Ever slnco tho defeat of soinnnf tlm
Democratic nominees Inst full, In Co.
luiublrt county, by n union of volunteer
candidates with tlio leading Radicals of
mo county, u has been said that the
combination was not moroly n tempo
rary arrangement but was to bo ierinn
nont, so far ns tho leaders wcro concern
el. Tlio tono of Radical leaders sluco
that time, with other Incidents, con.
firmed this vlow. Previous to our del.
egato elections It was onenlv asserted
that a portion of tho candidates for tho
. Democratic nominations had secretly
tnado arrangements to run as volunteers
If not nominated, although all had
pledged their honor to ubldo bv tho do.
cUion of tho Convention. Events slneo
tho nominations provo tho correctness
or tlm previous rumors. Although the
Democratic pcoplo aro well pleased and
tuitlflfied with tho iinnilmtllon!i, greedy
olllco hunters and Radical leaders arc
not. Tho very men named before the
dolcgato elections ns bcitis in this con
Rplracy oro now nnnounclntr themsclvos
ns volunteer candidates, and It Is said a
inn ucKct of them Is to bo presented,
aiinougii tney oven resort to fraudu
lent means to hldo tho fact, all the
schemes of theso men aro concocted and
put Into shape by tho Radical leaders
nnu their pronunciamculoes aro printed
in tho Jlepublican olllco. Lest tho char
acter of their associations should tell
tlio talo upon them, their printed circu
lars bear tho Imprlntof " Local Adver.
User." That sheet is a monthly adver.
user, tho paper for which nlrondv
printed on ono sido Is purchased In Now
York.and tho rest of It Is printed In tho
Jtepublican otllco at this place. Tho
publishers of tho Advertiser havo no
printing ofllco, and tho imprint to these
volunteer-radical essays Is thereforo a
falsehood ami n fraud, a make-bellovo
that tho printing Is not dono nt tho
Radical office, while- In fact every word
01 mem is printed thero.
We last week fully explained tho no
Hitloti of tho Locust delegates, showing
tnnt tneir votes wero regular and au
thorlzcd, and therefore nothing further
need bo nam on that subject.
Tlio Pino delegates aro nlso attneked
Ono was instructed for Evekitt and
voted for him. Tho other was not In
structed at all, as only a fragment of
tnoso who elected him voted instruc
tions for Treasurer, and thoso wcro a
tie. As It Is admitted by every ono
that tho voters of tho district wero
about equally divided between tho can
didates, It was fair and proper that each
should recelvo. ono voto from tho two
delegates.
If tho nominees of tho party aro to
oo constantly aoreatod, Domocrata may
as woll glvo up their organization and
quit holding conventions. In fact thero
is no other modo than holding nominat
ing conventions by which a party can
bo hold togothor and'unitcd, and if not
united it can nover bo successful. Its
very llfo depends upon union and har
mony, and whoovor strikes at its organ
ization strikes to kill. Wo havo no fear
that any amount of disorganization
that can bo mustered in Columbia coun
ty can accomplish this result. Tho suc
cess or tho volunteer candidates last
fall wa3 owing to very pocullar causes
that do not exist now, and when elec
tion day comes wo bellovo tho Demo
cratic party of tho county will bo found
united and determined. They aro too
honest to bo corrupted and too intelli
gent to bo hood-winked or led by the
llttlo bevy ot Radical office-holders in
BloomBburg, oven though the latter aro
assisted by volunteers who In their
greed for ofllco violate pledges publicly
and voluntarily made.
Itadlcal Trick;.
It would bo a "sweet" thing for tho
Radicals if they could Bucceed in in
ducing Democratic volunteers to enter
tho Hold as candidates where nominees
of their own party would stand no
chanco. To divldo the Democracy
would bo a great point gained for them
and volunteers would servo Radical
purposes as well as candidates of their
own. Thoy cannot elect either, and
they would much rather seo their Dem
ocratic tools sacrificed than that their
own men should suffer defeat. In fact
If the Radicals succeed In Inducing vol
unteers to become candidates for them,
they will trado them off afterwards
whenever opportunity offers. Volun
teer candidates aro wanted by them
only for trading purposes und to keep
Democratic voters away from tlio polls.
That Is an old trick In politics that has
been practiced too often to bo successful
again, lleware of Radical schemes if
they succeed In Inducing Democrats to
voto for volunteers thoy will laugh lu
their slcovos at their success In (lupine
thoso who aid them by voting for their
candidates. They already boast that
they aro making or will raakoa break
in tho "I-ushlngcreek confederacv."
Let theso "confederates" look to it that
their ranks aro not broken by tho ene
mles who persecuted and constantly
libel them I
Boltcn.
At this time, when some ambitious
gentlemen threaten to opposo a portion
or tho county ticket, it may bo well to
call attention to tho following extracts
from tho rules governing tho party In
Columbia county, to wit :
XVII. No person shall bo ollglblo to
a nomination by a Convention who has
opposed tho Democratic ticket nt tho
noxtp.ccfdlngel 3tion.
XVII. It shall bo a cood causo of
challenge against any persoa offering
to voto nt any delegato elections that ho
has voted against Democratic candi
dates at aFedcral or h'tatoolcctlon with
in two years, or has opposed tho Demo
cratlc ticket at tho lost p.cccdlng dec
tlon. Mon who will not ubldo by tho deci
sions of a convention cortalnly should
havo no volco In controlling It, and
thero Is no doubt but that tho abovo
rules will bo rigidly enforced hereafter.
It may as well bo understood at onco
that wo do not print In tho political In
terest of Radicals, and that thereforo
their candidates need not apply hero
for anything that will assist them In
their attempts to Injuro tho Democratic
party. Although this notice Is Intend
ed especially for candidates brought out
by our Radical frlonds, every body else
may as won read it.
Colfax is again on tho war path In

That party Is nhvays most successful
and In fact most, deserves public conll
down, which It most careful In nriklmi

Willi urentest uiirtiilliilly. U Is dear Id
everybody that no party, no noddy
no combination of Individuals to no
eompllsh particular ends, can long re
main powerful unless complete unity o
action h maintained. Tho highest
authority expressly declares that
house divided against Itself can not
stand." Prtidcnco, wisdom nnd neccs-
slty, comblno to rcqulro that parties
which seek to govern tho country
should maintain unity In their own
ranks. If thoy do iot, they will soon
destroy themselves and becomo tho
prey of tho common foo. Who docs
not distinctly see, therefore, that who
over opposes a regular nomination
strikes at tho very foundation ami
strength of Ills parly weakens dis
heartens and defeats tho very men who
uphold his own cause'. livery body
knows that union, harmony nnd good
will alono glvo strength and lend to
success. If wo would establish Porno-
cratlc principles, therefore, lot tw nil
iiullo In siHlalnlng tho iionilnalloni of
tho parly.
The HroUn l'lcdgc.
Tho volunteer candidates aro whining
about tho county that wo refuso to print
for them. True and why V" Week after
week for months beforo tho delegate
elections wcro held each nnd every ono
of them had his naino published In tho
CoiAJMntAN, and paid in ndvanco togct
It there, In a list headed by tho follow
lng pledge, to wit:
ITho following persons havo been
named for nomination by tho next Dem
ocratlc County Convention. All who
uro announced lu this list aro pledged
toamuo oy tlio decision or tlio Demo
cratlc Convention.
This pledge, voluntarily, and solemn
ly, from week to week given to tho
public over their own names, Is as firmly
binding upon tho conscience and honor
of tho candidates and their friends as
any obligation It isposslbloforahuraan
being to assume. Wo aro asked to as
sist In violating It, nnd of eourso wo
comoraptously refuso tho proffered dls
honor und spurn It ns an Insult.
Theso volunteers Join hand In hand
with tho Radical leaders In nn attempt
to break up tho Democratic party. In
this attempt they will get no aid from
us wo do not print In tho political in
terest of tho Radicals wo cannot assist
men In violating pledges wo support
tho Democratic parly in all Its Interests.
The Slate lVnr Claim liohliery.
Thero aro some queer statements
about tho defalcation orClEo. Q.Evans,
Stato war claim agent. Ho has paid u
portion of tho monoy Into tho Treasury
slnco tho exposure leaving a balanco
still duo of near $300,000. It is stated
that tho claims In question had been
"disallowed and suspended" by tho
accounting officers or the Federal gov
ernment In other words had been re
jected as bogus and that to obtain pay
ment bribery had to bo resorted to. As
this is n very common way, under Rad
ical rule, to filch money from tho Stato
and Federal treasuries, wo aro ready to
bolievo tho statement. But In any caso
let tho whole subject bo thoroughly
vindicated and tho guilty at least ex
posed. Tho Auditor General and Stato Treas
urer havo directed Evass to pay all his
collections into tho Treasury, but ho
declines to do It. Prosecution Is threaten-
cd but not yet instituted. It is doubted
whether an action against the delin
quent agent for embezzlement could bo
maintained. Hirbond Is for only $10-
000, nnd this Is all that can be collected
from him. Gov. Geary was certainly
culpably negligent in accepting a bond
for feo small an amount, and this fact
gives force to the suspicion that he was
Interested in the whole profits of thejob.
Certainly his Attorney General Is very
remiss In not promptly arresting the de
faulter. Tho conviction is general in Harris-
burg, that a largo portion ofthoplun-
uer or evaxs has passed out of his
hands Into those of u band of men who
procured his appointment, andcanuot
be refunded. This Is likely true. Evans
is only the tool of worso men in this
State men who are now preaching
morality and leading tho Radical party.
Theso are tho men wo whh to seo un
earthed, and thoy will be, If Attorney
General BitEWSTEit does his duty. No
matter whom tho axo may strike, let it
fall. It is bo common, however, for
Radical officials to steal that an expos
ure (Joes not causo surprise. For years
tho Radicals havo had somo mysterious
ways of raising funds to sustain their
newspapers and carry on olectlons. Is
this ono or tho ways'.'

But tho Radicals do not stop with tho
nupremo uourt; all tho Federal courts
aro prostituted to partisan ends. Tho
manner of summonlnc tho lurnrs f.ir
tho district courts Is for tho Radical
Marshal to select out such men of his
party as ho chooses In each county und
to summon them us Jurors. Of courso
mi aro rcct not partisans. When tho
court assembles its prosccutlmr officers
aro surrounded by gangs of pimps, who
compromiso cases, or liavo them com.
promised, for a consideration, and notl
lng can bo effected except through theso
low whelps. Coming to trial n defend
ant In rovonuo caics slauds no chanco
uttdl for acquittal, for tho law Is buch
that It Is Imposslblo for any human bo-
lng to comply with ovory construction
that may bo put upon It, nnd as all Buch
eases aro regarded as political and tho
juries aro partisan, of courso conviction
is tno only possible result, however
honest and law abiding tho dolondant
may havo been. For thus prostituting
tho courts tho Radicals aro responsible,
and as long as they continuo in power
"in gross uouso will exist.

Ili'iuoi'iMtle Standing (Aimmlltpe.
A meeting of tho Democratic Stand
ng Committee was held at tho Court
House on Saturday last, in pursuanco
of n resolution of tho county conven
tlon. A permanent organization was
effected by tho election of 0. G. Bauk
ley, Esq., of Illoomsburg as chairman,
and It, J, JIlLLAitn, Eri.. of Scott
township, as Secretary.
Hudson' 0vr.N was, by resolution,
made a number of the commltteo from
Berwick, where tho Democrats had
failed to elect at tho proper time. After
somo consultation concerning tho work
of tho committee, an adjourned meet
ing was ordered to bo held in Blooms-
burg, nt tho olllco of tho chairman, on
Wednesday tho Cth of September, at 1
o'clock, v, m. It Is hoped that every
member will then attend punctually.
The War In ('area,
Further victories havo been gained in
Corca by tho U. S. forces. A number
of forts havo been captured nnd many
Coreans havo been killed. But no im
pression seems to liavo been mado upon
the authorities of tho country. When
tho American Admiral Inquired of
them what ho should do with his pris
oners, thoy coolly replied that hoshould
do with them what ho pleased. Tho
fact is tho country Is ovorpopulatcd,
llttlo If any valuo Is placed upon life,
and tho wholo nfr.ilrsccms to bo regard
ed by tho authorities as an excellent op
portunity of getting rid of a portion of
tho population. As the country is too
far off to bo annexed or occupied, as tho
pcoplo seem to have nothing that wo
want nnd us they aro carclcs3 of tho
destruction of life, It is difficult to see
what is to bo gained by continuing tlio
war.
Colonel Slaiitou-A Stolen Title!
Tho Radical papers persist in calling
Surgeon Stanton', tiieir candidato for
udItorGcneral, Colonel! Ho certainly
never hold a Colonel's commission ho
was never in a battle never in sight of
an enemy, unless when prisoner. True,
ho drew tho pay of a Colonel, whilo
acting as contract Surgeon during tho
war, but that does not confer even tho
honorary tltlo upon him. Ho may
have marshalled regiments -of pill
boxes and battalions of calomel with
dexterity for what wo know, but thero
no iuch ofllco as Colonel of physic or
emetics In tho army. Certain it is lie
was never a flyhting Colonel, and If ho
has laurels ho won them by tho chival
rous use of pills and calomel and not by
the sword. If tho Radicals will persist
n claiming military honors for him,
et them tell tho public where and
when ho performed military services.
It was published a short tlmo ago

appeared, de-cribed her clothing and

Tho soldiers nnd tho worklngmon of
Pennsylvania cannot fall to make n
distinction between tho candidates or
tho two political parties nt tho coming
Slate election In Pennsylvania.
Tho Republican candidato fur Audi
tor General Is a man who never had
nny connection with or sympathy for
the tolling mnoscs. Going into the
nrmy ns a country doctor ho was soon
elovntcd to tho lucrative position of
Medical Director, not on account of nny
superior fitness, but because ho happen
ed to bo a rclntlvo of tho Secretary of
War, li. M. Stanton, He had an easy
tlmo serving his country, got big pay,
but never smelt powder or received u
wound. Ho was nominated simply he
causo tho corrupt Treasury Ring want
ed a willing tool In tho Auditor-General's
olllco. Quay looked over tho list
of Simon Cameron's satellites and pick
ed upon Dr. Stanton, Tho order was
Issued to thoso who pet up delegates in
tlio dllt'eroiit counties, nnd tho nominat
ing of tho creature of tlio Ring was Bot
tled In ndvanco of tho meeting of tho
Convention.
Tho Democratic candidato for Audit
or General Is ono of tho most hklllfiil
mechanics In tho Stato. When ho
worked ns a machinist ho acknowledg
ed no superior lu his business. When
ho studied law ho displayed tho snmo
energy which distinguished him when
ho wielded tlio hammer. When tho
war came, ho entered tho nrmv not to
seek Tor an easy berth, but to light with
all his might as ho had labored ut tho
bench and tlio large. Jii nil tho glor
ious roll ol tho gallant Pennsylvania
iicsorvo corns, inoro is no namo wiucn
shines brighter than that or General
William McCandless.
Tho soldiers nnd tho worklngmen of
Pennsylvania must bo ullko attached
by tno nnieceiieuts oi iho Democratic
candidato for Auditor General. They
cannot conscientiously voto for thoercu-
turo oi tno corrupt Treasury Ring.

The Collection nr Taxes.
Tlio records show that over eighty
thousand men uro employed in (lie col
lection ol tno inconio tax. They aro
chosen, not on account of their fitness
for tho position they aro called upon to
uu, out soieiy on account oi tneir poli
tical relations to somo Itadlcal Congress
man or other officials. Many of them
aro destitute of business talent, not u
row lack honesty, nnd multitudes of
inem nro inero numnicrs and brawling
pot-houso politicians, 'i'o keep up this
x'ust army of inefficient officials costs
tho pcoplo many millions of dollars
every year, in ono way and another.
Tho Jtox'onuo Department lias been con-
X'crtcd into an nsyluni, whero many oT
tlio worst men belonging to the itadlcal
party nro pensioned oil' nnd supported
ut tho public expense. Tho musses of
that party cannot ho so completely
blinded by piejudleo ns not to seo tho
ovlls whlch'exlst, and wo uro euro that
thousands of them would gladly voto
to remedy tho abuses which ull'oct nil
classes ol' tho community alike.
Iu our Judgment tho best and tho
cheapest way to collect tho taxes which
aro necessary to support tho general
government, would bo to apportion tho
amount among tho several Slates, ac
cording to their ability to pay, and to
lenvo eacn otnto to collect inoumouni
thus levied upon it from such sources
and In such n way as Its authorities
might deem proper. Tho snnif officials
who collect tho Stato and County tuxes
could collect all taxes levied lor tho
general government, nnd tho whole
army of federal oillclals might bo thus
dispensed with. Tlio States being ro.
sponsible, would hold tho county olll
eials to a stiictaceouulubility, ami they
would exercise u Ilko restraint over
their subordinates. Tho peonlo would
chooso tho men who would gather tho
lax irom tnem, and tney would select
honest and eapablo persons. The Leg
islature of oaeh Htnto could apportion
tlio taxes in a moro equltablo manner
than Congress does, and the wholo sys
tcm being brought underthoiminedlato
vlow and control of tho people, would
bo wistly simplified, improved, ifhd
cheapened.
Ono of tho greatest curses of this
country Is tho Increase of Federal olllco
holders which has taken plaeo since tho
Radicals obtained control of tho general
government, This garden must now bo
