Curtin for Congress.
At last the long-lived conference of
(THE 20th congressional district came
to an end and resulted in the nomina
tion of two men for the same office.
HON. A. G. CURTIN; of Centre and J.
K. P. Hall of Elk, are the two candi
dates in the field, of whom of course
only one can be elected. But that
one certainly will be Ex-Gov. CURTIN.
After moving from one place to a
nother for several weeks, the confer
ees met at Bellefonte and there a- J
gain displayed their stubbornness as
they had done in foregoing sessions.
The great trouble was that the candi
dates of Union, Clinton, Mifflin and
Elk had chosen their own conferees
and they were bound to stick to their
man to the last. When the Centre
and Clearfield conferees saw that there
wonld be no end to the contemptible
farce, they withdrew and nominated
HON. A. G. CURTIN, thereby obeying
the instructions which they had re
ceived from the people of their respect
ive counties, by whom they were
chosen for the work. The balance
of the conference finally nominated J.
K. P. Hall, ot Elk. His chances for
election to congress are about as good
as Butler's for the presidency.
CURTIN is the candidate of the work
ingman and of the intelligent and im
partial citizen in both parties in the
district and he will be elected by an
overwhelming majority. And so it
should be. After the able and ardent
work he has done in congress against
monopolies and in the interest of la
bor, it is but natural that the people
should send him back to congress to
continue in his noble and truly unsel
fish course.
Centre and Clearfield without a
doubt will give CURTIN their unani
mous support, irrespective of party,
and that alone will elect him by about
5000 majority. On the other hand,
a large part of the labor vote of the
other four counties will be for CURTIN.
The great mistake which the con
ferees of the candidates from Union,
Clinton, Mifflin and Elk make in this
matter is that they ignore the wishes
of the greater bulk of democratic voters
and working men in the district who
will have their say at the polls by
re-electing CURTIN to the office to
which he is in all justice and honor
entitled. The best and most graceful
thing for Mr. Hall to do, under the
circumstances, would be to withdraw
from the contest and save himself the
chagrin of defeat by his distinguished
' popular brother-nominee.
THE Republican plurality claimed
in Ohio diminished so rapidly that the
much boasted victory turns out to be
in reality a defeat. The returns show
a loss from the normal Republican
I strength of 10,000. Considering the
desperate means resorted to in secur
ing this meagre result, the thousands,
of deputy marshals paid from tfce Fed
eral Treasury to do partisan work, the
enormous corruption fund of Gould
SAD other Blaine followers and mon
opolists spent in Ohio, Democrats can
eater the vital contest in November
with fair prospects to win.
Attention, Democrats J
As the time for the election ap
proaches we teel it our duty to urge
the Democracvof this end of the coun
ty not to be indifferent to the impor
tant duty of voting for good men for
the county ofliecs. Do not indulge in
trading nor permit others to trade,but
vote the whole Democratic ticket even
to tho last office. The Democratic
candidates for Assembly, Sheriff,
Trearurer, Register, Recorder, Pro
thonotary and last but not least Coun
ty Commissioners are eminently good
men and will surely make good offi
cials. They all have done good ser
vice in the past, politically as well as
officially, and good servants deserve
to be rewarded. Let us show our ap
preciation of their past labors by giv
ing them our strong and undivided
support. Remember our votes next
Tuesday a week should be cast for
Rhone and Woodwsvrd,Walker, Smith,
McClain, Bible,Brett,Wolf and Driest,
and no oth?rs.
MR. J. C. SMITH, of Lewisburg.one
of the Union county congressional
conferees, gave us a short call, with
the object of enlisting our services for
Mr. Hall, tho other nominee for Con
giess. But we were compelled to de
cline his kind invitation, for we were
for Curtin, are for Curtiu, and will be
for Curtin Jirst, last and all the time.
MORE SOAP. — The delinquent gov
ernment clerks received another hard
squeeze to come down with the 'rocks'
to carry on the campaign of the Re
publicans. It must be expensive to
be a Republican office holder in these
times.
THE republican plurality of 10,000
in Ohio, balanced by a democratic ma
jority of nearly that much in West
Virginia leaves not the ghost of a
chance for Blaine in November. Like
the Philadelphia Times has it, "We
think Blaine is beaten |"
NEWSPAPER men are blamed for be
ing experts in lying. Guess Blaine
must have graduated in the business
when he edited the Kennebec Journal,
and he hasn't forgotten that branch of
the art either.
A crank named Samuel Boone, of El
mira, who has been unsuccessfully so
liciting a pardon for his brother-in-law,
who is consigned in the Auburn prison
for shooting a man in Chemung co unty
a year ago assaulted Governor Cleve
land last Monday and attempted to
pummel him. He failed in his efforts
and is now landed in jail and held lor
trial.
Curtin's Enthusiastic Suppovteis.
Special Dispatch to the TIMES
CLEARFIELD, October 18.—A large
and enthusiastic meeting of the citizens
of Clearfield was held in the Court
House last evening and many more
came than the building would hold.
Colonel Barrett made a statement to
the meeting detailing the action of the
conference and of the conferrees of
Clearfield county. A resolution was
unanimously adopted, amid most in
tense excitement, declaring Governor
Curtin the democratic nominee of the
Twentieth Congressional district.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 20 1884.
The exceedingly slim majority in R
publican Ohio, which is so satisfying to
the Republican heart, is simply the
foreboding of an utter rout of that par
ty in New York in November. While
it demonstrates to those who desire a
change, the desperation of the men who
would perpetuate a reign of corruption,
it will intensify the struggle in New
York and sweep the state like a whirl
wind for Democracy and Reform.
Such a shaking up as the Treasury
leeches in Washington haye had during
the past three days has never been ex
perienced in our political history, be
cause the more than sixty thousand of
these fellows feel morally certain that
after the 4th of March next the places
that know them now will know them
no more forever. The aggressive cam
paign which Blaine and his crowd were
to prosecute, has been transformed into
one so exceedingly offensive that the
defense has about relinqulshed the fight
and given up. The demonstration by
the business men of the great city of
New York on Wednesday night last
shows that in this tribute to Governor
Cleveland there is a determination to
overthrow the corrupt satrapy that the
office-holding legion want to continue
in control of the Government at Wash
ington.
The campaign orators of the Republi
can party are showing that Cleveland's
election is impossible, even should he
carry New York with the Southern elec
toral vote. Well, nobody that I know
of has attempled to prove that 189 yotes
were sufficient for an election, but we
do insist that Governor Cleveland, be
sides New York, will have the fifteen
votes of Indiana,the nine votes of New
Jersey, the six votes of Connecticut to
top out his electoral pyramid, to say
nothing of the possibilities in Califor
nia, in Wisconsin and Nevada, which
will give him enough, with forty to
spare. And the prospects are most
flattering that just this state of things
is going to transpire on the 4th of No
vember. IPHONO.
To the Democracy of Clearfield
and Centre Counties
Owing to the peculiar political situa
tion in this Congressional District, we
deem it but fair to you, and to our
selves as tho Representatives of the
Democracy of Centre and Clearfield
counties, to make a statement of the
condition of affairs as we found them
in this District, and to render to you
an account of our stewardship.
The undersigned were appointed by
the County Conventions of Clearfield
and Centre, tho representative bodies
of the great Democratic party of said
counties, as conferees, to represent our
respective counties in the Democratic
Congressional Conference of the
Twentieth District of Pennsylvania,
and instructed to use all honorable
means to secure the re-nomination of
ex Gov. CURTIN, our present distin
guished and efficient member.--That
we met the Conferees of Clinton, Elk,
Union, and Miffiin counties in Lock
Haven on the 2f>th of September,where
an organisation was effected.—That a
motion was there made to go Into se
cret session in one of the small rooms
in the Court House. Your Conferees
remembering the odium attached to
the Star Chamber proceedings of the
last Senatorial conference, and that in
nocent men of our counties were there
smirched, refused to go into secret con
clave,and demanded an open conference.
—That we were voted down,the confer
ees of the other four counties adjourned
to the Court House, where, sfter some
deliberation the resolution was recindtd.
On the following day the full confer
ence met in the Democratic Club ltoom
Your conferees were there met by a
delegation from the miners and work
ing men of Hontzdale, Woodward
township and vicinity, who presented
their credentials and a copy of tho pro
ceedings of their convention and the
following resolution, viz:
1. Resolved , That we, the miners
and working men of Iloutzdale, Wood
ward township and vicinity, will sup
port no man for office who is not
known to be friendly to the interests
of the working men, and who will not
support such measures as beneficially
effect the laborer's interests.
2, Resolved , That whereas HON. A.
G. CURTIN, our present representative
in Congress from this Congressional
District, has shown himself by his
votes, speeches and course in Congress
during thepast four years to be thesin
cere and earnest friend ot the working
man, that we heaitily endorse him and
respectfully demand his return to Con
gress, and to that end we will vote and
work for him to the exclusion of any oth
er nominee.
3. Resolved , That a copy of these
resolutions he presented to the Demo
cratic Congressional Conference, and
that in the event of their failing to
nomiuate HON. A. G. CURTIS then to
present the same to the Republican
Congressional Conference.
You will see by the nbove resolu
tion the determination of the miners
and working men to vote for ex Gov.
CURTIN to the exclusion of any other
nominee, The laboring vote of this
district amounts to between six and
eight thousand votes.—That to make a
nomination antagonistic to the spirit of
these resolutions would be suicidal to
our party. We adjourned from Lock
Haven to St. Maiy's where delegates
from the Miners nnd Laborers' Amal
gamated Association appeared and pre
sented a copy of the proceedings of
their convention held at Duli >is, and a
resolution demanding there-nomination
of ex-Gov. CURTIN. TO both of thesf
appeals from organized labor the con ■
ferees of Elk, Clinton, Union and Miff
lin turned a deaf ear.
It were worse than useless to follow
the conference to the different places
of meetings. Sullice it to say that
throughout the entire district your con
ferees found but one sentiment. We
have presented every phase of the case
to the other conferees, hoping that they
might resspect the wishes of the people
of this district. Th*y failed to do so.
At Bellefonte resolutions were present
ed by the Cleveland and Hendricks
Clubs of Osceola and lienovo, asking
the re nomination of ex-Gov. CURTIN,
with the same effect. He:e it I ecame
patent to all that another adjournment
would be forced and valuable time flit
tered away, and the party sent to the
polls in November with no candidate.
The iron hand o fnecessity was laid on
your conferees.a Congressman at stake,
and disorganization and disintegration
staring us in the face. In view of all
these facts, and many others which
could be enumerated, there was but
one resort for us representatives of the
( people of this district, viz: to with
draw from the conference, nominate
Gov. CURTIN, aud submit the case to
the voters at the polls. This your con
ferees have done.
The result of it all i 3 that your con
ferees, representing a majority of the
Democratic voters, have made a nom
ination that voioes the sentiment of the
Democratic masses of the district.
The conferees of Clinton, Elk, Union
and Mifflin, representing a minority of
the Democratic voters, bolted that
nomination and put in the field Mr.
Ilall of Elk. Your conferees have no
words of censure for their fellow-con
ferees from the other counties. We re
cognize the delicate position in which
they were placed. Ileld firmly in the
grasp of local candidates, who.se single
idea was the defeat of ex-Gov. CUR
TIN, a ainseof honor compelled them
to obey the behests of their candidates.
We were treated with uniform courtesy
by them, and by the people of all the
counties in which our conference met,
and we sincerely regret that anything
of an unpleasant nature should have
occured here. But we are not repson
sible for what we could not preyeut.
With you rests the final result.

An Address to the Public by tne
National Democratic Com
mittee.
THE RESULTS OF OCTOBER.
The Record of the Republican Can
didate Severely Handled—The
Outlook for November.
j The following address has been issued
I from the headquarters of the National
Democratic State Committee;
To the People of the United Skitrs :
Tho result of tlie elections on Tips
day last in tho States of Ohio and West
Virginia is before yon. Ohio chose
Republican electors in 1808, 1872,1870
and 1880. West Virginia chose Repub
lican Presidential electors in 1870 and
1880. Garfield obtained a plurality in
Ohio in 1880 of 34 227 yotes The Re
publican candidate in tho late election
for Secretary of State was a irallant sol
dier and a reputable man. The vote of
the Republican party in that election
was broken down bv the weight of Mr.
Blaine, a factional seeker after the
Presidency. The people then elected a
Democratic majority of tho Congress
ional delegation of the State. We may
confidently expect a majority iu Ohio
for Cleveland and Hendricks in Novem.
ber.
West Virginia lias by Its splendid
and decisive majority for a Democratic
Governor sit the October election al
ready declared its purpose to give its
electoral vote for our candidates in No
vember.
HALF A MILLION USED IN OHIO.
The Blaine managers employed ex
traordinary methods in both States.
They expended not less than five hun
dred thousand dollars iu Ohio and more
than one hundred thousand dollars iu
West Virginia in their political work.
They did not use money only. They
called from every State the office-hold
ers best lilted to do the woik at which
they were put. They crowded these
two States with sucn men. They em
ployed in political jobs the men engag
ed In postal aeivice of tho United
Stales. They left the veterans who
had saved the life of the nation without
the pay to which they were entitled,
under the pretence ol having an iusuffi
cicnt clerical force MI the Pension Bu
reau, and then used the Commissioner
of'Peusions and a great number of his
clerks as part of their political machin
ery in the late elections in Ohio and
West Virginia. It has been openly
charged, without denial, that the pay
ment of veterans by the Commission of
Pensions has been delayed by him with
the purpose of coercing them to vote
for Mr. Blaine. These abuses of politi
cal power have lieen committed under
the overlooking eye of Mr. Blaine and
with his full sanction. They show the
manner in which, if he were elected,
public offices would lie subordinated to
iiis personal service and the bounty of
the country be made the means of ad
vancing his personal interests. They
made the Marshals of the United States
and their deputies, who ought to be the
guardians of the rhhts of every citizen
of the United States, a part of their
machine force. They armed them and
incited them to violence and outrage.
They expect to pay for the weapons
and services of these nimi out of the
Treasury of the United Stales. They
made Mr. B iaine one of their country
and ward workers in Ohio and West
Virginia,and lie entered with zest upon
Hie familiar duties. They devised,wit.li
his knowledge, methods of compelling
workmen to vote as their employers
dictated They kept him in daily asso
ciation with the worst elements of
their political organization. They made
him their conusellorin every disreputa
ble plan which they devised to promote
his success. lie could not have been a
stranger to theii purposes to make
gains in Cincinnati at the election on
Tuesday last by using armed Deputy
Marshals and armed negroes to drive
voters from the polls. The methods of
their campaign in Ohio and West Vir
ginia and the share of their candidate
in those methods have added to the op
probrium already resting upon his name
and have assured his defeat at the gen
eral election in November.
ATTACKING BLAINE'S RECORD.
Mr. Blaine has been a member of tin
House of Representatives, a Senator in
Congress and a Secretary of State of t he
United States. lie has been accused of
corruptly using his influence as Speak
eratid its a member of Hie House of
Representatives for his individual prof
it. This misconduct has been proved
by his own letters. These have con
fronted him wherever he has gone. He
has attempted no explanation. The
phrases of these letters are so well
known that they are by-words on the
streets and jests upon the stage. A
Speaker of the house of Representa
tives—a member of the House—who
would barter his influence for money or
property might avail himself of the
larger opportunities which the office
and powers of a President afford.
These are not words dictated by par
ty rancor. They sum up the judgment
of that independent press which is and
always will remain the bulwark of good
and constitutional government. They
express the convictions of the leading
Republican journals and the belief of
those distinguished Republican states
men and citizens whose love of country
has forced them to declare that the
nomination of _l/r. Blaine was one not
fit to be made.
This is reason for our confidence that
we will achieve a victory in November.
The arm/of office-holders engaged for
a month past in the business of mani
pulating votes in Ohio and West Vir
ginia must now disband. Each man of
the number must go to bis own place.
Th i Commissioner of Pension and his
bureau clerks cannot bt concentrated
for political uses, in tho November
elections. When thev are acting indi
vidually in their seveial States they
will be unable to do mischief. The
Marshals of the United States, by rea
son of the powers which they exercise,
may again do harm iti Novemer. They
ought to understand that for what they
have done and for what they may do
they will be hereafter held to the strict
est account by a justly indignant peo
ple. The hopes of reward and the prom
ises of indemnity which have been held
out to thein will not avail them in the
days which are close at hand.
BLAINE AND THE CORPORATIONS.
The country is fully aroused. It is
alarmed by the corrupt influences sur
rounding Mr.Blaine and will reject him
aj President. Mr. Blaine has grown
rich. Tho men around him have grown
rich. The speculators whom he has
aided by framing laws to suit them are
rich. The corporations which he has
helped have monopolized the public
lands. But trade is stagnant. The
commerce of the country has decayed.
Mills are standing id'e. Where wages
have not been stopped they have been
reduced. Mechanics and laborers go
about seeking employment in vain. Wo
men and children are beginning to
want bread,and yet the farmer can find
no profitable market for the grain.
These circumstances afford conclusive
proof that a few interests have been
cared for by the Republican managers
at the expense of the interests of the
great body of the people.
' The creation in this favorite land of
such extremes of wealth and poverty
and the evil days which have overtaken
all who are engaged in labor are not
your fault. It has been and is the
fault of those selfish men who use the
powers which you gave them for their
own advantage, leaving you to fare as
best you can. It is for you to determ
ine whether these eyils shall continue
and increase or diminish and end in a
general prosperity shared in by all a-
Uke,
ORGANIZATION NEC ESS AIIY.
You have a right to expect t hat your
party leaders, to whom jou have given
support and accorded honors in past
years, will lay aside all differences and
establish a lasting claim on your grati
tude by making common cause in your
supreme efforts to obtain the blessings
of a good government. You will not
be disappointed.
Remember that victory in November
over the unscrupulous men who are
now endeavoring to seize the Presiden
cy can only be secured oy your com
plete organization. When men are of
one mind and want to impress their
opinion upon the community in which
they live they must stand together and
work together. The highest and best,
organization of which men are capable
is that in which every man wants to do
that part of the common work which
he can do and does it with all his might.
Your organization ought to be of such
nature.and if they are.Governor Cleve
land will he elected in November by an
unparalleled majority. •
