THE PEOPLE SPEAK!
THE CONGRESS ABSOLUTE

LARGE DF.MOfRATTf MAJORITY
L\:i\DIA.YA.
WEST VIRGINIA SOLID.
The elections in Ohio, Indiana,
lowa and West Virginia camy off
Taesday the Bth, and the results are
most gratifying to the Democrats
throughout. In Ohio the liepu bli
cans have been able t-o pull through
their state ticket by a majority of
perhaps less than 5000, but they lose
three congressmen, and thus the
substantial fruits of vi ctory are with
the Democrats. In the 4oth Con
gress the Republicans had 12 and the
Democrats 8 membets. In the 46th
Congress the Democrats will have 11
and the Republicans 9, from Ohio.
In Indiana we do much better,
carrying the state by an increased
majority and gain 2 Congressmen.
Even in Radical lowa, the Repub
lican majority Is greatly reduced
while West Virginia again returns
h her solid Democratic delegation. It
Iw is considered settled be yond perad
venturetbat the next House, as
well as the Senate will be Democra
tic. Thus for the first time in 18
years will the Democrats have a ma
jority in both houses of our National
Legislature.

ML WANTS THE OFFICE.
The following, from tho Clinton
Dt mocrM, goes to show how btidly
Mr. McCormick wants to be Judge
of this district. If any one thing in
the present campaign is li ved boyoiul
peradventnre, it is that the people of
the 25th Judicial District have, with
a voice practically unanimous, de
cided to retain Judge Mayer in of
fice, no matter who or how many
may desire the place. Everybody
seems to understand this fully, ex
cept Mr. McConnick and his lieu
tenant. C. G-. Furst, Esq. They pre
tend to believe that the district may
prefer McCormiek to Mayer, and
that too, in the face of facts and ;r
--j*erience that ought to convince any
one to the contrary, unless infatua
tion for office entirely obscure bis
vision and muddlcjiidgement.
Let Charley McConnick run for
Judge, by all means. The few scat
tering yotes he may get will convince
him. as nothing else will, that he is
not wanted just there:
A circular has been Issued by C. 8. Mc-
Cormiek, Esq.. abusive of JIUIRO Mayor. It
Is a rehash of tlini Issued by him on'the eve
of the primary election. That was the Joint
production of himself and C. G. Furst, Esq.
and this the woi kof the same hands. It is
a weak piece of patch work, stiunjr togeth
cr in ill-Joined parts, just as the two could
scrape up something that suited their de
mands. They couldn't get all they wanted,
but they took all they could get. It Is per
sonal abuse they are after, and seein to for
get that they ought to discuss the judicial
record of tho candidate. As to the figures
about County expenses, they prove nothing
against Judge Mayer, nor against the lVm
oeratlc party when the people understand
the matter, as we will endeavor to have
them before the canvass is over. The state
ment is garbled, one-sided, and prejudiced,
and proves only ( f it proves anything) that
Mr. McCormick held his pence till he had a
personal end to serve, and then ho spoke
am! assumes to uncover what lie had previ
ously tried to hide, part of the time he being
Attorney to the Commissioners and District
Attorney—an actor in the matter. McCor
miek wants to be Judge.

TO Tin: DEMOCRATIC VOTERS OR
CENTRE COUNTY.
We are In the midst of a most important
political contest. On the fifth >f November,
the people of Pennsylvania elect a Governor.
Lieutenant Governor, Secretary of Internal
Affairs, and Judgo of the Supreme Court,
whl'e In this district they elect a President
Judge, Congressman, and State Senator,
and In this county neatly every' county offic
er. The Assemblymen elected this year
will vote for a United states Senator, whlio
the State Senator will have a voice in the
•lection of two United States Senators.
For eighteen years the republican party
has had control of the executive department
of our state government, and for most of
that time, of both branches of the legisla
ture. During the last twelve years, the ex
travagance. profligacy or corruption of the
administration lias been most marked.
The appropriation and expenditure of pub
lic monav lias been double what it was un -
derany democratic administration during
an equal length of time. Monies belonging
to the "sink Wig ftind" which was sacredly
pledged to the payment of the public debt,
by virtue of a democratic amendment to
the constitution of t he state, have been mis
applied and squandered. Public offices have
been multiplied and the salaries emoluments
have Ken as largely increased as to be a
groat burden upon the people. The repub
lican partv for four years has persistently
refused to enact the neceesary laws to carry
Into effect the reforms of the constitution
of I<T3 ; but on the other hand have de vised
measures for evading Its salutory provi
sions.
The democratic party lias placal in nomi
nation men for tlie four state <>ffli*os to be
filled at the coining election, who are in all
respects deserving of the support of every
democrat. They are all experienced in pub
lie offices, honest. competent and faithful.
It should be the pleasure, as it is the duty
of every democrat to ?.* almislv w >rk for the
success of the ticket composed of such wor
tuv candidates.
For President Judge of the 2"Ut Judicial
District our party has nominated lion.
Charles A. Mayer of Clinton. who for tho
last ten vears. has discharged the duties of
that office. The great learning, ability, and
fl-ielitv. to law and justice, exhibited by
Judge" Mayer in the performance of the try.
ingilutiesof his position, have so won the
hearts of the people of this district, that
there is no organized opposition to Lis re
election. both the trpublican and national
parties, have declared in conference that it
was inexpedient to place in nominationi
candidate for iliat ouiee. and the only oj>-
position there is to the unanimous ••lection
of Judge Mayer arise-* from the self-imposed
candidacy of one whose desire for public
office has" made htm forget th<* pledge lie
gave when he asked th- support of the de
mocracy of Clinton County tliat lie was a
candidate "subject to democratic rules."
Let every honest voter in Centre County,
whether he be democrat, republican or na
tional vote for Judge Mayer and hereby as
sist in maintaining the dignity, purity, and
independence of the Judiciary
After a more than ordinarit) exciting
primary election the democracy of this
countv presented the name of flou. Andrew
G. Curtin for congress: and the choice of
the comity was subsequently ratified bv the
conference composed of representatives
from all the counties in the 20th Congressi
onal district. Governor Ourtin was fairly.
and legularly nominated xs the candidate of
the democracy of tills district, ami as such
should receive the vote of every democrat.
Individuals may have doubted the wisdom
or propriety of nominating one not born iu
our party, or they may have had preferenc
es for other candidates in or out of tlip coun
ty; but no good democrat will refuse to nub
rait to the action of the nominating assemb
lies. when the nomination is regularly ami
fairly made. Gov. Curtin hclu high and
responsible positions under the republican
partv. and during that time differed from
democrats to the policy which should con
trol our government. When the war was
over, slavery abolished,and the negro given
political rights, he differed from his pnrtv,
as to the policy of attempting to control
elections in the Southern States by the use
of military power, aud also as to its destruc
tive and profligate financial policy. The
old issues upon which he had differed from
us were settled forever, whether for good
or evil, and upon the new issues which the
progress of events were developing he
stood side by side with democrats Find
ing that his party was pursuing a pollcv
which he could not endorse, he voluntarily
resigned a high and lucrative office, that o'f
Minister to the Court of St. Petersburg and
returned home to take part in opposition to
the election of President Grant. His acces
sion to our ranks was considered so impor
tant at that time, that in order to give it a
proper recognition, Ex-Governor Bigler m
induced to resign his position upon our
state ticket as delegate at large to the con
stitutional convention, and Gov, Curtin was
placed on the ticket in his stead. Having
neen elected. Governor Curtin brought to
the service of our people his great learning,
knowledge, experience and capacity, and
labored for one whole year by the side of
such leading democrats as Judges J. S.
Black, and George W. Woodward and Sen
ator C. R. Buekalew. and after the conven
tion had completed its labors, lie advocat
ed the ratification of its work in speeches
made to the people of this and other coun
ties. During the political campaign of IS7.">
he advocated tiie election of Gov. Allen of
Ohio in opposition to President Haves, and
after the <)etober election took the stump in
Pennsylvania in support of our candidate
Hon. C. L. Pershing against Gov. Hartranft.
In 1X76 he labored with great zfeal and abili
ty for the success of our partv and its prin
eiples in Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania*
and after the election was selected by the'
Democratic National Committee, in connec
tion with Gov. Bigler of this state and lead
ing democrats from other states, to go to
Ixniisiana to try to prevent the great fraud
which has contemplated and subsequently
perpetrated upon the jieopleof this country.
Iu all of these positions, and at all times, he
has been faithful and true to the trusts and
confidence reposed in him; and at no time,
has lie hesitated or refused to perform any
labor, however great. i f it was deemed no- j
cessary to promote the success of onr policy
and the good of the people. He is now ia- 1
boring in distant parts of the state for the
success of our candidates and in support of
the principles of th? Pittsburg platform.
Under these circumstances, it would be un
grateful, unjust and unpatriotic for any
democrat to refuse to vote for liiin. It has
been just forty years since we had a demo
cratic congressman from Centre County,
and now when we have an opportunity of
electing one, County pride should make
every Centre County democrat wilting to
labor and vote for ins success.
it has been nearly fifty years since we
have had a democratic State Senator from
this county. We have now an opportunity
of electing one in the person of Cyrus T.
Alexander who has heretofore served our
people, well in the lowfer house. Mr. Alex
ander is so well known and so deservedly
popular, and possesses so eminent a de- !
gree the capacity, learning, experience and I
character which fit the position to ,
which he lias been nominated, that it Is !
hardly necessary to say more concerning
him. We have various local interests in i
our county, which should be fully and fairly 1
represented in the senate, which makes the j
election of a senator froui this county at this
lime very important, and ax dm republican
party has seen fit to make no nomination
aguinst Mr. Alexander, he should receive
• the almost unanimous vote of the county.
It Is important that the two candidates
for ass* tidily bo elected, not only to proper
ty represent the people of the county In the
general legislation of the state, but especial
fy because they have a voice in the election
of a senator t< represent this state in the
federal congress for six years from the 4th
of March next.
The candidates for the various countv
offices a v o all good men and true. Each one
was fairly nominated and 1* competent and
qualified for the office for which he is nam
ed. While there were other candidates be
fore the convention for most of tho offices
who wvre no doubt equally deserving and
equally qualified, yet the choiee of tho con
vention should be rati tied a! the polls with
out dissent. No good democrat will oppose
or semteh a candidate upon the ticket, be
cause he or some friend of his fulled to get a
place there.
I.et every democrat, therefore, labor zea
lously for the success of the wlmte ticket
until thepoilselo.se on tho evening of tire
fifth of November next, and then rejoice to
gether over the great victory which their
labor and fidelity lias assisted to achieve.
