Tho election 13 almost at hand. l)em

Aro you suro that overy Democrat has
mado up his mind to attend tho polls
Do Buro to got every ono out rain or
ahlno, cold or warm bo euro to poll
overy vote I Tho result depends upon
tho turn out. Every Republican will
bo on hand.
Orffflnlzol Organize!
Wo appeal to Democrats In every tlli
trlct to organlzo in somo form, so as to
lio sura to get out every vote. W 0 firm
ly bollevo that If tho full Democratic
votocan bo polled wo will carry tho
Utato that all dopends on this Blnglo
point. Let tho Democrats of Columbia
county do their wholoduty, then what
over may resultj no blaoio will attach
to them. A good plan of organization
is to hold a meeting (oven If only half
a dozen) and appoint commltteos to. seo
each votor and get his promlsa to at
tend tho eloetlon rain or no rain. If
every voto Is not in by tho mlddlo of
tho nftoruoon send far overy ono whoso
attendance Is at all doubtful. Such ac
tion will command victory. Columbia
county is good for 2,000 majority if n
turn out can bo offectod. It Is hoped
ovory Democrat will mako It his busi
ness to seo that overy ono of his party
will bo at tho election.
lloware of Trickery!
Dowaro of f.Uso tickets on tho day of
election! Arrangements will bo mado
to print tickctsin imitationof tho Dem

moro Republicans or their volunteers

Attempts will bo mado to buy up
Democrats nt certain polls to hand out
bogus tickets as thogonulno Democratic
ticket! Keep a cl030 lookout for theso !
All kinds of falso reports will bo cir
culated on the ovo of tho election, and ,
on that day. Keep a sharp oyo on
theso, and boliovo nothing that has
not been publicly stated In time to
bo discussed. Falso and lying hand
bills, oxtitua, papers, Ac. may bo Issued.
Depend upon It that all such things
coming on tho ovo of tho election aro
intended to dccelvo and aro issued at
that iato period so that there will bo no
tlmo or opportunity to e-xposo their
falsehood I
In short, bo prepared for overy species
of trickery and falsehood ! Every hon
est thing that can bo said about tho
election will' bo beforo tho public In

Gen. Cameron ha3 tho thanks of tho

Under tho Radical administration of

To tho Democratror Columbia. Oiunt)'.
Tho ticket nominated by your con
vention Is composed of men who nro
worthy of tho support of any party,
from top to bottom. All nro honest,
all uro capahlo and nil nro slneero and
faithful Democrats. Kveryonoof them
would support any Democrat who was
fairly nominated as they liavo been, or
courtc, Republicans will cavil, una try
to rolfo prejudices-but whatever they
dolsdonuwlth tho solo purpo-to of In

other men for nomination, but If tho
mnjorlty is not to control In party mat

Who will gain by your loss 1 Tho

folly to Bay tho conventions do not ex-
press your will. You elect tho dele
gates and tho responsibility thcroforo
rests with you. If you onco elect un
faithful delegates, tako bettor caro next
tlmo, but let tho Judgment of tho con
vention for tho tlmo bolng stand ns tho
unanimous action of tho wholo party.
That Is tho only way to maintain party
unity, and without union thcro Is no
strength. Jf n minority of tho party
combino with tho Republicans ono

nority may as properly do It another
year, and so on to tho end of time.
What does your strength thcroforo
avail you, under such circumstances?
Just nothing, but to produco corrupt
combinations with your enemy I Rut
a united majority party will always ndd

sought by overy man who desires to
strengthen his party.
As wo havo pointed out before, in

that Rovi) RonisoN Is as woll qualified

asCapt. Bp.ocicway. A man who has
worked himself up as tho latter has, Is
not only deserving of high credit, but
proves tho po3so3sion of thoao elements

tho greatest usefulness. Hut it would
bo folly in us to point out tho various

and against whoso election no serious

Tli? train Villainy !
Under tho pres-uroof publlcdomnnd,
a warrant for tho arrest of tho swindler
Evans was issued, and n Hnrrlsburg
policeman was sent to New York with
a requisition to arrest him, but alter a
day or two spent in that city tho pollco
man returned with tho Information that
thofugltlvo could not bo found 1 It was
a llltlo curious that no effort was after
wards mado to capture Evans, and It
was qullo curious that no reward was
offered lor ills capture.
It turns out aow that Evans has
mado no effort at concealment but
daily walking tho BtreetHof Now York 1
If tho policeman Bent after him did not
seo him it was becauso ho did not want
to I It Is asserted publicly that Evans
boasts that his party does not daro to
arrest him becauso too many of Its olll
cers and prominent men weroconcerntxl
In his fraudulent transactions!
It Is plain thai if Dr. Stanton is
elected Auditor General no further.ef.

Ho says ho lias been gambling In stocks

sunk tho money. Of courso tho people
can mako up this loss by paying taxes
into tho Treasury.
An assistant Postmaster In tho Post
Office of Now York city another prime
Radical also turns up n3 a defaulter to
tho acknowledged nmouut of one hun
dred and ff teen thousand dollars. How
ho sunk this rcspectnhlo amount of pub
lic money does not clearly appear j but
it was probably by speculations, enter
ed upon in order to grow suddenly rich,
in imitation of Grant.
Tho big Evans steal from this Stato
of three hundred thousand dollars, is
another Radical exploit which wo havo
had occasion recently to ventilate and
explain. Evans lias not been arrested
nor is it likely that proper punishment
will ever bo inflicted upun him.
Wo endeavor to keep our readers ad

Woman Kiiirrntjc.
It has b;cn contended by many that
a strict construction of tho 1 Ithnnd 15th
amendments to tho constitution of the
United States actually conferred tho
right ofsufl'rago upon women. If so, of
courso no law of tho Legislature or Con
gross can tako away tho right, if tho
validity of tho amendments bo admit
ted. Wo seo It stated that tho question
lstobotc3led in Philadelphia at this
election, somo women having applied
for registration nnd who will infer to
voto. In this connection wo also seo It
stated that Judgo Underwood, United
States district Judgo for Virginia, has
written a letter In which ho says lie
feels very confident that tho fourteenth
nnd fifteenth amendments of tho United
States Constitution, together with tho
enforcement act of May 01, 1S71, havo
secured tho right to voto to femalo citi
zens as fully as it is now exercised and
enjoyed by malo citizens. Ahem !
won't tlicro bo somo extra Iovo making

This Is a beautiful exhibition of tho
recklessness of Radical legislation ! It
would not bo surprising if it wcro soon
decided that nobody but negroes had a

want of prlnclplo as well as consistency
in tho Radical ring. Whatever their
Democratic fellow-cltl.ons do or pro
poso to do Is ail wrong, but whatovor
they opposo Is nil right! That logic
may do amongst pnoplo controlled solo
ly by prejudice but cm novor bo ap
proved by common seiuo people.
Wiiat Is tho gro.il anxiety oi .ur.
rjiiivu to ho county Commissioner, that
nduccs him to onduwor to forco him
self upon tho people when thoy bo pal
pably don't want him ? A majority or
tho Democrats in Rlooimburg voted
against him nt tho tlolegato election.
Only eleven delegate) voted ror him in
convention, nnd not ono of theso will
Hitpport him nt tlio election. Tho honor
of holding tbo iifllco Is not suiuclent to
account for ills anxiety and thoro is no
profit In tho salary paid. What hidden
oiject, then, prompts him to endeavor
to force himself upon an unwilling
public? Hu promised tonbi.loby the
decision of tlio convention, yet ho not
only treats that promise ns worthle-s
but Is doing whatever ho can to be
elected himself In direct opposition to
tho almost unanimous decision of the
convention! When a man goes so far
ns till-", It Is fair and prudent to infer
that ho has somo ulterior object to af
fect in obtaining office something that
he Is unwilling to tell tho public some
thing Improper, unfair or unpopular.
William SiiArnn: was fairly nom
inated for Commissioner on tho llrst
ballot, is a worthy man, and is entitled
to tho support of overy Democrat. In
fact ho ought to bo supported by all
those who nro opposed to tho town of
ltloomsburg exercising unduo influence,
about which somo peoplo talk so freely,
nnd which forms tho principal stock iu
trade of tho iladlcal " ring."
The correspondent of tlio Republican
who signs himself " laborer has a hap

than flvo will now. Tho wagc3 of ono
day's labor In each wcok will not pay
all tho direct and indirect taxes which
Iladlcal legislation has imposed upon
each citizen. "Two dollars n day and
roast beef was a motto of tho old
Whig party in 1810, and was 11 pleco of
humbug never resorted to by tho De
mocracy. No great or small "light of
Democracy " aver " preached that ten
cents a day was enough for laboring
men," and tho slander resembling this
was dropped thirty years ago, iu it was
too cH'oclu illy pxposed for even block
heads to bellovo it. To linposo tho
burdens of tho country as far as possl

Thus, tho thousands of millions of gov

illi'V any political or puiwm.il enemy
to bring n truthful ehntgo of improper
official action against uny ono of them.
It will bo observed that us soon ns wo
tako tho Republican up oil ono falso
statement it immediately drops it and
makes another. It Is nn old trick of
liars whenever caught in ono falsehood
to tell another, and thus constantly at
tract attention to now points nnd Btop
investigation. Is this tho theory upon
which tho J'epublicun proceeds and vo
lies? It's last issuo looks very much
ns though that was Its plan of action
Tin: Republican boasts that "there is
nothing more sati'fuetori than the eomphle
harmony that c.xhts in the J'epulliaati ranks
in this countu." Tho boast we bellovo to
bo well founded. Rut when tlio Demo
crats seo their political enemy united ns
ojicoiroi, will they not unite too? Wo
know there is but littlo division now in
our ranks, but do not tho few who uro
still disposed to support volunteers seo
tho necessity of uniting nud presenting
a SOLID FRONT 1 Can it bo that Dem
ocrats who hear tho boasts of tho Re
publican leaders that they are tho
roughly united nnd therefore hopo to
gain, will not throwaway personal feci
inganduuito too? What would nny
body think of nn army that would per
sist in division when in tho faco of
united enemy? In politics nnd nt elec
tions union is Just as Important and
thoroughly united party rarely sustains
loss and defeat.
Tho boast of tho Republican is a bold
0110 and shows Its confidence in n gain
toils parly becauso of its thoroug
union. L5t Democrats profit by tho lea
(.on 1
The Republican complains that wo
did not dojusticoto tho military record
of Mr. James Rovk Roiiison, but does
littlo if nny better itself. Certainly wo
had 110 design todepreeiato his military
glory and honor wo only spoko of our
own ignoraiico of any extraordinary
military exploits of Jits wo said ho
may have killed more rebels than nil
tho rest of tho army and wo now say ho
may bo entitled to moro glory than
(1 rant himself only wo are ignorant
and Rates' history does not enlighten
us 1 A man may bo properly censured
for culpable ignoraiico but when history
falls to Inform him is it fair to condemn
him for his want of knowledge? Yet,
with all is pretentious fuss, wo siupect
wo know as much about tho matter in
question as tlio Republican. At any
rato Mr. Roiuson Is not going to tho
Legislature this fall.
The attempt of certain Republicans
at their recent convention iu this conn
ty to crowd out tho office-holders'
ring" nnd prevent It from handling
and pocketing the electioneering fund
furnished by government stealinas.was
fuuny but highly successful I Aiihott
triumphed over tho "ring" and suc
ceeded In getting a committee that has
elected Mr. Joseph Shaepless chair
man. Rut tho "ring" will triumph in
tho end they havo tlio insido track
they will get tho money and precious
careful will they bo that Mr. Sharp
less does not get tho handling of It!
Thoy havo so finely feathered their
nests heretofore that thoy wont roudlly
yield now. Look out for them, Mr.
Chairman !
U. S. Senator Wilson, of Massa
chusctts, lias been nt Washington beg-
Ing tho Administration to compel
somo of its office-holders in that State
to ccaso their support of Rutleii for
Governor ! Sumner, Wilson and tho
parlor politicians generally, as well as
tho snob aristocrats, are against tho
great spoonoy, yet they are all tilled
with fear and trembling at tho prospect
of his success 1 Slneerelv IiopIiil' for
tho disgraco of Massachusetts, that tho
harlot may becomo nn eyesore to all
men, and that her insolent and mcddlo
some managing sons may bo thoroughly
politically cursed, wo hopo for Ren's
success! To bo crushed by u filthy
monster alio had nursed would bo ajust
fato for Massachusetts I
How They Da It,
I ho Austin (Texas) Xtatesmun. nub
llshed by namesakes of ours of whom
wo never heard beforo wo saw their
paper, thus tell how Radical Congress
men get rich ! Tlio .Statesman sas's :-
Somo unsophisticated chan up Nortl
uouuiiess living in ono of tho rural dls
trlcts, says it is a very remarkablo fact
that speaker Rlane, who ton years
ago was a member of tho Malno Legls
hituro, on a salary of 5150 per annum
and whoso salary as speaker Is only
ir.niiri 1 .
"'". now u millionaire.
Why, there's nothing remarkablo
about It at all; Us tho simplest thing Iu
tho world. If tho poor, benighted In
dividual who mado tlio remark referred
to, will only como to Toxas. visit Aus
tin nnd consult with tho Governor, tlio
miurnoy uonoriil, tho Adjutant Gener
al and thu Secretary of Stato, thu wholo
mystery willboexplnlncdqulcker than
a nmlu can kick. Tlio mystery consists
simply Iu tho scientific- application of a
beautiful and newly discovered prlncl
pip of government, namely, to tax and

nnd then to tax and btcal again, and so

Tho Radical convention of llcrks coun

to n vcrv Iucratlvo office iu New Or

Attorney Gonetal of the United Slates
tho llerks Uadlcals claim that their nc
Hon is consistent witli that of thel

l'EL'i'KY. Tho Democrats of Laucas
tor county havo determined to notnl
nato tt full county ticket. Wo regard
this courso as a wiso one. Wherever a
party for temporary success or for tho
sake of " demoralizing " its opponent
resorts to thu support of boilers, It
suro to losu iu thu end. It will luovi
