EBENSBURC, PA..
FRIDAY, - FEB. 6, 1880.
We have only time to-day (Thursday)
to state that yesterday at Harrisburg
Don Cameron's convention endorsed
Grant for a third term, by a vote of 133,
to 113 for Blaine. Lemon was nomina-
ted for Vuditor General and Green for
upreme Jude,
t
The Philadelphia Times almanac for j
18U surpasses in completeness any of
' 1
its three predecessors. To say nothing
of the vast amount of useful and inter
esting general information which it con
tains, its election statistics of 1379, and
especially of this State, cover the whole
ground and furnish amost reliable refer
ence. It ii beginning to be believed by a
good many shrewd Republicans at Har
risburg that Gov. Hoyt would like it if
the Chicago convention would put him
on the ticket for Vice President along
with the '-strong man." Iu that event
.he believes that his "forty millions of
us." more or less as the case may be,
would rise up as one man and call the I
... ;
country doubly blessed.
'I he edilor of the Perry county Ikni-o-:rt
in the fullness of his political
knowledge, has discovered that a large
majority of the Democrats of this (Cam
bria) county are for Tilden, although
the delegates to the State Convention
are instructed for Hancock. Suppose
now that we meet this assertion by the
allegation, that thrtt-fov.rths of the Iem
ocraey of Perry are for Horatio Seymour,
although the editor of the Democrat in
oist that they are for Tilden. Who has
made the best gis.i the editor of the
Ik li.crot in reference to Cambria, or
the editor of the Freeman in reference
to Perrv ?
The taking of the next census as our
readers are aware, will commence on the
firbt .Monday of June and must be com
pleted within that month. There is a
penalty provided for in the act of Con
gress for refusing to furnish the infor
mation required by the Supervisor or
enumerator, and vre herewith publish
the law on t tie subject for general infor
mation. It is as follows :
"All persons above the acre of twenty-one
years who shall refuse to furnish the i'nfor
niation required by the supervisor or enu
merator shall pay a sum not exceeding 1100
to be recovered in an action of debt. Presi
dents, Ifirectora or other officials of private
corporations v. ho re fuse to furiii-h Informa
tion requite. I ct tin;, i nr" made liab'.e to a
.penalty not to exceed ?10, 00."
Monday's issue of the Lancaster
yeic Km. the anti-Cameron and anti-third-term
Republican organ in that
county, evidently anticipating the suc
cess of Cameron's programme at the
Republican State Convention on Wed
nesday, gives the son of Simon and the
men obed.ciit to his will a well directed
blow in the following vigorous style:
"Through the operation of gag rule and
sharp practice, the will of the people is
to be cast aside and the badge of servi
tude once moie hunj about the necks of
the protesting but submissive voters of
this State, by the most corrupt, the most
arrogant, the most shameless and the
most detestable cabal that ever cursed a
State, or usurped the prerogatives of a
free people."
'In. I'aunki.i., the Iiisli home-rule
advocate, delivered an address before
tiV members of Congress in tlie House
-of Representative's at Washington, on
last Monday evening, it is not often
that such an honor is accorded to a for-eignc-,
or indeed to any person, but Mr.
Parne.l represents thousands of strong
men. tinder women and helpless chil
dren iu Ireland, who are threatened with
all the hoirors of famine, and the great
heart of the American pen pie, through
their Repres ntatives, beats responsive
to the noble cause of Christian -charity
an lvvillingly extends to him the at ion's
ear. Who will say, in view of the mis
sion of Mr. Parnell to this country, that
the present condition of Ireland, through
the work of her land owners, spreading
poverty and distress over a fertile land,
is not a shame and reproach to the Kn
vclish Government that sustains so ini
quitous a system ?
That irrepressible mulatto and ac

Tbe Fusion Legislature In Maine ad'
journal ou Wednesday of las week to
re-R6emble. on the 4th of August. This
conclusion was hastened by the decision
of the Supreme Court of the State
against the legality of its existence, in
answer to certain questions directly in
volving that point which the Fuaionists
themselves submitted to the Court. It ,
is hardly probable that any considerable j
nnmbtr of its members will ever again
return to Augusta in the capacity of I
legislators, but that a square contest for
supremacy in the State will be made by
the G reeii backers and Democrats on one
sile and the Republicans on the other,
at the election next September. This

bles of a less serious nature, grew out of
. her singular and absurd election laws,
' under the operation of which, as con-
strued by Republican Governors and
their councils, the most flagrant injustice
has repeatedly been done to Democrats
who rightly claimed to have been elect
ed to the Legislature. Gov. Garcelon
did nothing more than his Republican
nredecessors had often done before, and
the only mistake he committed was irefsepresent factions and not because they

the legalityof his action to aRepublican
Supreme Court. Gov. Garcelon is a
doctor and not a lawyer, and always ap-

ease. Acting on this principle, he no ,
doubt believed that the Supreme Court
would be consistent, and declare the law
now to be what it had formerly decided
it to be. 15 ut in this he was terribly
mistaken, the Court having decided all
his questions against him and overruled
all its former opinions. Even though
the Court made sad havoc of his case as
he submitted it, Gov. Garcelon's honesty
in taking the course he did cannot be
impugned. Former interpretations of
the election laws of the State by the Su
preme Court, and the duty of election
officers under them, abundantly sustain
ed him, as did also the oft repeated ac
tion of former State Executives. lie at
least belleved.be was right, and his in
domnitable courage in standing by his
convictions had much of tlie ' 'Old Hick
ory" type about it that makes it worthy
of all admiration.
An editor of a Democratic newspaper
who undertakes to identify the Fuek
m a x with William A. Wallace in his i
rivalry with Samuel J. Randall for ;
Democratic management in this State is
simply measuring this pajnr with his
own political yardstick. We admire :
both gentlemen for their acknowledged ;
ability and their devotion, manifested by ;
each in his own way, to the supremacy :
of their party, but we do not swear by
either of then:. When in our judgment
they arc- right, wa will commend them,
and when they are wrong we will cease
to follow. We have always believed
that Mr. Randall's re-election to the
Speakership at the extra session of Con
gress, saved the Democratic party from
many grave and serious complications,
just as we are satisfied that Mr. Wallace
has discharged his duties as a Senator
with honor to himself and credit to his
state. What is it to us that Mr. Ran
dall is an ardent friend of Mr. TiMen's
nomination for the Presidency, or that
Mr. Wallace is hostile to it V The pre
ferences of the one. or the opposition of
the other, cannot control our views on
that question. Recause we differ with
Mr. Randall about the propriety of Mr.
Tilden's candidacy, is no reason why we
should be his sworn enemy, which we
are not, and because we agree with Mr.
Wallace in thinking that Mr. Til leu
ought not to be nominated is very far
from being a reason why we should be
his pliant advocate in his contentions
: with Mr. Randall, which implies a sub-
serviency to him which never existed,
! and which never can exist between us
; and any living man. An honest differ
! ence of opinion between two Democrats
i on the quest ion of the next Presidency
. affords no ground for strife or quarrel.
: And yet some men appear to think so,
I and to prove it, proceed forthwith to
impugn motives and to make false aceu-
! sations, interspersed with at tempts at the
i lowest sort of wit. This may b" as
pleasing to the man who indulges in it
i as it is harmless to all the rest of the
I world.
, The most singular delusion in repard
to the nomination of the next Democrat-
' ic candidate for 1 lie Presidentcy is the
effort made in behalf of Mr. Ti'.ilei:. No
' man who is at all conversant with the
present po'itics of the country, and who
: knows bow many electoral votes it takes
to elect a President, drni s the fact that
l in order to elect thfir candidate it is ab
solutely netessary for tli'- Democrats to
carry the state of New York, and that
- the loss ;f thot State moans sure and
' hopeless defeat. Iu addition to this, no
man has the shadow of a reason to doubt
that not only the stcreuty-scrai th"u.ni
votes cast by Tammany Hall last No
veiulfT against Gov. Robinson, but sev
eral thousand added thereto, would be
cast asainst Mr. Tilden. thus rendering
his defeat in tlie State, as it did Robii:
son'.s, a foi egone ao I inevitable conclu
sion. Ami yet m tno lace ot tins plain
and self-evident result, there are Demo
crats who are clamorous forMr. Tildci.'s
nomination men who think and hay
that 1-ecausf he was cheated cut of ids
election in 17) by the ileluraing Roards
of Louisiana and Florida ."".?, and by
the Electoral Commission oft, ;-n;trrLi,
every dictate of justice demands his re
noinination. Most assuredly thisouuht
to be done if there was a reasonable hope
of his election, but in 'he utter absence
of any such hope, his nomination would
be the most preposterous and suicidal
act that any party ever committed. As
an act of political infatuation a delib
erate sinning against all light and all
knowledge it would be without a par
allel in the historv of the connirv.
The Nov York Sun, in staling that a
correspondent inquires why it (the .S,.-i)
opuses Grant's nomination for a th'.rd
term, and yet predicts that if he is nom
inated he will le defeated, gives the
following answer, and the same reason,
we doubt not, would be given by almost
every anti-third term man in the coun
try. The 5 says :
We answer this question very willinglr.
We tuve no doubt that tiranfe will h beaten
if he is nominated ; hut w desire still more
to Mve our country from the cslamity.ot set

Tlie Way to Win
Daring the present vear the American
people will again be called upon to select
a President whose term of office, if his
life be spared, will extend for four years
from the 4th of March. 1881. In a few
months the two great political partiesof
the country will put tneir canuuiaiea m
the field, and then the struggle for su- j
premacy will begin. Which will be suc
cessful will depeno: entirely upon im.
candidates nominated, for, strange as it
may seem, trie out maxim,
not men," seems to have been reversed
in modern jtolitics. An improper oi uu
! popular candidate cannot be elected by
either partv on the soundest-platform.
Though fairly representing ins pan,
he must be sound himself, thoroughly j
l i i i lii id iv irim iniiii, i-Ji ;
trusted bv the rank and tile as wen as
the leaders, and enjoy to the fullest ex
tent the confidence of the masses, not
only because he to a standard-bearer,
but, for the better reason, that he is al
together fitted to be one. Just now
there seems to be an unhappy conflict of
opinion in the Democratic ranks as to
who should be their leader. We are
afraid that the conflict is based more
upon the desire to promote individual
interests than to secure party success.
This is ierhaps natural iu the present
construction of parties. Candidates are
named as available merely because they
are suppxieu iu ue itccepiiiwie u me
whole united Democracy, lluspreler-
ence is founded quite as much upon the i
hope of prospective plunder as upou the
real merit ot the candidate. We are ;
aware that it is a difficult if not an im- ,
possible thing to find a man acceptable !

said, with great force : "It is in vain
to hope to please all alike. J-t a man :
stand with his face in what direction he :
will, he must necessarily turn his back .
on one-half of the world." As with j
men so with parties, and hence it is a j
fact, which must be looked squarely in ;
the lace, that whoever is nominated will
be made the candidate in opixisiiion to a
large number in the Democrat ic ranks, j
In this view of tlie case the National ;
Democracy should earnestly strive to !
find the very best man for the crisis, I
without reference to sentiment, or prej- j
udice, or individual interests, or the ;
promptings of factions. Such a man i
may not be easy to Find, but he is worth j
diligently looking for. Without him ;
the party will gointoan utterly hopeless ,
contest, with no chance of success, and
the same polilical organization that has
ruled the nation since will again
reap the fruits of victory. The Democ
racy can elect a President this corning
Fall if wise and prudent counsels pre
vail, but they need not hope to do so un
less they show that they are worthy of
public confidence by nominating a can

Fatiikr Hoiha's Defection. The
renunciation of the Catholic faith by
Rev. John ITojda, a Roheniian priest
stationed at Raltiniore, a notice of w hich
was published in these columns last
week, has taken on a new and rather un
F.tvorr phase. In the popular cant of the
day. there is a woman in the ease, and
( barges are made that the prirst had be
trayed a young Bohemian srirl before
leaving his native country, that she fol
lowed him to Baltimore, and that the
pair have now disappeared. Friends of
Father Hojda claim, however, that his '
relations with the young woman did not j
involve any violation of morality, but
that, having fallen deeply ;n love with
the young lady, his vows of celibacy had ;
become irksome, and that immediately
upon renouncing his allegiance to the
Catholic Church and abandoning his
priestly functions, he married the girl
and went to New York with her. where
they are now living in lawful wedlock. '
Rev. Mr. Pister, the pastor of the Lit- '.
theian congregation intowhich Mr. Hoj
da was received, says that the ex-priest
had expressed to him his intention of .
leaving the city, as when the archlcshop j
learned of his action it would create too
much comment, and he would therefore
remain away from Raltiniore until the j
excitement subsided. It is known that !
at the time of Mr. Hoj. la's alleged con- ;
version and reception into fellowship by
the Lutheran Church he had been sus-:
pended from his ecclesiastical duties pen- '
ding an investigation of charges t.f ini- ;
proper conduct that had been made '
against him. j

A Washington City dispatch of the

; movements of their North Carolina friends,
i They furnished the money for their own
i tickets, and witness did not know whether
: or not they got it from Col. Jordan, the
: United States Register in Knkruptcy, or
I where they got it. He had ta'.ked with Col.

I Witness Yes, and I wanted to sell the

; Thomas Wells, of Indianapolis the partner

remarked to ''the boys," when the North
' Carolina colored people first began to arrive
: at Indianapolis, "We want 20,000 'bucks'
I not women and children."
Mr. Voorbees You wanted them to vote?
j Witness Yes, we wanted them to rote I
! Mr. Voorbees Well, that's a square in-

Laughter. 7
j Mr. Voorhees But they bronght a good
many women aud children with them.
I Witness Yes, they overdone the thing on

Mr. Voorbees (interrupting) In close
counties?
Witness Well, yes ; iu close counties.
Renewed laughter.
Mr. Voorbees State whether these views
; which you hare given eo frankly, are shared
by your party in Indiana.
I The witness replied that he thonght they

effort to draw negroes to Indiana. He be

; They wanted assistance, and iiokucw they
. had money when they retired from their in

proached witness since his arrival in Wash

nothing should be said about the purchase of
tickets for Perry and Williams bai-k to this
city from Indiana.

Two iiu.Ni'Ui.i) prominent lit publi
cans in Philadelphia, embracing nit r
ch. mts, manufacturers, etc., addressed
an earnest protest against the third term
to the Pepublican state Convention
which met at Harrisburg last Wednes
day. Tip; fVhnving U the important
portion of it :
To avert sut-li a result we, therefore, lg
of you so to act that the influence of the great
State of Pennsylvania may !e thrown iu fa
vor of :e wlm ran tie conscientiously sup
poeteJ, ami anitist those w hotu the honest
voter may fel himself ohlifje.l to oppose at
the polls. We havu no candidates to sug
gest, nor do we deem it fining to specify by
name any whom we might feel compelled to
reject. We may say briefly, however, that
the numli-r of Republicans is very iare
who cannot be relied upnn to support on the
one hand one whose candidacy would violate
a tradition which has become part of the un
written law ot the nation : nor on the other,
one who regards iheski'ful tieof patronage
for personal ends as the highest fun"! ion of
a statesman ; nor one whose pas', inability to
resist temptation would put his supporters
en ihe defensive throughout the campaign ;
m:t one whose personal ambitiou may lead
liini to resard Ihe public service as a mere
jiisirumentaiity for furthering his own vtnls.
.n:il whoso convictions are bin expressions
i t temporary political expediency. The
p'.itfortu on winch we entered the Presiden
tial contest nf lsTii--nation a! supremacy iu
national affairs ; the avoidance of unconsti
tutional iutet uit-ddiiug wi:"u local sell-gov-erumont
; ln r.rst money aud a thorough re
form of the cnil service is the accepted
declaration of Republican prlncip.es, and It
w ould be an irsult to the intelligence "f the
party to present tor its support any one
whose record would show that his cauvass
on such a platform would be but a trap to
catch tho unwary.
The public views with increatiu and just
alarm the dangerous lengths to which party
leaders are prepared to go iu the effort to ad
vance their litical fortunes. While the
disgraceful attempt to set aside the popular
will in Maine is still an oft'ec.so io our nos
trils, we are shocked with the propobitiou
openly made to silence the voice ef the gr-at-
; est State in the Cnion by the action of a I-eg-isiamre
not choien upon auy such issue.
'. If the contest for f" great a stake as the
Presidency of the Cuited States is thus to
become a men- game cf hazard played by
both sides with loaded dice, it needs no
, prophet to foretell the result in the i:rar I'u-
, lure as anarchy and civil war.
! When thoughtful men seek the catis of
these dangers, they find it in the low stand
ards of luauy of onr political leaders aud
the nnwortliy methods by which the scratu
ble for power is conducted. Recognizing
the evil, they have not far to look lor the
remedy. In the existing perfection of polit
ical organization, they can have iittle or
; nothing to say in the selection of candida-es.
; The only recourse, then, is at the polls, and
i the opinion is spreading apace that the high
est service a voter can render to tns party
j and bin rountry is to vote gaint unwottby
i aspirant an the only effectual method of eu-
forcing improvement. c pray you, tuero
j fore, to be wise iu time, atul to take such
' rourse as nball conduce, to securing for the
! Republican party and its candidate thesup
j port of that vast body ot indepeudent voters
witbont whom snccegs in tne I'resiaennai
contest in impossible.

President Monroe's seventh annual Message, j
December '1. IS-.'.'t. After remarking that 'in
the wars of the Knropean Powers, in matters j
relating to themselves, we have never taken
any part, nor does it comport with our policy
to do so," he says: "With the movements
in this hemisphere we are of necessity more j
