jioiutt'd his constit n nts mnl 1 -tia.Vfil
a most hiirivtl iroiuihf of the
liii ty to t lif it (iilf. Uy tlniiit,' ho,
however, he iiieurrel the ill will of
t lie liquor tltliltlit who will UpJIOht
his thi tiuii. On the otLer hanJ the
ju.stiii ss of the measure appeals to
et ly hoin -t Mitt-r mnl toiit-hes the
mod tt-inler rput of every tux-payer
tlie .poikct louk-us it bringH
thou.xaiuls of dollars into city,
horouh and township treasuries
and In .lps to bear the burden of tax
ation.
iSecoHtl. Yes ; he voted to nub
mit the Constitutional Amendment
to the people of Pennsylvania. Iu
voting fur the Ann ndim nt Mr, Hel-
frich did what every honest letfisla
tor would Lave done under himilar
circumstances. The better dass of
jieolpe are opposed to the liquor
traffic as carried ou at the present
lay. They demund the ritfht to
vote on this question, and when the
people demand a rit'ht their repre
st utatives are bound to tfive it to
tliem. The moment representatives
cease to carry out the wishes and
instructions of their constituents
they become unworthy Kervants. A
IJepublican member of the l'ennsyl.
vunia Legislature would betray his
constituents and the principles laid
down by his party if lie should re
fuse to vote for the Amendment.
Third. No; he did not vote for
the six month's school term as will
be found in the House Journal,
paja-s 400 and 401, House bill No. 30.
Here will be found n record of the
final passage of the bill 1'4 voting
fur and ,i ugainst the bill. Mr. Hel
frich appears among the nays. Much
as he may be in favor of six months
of school, ho was more in favor of
allowing the directors of the respec
tive districts tho privilege of decid
ing the length of their school terms.
Id this and the above instances he
manifested implicit confidence in
the wisdom and judgment of bin
constituents to govern themselves,
and as such his actions in the mat
ter are entirely in accord with the
wishes of the people.
Fourth. No ; he did not Tote to
repeal the scalp act. See House
Journal, page 7M House Bill No. 64.
Its final pussago was accomplishes
by 115 voting for and 3.S against
Mr. Helfrich will be found recorded
among the 38. Ho not only votet
against it but did all in his power to
defeat it.
Tho editor of the I'ost w ill at al
times take pleasure in answering
questions of this kind when it is in
our power to do so. "Honest pol
tics" seems growing in demand ant
the progressive man must prepare
to meet tho truth face to face am
stand or fall by it. In this county
both parties have made their uonii
nations all honorable men ami as
honorable men we believe them
ready to stand by their records for
w eal or woo and crush the cam
paigu liar bo ho friend or foe.
Harrison's Unique Part
Oeiiend Harrison has played a uni
que part in this campaign. Never
before was a presidential candidat
of any party visited, day after day
ly so many men representing so
many trades ami avocations as has
tieneral Harrison since the day o;
his nomination, and scarcely ever in
the history of any campaign has anv
candidate been able to touch upon
so many live topics of tho day with
out "putting his foot in it." His
speeches have been characteiii
from the first by tho greatest goot
sense, thu highest order of ability in
public speaking, and of winning
politeness in public speaking. This
has been no surprise to Genera
Harrison's friends, for thev knew
the man, and knew that ho luu
never been found unequal to anv oc
fusion, l Ins was true of linn in the
scliool-room .and tin tin; stump, in
his law ollice and in the court room
on tho battle-field and in the Senate
Accounting for this happy condition
of things the Cincinnati ( mtu n uil
(iuzvttc says.: "General Harrison
is strong and ready because he lias
lieen a liard-workiiiiriiiiui all his lift'
atnl Ins fucultits have been tlisiplm
ed mid mailt! alert mid eei'iitivi
He has earned all ho has, ami his
habits of application abide with him
