vri T/.MAN AGAIN :
The Radical Senatorial Conference for
this district, met at the Washington
Hotel, in this place, on Thursday last,
and on Saturday night, Hon. Alex.
Stutzman, of Somerset, was declared the
nominee. The conference had a stormy
as well as a lengthy session, and
when Fulton joined hands with Som
erset and nominated Stutzman, the
three Bedford conferees refused to en
dorse the nomination and withdrew.
Discharged that money was used to
influence the Fulton conferees. Not
being "in the ring," we cannot vouch
for the truth of this charge, but it is
made by some of the most reliable
men of the Radical jsirty who were on
the ground and who watched the ma
noeuvres of the wire-pullers. As for
ourselves, we preferred the nomina
tion of Mr. Stutzman for two reasons:
First, lie is not a strong candidate;
.secondly, be has frequently voted a
gainst his jiarty in the Senate, and, if
re-elected, will do so again under sim
ilar circumstances. The candidates
before the conference were Capt. G. 8.
Muliin, of Bedford, J. B.Cessna, Esq,,
of Fulton, and the nominee, Mr. Stutz
juan.
THE GREAT SWINDLE.
How the People are Cheated.
REPI'BEICAJfS AM* DEJKM'K.tfS A
UKt: THE VH TIHS.
A solemn and formal promise was
made by the Radical leaders, in the
Chicago Platform of last year, to their
followers arid the people of the United
States. It was a pledge that in all the
loyal States, the question of Suffrage
should remain under the control of the
of the people. We quote from the
Platform, word for word, a4 follows:
"The guaranty by Congress of equal
suffrage to all loyal men at the south
was demanded by every consideration
of public safety,* of gratitude and of
justice, and must i*e maintained; ichile
the question of Suffrage in nil the loyal
States property belongs to fne people of
those States.''
On the faith of this solemn avowal,
a majority of the people of the United
States voted for lien, tirant, and on
this formal assurance the Radicals were
permitted to retain the ascendancy in
Copgreps and the State Legislatures.
Thousands and thousands voted for
Grant and the Radical candidates for
Congress and the Legislature, who
v/ould not have touched thenri if they
had not l>een persuaded by this delib
erate promise in the Chicago Platform
that the Suffrage question would be al
lowed to remain in the hands of the
people. Mark, now, how the confi
ding voters were betrayed!
No sooner had Congress assembled,
after the Presidential election, than
the Radical leaders rushed through
that body the measure known as the
fifteenth Amendment , and sent it In
hot haste to the legislatures then in
session, with a view to its immediate
ratification! This indecent hurry was
intended to steal a march on the peo
ple, and if possible, to flank them, by
making the Amendment a part of the
Constitution by consent of three
fourthsof the legislatures, before the
!>eople could vote on it, or elect new
Legislatures with the Amendment an
issue. GOV. JOHN V*. GEARY
was an actor in this shameful intrigue,
and on the very day on which
he received the Amendment from the
hands of Congre-s, he sent it to the
Leg i-lata re with the following mess
age recommending its prompt ratifica
tion :
"EXECUTIVE CHAMBER, )
"HAUKI.SIH KG, March 8, 1869. J
" To the Senate ami House of lis preventa
tives of the Commonwealth of Pennsyl
vania :
GENTLEMEN :—I have tho honor to
transmit, for the consideration of the
General Assembly, a duly attested
copy of a concurrent resolution of tbe
Senate and House of Representatives
of the United States of America, enti
tled 'A resolution proposing an A
mendment of the Constitution of the
United States/ this day received from
the State Department, Washington, D.
C.
"I cordially approve this action of
the National Congress, and unhesita
tingly recommend the prompt ratifica
tion of the same by the legislature.
JOHN W. GEARY."
Remonstrances against the ratifica
tion of the Amendment poured in up
on the legislature, signed by tens of
thousands of citizens, many of whom
belonged to the Radical party, but
they were received by the Radical Sen
tors and Representatives with con
tempt and derision. Resolutions were
offered in both houses, to postpone
action on the Amendment until next
year, and to submit the question at the
October election. They were voted
down hy the Radical side. On March
11, iB6O, the resolution to ratify the
Amendment passed the State Senate
by the following vote :

Was there ever so treacherous, bold
and shameful a violation of its pledges
to the people committed by any polit
ical party ? After obtaining the elec
tion of their candidate fur President,

candidates for legislature, on the delib
erate and solemn assurance that "the
question of suffrage in all the loyal
States properly belongs to the people
astUforTi pit*
B &'J 3 *"T Y.i - **. *T.
of those States," the radical leaders in
Congress, the radical Governor Geary
and the radical State Legislature, con
spire together to deprive the people of
Pennsylvania of all power over this
question of suffrage which they have
solemnly declared "belongs to the peo
ple!" But a-if to glory in their infa
my, the radical politieiansassembled in
State Convention in Philadelphia on
the 23d of June last, re-nominated
John W. Geary for Governor and
placed, him on a platform containing
the following endorsement of his and
their attempted fraud:
Resolved, That we wholly approve
the principles and poTicy of the admin
istration of General Grant, and we
heartily endorse every sentiment con
tained in his inaugural address, and
especially do ice hereby ratify and ap
prove the late amendment to the Consti
tution of the I 'nited States propositi by
Congress known as the Fifteenth Amend
ment.
Such is the insult offered to the men
who were betrfcyed by the framers of
the Chicago Platform. Deliberately
cheated by their leaders, they are now
asked to endorse and sustain by their
votes the fraud perpetrated upon them.
JOHN W. GEARY and the RADI
CAL NOMINEES FOR THE LEGIS
LATURE are the representatives of
this Fifteenth Amendment swindle;
their broken pledges confront them like
accusing spirits: their efforts to stifle
the voice of the people rise up in judg
ment against them, their very bold
ness in asking the people whom they
have deceived to sustain them, con
demns them as lost to every sense of
decency or honor. LET US VOTE
DOWN THESE UN BLUSH INO
PLEDGE-BREAKERS!
THE STATE TAX HI'JIBJU
The Bedford county organ of the
"pasters and folders," says that "a
"Democratic administration in Bed
"ford county has been levying and col
lecting a tax on land for two or
"three years after the tax upon real cs
"tate has been abolished all over the
"State by a Republican administra
tion." If the Inquirer did not take
its readers for a pack of fools it would
not dare to insult them with such a
statement. No Stale Tax on real
estate has been levied or collected
for several years, but the state officials
at I iarrisburg annually demand large
sums from the county, which they as- ,
sess in spite of the repeal of the state
tax on real estate. In 1809, they de
manded £2,716,48 and this year $3,504.90!
These sums are paid out of the county
tux which under the law is laid on
real estate as well as on other proper
ty. Let any one who doubts this, go
to the Commissioners' office and ascer
tain the fact for himself. The truth
about this matter is, that the Radicals
in order to deceive the jieople, repeal
ed the direct tax on real estate, and
now use the money in the Sinking
Fund (which was created by a Demo
cratic administration for the extin
guishment of the State Debt) to pay
the expenses of the State Government,
and as those funds do not suffice,
they compel the several counties to
pay the deficit out of their own treas
uries. And this is the way they hum
bug the people. The State Govern
ment now costs double what it for
merly did; the state taxes annually
collected from the people amount to two
millions of dollars more than they did
under the last Democratic adminis
tration ; the sinking Fund is robbed in
order to pay the expense of the Radical
officials at ilarrisburg; and the county
commissioners of the several counties
without previous notice as to what a
mount will be required of them, are
forced to pay such sums, out of the
county funds, as those officials demand
of them. Verily it is high time that
the thieves and plunderers in the offi
ces at the State Capital be driven out of
power 1 Another three years of John
\V. Geary will sink the Sinking Fund
and swamp the State.
WHERE HAS IT GONE?
When the democrats went out of
power in 1860, the State debt was £17,-
840,125 72. Now ii is > $£3,286,946 13;
or only about four and a half millions
of dollars less than in 1860. During
the last eight years twenty-eight millions
of dollars have flowed into the State
Treasury, which, under the Sinking
Fund act passed by the democratic leg
islature of 1858, ought to have been aj -
plied to the payment of State debt. Be
sides this sum, which ought to have gone
into the Sinking Vand,seventeen millions
of taxes have l>een gathered into the
Treasury, making the revenues of the
State during the last eight years, up
wardsof fortyfiiefnUlion)-: of dollars!
With !ho immense amount of treas
ure, radical management of the State
finances has succeeded ir. paying oft'
hot the trifling sum of four and a half
m i llions of the State Debt! What has
been done with the remaining forty
millions !

Tight—money. Radical times.
SOI, 111 ENS* <-I.AiaCH.
The Radical party, ever since the
close of the war, have made the loudest
professions of friendship for "the sol
dier." They have flattered him with
soft words and promises of office, and
with Satanic impudence they have
tempted him with all the magnificence
and glory of worldly possessions to
fall down and worship them. They
wanted the soldier's vote, and they
did not scruple to try all the tempter's
arts in order to accomplish their pur
pose. But what is the upshot? Ex
cept w hen they needed a soldier to car-,
ry tfaem through a doubtful election,
as in the case oi Grant last year and in
that of Geary in IHGG, they have given
"the hoys in blue" the cold shoulder.
Since the election of Grant, hundreds
of soldiers, mauy of them disabled for
life, have been discarded by them and
the places they asked given to mousing
politicians who never saw a battle.—
The soldiers were good fellows enough
when their votes were wanted, but
when they asked to lie remembered in
the distribution of the offices, they
were kicked aside like a worn out
shoo.
The Bedford Inquirer, last week, in
an article recommending Capt. G. 8.
Mulliu for the Senatorial nomination,
used the following language:
"We elaim to lie the soldier's friends,
let a soldier's claims be recognized and
great strength will be added to our
ticket, and we will at the same time
send a man to the Senate of whom the
district will have cause to be proud."
But the "soldier's claims were not
"recognized." Htutzman, who spent
the years of the war in snug and .<*•-
cure retirement in the shades of Som
erset, who has already served four
years as Senator and grown fat on the
spoils of his party, was preferred to the
soldier candidate by the radituil poli
ticians of the district. As in the case
of the one-legged soldier, Capt. Stuck
ey, last year, the men who control Rad
ical nominations, kept the word of
promise to the ear to break it to the
hope, and Capt. Mulliu's "claims"
were overlooked.
Talk about Radical love for the sol
dier! Faugh! It almost makes one's
gorge rise at the disgusting pretence.
A few paltry dollars of a politician's
money go farther with the men who
peddle out the offices in the Radical
party, than all the empty sleeves and
legless pantaloons that are worn in the
Union. Let them say no more, for
shame's sake, about their friendship
for the soldier!
THE IN TEREST OS THESTATE DEBT.
During the years of democratic rule
in Pennsylvania, -ays the Patriot, the
Common wealth paid 4, 41 and a per
cent, interest on its loans. These rates
were maintained until ISG7, when, on
the recommendation of Gov. Geary
and State Treasurer Kemble, a new
loan was negotiated to replace the old,
and this new loan was made at G per
cent, interest. Now, there was no
necessity for this movement; none in
the world except that of the pockets of
the State Treasurer and other radieul
officials. The old loans could have
been continued, without any difficulty,
at the old rates of interest. But the
placing of the new loan offered an op
portunity to plunder the treasury, and
that was enough to recommend it to
those in power. It would enable the
State Treasurer to keep on hand a
large monthly balance, which he could
loan out to his favorites, to the incal
culable advantage of himself and his
friends. Some of the interest on this
heavy balance would be needed as a
corruption fund to elect United States
Senators and State Treasurers, and to
re-elect Gov. Geary. Hence the scheme
was put through ; twenty-three millions
were borrowed at six per cent., and at
a cost of placing the loan of $90,000.
We now have the effect of this ad
mirable stroke of radical financiering.
In 1867 the Commonwealth paid $94,-
003 more interest than in 1866, and in
18i8 it paid $17.2,554 more than in 1866.
I lerc is shown a loss to the people, by
the operation of this new radical loan,
of $266,618 in two years! A vote for
Geary and the radical candidates for
the legislature, is a vote to endorse
and encourage such frauds upon the
people.

SPECIAI^NOTICEH.
Sc h e!Te k'Pul ru on icB y r up,
Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills, will cure Co
n Liver Complaint, and Dyspepsia, if ta
ken according to directions. They are nil three
to be taken at the same time. Tbey cleanse the
stOmheh, relax the liver, and put it to work : then
the appetite hecotbee good theiood. digtu and
makes good blood; the patient Degins to grow in
flesb ; the diseased matter ripens in the lungs,
and he palr*t outgrows the disease and gets
well. This is the only way tooure consumption.
To these three medicines pr J- H Schenck, of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the
treatment of pulmonary Consumption. The Pul
monic Syrup ripens the morbid matter in the
lungs, nature throws it off by an easy expoetora
tion, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe, a
slight cough will throw it off, and the patient has
rest and the lungs begin to heal.
To do this, the Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake
i Pills must be freely used to cleanse the stomach
j and liver, so that the Pulmonic Syrup and the
| food will make good blood
Schenck's Mandrake Pill? act npon the liver,
; removing all obstructions, relax the ducts of the
I gall-bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver
j is soon relieved ; the stools will show w hat the
i Pills can do ; nothing has ever been invented ex
: eept calomel (a deadly poison which is very dan
i gerous to use unless with great care), that will
unlock the gall-bladder and starts the secretions
of the liver like Schenck's Mandrake Pills.
Liver Complaint is one of the most prominent
causes of Consumption.
Schenek'sSeaweed Tonic is a gentle stimulant
: and alterative, and the Alkali in the Seaweed,
which this preparation is made of, assists the
stomach to throw out the gastric juice to dissolve
the food with the Pulmonic Syrup, and it is made
into good blood without fermentation or souring
in the stoinaeh.
The great reason why physicians do not cure
consumption is, they try to do too much ; they
give medicine to stop the cough, to stop chills, to
stop night sweats, hectic fever, and by so doing
they derange the whole digestive powers, locking
up the secretions, and eventually the patient
sinks and dies.
Dr. Schenck, in his treatment, does not try to
stop a cough, night sweats, chills, or lever. Re
move the cause, and they will all stop of their
own accord No one can be cured of Consump
tion, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Cataarh, Can
ker, Uieerated Throat, unless the liver and stom
ach are made healthy.
If a person has Consumption, ofcourse the lung 3
in some way are diseased, either tubercles, ab
scesses, bronchial irritation, pleura adhesion, or
the lungs are a mass of inflammation and fast de
caying In such cases what must he done? It
is not only the lungs that are wasting, but it is
the whole hpdy. The stomach and liver have lost
their power to make blood out of food. Now the
only chance is to take Schenck s three medicines,
which will bring up a lone to the stomach, the
patient will begin to want food, it willdigesteasi
ly and make good blood : then the patient begins
to gain in flesh, and as soon as the body begins to
grow, the lungs commence to heal up, and the pa
tient gijta fleshy nui well. This 13 the only way
to cure consumption.
U T hen there is no lung disease, and onfy Liver
Complaint and Dyspepsia, Schenck's Seaweed
Tonic and Mandrake Piils are sufficient without
the Pulmonic Syrup. Take the Mandrake Pills
freely in all billious complaints, as they are per
fectly harmless
Dr. Schenck, who has enjoyed uninterrupted
health for many years past, and now weighs 225
pounds, was wasted away to a mere skeleton, in
the very last stage of Pulmonary Consumption,
his physicians having pronounced his case hope
less and abandoned him to his fate. He was cured
by the aforesaid medicines, and since his recovery
many thousands similarly afflicted have used Dr
Schenck's preparations with tho same remarkable
success. Full directions accompanying each,
make it not absolutely necessary to personally see
Dr. Schenck, unless the patients wish their luDgs
examined and for this purpose he is professional
ly at his Principal Office, Philadelphia, every
Saturday, where all let era for advice must be ad

Their own interests are at stake in
this matter. Everybody has suffered so much
from the accursed CREDIT SYSTEM, if system
it can bo called, that I intend to offer to every
body a panacea for the evil in the future.
On and after the first day of June, 1869. I will
sell goods EXCLUSIVELY FOR CASH OR PRO
DUCE. No doubt some customers may be lost to
me, but I flatter myself that it will bo only those
from whom I cannot collect present accounts.
All goods will be sold at about one-half the
profit now pa ; d by consumers. The people often
complain of Bedford prices being higher than else
where, and it is doubtless true, to some extent, for
the reason that good customers have had to pay
•forothers' goods with an additional profit on their
own.
Let an intelligent community sustain me in this
enterprise and they WILL SAVE FROM TEN
TO FIFTEEN PER CENT. ON EVERYTHING
THEY CONSUME.
