The Milo I'.li'fllon.
At Ilia hour of going to prcn the indica
tions arc tlmt thu Republican havo carried
Ohio by n small majority. It win des
perate fight, uml llio opposition threw their
entire weight nf men und mKiey Info the
campaign. Tho H7,0J(1 olllco holder were
assessed heavily, and thu uatloiuil bunks
raised n million of dollars,io that everything
rotten or purchasable went with tho Repub
licans. Ami yet tho victory will bo a barren
one. In 1858 tho Republican majority was
11,000, in 1871 21,000, and in 1872 33,000,
nml wo doubt whether they have over 1,000
this year. Tho real issues of tho day wero
evaded, and tho oucstion hinged mainly on
tho conduct of tho public schools into which
was injected nil immense amount of Know
Nothitigisin. Pennsylvania can and will profit by this
lesson, Yc must charge home upon our
opponents here, their frauds, corruption, and
expenditures, matter which did not enter in
to the Ohio campaign, and where tho op
position candidate was admitted to bo an
honest, faithful man. Tho same percentage
of gain in Pennsylvania will glvo us tho
Stato by 30,000 majority. And now every
man to work.
P. S. Thursday, Oct 14th. Tho result in
Ohio is uncertain. Iowa lias gone Republi
can with a reduced majority.
Grant.
In a private letter to Gen. Sherman, dated
Msrch -1, 18(31, Gen. Grant said, "I shall ac
cept no appointment which will require mo
to make that city Washington my head
quarters." Sherman in reply said: "You arc now
Washington's legitimate successor, and occupy
a position of almost dangerous elevation ; but
if you continue (M heretofore to he yourself,
simple, honest, ami unpretending, you will en
joy through lfc the love and nvpeet of friends,
Ac"
Grant, tho soldier, has changed to Grant,
tho politician. True, ho keeps out of
Washington as much in 1874 as in 1803.
But then he was in the field; now his
tiino is spent at horse races, clam-balccs,
Long Br;.nch, and in fact at any place to
escape tho duties the people imposed upon
liiin,and which he boa-liiigly accepted.
" tVvhhujloiCa legitimate su..-Li,or" Third

era but in no othor sense. Imagine) Wash
i ton Willi Uo's Sheppard, Murphy, Cam-t-rn-i.ticn.
liutlcr,Mosby,Lo:igstrcct, Delano,
nml thit cowd! It is an insult to Wash
ington's name.
And yet Sherman gavu good advice. Ho
told Grant "to bo simple, honest, and unpre
fudin." His extravagance shows that he
is iiot "simple." The rottenness and corrup
tion of his cabinet and appointees show that
he is not "honest." His dash at Long
llranch, acceptation of presents, doubling
hU salary, show that ho is not "unpretend
ing." Evidently Cameron is leading Grant,
and sinco tiie war Sherman cannot guide
him.
1 his Indian business.
In tho lato Modoc war, wo knew that it
cost tho tax-payers $1,000,000 for each
Indian killed. It could have been done
cheaper by contract, but then tho Govern
ment agents would havosulfered pecuniarily.
The administration has spent much time and
money on tho Sioux endeavoring to purchase
tho Black Hills in the interest of speculators,
and Messrs. Welsh and Marsh, reputable
Republicans, have shown us tho rotten
agencies and agents, how the Interior De
partment paid for goods neither ordered nor
delivered how Grant's brother "Orvillo"
is getting rich at tho expense of tho nation
and now comes this dispatch.
INDIANS IN A DISTITUTE CONDITION.

and that 300 of the latter have been thrust
from their homes and are in a destitute and
deplorable condition. Ho asks tho com

We would ask somo Intelligent Republi
can tax-payer to tell us why in 1808 it cost
tho Government only -1,000,000 to support
these "pets" and m 1873 it cost $8,000,000;
or twice as much ! Transportation is cheat

Why is this Thus?
Our opponents aro extremely anxious to
divert public attention to a war that closed
ten years ago, and cvado questions that be
long to the present. The war of 18015 is
as effectually over as that of 1812 or the
Mexican war, Mid the "bloody shirt" busi
noss, won't do. Tho party which has been
in power for fifteen years, is being called to
account for its robbery, corruption, and
v iijnessi of lata years. Tho peoplo want
to know why their taxes aro increased, why
money is carcc,why laborls cither so poorly
r led or not paid at all j why factories.

THE
Judicial Aillieslreiief
It may tint bo fully understood by all our
re.uleis a 1 1 what kind of tar it Is that
makes the pantaloons of President Judges
stick so tenaciously to tho "Uencli," after
they have been upon it for eleven or twelve

kind of "tar" is very adhcsl -Montrose
Jiemocral.
While wo are in favor of u reduction of
taxation, and while wo fully ngi that thcro
aro many officials who receive mipciisatioti
far in excess of what their services aro
worth, wo cannot consent to place President
Judges in tho category of ore paid public
servants. Tho arduous duties iiey havo to
perform, and tho heavy responsibilities that
tlfuy bear, aro certainly worth 4.-4,000 a year.
It is not true that this sum is mo "tax that
makes them stick to tho Ucnr' , after they
havo been upon it eleven or twelve years."
AJudgo is required to bo Impartial, aud
after a series of years, ho find: It a difficult
tasK to return to tuo practico of law, whero
ho mint placo himself in tho shoes of his
client, aud work only for his side of tho
question. There havo been m ly instances
of excellent Judge who, upon returning to
practice, have failed as advocates. As to tho
compensation for holding special courts,
Judges havo to bear their own expenses and
when these aro paid, it docs not leave them
as much per diem as their regular salary
amounts to. Of course, they cannot bo ox
pected to do extra servico out of their own
Districts for nothing; no body does that.
There is another law on tho statute books,
that permits a chango of venue, from one
county to another which throws much extra
labor on Judges, for whicli they rcccivo no
compensation. But there is no use of pur
suing tho subject further. It is only thoo
who know littlo of legal proceedings who
howl about overpaid Judges ; those who
look upon tho position as a sinecure, and
who are not awaro that tho great labor of a
Judge is performed in tho solitudo of the
office where law books aro searched, aud
long opinions prepared by the severest kind
of mental exertioii,and this, too, almost con
stantly. Such articlc3 as tho ubovo havo no
other effect than to show ignorance or malice,
or both on tho part of tho writer.
Republican Extravagance.
We present the following ollicial table to
prove beyond all question that tho charges of
extravagance heretofore made in these
columns against tho administration of Gov.
Hartranft aud other Republican officials aro
fully sustained by tho official records and
are exactly true. Here is the table :

It is proper to say that tho ixpcnses of
the School Department include appropria
tions to tho schools and for salaries of
County Superintendents.
1'rom these figures it will be seen that tho
Executivo and State Departments arc made
to cost tho people nearly three times as
much under Hartranft's administration that
they did 'under Gov. Packer's twico as
much as in Curtin's first term and nearly
tho same as tho second, which included the
period of tho war and largely in excess of
Geary's, admitted by all to have been ab
surdly wasteful aud extravagant. If Gov.
Hartranft has done this during his first term,
while he is on good behaviour, what may
not be expected from him during a second,
when there will be no restraint upon him?
In addition to all this, tho Legislative ap
propriations during his administration have
been extravagant and excessive, but we have
not at present the official figures before us.
While tho expenses of the other Depart
ments exhibit gross extravaganco on the
part of tho Republican officials, thoy also
show clearly that amongst all the sinners in
that regard Gov. Hartranft is the chief I
lluu. Samuel K. Dlumiiek.
It is with great regret that wo announce
the death of Samuel E. Dimmick, the At
torney General of the Stato. From tho
Morning Patriot of Oct. 12, we learn that ho
died at the Lochiel House in Harrisburg on
Tuesday last, at 11 o'clock p, m. of
pneumonia. "The Patriot says :
He came to HarrUburg on Tuesday last
in order to attend the meeting of thi lioard
of Pardons. Ho was sick on his nrrlval
here, but attended tho first session of the
board. Ho has not been able to leave his
room since Wednesday"; hut a fatal termina
tion to his illness was not anticipated. His
remains will bo taken to Honesdalo for in
terment to-day.
Tho public have lost an earnest, honest,
aud efficient officer, and Hartranft has lost
the man who made his administration re
spectable. Mr. Dimmick left his position as a member
of the Constitutional Convention to accept
tho ono which lie so ably filled to tho time
of his death. The veto messages which he
wrote, (although neoeasarily signod by Hart
ranft) struck terror alike to Pclgrims ond
corruptlonlsts, and to his credit it must bo
said that ho sought and received iu his re
form measures tho united support of the
Democratic minority iu the Legislature.
Personally ho was genial and kind and
his loss will bo as deeply regretted by politl
cal opponents as by tho party of which he
was an honored member.
Future Delegates. The second of our rules
regulating nominations provides that "The
representation of Districts in county con
vention shall bo in proportion to tho Demo
cratic vote of each as cast at tho most recent
election for Governor." lly polling a good
vote DloomsbuJg gained ono delegate, Scott
ono delegate, and Sugarloaf eamo within ono
vote of having thrte. Hemlock because of
a slim vote lost one delegate Our friends
therefore see tho luiportanco of polling u
full vote this year, because it will deeldo
their delegute representation for the next
thrco years. Hemlock can galu its delegate
by active work, Sugarloaf kecure another,
and many other Townships, not only savo
what they have, but increase the number.

Yes, In tho war with Mexico, and wo must
confess Jeff, DAvls.Scott, Sherman and somo
other men were there, and "drank from tho
samo canteen." Ilut It is seriously charecd
that he participated In tho now famous
" Fishingcreek Confederacy." Somo of our
contemporaries deny It. It is time that this
1'isuingcrcek" arratigcmcut, like tho
"bloody shirt" and "outrago" business, was
dropped j and for several reasons. Thcro
never was any Confederacy, no rcslstaneo
to draft or troops, linearis, guns, nor
ammunition. Tho Infat; cavalry, and
artillery camo hero before tho October
election of 1801, marched whero thoy wished
without molestation, imprisoned whom they
pleased, guarded tho different election places
iu defiauco of constitution nnd law, and
took to Fort MIIHIn somo seventy Innocent
aud unolTendlng citizens. It was a glorious
task, though not a man was killed or wound
ed iu the attempt.
In 1872 lluckalcw was supposed to havo
led this mythical rebel host. AW wo learn
that it was Piollet. It is even hinted tlmt
ho crucified the Redeemer, help bum John
llogers at the stake, aud was thu first man to
firo on Fort Sumter I
Wo don't bcllevo it. In fact, living on
tho Fishingcreek from boyhood wo must dc
uounco this bosh asnbsurd.
Col. Piollet was here at tho close of tho
war, at tho famous Nob Mountain Meeting,
and his best defence is tho words ho spoko

Fort Miflllu men, ns follows:
If thero ever was a timo in our history
when tho active exertions of all tho laboring
and producinc classes of the countrv worn
called for to regulato the political aflalrs of
tuo country, it is now. wo havo just
emerged from a civil war of the most gigan
tic proportions, and we are proud and happy
attho result; wo congratulato each other
when we meet, upon tho fact that victory
perches on the national banner, nnd that the
union oftheso States, the glorious Union be
queathed to us by our fathers, has stood the
shock of war, and that we havo been able to
maintain it against armed resistance. In
our political assemblies, and in casual meet
tings of tho citizens, we find everywhere
men who havo borne arms iu defence of the
Union. The soldiers who went to battle for
tho Unioti havo como back among us, and
they deserve to bo remembered with grati
tude by all; they deserve a helpingliiind
from every one of us ; and they deserve to
know from us, iu our political discussions,
so much of the past as will put us, as politi
cal partisans and lriends, right with them.
I intend in all tho transactions of life to
stand tho firm, unyielding friend of tho man
who battled for tho Union ; I will give him
a prcferenco in every way that I can, ho that
ho may bo able to earn h'is livelihood during
tho remainder of his days. I am willing
that tho trea-ury shall pay him a pension for
services rendered, out of tho monoy collected
by taxes from the peoplo.
I want tho soldiers who havo como homo
to understand that tho difTcrenco between
tho Kepuhlicaii3 and ourselves, in regard to
the war, was not a diUereuco as to whether
tho rebellion should bo put down or not, but
it was just what I havo stated. Wo invite
them now into our councils, and I should
certainly prefer any ono of them for office to
any of thoso shoddy gentleman who havo
been "helping" tho Government. You
know what that means, for you recollect tho
picturo of tho man who got into Mr. Chase's
paper money factory, and was pulling ofi'the
any of them, aro better than those gentle
men. They aro better than the politicians
who staid at homo to tako care of tho party,
and falsify, and villify, and misrepresent
their neighbors, who chanced to differ from
them in politics, but who wero supporting
tho Government with all their power, and
even forgiving, or at least trying to put out
of view, tho abuses of an Administration
whoso acts made honest men's flesh crawl.

Hartranft's accounts with Yerkcs shows
that tho former gambled in stocks to an

speech at Zanesvillo to nn exceedingly large
coucourso of people. Tho Governor took nn
tho speclo resumption bill passed at tho last
Congress which was voted for by tho Repub
licans and opposed by tho Democrats, both
in tho house and tho senate, and showed up
its ruinous tendencies. Ho announced that
ho was in favor of speclo payments but not
until a largo amount of our indebtedness
was paid, and then ho was not iu favor of
forced specie resumption, but through tho
encouragement thoso productions the export
ation of which would bring to tho country.
The reason why Judgo Pershing refuses
to resign tho judgship and tako tho stum p
for tho Democrats, is explained by a corres
pondent of tho New York Tribune, who has
lately interviewed tho Judge, iu this wise :
"Two considerations, ho said, have led him
to his decision respect for what appears to
be the unanimous desire of tho people of his
judicial district as well as tho advico of his
personal friends; and a feeling that it is his
duty to continue to perform the judicial
functions with which ho has been intrusted,
and not desert his post to seek for an office.
Tho business of his courts is exceedingly
complicated, on account of tho many suits
involving tho title to lands which were once
considered worthies, but by the discovery of
coai on tnem havo become of great value.
Lawyers and litigants appcaraliko unwilling
to havo him resign."

In 1870 thero were 4 Democratic Gover
