Daniel Douoiieiitt, the man who
the Republican papers have been telling
the peoplejwas opposed to Mr. Fattison,
presided at a Democratic mass meeting
held at Horticultural Hall, Philadel
phia on last Saturday night, and made a
ringing speech in favor of Fattison and
reform in the administration of the
State government. He congratulated
the meeting that ''the people of Penn
sylvania are at last opening their eyes
to the infamy of the dynasty of corrup
tionists, who have for a generation made
the name of Pcnnsjlvaniaa by-word and
a reproach among her sister S'ates. "
Let every man in Cambria ami else
where do his entire duty on Tuesdav
next and the "dynasty of corruptiontts'
will never more make the ?i:rr.e of Penn
pylvanta a by-word and a reproach.
The friends of Pen Rutler, who
strange to say. is the regular Democrat
ic candidate for Governor of Massiohu.
setts, having made a careful and thor
ough canvass of the S'atc, claim his
election hy a majority of not less than
fifteen thousand. One of the novelties
of Rutler" canvass is that he has im
pressed into his sc-rviep Miss Annie
Jenness, a beautiful and hii'Mv educa
ted young lady, whoso home is in New
Hampshire, and who will stump the
State iu his behalf. Tin'Ier is a in in of
wonderful expedients it! nnything he un
dertakes, and if lie suceee,l: in smashing
the "errand old party" in the Pay S!rte
be will be the greatest political lion of
the day. Similar honr.rs iti a lees de
gree await the men, who, by their votes
on Tuesday next assist in squelching
boss rule and machine politics in Penn
sylvania. Tite entire bottom is rapidly falling
out of the Republican tub in the State ;
of Xew York. The L'x)'rr a leading
Republican paper published in Buffalo,
where (irover Cleveland, the Democrat
ic candidate for Governor resides, and
whose election it supports, published a
few days ago a list of Republicans-Jin that
city and iu Trie cwintv, in which it is
situated, who have avowed their inten- '
tion to vote for Cleveland against FoTger,
the Republican nominee, roid the roll
contains thirteen hundnd names. A
similar condition of affairs, but not, of
course, to the same extent, exists in
nearly every county in th 'ate. The
Republican tub in Pennsylvania is sure
to meet w ith a like fate, bnt in order to
make a complete wreck of bottom,
staves and all it is onlv necessarv for
everv Democrat to fn tlr volls on
Tuesday nex nnd vote the whole ticket
State, judiciary and county. 1
We are not aware that we can add
anything to what we have already said
during the progress of the campaign by 1
way of impressing upon the Democracy '
of the cou ity the importance as well'as 1
the duty of doing their work thorough-
ly nt the election on Tuesdvv next. The '
supreme duty is to attend the election,
and a Democrat who stays at home on '
that day and thereby indirectly aids '
Cameron's candidate, Reaver, is recreant
to every dictate of duty, and especially
so at this time when the chances of ut
terly overthrowing the supremacy of
machine politics and bos? methods in the
State are so flattering, not to say abso
lutely certain. Let everv Democrat,
then, forego his ordinary avocations on
Tuesday next and devote that day to the
promotion of the success of the historic
party that was founded by the immortal
Thomas Jefferson, supjtorted by the able
pen of Madison and triumphantly up
held and maintained by the heroic ad
ministration of Andrew Jackson. In an
honest cause, ulf. oaue of a good and
pure eovernmont. the countrv expects
every man to !o his duty.
Tiiet:k are a CTt-at many good reasons
why Jacob M. Campbell oncht not to be
elected ovi r Gen. Coffroth to Congress,
but Camp! t ips vote in the House last
April in favor of the admission to his
seat of Geo. (). Cannon. tl; Mormon
delegate from ("tab, is wt one of the
reasons, as is i ov claln.ed in some
quarters. The le;.,li:;g Democrats in
the House tiofc the ground, and it. is the
only true ground, thai Cannon, having
received an overwhelming majority of
all the votes cast at the election had a
j-rhn fj--i,t right to his seat, and that
the fact of his Wing a polvgamisl dis
qualified him, as the Republicans con
tended, was a matter for after consider
ation. Gen. Campbell and a few other
Republican members voted with the
bulk of the Democrats to admit Cannon,
and tbe Republicans as a todv voted
against hts admission. We gave Gen.
Campbell a creditable notice at the time
for the courage he displayed in voting
with the De mocrats and against his own
party on the question, and rt peat what
we then said, that Cannon's admission
to his seat on the face of the n turns had
no more to do with sanctioning polyga
my than it h id with approving ' the
Mountain Meadow's massacre. In any
other view four-fiftl s of the lie tnoorats
in the House voted in favor of polygamy
when they endorsed Cannon's right to
his seat.
LUTHER ILL RE ELECTED.
Demetrius A. Luther will be the. next
Sheriff of Cambria;county. The sland
ers against him have reacted, and he
stands pure and unassailed as a Dem
ocrat without guile or deceit. Three
years ago he was an aspirant for the
same office-, but Michael J. Nagle, an
other Democrat, received the nomina
tion, and Mr. Luther left the sick bed
of his wife to vote for Mr. Nagle, bis
successful competitor.
D. H. Kinkead, the present candidate
of the Court House Ring, traveled the
county, day and'night, against Mr. Na
gle and by deceiving the people succeed
ed in defeating nim. Thomas Griffith
was elected, and, as a reward, appoint
ed Kinkead as deputy, acd the latter has
used his position ever since to elect him
self and keep up the Court House Ring.
He is now a candidate for a second term
in his own name, but for the following
and other reasons Democrats will not
vote for him.
1st. He was born and reared a Demo
crat, bnt forsook the faith of his fathers
and has always bitterly opposed and is
at present bitterly opposing every Dem
crat who has sought or is now seeking
political preferment.
31. Every Democrat knows that he
will use the power of the Sheriff's office,
as he has heretofore used it, to defeat
every Democratic candidate who pre
sents hlmsejf for the suffrages of the
people.
3d. They have reason to believe that
he is politically corrupt, and that he has
bribed, or offered to bribe or purchase
votes to defeat Democrats, in violation
of the constitution or laws of the State.
4th. They know that if they or pny
friend of theirs should be nominated, he
will use the influeneeof the Sheriff's of
fice to defeat them.
5th. They all know that h is the crea
ture of the Ebenshurg Ring, and, like
them, will trade off every other candi
date for his own success.
Gth. They know that he never did an
honest day's work in his life, and yet he
is becrging the labor vote against Mr.
Luther, who has been an honest, hard
working man ever since be was able to
work.
7th. They know that he is in theCarn
eron Ring to enslave the free expression
of the public will.
Sfb. Thev know that he is in favor of
sumptuary laws to prevent the public
from eating or drinking as suits their
pleasure.
Oth. And. finally, they know that if
elected, he will be as he has been, the
Sheriff of a party, and not the Sheriff of
a whole people.
Xxt year we w ill have a Register and
Recorder, a Prothonotarv. District At
torney, and perhaps President .Judye to
e'ect, lht latter for ten years, and we.
as Democrats, n"o not know what twom
fri-nd of ours mav be on the ticket for
either of those nfTieos. jf Wa f.f,cf
thcr and the entire Democratic ticket,
as wo can elect it. thv will be all as
sist in? us next vear ; but if we elect a
Republican, and esr"cial'v such an un
scrupulous Republican as Kinkead. they
will be opposing ns and perhaps defeat

The above bald, naked lie was printed
in the editorial columns of the Johns
town Trihime on Monday last. It is
hard to conceive how a man who claims
to have a conscience can calmly write
and publish to the world what he knew
at the time was a wanton and deliberate
falsehood. That the editor of the Tri
bune knew when he polluted a sheet of
clean, white paper with the above slimy
paragraph that it was a continuous lie
from its commencement to its close, ad
mits of no kind of doubt, from the fact
that he saw and read in the early part
of October, in at least three daily Phila
delphia papers leceived at his office, a
report of Mr. Pattison's speech in 181
as published bv them on the morning af
ter the sjoech was. delivered, and that it
did not contain a single wiwl about the
"Mc's and the O's" much less did he
say that "they must fall to the rear
an 1 take to carrying the hod." These
word? constitute the forged addition to
Mr. Fattison s speech, which Delaney
and Gallagher, two Irish -Republican
scoundrels, in the pay of Reaver's polit
cal managers have been huckstering
over the State for the infamous purpose
of injuring Mr. Fattison among Irish
Democrats. If it were even possible to
impose upon the Trish Democrats of
Cambria connty by snch a stupid and
transparent fraud, the attempt must be j
made by some one in whom they have
more confidence than they ever did or
ever will renose in the editor of the
Johnstown Trihune.
Mr. Fattison left Philadelphia on
last. Friday morning for Pittsburg. At
Huntingdon and Tyrone in the after
noon he made brief addresses from the
platform of the car to the crowds that
assembled to see and hear him. In the
evening lie addressed an immense as
semblage from the steps of the Logan
House, Altoona, notwithstanding the
inclemepcy of the weather". He remain
ed in that city during the night and on
Sat nrday morninj, when the train arriv
ed at the Johnstown station, he was af
forded an opportunity of saying a few
words to the assembled citizens. In the
afternoon be spoke to a vny large crowd
in the Court Ilouce. at Greens'jurg, and
later in the day addressed an immense
meet ing at Connellsville. In the even
ing, at City Hall, Tittsburg, he was
greeted by a tremendous outpouring of
the people. Hon. James II. Hopkins
presided on the latter occasion. and intro
duced Mr, Fattison to the meeting. In
addition to Mr. Fattison, speeches were
made by Chauncey F. Black, the Demo
crat ic candidate for Lieutenant Gover
i nor, George M. Dallas, John R. Reed
i and State Senator Gordon all from Fhil
j adelnhia. Mr. Fattison returned to the
j latter city from Pittsburg, and during
the present week is visiting certain lo
, calitit ji in the eastern part of the State.
Thus the good work goes bravely on,
and the only thing necessary to crown it
with glorious success is for every Demo
. crat to go to the polls on Tuesaay next
and vote the ticket, the whole ticket,
, and nothing but the ticket.
Ox Tuesday next elections for mem
bers of Congress will take place in thirty-three
States, the five other States of
the whole number (3?) composing the
Unicn, viz : Maine, Vermont, Ohio,
"West Virginia and Oregon, having al
ready elected the number of Congress
men to which they are respectively en
titled. The present House of Represen
tatives consists of 293 members, but the
apportionment bill passed by Congress
last winter on tbe basis of the census of
1880. fixes the number of members for
the House for the next ten years at 32.
an increase of thirty-two. It so hap
pened that the five States we have nam
ed and in which Congressional elections
have already been held, were entitled to
just thirty-two members ; so that in the
thirty-three States which will vote on
next Tuesday, 203 members will be elec
ted, which also happens to be precisely
the number of which the present House
consists. Governors will also be elected
in several of the States on Tuesday next
and in nearly all of them members of the
Legislature will be chosen, "With the
gain of eight Democratic members from
Ohio at the receDt election in that State
there does not seem to be any substan
tial reason to doubt that the next House,
which will meet in December, 18S3, will
contain a very decided Democratic ma
jority. As regards the result next Tues
day in four of the thirty-three States, we
are willing to stand by the prediction
that in Indiana the Democrats will car
ry a majority of the Congressional dis
tricts, and that they will elect their can
didates'for Governor in Pennsylvania,
Xew York and Connecticut, with the
probabilities strongly in favor of the
election of the Democratic candidate in
New Hampshire. Don't, therefore, ne
glect to vote the whole Democratic tic
ket on Tuesday next.
Thomas B. Schnatterlt, of Fay
ette county, to whose disorganizing
course in announcing himself as an in
dependent candidate for State Senator
against Dr. Tatton in the Fayette and
Greene district, we referred last week,
attended a Democratic meeting-at Con
nellsville on Saturday night last, and
stated that he had withdrawn from the
contest and would support the whole
Democratic ticket. "All's well that
euds well," but we utterly fail to see
wherein Schnatterly deserves any credit
for getting out of the nasty scrape in
which he involved himself. He knew,
as nine out of every ten Democrats in
Fayette know and admit, that Greene
county was entitled to the Senator, and
when he took the field against Dr. Fat
ton, of that county, for whom the Fay
ette conferees voted, he clearly put him
self outside the pale of the Democratic
party and committed an act of the foul
est political treason. He showed what
he was capable of doing and we have a
right to infer that he only withdrew af
ter he plainly saw sure and disastrous
defeat staring him in the face. If he
had remained in the field, and after his
defeat taken up permanent quarters in
the Republican camp, the Democratic
party would have been well rid of him.
It is never safe to bet on a man like
Schnatterly, and any future political
gymnastics he may attempt will not
create the least surprise, though it
should prompt all Democrats deprecat
ing as they do the conduct of Schnatter
ly, to go to the polls on Tuesday next
and vote the straight-out Democratic
ticket.
A question of the very highest imf
portance is involved in the Virginia
election a question far above all polit
ical4 considerations, aud its result on
Tuesday next is regarded with deep and
general interest throughout the country
It is a question of the honest payment
of her State debt or the repudiation of
one-third of the debt in amount. Can
a scurvy and dishonest politician like
Mahone so poison the popular mind of
that State as to procure through the
ballot-box an endorsement of the infam- j
ous doctrine of repudiation, of which he J
is the bra?en and open public advocate?
If left unaided to himself Mahone could j
never cram his nefarious scheme down i
the throats of the intelligent, educated j
people of Virginia, who pay nearly all
the taxes, but his main reliance being
on the ignorant mass of the negro popu
lation, who care nothing about the debt
and are only intent upon holding the of
fices for purposes of plunder, he has a
fair chauce cf success. And then he is
aided by Arthur, who has placed at his
disjosal all the government patronage
of tbe State. What a spectacle ! A
President of the United States throwing
the weight of his official patronage into
the scale to enable a political freebooter
to dishonor and disgrace a State by re-
j pudiating the payment of an honest
debt No deeper humiliation than this
can possibly be in reserve for the Amer
ican .people, and the man who don't
show his utter coutempt for the party
that is sanctioning Mahcne in his des
picable doings by votiDg the Democrat
ic ticket on Tuesday next, has no re
spect for political honor or integrity.
Mr. Arthur last week appointed
Brigadier General John Pope to be Ma
jor General, to fill the vacancy caused
by the retirement of Major General Mc
Dowell, Pope's advancement is due to
political considerations and r.ot to any
claims he himself possesses. He is and
always has been regarded as the most
shameless liar in the army a military
braggart, whether his headquarters are
in the saddle, as he boasted they were
before his defeat at the second battle of
Bull Run, or out of it never yet won a
battle, but always blundered, and then
meanly attempted to shift the responsi
bility upon some one else, as in tbe case
of Fitz John Forter. John Pope has no
friends in the army and his promotion
is an insult to it. but it suits the men
who control Chester A. Arthur, not a
few of whom will find their vocation
gone when Robert E. Fattison becomes
Governor of the great State of Pennsyl
vania. Vote the whole Democratic tic
ket. State, judiciary and county, and
thus aid in bringing about this much
needed result.

General Campbell has been in this i
city for several days making a personal '
canvass from door to door, asserting his j
claims to the votes of onr citizens on ;
the gound of having procured for them ,
a free mail delivery. This was an act or
justice due the city and neighborhood
long ago, and it is passing strange that
it was not thought of by General Camp-
bell until be received the fourth nomi- !
nation for Congress and the election
was very near at hand. He conld not
have been ignorant of the wants of the
people of Altoona, for the newspapers
bad discussed that subject thoroughly
for the past three or four years. If Gen.
CampDell had looked after the matterat
the beginning of his second Congression
al term then his action might have been
looked upon as unselfish.-but left un
touched until he received a renomina
tion creates the opinion that it was done
for political effect, leaving the people to
infer that they never would have
heard of a free delivery of mail matter
except as a eop to conciliate the voters
toward General Campbell. It is a tnb
thrown to the Democratic whale here.
Another point in Gen, Campbell's still
hunt canvass is his promises in regard to
the letter carriers. "While Postmaster
Fatton has the power of appointing, yet
these appointments are to be made in
the interest of General Campbell's re
election. In consideration of votesMe
livered to General Campbell, a Knight
of Labor is to have one of the appoint
ments and a Democrat another, while
the other four will La frohhlorl Lv Ih
Republicans. With the two first will de- i
pend their ability to deliver the goods at
the polls. Thev msv be able to control
their own. but when thev trade on part
of their fellow-partisans that part of the
contract will most likely prove a failnre.
The voters this year have independent
ways about them, and are not going to
be sold like beef on the hoof for the tien
eSt of mere tricksters, whose political
opinions are measured hy office and mon
ey. When any voter is asked as a per
sonal favor to vote for Gen. Camplell
on this postofflce business, it is only ne
cesary to regard the person doing it as a
speculator in votes for his own benefit,
while cheating the party from whom he
asks the favor.
The citizens of Altoona are under no
particular obligations to support General
Campbell because of the prospective
adoption of the free delivery system.
Having the requisite population, the
free delivery of mail matter was duo to
them as an act of justice, and General
Campbell's tardiness in securing it adds
nothinc to his credit, when it is clear
that political necessity was the motor to
move the postoffice department to estab
lish the needed postal accommodation.
This power micrht as well have granted
the faculty a year atro as a month before
an election. General Campbell cannot
plead ignorance of the postal wants of i
the city, for both a new post office buil
ding anrt tho delivery have been advo
cated and demanded bv onr citizens for
years past. Let all Democrats stand
by General Coffroth who deserves well
at their hands. Altoona Timtx.
TATTISO-VS WORK.
Mr. Fattison 's qualifications for Gov- (
emor are eminent. His record shows j
that. Wis record as Controller of the i
city of Philadelphia is constantly re- ;
ferred to in a general wav, bnt it is in-
teresHng occasionally to look into the j
details and see just exactly what he did
no. I he more closely ins work is in
spected the more admiration is excited
for the man. In 1ST" Mr. Fattison was
electfd controller of Philadelphia, lie
did his work so well that in 1SS0 he was
renominated and re-elected. In 1878
Mr. Fattison 's methods of administra
tion were first, put. to the test.
Against the former average increase
in the yearly citv debt of $3,622,106, Mr.
Pattison's administration shows an
average decrease of f 1.246.737 a differ
ence in favor of the Fattison system,
and to the advantage of the taxpayers,
of $4.SG9.143 per annum, or nearly $5 a
year in the p"ckets of everv man, wom
an and child in the city of Philadelphia,
for directly or indirectly every class of
people feel the burden of increased city
debt. The department, expenses have
gone down from .-s.lS4.0T1.20,to Srt.SfiS,
326.92, a reduction of the annual burden
on property of 40 cents on every 1100 of
valuation, a benefit to owner and renter,
making real estate more valuable while
at, the same time it lightens the burdens
of the poor and dimishes the expenses of
the business man. Prior to Pattison's
term one fifth of the city taxes were un
collected and went into the hands of the
delinquent collectors. Last year only
eicrht per cent, of the city taxes were
uncollected a gain of twelve per cent,
over the days of ring rule. It was these
reforms that enabled the controller to
UMir-l IK.-
say in his last annual report : "The bur- (
dens of the taxpayers are being lighten- i
ed. increased encouragement are given I
tor the employment of capital within its j
limits, and an auspicious beginning has
been made in freeintr the second'eity of
the Union in population, and the first in
industrial enterprise, from taxation for
indebtedness." This is precisely the
sort of man that is needed at the head
of our State government, and this is the
sort of a man the people propose to f lace
there. Ilarrisburg Patriot.

The Telegraph and other stalwart papers I
assert, says the TTarrsburg Patriot, that I
the Republican party is the especial I
champion of the Catholic Church in pol- j
itics. They also claim that "it is noi ;
the ghost of the Know N"othing party" I
but the Democratic partv that tramples
on the Catholic." In Saturday's Tele
graph appears an elaborate editorial in
which these statements are made with
great deliberation and emphasis.
Every right thinking man of whatever
politics must deprecate this attempt to
drag a religious sect into the political
j i; ,
arena. Every true Catholic will regard
with contempt and indignation this base
device to degrade his Church. But the
Ttlfjrnph adds insult to injury. It in
sults the intelligence of the people
whose religious faith it seeks to bedrag
gle with the. mire of politics.
Hon. James Campbell, of Philadelphia
was defeated for Supreme Judcrn in 1851,

Hon. Francis Kiernan was defeated for
Governor of New York in 1S72, tut not
by any grater majority than the remain
der of the Democratic ticket. The same
Francis Kiernan was soon thereafter
elected to the United States Senate by
the Democratic party. Daniel O. Ban
was defeated for St ate Treasurer in 1S78

given to Grant in 1872 and Jas. P, Barr

Democrats of Pennsylvania in 1362.
Campbell. Keirnan and the Messrs,
Barr are Democrats to-day and not only
satisfied with their treatment by the
Democracy, but indignantly repel the
unholy demagogueism which singles out
their Church as one to be controlled in
politics by the spoils of office. The
Democratic party simply favors freedom
of conscience and therefore protected
Catholics from the assranlts of Know
Xothingism. It does not prefer one sect
to another, bnt resists bigotry and intol
erence when they assail the rights of
any religions society. Only this and
nothing more.

A JSrvehkd Siamef. Twrn. At the
clinic at the Philadelphia TTosnital on Satur
day Dr. Wm. H. Pancoast Introduced to the
students a yonng man who Is the only per
son In America who has survived the opera
tion of cutting apart two children who were
congonitally attached. The person's name
is (i. V. Lytic, residing at ConnelsvfiP, pR.
He bears upon his left cheek a deep near
where the ligature had been cot. Twenty
four years ago the operation was performed
in the Jefferson College clinic bv the elder
Dr. Pancoast, and was witnessed hy all the
physicians An I he city. It was considered a
bold fat of surgery, and many physicians
shook their heads with fear lest the attempt
would result fatally to the patient. Lytle
, was inen nui seven months old. He was
I born with a hideous annendauc to t.hA ntt
cheek that resembled an imperfectly devel
oped infant. There was a circulation of
blood through the ligature into the malfor
mation, which also had a heart. The success
of the operation attracted universal atten
tion, and photographs of the malformation
were sent abroad at the request of eminent
English surgeons. Dr. Pancoast is positive
in his belief that all double children. iikth
; Siamese twins, should he severed ty the sur
i geons knife. The operation has beeu auc-
cessfully performed only three times, once
each in Paris. London and Philadelphia.

Oregon Is falling into line on the question
of woman suffrage. The Legislature of the
State began the battle two rears ago bv pass
ing a resolution to amend the constitution so
as to allow women to vot. The present
General Assembly has just ratified its action.
The next step will be the snbmission of the
proposition to the people. If the amendment
hall be adopted Oregon will bavefthe honor
of being the first State in th Union to admit
women to fnll and qiiHl suffrage in the elec
tion of officers for the departments of Its
government. It may seem surprising that
an experimnt of this kind should be first at
tempted In a region which is on the skirmish
line of civilization ; but It shonld not be for
gotten that two hundred rears or so ago an
experiment In government which the world
covered with ridicule was tried on the New
England coast. It may be that Oregon is
the New England of the nineteenth century.

A Spider S?tareb a Snake Things are
constantly occurring. avs the Easton (Pa. )
Gatette, that cause the public to look with
wonder and amnzement, and it is suppos'd
by many that no sueh thing ever occurred
before, very frequently such impressions are
erroneous. Some weeks ago a spider was
found under the settee in Esquire Robinson's
office, with a snake entwined in his web.
Miny tho-ight it a most remarkable feat for
the spider to accomplish. Weil, it was : but
spiders in years past have shown jnst as
much Ingenuity. We find in the Easton Gi
ftte of 1824 the following statement, which
was copied from the Connrftcf Mirror, the
statement of a case very similar to that of
Esquire Robinson's snake :
One dav lift w 'Pit the workmen In Mr. Peck's
machine factory. In Sonthlreton. discovered under
one of the work bench s a hlsclfsnak e r,f tho white
throat eoecie And about 'X inches ion "j-pended
by the web of a solder. The spider was of the com
mon bouse sort., and not nnc'imii.vi larire. When
6rt diseevered the little insect had raied hi vic
tim about half a foot from tbe floor, and had him
hunir by a slnirle thread. 1 he ingenuity and power
of the spider were iruiy wonderful. Passing rapid
ly down his lin be wi ul.l f.i-fen hi? cvnlntre
around the neck of the snake. j,as hack to his own

Inir araln down, ''csst a hitch'" around the tall
and. returning to his nest, wouid avail himself ol
the contortions ol the snnke. alternately hanrinir
np his lines so as to hrlnn bis arame nearer home.
In this manner he continued his labor until eren
