It was repeatedly asserted during tLe
noent political canvass, both by the Johns
town Tribune and Voice, that there then
was and for year heretofore had been in
ristenoe what is styled an "Ebensburg
King." It was charged that this imagin
ary HiDg" is corrupt in all its purposes
and operations, and that it is a well organ
ised political cabal, whose sols and entire
purpose is to control political nominations
lu this county and to rob and plunder the
people. R. L. JomfSTOir, Esq., and Jonx
A. Blair, ex-sheriff of the oounty, were
declared to be the head and front of this
dreadful combination. Of course all this
political abase was manufactured and ut
tered for a special purpose. It may, per
kapa, hare had its influence in some parts
f the oounty so far as the county ticket
was concerned, but it ia none the less a
falsehood. We hare known R. L. Johs-
long enough and well enough to say
that he has always manifested and proven
himself to be a gentleman, not only person
ally, but politically. Did he ever commit
a dishonorable act, political or otherwise,
In all his life? If he ever did, or if J ores
A- Blaih, or J. K. IIitb, or any other
gentleman named as a member of the myth
ical Ring ever did each an act, let it be
published to the world, and then, if the
proof bo forthcoming, let the guilty one
fall and be forever dishonored in the esti
aation of all honest men. But it cannot
snd it will not be proven. The three gen
tlemen referred to above, prominent dem
ocrats all of them, we have taken the lib
erty to name simply because they have
ci.o-iaHv aine-leii out a.s ohict of rr.
oual and political defamation. "VS e know
and feel that they can outlive all the as
prian that have been or may hereafter
fee cast upon their fair fame, but neverthe
less have felt constrained to repel the das
tardly attacks that have been made upon
tii sir political characters while at tb same
ttm ws repulse and utterly deny the silly
and in sane charge that there does now or
ver did exist what the Johnstown radical
jrM Is pleased to term the Ebeusburg

Ji Glance at tAs Future.
The leaders of the Radical party in this
ounty boast, and even offer to bet money,
that Grajtt will carry Cambria at the elec
tion on next Tuesday week. The editor
f the Johnstown Tribune, with his accus
tomed, cool and proverbial impudence, as
serts that such will be the result. "We
think we know the integrity of the Democ
racy of this county, and that they will teach
the editor of the Tribune, and all such
defenders of Grant and Hartranft, that
Eoracs Greeley, will receive as large a
rote in Cambria county at the November
lection as Buckalew received on the 8th
slay of the present month.
We admit that the result of the October
lection in Pennsylvania disappointed all
our expectations, but that it is decisive of
the election in November for President we
trrterly deny. Let every Democrat in
Cambria county regard it as his solemn
and imperative political duty to go to the
lection on the 5th of November and vote
for FIoracb Greeley. There must be no
such word as "surrender." That was the
reply of the "Old Guard" of Napoleon at
Waterloo to the victorious tioops of Wel
tntOTOK. We trust that the Democracy,
not only of this State, but of Cambria
ounty, will fight the battle out to the bit
ter end until the November election.
We publish in another column an article
from the Philadelphia Age on the question
of not voting. It is sensible, prudent and
to the point, and we hope every Democrat
in Cambria county will carefully heed the
suggestions of the Age. Why should we
urrender? We can, if we will, elect
O&eklet and Browr.
An article elsewhere from the most re
liable and able Democratic paper in the
Union, the New York World, tells the
whole story. 80 far as the political con
clusions of the World are expressed, we
recommend them to the careful considera
tion of all our Democratio readers, and ask
them to rote in November as they did in
October, and we will be victorious. The
battle is not lost. The fight will be along
the whole line in Is ovember, from Maine
to Oregon, and as Lord Nblsow proclaimed
from his flag-ship at the battle of Trafal
gar that on that day England expected
very man to do his duty, so we say that
on the 5th of November every Democrat
In Pennsylvania is expected to do his full
and entire duty, no matter what the diffi
culties and apparent obstacles to success
that are to be overcome. Let no Demo
crat falter in the good work, but remem
ber that the darkest hour is just before the
dawning. Take courage, then, work ma
fully, do your duty as becomes cood eiti
cans and earnest, hopeful Democrats, and '
H will yet be well. i

An Ebensburg lawyer violated the elec
tion laws at the late election by going to
too polls in Barr township and there elec
tioneering for Samcel Hesrt. An Act
had been passed on the 19th day of June,
1871, entitled " An Act to incorporate the
Rlacktick Navigation and Improvement
Company," and this man appeared before
the people of Barr township to induce them
to believe that Mr. IIesrt had nothing to
do with the passage of that law, and that
the connection of his name therewith was
the basest of misrepresentation. Let us
we how far the facts of the case bear out
the assertions of this astute lawyer. The
record will show that instead of injustice
haviug been done Mr. IIery, the whole
truth, had it been known to the voters of
Barr township, would have induced them
to repudiate him by a large majority. We
give herewith the Act passed by Mr. Rose
and the Supplement thereto passed by Mr.

MR. HENRY'S 8TTPLEMENTAL ACT.
A BCTFLEM'F.NT to an Act entitled "An Act
to incorporate the Black Lick Navigation
and Improvement Company," approved
June 19th,y71.
SECTION 1. lie it enacted by the Senate and
JIoviuof Representative of the Commonvealth
of J'ennsylvania in General Assembly met, and
and it i hereby enacted by the authority of the
ame. That so much of section four as relates
to the words, "all tributaries of the Cone

,h Black Lick creek."

ered to erect piers and make such other im
provements at convenient points on said

charge the one-tenth of cne cent per foot,
board measure.
Section 4. That so much of section five as
relates to the words, "not exceeding the rate
of one and one-half cents per mile," shall
read, "not to exceed two aud on-half cents
per mile."
Section 5. That all acts or parts of acts
inconsistent with the law to which this is a
supplement and with this supplement, be
and the name are hereby ropealed. That this
act shall not give the Company incorpora
ted by the act to which this is a supplement
any right to interfere with the rights and
privileges of the Two Lick Navigation and
Improvement Company on Two Lick crek;
and in erecting piers and making suchothr
improvements as authorized by this act, no
injury shall be done to any private righfs in
the water iower of the said streams, or to
private property along the same.
Approved 13th April, 1872.
It will be 6een that Mr. Henry's law in
creases the toll from one and a half cents
per mile for each one thousand feet to two
find a half cents per mile for the same num
ber of feet.
But Mr. Henry's main new feature is
on Pete IIerdic's plan of taking tribute
from every man who presumes to float a
stick of timber on his own stream. It will
be remarked that the company hat a right
to erect an unlimited numlier of piers or
fixtures to catch the timber, and then'can
exact ten cents fr eac7t thousand feet from
the owner. The company can easily have
enough of these places, when taken in con
nection with the toll chargeable, to exact
more than one-half the real value of the
timber caught at theee piere.
We pronounce this bill, and more espe
cially Mr. Henry's supplement, an outrage
upon every man residing along the waters
of Blacklick, inasmuch as it takt s his pro
perty, the result of his hard labor, without
his consent, and confers it on monopolists
from Lancaster, Harrisburg, and elsew here.
The election is over and we have no pur
pose now but to present the truth and put
the people of Blacklick and Barr townships
on their guard, ho as to enable them to
take the necessary steps for having this
odious legislation repealed. Mr. Henry
well kuows that a thorough knowledge
of this act would have lost him the vote of
every man whose rights are thus shameful
ly trampled upon, and the best thing he
can do, in this one instance at least, is to
bhake off the speculators in land and labor
who make use of his popularity to accom
plish their own selfish purposes.
Nothing has yet been done under Mr.
Henry's supplement, and those interested
should at once petition for its repeal. If
they do they may be sure that the obuox
ious act will be obliterated from the statute
book, for Mr. Henry will not dare go coun
ter to their wishes.
Aud now what will the Herald man say
about "THE LIE" somebody ha induced
him to utter? Of course he will not retract
that is more than could be expected from
such a source but nobody cares whether
he does or not. He dare not deny, how
ever, that the most obnoxious part of the
bill is its supplement, and that that was
passed during Mr. Henry's terra and was
signed by the Governor on the l?th day of
April. Ib72. Further comment is uncalled
for.

The Xejct Legislature.
JS'of Votivg.
An assemblage at Harrisburg, which, ac
cording to the I'atriot of that city, was en
tirely insignificant in every particular, has
issued a maniftcto recommending the Dem
ocrats of Pennsylvania not to vote at the
November election. This is rather a lame
and impotent conclusion to the movement
that has constantly promised to furni&h can
didates better than those nominated by the
Democratic Convention at Ilaltimoro. So
many people always neglect the duty of vot
ing, so much urging, drumming and trans
porting to the polls is always necessary to
get out a full vote, that anybody wb- may
take upon himself to recommend people not
to vote, may afterwards complacently as
sume that he has swayed tho; e whontLhcr
heeded nor heard his advice. Having, how
ever, given such advice a place in our news
columns, wc will add that we never saw,
and hope we never shall see, a political con
juncture in which it would be desirable for
an American citizen to neglect his duty
and refuse to vote. While we will not af
fect a confidence of carrying this State in
Novemlter Against the agencies that are yet
in a vigor that has grown w ith impunity, we
believe that the spirit is still alive in other
States to continue the Presidential contest
with a manly spirit that sees success as
Issible, and never ceases to strive for it.
The issue now is not the ancient opinions
of Mr. Greeley or the expediency of his
nomination at Baltimore. What we had
to say on those points we said before the
nomination was made. Since the nomina
tion our candidate has displayed a vigor,
ability and public spirit that have gone far
to remove all sincere objections to him.
Very few Democrats have taken any part
in the illusory and impracticable movement
to put some othercandidate in the field a
movement that, as most sagacious men ex
pected, has ended in smoke. Many Dem
ocrats there are who have enteitained the
purpose of not voting, and this not from
any one's suggestion, but as tho result of
personal dissatisfaction or discouragement.
We ask them to reconsider any such pur
pose. The citizen's function is one too im
portant to be lightly neglected. He who
forms in himself or encourages in others a
habit of not voting, withdraws himself
from his share in carrying on a popular
government. If we expect to overcome
fraud and re-establish free and pure elec
tions, it must be by asserting and exalting
the importance of the vote of every citizen,
not by slighting it or voluntarily resigning
it. There wasnever a conjuncture in which
free civil government more needed the
open, manly support of its true friends.
There will be a peculiar signilicance in
every vote cast for the Democratic Elector
al ticket in November. It will be the free
man's utterance against fraud, corruption
and despotism. It willleep up to the last
hour the contest on our soil, and not leave
Radicalism free to spread its repeaters over
Iicifli boring Hloton. This im our rioir ,."
the matter, and we never uttered with more
earnestness the old American call to duty:
"To the polls, fellow citizens, to the polls!"

The Prospect of Scccessi. There is
no reason to despair of the States that
gave Democratic majorities in their last
elections. The following carefully com
piled table, prepared and printed for an
other purpose in the early part of June,
gives the date of the latest elections which
had then been held, the Democratic ma
jority in each State at those elections, and
the number of electoral votes to which the
several States are entitled. This table is
well worth considering :

Now, supposing the Democratic party
able to hold its own in these States, it is
not difficult to discover a way to success in
this Presidential contest. To these 138
electoral votes we may safely add New
York, which, with its 3o electoral votes,
increases the number to 173. It requires
only 184 votes to elect a President ; and
there are sources enough from which we
could make up the other 11 with proper
exertion. Connecticut, which the Grant
party, carried last spring "by the skiu of
their teeth," might give us 6 of the requi
site 11, leaving only 5 to be sought else
where. We have good chances in Louisi
ana, which has 8 electoral votes making
three more than we need. We have also
chances in Arkansas, in spite of the dis
franchisement, which would increase the
Democratic majority in the Electoral Col
leges from 3 to i). Then there is no reason
why we should quite despair of Illinois and
Ohio, either of which alone added to the
Democratic States would give us a hand-

Repurlicans who voted for Buckalew in
preference to Hartranft, says the Phia.
Age, are- being read out of the party by the
Cameron "Ring." Since that corrupt or
ganization carried tho late election by
open, impudent, unblushing fraud, they
consider real voters of little account. A
few counters aud repeaters will do tho
whole business, without the trouble of

there is an end to all wicked, disreputable
schemes, and the end of "Ring" rule is
coming. The people have been alarmed
by the conduct of Cameron and his friends
in this city and State, and there will be a
healthy reaction, when all the facts are
scattered broadcast through the Commonwealth.

TnE Secret of Cameron's Power.
An old Pennsylvania!! was lately asked to
explain the secret of Simon Cameron's
Iower by a matter of fact correspoudent
who was not satisfied with the explanation
conveyed in the single word, "money."
He knew about the use of money ; he knew
how Simon Cameron once went to the Sen
ate by purchasing the votes of three mem
bers of the Legislature. And he knew
about his defeat in '03 when he needed only
one vote to elect him ; how he bought up
a Democrat, but before the election took
place the const it uccts heard of it and went
to Harrisburg en masse and threatened to
kill him if he sold out. The correspondent
knew how Cameron bought voters and
election officers like sheep, but even that
did not explain the source of his power ; for
men bought to-day must be bought again
to-morrow, and the power acquired over
them is only temporary, while Cameron's
hold seems to be ierinai;ent. The Penn
sylvanian admitted all this, but still he in
sisted that the sole secret of Cameron's
strength was money. He controls the Trea
sury Ring at Harrisburg. The Treasury
Ring is empowered to deposit the public
funds in any banks which it may select.
One of Cameron's creatures starts a bank
on a small capital in an obscure town. The
Ring deiosits iu the bank from $2o,000 to
!fo0,000 of the people's money. That
gives the bank a standing. It is able to
accomodate its customers. A circle of bus
iness men become indebted indirectly to
Cameron. They vote to sustain his ganC
in power that they may get their paper di
counted 011 easy teims. And the scoun
drel Senator has no difficulty in raisin"- a
corruption fund. And so the ring of rob
bers prosper and only the people suffer.
And thus it is that money is the source of
Cameron's strength.
