Excerpt from The Desecration and Profanation of the Pennsylvania Capitol We in Pennsylvania have recently been giv' ing a like exhibition of ourselves. We havetreated our Capitol after the same fashion, with a similar lack of decency and good sense. For four years I have waited patiently until the Courts should finish their consideration of the cases brought before them. It was the only proper course to pursue. It would have been better for the material interests and the reputation of the Commonwealth if others had acted with the same sense of propriety. I now propose to speak. It is my duty. Nor do I intend to assume any affectation of modesty. Between you and me in this matter it shall be an effort only to reach the truth, and all other motives and impulses shall be disregard ed. I do not ask the acceptance of any state ment herein made as a fact unless it is verified or be capable of verification from the record, and I do not ask you to be in uenced by any of my reasoning unless it appeals to your judg ment, but I intend that those both now and hereafter who care to be informed, and to be correct in their conclusions, shall have the bene fit of such information as I possess with regard to men and events and such intelligence as I am able to bring to the subject. I claim now the right to be heard. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
