omy, mid the corruptions which have been so
liauiel'nlly nurs'.Hl uud fostertHl by Audrow
Johnson cull loudly for radical reform.
Kli litli. We ororouuilly denlore the nntlinelv
and tragic death of Abraham Lincoln, and re-
?ret the accession of Andrew Johnson to the
'nwlricncv. wlio has acted treacherously to the
people who elected him anil the cause he was
pledged to support ; has titiurped legislative and
judicial functions, has refused to execute the
laws; has used his high oillce to Induce other
officers to Ignore and violate the laws; lias em
filoyed his executive power to render Insecure

and has been Justly Impeached for high crimes
and misdemeanors, aud proporly pronounced

Ninth. The doctrine of Great Hrltnln and other
European powers, that because a luun Is once
a subjeot he Is alwnys so, must be resisted at
very hazard by the United Htutes as n relic of
the feudal times, not authorised by the law of
nations and at war with our national honor and
Independence. Naturalised citizens are enti
tled to be protected In all their rights of oltl
aenshlpsa though they were native-born, and
no citizen of the United Htates, native or na
turalised, must be liable to arrest and Impris

Tenth. Of all who were faithful in the trials of
(he late war there were nono entitled to more
espeolal honor than tho brave soldiers and sea
men who endured the hardships ot cairpalgn

provided by law for these brave defenders of
the nation ore oougauons nevor to do lorgotten.

Eleventh. Foreign emigration, which In the
post has added so much to the wealth and de

If we niUtake not "vo have employed
this heading before, but then merely
for "peculation or in advocacy of tlto
right of our ' County to tho office.
This time wo uao it to coavey the wol
corue intelligence to our readers that
we have succeeded, that on Friday
last the conferees of the 2Ut District
placed in nomination the man of our
choice, Capt. JWph B. Donley, After
nino day's of balloting and caucusing,
ofhoncst, good natured fighiing, suc
cess was achieved. The conferees of
this county aro deserving of honor for
the persistency displayed in the strug
gle and to them should be accorded n
full shun) of the laurels.
Capt. Joseph Benton Donley is a
native of Orceno County, linving boon
born in Mt. Morris in 1838 aud is
increiore inirty years oi age. ins
father is a Democrat of thu old school
and served two term's in the State
it l si . t TV
Legislature as their representative.
As early as 1852-63, tho timo of the
Kansas and Nebraska troubles, young
Donley identified himself with the
party of which ho is now a member.
Although not entitled to vote he was
known among his sehool-mntes at tho
time as a most vehement anti-Slavery
advocate and when in 18G0tho oppor
tunity was offered to demonstrate his
words by his nets, he cast his first bal
lot for Lincoln and Hamlin. lie is a
graduato of Waynesburg College
of tho class of 69, aud at the breaking
out of tho war resided in Knox Coun
ty, Ills., employed as a professor in
Abingdon College. Tho 83rd Regt,
of Ills, Infantry was raised in that
neighborhood in 18G2, and Donley
actuutcd by impulses alone patriotio,
was mustered into Company I, as a
private, was soon after promoted to
Captain, and served with his company
actively until the closo of the war, be
ing connected with tho Army of the
Cumberland. After being mustered
out ho returned to Greeno County and
shortly after entered the Albany (N.Y.)
Law School and graduated in May,
18G6, Returning to his homo again,
he took an activo part in the guberna
torial contest of that year, stumping
this county with good results to tho
cnuso. In the spring ot ll7, lie was
appointed by Chief Justico Chase, a
Itegister in Bankruptcy, for tho 24th
District, which position ho now holds.
With a record thus showing him to
have always been on tho right side, we
take the more pleasure in putting him
before tho peoplo ns a candidate for
higli honoi-4. 8.) fir ns mental acu
men, vim, and moral integrity is con
oerncd ho is the peer of any who ca:i
bo found in the ranks of tho opposition.
Of cours?, his 8yinpit!iici are in hear
ty accord with tho living principles of
tho Republican party embodied in the
Chicago platform, and in fierce antag
onism with tho Repudiation and Rov
olution dogmas of Democracy. Three
years of soldier lifo will add Jo his
favor among that class of our voters,
lie is a representative of tho Blue
Coats worthy of their ballots and of
all who sustained the causo for which
they fought. An eloquent speaker his
voice will bo heard throughout the
canvass by men of all parties who
clioos3 to hear, and they can judge
fairly between him and his principles
and those of his opponent. Although
every fair means will bo used to secure
votes he will conduct the canvass on
manly and courteous principles, and
from his popularity now established in
both parties, which will bo increased,
wo arj safe in predicting a considcra
b'.o reduction in the Democratic major
ity of Greene. Wo aro assured also
that the other counties of the District
will put forth their best efforts and
enlarge if possible upon their majori ¬
ties of 'GG.
ONCE MORE TO TUE BBEACII I
We may comparo the Republican
organization in this county to a battery
that once breached the enemy s works
and did good execution, but from dis
use has become dismantled and needs
e:nodelling and strengthening. The
first thing to be dono was to get the
guns in position and open fire, under
cover of which we might accomplish
this work. It has been done. This
week finds every piooa in position and
now we may go on with the remodoll-
miranu strengthen in". It is worse
than fdlcness, it is criminal ncgli
gencerto8it calmly down at this stage
ot the conflict and await the result of
the fire of our opponents. ' Work,
earned hard work, by every private,
every officer, is alone to savo our van
tago ground. In each township or
ganization must bo had if not already
attained. Every information in re
gard to the status of the party should
be furnished on enquiry to our Exec
utive Committees, and it can be acoom
plished by every man constituting
himself a committeo to enquire into
and look after tho interest of tbo party
in his own community.;-. Acquaint
yourselves, each with his neighbor's
politics, converse with them, if disposed
to reason, and have them sup
with a copy of tho Rkpuulioan or
other sound reading during tho cam
paign. Don't, becauso the skies are
bright at present, think they may not
soon be overclouded. An important
election is just at hand in our own
State and as "Pennsylvania goes so
goes the Union !" Tho 13th of Octo
ber must soo Democracy discoiufittcd
or an additional burden imposed upon
tho Republicans everywhere, to carry
through tho Presidential cauvass.
Tho pitiful majority of 022 votes
claimed by Democracy last year, lias
since been found fraudulent by investi
gating committees. By colonization
and false naturalization they eked out
this small preponderance in a vote of
over 500,000, the Republicans polling
10,000 less of tho 691,000 votes cast
in 'GO, and they only 25,000, our ac
tivity being 25 per cent, below par
and tlieir's 10. It is estimated that
G00,000 votes will bo polled this Fall
more than ever beforo in this Stalei
and colonization, aud coffee-colored
papers for aliens will be used by the
Democracy, yet if the Republicans aro
watchful they can carry the day by i
majority above 17,178 Geary's ma
jority of'GG. A changoof a very few
votes in each district may turn the
current against us. fhereioiv, unless
you want to bo caught up in "the

THE DEBT ANB IT Al I'HOIM.
Tho Democratic papers and orators
are very find of emphasizing the fact
thut tho United States have a great
debt, and that the peoplo aro heavily
taxed. They declare that when the
Democratic party controlled the Gov
ernment the public expenses were in
finitely smaller and taxes were prac
tically imperceptible.
Very well ; crantiiig that the debt is
large and the taxes tire heavy, why do
they not continue and tell us why
they are so? For tho same reason that
the criminal prefers nut to plead guil
ty. 1 ho debt is large and tho tuxes
aro heavy becauso the Duiuncritio par
ty, when it was constitutionally re
moved from power, rose in rebellion
at the South, remained as aparty hos
tile ut the North, and compelled the
Government to tight desperately for its
existence. An enormous war makes
an enormous debt. Those who caused
tho war created the debt. Who bemin
tho war? Was it Jetl'crson Davis, Wndo
Hampton, Robert Toombs, Rapluul
Seinmes, and tho other Southern
nmimm-iitin loaders who fired iinun
Fort Sumter, or was it Major Ander
son who defended it ?, If the people
had submitted to the cannon oi those
Democratic patriots and conservative
Irieiidsot the Constitution tlicro would
have been no debt and no taxation to
day and no country. The rebellion

the salvation of tho country from tho
rebellion of Democrats. If tho Dem
ocrats had acquiesced in tho constitu
tional result of nn election in which
they look part there would havo boon
no war. no debt, no increased taxation,
Tho debt is a Democratic debt, and
the taxes are sharp hints for a foiled
conspiracy of Democrats against the
Government.
And what is tho remedy for this
increased taxation which tho Demo
cratic platform proposes ? Swind
ling. First the Democratic leaders
take the money from our purses, and
then the honor from our name. As
wo have achieved a material victory
in tho war, they aro trying to prepare
for us a moral defeat in refusing to
nay the expenses of the war. And
this, which is tho pnrposo of those
whoso haughty hearts still swell in
the hatred of tho Union, and who dis
dain the Government when they do
not control it, is to be submitted, to
"the calm, quiet, thoughtful common
senso of the people." Who has been
in this country long enough to under
stand something of that common-sense
and of its conclusions, doubts what its
verdict will be upon a proposition ot
national mlaiuy ? Docs ho suppose
that a people whom the rebels could
not conquer they can dishonor ?

common-sense that baftted their at

At a recent election in Indiana in
the town of New Albany, there was a
gain of eight hundred votes for the
Republicans. It is accounted for by
the fact that Senator Hendricks had
