Ilul nothing- can bo moro certain than

'Ihe State Contest.
Tho present State eontcst,remarks tbo

people, when viowed from tho rb.'ht
standpoint. Eor i-omo years, a "Ring "
of cot rupl , desperate politicians, beaded
by Senator Cameron, havo managed to
control tho Stuto Tio.i-.ttry by means of
tho nomination and election of a Statu
Treasurer. There was ono break In thu
lino of succession, but that was unim
portant as to tho great chain ol improp
er successes achieved by thu Caincro.i
Interest or Iho Commonwealth. Hav
ing ciinlrolof thoTi'ca ury, tbo " Ring"

to enrich a few personal friends by long

1 made a plain and correct statement
In your paper of July 21st, 1871, In re
gard to my trouble with rovonuo officers
and Informers. In the Cutumfta Ooun
ly Jtvpubllcan of tiio week following ap-
pta redan article from RtcitAnn Stile i
of Ronton, In nply lo my Bt,vtcmcnl, in
Which ho tries to excuso himself und
others, but wllh very poor succo-:s,
SrjLES innkci professions of church
leadership and It hurls him to havo hi I
conduct exposed ; so ho tries to smooth
over and cover up his malicious lets
agnlnst mo as well as hocan. Rut usho
knows that my statement Is true nnd
that tbo whole neighborhood whero ho
lives knows It to bo so, ho Is forced Into
slang mid blackguardism In bis answer
and Into soino weak attempts to twist
tho facta.
Ho does not and bo cannot deny that
I was wronged out of a largo amount of
money on account or his falso Assess
ment ; but hlsxciHO for not coming to
my nouso to iv-so-s mo is timt KNonr.
told him tiiat I donled stilling. Was
that anyexctiso fortS-riLm in making
a falso and unjust n?ses'-mont? Hut 1
never denied stilling toKxoituor any
ono eloo, and no rovenuo olllccr was
over misled by me, I deulcd stilling
the full term of my license, nnd I deny
that now. Why then did not Stiles
come to my place and seo for himself V
My diotllloiy was In 110 secret place, but
by the public mail 11 miles only from
where Stiles lived. I hauled my chop
from Coles' mills through tho town of
Benton, and ovcry porou in the neigh
borhood know that I was stilling.
Every thing was carried on openly.
But Spiles, It seems, br.d to go lo
Hloomshurg to seo Knouh on tho ques
tion whether I wart Milling or not and
ho the n-slstanl Assrssor til tho time!
Wo need lu.t wonder if lids is trim that
the (iovi rnniont turned such a man out
of olllce 1 But if ho believed that 1 bad
not distilled ho had 110 business to as
sess me, aud if ho knew I had it was
his business to assess mo at homo nnd
accoidlng to tho truth, uud not go lo
Bloowsburg and mako up a bogus or
falso asse-sment. But you seo by UiIj
proceeding ho could fix things up to
suit himself. The bloodhounds Intend
ed to take from mo every thin;' I bad,
and boasts wero mado moro than onco
that I should not havo a foot of land
left, by tho tlmo they wero dono witli
mo. But 1 can say I havo somo land
left, though without tiny thanks to
Stiles. I own It without having bail
n government, olllco to oppre.-s my
neighbors.
Stiles, after tailing In part in bis
evil designs, tries to play innocent. He
i.ays he only wauled to live up to tho
law, and denies getting nny of the
money extorted from me. But I was
told by a high officer that ho, Simles,
was tho informer and would get one-
half (ho whiskey money. If tbo gov
ernment stopped down on him and dis
appointed him of ids expected share, It
wasjunt. But wo havo only his word
for that.
But ho only wanted to Ilvo up to tho
law! Now if ho nnd tbo other officers
lived up to tho law as strictly as they
pretend, why was I asked In making
my settlement to sign a writing that I
would not prosecute any of tho officers
for any damage tliey had dono mo? I
think tho meaning of that is very plain.
If they had not violated any law, or
d iuo any wrong, thcro was no need
that they should ask mo to release them;
but a man like Still. who swears ho
can see a three Inch letter sign on a dis
tillery, six or eight hundred yards nil",
is capable of saying almost nny thing
without hurling bis conscience or char-
icter.
lie has something to say In bis article
about niggers and Black Republicans,
I bad not said anything about either in
my statement ; bull will now say to
him that T lespcet dieent Republicans
and havo nothing ugaltisl tbo negro in
bis proper place; the whllo niggers nro
tho (hus 1 despise. And I think it m m
deserves tint name to boappllo I to him
wlio hunts after an ollleor so that ho can
feather his own nest and Injiiro his
neighbors, Stiles tried to get olllco
In tho Democratic' party nud failed.
I lo then tried the Republicans who did
not trust him, but Anally on grounds of
sympithy ho got a small appointment
from which hu was turned out after
wards. That Is tlio man who now tries
to (pliet his guilty conscience) by abus

On the lht'n of August, ri quest was

presume Is intended to be an argument
lu support of somo of his assertions. His
argument has been frequently advanced
mil as frequently refuted : It docs not
need to bo again demolished.
Mr. Orvls Is said to have been a law
yor. It that tie true, no Knows tlio nil-
feieuco betwiMi an " authority " and
mero oblhr dictum, and that tbo latter
will not answer for the former. So, Mr,
Ouvis being a lawyer, refuses to sup
port bis fluid proposition by giving his
"authority " for making It; because,
b.iug a " negative proposition," ho
duds it convenient to escape behind tlio
purely bntal ik-foiiM) that inert) denial
Is BUllk'lent. That Is Ingenious nnd
lawyer like, but Is It fair'.' It was sup
posed that assertions so positively mado

wuuld bo stlpporlo l by some show of

beg to my that tho expectation has not

Tho Montour American objects to tho
election of Kiikn d. Scott as President
Judgo of that district because of nllodg
ed want of sufficient practice at tlio bar.
Tho objection Itself Is without f jico,an(l
when n main cause of It Is to bo found
In tho fact that Mr. Scott left his legit
imate business to battlo In tho Union
army, in placo of such mon ns his as
iiailaht, who staid at homo, loyal gon-
tlcmen should not find fault.
When Chief Jtislico Giihon was first
appointed to tho bench tho samo ob
jection was urged against him, ybt
110 iiecamo the moat distinguished of
tho bright galaxy of Pennsylvania
Judges whoso opinions aro quoted
wherever law Is known. Ontso.v nover
conduclcd n causo In court, yet thcro la
not a lawyer In Pennsylvania who does
not regard his Judicial opinions with
reverence. Judgo Stohy was appoint
ed to tlio bench of tho Supremo Court
or tlio United States when only twenty
six years or age, nnd ho adorned oven
that bench of great Judges' lu both
these cases Ibo appointing powers kuow
tho learning and ability of tho man
they appointed, and thoao wlso men
did not consider thut experlcnco in tbo
trial of petty criminals and spiteful law
suits was such legal learning as gavo
qualifications to a Judge. If tho Mon
tour American had then exlstod to en
lighten them, the State and tho Nation
would havo lost two of its brightest Ju
dicial btars, nnd tho legal profession will
thank kind fortuno that It did not pro-
eluco this modern lumluary until ufter
Oinso.v mid SroitY had tilled their
libraries with tho most profound and
thorough expositions of tho principle?
of law.
Thero Is, however, a solid objection to
Mr. Rocicaeellei:, the Republican
opponent of Mr. St'OTr. Personally wo
know nothing about him, but his sup
ported say ho has a very largo practico
in U10 district. If so, hisclcctlon would
imposo upon tho district a heavy ox
peuso and most grievous burthen. Wo
know lawyers will say otherwise, but
wo speak from a long experience in
another district. Not only I.s tho trial
of causes disarranged and tediously
postponed, but tho expenses of trial aro
greatly Increased. Tho Judges from
other districts who aro called to try tho
cases in which tho tilting Judgo wits
counsel fall to nttond very frequently
and often wn not bo obtained. Wo
havo known parties enough to ba ready
tor trial, with all their numerous wit
nesses, to keep a com t employed Tor n
full week, yet after appearing at tho
county seat and perhaps waiting n day
or two, would bo Informed that tho
Judgo was not coming and thereforo
their cases must go over. AH tho ox-
pcuso of tho attending jurors, &o. would
of courso havo to bo paid by the county.
Both county and parties to suita aro
thereby heavily taxed, and tho incon
venience's of tho latter aro most voxa-
tious. Tho delays occasioned by this
causo aro not tho least evils to bo con
sidered. In tho caso wo refer to Judtro
Linn, in tho Clinton district somo or
his causes did not roach a trial during Ills
wholo term on tho bench, although tho
parties wero generally at Court and
constantly expecting nnd urging trial.
This is asamplo of tho effect or electing
a lawyer in largo practico to tho Judg
shlp or the district Mn which ho prac
tices.
Wo aro woll awaro that somo lawyers
will recklessly dlsputo this, and uono
will thank us ror staling tho fact, Tor
they are always anxious to get tho law
yer or tho largest practico on the bench.
It takes liimoutorthelr way and makes
more business tor them. But wo havo
given the result or our cxpcrlenco In a
district whero tho tiling was tried twice.
and to tho facts stated wo uro both a
living and Interested witness. Wosay,
therefore, that tho argument that Mr.
I'tOCKAi-'ELLEit has a largo practice in
his district is a grave and potont roason
why ho should not bo elected, Instead
of being an argument lu his favor.
Lawyers in largu practico very com
monly mako tho poorest, most Ineffi
cient and nearly always most tedious
of Judges. Wo havo been a witness of
Hint fact, loo. The qualifications that
mako a lawyer 11 successful practitioner
al tho bar aro not theso that mako blm
an efficient Juduo. Close habits ofstudy
aud logical thought, Arm nerve and In-
dependeneo of mind, tho capacity to
distinguish right from wrong iutuitlvo-
ly, or to sift Justice out or conflicting or
doubtrul testimony, and exocutivo abil
ity, nro tho leading qualifications desir
ed in a Judge, but theso aro rarely ac
quired by mero Jury lawyers or lawyers:
or largo practico In petty business.
Rather, they uro blunted and lost sight
or. by tho exleiislvo practitioner. An
Intellectual man well read in tbo law
und other scleiiees ni.d practical Infor
mation, possessing tho other qualifica
tions suggested, will nearly always
mako a superior Judge, whllo n mero
successful practitioner Is vory liable to
provo a failure.
