as a Tariffman, and
they rallied andel:- the banner of "Polk, Dal
las and the Tariff of 1842," on the strength
•of Polk's letter in Wier of Protection. You
will also recollect how they told Mr. Hughes
that if he was such a' fool as to be guided by
• a letter written by a candidate to catch votes,
when - the plank in the platform of the party
was Free Trade, they could.not help it-z-the
platform governed the candidate in spite of
all the letters •he might write,- and Mr.
Hughes ought to have known-that—and the
only alternative for him was to acquiesce in
the principles of the party,.cir leave it. Mr.
Hughes came home-quite chop-fallen did ac
quiesce tio as to-remain quiet, and immediate- -
t,y sold some. lands he had purchased, .predi
catO on the continuance of the Tariff of
1842, - and which he believed would he de
tareased...by the repeal of said - Tari ff of 1342,
•and they
. were purchased by the 14te Burd
Patterson and- others.• e ,
Under these circumstances with a.lfee Trade
Plank in •the so-called •Democratic Plat
form, Mr. Glen Inger as a Democrat, which he
declares he is, his letter is intended to catch
votes, and is a most shameful fraud Upon the
•people—ll is stealing the livery of Heaven to
serve the - Devil in, and those 'Who' vote for,
him as a Protectionist, will be duped quite'
as bad as Mr. Hughes and thiausands of oth
er Democoats in Pennsylvania were under
the flag. of "Polk „.Dallaa and: the Tariff Of
1842." They ;Were deceived by a letter-writ
-
ten by a-candidate which conflicted with the
platform tof. , the party; they had some ex
cussto do ,so; hut with the result of that'
fraud before them, those who-now-vote in a'
simAlarmanner nn a mere letter from a can
didate, 'tntended to catch votes inOppOsition
to the platforin of the party, 410.11; i -with their
eyes open, and canjuive no exe*. •If Mr.
Glerhinger is a 'protectionist, he is bouod to
leave the Democratic Party—this-he has not

Killinger has serveil'in Congress-1e has al
ways been an advocate forProtectiOn, and al
ways.voted for it; and is today abetter Dem
