LOG CABINS were in the Harrison-Tippecanoe campaign of 1840 erected in the large cities and villages, and used for holding political meetings. Barrels of hare cider were placed in front of the cabins, and the "Log Cabins hard cider campaign of '40" has passed into history as the most enthusiastic of our political contests. Log Cabins have for this reason a permanent place in American history. warner's Log Cabin Remedies and "Tippecano's" tonic bitters have secured a permanent place because of their excellence. ~ The Newton (Iowa) Journal 1888.
