The License Question.
In t very short time the people of
Centre county will be afforded ftn op
portunity to decide upon the queetion
of "license" or "no license." We do
not think it advisable to get the peo
ple into ftn undue excitement upon
this queetion, fti we think it is one
thftt should he calmly, deliberately,
as well as conscientiously acted upon,
and if treated in that spirit, the de
cision, whatever it be, must be accept
ed as the real sentiment of the people.
It is a queetion upon which none can
poesibly be ignorant or stand in need
of light; all are fully acquainted with
the workings of the license system,
and have had the amplest opportuni
ty to observe and study the good or
evil that may be carried with it; and
all know the arguments used by the
men who oppose the sale of intoxica
ting liquors and its attendant baneful
results. As we do not presume any
possible ignorance on the part ef our
readers upon these phases of the ques
tion, we shall not weary them with a
homily upon the same —every man,
woman and child has seen the drunk
ard and the sober man, and knows
the abuses of liquor full well, while
upon its uses many may not be so
cjear, and upon this tetotalers place
little value. Stanipoints from which
viewed, and tastes in particular, must
account for these differences. That
we have a world of misery that arises
from drunken ess, is too patent for
any one in this enlightened day to
deny—andthaf from it spring pauper
ism, crime and taxation to a fearful
extent, is equally true, and that a par
ty has built itself up with the ostensi
ble purpose of correcting this evil, and
has been making it a bobby for over
twenty years, is also a fact. But ws
must regret that the cause of temper
ance has, in a measure, been damaged
and impeded by politicians using the
temperance party as a lift to hoist
them into power, and very often
working with the whisky ring to elect
the same candidates, and this is what
has done the temperance movement
more injury than any opposition com
ing from any other source. This was
a grave mistake and regretted by all
sincere friends of temperance —
could the politician and the hypocrit
ical schemer have been kept oat of it,
the cause of temperance would have
gained instead of falling into sus
picion with thousands. But, because
this is so, and because bad men have
foisted themselves upon the temper
ance movement and have used it,
with the connivance of the whisky
ring itself, to get into place and power
where they have robbed and plunder
ed, is no reason that the principle it-1
•elf abould be abandoned—such a
course would wreck every good object
Ind all religion and charity might
equally as well be thrown to the
dogs.
We alledge that the temperance
men—and man/ of those per se tem
perance apostle#—made great mis
takes and mimed golden opportuni
ties—because, when it came to the
test, the/ could not get over their par
ty prejudices, did not remain true to
their professions, and were habitually
found guilty of voting for intempe
rate men in preference to men ofknown
temperate habits because the latter
did not belong to their political party.
Let us cite a few instances: how many
strenuous temperance advocates in
Centre county voted for that christian
gentleman and model of the true tem
perance man, Horatio Seymour, for
President, in preference to Grant,
with whom it was a common thing to
get drunk ? Chas. R. Buckalew was
the author of some of our most whole
some temperance laws, among them
the Sunday liquor law, yet our ar
dent temperance men en masse voted
against him, and worked for the elec
tion of his opponent for whose election
the whisky ring spent hundreds of
thousands of dollars ! Here Jwe find
the whisky ring and the professed
temperance men working to accom
plish the same purpose, aod to defeat
the'author of some of our most whole
some enactments against the whisky
traffic. That the whisky ring should
oppose Mr. Buckalew was quite nat
ural and expected, but that those
who arejloud in their advocacy of tem
perance should work with them, is
strange. But so these things have
been worked, and it is thus the cause
of temperance has been impeded, and
really honest men have been forced to
view with suspicion any movement by
the temperance party.
Now then as to the landlords, and
the saloon keepers in particular, they
are very much alarmed about their
vocation just now, fearing that "no li
cense" will carry, and that the bar
will have to be closed. They have
good reason to feel alarmed, for where
the question has been voted upon,
thus far, the licenses bare been voted
down by large majorities, and, judg
ing by the drift of public opinion,
these victories against lioense will be
followed by others. Fifteen years
ago, the result would have been just
the reverse, in fact, about that long
•go, this state voted down a prohibito
ry liquorjlaw. Now this seeming
•bange in public opinion, we alledge,
feaa not beat wrought by any
•bength to the te-total abetinence
■Bks, but the voting down of licenses
is done by an element that doss
not preach or even practice total ab
stinence, it is the vote of a largo class'
who have always favored licensed
houses, but who are getting disgusted
with the inanuer ami frequency with i
which so many landlords violate the !
liquor laws, aud tell to every sot and '
minor who has ten cents to offer lor it.
We believe that the majority of voters
would still favor tavern license if
landlords had not been guilty of so
many violations of the law ami abuse
of the privileges that were granted
them in selling liquor. That this is
true every laudloid knows, and to
such an extent has this been carried
on, in violation of law, that they have
turned against them a large element
that heretofore stood between them
and the temperaucc fauatic. This is
plain truth.
If the laws as thev sUud upon the
statute books were lived up to by
landlords —some few may do it—they
would prove ample to suppress druuk
enntts, aud the majority of the people
would continue to favor licensed
houses, as hotels are a necessity aud
a well-kept one a blessing to the
traveller.

have voted "no license."

1 We cannot dismiss this subject with
' out a glance at the peculiar attitude
r which these people bear toward mor
( ality and relijjion. Threo of the men

Patterson, Harlan and Garfield. They
i were liberally educated and trained in
all good ways and works, Patterson
graduating at Dartmouth College,
Harlan at Asbury University, Indi
ana, and Garfield at Williams Col
lege, Massachusetts. They were not
men, like Adam of old, ignorant of
the knowledge of good and evil, and
they not only knew the difference be
tween an investment and a bribe, or, to 1
suit Harlan's case, between legitimate '
leection expenses and a bribe, but they
knew bow to make the one look like!
tbe other. Besides these, Colfax and
Wilson were temperance and reform
lecturers and "exborters" and better
men were deceived into applauding:
their apparently superior excellence
and virtue. Even a few nights ago
the outgoing Vice President lectured
in Baltimore on the temperance issue.
It is not possible that the multitude
which listened to him would be in
structed by his teachings, in view of
the cloud that overhangs bis reputa
tion. To make the picture a complete
one the incoming Vice President
should have appeared on tbe platform
with him, and thus the way would

In such effrontery as this there would
be nothing out of harmony with their

would have a peculiar fitness not un

be something as wonderfully Batanic 1

JOHN H. CAMPBELL,
LEWIS C.CiWIDY,
LEVI HOOK I:.
The convention then went iuto com
mittee of the whole and took up the
report of the committee of suffrage,
election and representative, Mr. Law
rence in the chair.
The following section was tint un
der consideration : "Every male cit
izen in the United Statee of the age
of tweuty-oue years having resided tu
in the state for one year and in the
election district where he offers to vote
two mouth immediately preceding the
election, shall enjoy the rights of an
elector; but au elector of the state,
who having removed therefrom and
returned thereto and who shall have
resided in ths election district as afore
said, shall be entitled to vote after
having resided in the state six months,
piovided that no naturalized citizen
shall enjoy the right of an elector un
til one month shall have elapsed from
the time he becomes a citizen."
Mr. Brqpmall moved to amend the
first line by striking out the word
"male."
Mr. M'Allister chairman of the
committc, took the floor and made a
lengthy speech against female suffrage
in defense of the report as it came
from the committee.
Mr. Mantor would vote beretAer to
submit to the people of this state the
quertion whether the women of this
commonwealth should have the right
to vote.
Mr. M'Conuell declared his convic
tion that the question should be giv
en to the people of the state to decide.
He would vote for women suffrage if
it was submitted to him. The subject
must be settled sooner or later.
Mr. Mann would vote for the pre
cise language of the section, although
he helieved there was no good reason
why women should not be allowed to
vole.
Mr. Go wen was opposed to the
amendment of the delegate from Indi
ana, well as that of the delegate from
Delaware, and favored the section as
reported.
Mr. Smith did not waut two heads in
each family, and believed that female
suffrage would create disorder in every
household.
Mr. M'Murray would favor submit
ting the question to the people, be
lieving they will vote it down by a
large majority.
Mr. Gibson favored the amendment
of the delegate from Indiana.
Mr. Dallas called upon the member
from Montgomery to give the convec
tion his views on the subject.
Mr. Boyd thought it was necessary
to have inspbation for so important a
subject as woman and her rights. He
was not under inspiration just now.
Mr. Broomall made some remarks,
when, on motion of Judge Walker,
the committee rose, with leave to sit
again tomorrow.
On motion the convention adjourn
ed until to-morrow morning at eleven
o'clock.
Mighty Interesting Heading
One of the most interesting and en
tertaining of the gift annuals publish
ed by congress is that just issued in pa
j per and without covers by the Hon.
George C Gorham, who, having been
detested a few years ago as a republi
can candidate for governor of Califor
nia on account of his complicity in va
rious lobby and ring transactions in
the stale legislature, was taken up by
the republicans in the United States
< senate and made secretary thereof.
Mr. Gorham is a member of the Grant
republican national committee. He
1 endeared himself to the party last
year by writing a letter on civil ser
j vice reform, ridiculing the whole thing
and denouncing the system which
President Grant seemed to be in favor
of as an impracticable and mischiev
ous humbug. For which the Presi
: dent, strangely enough, seemed to like
him all the better.
Mr. Gorham's new book is entitled
and expenditures of the sen
ate ; " and is in form of a letter to the
; Hon. Schuyler Colfax, President of
1 the senate —the gentleman who loaned
Oakes Ames SSOO to build the Union
. Pacific railroad and never asked for it
back. It is quite statistical and some
what tabular. It narrates how Gor
ham bought a Webster's dictionary
for the Hon. W. G. Brownlow of Ten
nessee, piquing the curiosity of the
reader as to what use that gentleman
made of it; how he bought rose tinted
note paper, aue de Nile envelopes, mu-
I cilage, and maps; how he hung!
| "shades' on committee rooms ; how he
stainted book cases and picked locks ;<
and drilled holes in the wall and put i
casters on chairs and plugged the wall
and hung towel racks and stuffed
cushions with the best curled hair and 1
sharpened shears aud put a long ash 1
handle on a brush and dovetailed a
box for the committee on outrages aud 1
put seventy-four large screws into box-. 1
cs and got a new tongue for a book '
truck and everything of that sort, and '
how much it all cost. It's mighty in- '
teresting reading. It shows how Mr. '
Gorham disbursed $492,852.41 during j
one year.
Among other facta of absorbing in
terest we gather that between Decem
ber and May, Gorham bought eight
lemon squeezers, four cocoanut (up
pers, much sugar and lemons, spoons
and ladels, and other such raw mate
rial for laws. Also, that on the 29th
of December he bought for the Uni
ted States three pounds of mercury-1
and the 31st of the same month half a
gallon of castor oil. Uy the way, who
took the half gallon of castor oil ? It
is well enough known that the senate
has been for several years a powerful
body but it is not so well established
that it takes half a gallon of castor oil
at a dose. Aud for that matter —three
pounds of mercury —good gracious!
The senate is a sweet scented body.
Mr. Gorham'? parrative tells how he
bought gallons oif cologne, gallons of
bay rum, and much essential oils, Jbe
sides cosmetic and Lubin's powders by
the dozen, and rappee snuff by pack
ages of bottles. Then there are hair
brushes, toilet soap, chamois skinc,
towels, nail brushes, mid Oolong ten'
in the most gorgeous profusion.
It's a goou book, tn interesting book,
a book tor everybody ; the interest i
sustained throughout; it'* more inter
esting than Mr. Qorham'a letter on
civil service reform, fuller of informs
lion than Oakea Ames on the witness
stand, and as exact in its statements a*

By Act of Congress approved July l,j
18m, a number of persons were incorpor
ated into a company to be known a "Thr
Union Pacific Railroad Company, for
the purpose of constructing a railroad and
accompanying telegraph line "from a
point en the one hundreth meridian !
longitude west from Greenwich, between
the south margin el the valley of the Re
publican Kiver and tbe north margin ol
j the valley of the Platte River, in the Ter

yaars after date, to the amount of IW,W*

! Furthermore, "all compensation for ser
vice* rendered for the Government shall

the Unien Pacific had, of course, no mancy

■ operation ; and, finally, it was difficult, it
, not impossible, to procure popular sub
scription* to the Company's stock a* long
as the Government had a first mortgage
on tbe Company's property. Under these
circumstance* an effort was soon made to
procure further favors from Cougrei-, and
on the 'Jd of July, 1864, another act was ap
| proved by which the Gorernment gave up
its first mortgage on .the road and accep
ted a second mortgage as security for tbe
bond* loaned the.Company, and consented
that only half the compensation for service
rendered the Government by the Com
pany should be required to be applied to
the payment of the bonds loaned. Tbe
Company was therefore enabled to sell its
own bonds by giving a first mortgage as
security to the purchaser, and anticipated
being able to pocket baif tbe compensa
tion for services rendered, though out of
this latter matter grew a controversy, <>t
which hereafter. The act of July %
not only allowing the Company- Canted
State* bonds, but permitting it to issue its
own first mortgage bonds to an
equal amount, the question of construct
ing the road began t* attract attention.
Some of the shrewder stockholder* de
termined to get the contracts for building
the road themselves,]and by Tirtue of their
interest in the Company, to make those
contract* as favorable to themselves a*
possible. The idea may be better under
stood, perhaps, by supposing that live
men. A, B, C, D, and K, arc in partner
ship, and the partnership business*
need* a store. A, B, and C, enter
into an outside partnership to .build
the store in order thereby to reap the
profits of the transaction, and then by vir
tue of their position and influence in the
original partnership let the contract in the
name of that partnership to the outside
partnership they have formed Tho*. C.
Darant, originally Vice-President el the
Union Pacific, seems to have been at the
head of this mere. There was in Penn
sylvania a sort of speculating company in
corporated by the Logislaluro of that
Stale under the narno of "The Pennsylva
nia Fiscal Agency," and this affair,
which had a charter allowing it to do al
most anything, Mr. Durant and his asso
ciates bought, changing the title to "The
Credit Mobilicr of America." October 7.
1864, this transformation took placo and
forthwith Mr. Durant and associates, as
stockholder* and officer* of the Union Pa
cific Railroad Company, contracted with
themselves a* tho Credit Mobilicr, to build
the Union Pacific road. As the Union
Pacific was receiving million* from the
I Government in the shape of United States
; bonds, and million* from the sale of its own
first mortgage bonds, and from the pro
ceeds of stock sold, money to pay the
| Credit Mobilier for its labors was abund
aut, and Mr. Durant and friends ladled it
out from the Union Pacific treasury to the
Credit Mobilier treasury, i. ., into their
own pockets, in great quantities and with
muck seal. Everything coming into the
Unien Pacific above tho bare cost of con
struction being paid oTcr.tothe Credit Mo
bilier, the dividends of that Company
were miraculously large. In tho fall#!
1865, or after tho Credit Mobilier had been
in busineas about a year, Mr. Oako* Ames
appears as a Credit Mobilicr stockholder,
and immediately began a war upon Mr.
Durant, with a view to ousting that gen
tleman and becoming tho presiding genius
■of the grab himself. Durant resisted, and
a fierce conflict between the Ames faction
and tho Durant faction ensued. In July,
1867, a compromise was arrived at, and in
the September following carried into ef
fect. Oako* Ames was to manage tho
business in tho East, and Mr. Durant was
to go out West and watch the interests of
the speculation on the lino of the road
Up to this time the Credit Mobilicr had
declared dividends aggregating 270 per
cent, and had earned an additional divi
dend of about 100 per cent, equal in money
to about $7,800,000. Mr. Oakes Ames
having thus settled himself in the saddle
lost no time in ousting Mr. Durant and
finally reduced that gentleman to tho posi
tion of a mere uninfiuential stockholder
Then, this being as will be borne in mind,
about the end of the year 1867, or near the
time of the annual asaembling of Congress
Mr. Ames went to work to place Credit
Mobilier stock where it would, in his
language, "do good," i. procure cer
tain legislation which was still deemed de
siroable on behalf .of Pacific,
the object being to give that Company
more money in order that tho Credit Mo
bilier might suck more out of it. By the
act of July 2, 1804, as has been mentioned
it was provided that only half of the com
pensation for services rendered the Uni
ted Btntes by the Union Pacific should be
applied to the payment of the bonds loan
ed the road by the Government. Tho act
saying noting about the interest on these
bonds, the Secretary of tbo Treasury in
sisted tbaf the other half of the compensa
tion should go to pay that, whereas for
the Union Pacific, really for the
Credit Mobilier, it was contended that one
half should go to pay (he bonds and tho
other half should l>e |>ail over to the
Union Pacific in money To •retire an
act pulling (kit beyond question, so that
the Secretary of the Trraur.v should br

ceplion of 10 per cent, on hi* money for
the month he owned the *tock. It should
also be mentioned that he did not pay

A Neat Little Procession.
On the 4th of March coming the follow
ing talented and high toned procession
will proceed down the Capitol ttep* at
Washington, and after appropriate mutic
by tbe Marine Band, be di*per*ed to rari
on* part* of the country .
The Hon. Schuyler Colfax of South
Bend,lnd.
The Hon. J a roe* W. I'atter*on ef I>art
moulh College, N. 11.
The Hon. J amet Harlan of the Washing
ton Chronicle, newspaper.
The Hon. Samuel C. I'otneroy of Atchi
son. Kansas.
Old Amet.
Tbe procession will bait at the foot of
the avenue and be addressed by Mr. Col
fax, with the following remark*, accotn
paxied by a smile
"Neither Oake* Amn norany other per
ron rrrr gave or offered to give ino one
• hare, or twenty shares or two thousand
share*, in the Credit Mobilicr or any other
railroad stock : and unfortunately I hav*
never seen *r received tho value of a farth
ing out of the two hundred and tevenly
per cent dividends, nor the eight hun
dred per rent, dividends in cash, stock, and
bonds you have read every day for the
past month, nor one hundred per cent.,
nor ono per cent, nor the tenth of one per
cent"
Mr. Colfax wilt then repeat the follow
ing challenge, uttered and published in the
teeth of the whole world at South Bend in
September last:
"I have said that I would like to buy
twenty shares at par, if attainable, in the
Sludebaker Wagon Company or the Bird
shell Clover Separator Company here, and
1 challenge either one of the two last com
panies to give me such an opportunity now
or hereafter."
He will bo followed by Professor Pater
son, who by special request will repeat for
positively the last time hi* touching fare
well to public lite in the following beauti
ful language:
"Of the outrage done to the fair fame of
tnen who have lived without reproach for
| half a century by driving them into the
gaxe of tho public with a scourge of epi
thets which should be laid upon the lowest
I criminal with caution: of the torture in
flicted upon men sensitive of their good
names by subjecting them t legislative in
quisition without sufficient reason, I may
take occasion to speak elsewhere ; but here
I close, simply remarking, if such things
are to continue, all decent men will leave
public life, as I do, with pleasure and not
with regret"
The Rev- Mr. Harlan, before pronoun
cing the benediction, will hold up to public
scorn and reprobation two checks of Dr.
Durant for SS,OOO each, with the following
pertinent discourse;
" "The expenditure of inaney at elections
I is a growing evil. The apology for doing
„ it on ono *iae ia that it is done on the other,
tho peril grows out of the fact that it it of-
handled by unscrupulous agents, who
• make a use of it not contemplated by those
. I who furnish it. A public sentiment that
. w ill make it perilous to a candidate to al-
I low the expenditure of money to influence
elections without restricting its uses within
I clearly prescribed limits is one that naeds
! strengthing by all the arguments our beat
men and purest journals can adduce."
, The Hon. Samuel C. Potneroy, known to
. tho general public of "The Christian
i statesman'' and to the lobby as "Subsidy
.' Pom," will follow Brother Harlan, bear-
II ing on bis manly shoulder* a transparency
having one tide inscribed with the follow
ing certificate of character, eulogy, and
' obituary from the pen of the eminent laint
who proceeds him :
"We arc utterly at a loss to account for
Iuck a representation of Mr. Poinoroy.
, Those who know him intimately and well
believe him to be eno of the truest and
' purost of eur public men, as they know
> him to be one of the most generous. His
. benefactions have made hundred* of
worthy families rejoice. These who ought
to know him thoroughly regard him a*
singularly unselfish, caring only for mon
' cy at he ran use it, not to aggrandixc him
i self, hut to accomplish seine good.''
On tho opposite side of the transparency
a representation of the "trueat and purest
and most generous of our public men" of
fering in his "singularly unselfish way"
SB,OOO in greenbacks to Ntato Senator
York oi Kansas, "not to aggrandixc him
self, but to accomplish some good," and
make "hundreds ef worthy families re
joice." Tho dastardly conduct of York
in turning over the whole sum to the
Speaker of the Kansas Legislature and
thus obstructing and defeating a benefac
tion which might have made hundreds of
worthy families rejoice will be only re
motely referred to la the inscription. ,
"Man's inhumanity to man makes count- \
less thousands mourn." ]
OldJAmes may oi may not make some
remarks Be is a man of Intermittent
memory and s'pasmodlv utkarance Be (
will be accompanied by an army wagon
containing voucher* and memoranda.
Jim Nye would like to accompany the
procession, but being a man of profane
discourse and having threatened to lead
I'rof Talterson over to the Patent Office
ami deposit him as a "model of a damned
fool," he has been barred out.
Aside from the gentlemen named, no
wind instruments will be allowed in the
line. Nenetor I'omerey, being an earnest
advocate of liquor prohibition, insists that
no < ne even in the band shall take a horn
on the occasion.
The (lags on tbs Capitol would he placet!
at half staff on the occasion of the depar
ture of so much virtue and frugality, were
it not that, with Caldwell, Clayton, Cam
eron, and Chandler already in the Senate,
and l'attersoa of South Carolina, Jones of
Nevada, and Allism of lowa coming in,
the out-going seinta will not be missed
much.
A tilts ANTIC It AID ON TDK TKKAS
UKY.
There Is a scheme on fool to plunder the |
Treasury, which for magnituds and audac-' 1
tty outstrip* everything of the kind that
ha* been devised of late. It is nothing j
les than the aiautnpljon by the Generals
Government of lb* debt* of the Southern [
.Stales to the extent of fir<£,UOO,UUO. The
scheme originate* with certain bankei* in
New-York, who are large holders of bond* |
issued by the carpet-bag governments in the <
South. They have employed lobby agents I
to quietly broach the project to Congress- (
men, and these lobbyists have been en- ,
gaged for several days in Ibis work. They j |
have endeavored to keep the movement as
secret at possible until thry see what
strength they can count upon, for fear of
the hostile criticism of the press. They
have been disappointed in getting the sup
|iort among Democratic member* which
they looked for. Their expectation was
that the Democrats would vote in a body
tor the scheme, together with ail the
Southern Republicans The argument in
favur of this monstrous raid on the Treas-
I ury is (bat the Southern Stale* have suf
fered greatly by the war and by the bad
civil govarnments forced upon them since,
and that it would be an act of noble geher
i osily for the United Slates to relieve ibem;
of a burden of debt incurred without the
consent of their citixens who hold property.:
and which is a serious burdea upon tbein,
hindering tbeir growth end development.
The real motive of the men who have!
looked up this job is, of course, no consid
eration for the impoverished South, but a!
desire for ah cavy profit on tbe bond* they j
hold. Thee# bonds were bought at price*
ranging from IS) to SO cents on a dollar.
. Large quantities cost the holders nothing,
i for they were stolen outright by conni
vance with thievish State official*. The
profit that would accrtie by their conver
sion into United Slates bonds would be
enormous—probably not leu than
000. There is, of course, no prospect that
the job can be got through Congress at
this session, and it is probable tbat its ad
vocates will not feel sufficiently encouraged
to put it in the form of a bill. The exis
tence of tbe scheme shows, however, that
Credit Mobilier developments have not
* had the effect to seriously demoralize tbV
| lobby.
