ITDUE!
The Inquirer is badly cornered on the
subject of the Slate Debt, anil tries to
wriggle out of its sorry predicament in
the following style:
In December 18 D, just eight years la
ter, all of Republican rule, taking the
Gazette's own statement the debt was
. 3J,28tf,91U,13. But the Gazette i brgot ;
to make a very important deduction!
from this amount. At the time of this
report there were in the State Treasury
stocks, bonds and other funds'asassets,
making an offset from the public debt
to the amount of $10,795.353,G2 beside
81,012,925,37 in cash making an aggre
gate of $11,808,278,99 to be deducted
from the $33,280,940,13 and leaving as
Ibe actual debt to be provided for $21,-
178,007,11 against $11,457,107,50.
Is if ignorance, or malice, that is the
parent of this misrepresentation ? For
eharity'ssake, weconclude that it is the
former. The stocks, bonds, etc.,, a
no"nting to $10,795,353.02, were in the.
Treasury during Gov. Packer's adminis
tradon, and were placed there by the sale
of the public works. When Packer went
out of (Mice, (since which period the
Radicals have had the State govern
ment) the State Debt was $37,909,817.50.
This statement the Inquirer admits to
be true. If the $10,795,353.02 of bonds
and stocks in the Treasury (at that time
as well as now) be deducted, then the
amount of debt lett when the Demo
crats went out of power was only $27,-
171,(93.88. The Inquirer claims that
with the deduction of the above a
mount of bonds, stocks, and money in
the Treasury last December, the del t
at present is $21,478,007.11. According
to its own figures, then, in eight years
the Radicals have paid off but a little
over five and a half millions. But dur
ing those eight years upwards of twen
ty dee millions (including the receipts of
180$ nealy twenty eight milt ions) have
been paid In taxes into the State Troas
ry, which by law should have gone in
to the Sinking Fund for the payment
of the State Debt; a sum actually great
er than the whole debt! What became
of this i mil tense fund V Ay, there's the
rub! Let the Inquirer answer, if it
can.
WE want our political opponents to
understand that while we are willing to
meet them in fair and honest discussion
we cannot consent to gross personali
ities or low vulgarity. Let political
discussions be decent and dignified.—
Inquirer.
Whenever that miserable coinage of
the Radical slang-mint, the infamous
epithet "(bpjterhead is 1 lotted out of
the Inquirer's vocabulary, it may lay
claim to some decencj and dignity.
Until that is done, its reproof of its po
litical opponents will seem very much
like Satan reproving sin.
Let every Democrat see to it that he
is registered.
The drought is killing the forest
trees in the vicinity of Richmond.
A SOI.! I) FRO XT!
The Democrats (if Bedford county
have now an opportunity to increase
their majority largely and to assist in
winning a splendid victory for Packer,
Pershing anil the whole ticket. The
State nominations command the res
pect even of our political opponents,
and some of the most distinguished
men in the Radical parly have testified
to the worth and excellence of Asa
Packer and Cyrus L. IVrshlng.
The district ticket is one of the best
presented for the suffrages of the peo
ple for years. Hiram Findlay our
nominee for State Senator, is a man
who is admired by all who know him,
for Ids energy, uprightness and correct
business habits. He has liven a work
ing-man all the day*of his life, and his
success in business is due solely to his
good judgment, unflagging industry,
and excellent moral character. .Judge
Noble is too weiysnown to our people
to need any eulogy. He is a man who
can be trusted in any position. No
man fear- that it Joseph B. Noble is
e'ected, the vote of Bedford eounty
will b- east for any of the schemes of
the legislative "ring." ('apt. Sipe is,
a'so, a first rate man. lie comes lie
fore tiie people of Bedford county with
the highest recommendations from our
neighbors in Fuiton. He was a soldier
who served his country gallantly and
faithfully.
The County Ticket is composed of
the very best material. John P. Reed,
for Prothonotary, is a nomination t hat
challenges the approval of every right
thinking man. Mr. Reed is well ac
quainted with the duties of the otliee
for which he is a candidate. He has
hid experience in the performance of
those duties; he is one of the most cor
rect accountants and one of the best
counselors-at-law in the State. He has
-uffereil greatly from the persecutions of
political enemies, and the sympathy of
every Democrat in the county should
bo aroused in his behalf.
Wm. Keyser, the Democratic nom
inee for Sheriff, deserves especial men
tion. He is one of those men whose
lives ennoble the humble calling of the
laborer. Once a poor boy toiling for
his daily bread, by patient labor, strict
integrity and correct habits, he lias
won himself such a position in society
and in his party as to indicate him as a
proper person to fill the office for which
he is a candidate. The enemies of the
Democratic party hate him, of course.
John Cessna, the contemptible trickster
who now manipulates Radical politics
in this county, has a particular grudge
against him. In 1863, the immaculate
John desired the Democratic nomina
tion for State Senator. William Key
ser was one of the Conferees. Cessna ■
nntftWt buy him and therefore hates j
him. At present ho is busily engaged in
all sorts of schemes to injure Win.
K ;yser at the election. Who would
be the tool of John Cessna in his base
intrigues with the enemies of William
Koyser? Who would lend himself to
this despicable renegade to bean in
strument for his revenge on the man
who refused his bribe? Shame on the
Democrat who would take Cessna's
dagger to strike down William Key-j
ser!
The remainder of the County Ticket
is unexceptionable. We shall speak
of the gentlemen who com pose it more
fully hereafter. Evert/ man on the tick
et,, from Prothonotary to Auditor, teas
fairly nominated, after a free and full
and prolonged canvass. We are aware
that all sorts of tales have been set a
fioat in regard to the manner in which
the primary election was conducted.
But these are as false in regard to the
friends of one candidate as they are in
regard to those of the others. It was
a fair contest. The majority decided
who should be the candidates. Now,
let us act like men, like Democrats.
Let us pesenta solid front to the enemy
and march forward to victory!
IlOKftN'T WANT IT.
In our i--ue of August 20th, we sta
ted that upwards of twenty fee millions
of dollars have been gathered into the
State Treasury, since the Radicals came
into power, which under the Sinking
Fund Act, ought to have been applied
u> the payment of the State Debt, but
that only about four millions and a half
have been thus applied ; that the inter
est on the State loans ln:> been increas
ed, under deary's administration, from
to C per cent., that the Radical offi
cials at Ilarrisburg compel the county
commissioners of the several counties to
pay State Tax on Real estate out of the
County Levy, and that the people of
Pennsylvania pay upwards of Two Mil
lions more State Tax per annum, under
Radical rule than they did during Gov.
Packer's administration, tho last one
under Democratic auspices. Wo then
proposed that we would forfeit One
Hundred Dollars (o any man who
would show that we had made a sin
gle mis-statement in regard to those
matters, and called upon the Inquirer
to point out anything not strictly true
in our allegations. That paper has
failed to come to time. It cannot find
a single llaw in our statements. We
now call upon it to acknowledge the
truth of what wo alleged. If its editor
is as candid as lie claims to be digni
fied, lie is bound to make this admiss
ion. lie evidently doesn't want the

Pursuant to public notice, the Dem
ocrats and Conservatives of Bedford
county assembled in Mass Meeting, at
the Court House, on Mo r 'ay night
last. Notwithstanding the inclemency
of the weather, the Court House was
filled to overflowing with an atten
tive and enthusiastic audience. On
motion of E. F. Kerr, Esq., chairman
of the Democratic County Committee,
the following organization was effect
ed: President, J. Thomas Gephart, I
Esq.; Vice Presidents, John Boor, \V.
(). Leary, B. F. Edwards, J. D. Lucas,
H. P. Diehl, A. W. Swoope, .Jas. Cess

Peter F. Lehman, James Roades, Geo.

Aaron Reed, Hon. W. G. Eicholtz;
Secretaries, William Foster, D. A. T. .
Black, John 11. Bowser, Capt. S. B.
Tate, J. H. If. Sparks.
The object of the meeting was then ;
stated by B. F. Meyers, who introduc- |
el Capt. Geo. W. Skinner (late of the
77th P. V.) of Chanibersburg, as the
first speaker of the evening. Capt.
Skinner delivered an able and convin
cing address. He was followed by W.
S. Stenger, Esq., District Attorney of
Franklin county, in one of the most
eloquent and powerful speeches to
which we have ever listened. After
Mr. Stenger had concluded, It. Milton
Speer, Esq., of Huntingdon, was call
ed upon to address the meeting, Mr. :
Speer responded in a most effective ef
fort, a ldressing himself closely and in
an eminently logical manner to the
living issues of the day. The speak
ers were frequently interrupted with
rounds of applause.
J. M. Reynolds, Esq., then offered
the following resolutions, which were
unanimously adopted :
Resolved, by the Democratic Party
of Bedford County, in the language of
the platform adopted by the late .State
Convention,
1. That the federal government is
limited in power to the grants contain
ed in the Federal Constitution; that
the exercise of doubtful constitutional
powers is dangerous to the stability of
the government and the safety of the
people, and the democratic party will
never consent that the State of Penn
sylvania shall surrender her great right
of local self-government.
2. That the attempted ratification of
the proposed fifteenth amendment to
the Federal Constitution by the radi
cal members of the last legislature, and
their refusal to submit the same to a
vote of the people, was a deliberate
breach of their official duty and an
outrage upon every citizen of the State,
aud the resolution making such ratifi
i cation should be promptly repealed
and the amendment submitted to the
I people at the polk for acceptance or re
jection.
3. That reform in the administration
: of the federal and State governments,
I and in the management of their finan
' cial affairs is imperatively demanded.
1. That the movements now being
I made for the amelioration of the con
dition of the laboring man have our
most cordial co-operation.
•">. That the legislation of the iatc re
puhlican Congress "outside of the Con
stitution," the disregard of tho major
ity therein of the will of the people and
sanctity of the ballot box, in the exclu
j sion from their seats in Congress of
representatives clearly elected, the
establishment of mi li tary govern men ts
I in States in the Union and the o
verthrow of all civil governments
therein, are acts of tyranny and usur
' pation that tend directly to the de
' struction of all republican government
and the creation of the worst forms of
despotism.
<>. That our soldiers and sailors, who
carried the flag of our country to victo
ry must he gratefully remembered,
and all the guaranties given in their
favoi must he faithfully carried into
execution.
7. Equal rights and protection for
naturalized and native-born citizens
at home and abroad ; the assertion of
American nationality which shall
command the respect of foreign pow
ers and furnish an exampleandencour
agement to people struggling for na
tional integrity, constitutional liberty
and individual rights,
i 8. That the present internal revenue
and taxing system of the general gov
ernment is grossly unjust, and means
ought at once to be adopted to cause a
modification thereof.
Resolved. That we heartily endorse
the nominations of Hon. Asa Packer,
for Governor, and Hon. Cyrus L.
Pershing, for Supreme Judge, believ
ing them to be earnest friends of re
form, and recognizing in their public
record abundant evidence that they
possess the Jeffersonian qualifications,
honesty and capability.
Resolved, That the nomination of
Hiram Findlay for State Senator, and
that of Joseph B. Noble and Thomas
Sipe for Representatives, meet our
cordial approval; and we hereby pledge
the people of this Senatorial and Rep
resentative district, that should they
choose these gentlemen to represent
them in the legislature, they will se
cure three votes for the repeal of the
fraudulent ratification of the Fifteenth
Amendment, three votes for the re
duction of the expenses of the State
government, and three votes against
the "Ring" which robs the Treasury
and levies black mail on all who go to
llarrisburg for legislation.
Resolved , That the Democratic Coun
ty Ticket, composed as it is of the very
best men in the county, challenges and
will receive our hearty, united and en
thusiastic support.
Resolved, That the unlawful demands
of the Radical State officials, on the
Commissioners of the several counties,
for large sums of money, now that the
State Tax on Real Estate has been re
pealed, should be investigated by the
legislature and such legislation be had
as will protect the people against these
plunderers.
The meeting then adjourned with
three cheers for Packer, Pershing anil
the whole Democratic Ticket.

Our Radical friends do not take
kindly to the re-nomination of Sena
tor Stutzman. The fact isStutzy suits
the Democrats about as well as he does
the "Republicans." During the last
session of the legislature, he voted
with the Democrats on every test ques
tion, except the Fifteenth Amendment.
He is not our nominee; we are for Hi
ram Findlay; hut if the Radicals
choose to re-elect Stutzy, he is the man
whom we prefer to all other Radicals
in the district. He will always vote
with the Democrats when the argu
ment seems to he in their favor; ex
cept in case the repeal of the Fifteenth
Amendment should come before the
Senate, in which event the Radicals
may count on him as sure to stand by
the Amendment, no matter how strong
the argument against it.
Apropos of this subject, the Radical
Senatorial Conferees from this county,
published in the Bedford Inquirer, of
last week, the following manifesto :
A CARI).
To the Republicans of Bedford County :
At the election held on the 19th of
March last, the Republicans of Bed
ford County selected as their candidate
for the office of State Senator, G.
Shannon Muj.lin, of Harrison town
ship, and we were chosen as conferees
from the county of Bedford to meet
similar conferees from the coun
ties of Somerset and Fulton. The
; conference met at Bedford on Thurs
day the2fith day of August, and was
organized by the appointmentof Ham
ilton B. Barnes of Somerset county as
1 chairman, and Harry E Shafer of Ful
ton county as secretary, and continued
in session until the evening of Satur
: day the 28th of August. The confer
ees of Somerset county nominated A
lexander Stutzman ; the conferees of
Fulton nominated Jonathan B. Cess
na, and the conferees of Bedford
i county nominated G.Shannon Mullin.
A number of ballots were taken—the
conferees of each county generally
voting for the nominee of their coun
ty. On Saturday afternoon it became
manifest that two of the confer
ees from Fulton county would vote for
Alexander Stutzman and with the
I three votes from Somerset county
would give him the nomination. A
gaiustthis action we protested until
we found it was useless to do so long
er, and we then on Saturday evening
withdrew from the conference, refusing
to unite in presenting Mr. Stutzman to
the Republicans of this Senatorial Dis-
I trict as their candidate for the impor
tant office of State Senator. Mr. Stutz
man, as we are informed, received the
nomination of his county as a mere
compliment with no idea on the part of
the RepublicacsofSomersetcouuty that
he could or would obtain the nomina
tion of the District. For fouryearshe
| has been a mf tuber of the Senate of
Pennsylvania and in our opinion and in
! the opinion of* large number of his eon
i stitucnts shoved by his conduct in
{ llarrisburg that he ought not to he re
; elected. We vere satisfied from the
views expressed to us by a considerable
number of Republicans that, if nom
inated, he cou'd not be elected, and if
i he could, he eight not to be elected,
and we, thcrcfre, declined to assist in
placing his name before the people.
Believing that we have done right we
submit Our conduct to yon, confident
that you will approve it.
We made every effort to avoid all
difficulty by offering to agree to any
good man from Somerset county, but
the conferees of that county would
have no man but Stutzman, and by
some means they influenced two of the
conferees from Fulton eounty to go
with them.

SPECIAL NOTICES.
Bchenck 's Pulmonic Syrup,
Sex weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills, will cure Con
gumption, Liver Complaint, and Dyepejsia, if ta
ken according to directions They are all three
to bo taken at the same time. They cleanse the
stomach, relax the liver, and put it to work : then
the appotite becomes good ; the food digests and
makes good blood; the patient begins to grow in
flesh ; tne diseased matter ripens in the lungs,
and .be pstient outgrows the disease and gets
well. 1 This is the only way to cure consumption
To these three medicines Dr J. 11. Bchenck, 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 ex pec tor a
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 henl.
To do this, the Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake
Pills must be freely used to cleanse the stomach
and liver, so that the Pulmonic Syrup and the
food will make good blood
Schenck's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver,
removing all obstructions, relax the ducts of the
gall-bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver
is soon relieved; the stools will show what the
Pills can do ; nothing has ever been invented ex
cept calomel (a deadly poison which is very dan
gerous to use unless with great cure), that will
unlock the gall-bladder and starts the secretions |
of the liver like Schenck's Mandrake Piils.
Li ver Complaint is one of the most prominent
causes of Consumption.
Schenck's Seaweed 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 suuriug
in the stomach.
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. Scheuck, in his treatment, does not try to
| stop a cough, night sweats, chills, or tever. lie
i 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, Ulcerated Throat, unless the liver and stom
ach are made healthy.
If a person has Consumption, ofcourse the lungs
in some way are diseased, either tubercles, at
scesscs. bronchial irritation, pleura adhesion, or
the lungs are a mass of inflammation and fast de
caying. In such cases what must be done ? It
is not only the lungs that are wasting, but it is
the whole tydy. 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 tone to the stomach, the
patient will begin to want food, it willdigest easi
ly and make good blood ; then the patient begins
to gain in flesn, and as soon as the body begins to
grow, the lungs commence to bea! up, and the pa
tient gets fleshy and well. This is the only way
to cure consumption.
When there is no lung disease, and only Liver
Complaint and Dyspepsia, Schenck's Seaweed
Tonic and Mandrake Pills 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 eured
by the aforesaid medicines, and since his recovery

Their own interests are at stake in
thi a matter. Everybody has suffered so much
from the accursed CREDIT SYSTEM, if system
it can be 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 be only those
from whom I cannot collect presint 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 thi
enterprise and they WILL SAVE FROM TEN
TO FIFTEEN PER CENT. ON EVERYTHING
THEY CONSUME
