Of the different racial strains that mingled their blood with the earlier English--Irish, Huguenot-French, German, Scots-Irish--the last was by far the most important . . . They were desperately poor; the available lands near the coast were already preempted; so armed with axes, their seed potatoes, and the newly invented rifle, they plunged into the backwoods to become our great pioneering race. Scattered thinly through a long frontier, they constituted the outposts and buffer settlements of civilization. A vigorous breed, hardy, assertive, individualistic, thrifty, trained in the democracy of the Scottish Kirk, they were the material out of which later Jacksonian democracy was to be fashioned, the creators of that western type in which politics and industry became ultimately the American type.
