Tlio (insigcr Vote.
The vote for Col. l'iollet shows that as an
organization tlio Grangers took no part In
the late contest. It is true that they tako no
part in politics. Had they desired the elec
tion of u farmer, It was In their power to do
it, but they preferred n millionaire manu
facturer. When it chance for reform was
offered them they threw it away and defeated
their ablest champion.
Hard Times.
The election is over, nml tho voters of
this State havo again endowed the l.epubli-
can parly. )ut tho times are no better.
Money is as scarce as evcr,and it will be un
til tlio present party is ousted from power,
Tho Republican who voted to continuo this
condition of nuTirs should quit grumbling,
and tlio Democrats who slaid at home de
serve, no sympathy. OJlicial extravagance,
Hilary gr.ib,arnl general corruption has been
endorsed, and it is somo satisfaction to know
that those who helped produce this condition
of affairs must suffer in tbo general dis
tress. ,
Tho Democracy have attended fivo Gub'
eruatorial funerals. Tho candidates were
all from the East. Perhaps tho west may
be recognized alter while. Pittsburg Post.
Wo thought the West, was recognized in
nominating Lieutenant Governor Latta, and
Auditor General Templo at Pittsburg last
year and Speaker of tho House of Represent
atives. Tliofacfis tho West dictated the
Platform at Erie which led to our defeat,and
in tho teeth of delegates from the East
where wo bavo regular Democratic ma
jorities.
Kkction Hots.
Wo are opposed to betting, not only be
cause it is contrary to law, but because it is
against sound morals. Xor havo wc any
sympathy for those who loso at this species
of gambling. But wo insist that those who
bet on a majority for Hartranft are obliged
to pay, even by tho gambler's rule. We
have been taken to task for having made
this statement last week. Wo now fortify,
it by an extract from a celebrated Sporting
Journal:
Majority Means Majoritv. Wiikes'
Spirit of tlit Times has decided that a bet on
Hartranft's majority in Pennsylvania, or on
Hayes' majority in Ohio, must be decided
by the majority over the whole vote polled,
including the Prohibition vote.
I'hilailclphia's l'rothonotary.
Tho twelve Judges of the several Courts
of Common Plea3 of Philadelphia met on
Saturday last to elect a Prothonotary for
said courts, in obedience to the provisions of
tho new Constitution. Col. William B.
Mann formerly prothonotary, was chosen on
a voto of 7 to 5. Mr. Mann is undoubtedly
an able officer, but his skirts have been so
dragged through the miro of political un
cleanness that peoplo in the country have
but little confidence in him. But he is not
our prothonotary, for which the Gods havo
our thankR. Mann is the Republican War
wick. He has made kings for Philadelphia,
rind for the State for years, and he did more
than any one elso to secure tho nomination
and election of the judges who have now re
warded him with an office that pays $75,000
a year. How beautiful is gratitude !
The Philadelphia Press does not crow as
lustily over the result of tho election in this
State, as somo of its more thoughtless con
temporaries. It sees the hand writing on
the wall, and sounds tho noto of warning to
tho Republican party as follows:
Gov. Hartranft's official plurality is an
nounced as 11.01)0. In other words, the Re
publican ticket came to Philadelphia de
feated in the Stato and was only rescued by
the solid Philadelphia column of 17,282.
Not even General Hartranft's excellent civil,
and brilliant war record could savo the ticket
before tho people in tho counties. Now,
what is tho meaning of this? Simply that
the peoplo of Pennsylvania who demand,and
intend to have, constant progress in the
purity of government, and honesty of ad
ministration, are not satisfied with the ex
ertions of The Republican party in that di
rection. Evidently the people of tho interi
or aro not so well satisfied with tho respective
tubal management in their own dUtricts,and
their voto of this month is a voto of want of
confidence. This is a condition of things
which cannot exist without danger to the
party. It behooves every county to set it
self in order,and bo ready to enter tho Presi
dential campaign in gooU lighting oruer.
How to aiil tho I'artv.
There aro at least fifteen hundred Demo
cratic voters in this county whoso names arc
not on our subscription hat. Many of them
tako no paper at all. After each election
two or threo hundred Democrats can bo
counted who wero not at the polls. These
aro mainly among thoee Democrats who do
not read the papers,and therefore do not tin
derstand tho necessity of voting. To bo n
Democrat simply because your father or
grand-father was of that party, and to voto
tho Democratic ticket, becauso somebody
asks you to do so, shows ail amount of imbe
cility that no man ought to confess. There
are great and vital principles upou which the
Democratic Party is established, and every
man should know and understand them,
and in order to do that he must read the
papers. Again, to bring up children in
ignorance, la a crime, morally considered,
It is the duty of every parent to Inculcate
tho habit of reading iu their offspring, and
there is no better matter for that purposo
than a good family newspuper.Jwhlch keeps
them informed of what is taking place in
tbo world, and at tho samo timo furnishes
interesting reading matter. That tho party
inav reap tho benefit of a wider disscmlna.

THE
Tlio balior Association.
Tho l'ottsvlllo Workingman devotes a
column ntul n half of well written criticism
on our recent editorial headed "Wanted in
Pennsylvania, A Democratic Statesman."
Very appropriately it precedes a circular of
V. W. Hughes, "To tho friends of National
money," mid both articles havo tho same
ring. Wo do not bhimo Hughes, nor any
one c!e for wanting more money, but we do
object to their putting a parly in a false
position because their financial speculations
may not havo been successful.
How far this nameless correspondent rep
resents thcLabor Reform clement of Schtiyl
Mil we arc unablo to say. Hut this wo do
know that tho organization has been used by
a few politicians, and sonic mercenary lead
ers for political purposes until it has driven
from its support some of the best men in tho
State. It could havo dictated nominations
and a platform, and yet when both wero iu
accord with it, money and corporations con
trolled its action.
Our article embraced threo points:
1st. An anti-Democratic platform.
2nd. A nomineo for Governor who was
afraid to tako the field.
"il. An imbecile Chairman.
The 'orlingman proposes to examine
"these assumptions inversely," and at once
launches into praises of Col. Wright, and
abuse of other men. It falls to meet any
other question.
This does not explain the trick at Erie.
Nor has Columbia county any other defence
to make except that under all these adverse
circumstances she increased her majority
twenty-seven per cent What did the Hughes'
Barr's, and Wrights' do? The returns
show.
The Democratic Voto in Columbia county
was increased this year about twcnty-scTcn
per cent over that cast for Lieutenant Gov
ernor last year. Tho different townships
mado their contributions to it in all
cases except Benton where tho voto was the
same that it was last year.

Conyngham is entitled to the banner
promised by the Standing Comraittco which

gratulate our party friends thero on the
handsomo vote they gave, and their refusal

Campaign Management
Our recent criticism on tho last campaign,
has called forth a friendly response from all
sections of tho State!'"' Wo did not expect
unanimity, but we are gratified at the en
dorsemcnt of our ablest and best contcmpo
raries.
We should profit by the lessons of the post.
No party can bavo a permanent existence
which is not based on sound principles. For
years Democracy has keen followiug after
strange Gods, and it is timo we come back
to tho true faith. In 1EG0 wo tried the ex
periment of running two candidates, and of
course, failed. In 1874 we put a popular
General on a peace platform and failed. In
1808 we put a hard money man on a green
back platform, and failed. In 1874 wo put a
rabid Republican on a hard money platform,
and failed.
Wo havo experimented long enough. Let
us meet the questions of tho hour in an
open manly way, and have done with patent
projccts,and with leaders who have forgotten
that progress is the order of the day. The
Rip Van Winkles should not control des
tinies. Organization should begin at once. It is
not necessary to wait until our opponents
aro thoroughly drilled and ready for an at
tack. Open fire now, and along tho wholo
lino ! Call tho young men to the front, be
cause tbo burdens of tho campaign fall upon
them.
If this bo done success in 1870 will lo
assured. Our own blunders have given the
opposition success.
Luzerae Politics.
If tho charges made against Dr. Trimmer
and his clerk are true, both deserve prompt
punishment. It will not answer for us to
condemn fraud when perpetrated by our op
ponents, and shield it when committed by
members of our own organization. Cheating
never pays in tho loqg run, and is as dis
reputable to accomplish a political purposo
as to effect a private one.

Mi:3tt9. Editors. An editorial under
the caption ol "Want of Organization" ap
pcared iu tlio Harrlsburg Patriot on the Oil:
Inst., calculated lo load public opinion
astray, and upon which, therefore, I beg
leave, through your columns, to pas 11 few
strictures. Tho Palf'vit says: " What was
pain fully manifest throuahout the recent contest
in Pennsylvania, was the utter want of organ!
zalion in the Democratic party. The dissatis
faction produced by the platform and the spirit
of faction which prevailed at JCrie, could have
been counteracted by a vigorous organization of
party strength." Now, to what cauo aro wo
to attribute this "utter want of organization
In tho Democratic party?" Up to tho meet'
Ing of tho Krlo convention, which took place
on tho 8th of September, John Miller, of
Chester county, In whom the Patriot places
Implicit confidence, was chairman of the
Democratic Stato Central Committee. Why
then did not that gentleman organize the
party as soon as tho Republicans, lu May
last, had adopted their platform and nonil
nated their candidates? In that platform and
In those nominations they surely furnished
enough material upon which 1111 aggressive
organization of tho Democratic party could
havo been established for immediate action.
But Mr. Miller evidently thought that tho
organization of tho Democratic party, for
tho campaign, should mainly depend upou
the nature of tho platform and tho character
of tho candidates adopted by the Eric con
ventiou, and, therefore, patiently awaited
tho action of that convention. When that
convention did meet at tho eleventh hour, it
split into two ficrco factious iu the discus
sion of a monetary plank with which it
really; had nothing to do, and, finally, by
tho adoption of a flagrant heresy committed
as great a political blunder as signalized the
action of the Baltimore Democratic national
convention in 1872 when they nominated
Horaco Greeley as their candidato for the
Presidency I The latter nomination was
mado by men who wero ruled by considera
tions of EXPEDIENCY, regardless of the
pulsations of tho Democratic heart, and re
suited In tlio demoralization and defeat of
tho Democratic party. Tho adoption of the
soft money plank in tho Erie platform was
also dictated by tho advocates of expediency,
regardless cither of principle or tho record
of tho Democratic party! EXPEDIENCY
that prostitute mother of apostacy I
Thus, on tho very threshold of tho clec
tion, tho Erie convention gratuitously threw
the apple of discord in tho midst of its own
party, that had, the year before, marched to
victory under tho banner of hard money ;
and while tho Democracy of tho Stato was
violently disturbed by this sudden change
of front and mbsequently paralysed by tho
rout ot too sol t money Democracy of Ohio,
tho Patriot gravely asserts that the hundred
thousand disgusted voters who staid at home
ou the 2d of November could have been
rallied and marched to tho rescuo of the
Democratic party by "a vigorous organiza
tion of the party strength!" This assertion is
simply ridiculous. Under such adverse cir
cumstances, no living man,noither tho Hon.
Hendrick B. Wright, nor oven tho Hon.
Win. A. Wallace, with all his experience,
could, in the limited space of two or three
weeks, havo rallied and organized the Demo
cratic party of Pennsylvania 10 tho support
of a platform which had just been smashed
to atoms in Ohio, notwithstanding tho in-
comparablo organization of tho Democratic
party in that State, under the guidauco of
tho veteran and experienced chairman of
their Stato Central Committee! Tlio IXitriot
does not seem to havo profited by Its experi
ence of 1872. Let us hope that its experi
ence of 1875will teach it that tho Democracy
of Pennsylvania cannot bo united iu the
support eitherof false gods orf.Uso doctrines;
all tho organized machinery in tho world
cannot do It, Principle alone will unite
them in determined and concerted action.
In tho article under consideration tlio
Patriot goes on to say : " One of the prom
inent blunders of the campaign consisted in de
posing the chairman of the State committee
who had so prudently and successfully con
ducted the canvass of last year." We aro not
disposed to deny to Mr. John Miller any
praise he may de3iro for his management of
tho .campaign of 1874; but wo do not hesi
tate to assert that tho greatest blunder of the
campaign was committed by him, when ho
and his committeo determined to drag tlio
Democratic state convention to tho remotest
corner of the State, in a little town without
accommodations, and that, too, at so lato a
period of timo in the campaign that under
tho most favorablo circumstances thero was
not sufficient time left for party organization.
Whatever may havo been Mr. Miller's mo
tives for convening thu Democratic conven
tion at tho furthest extremity of tho Stato
and at so very lato a period as tlio 8th of
Scptc!uber,hc, by so doing, displayed a want
of judgment. Tho Republican convention
having met in May and mado their nomina
tions, overy consideration of sound policy
should have Induced tho summoning of the
Democratic convention to meet at tho latest
in July lost; and, from tho fact that Harris
burg is the seat of government and the
central railroad point of tlio State, amply
supplied with tho best accommodation, both
for tho convention and its individual mem
bers, more cheaply reached from all parts of
tho commonwealth than any other city iu tho
State, tho convention should have beo:i con
vened at Harrisburg in the interest of the
party and of ita individual members. Tlio
practico which baa' lately obtained of ped
dling tho Democratic stato convention from
town to town, in remote, out of tho way
places, void of proper accommodations,
without regard to tho comfort of the dele
gates or tho euormous expenses to which
they aro gratuitously exposed, clashes with
the dictates of common fairuais and of com
mmon sense, and is calculated to excite
among tlio people suspicious of dark in
trigues which should not attach to the
leaders of a great party.
We agreo with tbo Patriot that the chair
man of tlio Democratic Stato Central Com
mitteo should bo appointed by tho conven
tion, not by tho candidates, and that his
headquarters should bo at Harrisburg.
As regards organization for tho campaign
of 1870, it should commenco immediately, on
tbo basis of opposition to tho ro-oloctlon of
U. S.Grant to third jtcrtn and tako in at onco
every Republican sincerely opposed to a
third term. Tbo first step towards this or
ganisation should bo immediate prosecution,
under tho direction of tho Democratic State
Central Committee, of the Individuals con
cerned iu tho election frauds perpetrated at
the lato election lu Philadelphia, Luzerno
and other localities. It Is tho impunity al
lowed every year by the Democratic party to
tho avowed Republican perpetrators of elec
tion fauijs, which is tho main causo of the
demoralisation and discouragement of thous
ands of DemocraU who liave become dis
gusted with, tho baro-fuced effrontery with
which their political opponents are per
mitted year fffcr year to cheat them out of
their votes,
It Is the imperative duty of the Demo
cratic Stato Ceutral Conimlttoe to abate this
great wrong. Their predecessors havo
shamefully neglected that moit Important
duty. Hut In this liurajnent political crWs,
which must decide the lato of our Republi
can Institutions, wo lnvoko tho patriotism,
courago and energy of our State Central
Committee, and especially of Its chairman,
to tako tho first step iu the efficient organi
zation of tho Democratic party, and thus lo
Infiuo new life and fresh courago In the
hearts of tho devoted patriots,vho,ycar after
year, without oven tlio Incitement of hope,
havo marched lo tho polls and battled In
vindication of the Democratic creed, al
though cxpcrlenco taught them that t heir
leaders havo quietly succumbed under tho
monstrous accumulations of flagrant election
frauds without an effort to punish tho guilty
or vindicate their own cause.
Mr. Chairman of tho Democratic State
Central Committee, organizo your party In
tho prosecution of tho perverted villains
whoso trade It Is to cheat tho peoplo out of
their sovcrigu rights, and you will havo
opened to your party tho road to emancipa
tion and victory.
It is disgusting and disgraceful to hear
after each election, in this once respectable
commonwealth, Individuals and newspapers
complalnlng,llko crying babies, of notorious
election frauds, amounting to thousands of
votes, sufficient to exalt and Install minority
candidates over tho legitimate choice of the
people, and yet not 0110 organized body
found to enforco tho law against tho well
known perpetrators of such monstrous mls-
leeds. Democrats, rouso yourselves! Now
is tho time to act and ORGANIZE I
"AN OLD DEMOCRAT."
"(Jetting tho Voto Out."
Considering tlio actlvu and earnest nature of
the recent election canvass in Pennsylvania,
it is surprising to see how largo a proportion
of tho voters of tho Commonwealth stayed
at home, or neglected to go tho polls. The
aggregate voto issixhundrcdand nine thous
and, five hundred andsixty-four (009 504)
not so great an aggregato by moro than 03.000
as wascastatthoGovernor'selection in 1872,
and not so many votes by moro than 40.000
as wero cast for President in 18G8 seven
years ago. 'Making allowance for tho sick
and thoso absent from homo on business and
otherwise, and for tho increase of popula
tion since 1872, the absentees at tho recent
election must number from eighty to ninety
thousand. Thero was thus a great failure
all round in tho strenuous efforts made to
"get out tho full vote." About one voter
in every eightornine failed to respond lo
tho appeals mado to "rally" him. The Dem
ocratic voto is not so heavy by nearly 30,000
as it was for Auditor General seven years ago,
and the Republican vote is not so heavy by
nearly 38.000 as it was for President in that
same year 1SG8. Tho Inchest accrecate
voto ever cast in the Stato was that for
Govenor in 1872, when it was G72.344 ; tho
highest Republican vote ever ant by Penn
sylvania was that for Hartranft in the same
year,353.387 ; and the highest Democratic
voto in tho Commonwealth was that in 180S
for tho Democratic candidato for Auditor
General, 321.739.
