When Theodore Roosevelt, 26th President of the United States, and Grover Cleveland, 22nd President, used the authority of their office in meeting series economic disturbances durinflr their terms, there were those who Questioned the Presidential power ?»Wjr the historic precedent for such acts. But the powee and - the precedent'had been established by the First President, George Washington, who omitted not eVer. this detail from the countless other lasting examples and precedents he set i|i ..putting i~i motion the machinery of our govertfipent. • j The disturbance thai moved President Washington to this first test pf Federal power in „ putting down a serious threat to its stability was the famous "Whisky Insurrection" which originated during his first ac|ininjs- I r a i i o n . _ ' - i ; • • j r TW hi^ric tJ^rw ttjf T>y v'sion of Information and Publication of the United States George Washington Bicentennial Commission points out, .was not, as its name implies, a moral difference on the wet-an-dry issue.. It had its origin in an ecrmomic questioa «nd was much like the Serious strikes which the later Presidents. Cleveland and Roosevelt, were called on to master. The chief difference in the "Whiskey Insurrection" was that this "strike" ran afoul of a federal law, and hence directly invited Federal interference. * The trouble began in the early 1790's. By then the valleys west" ward of the Alleganies were producing whejit, but not yet had roads or other means of transportation been developed. As a result it was found that the easiest way to ship this wheat Was in the form of whiskey, and distilling became the principal industry of the four western countries' of Pennsylvania. In 1791 the young, and still needy, government of the United States, casting about for revenues, passed an excise law that laid something of a load on western Pennsylvania's chief industrial product. Quite apart from the moral aspects of the question, the Pennsylvania distillers looked upon this cut in their profits as an unjust discrimination against an industry, and under the leadership of one David Bradford, they promptly "organized" and ptit up resistance to the law. This in itself was direct defiance of federal authority, and the situation was further darkened when federal officers who attempted to seize the chief offenders were driven away by force. Neville, federal tax collector, was besieged in his own house. In no verjr long time these first "insurgents" had cowed all other elements ajjout them and Were virtual dictators of their end of Pennsylvania. The real gravity of this fit-st threat to the stability of the new United States government liay in the fact that these insurgents were not precisely hoddlums but were men who in "these days would regard themselves as "industrialists." At a convention of 200 of their delegates-which met in 1794 at Perkinson's Ferry, on the Monongahela, they were able to command as their secretary the services »f a man like ^oung Albert Gallatin, then living in the neighborhood- This convention, by the way, was met by three commissioners appointed by President Washington, together with other commissioners appointed by the Governor of Pennsylvania, who promised amnesty to the insurgents on their promiSe'So go home and be- •The offer was re- SLOCUMSULZ!
