Tiik success of the Democratic cotiuty
ticket depends on getting out the Demo
cratic vote. If every Democrat goes to
thti polls there is no question of Demo
cratic success.
Is the country districts where voters
have several miles to goto the polls,
1 emocrats who have teams and vehi
cles should see that their neighbors who
are not so fortunate, are taken to the
tnjlls.
Tiikke should lie no cutting of the
ticket by Democrats this year. Every
candidate on our county ticket is worthy
of the support of every Democrat and is
entitled to your vote. .Make no mistake,
but vote a ringer.

It might be well enough for Demo

In almost every freight train wreck
someone is killed who is stealing a ride.

Franklin W. Hull, of Pennsylvania,
convicted of aiding and abetting the ap

prisonment in the Eastern penitentiary

granting the pardon that eminent sur
geonscertify that an oreration is neces
sary to save the remaining sight of this
convict.
I r is amusing to read the Republican
papers, all charging the hard times on
the Iemocratie administration. It may
be that their Kcpublicau readers are too
stupid to know they are still living and
earning their bread under the oirrutions
of the McKinley tariff law, but we
imagine some of them have got their
eyes oikmi by this time. The fust law
passed by Congress under Democratic
rule is the reieal of the Sherman law
which will be a start for the letter, the
revision of the McKinley tariff will come
next and then if business does not
brighten up the Democracy may
feel that they are mistaken in their pol
icy. Tiik editor of the Coxliiuj is again
threatened with spasms over the print
ing of the ballots. The synitoms ap
Ieared suddenly and were superinduced
by the failure of the election proclama
tion to appear in the Culiii. Knoxving
that the law prescribed the publication of
the proclamation by the sheriff in at
least one Kcpubliean and one Demo
cratic pajer, the editor of the o'
liiiij made great preparations for spread
ing the proclamation Iefore its readers
us the Republican organ. Hut as the
pajier is only recognized by the Repub
licans as a ioxliHi, the preparations
came to naught and the editor of the
iiiwliiiij worked off the matter this xveek
as a specimen ballot. The CohUhi's ed
itor issuffering from a bad case of
"big head."
Hknky Ci.kxvs, the New York banker,
makes the following prediction: "The
great banks of Kuroiie now , hold $7."0,
(HX,000 in gold, and other banks $2."0.
000,00 more, making 1,HH,KHi,(H0.
Most of this lielongs to depositors and is
now alsolutely idle. When our money
is put into solid ehajie, as will lie by the
repeal clause of the Sherman law, this
country ivtll act as a powerful magnet to
draw an important, part of that hoar J of
metal to this fude, and this country is
really the only place that holds out
promise to make good and profitable in
vestments. The doors are elosvd against
Australia, India, South America, Rus
sia, Spain, Egypt ami Turkey, and
France has at no time since the battle of
Waterloo wanted English investment
connection less than now, so that Eng
land's great hoard of money can ohiy be
profitably and safely invested in this
country, and, my word for it, it will
,60011 txmie in prodigious quantities."
As the election occurs only five days
hence, it is important that voters should
Iecome acquainted xvith the changes
made in tht manner of voting.
The new ballot laxv of this common
wealth makes the act of voting simpli
city itself for the voter, doing away xvith,
or throwing upon the election otlicors
many of the puzzling details that have
made so much trouble under the system
of other states.
I'nder the new system all a voter who
wishes to vote a straight party ticket has
to do is to walk into the lnjoth and pre
pare his ballot by marking a cross iu the
circle at the bead of the party ticket, then
refold the ballot, just as it xvas given
him and walk out and hand it to the
election officer appointed to receive it.
One little mark does the w hole business.
The electiou oiheer folds the ballot prop
erly ln-fore giving it to the voter, and
when it is returned to him uumlers the
ballot in the corner and covers the num
ber by passing down the corner, as pro
vided by the law, lefore depositing it in
the lox. No one need worry himself a
bit as to his ability to mark a ballot cor
rectly at the next election, provided be
votes a straight ticket, for all he needs
to notice which is his party ticket and
put a cress in the circle at the top of
the ticket.
The voter who xvishes to split his tick
et, or who w ishes to vote for only a jior
tion of the officers to lie elected, will
proceed in the same xvay he did last year
by marking a criss opposite the name of
each candidate for whom he wishes to
vote, and not make any mark iu the
circle at the top of the ticket.
In this county, of course every Demo
crat will simply put an X mark in tht
circle at the top of his straight ticket.
Populists and anti-ring Republicans can
either vote the whole Democratic ticket
in the same xvay or put an X after names
of such candidates as they prefer.
Cartek If. Hakrisox, mayor of Chi
cago, xvas shot and killed in his home
in that city on Saturday evening alout
8 o'clock, by Patrick Eugene Peudergast,
a crank xvho imagined the mayor hail
wronged him by not apjointing him to
the office of corporation counsel. Peu
dergast called at the mayor's resident
and met him in the hall ami at once
pulled his revolver and began firing.
The first shot struck the mayor in the
right breast and would have Ix-en fatal
but the assas.-in continued his murder
ous work and fired two more one jene-
trating the stomach and the other strik
ing him on the left hand. Harrison
died in a few minutes after the first shot.
Peudergast made his escape from the
house but afterxxards gave himself up to
the police and is locked up. In Chicago
there is a universal feeling of sorrow ami
horror and for a time public indignation
threatened to vent itself in the lynching
of the assassin. The closing program
for the last days of the World's Fair xvas
changed and instead of the grand clos
ing scenes intended the city is in mourn
ing over the death of her chief magis
trate. Tiik Coaling says:
A very economical spell xvas taken
this year by Dillon and Kirby over the
publication of thesheriff's proclamation,
which is necessary for the public to see
in order to vote intelligently. It is pub
lished in only two paersand the tax
paying voter not taking either of them
is left in darkness. This streak of
economy was practiced lecause the
sheriff leing a Republican, would have
inserted iu at least four papers, the ma
jority of which may have been Republi
can pajers.
If the editor of the !ixlini knew
enough to look at the election laws and
had brains enough to understand what
he reads, he would knoxv that Dillon
and Kirby have nothing to do with the
publication of the Sheriff's proclama
tion whatever it heloug.3 to the duties
of the Sheriff's office. It is a little
rough on the profession to le required
to reply to such nonsense but there may
be some lenigiited readers of the Cnxtinti
who areas ignorant of the election laws
as the editor and for their benefit xve
make the statement.
Like the sick sinner, the beneficiaries
of the McKinley tariff xvho have just
been pleading before the ways and means
committee are fertile iu good promises
to the laboring man. "If you reduce
the tariff," they say, "xve shall have "to
cut wages or shut up shop." Rut these
sanctimonious friends of labor have
short memories- They obtained the
present rates of duty because, they said,
they wanted to pay letter wages to their
xvorkmen. "American wages toAmer
can xvorkmen" xvas the shibboleth of
the campaign. Rut they forgot their
promises xvlieu they got what they asked
for. They continued to hire their xvork
men for the lowest wages iossible.
They continued to import Bohemians
and Italiaus to put them in places of
the American worknieu, xvho they pre
tended to love so well. They have not
raised wages, but hax-e loxvered them.
They xvill do the same in the future
whenever possible, tariff or no tariff.
At the election next Tuesday, every
Democrat in Cambria county can vote
thestraight ticket with the full satisfac
tion of knowing that he is voting for
good, capable men, in every way quali
fied for the of licet! for which they are
candidates. J t is not a ticket set up by
political Imsscs with the idea of keep
ing the offices in one family, but a
ticket in which every candidate has
lieen selected because he is the choice
of the party for that particular office.
Voters of tne Republican party, who
have groxvn tired of being dominated by
ring rule and of keeping oue family con
tinually at the public crib will fmd in
the Democratic candidates, men worthy
of their suffrages and by casting a vote
for them will assist in disenthralling
their party from the grasp of men who
will never le satisfied as long as there is
ui) otlica that they cannot control and
enjoy tucmselven.
Ox Tuesday next every Democrat
should vote a ringer.
MashiiifMoit Letter.
Washington, D. C, VtoIrr 27,
Senator Voothees is proud, as he has a
right to be. of the great victory he has
won, and he is all the prouder that it
xvas won without the use of cloture.
I'tih-ss the Republican Senators shall
introduce some nexv and unnecessary
complication into the situation the vi
cious purchasing elans of the Sherman
silver laxv, for whif-h not one xvi.rd of
praise or defense h is lern uttered during
the long and memorable silver tit-bate in
the Senate, xvill le xviped from the
St-itute Ux.ks xvithin lc.-s than a xveek.
The silver Senators, after making as
strong a tight as xvas ever made in
Congress for anything, to get the bill
amended so as to continue the coinage
of silver, found that it was impossible to
agree upon any amendments that could
he passed, and once realizing that tliey
announced their willingness "to allow a
a vote to le taken after the purposed
amendments shall have liccn debated
and voted upon. These amendments
present alout all of the financial ideas
and each of them xvill have special de
fenders and will secure some votes, but
it xvill not U surprising if, after having
put themselves on record by casting
their votes for what they consider wonhl
have improved the bill, four-fifths of
the Senate should, on the final vote,
supitort the Yixrhees bill. My reason
for expecting such a large vote for the
bill is that nearly every Senator xvho
sjxjke expressed the opinion that the
purchasing laxv should he reea!ed.
Already there are indications on the
part of the Republican Senators to
make trouble. Senator Sherman while
professing to le a strong unconditional
repealer is busy trying to complicate
matters by getting supporters for an
amendment providing for an issue
of bond. Inasmuch as Senator
Yoorhees had told Mr. Sherman
that he considered it unwise to interject
tiie tond issue, which is opposed by
many Democratic Senators, into the
question, it looks as though Senators,
were trying to cre.it' Democratic dis
sention rather than to secure repeal.
Many outrageous misrepresentations
have leen sent out from Washington
concerning tin- attitude of Democratic
Senators towards President Cleveland,
on account of the failure of tin' compro
mise proposed by a committee of Dem
ocratic Senators. President Cleveland
has lieen consistent all through the long
contest. He has always Ivclieved that
the YoorheeS bill xvould in the end le
passed and has at no time even intimi
mated that he would endorse or in any
way help to bring aUuit a compromise.
All statements to the contrary are pure
ly imaginary. The I K-mocratic sena
tors xvho pressed the compromise xvere
equally honest; they thought that the
President would sign a compromise
measure if it received the. vote of every
Democratic Senator, and there is little
doubt that he xvould have done so, but
none of them ever claimed that the
President had told them so. The com
promise xvas not end-irsed by all of the
Democratic Senators and it was aban
doned. That is the whole story without
coloring.
Representatives Turpi n, of Alabama,
and Rlack, of Illinois, are xvorking hard
to get a report from the House Commit
tee on banking and currency in favor of
the bill introduced by the former to re
eal the law prohibiting the loaning of
money on real estate by the National
banks, and they are hopeful of success.
Mr. Turpi n says Engiisli and Scotch
financial syndicates now monopolize tin
loaning of money of real estate iu his
section because of the existence- of this
laxv and that his people think it Would
le much ln-tter to keep the interest mon
ey at home. The bill xvill have a hard
road to travel even if it gets favorably
reported to the House.
Reform is the watchword of the Dem
ocrats in tlx House. This xveek they
passed the public printing bill which is
the n-sult of a long and careful investi
gation by the printing committee and
reforms, not a single abuse, but a large
number of them connected xvith the
printing and distribution of public doc
uments. This bill, if it becomes a laxv.
as it probably will, xvill make a material
reduction in the cost of certain lines of
public printing simply by shutting off
the waste.
The officials of the National Associa
tion of Democratic dubs have secure I
reduced railroad rates for Democratic
voters in the states of New- York, Ohio,
Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, New Jer
sey, Virginia, and Maryland xvho are
temporarily residing in Washington and
xvill use their utmost efforts to see that
they all go home to vote at the coming
state elections. m.

It cost .:.0,O0i,it0 to make the
World's Fair. The officials would like
to know just how much it xvill take to
unmake it. The fair ollicials are under
a bond of Saoo.OOO to have all the build
ings and other appurtenances of the fair
removed and the park returned to its
former condition by January 1, ls'.I.
To do this is noxv practically impossi
ble and they have asked the park com
missioners for at least six months' ex
tension of the time, and if jMtssible
twelve months. The reUcst will le
granted probably, but there are other
difficulties. Thti buildings are so large
that it xvill lie an expensive ami in some
particulars a dangerous tasV to tear them
tiown. Contractors xvho have looked at
the Manufacturer's building, which
covers .'51 acres, says the man xvho razes
it xvill have to le skillful as the architect
xvho planned it. Still there xvill lie more
salvage from the Manufacturers' build
ing than from any other. Many con
tractors say there is very little material
in the buildings worth handling.
