The. Last Word.
To the Democrats of Columbia county, and all
citizens who are in favor of an honed ami
economical government,
Boforo nnotliar number of tho Columbian
is printed, tho election will havo been held
nnd tho question as to whether wo shall havo
a chaugo in tho conduct of our Stato air.tlrs
will havo been decided. You arc the juror
Upon you rests tho responsibility of giving
n verdict that will rclcaso you from tho
hands of public plunderers who have been
robbing you for so many yours. If you want
to know what is done with your taxes,
ELECT THE DEMOCRATIC CANDI
DATES. Tho only hopo of a return to
prosperity lies in tho result of this election
LET EVERY TOWNSHIP DO ITS
1'ULL DUTY. Uring out your teams and
Bee to it that every vote is polled. If wo tie
slro to ovcrcomo tho corrupt rings that have
been running the Stato so long, WE MUST
WORK. Ohio showed a gain of over 20,
000 Democratic votes. If Pennsylvania will
do as well, wo shall elect our caiulidates'by
a handsome majority. This is not merely
political contest. It is a personal matter of
DOLLARS and CENTS to every citizen o
this Commonwealth. If you would protect
your own right, if you would reduce your
taxation, if you would have a revival of the
industries of thocountry,if you would secure
to vour children tho blessings of an honest
and upright government, let every man put
his shoulder to tho wheel, and we shall rout

the hepkai, or Tin: tax on heal estate,
In order to cover up its corruption and
extravagance, tho Republicans loudly prate
that they repealed the State tax on real estate
Every tax payer knows that his burdens are
greater now than over before. Tho act in
question was a mcro dodge. It simply
changed the manner of collecting the tax,
Tho Roard of Revenue assess upon each
county noio its share of Stato taxes, and o
course tho county levies nro made upon real
citate. To prove this wo give the following
table showing what Columbia county has
paid into tho State Treasury since the repeal
of tho law.
Columbia County .Stale Taxes,
18GG - 'J85.92
1807 - 1309.14
1808 - 085.02

1870 - 2123.31
1871 - 2005.31
1872 - 1011.00
1873 - 1041.00
In further proof of the burdens that real
estate must bear in the shape of taxation we
give an extract from Thomas J. Iiigham
chief of tho Bureau of Statistics under
Hartraaft, to bo found on Page 4, of his, re

In the face of these facts will any man
attempt to deny that real estate goes untaxed
for Stato purposes ?
A Specimen Brick.
Governor Hartranft this year advertised
fjr the annual supplies of Stationery for the
use of the Stato official. Their cost was
$7,000. Tho advertisements, given to pet
Radical papers cost 58,000! This is economy
with a vengeance. And yet tho people aro
asked to keep in power tho men who profit
by such robbery!
Democrats ! Get out every vote. Or
ganize your Townships by appointing a
committee for each School District. Two
more voles in each Township' in Ohio, would
have given us tho State. Frequently ono
vote decides the result of an election. Have
your teams ready.
A Challenge to liuwlo.
Victor E. Piollet, tho Democratic candi
date for Stato Treasurer, declares his views
nnd position as follows :
WV60X, October 11, 1875. Dear Sir:
I believe that all sums of money paid
to tho Stato Treasurer for interest upon de
posits are as much tho money of tho Stato as
is the principal, and should bo accounted
for by that officer. Plc.uo invito my oppo
nents to.como forward and state their views
and understanding of the law in this regard.
"Will thoso gentlemen agrco with me that it
is embezzlement to take n cent beyond tho sal
ary afllxed by law to the. office of Stato
Treasurer?
I desire a precedent that will compel all
State Treasurers in tho futuro to show by
monthly statements who lias the Stato moil
0 on deposit and how much (ifunything) is
paid lor its use, with n corresponding entry
of credit on the books of tho Treasury in fa
vor of the people of Pennsylvania. I desire,
oven more than my election, that the condi
tion of the State Treasury be openly stated at
all times and tubject to the scrutiny of any
man, or set of men, desiring to verify tho
statement. Jn concluiion, J ayain aver that
interest paid for the use of State money it us
neredly the properly of the people at the prin
e'pal, V. E. 1'iolllt.
Piollet believes it to bo embezzlement to
take a cent while In office beyond his salary,
The taxpayers would llko to hear Ilawle's
opinion on this subject. Will ho daro accept
this challenge? Rlso up, Henry Rawle, and

Why dosen't Hartranft Imltuto the shin

House, on tho issues of the present cam
paign. Cuielly anil mostly, his aim op
pearedtobo to Impress upon the minds of
lis hearers the fact that there had been a
war, ami mat tno ucmocrauc party was
responsible for tiiat war, and that all Demo
crats were traitors, &e. &c, through the
wliolo lingo of that kind of stuff. Ho denied
that tho Republicans wero responsible for
linancial embarrassment of the country, and
insisted that finance was a mcro question' of
busiucss,and had no connection with politics
Perhaps somoof our citizens will remember
that only three or four years ago, this samo
gentleman was stumping the State, and tell
ing the people that all that was necessary to
bring about protperity and, financial success
was to vote the Republican ticket. Time
evidently has worked a chango in tho
opinions of tho cx-Goy. It is proper to
stato that Mr. Pollock was tho first and only
Know-Nothing Governor wo ever had, and
that ho is now Director of tho Mint in
Philadelphia, under tho appointment of
Grant. Of course, lie is a patriot.
i'arilon Hrokerage.
We havo been informed Hint a would bo
Senator fiom Schuylkill, of Irish French
extraction, proposes to make! heavy inroads
among the "Mollio Maguircs" in favor of
Hartranft by promising pardons' for any of
fences that may bo committed.. Ho is report
ed to havo said that ho has tho authority
of Hartranft for doing so. Any man who
would voto for Hartranft under such pledges
deserves to bo punished, and wo gladly an
nounce that tho majority of tho Roard of
Pardons happens to be composed of Demo,
crats, who are not disposed to pardon crimi
nals because they may have voted a certain
way. Hartranft has pardoned his partisaus
in the past, but unfortunately for him tho
new constitution now prevents him from
liberating them at his own will. Tho cause
must be desperate which requires appeals to
scoundrels and rufTiaus by the promise
pardons.
Tell tho truth Mr. Columbian. Pleaso in
form your readers when the Democratic party
ever paia a cent on the state debt, or did any
thing to strengthen the national credit. lie
tion passed tho law creating tho Sinking
Fund by means of which the State Debt is
being reduced and under Packer's adminis
tration we paid off 1,900,000 of the
debt. Tho Republicans, as shown
the official records havo robbed that Fund
to tho tune of over $0,000,000, or tho debt
would have been that much less. A few
years ago a Republican Legislature also
passed a bill giving tho whole of the Fund
somo Nino Million of dollars to a rotten
paper railroad, and tho infamy was only
prevented by Geary's veto. Mr. llepublican,
don't ask too many questions.
Now answer us this. How comes it that
the expenses of our State Government under
Packer in 1800 wero but $3,000,000, under
Curtin in 1SGG but 4,000,000, and under
Hartranft over 7,000,000? Tho pcoplo

Projected Frauds,
False Registry Lists Prepared for use in
Luzerne county,
Tiie Scranton Free Press says: Ono of tho
shrewdest anil yet at tho Bamo time most
villanous plots has just been discovered, to
thwart tho will of the people nt tlio next
election in this comity, that it has ever fell
to tho lot of the Sunday Free 1'ress to expose.
The first intimation that tho democracy of
Luzerne county had of this viilany was from
the following communication which appear
ed in the Philadelphia Times of Tuesday
hut:
what's in Tim wind?
To the Fditor of the Philadelphia Times:
Do you know of any reason why the rep
ublican btate central committee should havo
printed a full bet of registry books for Luz
erne county afac simile of those printed
for tho county commissioners of said county?
That such a set of books were printed in this
city, tho bill sent to Jlovt and tho books
shipped to a party in Wilkcsbarro tlio latter
part of last week, I know of a certainty. Mv
opinion is that they aro to bo filled up to suft
tlio views of tho republican leaders, the gen
uine books abstracted and these hubstituted,
Onu Who Knows.
A closo watch in tho right quarter soon
revealed "tlio reason v.hy tho Republican
sUtc committee had these books printed,"
It was discovered that E. II. Chase, Grant's
internal revenuo collector for this district,
went into tlio comity commissioner's offico
at Wilksbarre, and took therefrom certified
copys of all tho registry lists of this county,
took them to Philadelphia and had fraud
ulent ones printed. Then ho took tho cer
tificates from tho genuine boots and pasted
them upon the fraudulent ones. Theso bo
gus books aro to bo sent into tho republican
wards and districts where tho eloction boards
can bo controlled, and the books manipulated
so as to secure returns to suit their purposes.
These fraudulent lists, intended, for use in
tho Fourth and Fifth wards of this city, havo
already been sent to tho notorious A. B.
Stevens, who In conjunction with tho scamp
E. 11. Chase, last year, gave out falso tax
receipts and ho mado voters of hundreds
who were not entitled to that privilege.

lerciico lie spoke nl tho general good
nnturo which was manifested bv those who
arlk'limtcil in tlio sessions. Tlio defeated
candidates had all pledged tlicir support.aud
tho voto of their counties to the successful
candidate. Tho districts of tho common
wealth aro drawing themselves together for
ono more.and ho trusted a final assault upon
corruption. The President had given the
tidiest offices to his retainers, without re
gard to capacity. Wo havo seen tiio father-in-law
of tho President nctlng as an otlico
broker. Wo have seen tho President putting
tho financial management o'f tho country
into the hands of a linn which had become
bankrupt, and a per cent, was to go to tho
President nnd ins relatives in consequence.
In tho District of Columbia speculation the
leader was an intlmato of the whito house.
A cabinet officer had been driven from posi
tion on nccountof fraud, and tho place had
been lined uy tno appointment oi .acti.
Chandler. Is it not about time an admin
istration was put in power in this country
that should bo honest, nnd a protection to
our people? While tlio wages of tho labor
ing men were coming down to ninety cents a
day, tho President was traveling deadhead
about the country on a salary twice as largo
as Washington had, with half as much work.
Tho wholo country has been debauched,
and it is tlmo to cry "halt I" It is tlmo it
was stopped.
ltd rccard to tlio state, we are in very
much tlio samo condition ns with the federal
administration. Tho treasury was being
used for tho purpose of debauching the pub
lic sentiment and carrying elections. It -was
an open secret. We know tho treasury ring
has manipulated tho voto In Philadelphia.
and thereby beaten Democratic candidates.
Thcro is n Pilgrim ring in Philadelphia
which has piled up a debt so great that a
limit had to bo fixed by the constitutional
convention, nnd vet tho filching continued.
It is the business nt tho people outside tlio
city, to rescue the citizens of Philadelphia.
There were Pilgrim rings in every city in tho
btate. ihese were lor tho purpose or cor
rupting the voters. JWhen these men go
nuout with their money it means corruption,
nnd that must be struck down. Governor
Hartranft has for three -years winked nt all
this, and it is growing worse. It is within
tho power of the people to reform this; the
Democratic convention has nominated men,
who. it elected, will cniorco honesty.

Columbia county is known as the star of

five years of age, and lias a future, which is

Instead oi an cnlogium which wo might ou
selves pass upon him, wo givo an extract
from the Gazette it Bulletin, a Republican
newspaper in Williamsport, as tho highest
compliment which we can ofi'er. The Gazette
it Bulletin says :
Tho Democratic senatorial conference nfter
a tedious experience of three weeks,conclud
cd its labors by tho nomination of Robert
P. Allen, foq , of ibis city. The result is
ono that will not surprise anybody, as Mr.
Allen from the start had been one of the
leading candidates; whichever way it turned
tho probability of his nomination has always
been held in view. He has finally succeed
ed, and the nomination will provo a gratifi
cation to moro than tbobo of Mr. Allen's

strongly Democratic is recognized by all,
and it is a peculiar gratification to hayo
such a gentleman as Robert P. Allen pre
sented for tho position. Tho action assures
us that whatever transpires tho NXlVth
senatorial district will bo represented by an
honest, upright, intelligent gentlcinan.whoso

would not help the cause of tho Republican

houso appointed to Investigate tho nffiiirs of
tho Stato treasury beg "leavo to prccnt tho
following additional report :
iVItcr tho Stato treasurer, In April last,
refused tho accountant of tho committeo ac
cess to tho books and papers in tho treasury
of the Stato tho committeo continued Its
work by an examination of the public docu
ments published yearly by tho different de
partments of tho Stato Government. From
thes examination the committeo ascertained
and in their report of July 1G, 1875, stated :
first, 'that Irom about tho year 18CG to
1874 nearly ?3,400,000 was largely taken from
tho sinking lund,
Second. That during a period of twelve
years, beginning with December , 1SG2, tlio
different fetato treasurers had an averago bill
anco constantly on hand of 2,100,000, but
had not accounted to tho Stato for ono cent
of interest un the same, the tax payers be
ing thus practically robbed of $1,400,000,
'third. That the law directing tho quar
terly application of all money in the sink
ing fund to the liquidation of an equivalent
amount of public debt had been constantly
and systematically violated, to the great lo?3
of tho pcoplo and tho enrichment of tho
Stato treasurers.
The committee, continuing tho samo line
ol investigation smco that report, havo fur
ther discovered :
First. That from 18G5 to 1874 there ap
pears to bo a yearly overchnrgo on tlio in
terest account on tho public debt, the dif
ferent treasurers taking, credit for paying
moro interest tha the Stato debt bore. The
grand aggregate thus unlawfully taken from
the Stato treasury,in tho eleven years named
amounts to the enormous sum of 1,1 23,301,,

Second. That from 1S70 to 1874 thcro ap
pears to havo been an excess of premium
charged on the purchnso of gold to pay the
interest on the gold-bearing bonds amount
ing in all to 121,427,95.

Tho committee having pursued this lino
of inquiry as far as practical or useful,
subpoenaed the State treasurer, R. W. Mack
cy, and his predeces-ors in office, to appear
and explain, if possible, any of tho above
items. Theso subpoenas wero returnable
October 5, at Harrisburg, their service sworn
to, but thcro was no appearance, except by
Mr. Alackey, and ho declined to testify un
til his predecessors in offico wero sworn
certainly an unusual dictation on tho part o
a witness. But tho committee met from day
to day, and subsequently subpomed -Mr,
Mackey to appearand testify in Philadelphia
on Wednesday, October 20. Mr. JIackev
treasurers have studiously avoided tnoifitxv
iiigsot the committee. Had tho committei
the power to issue an attachment for the!
arrest that power would bo promptly used
but that is a prerogative of the house which
must of necessity remain unexercised until
tho house is in session. What inferenco is
to bo drawn? Certainly it is fair to assume
that all tho charges above mado aro true, an
tno treasurers do not appear when lawfully
suupoencd, and explain or deny them.
in this connection the committee cannot
refrain from referring to another difficulty
had to contend with. Tho committeo was
created by tho houso alone, the Senate rc-
lusing to concur, and tho committeo was
wholly deprived of funds to pay any of its
expenses.

Tho wages of labor havo fallen an avera
of GO per cent, in tho last two years, while
food and fuel aro as high as ever. Thus, tho
laborer who threo years ago earned 3 a day
on tho average, now earns only 1 if ho can
get work at all whilo tho prime necessaries
of life cost just as much as they did before.
Where is the fault? Who is responsible for
this destruction of industry, for this suffering
of honest workmen? Tho Republican party
and its system of Grantism and plunder. Let
thoworkinginen remember this, and voto ac
cordingly. The Democracy aro seeking tho
good of tho great class of active business men
and workingmeii, who aro really tho life
blood of tho country. Tho republican party,
in its ruinous nttempt to force specio pay
ments, is working in tho interest of rich id
lers and salaried offico holders. Choose yo
between them. Ailentown Democrat,
blasphemy.
Whenever ministers of tho Gospel so fur
forget their vocation a.sto utter In tho pulpit
stuff liko this, it is timo Christians ceased to
attend the churches where it is uttered :
J'arson Xicwman Thanh God for the Jtcsult
of the Ohio Fection.llov, Dr. Newman
yesterday, at tho morning service in tho
Metropolitan M. E. church, thus alluded, in
oni ot his prayers, to tho recent election in
Ohio: "Wo thank Thee, O God, for tho
recent evidences exhibited by the people of
their purposo to remain truo to those princi
ples by which a people will continue to bo
irco, and that by theso signs they showed n
desiro to perpetuate the principles inculcated
by our forefathers and to preserve them for
futuro generations." Evening Star, Uth

It Is sacrilege to nttributo tho result to tho
Almighty. Remember, it teas a very close
shave.
Thero is moro scandlo about relatives of
tho President. Some of tho Innumerable host
who havo claimed kindred at tho Whito
Houbc,"and had their claims allowed," aro
said to bo partners of a prominent distiller
In St. Louis who havo been Indicted for
frauds upon tho rovenuo. This man refuses
to plead guilty, and threatens to mako it
warm for his partners of tho Presidential
family if the prosecution Is pushed. Thoso
relatives will bo tho ruin of Grant yet.

A Problem.
Tho amount of gold In tho country Is n
llttlo over 1,000,000. The annual produc
tion of tho mines of California. Nevada,
Utah, Colorado, Molilalia and Idaho, aver
ages about 70,000,000. Tho annual export
of gold from tho country in payment of in
terest bearing debt, and in adjusting the
balance of trade, Is nearly SO,000,000. Gold
Is also used to a considerable extent in tho
arts and manufactures. In tho vaults of the
United States Treasury there nro now nbotit
75,000,000 In gold. With these figures as
a basis, wo would llko somoof tho advocates
of contraction to tell us how tho government
can redeem 380,000,000 of paper money
with 75,000,000 of gold. And if that
can bo successfully accomplished, wo would
ITko to know how 150,000.000 in gold will
servo tho purposo of a circulating medium
for tho business of a country which required
twlco that ninount of money fifteen years
ago. Wlicn they havo answered these
.questions wo hnvo a few more posers for
them. Standard.
Election Boards would do well to read tho
"note" printed on tho bottom of the "Trip
licate Election Return." Wo publish it be
low for tho benefit of all voters.
Note. Three of theso returns must be
signed by tho officers and certified by tho
overseers, if any olliccr or overseer refusing
to sign or certify, shall endorse tho reason of
his refusal on each return. Ono return with
the tally paper, list of voters and oaths of
olliccrs.is to bo placed in an envelope, sealed
up, and delivered with the unsealed return
sheet to tlio Judge of election. Ono of the
returns is to bo placed in tho ballot box and
sealed up with tho ballots. The third re
turn is to be scaled up in an envelope, and
given to tho minority inspector. All three
returns are to be sealed up in the presence of
the olhcers.
Tho return sheet contains tho following
Note. This Return Sheet is to bo siencd
by all tho officers, and given unsealed to tho
judge, and by him delivered (at the tlmo tho
return is delivered) to tho Prothonotary.who
shall mark thereon tho day and hour of
hlitig, and preserve it for public inspection.
Just for tlio purpose of showing how well
the Philadelphia banks aro prepared to rc
sumo specie payments, wo quoto tho follow
ing from tlio weekly statement published
yesterday :
1-oana 01,411,578
Circulation 11,087,055
bpecie 140,740
Which shows a specio dccrease'of 20,251
within a fortnight. Won't those banks have
to pull up sharp for tho next three years to
raise that eleven millions of specio? Well,
they will. But they will not consider it a
hardship, for tho reason that they arc bent
upon having honest money, tho greenbacks,
their own bantlings, being only rags, you
know. Philadelphia Chronicle.
Full Vote of Ohio. Full returns have

General Grant sold his old war horse, vicks
burg, at public sale, for 30. Was tho love
of money tho prevailing sentiment that led
to the sacrifice of this faithful old animal?
In Albany township. Berks county, there
is an aged man named Daniel Correl, who
has spent sixty years of his life hunting wild
animalson"LudoMountnin." Hois known
as tho "Wild Old Man of tho Woods." am
is almost as wild as the animals themselves
Daniel Webster's Marshfield ostato is now
reduced from 1600 acres to nearly the orig
inal purchaso of about 400 acres, but the
homestead retains tho characteristics of it
old ownership, though most of tho works in
tho library have been removed for sale.
All prospects of a war between England
and China aro at an end, Mr. Wade,- the
English minister, having obtained from tho
Chineso government all tlio guarantees bo
considered necessary. This is satisfactory
intelligence, as a war witli China would havo
no beneficial results, and would bo certain to
inllict immense damago upon commerce.
