The Philadelphia Pa* ?-.***' K-o.
says that there is a powerful revulsion
against Pershing in the vicinity of
Chambers burg, "because he was a tu< m
berotthe llarrisburg l>euocratic >:. >•
Convention of isv>, that passed the n l
ebrated peace and surrender resolution
at the very time that Chamlwrsburg w.,s
burning, and Confederate troops were
marching up the Cumberland Valley."
Which provokes the remark . 1, that the
Democratic State Convention of lfob
jeissed no peace and surrender resolu
tions : 2. that Chambersburg was only
burned July 30,1504 ; 3, that no lVnto
cratic State Convention was in session at
llarrisburg or elsewhere at the time and.
4. that uo Confederate troops were then
marching up the Cutnlwrlaud Valley.
Gov. iiartranft approved the Hiding
Act of May 0,1574, which put the sink
ing fund of the state in the pocket
of the state treasurer. The peo
ple of the state are denied a knowledge
of the custody of their own funds, by
virtue of this act, except as a matter of
favor. This law was especially intend
ed to make it safe to speculate with the
money of the state by making the par
ties to the transaction unknown, the
knowledge being locked up in the breast
of a single functionary. A vote for
liartranft and Kawle is a vote to con
tinue this system by endorsing the gov
ernor who approved it and by electing a
new custodian for the public funds who
ftrifh tstn nrnfit Kv if
expects to prom ty it.
Mr. Ed. M'Plierson made a speech at a
radical gathering at Reading the other
day, in which he undertook to falsity the
stainless record of Judge Pershing iu the
legislature. This speech is being pub
lished in the llurtrauft organs, and we
expect the Bellefonte Republican to give
it to its readers in this county. We de
sire to tall attention to one glaring, will
ful falsehood that Mr. M'Pher- n i
guilty of, and that is the charge he makes
that Judge Pershing voted against the
• bill allowing the soldier to v>u in the
field. The opposite of the vile slander
is true, as the Record itself plainly shows
—he voted for and supported the amend
ment to the Constitution giving the sol
dier the right to vote in the field. N< w
then for the proof of : In House
Journal for ISO 3, p. 908 the vote on the
suffrage amendment stands M to 0, —
Pershing voting for it. On the fiual pas
sage of the amendments as agreed upon
by the conference committee, the vote
was S3 to 0, Pershing voting for the
amendments—nee jiage &t>B of Journal.
In House Journal for 1864, page 370,
the amendments being up for pas-age in
the legislature second time—the vote
stands yi to 2—Mr. Pershing voting
for the suffrage amendments. A bill
was afterwards introduced to submit tie
ratification of the amendments to a vote
of the people at once, so as to enable the
soldier to vote at the next October ( lec
tion which was supported by Mr.
Pershing, who alo voted against an
amendment to submit the amendments
at the October election, which would
have deprived the>olditr of a vote for
that year. This was voted down bv 87
to 7—Judge Pershing voting against the
amendment and for the prompt enfran
chisement of the soldier—see page •!.
This is very mean and small business
on the part of Mr. McPherson, who
knoastliat he is telling what is not true.
How he can be guilty of such down-right
falsification, in the very face of the Re
cord which shows Mr. Pershing to have
been the advocate and supporter of the
soldier-suffrage amendments, as well as
of every other measure that was calcula
ted to befriend the soldier, is what won
ders us.
ADM ITT ED ItY THE MS EL I ES.
Now read how a Republican organ, the
Allegheny Mail, admits to it :
Of the thirty-two millions expended
for the Indian service during the last
five years it is estimated by careful com
putation that ut least fifteen millions
have been absolutely stolen and divided
among the Indian rings which is just as
influential at the White House as it is in
the interior department. And that fact
some persons are illiberal enough to
hint has been the secret of Delano's hold
on (iraut aud defiance of public opinion.
What OJUISOU, Dallas and Evans' share
of the spoils was we cannot say with
precision, but we know of one transac
tion where tons of Indian supply goods
were stole by them,
CENTS AND REASON.
A radical exchange says "many republi
cans are conniving at Hartranft'sdefeat,"
and then asks, "Is there any sense or
reason in this." Why ves, i. is cents out
of the people's pockets in having Ihirt
ranft for Governor with u doubled sala
ry, and that furnishes the why
honest republicans will not support him.
It was cents out of the pockets oft he peo
ple of this state to the tune of over tl.cee
hundred thousand dollars when 1 lai t-
ran ft as Auditor General permitted the | •
F.Vans swindle to pus- unchallenged I

any honest man of good sense hesi •.:<

ment or patriotic emotion prevail I'.ul
one answer is tolerable.
Girl. Piolette has been a life long dem
ocrat. And though recently very prom*
inent among the Grangers of the state
it was his democratic instincts that led
biin there. A Frenchman by blood he
has no douhl.'as alleged, lx-.-ii too impul
sive to be always discreet—he may at
times of excitement have uttered what
his cooler judgment would condemn
but under and over all that is the ad
mitted and most important fact that
when elected Ac in// root out thecorrvjit torn
o/thf Iffttury, expose them to the people,
recover back a great ]>art of the sunt!
lost, and put a complete stop to all the
dishonest practices that have character
ised the treasury management of the
radicals. He is therefore a proper man
for the times—just the kind of candidate
that is needed, and one who as an officer
will fill the demands of the people, ital
ly, therefore, for the reform nominees—
for the men who will do what you want
done in state alfairs.
But, he is a granger shout the radical
leaders. Well, let liim be a granger !
That does not hurt anybody and does
not constitute a reason nor w ill it have
the effect to induce any democrat or re
former to vote against him. If there
were more grangers among the office
holders it would be far better for the
people. A granger in the state treasury
just now will fill the office of the cross
dog under the wagon—the pilferers and
thieves will stay away there ? Rally
for treasury reform—that's the point to
be reached !
Gov. Ifartranfl, w hen he stepped into
[ the executive office, had either to Ire false
to the people or to the ring which secured
his nomination and election. He delib

creased tlie state Jebl. It is well known,
however, that for years past large amounts
belonging to the sinking fund have been
diverted from it, and applied to other pur
poses than the payment of tlie debt of the
state. The effect of this is to leave a large
indebtcdnes, Die payment of which, with
the accruing interest, has to ha provided

operates oppressively on the mining and
other industries of Iho :atu. Tlie faithful
