ST01' AND TlllNKI
Men are governed by impulse to a great
extent, and arc too apt to be led astray by
new leaders and new doctrine. It Is ao i
Ihe Church, and so in the Slate. New re
ligious sects are started because of some al
leged evil In the old ones, but history shows
that in alt such cases new evils have arisen
to talc tho lace of thewo sought to be avoid
ed. So in politic-, now and then, we have
a new party. Knownotbingism had lis day
and alter accomplishing nothing it died
naturalkdenth. Other movements have been
s arted and after sweeping over the country
like an epidemic have fallen of their own
weight because they were not built on a firm
foundation.
To-day we have the Greenback party,
financial panic came upon the land five years
ago. Industry was prostrated, n.anufacto
ties were closed. The cry went up for bread
and there was none to give. In this condi
tion of the country a few men who had been
unsuccessful as leaders of the old parties saw
a chance to benefit themselves. They took
advantage of the misfortunes of the peo-
pole and came forward with the cry "wo cau
give you bread ; we will start your mills and
improve your crops, and revive business,
What you vant is more money. Give us tjti
control of the government and we wilt fill
your pockets with greenbacks, and you shall
live in ease and plenty." Sucb a bait throw
out at such a time was likely to be nibbled at
and ttiese leaders knew it. Without stopping
to think huw the object could be accomp
lished, or what the result would be if the
couutry were Hooded with millions of Ir
redeemable paper, many men have swallow
ed this bait, book and all, and have taken up
the cry, "Uive us Greenbacks."
In throwing out theirjiait, these acute
leaders saw one difficulty in their way,name
ly, the tact that all voters belonged to on
of the two old parties, and it was theref.
necessary to raise a cry against them.
So
tbey accused the old parties of having
brought all this desolation upon the land
and asserted that the new party alone could
save the nation. They did not atop to thin
that the Democratic party has not bad con
trot of the government for eighteen years,
Mow, then, ctn it be responsible?
Are these leaders sincere ? Look where
you will, when you find a Greenback chief
tain there will you find a candidate for office.
More, you will find a bankrupt, who has
shown himself incapable of managing sue
cessfully.his own financial affairs, and
nine cases out of ten you will find a man
who bos attempted to be a leader in one
the old parties and been repudiated by that
party. They are men who have been can
didates for office in the old parties, and
failed, and are now seeking to form a new
organization where their chances will
better. Little care they for the bread they
promise to put in tbe mouths of others.
is theirown pockets tbey are seeking to fill
What does the Greenback party propose
Why, to issue greenbacks to as unlimited
extent, and make them a legal tender for a
debts, this paper money to be based on the
credit of the government, not redeemable in
gold or silver, but to be worth just what tbe
face calls for, because the government stamp
is on them.
Stop and think 1 Is the credit of the na
tion any belter than that of an individual f
If the individual has assetts with which
to meet his liabilities his credit Is good. If
not, he is insolvent and his paper Is at a dls
"count, or entirely worthless. The govern
ment is In precisely tbe same situation, and
me law makers cannot make its credit good
by passing a resolution declaring its .irre
deemable currency to be money, any more
man a merchant can mate his notes good by
declaring tbem to be worth their ftce value.
We havo not space now to discuss this sub
ject further,
We ask the Democrats of Columbia vountv
simply to stop and think. There is no pOs
nihility of the election of the Greenback
uadidate for Governor. Every Democratic
vote cast for Mason is un Innt (,.. mil ,.,
F'.cooseouent!v one in favor of Hint n,l an
tvltu State Senator, Congressman, and Rep.
'exntativee. If you want Camerou returned
toUhe Jolted States Senate vote for the
Grtenba'k candidate for fttnta Rnttnr
i a1 republican,aud nill receive the republi-
I can-support. If you want to aid Cameron
further, vote for the Greenback candidate for
tbe Legislature, one of whom w.a Republi
can. (
We are now just beginning to see the end
of the hard times. If you want to keep the
country prostrate fur another period of five
years or longer, vote the Greenback ticket.
K M yu wut to flood the country with Irre
deemable currency that will put prices back
where tbey were during tbe war when a dol
lar greenback was .worth about forty cents,
vote the Greenback ticket. If you want a
financial panic more distressing than this
country has ever known, vote for Mason and
tbe greenback candidates. If you want to
perpetuate Republican misrule give Uoyt a
vote by voting for Mason,
If you want honest government, If you
want honest money, If you desire" tbe over
throw of the Cameron family, if you want
prosperity and a return to a sound financial
policy, vote for Andrew II. Dill, and tbe
whole Democratic ticket, and when you stop
to think abou( it you wilt have nothing to
regret.
A Republican speaker recently said that
it was treason to leave the republican party
and that Ex- Governor Curtln was guilty of
tbe crime and was now knocking at tbe
back door of Ibe Democratic paity for office,
What does be call tbe action of bis party In
nominating General Reaurfgard for Con
gress In Louisiana J It was an invitation
to an ex-rebel to walk into the front door of
Ibe Republican parly, Governor Curtln left
the Republicans on account of their corrup
tion, and Reaurrgard wouldn't join it for the
aime reason.
JACK KKI10E AMD THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.
A correspondent of the Philadelphia IXmet
writing from Pittsburg under date of Octo
ber 101b, says t
"The bargaining for the Mollle Magulie
vote In Pennsylvania In 1875 Is a matter of
history. Its facts are not disputed by any
body Informed on thesubject,and the proph
esy of Jack Kehoe when the money was paid
over that "the old man at llarrlsburg will
never dare hang me, now," has been verified
In every particular, ll has been tbe habit of
Republicans who wert compelled to confess
that there was an arrangement for the trans-
fer of the Mollle vote to Hartranft in that
year, to say that all the buying was done by
the local politicians of Schuylkill without
the knowledge or assistance of any outside,
This explanation, If true, might relieve the
State Republican organization of tbe odium
which such a thing must carry with it. But
it is not true. It is a fact that the impor
tant question of buying this vote with mon.
ty was discussed at length and earnestly by
the Republican State committee in the cam'
palgn ot 1875. The proposition for the pur
chase as presented to thecummiUee met with
opposition from a lew of the members, nota
bly Mr. William II. Kcmble, of Pbiladel
phia, who vigorously protested against the
pormancnt disgrace and injury which such
action, if consummated, would bring upon
the Republican party, lie was voted down
however, by a considerable majority of the
members, and a fund of between four and
five thousand dollars was immediately pro
vided, which was passed over, through Gen
eral Siegfried and other local politicians ol
Schuylkill, to work its infamous purpose,
Colonel Henry M. Uoyt, tho present Repub
lican candidate for Governor, was chairman
of the State committee which decided upou
this policy and provided tbe money. He
will not deny the accuracy of this statement
nor will any member of his committee of
that year.
TUB WORK IJI ALLEGHENY.
Not only was it the intention to influence
the Mollle vote of the anthracite coal region
through the secret Bociety kuown as the
Ancient Order of Hibernians the members
of which in three counties have since been
excommunicated by tho Catholic Church
but through the same order it was hoped to
make the same bargain effective in diverting
the Irish vote from the Democratic ticket in
this part of the State. The Ancient Order
of Hibernians is very strong here, estimated
to number some eight or nine thousand in
Allegheny county and the bituminous mi
ing districts surrounding, but tbe effjrtto
control this vote for Hartranft in 1875 was
ot much of a success, although a few mem
bers were picked up. It failed because there
was not enough meney sent heje ; because
the sympathy between the order in thl
section of the State and the MollieMaguires
was not surScIeutly developed, and because It
Is almost Impossible to get Irishmen I
crowds to vote the Republican ticket. Gov
ernor Hartranft'g messenger, Delaney, did
all in bis power, however, to accomplish
that result. He has returned to the work
this year, although, in a slightly different
way, ana with tbe benefit of some expert
ence to help him. His chief instrument
here in the labor of selling the whole Irish
vote is Mr. J. J. Gallagher, of McKeesport
who succeeded Jack Kehoe as the State del
egate ot the Ancient Order of Hibernians
Gallagher has been very active in this mat
ter, and he is making use ot the situation in
which Kehoe U placed to work upon these
belonging to the order. Understanding from
previous experience that it will not be easy
to turn the vote over to tbe Republicans, he
is disciplining the members to "save a broth
er's life" meaning Kehoe by voting the
Greenback ticket. Anything to take this
vote from its traditional affiliation will help
the cause of Uoyt, and it is easier to get it
around to the Greenbackers than to turn it
entirely over.
THE GENERAL FEELING.
Huw much may have been accomplished
io this direction cannot be known with any
degree of accuracy, but so much has been
done that the Democratic organizations here
are beginning to (eel tbe defection of the
Irish voters, for the first time in the history
of the party. It will not be an easy matter
to overcome tbe trouble, but its undoing is
being undertaken, as a matter of course, and
the impression is that before election these
people will be able to see what efforts are be
ing made to trade on their voters and sell
tbem out in gangs, on the pretext of saving
tbe life of a murderer who appears already
to have made his life secure by a previous
bargain. In going about among tbe poli
ticians of tbe State I have found more quiet
but serious comment on this Kehoe cose than
is suspected, and particularly among Repub
licans who are iu tbe habit of valuing tbe
reputation of their party. At Maucb Chunk
early in September, I bad a long talk with
General Charles Albright, who was associ
ated in the prosecution of Keboe, and be
gave an Interesting history of the case. In
n lain., hia rafi). P..n... lllU ..1,1.
VlUWUg 111. .VW.M. utUll.l ..IWIIgut Dt.,1.
"Should tbe Governor withhold the dcatQi
warrant in tbe cose of Kehoe, it would sur
round tbe Executive with the gravest sus
picion," General Albright has since been
noniiuated for Congress by tbe Republicans
of tbe Eleventh district; and the Governor
has so far withheld the death warrant in the
Kehoe case. There is probably not a Re
publican In the State who has watched tbe
course of events in the matter of this lead
ing Mollle murder but feels that the Gover
nor has surrounded himself with suspicion ;
many are free iu saying so, and the use
which is still being made of that relebrated
criminal, particularly bere.is not doing any
thing to mend matters."
After mature deliberation we baveconclu-
ded to insert announcements of indepen
dent candidates. We have come to this con
clusion on the ground that as a public jour
nal It is our duty to insert all advertisements
that contain nothing of an offensive charac
ter, that are offered by responsible parties.
While publishing the notices of independent
candidates we do not wish to be understood
as favoring any; movement of the kind, and
have fully expressed our views on tbe sub
ject. Such movements create dissensions in
the party) and rarely ifever.resull in any good
to the irregular candidate. We advUe our
readers to stick to the ticket as the Cunven-
tion made it.
Congressional Confcrtnre,
Hazleton, October 1C The Democratic
conferees of Carbon, Columbia, Luzerne and
Monroe met to-day, Mr. Droadhead, of Car
bon, presiding, Tbe IteamUb-Trimmer par
ty, In session at Scranton, have telegraphed
among those attending tbe name of Bernard
McManus, wbo has deserted them and at
tends brre as a looker-on. Up to half-past
seven o'clock Ihe conferees bad balloted 230
times. A recess until 8 o'clock was taken.
The vote stood generally 9 for Klotz and 3
for Ilrockway ; necessary to nominate, 10,
Ten more ballots were taken without success
and tlie conference adjourned until Wednes-
day at 9 o'clock.
The Conference System.
Something ought to be done to change the
conference system ot nominating congress
men. Theoretically it Is a proper enough
way for the several counties In a congress
ional district to settle upon their nominee,
but practically It does not work well, as wo
have never had occasion to bo so often re
minded as we have been during Ibis year.
There always has been embarrassment In It,
and it frequently has resulted in the selec
tion of Inferior men ; but there seems to be
ometbiog la the political air this full which
makes it especially troublesome to settle tbe
right man for congress. It Is quite the fash
ion for conferees to meet day after day for
weeks, and to number their Ineffective bal
lots by the hundreds. It iscfrtalnly not a
creditable thing for men to do, and reflects
very severely upon their common sense and
prtriotic judgment. It ought not to be dlffi
cult for men of ordinary capacity to select
the best man from among the candidates ;
acd it is not. Hut the trouble Is that tbey
do not conceive it their duty to nominate
the bat man, because they have themselves
been chosen In the Interest nf n particular
candidato who has succeeded in securing the
endorsement of blscounty. The selection
of the conferees is entrusted to him ; and
bis object is to choose such as will adhere
staunchly to him, and not such as would in
cllnc, after giving him a fair chance for the
nomination, to vote for the best man. The
inherent vice of the system lies just in this
control, giving to tbe county's candidate
tho selection of conferees. They thus be
come, In the conference, the representatives
of the candidate and not of their party. It
miy be assumed that the party in a county
would not cling to its first choice for the
nomination with anything like the persist
ency with which its conferees stick to him.
They would bo more yielding and more rea
sonable and would not be content to make
a senseless exhibition of obstinacy in behalf
of any man. They would look to the parly
good ; whereas, the conferee looks only to
the fortune nf the man who has selected him
to do his bidding. It is a humiliating pnsi
sion for him to occupy, and must be an ex
ceedingly annoying one to a man of sense
and self respect ; for such a one would feel
that, while he was making an ass of himself,
be could scarcely help It, without subjecting
himself to an imputation of treachery to bis
candidate. Such men, therefore, do not of
ten become conferees unless in behalf of
same one who really should be given tbe
nomination, and for whom they can labor
with a clear conscience and the public ap
proval.
If only such men were candidates before a
conference there would be no difficulty in
making the nomination ; for they might be
relied upon not to press themselves with un
due persistency and to Interpose their person
al ambition against the selection of an equal
ly worthy candidate. But the majority of
candidate! are men who are able to control a
county convention, but who wolud be of lit
tle account in Congress. Sometimes the as
pirant is a great rascal who would really dis
credit the district ; and it is. especially dan
Borons to trut the power of selecting confer
ees in the bands of such u man, who would be
ready, if he could not make bis point, to sell
out the votes be controlled to some other
scamp who bad the money to buy them,
Tbe Democratic party in the state bos suf
fered quite enough from discreditable nom
Inations thus made and from the distraction
caused by tbe contentions of unworthy men
who subordinate tbe party good to their set
fish aims. Is the evil without a remedy
Cannot something be done to bring quick
ly about an agreement of the party in
cich district upon its candidato 1 There
does not seem to bo any great difficulty in the
way. It should be taken for granted that
conferees wbo cannot agree at their first meet
ing are not fit for their trust ; and they should
in case of such failure be thereby divested of
thier authority. Tbe question might then be
referred back to tbe convention, or to the
standing committees of tbe party in Ihe sev
eral counties, or to some other tribunal. The
ameuduients in the present method which
we insist on is that conferrees first selected
sboald not have power to sit and ballot and
bargain -ud dawdle to the disgust of every
body and to the disgrace of the party. Their
power should be sharply limited to one day
of conference; and if tbey caunot then agree
they should make way for other men to try
tbtir bands at making for the party a cred
itable nomination. Aspiringcandidatcs and
their friends should be taught that the Dem
ocratic party does not exist to nourish their
ambition. Lancaster Intelligencer.
A Ureat Dank Failure.
THE CITV OF OLAbOOW BANK CLOSE!) ITS
DOORS WITH LIAIHLITIES OF
$50,000,000.
The liabilities of the City of Glasgow
Brtilr, which closed its doors are stated at
$50,000,000. The liability of the sharehold
er Is unlimited. One.hundredpound
shares of the bank were dealt in at over 200,
and withi n a week at 237. The bank was
established in 1833, and bad fifty to sixty
branches. This is the heaviest bank failure
In Scotland since l&iff, when this concern
also suspended.
The other Scotch banks were asked for as.
sistance, but, after examining the books at a
meeting, refused to do more than redeem
tbe note circulation of the City of Glasgow
Rank, which is stated at three and a quarter
millions. ltie failure has caused great ex
citement throughout Scotland and in tbe
London Stock Exchange, where there was a
heavy fall in Scotch railroad securities in
consequence of a pressure of Scotch holders
to sell.
The failure of the bank is generally at
tributed to its resources being locked up in
bills, shares and debentures of various kinds
that were not readily convertible.
The Echo says the failure is very import
ant, and is not less than a national disaster;
but as usual in sucb cases it has been fore
shadowed by innumerable occurrences, and
it is hardly likely that it will do more than
bring down the commercial firms which are
Involved in the bill transactions which have
overwhelmed the bank.
The death wanant of Jack Kehoe baa not
yet been signed by Governor Hartranft and
It is said will not be until after the election.
It begins to look as though there was an
agreement between Hartranft and the Mol
lie Magulres that Kehoe will not be hung if
they vote the Republican ticket. If there is
no such understanding the Governor is, post
ponlng the jiecution until after the elec
tion to keep the friends of Keboe under the
belief that no actlou will be taken, so tbey
will vote tbe Republican ticket. The con
duct of the Executive In this matter Is a dis
grace to tbe state, and thus trifling with a
man s life for political purposes is an out
rage on humanity.
Tbe United States Supreme Court has
decided that unintentional overvaluation of
property insurod against fire does not vitiate
a policy, even though tbe policy specifies
that it is void In case of false twr aring by
the person taking it out.
WASHINGTON LETTER.

With a loss ot thrco Congressmen In Ohio,

cals in capturing tho ncit House is not en
couraging. Resides this loss in number of

and Indiana iu event of tho choico of l'resi-
nt bcin thrown Into tlu House a not
very unlikely contingency by the wuy.
It is possib'e that in some of tho Novem
ber states tlicro will exist substantially tho
same sort of legislature, as in Maine, tuado
up of Democrats, Republicans, nud men who
havo hcrotoforo belonged to taeh of these
parties, but were not elee'ed on either of tho
party tickets. Thcro will then bo on oppor
tunity to improvo the membership of the
United States Sonato, against tho wishes of
the class of politicians to which Ilauiliu,
tlowc, Cameron and others belong. If in
all these cases Democrats arc unable to secure
the election of men of their own party they
may at l-u.-t :ii! iu atiriug the Moody shirt
pulitici.ins and kiv'iiij; to the u nutty tho ser
vices of lucii of ability and ol' broad and pat'
riotic views. Let tlioiu at lea-t retire to pri-

who have becoiin final in the idea tliut one
section of the couutry ha not tho tamo rights
as another Miction That will dispose oi'sov
oral men like M owe, of Wisconsin; Cameron,
of Pennsylvania and Christiancy of Michi
gan. If it should strike at Conlling in New
lork, I dou t believe tho country would suf
fer. This is the grand opportunity to blit-
crato sectionalism from the Senate. Other
troubles will cure themselves al'ier a tiiuc, but
this is deadly and requires treatment.
Sccictary Schurz is reported as expressing
tho belief that his speech at Cincinnati had a
considerable effect in carrying the two city Dis
tricts tor tlio Republican!, and in giving that
party their large vote on tho Slate ticket.
Doubtless the Secretary is'right. He it a most
attractive sp-aker, and the largeGerman vote
in Ciuciutiiiati uiade his presence peculiaily ef
fective Me spoke only after repeated urging
by Mr. Hajes, who bad been over the ground
and was utiaid of the result. Tho Secretary
wishes, hesays.to devote his whole time to the
duties of bis ullice, and no ordinary temptation
will take bun away lroui it. He now propos
es a further reorganization of the Interior De
partment, but may not act until after the No
vcuibcr elections. Candidates for the office ol

States adopting uniform laws eonccrniug tho

which the General Govcrment seems to havo
no littht to net, and even if it possessed such
right it would seem better that the right be
exercised The States should act. It is not
becoming or pniper, or consistent with good
will between the Stotes, that the rcceut de
mand on the part of tho Govcnor of South
Carolina, for Kimptou, and tbe rt fusai of the
Governor ofMassachu'etts.should bo repeated,
Uniformity of laws on the snlj-ctis possible

Democratic l'latform.
The democracy of Pennsylvania unanimously de
clare :
That tho republican party, Its measures and Its
men, are responsible for the financial distress, the
misery una me. want. umi. now exist ;
It has had control of tho legislation of tho country.
nnd has enacN'd and perpetuated a policy that has
enriched tho few ontl Impoverished tho many ;
Its system of finance has been one of favor to
moneyed monopoly, of unequal taxation, of exetnp-
iiuu ui iiusBCB, ,n iiiku imt-iui luieresi. aim oi re
morseless contraction, which has destroyed every
lis present nota upon reaern
by fraud, nerluryand forgery.
l'MI:i (Ill-Hi lMil K.IC l-Wlt'lUJIUCUl! IU VIWI,
deral power was secured
Its laws are ttnlust
and It practices Immoral ; they distress the peo-
(iin uuu uepuuj lucii Biiuauiuiu,
The only remedy for ttteso evils Is an entire
change of policy and the dethronement ot those In
power.
And we resolve that further contraction of the
volume ot United states legal tender notes Is unwise
and unnecessary. They should bo received for cus
toms il utles and reissued as fast as recelted.
Gold sllter and United states legal tender notes
at par therewith, are Just basts for paper circula
tion. A closo connection of the federal government with
the business Interests of the people, through nation
al banks, K-nds to monopoly and centralization, but,
In changing tho system, uniformity of notes, securi
ty to the note holder, and protection of tho capital
Invested, should bo provided for.
Treasury notes.lssuid In cxthango rorbonds,!iear
Ing a low rate of Interest, Is tho best form In which
tho credit of the government cau be given to a paper
currency.
Labor and capital hao equal demands upon end
responsibilities to law. Commerce and manufac
tures should be encouraged, so tint steady work and
fair wages may bo y leldod to labor, whilst safety ot
Investment and moderate returns for Its uso belong
to capital. Violence or breach of order In support ot
the real or supposed rights of either should bo promt
ly suppressed by the strong urm of the Jaw.
Tho Republican party, by Its legislation In 1672,
which reduced tho tariff on bituminous coal front
$1.20 to 73 cents )er ton, and upon Iron, steel, wool,
metats, paper, glass, leather, and all manufactures
of each ot them ten per cent , struck a fatal blow ut
tue lnausrries anu luoor oi l-ennsytvama.
Tho public lands are the common property of the
people, and they should not be sold to speculators
nor granted to ruUroad or other corporations, but
should be reserved for homesteads for actual set
tlers. our public debt should bo held at home, and the
bonds representing It should bo of small denomina
tions, in which the savings of the masses may bo
safely Invested.
Thorough, investigation Into the electoral frauds
of 1878 should bo made, fraud should bo oxposod,
truth vindicated and criminals punished; but wo
oppose any attack upon tho 1'rfsldeutl.UUtleas dan
gerous to our Institutions and fruitless la its re
sults. Tho republican party, controlling the legislation ot
the state, has refused to execute many of tho re
forms ot the new constitution ; and among other
things, It has neglected and refused.

To give to all equal means for transporting raw

points as they may prefer ; and
To publish in good falttt monthly statements of

tub repuuitcun party creates new oiuct-s una enor

machinery.
