Ws publish a communication this week
from"Oneof the People".in which the pro
posedehange from the delegate to the popu
lar vote system is attacked• with, a good deal
of vim. It will be seen that this movement
le characterized a "achemeOf the large boria.
oughs to defraud the townships," and-also that
,we ate referred to as "championing" the
g'rand. We disclaim the motive here imputed
to es, and state againwhat we have repeated
ly:asserted heretofore, that Our only purpose
hi' urging the fuloptiortof the popular vote
system. in this county is a desire to see har
mony and justice prevail in the Republica
sank% and to contribute what we can toward
cementing our party together. nista are the
considinstions that influence us in matuipion-
Ing" the popular vote system, and tany others
alai are attributed to us are unfotus46l4lld
gratuitous. • Another fact deserves notice
fine we proceed to answer 'the objections of 1
"One of the People" to the popular vote sys
tern. Throughout his whole communication
a disposition Is shown , to arouse • the pred,ll2..
dices of the country districts against the bor
oughs, by making the former believe that the
latter are attempting to wrest political power
from their hands. This istvrong, to say this
least of it. It should be the aim of all good
Republicans to fitster kind feelings between'
the memberS of the party everywhere, but the
reverse - seems to be the objective point in this
Instance: Nor is It proper to say that this
movement in favor of the adoption of the
popular vote system comes from the borrughs,
'for the purpose above referred to, or for any
other. It does not come from the boroughs
at all. It is true the resotutior, offered in our
last county convection requiring the chair
man of the county committqp to submit the
question to a vote of the Republicans, was
read by a delegate' fromo neighboring town,
but it was sustained, %our recoliection serves
us, by every diptry !strict, in. the county,
and now its most earnest advocates are those
who - live in the "agricultural districts."—
Whether Justly or unjustly they have conclud
ed that a few borough politicians have been
able for•solue time past to so control delegates
and "set up" things generally as to giie nom.
!nations to just such individuals as they favor
ed, and to defeat those, with whom they were
not on the best' of terms. To get rid of the
influence of these , borough politicians in this
particular is why, they favor a change from
the delegate to the popular vote plan at the
present time. Our correspOndent though
quite voluminous, raises but four or five
points that require to be examined into. They
are substantially as follows:
Ist. Under the delegate system "the pow
er now is with the country, where it should
be."
2d. The popular vote system would induce
i the boroughs to unite their rote on their own
men, awl thus give'the nominatious to them
without fail.
3d. The boroughs can and do attend the
l'primary meetings; the townships cannot con
veniently, and do not attend them.
4th. / The primary meetings tinder the pro
posed system are held by men who are not
acting under oath "and bad men may and
probably will control - the ballot-boxes and
stuff them at pleasure.
' sth. The system has not worked well any
where, and particularly hi' this the case in
Crawford county.
We never have, and do not now propose to
array ourself against the Republicans of
/the country districts. On the contrary we
av i ish them to hold all the political power that
jostlytielongs to them, and in addition, we
Wish them to exercise it. And a few brief
Oords just here will serve to show them that
the popular vote system will inerease and not
decrease their politidd power. Look at the
facts. Under our delegate system the country
districts arc allowed 69 representatives in our
county Conventions, while the boroughs ; are
permitted to send 34. The agricultural dis
tricts, it will bo seen, have just double the
strength of the boroughs. Now laiw would
it be if the popular (veto system was adopted'?
Last fall 2,800 Republican votes were east lu
the county. About 2100 of these were polled
in the country districts, and only about 700 in
the boroughs! thus showing that the popular
vote plan will make the country districts
three times as qtrong as the boroughs, while
the present system gives them only double their
strength. Our plan then confers one-third
more power upon the country Republicans
than does the system advocated by our corres
pondent.
-
The idea that the popular vote system will
cause the Republicans of the respective bor
oughs to unite upon one of their own number
and against a candidate in a rural district, is
eictretuely far-fetched,and is neither supported
by past experienceror present knowledge, As
proof of this we may refer to the canvass in
this borough last year for the Legislature.--
One of the prominent candidates lived in &li
ver. Re was a gentleinan against whom
nothing could be said personally, yet the Bor
ough of Beaver instructed for another worthy
gentleman who lived some twenty miles dis
tant in the country ! The yerir preceding
three candidates were announced fur Register
b Recorder. Two of these lived In the coun
try depicts, and the third resided in this bor
ough. • Alt were competent, and all had good
characters, yet the Beaver delegates were cir
dered to vote for both of the rural candidates
before going for our own. In the country ac
tion like this is very rare, and we can recall
no instance of a township going against one
of Its own citizens When he Von, a good char
acter and was qualified to fill the place for
Which ho was a candidate. The past there
fore gives "Oife of the People" no warrant for
saying that the Republicans of Beriver will
band together and support one of their num
ber in preference to a country candidate just
because one is a near neighbor and the other
is not. But again: Every person knows
that each borough has lir little clique of poli
ticians.
Most of these are aspirants. They
are all looking ahead for something for them
selves. They altwto "kill 'each other off," and
In nine cases.out of ten, when not candidates
themselves, they "move heaven and earth" tai
throw the nominations kist as far from them'
and their boroughs as they possibly can.—
They do this with a view' of improving their
own chances the next"heat." With them the'
little game of politicalt"throat cutting" is
never suspended. The assertion that the bor
oughs will combine to:defeat, rural candidates
fa more erroneousstill. Evetyjierson knows
that the politicians of New Brighton and Bea
ver have but little love for each other. ,The
sainc may be said of the leading partisans in
all Of the boroughs ofthe county. They have
their own individual axes to grind, and they
never have arid they never will help each
other to grind them. We will dismiss this
part of our subject then b# stating that we
will as soon look for"water to run up bill,
for trees to grow with leaves underground
and roots alloy, for the moon to give heat
e k ed the sun to lase its fire" as to look for Bea
ter and New Brighton or New Brighton and
Rochester, creep 4'04 leading boroughs to
unite for the purpose of I defeating u country
candidate, just because he 'happens to live out
side of a borough limit! But suppose for ar
gument's sake we admit thatthey might band
together for the purpose feared to: "One of
the People?' What then? Taking last fah's
Republican-vote ai the basis, the boroughs,
to; dolheir utmost, could only poll 700' votes
for their candidate, while the townships could
cast 2100 for theirs. If with this disparity of
*tubers In their favor, the agricultUral &a
trias would be beaten by the boroughs, we
have only to say they defierved defeat; and

Elates.
We stated two weeks ago that wherever
tried the popular vote system vierked well and
that no county of which waled any know]-
ledge ever went back to the delegate system
again after trying it. Our correspondent on
the other hand asserts that IL works badly
everywhere, but singularly enough be fails
to designate any particular county save Craw
, ford, and as to that one ho is mistaken, for on-
I ly two weeks ago the organstethe Republican
party in that county- mader_use of this lan
guage:
There is not, and it Is not likely that there
will be any wrangling about the nominations,
or any reluctance in I giving the nominees a
cordial support.
This Is a great merit in our system of mak
ing nominations. The voice of thepeople is
the decisive voice, and leaves nothing to he
said afterward. It is gratifying to us' to ace
that many cqunttes in the State have adopted
the "Crawford County System.' We can
only reiterate that we consider it the only
proper method of nominating candidates, and
those counties that try it will never go back
to the old system. ' •
' If the "Crawford County System" does not
give satisfaction at home, it is remarkably
strange that it is continued from year to year
and, that the editor of our party paper there
knows of no dissatisfaction with It and claims
it to be "the only proper method of nominating
candidates.",
'Uneasiness is expressed by our correspond
ent In case of the adoption of the popular vote
system, that "St. Clair borough with Its four
votes, Marion with nine, Phillipsburgh with
ten, Freedom district with six," !could find no
persons to bring in the vote on tbesucceeding
Monday. This might berso, but we do not

and that it hopes e to o'btain more power by its
adoption. As be , has put us in a false posi

a "scheme of the large boroughs to defraud

in our course by a desire to abet the "clique"
we will put him in his true position 14 in

one of the cleverest and best citizens of Bea
ver ! And if anybody ever succeeds in find
ing the "Courthouse clique," they have our
word for it that they need go no' further to
touch elbows With" One of the P-Apple!" With
this information before them our rural friends
may judge of the rectitude of his and our in
tentions, in discussing the merits and de
merits of the popular vote system.

Too Much of It.
Tux leading Democratic 'organ—the paper
boasting the largest circulation North and
South—is disgusting many Southern readers
by Its 'baseness of sentiments. The Demo

take a wholesome hint (tom' the follow tug ex

It is about ten years slice this - change wee

their friends have generally led in the move•

the delegates from the leading boroughs of the
ootentv. Heretofore - the country districts have
invariably opposed the scheme designed to
deprive them of their power. But. it is now
I feared that the arts and Wilier, the cajoling and
1 threats, of borough politicians hare so intlu
-1 eneed and alarmed Many. who have stood firm
againstthe dangerous innovation, that they
will row yield, and thus a majority. may be
secured in favor of the boroughs.' .
To the doubtflil, wavering and unthinking
country Republica* I desire to present a few
reasons why they should Oppose a change.—
I There are now . thirty-sic action districts In
the county, represented in the county Conven
tion by one htindred and three delegates. Of
this number twentsothree are country dis
tricts and thirteen-boroughs. Of the thirteen,
boroughs Baden, St..Olare, New Galilee, Phil.'
lipsburgh and Freedorn,Stiould more proper
ly be classed with the country :districts, be
cause their locatiorn surroundings andAsym
pathres are more with the country than with
the boroughs. This would leave eight bor
oughs
and twenty-eight townships (New i
Brighton we count now as three boroughs, I
there being three election districts.) Toe
1 townships, then, according to .my classifies
-1 tion, have in the county convention seventy-'
seven delegates and the boroughs twenty-six.
The power now is with the country, where
it should be. The put has demonstrated that
I virtue and patriotism are nurtured and pre
served best in the agricultural districts. Eng
lish history informs us that the corruptions
of the boroughs of Great.Brittain more than
I once threatened the overthrow of the govern
ment, and nothing but , the integrity oof the
land owners prevented. it. There is always a
tendency where men are congregated together
as in boroughs, to absorb the political power
of the surrounding community. ThrOwn
more frequently together men become better
acquainted with each other, and enter into
each others schemes more readily. If one of
their number desires a nomination for some
office the citizens of his borough, who are all
his near neighbors, feel more interest in his
success then men_being in a township do in
one of the citizens of the township, because in
a township, living milei apart and scarcely
ever thrown together,' it frequently happens
good men are candidates for office who are not
personally acquainted with half the citizens of
, their own township. . .
Any one who has paid any attention to this
matter willadmit that now in this county, po
litical power and influence is centered in the
: boroughs. ', Let two tanditistersof equal pre
, tensions, one residing in the boroughs of Bea
ver, New Brighton or Rochester, and the other
' in Hantiver Darli t ngton pr North Sewickley

there is riot an in ''' nt i ltepubilean ce in the
° ar o
county, who will net mit the chances are
' largely. in favor of the candidate of the boi
-1 °ugh. And why ? Because' the candidate of
1 the- borough has the sympathy and assistance'
1 of all his neighbors, who labor (or his success',
' while the country candidate is - ', allowed to do
1 his own work, his neighbors not having either
1 time Or opportunity to aid hith.
The truth of our, postion is so apparent I
will devote no more space in illustrating it.
If this is so now whop three-fourths of the
power;s with the country, how will it he when
the country is shorn of its power ? But I have
not yet shown that the proposed change will
deprive the country.. of the political power
that now belongs there, and rightly so. Tins
I will now do as briefly as possible, intending
if necessary to revert to this point of the case
hereafter. .
- All who have inquired or paid any atten
tion to nominations, know that in proportion
to the numbet. of ininthiumts three times as
many :spend the prinaltry meetings in the bor
oughs as do in the country.
The reason; is obvious. In the boroughs
the meetings are held in the evenings when
work haa ceased, and we desire and seek rip-.
portunhies to congregate. For all the citi
zens to assemble at the place of meeting re
quires but a few minutes and no Inconven
ience. 'ln the country districts the meetings
arelzt the, afternoon, and those who attend
have on an average two miles to go, and must
necessarily spend halfa day. It always comes
at that season of the year when farmers are
busy and cannot well spare the time, if they
can,are tired and dislike the ride or walk. It
never will or never can happen that farmers
can attend their meetings with the same ease
as citizens of the tqWns, and consequently the
meetings in the boroughs must ever be better
attended than the same meetings in the coon-.
try: r If this is the case now when we have
the delegate system, and there is net special
reason for the boroughs to turn out en masse,
to the primary meetings how much will it be
so when the popularvote system Is adopted,
and every voter in the boroughs knows his
vote will count for his favorite candidate.
To illustmte.this it is only nmessary to sup
pose Beaver borough has a candidate about
whose nomination the citizens of the borough
feel a special Interest, which, by the way, is
very frequen fly Clit case. Under the delegate
system it matters not whether ten,ortwo hun
dred attend the primary meetings, their . can
didate
receiVes the same number of votes, in
the county convention. If then, under the
present system, three times as many voters
attend the primary meetings in the boroughs
as do in any of the townships of the "Maly,
how will this proportima.be increased when
it is known every vote adds to the chances of
the nomination of the favorite.
This seems to be amcluglve of the case, but
is it true? lam credibly informed that the
average number ofthose who attend a pri
mary meeting in Beaver is one hundred and
tfeentrfiee, being the number in attendance
last year when there was no excitement. In
New Brighton the number was two hundred,
Bridgewater sixty, and Rochester ninety. In
the townships the result of my inquiries is
about as follows:. Darlington, South Beaver,
Ohio, Big Beaver and Chippewa averages
thirty, Industry, Brighton, Economy, New
Sewickley, North Sewickley, Hopeweli, Me-
Gish* and Frankfort average twenty-five.—
Beaver then equalled four of the largest town
shnd five of the smaller.
wing out Rochester, New Brighton
would equal all the balance oftlie country
ly
ing east of Beaver creek. Beaver and Bridge.
water would equal the balance on the west
side of the Beaver, New Brighton, Beaver.
Falls and Eiallston naturally vote the same
way, for the same candidate. The three,last
year, gave about three hundred votes, `which
was enough to overcome the vote cast by half,
of the county, (now by the delegate system; !
controlling the' county convention). The
same boroughs can cast five hundred votes
which would be sufficient in case of the adop
tion of the popular vote system, to nominate
the whole ticket, should the balance of the disc
tricts be divided as they usually are. Beaver,
Bridgewater and Rochester general vote toi
tether, and these three would east five hunt
dred votes, and equal all the balance of the
country outside ihr New Brighton, Fal Istob
and Beaver Falls,‘'United;Beaver and New
Brighton, with the boroughs named, would
control the, county by a largo majority. -
,"'Slipposoltvio candidates wero,in the field.
and these' bOrouglis would vote for one. and
all the-bablice for the other,. the .candidate
impportixi by the boroughs would be nominat
ed by& large majority.`
By the delegate eS'stem,voting the someway,
woalcl •giva the country favorite three-fourths
oral! the votes in the convention. The bor
oughs, lying as they do together, would not
lone.a
unite ad parcel .. fritte away their strength by division,
butont the offices, among
them. ?..
How much chance would a man on the
South-sida tif the river have fora nomination,
or a man among the Sewickley's. We have
lathe countryten election districts, consist
ing of Bide.n. Economy - Marion, Pulaski,
Rochester;' township, Phillipsburgh, fade
pi3ndence.,l New! Gallica - Franklin' and St. ' ,
Clair united do dot cast, and will not under the
system proposed, as many votes as either Ro
chester, Beaver or New Brighton, (seperate
ly). Yet those Same townships have now a
representation tlf twenty, in out county con
vention.... Adop, this system.and who would
think it. worth while to bring hi the return of
St. Claitborough, with its four votes, Marion '
with nine, Philrpsburgh with ten, Freedom
district with six, and soon through the list.
We will, in fact, disfranchise half, of the dis
tricts of the county, and at ode sweep destroy
all interest in our county conventions.
Adopt this system and the bomnglis will
control the political power of the county,
nominate thein candidates, and divide the
spoils, is certainly as its adoption is chroni
cled.. The couhtryalways is and always will
bo divided. Stippose six candidates (a very
moderate number,) would seek a nomination
for Sheriff, ono living in New Brighton and
the rest Scattexed through the county, the re-
sult wou!d bo/ New Brighton alone would
nominateher candidate. Put two in New
Brightoni'nud ;Beaver would nominate cer
tainly, with Bridgewater united. How easy
'ler the clique to arrange such a programme.
If this system will not give the power over to
the clique none else can. I have already
drawn this out too long and must close. I
ask. the Republicans of the county to think of
these things, and not let the power slip out
of our hands, whilst we have it under our con
trol. It is a scheme to control the country;,
, and let us defeat it. If we do not now it will
be the last opportunity, and we will bitterly
regret it when too late.
Country delegates. never have, and thereis
but little danger of their ever , violating their
I
i instructvini. If they do it can be remedied
by tiending good men. Adopt th is system and
bagmen may, and propabiy will control the
1 ballot-boxes, and stuff them at pleasure, as
1 has already been done in counties where the
system exists. Let us not over look the fact
that the officers holding the primary meet logs
are not sworn, and that desperate and un
scrupulous . politicians would not stop to
change the figuresto accomplish theii pur
pose. As evidence of this we have only to
look to counties that have' adopted thus sys
tem. Fraud and corruption is the cry every
year, and sometimes the defeat of our. candi
dates is the result. Two years ago it' was the
cause of splitting the party in Crawfotd coun
ty, where two conventions were held and two
candidates for Congress nominated, resulting
very ilearlyintliedefeidef a Itepnbliean Con
per man in that strongly Republieui district.
The great danger of the party lain this move
ment, and hit fie forestall it. . ,
I see printed on the tickets of the candi
dates the words "Popular Vote System." Let
alt who are opposed to this system write, un
der these words,"AoAtistir" before he deposits
hts vote, end see that no vote-is counted in
favor of the system unless the word "Fon'' is
written under the words "Popular Vote Sys
tem," and that no blank tickets are counted in
favor of this darigerons system, which might
be mistakenly done unless all are watchful.

WASHINGTON, D. C. ,310 6. 1868
Mural Order; N 0.11.-4. The 30th day of
May, 1803, is designated for the• purpose of
strewing with flowers or otherwise decors.
ting the graves of Comrades who died in de%
tense of fheir country dulling the lath Rebel
lion, and whose bodies now lie in almost every
city, village, and hamlet church-yard in the
land, In this observance no form of ceremo
ny is prescribeti, but Posts and Comrades will
in their own way arrange such fitting servi
ces and testtmonials of respect as circumstan
ces may permit We are organized, Com
rades, as our Regulations tell us, for the pur
poie, among other things, "of preserving anti
.<-
strangthening those kind and fraternal feel
ings which have bound together the soldiers,
sailors and marines who united to suppress
the late Rebellion." • What can aid more to
assure this result than by cherishing tenderly
the memory of our heroic dead, who made
their breasts a barricade between our coun
try and its foes. Their soldier lives where a
reveille of freedom to a race in chains, and
their deaths the tattoo' of rebellious tyrrany
in ! arms. We should guard their graves
with sacred vigilance, All that the conse
crated wealtq and taste of the nation efin add
to their adornment and security, is but. a fit
ting
tribute to the memory of her slain defend
ers. Let no wanton font tread rudely on such
hallowed grounds. Let pleasant paths invite
the coming and going of reverent-visitors and
fond mourners. Let no vandalism of avarice
orneg,lect, no ravages of time testify to the
present 'or to the coming generations, that
we have forgotten as a people the cost of a
free and undivided - Republic,. If other eyes.
grow dull; and other hands slack. and hearts:
colt'.in the solemn trust, ours shall keep it
well as long as the light and warmth of life I
remain to us. Let us. then, nt the time ap
pointed; gather around their sacred remains,
and garland the' passionless mounds aboie
them, with the choicest flowers of Spring
time; let us raise above them the dear old
flag they saved from dishonor; let us in this
solemn presence renew our pledges to
aid and assist those whom they have left
among us as sacred, charge upon a nation's
gratitude, the soldier's and sailor's widow and
orphan. . f
11. It is the purpose of the Contender-in-
Chief to inaugurate this observance with the
tope that it wilt be kept up from year to year,
while a survivor-of the war remains to honor
the narnaoty of his departed -comrades. Re
earnestly desires the public press io call at
-11.
tenti n to this Order, and lend its friendly
aid i bringing it to the notice of Comrades
in all parts , of the country in time for &Until
