REMEMBER ! REMEMBER!! RE
MEMBER 1 !!
Let every Voter
REMEMBER
That every vote cast for Asa Packer is a
vote cast for Disloyalty Repudiation and
Ruin.
I At every Taxpayer
ltujiujinnn
That every vote cast for Asa Packer is a
vote cast for an increased public debt and
nc-reased taxes.
Let every Soldier
REMEMBER
That every vote cast for Asa Packer i.< a
vote cast for the man who sympathized with
and entertained rebels in the day of our
country's trial and who ran off to Europe in
a cowardly manner to avoid the dangers and
responsibilities of an American citizen,
when every man's aid and sympathy were
needed to save the Union.
Let every Honest man
REMEMBER
That Asa Packer ran away from Maueh
Chunk to escape the payment of his lioaest
taxes and that his dishonesty in this partic
ular enabled him to escape from $32,0X1 of
taxes by ])aviug $8,05 and that the ba'ance
of the $32,000 was laid upon the taxpayers
of the State.
Let every one
REMEMBER
That Pennsylvania needs a loyal and an hon
est man for Governor, and that that man is
John W. Geary.
Let every one
REMEMBER
That Cyrus L. Pershing the copperhead
candidate for Supreme Judge was a rebel
sympathizer during the war and is now a
bitter partisan, is only a third rate lawyer
and utterly unGt for the office of Supreme
Judge.
REMEMBER
That Democratic rule brought a debt of
over $40,000,000 on the State and that a
Republican administration has been paying
it off at the rate of TWO .MILLIONS a year.
PACKER S GOSPEL
The great apostle of modern Democracy,
James Buchanan, proclaimed that his party
favored free-trade because it would reduce
the wages of the laboring uian ? He further
declared that such a redaction of the tariff
as would compel the laboring uian to work
forT'SN CENTS A DA', would cover the
eoun.ry with benefits and blessings. That
was not the poor man's hut the rich ntaD's
gospel. It would suit A-a Packer first
rate. He can soon mike iris tweti y mil
lions a hundred millions if lie can git such
laws passed as will compel his cmjri yees to
work for ten cents a day. What cares he
how the poor naa and his family live?
What does it mater to him ? His business
is to make uioney, drink wine, live on the
fat of the land and hob nob with rebels like
Jeff. Davis and \ allandingham. For this
purpose he aiu-i have money. If he can
coin it out of the poor laboring man's sweat
and suffering ho cares not. lie is the advo
cate, for thin very purpose, of FREE
TRADE. The whole Democratic party is!
committed to Free Trade because its leaders
are rich men and millionaires. Free Trade
makes the rich richer and the poor, poorer.
Laboring men if you want to work for TEN
C ENTS a day that nten like PACKER may
roll in wealth and luxury then vote the
Democratic ticket. If you want to get good
wages and lay up money enough to buy a
home for yourself and little ones, then vote
for Geary and protection to free American
laborers of' whom you are one.
OUTRAGEOUS TYRANNY.
It is no uncommon thing to have every
act of a Republican administration stigma
tized as one of tyranny. High handed out
rages on Democrats of the ultra rebel stamp
have been common thiugs, to be seen in
every copperhead paper for years. Anoth
er high handed outrage we have been look
ing for lately has not yet appeared, but this
week s Gazette will doubtless contain it in
banting capitals. No less a personage than
the high and mighty money kiDg and rail
road monopolist is the victim. A certain
Satrap of Grant's, named Delauo of the In
ternal Revenue Department is the offender.
1! is crime is no more nor less than ordering
a revision of the income returns and a re-a<
sessment of such as carpet bagged and es
caped the former assessment. Now Asa be
longs to this class, indeed it is principally
composed of Democrats, and the outrageous
character of the act is, that Asa, right in the
midst of the campaign, will be obliged to give
in on the $.>0,000 arrears of taxes, or leave
lus priuceiy home and, neglecting import
ant political business, go carpet bagging to
Philadelphia and other places until Delano's
asso.-surs give up the chase. Now Asa has
sworn and ran and traveled and prevarica
ted until lie thought he had fairly and final
o eluded the assessors and it is ban! to
have to repeat the thing so soon. It is an
outrageous act of tyranny on the part of
arant ,-atrup. Oh, poor, poor, Asa!
• US , I ~ out 'ko thirty thousand at
last. 1 oor fellow ! He has only made a
mi.hon or two this year out of the coal
strike. Alas! Alas! Even Asa, the great
aristocrat, will at last have to come down
with the cash. He didn't want to be hon
est but I ncleSam compels him. What
erucl tyanny! Where's Booth?
DON T FORGET
\ oter don't forget that the Republican
party is the only one that ever reduced the
State debt and taxes. They increased for
forty years under Democratic rule. Do you
want any better reason for voting the Re
publican ticket ?
MOB LAW IN PHILADELPHIA.
For nearly a year past, Philadelphia has
been enjoying Democratic rule, the first
time in a number of years. Prior to the
advent of this Democratic Mayor and police,
Philadelphia had the enviable reputation
of being the safest and most orderly city
in the Union. Since the Democracy, by
fraud, obtained the control of the city
police, murders have ran up to an average
of one a day and the murderers are seldom
even arrested. This is surelv bad enough,
but it was all eclipsed on Friday night last
when these outrages culminated in deliberate
, ly planned riots. The Keystone club, a Demo
cratic organization deliberately attacked
and undertook to destroy the headquarters
of the Kepublican Invineibles, after the
members of that organization had adjourn
ed, closed their rooms and gone home.
This occurred in the neighborhood of Fifth
and Chestnut streets. On the same night
on Market street an organized attack was
made, on an Irish Republican meeting and
the meeting was broken up. In a'l these
riotous proceedings, the police made little or
no effort to keep the peace, preserve order
or protect the persons and property of the
unoffending citizens. The Mayor and
chief of police were not to be found, no
arrests were made, and the city authorities
refuse to make any effort to arrest the of
fending parties. The riots were clearly pre
arranged for partisan purposes. The reign
of terror threatened by Bill McMullin is
already begun. Such is copperhcadism.
They are the promulgators of mob-law,
riot, disorder and bloodshed. Who can vote
the ticket of such a party ? Friends of law
and order can you ?
FREE-TRADE IN ENGLAND.
TI.„ Ptuiwiaifc press lor years has held
up as an argument in favor of free trade, the
alleged prosperity of England though her
policy was only partially free-trade. Eng
land did prosper for long years while she
found a market here for all her manufac
tures under our Democ'ratis free-trade ad
ministration. Since Republicanism came
into power and adopted a protective policy,
England has not been able to grow rich at
ous expense, the profiits of American labor
have been kept in America. England has
felt the effect of it and to-day English labor
ers are clamoring for a protective tariff.
Free trade benefitted England while the
Democtatic party in the United States held
the reins of power and sold out the best in
terests of American labor to British manu
facturers. But free-trade tells a different
story for England when she can no longer
live at our expense; while we, delivered
from British avarice have grown strong and
rich in spite of all the immense losses of the
war. Democracy in the face of such facts,
is to day clamoring for a return to free-trade
and slavery to British capitalists. Republi
canism declares in favor of keeping ourselves
free from business slavery to England and in
favor of the American laborer keeping the
profits of his own labor. All who approve
of protection and desire prosperity will vote
the whole Republican ticket.
$56,908,187 90.
Fifty-six millions, nine hundred and six
ty-eight thousand, one hundred and eighty
seven do liars and ninety cents of the public
debt have been paid off in seven months of
Republican rule. Such is the official state
ment. The amount of each month since
July Ist is as follows :
Paid in March, April and May S2O 050 646 89
June 16 410 132 54
" July 7 435 744 29
" August 5 604 234 79
" September 7 467 429 39
Total $56 968 IS7 90
The public debt, like the State debt kept
continually increasing while Democracy con
, trolled the Cabinet. The moment Andy
J .Johnson departed from the White House
the work of retrenchment and reform in the
Revenue department began and instead of
an increase, each successive month has mark
ed a decrease of the debt by millions. This
is done too not by increased but with de
creed taxes. Do the taxpayers waut any
better evidence as to what party they should
keep in power. Vote the copperhead ticket
from top to bottom if you want more Debt
and more Taxes. If you want taxes re
ducrd and debts paid, vote the whole Re
publican ticket Taxpayer which will you
choose?
A OTE for Geary the hero of two wars.
HOW IS IT ?
Copperheads assert that the Republicans
are notoriously corrupt and have squandered
millions of the public funds. Rut they are
unable to deny that in spl ; e of these charges
the Republicans have paid off an inmense
amount of tUu public debt, both of this
State and of the Nation. Neither do they
pretend to deny that these debts continually
increased under Democratic rule. Now if
Democrats have always increased the debts
and the taxes, while practising THEIR pe
culiar economy, and Republicans have
abolished taxes and paid off debts by THEIR
peculiar extravagance, which ought the tax
payers to prefer? The Democratic eoonomy
that makes debts and taxes or the Repub
lican extravagance that pays debts and
abolishes taxes? The fact is we think
modern Democrats have invented a new
set of definitions. Economy in Democratic
terms seems to mean keeping all they get
of the public money and dividing it among
themselves, leaving the debts to take care
of themselves. Extravagance as they ap
ply it to Republicans seems to mean the
foolishness, as they deem it, of paying the
pubiic debt with the public funds instead of
appropriating it as the spoils of office,
which, according to the Democratic motto,
belong to the victors. llow is it? Vote
the whole Republican ticket.
A MILLION A YEAR.
For forty long years of peace and plcnty
Democratic rule increased the State debt at
the average rate of over a million dollars per
year with continually increasing taxes. Re
publican rule in time of war with extraordi
nary expenses has paid over a million each
year of the State debt, beside all the extra
ordinary expenses incident to the war. At
the same time it has more than doubled the
appropriations to our common schools and
more than all has entirely abolished land
taxes. Taxpayer whom will you support?
Do you prefer taxes and Democracy or Re
publicanism and freedom from debt and
taxes?
LOOK OUT FOR ROORBACHS.
Be on the lookout for all sorts of false
hoods on the eve of the election. It is the
custom of our enemies. All sorts of un
founded stories are made up purposely to
deceive, and circulated after it is too late to
contradict them through the newspapers.
Let no one believe them. They have al
ready circulated false charges against all our
candidates and will not hesitate to circulate
anything out of which they have the least
hope of making political capital. Beware
we say once more, and be not decieved.
EVERT man that votes the Democratic
ticket, votes for moie debt and more taxes.
$75,000.
COPPERHEAD KEIOII.
The cops cry aloud to bo given the reins j
of government that they may inaugurate a
reign of reform. Let us see how it would
work. We took occasion ourselves to re
buke some things that were done last winter
but they were not half as bad as the oops
tried to do. One of the leading copper
heads introduced a bill to increase the pay
of members from SIOOO to SISOO, three
fourths of the cops voted for the bill and
would have passed it had it been in their
power but the Republicans defeated it and
thereby saved the State in that single item
875,000. Such is the economy to which
taxpayers are invited to lend their aid. If
copperheads attempt such things in a hope
less minority, what would they do if they
had a majority ? Voter, pause and think
before you vote for a single copperhead
candidate.
HON EDWARD SCULL.
The nomination of Mr. Scull is now made
unanimous by the action of the Fulton Coun
ty Committee. Mr. Scull's nomination
gives full satisfaction, not only in tho Dis
trict but throughout the state. All agree
that he is just the man for the place, that
he will be an ornament to the Senate and a
credit to the District. Let him have every
Republican vote in Bedford County and
Hiram Findley will be nowhere. With
Scull, Long and Longenocker in the next
Legislature, the interests of our District will
be well cared for. The work of retrench
ment and reform will find in them warm and
able supporters.
GREENBACKS
Voter have you a greenback in your pock
et? Is it a one or a five or a ten dollar bill?
It represents so much labor and it is a prom
ise to pay by the government the sum rep
resented on its face to you as the holder of
that note. If you vote for Packer you vote
for its repudiation, Democracy is to-day
the advocate of repudiation, and Asa Packer
is its representative in this state. If he is
elected the influence of your own state will
be cast in favor of robbing you of your bard
earned wages. Can you vote such a ticket ?
If you don't wish to be robbed of your earn
ings, vote for Geary and the whole Repub
lican ticket.
IT is not denied that Asa Packer used
corrupt means to get the Democratic Dom
ination for Governor. He has large rail
road interests and the man that will use cor
rupt means to obtain a nomination will not
hesitate to use corrupt means and abuse his
official position, if elected Governor, to pass
any railroad monopoly bill that would put
money in his pocket. He is unlit to be
trusted with such opportunities and should
never be permitted to occupy the Guberna
torial chair. Vote for Geary who has no
railroad or miniDg monopolies to care for.
PERSHING is the first man ever nomina
ted for the Supreme bench as a reward for
partisan service. Politics should be kept
out of the Courts and Judges should be ap
pointed or elected alone because of their
Judicial ability. Democracy has set the bad
example of seating partisan politicians where
none but able and impartial judges should
be found. Let the people vote against the
partisan and condemn the politician by vo
ting for Judge Williams, who has given the
best evidence of his fitness for the high office
for whiee be is nominated.
QUERY.
If the copperhead member of the Legis
lature tried, though in a hopeless minority,
to increase the pay of member $75,000 in
the aggregate what would they have done if
they had been in majority? Is that what
Cops call economy. That is the kind of
economy that rolled up a State debt of $40,-
000,000 and laid a heavy tax on every foot
of land in the State. The people want no
more of that. They will vote for Geary and
the Republican ticket.
NO GOUGING
Major William Dibert our popular candi
date for Sheriff, is the choice of the party
by a fair vote. There was no gouging in
his case. He is a clever man, a public
spirited citizen and deserves to be elected.
Give him every Republican vote and get
your Democratic neighbor to vote for him
too. Redford county wants au entire change
of party administration for a few years.
Taxpayers will find it to their interest with
out regard to party.
Tax Payers of Bedford County
Would it not be to your advantage to have
both parties represented in the Comnns
sioner's office? Now is your opportunity.
Vote for the Republican candidate for Com
missioner. One man can not control the
board, but the presence of an intelligent Re
publican might save the taxpayers of the
county many a hard earned dollar. Think
of this and speak of it to your neighbor on
Tuesday next when you go to the polls.
IF wealth is to be made the test of fitness
for office what will become of our country?
Rich men able to buy office have become
the bane of our politics. It is the corrup
tion of men in search of office, and who are
rich enough. to bribe;others, that has brought
bribing and corruption into every State leg
islature in the country without regard to
politics. Will the people encourage this
sort of thing by voting for Asa Packer, who
has nothing but his $20,000,000 to recom
mend him ? Never!
WHAT HAS BECOME OF IT?
The copperhead administration have been
collecting a building tax for two years to pay
for the new poor house. What has been
done with the TEN OR FIFTEEN THOUSAND
DOLLARS thus collected. Who holds the
purse? Is there any speculation on foot?
Does anybody get 10, 15 or 20 per cent, in
terest for that money. Some tax-payers
would like to know.
BONDS! BONDS!
Thrifty farmer or tradesman, have you in
vested the savings of years of hard toil in a
government bond, a Seven-Thirty or a Five-
Twenty? If you have, a vote for Packer or
any other copperhead, will be a vote for its
repudiation. Do you wish thus to throw
away your savings? There is no security but
to vote the whole Republican ticket.
SETTLE UP OLD SCORES.
There arc a good many things that need
probing in the management of our county
finances. Our candidate for Auditor is just
the man for this business. John P. Wil
liams ought by all means to be elected. He
might do much for the tax-pavers of Bed
ford county by looking into the disposition
of the public funds for some years past.
VOTE EARLY.
Go to the polls early. Vote at once.
Then see that your neighbor votes. If put
off until afternoon or evening something
may occur to prevent your getting to the
polls at all.
FRESHET IN PHILADELPHIA. —After a
long period of drought, in which the city
suffered from want of water, it has at last
got an abundance on Saturday night and
Sanday. What was here but a moderate
rain, was a severe storm in Philadelphia, io
which rain fell in torrents, causing the near
ly dried up Schuykill to swell to a flood and
overflow its banks, submerge portions
of Race, Vine and Callowhill streets. The
flood on the Schuykill is reported the most
destructive since 1850. Floods are also re
ported in Baltimore and Washington doing
much damage.
SOLDIERS
When you go to the polls remember that
our candidates for the Legislature, Lieut.
J. H. Longenecker and ('apt. F. B. Long,
were your companions in arms and well de
serve vour hearty support. You are fight
ing the same enemy now on a different field.
Vote for the men who risked their lives for
the Union.
THE well known tendency ot the rich to
oppress the poor will be greatly increased if
such men as Asa Packer, with his $20,000,-
000 dollars is elected Governor. Patriot
ism, not wealth, should be the test of merit
in a public officer Geary is poor but he serv
ed his country faithfully in two wars and
well deserves to be re elected Governor.
REPUBLICS aim to ameliorate the con
dition of the poor; the rich everywhere can
take care of themselves. If such men as
Asa Packer, having money without patriot
ism, are to be placed in power, our Repub
lican institutions will soon be wrecked and
we will be ruled by a set of Aristocrats, tte
worst kind of tyrants. Vote for Geary aivl
Williams.
THE POOR HOUSE
The reckless and extravagant manage
ment of the Poor House affairs, call loudly
tor a change in that department. On Tues
day our citizens can inaugurate that change
by defeating the Democratic candidate for
Director.
A NEW ADMINISTRATION.
The friends of a new order of things in
county affairs, will do well to vote for Wil
liam Phillips for county Treasurer. He is
a sturdy farmer, a good honest man, and
will take good care of the county's funds.
Try him and you will not regret it.
THE downfall of every Republic in past
ages has dated from the time when rich
men obtained control of the offices. De
mocracy wishes to begin our downward
course by electing Packer the millionaire.
Let Packer and Democracy receive a wither
ing rebuke in the ignominious defeat of their
purse proud candidate.
BUSINESS MEN
You have a deep interest in the keeping
of the public records. The condition and
management of the Prothonatory's office
call loudly for a change. Vote for J. W.
Lingenfelter and try what good will come of
a uew administration.
BRING OUT THE VOTES
See that every Republican voter ja
brought out on Tuesday. Let there be no
laggards. Victory may depend on a single
vote. IF voters are not at the polls in good
time see that they are sent for.
PACKER is a rampant free trader and
would have the laboring man's wages re
duced to the rate of European paupers in
order that his already immense wealth might
be increased. Vote for Geary, good wages
and protection to American industry.
A GOOD CORONER
No man in the county is better fitted to
fill the duties of this office than Dr. A. S.
Smith our candidate. Let him have a full
vote.
TAX PAYER, can you vote for Packer
when you remember that by his dishonesty
in defrauding the revenue out of $32,000 a
a year, your own taxes were proportionately
increased ? Vote for Geary.
GOLD closed in New York, on Monday,
at $1.29]. The gold excitement of two
weeks ago seems to have permanently re
duced the price of gold. We hope it has
also permanently reduced the number of
gold gamblers.
Do you prefer Packer, the purse-proud
aristocrat, the bloated-bondholder, the rail
road monopolist and the rebel sympathizer
or Geary the poor but honest man, the
brave soldier of two wars ? Answer at tie
polls.
T.OOK out fur spurious tickets they will
be plenty and every effort will be made to
get you to split your ticket. Listen to no
such persuasion but get your ticket from a
good Republican and vote the whole ticket.
SOLDIER, can you vote for Packer and
Pershing, when you remember that they
voted against allowing you the privilege of
voting when you were fighting the battles of
your country ?
VOTE THE WHOLE TICKET.
Dont allow yourself to be persuaded to
vote for a single man on the Copperhead
ticket. Don't scratch a single man. We
want every man elected.
WllAT could be more humiliating to the
people of Pennsylvania than to have it said
that her Governorship was bought with
Packer's gold. Vote for Geary the Soldier
and Statesman.

New Seven Per Cent.
Thirty Year Gold Loan, Free from Tax.
This Loan amounts to $0,500,000.

In addition to this the Bonds are also secured by
a first mortgage of the
Government Land Grant of Three Mil
lion Acres,

the track, from the 394 th mile post in Kansas to
Denver. The proceeds of the sale of these lands
are to be invested by the Trustees in the 7 per
cent Bonds themselves up to 120 or in U.S. bonds,
as
A Sinking Fund for the Redemption of the
Bonds.
The lands embrace some of the finest portions
of the magnificent Territory of Colorado, inclu
ding a coal field and pinery. The company also
holds as an asset another tract of
Three Millions of Acres in the Slate of
Kansas,
and although not pledged as a security for this
Loan, their possession adds largely to the Com
pany's wealth and credit. We estimate the
Value of the Company's property, covered

while the Loan is merely
$0,500,000.

They are happy to give the Loan an emphatic
endorsement as a
First Class Investment,

tial even
Better than Government Securities.
The Bonds will be sold for the present at
96, and accrued Interest, both in Currency,

well-secured bonds, which we recommend aa one
