General elections will beheld oo Tuesday next in the Slates of of Maasachuseots, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland. Virginia, Mississippi, Iowa and Ne braska. Go early to the polls, vote the entire Democratic ticket and then nrge yonr neighbor to go and do likewise. Get ting out the vote in tbe rnral districts is what counts. Uy all means get out the vote. Healthy public sentiment In Mon tana has proved too strong for the schemers who are endeavoring to re verse the will of the people as express ed at the ballot box, and theie seems to be little reason to doubt that it will en force justice la the end. Ok election day be on tbe look ont for spurious tickets. They are out and will be handed around on that day wllb J the hopo of gelling ui'&e of them voted. Before yott vote, carefully scan every Hame on your ticket and be certain that It contains the name of every Demo cratic candidate. TriE Republicans are not at present o certain of carrying Ohio as they pro fessed to be some time ago. The Jahns town TYibime, on Tuesday says "the Republicans are hopeful of carrying through Foraker for Governor In Ohio." "Hopeful" is a pretty weak word for a Republican organ to use In telling of their chances for carryiug Ohio. Asa a matter of fact, yi the Philadelphia Telcyraj h (Hfjllicnn), It Is known to everybody that Harrison baa removed thousands of Democrats without other cause than to make places for Republicans. It is just as well known that be bas in maktcg appoint ments invariably made them to provide either for his family or for practical politicians to whom the offices were given as rewards for partisan services. It is, again, as well knewn that Le bas placed Federal offices In Virginia at the disposal of a notorious political adven turer, rebel brigadier and repudiator for partisan purposes Vick President Morton, last week took out a saIooq license la "Washington D. C. for bis new hotel. A Washing ton special says : "There Is no doubt tbat tbe Incident of the opening of the Vice Presidential saloon bas caused a good deal of annoyance to the Anminis tration. The Iresident Is annoyed and angry, and so is Mr. Blaine, while the pious superintendent of the Bethany Sunday school at Philadelphia Is horri fied ; but as Morton did col urtc. the direct patron J?e of thi jrvt!mrc anyway, ba fpt J easy with tn asurtrre coal me working n! drmJclpj mpn cf ' the party will bar him rtp. j Next Tuesday will be election day and as this is the last paper that will be Issued from this office until after that time it is fitting that we say a word to urge the Democracy of Cambria, to again march to the polls and elect the whole county ticket. Every man on the ticket Is a worthy and consistent Democrat deserving your support. If you or any of your Democratic friends were the Democratic nominee for any office each and every one of them would be found, ever ready to give you their assistance and lend joa their help. Oa the other hand the Republican ringstere who aia traveling around over the county inviting Democrats to scratch their ticket and rote for some one of tLeir candidates are the same old gang that has been following the same busi ness for years, tot one of whom would vote for a Democrat for any office. They would not vote for you if you were a candidate much as they now pro fess to love you, nor would they vote for your Democratic neighbor. Their Interest in your welfare will cease after you cast your vote and their political friendship be dormant until this time next year when the same squad will again be fonnd doing tbe same work. Give them tbe cold shoulder and vote the whole ticket without a scratch. Sourn their offers to trade for in that kind of jugling lies their only hope and their followers will be found at every polling place ready to make a barter. Make every effort to get out the full Democratic vote in your dis trict and on Tuesday next victory will be ours. Oar candidate for I'rothonotarv. James C. Darby, ia a youne man of good character, sterling integrity and Weil qualified for the office to which he has been nominated. When a boy be had the misfortune to lose one of bis arms which disqualifies him for manv occupations that a man with two strong arms can torn to, but he then gave bis attention to educating and fitting him self for clerical work and after attend ing the public schools completed his ed ucation at br. Francis College, Loretto. He was a candidate three years ago for nomination to the Mm n,i although defeated by a small m ajority the flattering vote that be then received was a good evidence of the estimation with which he is regarded bv tbe Democ racy of Cambria. Defeated, be turned in manfully ior his successful competitor and the whole ticket and should now have the support of every Democrat. i or .Register and Recorder. CelesUne J. Blair, has been re-nominated in ac cordance with tbe time honored prece dent followed by both parties lu this county, that a worthy officer, one who has faithfully discharged the duties of the c&ce to which be has been elected should be given a second term. During the three years that Mr. Clair has served the peop!e as Register and Re corder, he has been faithful in the per. form an ce of his duties and kind and obliging to all who bad business to transact with him. He has been a model odcer and deserves the support not oaly of every Democrat, tut of every citizen interested In baving our public offices filled by competent and obliging officials. Tor D'strict Attorney, Francis J. OConnor, a talented member of the Bar from Johnstown Is the nominee, and should be elected. Mr. O'Connor Is a graduate of the Law Department of the University of Michigan and has been practicing in our courts since 1S8-1. By tbe members of bis profession be Is regarded as an able lawyer, with the ability to represent the Interests of the Cornmonwea!th in the trial of the Im portant cases that must necessarily come before our courts. He Is a steadfast and tried D?mocrat, an able lawyer and an honest man. The nominee for Poor Director, Is Krhel Ilite of Carroll townsh?p, an honest, opright farmer who is interest ed in the economical expenditure of the peoples' taxes and whosa generous hu manity would be a pledge that our poor would be liberally provided for. For Coroner, I'eter McGougb. a well known Democrat and business man of Portage, has been nominated and will perform the duties of the office after tbe lt Monday in January next to the sat isfaction of every one. For County Surveyor, Ilenry Scan Ian of Carrolltown. is the nominee and it Is hardly necessary for us to add that be i ;Z- tent to perform all its duties. lie Is tbe present in cumbent, is know all over tbe county as a practical earveror of forty years, experience and as there is no opposition candidate be is certain of an election. Vote the whole ticket and you cannot make a mistake. The Herald, theRet publican organ says their ticket "this Fall ia clean throughout" but you can not rely on it. If the Republicans were in the habit of having clean tickets they would not be under tbe necessity of proclaiming this as a "clean one" and tbe very fact that they do so throws out the suspicion that tbeir ticket "won't wash." TnE United Libor League. Bays the Union of Oct. 26, 1SS0, some time ago, sent a communication to Ilenry K. Boyer, late Speaker of the State House of Representatives and the Re publican candidate for State Treasurer, asking him to give bis reasons for voting against the Ballot Reform bill Intioduced at the last session of the legislature. To this request, Mr. Boyer has made no reply, and the League, at Its last meeting, adopted a series of resolutions, asking organized labor to mini fest its displtaaure at Mr. Boyer's action. The Ballot Reform bill was one of the most important measures before the last session of the Legislature, and its defeat was a public calamity. Mr. Boyer la the first of tbe opponents of this measure that tbe lovers of honest elections have bad a chance to express their opinion of, and it would be a warning which the political bosses would uot dare to pass unheeded If Mr Biyer were allowed to continue tbe practice of Itw unhampered by the care of il.e finances of the Stat.

Tbe Philadelphia rrcss with an au dacity tbat pnts to shame tbe boldness of tbe ordinary campaign falsifier, as serts tbat tbe Democratic party is op posed to ballot reform and that tbe Re publican party is struggling with might and main to accomplish it, or words to that effect. It refers to the veto of the Saxton bill by Governor Hill, of New York, and tbe defeat of a ballot reform bill bv the New Jersey Legislature. But Governor Hill vetoed tbe Saxton bill on constitutional grounds and the Democrats of the New York Legisla ture supported a ballot reform bill which embodied all the features of tbe Autra lian system tbat conld have been adopted in accordance with the Consti tution of the State. Tbe Republicans, knowing tbeir Saxton bill to be uncon stitutional, refused to amend it so as to avoid the constitutional objections to it which tbey knew would bring a veto from the Governor. Therefore the Re publican tricksters of the New York Legislature (not Governor Hill) are re sponsible for the defeat of ballot reform m that State. As for the bill before tbe New Jersey Legislature, it is trne that it failed, but tbe Democrat of tbat State have taken np the matter and Hon. Leon Abbett, their candidate for Governor, endorses the Australian bal lot system In bis letter of acceptance and is making it one of the Important issues in the State canvass. Tbe Democratic Legislature of India na at its last cession passed a bill estab- llsrucg trie Australian system of voting in tbat State. The Democratic Legis lature of Tennessee did the same thing last winter for tbat noble Democratic Commonwealth. The Democratic State of Kentucky is trying the experiment In the city of Louisville. Tbe Demo cratic State Montana haa fixed tbe re form In its constitution. Such is tbe record of tbe Democracy on this ques tlou as far as it baa been made. But how does the Republican party stand with regard to it ? A single Republi can State bas adopted tbe Australian system, to-wit : Massachusetts. Tbe Republican Governor of Connecticut vetoed tbe Australian bill passed by tbe Legislature last winter on grounds al most identical with those taken by Gov ernor Hill in his veto of tbe Saxton bill. The only change in tbe election law? of Connecticut to which this Republican Governor would agree was to require tbe voter to put bis ticket in an envelope furnl&hed by the State and to do this in private. Not one of tbe essential fea tures of the Australian system would be suff-r to be inserted in the election law. In no other Republican State bas any ballot reform bill thus far bad a show. In not one of the three new Re publican Northwestern States was this principle of ballot reform inserted as in the new Democrat State of Montana. In Pennsylvania the idea of ballot re form Is laughed to scorn by the machine politicians who control the councils of the Republican party. The efforts of the ballot reformers last winter to get tbeir bill considered by the Republican Legislature were utterly futile. As early as January 24 tbe bill was read in place in the House. It was held In com mittee until March 18, nearly two montbs. On March 26 It was laid aside for second reading. Nothiug was done with It until April 12 (see Legislative Jiecord, r- 1.4131. when Mr. Baker, of Delaware, moved to make it "a special order for second reading on Tuesday, April 16, at 3 o'clock p. m., and for third reading and final passage, on Thursday, April IS. at 11 a. m.' This motion was voted down yeas, CO ; nays, SO. Messrs. Caffrey and Farrell, labor leaders, and the Democrats gen erally, voted ya ; the Hon. IInry Kline Boyer, Speaker, voted nav. Thus ballot reform was throttled, chocked, asphyxiated, in a Republican Hons of Representatives, led by the present Rd pcbiican nominee for S:ate Treasurer. In view of this officially recorded and indisputable fact, let the Philadelphia Press be consistent enough either to cease its advocacy of ballot reform or to withdraw its support from Henry K. Boyer, who at present constitutes the Republican State ticket. As for tbe Democrats of Pennsyl vania, tfctr position on the subject of ballot reform la broadly ana clearly de fiaed. Tbe Democratic State platform on which Hon. Edmund A. Bigler standi as tbe candidate for State Treas urer, contains a plank on which the Australian ballot reform Is written in language that cannot be mistaken. Tbe declaration of tbe Democratic par ty through it? State Convention is so unequivocal as to empbasrz the failure of tbe Republican S:ate Convention to express itself on tbis subject- The Isv sue on tbis question of Dallot reform is fairly joined, with Mr. Bigler standing on a platform urging 'ts adoption and Mr. Boyer standing on bis record of opposition to the measure as tbe leader of the House of Representatives which killed it. Jlarru,lurj PutrioL What about ballot reform ? Neither Mr. Boyer nor the Republican press dares to discuss it. What about Treasury reform ? Mr. Boyer and the Republican press are as silent as clams on tbe sutject. What about tbe fraud perpetrated by tbe late Republican Legislature in im posing an immense and unnecessary expense upon the people of the State by appointing a special election !.be day of tb. genera, "election for the voting upon tbe Prohibition Amendment Y Mr. Boyer and the Re publican press haven't a word to aav about it. What about the Republican conspira cy io tbe last Legislature to defeat the labor and granger bill ? Neither Mr. Boyer nor the Republican press has the courage to meet tne issue. Mr. Boyer is simply running on the reminiscences of his party. He and bis supporters understand quite well, indeed, that if bis candidacy were based on the issue recently ralsad by his par ty, and by tbe people against his party, be would be snowed under by a majori ty running into tbe thousand. But should the people support a candidate who stands for the wrong side of these issues and is afraid to discuss them ? A tear ago Judges Allison and Ar nold ruled, during the trial of an elec tion case in Philadelphia, that election boards are justified in refusing tbe votes of men whose tsxes have been paid for tbem with money not their own. A man must pay his own tax. Ik cannot be paid for him. unless be re funds before tbe election the amount expended in bis behalf. A tax receipt presented to an election board by a po-. litical committee, or its representative. In bba!f of a man offering to vote, as evidence that his dues are paid, Is prima facie evidence of illegal payment of the tax. and tLe board ia justified in refusing to receive such vote. This is exactly what Judges Allison and Ar nold ruled. The practice of buying tax receipts at wLo'eaale and riving them to voters is illegal. A voter may be qnestloned as to whether he has paid bla own tax. or whether It bas been paid for him. A Nmfe UiMtDfal.

Tbe Argentine Republic, with about half the area of tbe United States, bas a population not quite aa large aa Penn sylvania.

The plans for aecuring Mahone's election as Governor of Virginia are based on fraud, and tbey will be car ried out with bloodshed if necessary. From tbe fact tbat Senator Quay bad interested himself in the fight it waa perfectly certain that voters were to be purchased. But the latest scheme in volves not only their intimidation by violence and bloodshed, but also by the aid of United States officers. In Charlotte county, of that State, tbe Democratic organ Zition is very strong. It even includes several negro clubs, who have been Influencing other members cf their raae to vr.t atrainif. Maboce. Thij made tbe reaojuster iet a.ize cis waning strength, and to counteract tbe effect of Democratic Work be bas Cassed th arrfar fif anma of the jndges of lsst year's election. His rurpoee was evidently to impress the negroes with the idea that his power must be unlimited when he conld make United States Marshals subset vient to bis schemes. There can be no possible excuse for such arrests. If any fraud was committed last year, it should have been discovered mcnths ago ; no pretense that it bas just been found out now will avail. But Mihone seems to have over reached himself this time. His action has aroused a general Indignation that will cost him many thouaauds votes. The Virginia Democrats can take care of Mahone, and they will bury him too deep for resurrection. But tbe people of tbe whole country are the ones to de mand an accounting of President Har rison, whose truckling to Mahone baa made this lawlessness possible. For all the political crimes committed in Vir ginia tbis Fall, and for tbe mast of the bloodshed, General Harrison is alone to blame. He mu3t not be permitted to shirk his rssponsibility. 2f. I".
