Election of 1880
THE COMMERCIAL ASPECTS OF THE PRESENT POLITICAL CONTEST. HOW WOULD THE SUCCESS OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AT THE APPROACHING PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION AFFECT THE COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL INTERESTS OF THIS COUNTRY np 1880
1880. Caption title as issued. 8pp with light wear and old folds. 'No. 86.' printed at top of first page. Good. A Republican campaign pamphlet arguing that the triumph of the 'Solid South' would impoverish the country. Southerners have "the conceit of political sagacity. It is their boast that this country will never be properly governed until Southern statesmanship shall again bear sway." But when the numbers are crunched the South has lagged behind the North in every index of economic prosperity. The Solid South's share of the "commercial industrial financial and educational interests of the country" is disproportionately small. Its pretensions to "dictate the course of the National Government" is absurd. OCLC locates 12 under two accession numbers. unknown books

Election of 1880
WORKINGMEN READ! A TARIFF FOR PROTECTION VS. A TARIFF FOR REVENUE ONLY. GEN. GARFIELD A PROTECTIONIST. GEN. HANCOCK A FREE TRADER. THE PROOF.
Concord NH 1880. Broadside 11-3/8" x 15-1/4". Printed in a variety of type sizes and fonts. Bit of wrinkling else Very Good. <br/><br/> General James Garfield was the Republicans' 1880 presidential candidate; General Winfield Scott Hancock ran for the Democrats. Garfield's supporters claim here that protective tariffs "favor American labor." Garfield's laudable support for tariffs is contrasted with the views of Hancock and his party. Reduction or elimination of tariffs would "be a movement to equalize wages here with the lowest prevailing in the Old World."<br/> We suggest a New Hampshire imprint because that State's Democratic candidate for Governor Frank Jones is pilloried here for opposing protective legislation.<br/>Not located on OCLC or the online sites of AAS New Hampshire Historical Society or Rauner Library as of April 2020. unknown books

SOME OF THE FOUNDERS OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND VETERANS OF THE WAR SPEAK
New York 1892. Folio broadside 10" x 13" printed in three columns beneath caption title. Minor wear at blank upper edge Very Good plus.<br/><br/> "The Republican party of 1860 was the exponent of the grandest ideas and the most ennobling sentiments but to what abysmal depths has it fallen in these times. It now stands for nothing more than a corrupting combination between plutocrats and politicians to plunder the people." <br/> Three former Republicans express their dismay at their Party's moral collapse in the Gilded Age and their indignation at Republican mistreatment of Union Civil War veterans. They announce their plans to vote for Grover Cleveland the Democratic candidate in the upcoming presidential election. They are confident "that the interests of the old soldiers are safe with the Democratic party and Grover Cleveland who has always been sincere who has always kept his promises." <br/> The three are William Green District Attorney of Fulton County NY; Harrison Clark "once Dep't Comd'r of N.Y. G.A.R. and George B. Loud Past Jun. Vice Dep't Comd'r of Florida G.A.R." They express their disappointment and anger in these printed letters dated in early October 1892 to Theodore F. Reed Secretary of the National Veterans' Tariff Reform League.<br/>Not located on OCLC as of June 2020 or the online sites of NYPL or NYHS. unknown books
