THE CORRESPONDENCE of ISAAC CRAIG DURING the WHISKEY REBELLION Edited by Kenneth A
"SUCH DISORDERS CAN ONLY BE CURED BY COPIOUS BLEEDINGS": THE CORRESPONDENCE OF ISAAC CRAIG DURING THE WHISKEY REBELLION Edited by Kenneth A. White of the surprisingly underutilized sources on the early history Oneof Pittsburgh is the Craig Papers. Acase inpoint is Isaac Craig's correspondence during the Whiskey Rebellion. Although some of his letters from that period have been published, 1 most have not. This omission is particularly curious, because only a few eyewitness ac- counts of the insurrection exist and most ofthose were written from an Antifederalist viewpoint. These letters have a value beyond the narration of events, how- ever. One of the questions debated by historians is why the federal government resorted to force to put down the insurrection. Many have blamed Alexander Hamilton for the action, attributing it to his per- sonal approach to problems or to his desire to strengthen the central government. 2 These critics tend to overlook one fact : government officials make decisions based not only on their personal philosophy but also on the facts available to them. As a federal officer on the scene, Craig provided Washington and his cabinet with their informa- Kenneth White received his B.A. and M.A.degrees from Duquesne Uni- versity. While working on his master's degree he completed internships with the Adams Papers and the Institute of Early American History and Culture. Mr. White is presently working as a fieldarchivist for the Pennsylvania His- torical and Museum Commission's County Records Survey and Planning Study.— Editor 1 Portions of this correspondence have been published.

The Trial of David Bradford by William Cameron © 2019 Page | 1 (A
The Trial of David Bradford by William Cameron © 2019 P a g e | 1 (A courtroom. The actor portraying Daniel REDICK, in plain contemporary dress, addresses the audience.) REDICK David Bradford got away. The Whiskey Rebellion’s notorious leader escaped and never faced trial for his allegedly treasonous actions during the Insurrection of 1794. According to the tale that everyone tells but no one believes, David Bradford was enjoying the comforts of his palatial home, perhaps enjoying a whiskey, when word came that a cavalry unit with orders to arrest him was just outside the gate. Our intrepid protagonist leapt from a rear second-story window onto his faithful steed who, by some miracle, was not only saddled up and ready to go, but knew just where to stand. David then rode off into the autumn night, the cavalry hot on his trail but clearly no match for his superior horsemanship. (The actor begins to don his costume—suitable for a prominent attorney in 1795 America.) It’s nonsense, of course. In truth, Bradford left town in a most unhurried fashion and traveled in relative comfort on a coal barge down the Ohio River. I’m sure it was a most pleasant voyage. (Beat, as the actor dons his wig, continues to prepare.) I like to believe David Bradford made up that first story himself. It does allow him a mythical status that, perhaps, he deserves. Of course, he could’ve secured that status in another way, and that is what brings us here this evening. Let’s imagine, shall we, that, oh…say, when David Bradford leapt from that rear window, his horse wasn’t quite so accommodating, and the poor man ended up on his seditious backside in the rose bushes.

Guarding the Republican Interest: the Western Pennsylvania Democratic Societies and the Excise Tax Jeffrey A
Guarding the Republican Interest: The Western Pennsylvania Democratic Societies and the Excise Tax Jeffrey A. Davis Bloomsburg University In 1793 Democratic societies emerged and spread quickly throughout the new nation. These dubs numbered as many as forty-two and ranged in location from Massachusetts to Georgia. The societies saw themselves as watch- dogs of republican virtue, ready to inform the public of any indiscretions that might threaten liberty by either state or federal government. The Pennsylvania Democratic-Republican societies-despite differences in levels of activity, or- ganizational structure, and community interests-used issues such as the Proc- lamation of Neutrality, the Jay Mission, and most especially the excise tax, to define and to draw distinctions between themselves and the Washington ad- ministration. Rather than producing uniform and rigid ideological organiza- tions, the unity that was forged around principles and ideals both allowed, and sometimes required, club leaders to respond pragmatically to local and regional needs and interests. The Whiskey Rebellion of 1794 was a case in point. Historians have previously underestimated and misunderstood the role of the western Democratic Societies in the rebellion. The-records of local soci- ety meetings demonstrate that the membership of the societies in the west stressed both ideological and pragmatic reasons for repeal of the excise tax. Both eastern and western societies advocated changing the law through peace- ful constitutional means. Members of the societies in the west were certainly concerned with local autonomy. However, their methods-such as resolu- tions, remonstrances and electioneering-as well as the language they spoke went well beyond the local.

Early Pittsburgh Lawyers and the Frontiers of Argument and Dissent
EARLY PITTSBURGH LAWYERS AND THE FRONTIERS OF ARGUMENT AND DISSENT Ron Schuler* ABSTRACT Pittsburgh, during the period from 1788 through the 1840s, was a city on the frontier of the American Republic. Amid the privations and risks of living in the frontier, the political discourse of the early lawyers of the bar Pittsburgh often concerned itself with questions of self-determination and dissent from the establishment. The methods of argument and dissent by Pittsburgh’s early lawyers also reflected the harshness of life on the frontier, as seen in such episodes as the Whiskey Rebellion, the impeachment of Judge Alexander Addison, and the duel between Tarleton Bates and Ephraim Pentland. Henry Baldwin, a Pittsburgh lawyer who had participated in his own duel as well as being a key player in the Bates- Pentland affair, was appointed to the United States Supreme Court in 1830, and as an associate justice he played a key role in creating the institution of the dissenting opinion on the Court—a fact which may be seen within this context as a frontier influence on American jurisprudence. The end of the early bar and its concerns with dissent coincides with the Civil War, in which 115 Allegheny County lawyers—many of them middle-aged with lucrative practices in full bloom—risked life and limb to preserve order within the Republic. * Managing Member of the Pittsburgh office of Spilman, Thomas & Battle, PLLC. Portions of this article are excerpted from an unpublished work-in-progress, commissioned by the Allegheny County Bar Association, tentatively entitled The Steel Bar: Reinventions of the Legal Profession in an American City of Industry and Commerce, 1788-Present.
