TII persistently on
wised P-re loi ns ~f t he "StatP
Tl'asiDltY 'Ring" ever since it knew
that such a ring existed. „It ha:. al
l- - ayselnimed that that "rim , " was
only ornnized to enrich its
members at the public's ex
pense, tad that other of its purposes
were to debauch the politics of the
State by buvinz its Representatives
nutrioht and ffirrtfpting Its voters.
Nearly everybody agreed with us
on these noints. and many are the
complimentary words we have recei
ved for at tack ing the robbers and hol
fling them up to merited scorn.
We are doine the more thing now,
and gill cOnt inn,. doing w - ) it the

in the walls of a penitentiary or the
obscurity of 'private life, whichever
t hey may be the most desk , rvirig of."
We hold the same opinions roncern
ing these men now that we have al
ways held, and it !natters but little
to us whether they belong to the
Republican or some other political
nr:.;animtion. If they are scoundrels
they should Ise dealt with as scound
reis, and not placed in pasitions
they can carry on an inerens4A
+U tit ut t'cll tin y, :Il,d have the fa-
citifies In their own hands for bury
ing It all out of sight. That is our
wity of treating them. If, however,
there are persons Who:used to talk
as bitterly about The "ring" as we
did, but who now think duty re
quirei them to Support Gen. Hart
ranft— one of the most offending of its
members—for Governor, they should
at least be fair enough to confess that
they and not us have changed po
litical beliefs and formed different po
litical fellos.vishins.
THERE area few important facts
connected with the management of
our State finances which are indis
putable. They are agreed upon by
all parties. Among these indisputa
ble facts are the following:
Ist. The State Treasurer, Auditor
General. 6:c., handle, on an average,
about a million and a half of dollars
of State funds, for their own benefit.
_'d. These officers use a portion of
the proceeds thus derived (0 corrupt
voters and Garry primary conven
tions. The balance they place to
their own private hank account.
Bd. Not satisfied with the million
and a half of dollars above referred
to, these officers made a vigorous but
unsuccessful attempt, last winter, to
induce the Legislature to allow.them
to borrow live millions more.
Gen. Ifartranft is now a candidate
for the Governorship of this State.
That he will, if eleCted, use his influ
ence to secure the authorization of
this loan,is clear and beyond all ques
tion. • The man, therefore, who votes
for General f fartranft, at the October
elect ion , deliberately votes to increase
the State Tied five millions of dollars,
and to entail additional la at ion upon
himself and children. - There may he
a great ninny simpletons who will do
this, but we apprehend a majority of
the Republicans of the county will
do nothing of the kind.

The,/ Oft His Ears (V:
1H) Friday morning seven men at
tacked Mr. Edward P. Jones, pit
boss at Carbon Hill-Colliery. near
Scranton, Pi nnsylvrtnia, while on
his way to work. and cut anti beat
him in such a shorking manner that
it is thought he cannot recover.
The fiends cut off both his ears, cut
him seven times in the head with
some sharp instrument, made a con
tused wound on the hack of the head,
broke his wrists, cut his hand in a
fearful manner, and his one shoulder
showed evidence of being struck
with a large stone. It was a dense
woods where the crime was com
mitted, and over a quarter of a mile
from any habitation. They left him
for dead, no doubt, or thought him
so badly injured that he would die
before he would be found. But Mr.
Jones managed to Work or crawl the
distance of a quarter of a mile to a
neighbor's house, and was lying on
the stelis when found, in an tincon
cious state. He was found by a gen
tleman and conveyed in a wagon to
his house, in a very critieal ennili
tion. A physician was called and
dressed the wrnls. There is very
little hope of his recovery. Mr. A.
B. Weisenfluh, the outside boss, no•
t ice(' six or seven well"dressed young
men, and perfect strangers, coming
ourof the woods where the crime
had occurred, lint thought nothing
strange of it. The police are mak
ing every exertion to discover the
fiends. Several persons have been
arrested, hut as nothing could be
proved they were discharged.
Mr. Jones is an Englishman by
birth, aged about fifty five vears,
and inside boss at Carbon Hill eol

lie has devoted a "busy life" to ear

grave questi o n of government poli
cies, roil the equally grave questions
affecting the welfare of labor and
development of the industrial Inter.
gists of the country. Pennyless,
friendless and alone In a great city,
struggling for years against adverse
fortune, he has achieved unpreceden
ted success. Editing the recognized
organ of the old Vhig party (in
which he has been schooled from
Is)yhtsxl), he was among the first in
advocating its abandonment and the
formation of the Republican party,
when he hail to choose between duty
to his convictions or fealty to party
organization. For 30 years with
each setting sun he has boldly utter
ed his convictions on the world's,
public doings of the preceding 24
hours, whether political, tociai, mor
al or religious, yet never pandering
to the vices or follies of his time.
During that whole period Crusader
like ho has championed the univers
al manhood of the race and the equal
rights of all mankind.
No one living has devoted more
brain-work to the cause of universal
liberty, or the elevation of fallen and
crushed humanity, and few, if any,
have endured more of-the jeers of
gilded prejudice or the scoffs of big
oted error. Yet to-day the leading
ideas with which he has struggled so
long with unyielding tenacity are
incorporated Into organic law and
are stamped indelibly upon the pil
lars of the Republic. And now,
when a great political party, through
its regular organization, selects such
a man for its standard-bearer, I hail
it as the political, dawn of a brighter
and better day. The Democrat who
can lay' aside his party prejudices of
a life-time and accept the foremost
and ablest representative of the ideas
of his political opponents, gives the
best evidence he can furnish that he
is willing to let the dead past bury
its uead and to act in the living pres
ent.
When the people of one section of
the Union, despite the education of
their entire section, rally around the
standard of a man whom for a quar
ter of a century they have been
Wight by all their teachings to hate
us their deadliest foe, they give the
best evidence that with them the an
imasities of the past are buried for
ever. If not Wilds way, how, then,
is the Union ever to be restored to
peace and lasting reconciliation? A
victorious party in a,, carnival of
blood cannot, in this. ) age, convert
itself into a party of perpetual hates.
When the vanquished are ready to
close the bloody chasm and bury
forever the animosities engendered
in the deadly strife, returning over
the graves of their dead ones, and
through the hitter memories of the
past to grasp in fraternal concord the
hand of the victor, where is the pa
triotism that would refuse the prof
fered offer?
In what other way can we ever
expect to have our people homoge
nous in ideas and institutions from
the (lull' to the lakes, and from ocean
'to ocean, with one Union and one
destiny now and forever? Are these
grand results of less consequence to
the Republic than the ambitious
wishes of one man struggling to pro
long his term of °nice?

The Sinking-Fund Mather,.

perts Answered by one of his Ring. :
.lusters—amtradieted by his own
Cashier.
State Treasurer Mackey, in his late
cstrd, denied the charge of "speculat
iug in the securities belonging to the
Sinki.,g Fund," thereby intending to
convey the idea that he had kept that
fund inviolate; and Messrs. Lewis and
Shafer, the bankers invited by him
to make the " examination " of the
affairs of the Treasury, attempt to
convey the same idea in their white
washing report.
NOW We propose to answer these
miserable atti milts to deceive the
public, in the language ofpne of Mr.
Mackey's trusted friendanme of his
most Oben nt aids in iiianaging his
election as treasurer, and one of the
most active managers at the Harris
burg Convention in securing the
nomination of Hart ranft. \\'e refer

ury itivestigation in 1870, and person
ally cognizant of the facts developed
On that cavasiial. 111 writing home
to his paper of March 19, 1570, he
drew the following strong indictment
against the management of the State
tinanyea. rrhis wits when he was not
member of the Treasury Ring; sub
sequently, he was taken in and is now
one of its leading spirits!:
"Senator itillingielt's investigating
Commit be has now clearly shown
that the management of the State
Treasury has been for years so con
ducted as to impair the public credit,
aste the public funds, corrupt leg
ion, and di.gtace the Republican
party. Tia-s are hard declarations,
but I indulge them because I mu
thoroughly convinced it is now time
for some one to speak' out boldly in
denunciation of a system and a prac
tice which have grown and strength
ened among a Clam Of Republicans,
that the only object of a Republican
1 victory is to put money into their - 1
' pockets -that no result in Repu tilt-
can politics is worth a consideration
unless it directly inures to enriching
this class of men who, us a general
rule, bring neither brains nor patri
otism to advance and dignify our or
ganization. It is not possible for even '
the Republican party, strong and re
spectable as it Is in the masses which
compose it, to exist under the load of
obloquy entailed by those practices,
if it make no bold and thorough ef
fort at once to reform these evils.—
The testimony of officers connected
with the Treasury shows conclusive
ly that a fearful system of financial
,sperulation (I will nut say peculationt
has been carried on for years with the
public funds ; t hat they have been
loaned to irresponsible private individ
uals ; that mere brokers, engaged in
usurious business, have been doing
their bunking wirh (he public money,
until we now have the tact establish
ed that the State Treasury owes the
Sinking Fund more ;hail a million of
dollars, or in other words, the tax
payers of Pennsylvania, after having
cheerfully and promptly paid their
dues to the Com mon weattlefind their
Treasury short of a minion and a ha/f
cf dollar! Tills amount of money
is owed by the State Treasury to the
sinking Fund. Instead of the State
debt being reduced a million and a
half, and the people thus relieved of
the payment of burdensome interest,
their money has been thus applied,
while the record dearly shows there
was a million or more at the disposal
of the Treasury to loan to banks, lo
cated in regions where there is no ne
cessity of kveping public money on
deposit. It is time, in view of these
facts, fur Republican legislators and
organs to be plain with one another,
and decide whether thi y will longer
allow the vietorius which they win
to be used as a means of disgracing
their party and destroying the Gov
ernment.'
The material fact here stated in
regard io the Sinking Filmd was
mere than coroborated by the testi
mony of the into Thomas Nicholson,
at that time Mackey's cashier. lie
was examined before the Senate Fi
nance Committee on the evening of
the 2.4 th of February, 1870. In the
course of his examination
"lie declared that every dollar in
(he ,S7ate Treasury, AND A MILLION
AND A HALF IN ADDITION, belonged
to the Slinking Fund. 'He enlarged up
on what he termed the btrngling sys
tem of Pennsylvania as compared to
that of Washington, by which county
treasurers paid judges without war
rants ; by which advances were paid
to almost everybody, from Governor
to palter and folder, and by which
warrants were paid before they be
came due. The county treasurers
fail to make quarterly reports mid
payments as required by law, and in
Philadelphia alone the State was an
nually defrauded of at least one hun
dred thousand dollars in tavern li
censes."
It must be remembered In this con
nection that a few days before Mackey
kid testified before the committee
that his "total deposits with various
banks and firms in different parts of
the State amounted to $1,303,203,62.',k:
Mr. Nicholson testified that every
dollar of this, "and $2,500,000 in ad
dition. belonged to the Sinking
Fund"—so- that the Sinking Fund
at that time had been robbed of the
enormous sum of $2,803,203.61! And
yet Messrs. Mackey, Lewis, and
Shafer have the effrontery to tell the
people that the Sinking Fund, de
clared by the constitution to be a sa
cred trust, has been kept inviolate,
while they knew, all:.this time, that
it n its over two million and a half
short.
And John F. Hartranft is equally
responsible for this, in his double ca
pacity of Auditor and Commissioner
—the constitution declaring that "no
part of the said Sinking Fund shall
be used or applied otherwise than in
the extinguishment of the public
debt;" and the act of „Assembly of
April 22, 186 s, enforcing the same in
this explicit language: At no time
or in no manner shall.any portion of
the fund hereby created, be other
wise applied, except as herein pro
vided, under a penalty of one thous
and dollars."
In all candor, we again ask the
honest taxpayers whether it is not
time such a reckless and dishonest
system of mismanaging our State fi
nances was broken up? In the light
of such plain and unanswerable facts,
are they willing to perpetuate this
Treasury Iting rule by promoting
one of its tools to a still higher office?
