Whig Vigilance in Ohio Politics and Pole Destruction
A historical Ohio item details Whig frustrations with Locofocos in Orwellian fashion, noting deputy marshals selling Extra Globes, urging citizens to police electioneering. It recounts May night discussions, local vote tallies favoring Van Buren, and a pole-planting incident at Ashtabula led by Whig locals against Liberty poles. It also rebukes Van Buren papers for citing British war-era sources to undermine Harrison.
