" The panic of 1887, brought on by over speculation and too much confidence in the great governmental prosperity as a rop for individual prosperity, had re uced the nation to poverty. Men were out of work, bank deposits had been lost in bank wrecks and the-country was in a terrible condition. Whether rightly or wrongly, the party In power was held to be responsible and the Whig landslide waa Inevitable. ; Enter Thad Stevens When the Whim met at Harrlahiirv there.; were three- candidates: Henry Clay, the real soul of the party; William Henry - Harrison and Wlnf laid Scott. Thaddeus Stevens made his first entry into the realm of practical and dirty politics in this convention. He was anti Mason and he soon convinced the con ventio that It would be impossible to get the anti-Mason vote for Clay who waa a Royal Arch Mason.

"That Steven was for Harrison because he had a letter I from Harrison Dromlslna him a cabinet position if Harrison was nominated and elected. " Stevens also had a letter from General 8cott written to Francis Granger In which Scott was flirting with the aboli tionist sentiment tn New York with a view of set Una- votes in the oenventlon. Stevens, with careful carelessness, let this letter drop on the floor of the Vir ginia neaoauarier room, it was xouna and read.

Another remarkable feature of the campaign of 1140 was the establishment of the Abolition party. Ita candidate for President, James G.

It was a great day and Harrison made a great speech. He then began his fa mous hand-shaking tournament which, according to the popular belief at that time, caused his death one month after he was inaugurated president. People came In wagona for more than 300 miles to the Tippecanoe meeting and there were 80,000 people there.
