THE DEMOCRACY.
The Democratic paijty on Wed
nesday of last week, at Wilkes
barre, nominated Hon. J. R. Lud
low, ot Philadelphia, for Supreme
Judge, and Frank M. Hutchinson, of
Allegheny, tor Treasurer, the former
being at present Judge of the Com
mon Pleas Court of Philadelphia,
the latter connected with the Fort
Wayne Railroad. This ticket is a
respectable one, and personally the
candidates are unexceptionable.
The Convention re-adopted the
Ohio Democratic retrograde plat
form,with the exception of the tariff
plank. The candidates henceforth,
represent not personal qualifications
but principles, and are standard
bearers of their party, with whom
stands or falls the cause they up
hold, as the issue may be favorable
or otherwise. It is not I probable
that Democratic orators "or papers
will imitate the disastrous course
of last Fall and wage another bitter
and personal campaign. They have
not forgotten their humiliating and
crushing defeat so soon to repeat
such folly. What sort of an issue
then can they raise ? The platform
is an attempt to revive the past and
to breath new life into the dry
-bones of the old States Rights De
mocracy of twenty years ago. The
Kip Van Winkle Democracy has just
-been awakened from its long re
pose, and coming down from the
mountains where no change occurs,
into the valley of wonderful growth
and development, does not quite
understand the new order of things,
and is out of all sorts with that
-modern progress that has made eve
rything so strange, but it will learn
a new lesson next October, viz :
that the old questions that once di
vided the country are settled and
new ones are demanding attention.
The war established the fact that
the Union is supreme over the
States, and the doctrine of States
Rights must be so interpreted as not
to conflict with or impair the na
tional supremacy; the Republican
party extended the S application
of liberty to the black race and se
cured equal rights to all male citi
zens of whatever race or color. The
national debt, being wisely man
aged, is now placed upon a
sound basis for gradual extinguish
ment. American industry has been
fostered, taxation reduced, internal
improvements begun and carried
forward, and others projected on a
magnificent and all difficulties
with foreign"nations adjusted. - In
regard to all these issues the Re
publican party has been faithful.
The same spirit that prompted it to
perform such noble work worthy of
praise, animates it now and quali
fies it to enter upon the discussion
and settlement of new issues of great
importance. The Democratic party
casts its eyes backward, hankering
after the flesh pots of Egypt, the
Republican looks forward hoping
for the fulfillment of the prophetic
Aspirations of the masses that
labor may have its full reward, and
all legalized wrongs against the
well being of society be abolished.
Tiie questions that are uppermost in
.mind and discussion are such as re-
late to political economy or the ele
vation of the laboring class, and
*ke Republican party is anxious to
provide remedies for whatever in this
respect needs curing. She advances
towards the consummation - slowly
bnt with well considered steps. The
Democracy finds fault, picks flaws,
and grumbles, bat proposes no prac
tical measure of relief, and is with
out power or ideas. The people
will not {rust a party so helpless,
having no sympathy with modern
progress,, no practical ability to
manage public affairs, whose very
name has become offensive to loyal
citizens. What advantages has the
Democratic party over the Republi
can that power should be entrusted
to it? Does its past record inspire
confidence? Is its negative charac
ter to be preferred ? Is its total de
pravity a recommendation ? Is its
general tendency in the direction
of more freedom and equality for
the people? What are the means"
by which it can secure adequate
legislation to carry cat its plans?
The party is hungry for power and
the spoils of office, and it is an
easy thing to make great promises,
bat quite a different one to fulfill
those piomises. Whoe
upon the Democratic party for help,
will find that the assistance render
ed is but a broken reed. The Re
publican party has the power to exe
cute its promises; it has made great
ones heretofore, and kept them to
the letter; it never breaks a promise.
The prosperity of the country to
day is due to the party in power,
and why should it not be continued
in power ? No good reason can be
given, and, therefore, no one can
doubt the result of the elections
this Fall. I
COMMUNISTIC TENDENCIES.
There was a meeting of Grangers
at Boston on Monday, at which
J. C. Abbott, General Deputy of
the National Grange, and Hon.
Amassa Walker spoke on the great
revolution going on in the country
in regard to cheaper transportation
and railroad monopolies. Mr. Ab
bott contended that the cost of
freight and travel could be reduced
to one-quarter of the present rates,
and gave statistics of the earnings of
different railroads to support the as
sertion. Mr. Walker thought that
the only way to protect the busi
ness interests of the country, is
through the interference of Congress.
He spoke of three ways: first, by a
general law fixing the rate of travel
and freight on all the roads; second,
to create n#w lines between the
principal depots of transportation;
and third, by purchasing all roads
and placing them under government
management, to be leased, which
would open all roads to the public
at the cheapest rate. This last plan
was advised as most feasible.
Among the industrial classes there
is a growing tendency to favor com
munistic doctrines. The discussion
of postal telegraphy and government
management of railroads shows that
communistic ideas are prevalent in
the community, and in this respect
a radical change is taking place in
the education of the people. The
old doctrine that the duties of gov
ernment are exhausted in the pro
tection "ofUiffij and property seems
to be yielding to one that requires,
governmental agency to develop and
manage all large and common inter
ests. 1 Democracy refers everything
to private enterprise, and by this
means educates and' develops a
strong and independefat race of peo
ple. Communism teaches the peo
ple to depend on the government
and destroys independence of char
acter. Let the people work out
their own progress and the very ef
fort will make them strong and self
reliant. It is possible, however,
that the Government might run the
railroads and telegraph cheaper than
they are now managed, but having”
acquired so much additional power
and patronage, what party without
a revolution would be able to over
throw the party in power ? Where
would the end of this interference
be? This tendency is dangerous,
and the government should let alone
all business that can be possibly
transacted by the people in their
private capacity. While govern
mental aid is a matter of necessity
to accomplish a great national un
dertaking* the necessity may excuse
the interfer ace, but that interfer
ence or aid should stop as soon as
the necessi y ceases, and the peo
ple be left to work oat resalts as
they may. We do not think that
the telegraph ilines or railroads
will pass into the Government’s
hands for some time yet.
THE RADICAL i FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1873.
POLITICAL NOTES.
Not to give the idea too dramatic
a turn, it seems as if the Democracy
were determined to shake Speer.
Butler is going to be Governor
of Massachusetts, notwithstanding
the opposition of the sllk-stoctfng
gentry. Where is Scott ? Another
letter from him to Butler would
now be In order.
Speer was regarded as the rising
man in the Democratic party in
Pennsylvania until he got squelched
at Wilkesbarre. Now he is the
deadest Salary grabber in the coun
ty. Another evidence that honesty
is the best policy*
Wolf, of sudden conversion no
toriety, is likely to be re-nominated
by the Republicans of Union and
Snyder for*Assembly. He is cer
tainly fortunate iu having a constit
uency that adhere closely to party
usage, regardless of the fitness and
integrity of the candidate.'
Mitchell, of Tioga, Chairman of
Ways and Means Committee of the
House last session, has been re-nom*
inated by the Republicans of Tioga
county, and will be the next Speak
er of the House, unless Myers, of
the adjoining county of Bradford,
should also be a candidate, in which
event McCormick, of Allegheny,
may carry off the prize.
Tub nomination of Hutchinson
for State Treasurer tty the Demo
cratic State Convention is a virtual
concession that Mackey will be
elected, and that the Democrats
tend to make their fight for the elec
tion of Supreme Judge. Ludlbw is
the strongest candidate they, could
have presented,\nd it is possible he
may not be beaten oyer fifty thou
sand.
The Democratic * Governor, of
Ohio thinks that the Republicans
take a great deal better care of the
rebels than the Northern soldiers,
and is endeavoring to win, by such
blandishments the support .of the
loyal soldiers who daring the war be
denounced as hirelings and mudsills.
The effort be may as Well forego.
His language is that of a demagogue
seeking office, and will ixgure rather
than help his Qabernatofdalchances.
The Democrats arfe quietly work
ing to get dontror of the Senate
next session. They expect to elect
Nagle in Philadelphia, Dill in
Union, defeat Anderson in Craw
ford, and carry the Montgomery and
Schuylkill districts, thus insuring a
majority in the next Senate. Con
sidering the apathy existing in our
ranks, it is no wonder they are en
couraged to make the effort, and
there fs a possibility that they may
succeed unless Republicans in the
districts named are aroused and an
active canvass be commenced at
once.
It is intimated that there will be
an effort on the part of certain dis
affected persons to defeat one or two
of oar candidates for Assembly.
Mr. M’Kee, of Butler, and Mr.
Cross, of Beaver, are named in this
connection. We trust our friends
will look after this not only in this
county but throughout the district.
They are both good men, and the
honest, orderly citizens, especially
the Republican citizens of this dis
trict cannot afford to have either
defeated. The election of the State
ticket is important, but if anything,
the election of such men to the
Legislature is more important.
Friends be on your guard and report
any evidence of treachery at once to
the several county committees of
the.district. >
! I
1 The Democratic Senatorial Con
ference in the district composed of
the counties of Union, Snyder, Per
ry and Northumberland,
nated A. H. Dill, which indicates
a determined effort on the part
of the Democracy to carry that
Senatorial district. The Republicans
have a majority of nearly if not
quite one thousand in the district,
and there should be no question as
to the result; but Dill is very popu
lar, having been elected three years
ago in a district as largely Repub
lican, and the Republicans have
been quarreling oyer the nomination
untiPthany are disposed to concede
his election. He is a gentleman of
ability and integrity the Repub
licans must select a candidate of
like character or they will not only
nvite but deserve defeat.
POLITICAL.
—John M. Stebman has been elected
chairman of the Lancaster Republican
County Committee.
—The Pitaburgh Commercial says: In
the Western States the Democratic party
pretends to be anti-monopoly; in Virgin
ia Its candidate for Governor was nomi
nated in the railroad interest. The differ
ence Is accounted for by the fact that
Virginia is believed to be Democratic,
While in the Western States that party ia
in the minority. Wherever the party has
the power it la on the monopoly side.
—The Democrats of Juniata county on
Monday placed iu nomination the follow
ing ticket: State Senator—Dr, J. H.
Crawford; Assemcly—Jerome Hetrick;
Sheriff—W. H. Krodse; Register and
Recorder—John T. Metlin; Treasurer-*
Samuel Showers; County Conmissioner—
Alex. Cjozler; Jury Commissioner—Da
vid Partner; Auditor—John Fitzgerald*;
Coroner—Joseph Middsgb.
—Politics appears to be mixed in the
eastern coal regions In Schuylkill coun
ty, there is a prospect of three local tick
ets—Republican, Democratic and Work
ingmen’s, the lasi- named put up by the
miners. The Democrats are in farther
trouble because they have no county
organ. The Pottsville Standard, which
has hitherto occupied that position, is
independent, repudiates the Ohio plat
form of the Straight-Outs, and has almost
indicated an intention to bolt the regular
nominations.
—The Venango county Democratic
Convention met at Franklin on Tuesday
and made the following nominations:
Assembly—A. J. Keenan; County Treas
urer—lsaac M. Sowers; County Commis
sioner—A. J. Cowan : Coroner—Dr. S. G.
Snowden; Jury Commissioner—J. E,
Muse; County Auditor—M. 8. Duffield.
RI. Beers, of Rouseville, and 8. C. T.
Dodd, of Franklin, were appointed dele
gates to the State Convention. John
McKisseck was selected as the chairman
of the. County Committee.
—The Blair county Democratic Con
vention met in Hollidaysburg on Mon
day, and nominated the following ticket:
Assembly—James Funk; Sheriff—John
Rocket; Commissioner—Oliver Hagger
tyn ; Jury Commissioner—James Mein*
tosh PoorfDirector—Emnuel Clapper ;
Auditor—RobertJL. Holliday ; Coroner—
John Hickey. Thomas W. Jackson was'
elected Representative delegate to the
State Convention, and S. M. Woodcock
Chairman of the County Committee. The
delegates to the State Convention were
instructed to support Bon. James R. Lad
low for Supreme Judge. The Resolutions
are of the usual kind, except that the sala
ry grab was denounced.
—How many have it in their thoughts
that there are no less than seven political
parties before the country? Yet so it is,
and the names of these organizations are
as follows; Republican, Democratic, Lib
eral, Labor Reform, Woman Suffrage,
Temperance, and Farmers. Surely be/e
is an opportunity for every “free and en
lightened citizen” to suit himself with a
set of political principles and to march to
the polls with a congenial band of asso
ciates. Every question that can possibly
be twisted into an issue, and some that
cannot, has its place somewhere {among
these parties, with all its sides duly pro
vided for. And yet it Is not an era of
special political activity.
—A statement having been made by a
writer in Harrisburg, signing himself
Junius, in urging the repeal of the Local
Option law, that liquor was furnished
last winter by the Librarian of the Sen
ate, at the public expense. Mr. Russell
Errett, editor of the Pittsburgh Commer
cial, and Clerk of the Senate thus replies;
So far from this being a “notorious
fact,” it is not a fact at all. There was
□o bar-room in the Senate chamber, last
winter, iu charge of the Senate Librari
an of any one else, and no Senator par
took of whiskey or brandy at the cost of
the Commonwealth. Peremptory orders
were given, at the opening of the session,
by both Speaker and Clerk, to the Libra
rian, that liquor of all kinds should be
excluded from the chambers, and the ord
ers were strictly adhered to.
—A dispatch from Pottsville on Mon
day says: Hon. William M. Randall was
yesterday defeated in the Democratic
Convection by a combination that was a
perfect surprise, as a majority of the del
egates bad been instructed for him. His
friends assert that money did it, which has
created a bitter dissatisfaction among old
line Democrats of the district, believing,
as they do, that it was procured by open
and shameful corruption. There is a ru
mor on the streets that the friends of Sen
ator Randall insist upon his being an in
dependent candidate. O. P. Pecbtel, of
Pottsville, was the nominee. Boyer,
Egan and Foster are the candidates for
the. lower bouse. Commenting on this
the Harrisburg Telegraph says: Our
readers will learn from the Telegraphic
dispatches from Schuylkill county, that
the Democrata of that county have cheat
ed jesach other in the nomination of their
candidate for Senator. Mr. Randall al
leges that a majority of the delegates
were openly instructed to support him,
and that he was utterly surprised when be
was counted out. Mr. Randall is an ultra
Democrat, and it makes little difference
to the'Republicans who represents that
county, if a Democrat is to come; but
we must confess that be deserves better
treatment at the hands of the Democracy.
He has labored bard and faithfully for
the parly.
