JORDAN 1896- 1984 Harold came to Gilmanton Iron Works in I936 for his health. He was a farmer, teacher and artist. He worked in various art media including wood and stone sculpture, oil painting, pastels and ceramics but is best knmm for his pen and ink sketches depicting local scenes. Inspiration for "High Street Before The Fire" grew from research of the Town history and was drawn from pictures and descriptions of the Iron Works before the disaster. Harold moved from his farm on Guinea Ridge in I952 to a house in the Village on High Street. This house is now occupied by one of his grandsons and his family. Trivia: Can you find the artist 's inscription in the front cover sketch? H. P.

  • The Invisible Primary and the 1996 Presidential Nomination
    The Invisible Primary and the 1996 Presidential Nomination Thomas R. Marshall, University of Texas at Arlington The 1996 presidential nominations process will not begin with the first state primaries and caucuses. By January 1996 the candidates had already spent millions of dollars and thousands of days campaigning during the "in­ visible primary." The 1996 nominations race features several new prac­ tices—such as the front-loading of delegate-selection events, and the re- emergence of Washington insiders as the early GOP leaders. For the first time since 1964 the Democrat Party did not face a spirited nominations race. This article reviews the prenomination season for the 1996 presidential race with evidence available by early January 1996. Public Opinion Public opinion remained relatively stable during the 1995 "invisible primary," just as it typically has in recent presidential contests.1 Heavy spending in key primary and caucus states, debates among the candidates, and the entry and exit of candidates all failed to move public opinion polls during 1995. In the absence of saturation media coverage and media labeling of "winners" and "losers" in the early caucuses and primaries, few dramatic poll shifts appeared. The Republicans Throughout 1995, the Gallup Poll reported only slight changes in the first-choice preferences of self-identified Republicans and independents leaning Republicans. Between April 1995 and January 1996, front-runner Bob Dole’s support varied only from a low of 45 percent to a high of 51 percent. Support for Senator Phil Gramm varied only from a low of seven percent to a high of 13 percent.
