The Pittsburg Telegraph an Imlepond* (
t>nt republican paper pays our Senator (
the following compliment
Senator PPale, of the Thirty-fourth
district is a candidate for re-election. ■
As the Democratic majority in the dis
trict is about (bur thousand, he will, of
course, be returned. Senator I'eale has
snown such genuine earnestness in
ferreting out the secrets ofthe "tax-grab
that honest dtitena, regardless of party
will rejoice at his continuance in a scat
which he has never dishonored.
The democrats of the House of Rep
resentatives at M asliington, turned oil
doorkeeper Polk, because be was guilty
of dishonest practices. That's the way
to do—the only way the party can make
itself stMng is to throw its black sheep j
OTerboard, and refuse to have them in
office, it will gain the confidence of the .
people thereby.
Thus the democrats did with Tweed
in Now York. The party did itse!f groat
credit by having him and his ring ,
brought to justice. Democracy means
honesty, and it means to carry it out.

A despatch from Pottsvills announces
threatened trouble in the unquiet coun
ty of Schuylkill. The despatch says,
April 17, that the scarcity of work since ,
last February in western portions of the
Schuylkill mining region is cauair r
much distress amongst the working peo- :
pie there. Dispatches from Donaldson ,
and Tremont state that a large meeting
of miners and laborers wis held in the
woods this afternoon at which they de
manded bread or work.
The llellefonte Republican favors the
re-election of Col. Andrew Gregg by its
party as county commissioner. As we j
can not get over having a mixed board,
we think the Republican pays the Col
onel a deserved compliment,—he lias
made an efficient commissioner.

The workings of the Xloffett Punch i>
thus spoken of by the Lexington (.5 *-•
Gaxette:
The Moffett register has been in opera
tion in Lexington fee nearly fcorßOitlff.
The amount of tax for that time is
st*4o.
This is a monthly average of SC33, or
an average of sJfi for each register, the
whole number of registers being
cine. % I
The cost of the liquor thus sold and
taxed amounts to s"_'s,'J79 a year. This
is about four per cent, on all the taxa
ble property, real and personal, of the
whole county. It is more than double
the whole couuty levy (exetuslvs of
railroad tax) for roads, schools, and car
rying on the county Government. It is
about thirty per cent, on the taxable
property of the Lexington district.
Now, here is scope enough for read
justment. If we can stop this drain
upon our wealth, all other burdens will
be but as a drop in the bucket. If the
people of tho whole Btate of \ irginia
dr.uk whiskey as we do, the Moifeit reg- (
ister will bring into the Treasury sl,-;
500,000; or if the money paid for the
whiskey were applied to the debt, we
would wipe it out —consols, coupons,
peelers, and all —in three years.
Senator Russey has been censured by
the Democracy of York county lot giv
ing the casting vote in favor of the j
Rank Commissioner job. For all of 1
which the York Democracy deserve
• thanks.
The radical organs are sneering at the
democratic house at Washington be i
• cause it is attempting to inaugurate an ,
era of economy. Let 'em sneer, the
party can stand radical sneers, and wej
know the country can stand democratic
economy. The house two years ago
saved 40 millions by cutting down ex*
travagant appropriations, and had not
the republican senate stood in the way, j
the saving would have been 60 millions.
Expenses must come down. The peo
ple are too much oppressed to stand ex
travagance any longe - . We must begin
to economize in fal tries, government ex
penses, Ac., Ac., as well as in our own
private affairs. Economy is the watch
word of democracy.
Judge Bradley, of the Supreme Court
of the United States, who became con
spicuous by reason of hia prominent
connection with the Electoral Commis
sion, is getting into trouble. Certain
charges against his judicial integrity are
under investigation, and it is said suffi
cient has been developed to justify his
impeachment. It is notorious that he
was appointed an Associate Justice of
the Supreme Court in pursuance of an
understanding that he would vote to re
verse a former decision of that tribunal
on the legal tender question, and it
would not be surprising therefore if it
should be proved that he has been also
corrupt in other matters. The indica
tions, says the Philadelphia Record, ap
pear to be unfavorable to bis judicial
virtue.
It is gratifying to us, as it must be to
Sepator Peale himself and his constitu
ents, to know that be is receiving praise
from the leading journals in different
sections of the state, of alTporties, for be
ing a senator true to the interests of the
people.

The taxpayers of the county through
the blundering of Treasurer Muster in
the last two years, loose the benefit of
some $30,000 in taxes on unseated lands,
now we wish to ask the Treasurer how
he can saddle the expense of hia unlaw
ful advertising, wkieh the court set aside,
upon the county to the amount of S3OO ?
What do the people say ?
It is said that Grow's friends antici
pate such a contest between Hoyt and
Wickersbam in the republican state
convention that Galusba may come in
as a compromise. Rut the trouble is
that Grow and Wickersbam together
will not have enough strength in the
convention to make a reepecta'de fight.
Hoyt'a real competitor is Bil.y Arm
strong, who will go to the republican
convention backed by the nomination
of the National party. Don't forget it.—
' Man. Patriot.
Now see here, that won't do. If there
is to be any such thing as a compromise
candidate, let it be understood that Gen. |
Beaver is held in reserve for that—let
the radical wire-workers understand ,
that distinctly from this on out, so no i
other weed "'Grows" over it. I

This is nice burines-, and all arising
from allipid official cusscdnt'vs and inal- ]
ficiency and littleness. As tin-treasurer ,
goes into this unwarranted proceeding i
knowingly, we think the tax payers of ,
the county should not tolerate the out- .■
rage, but use every lawful means to
make him do his duty according to law. |
What say yon taxpayers, will you alio* j,
yourselvcsjto be trittlcd with in aiuattci !
of some $ 18,000 ' This is only n repeti- ,
tion of Mr. Musser's blunder of two
years ago, when by a similar unlawful
proceeding the tax-payers lost tho bene

I MALFEASANCE OF THE TRSAS
URKJt.
i Tim treasurer of this county gets a
salary ot'fAkiO per year—quite a nice
' thing—besides which be manages to
gather up fees that make up not less
' than SIOOO, and which the constitution
i intends should go into the public treas
j ury, and lessen taxation. How c. y u
lika it, tax-pavers?
Trvaeuier Musser know ingly and w ill
i fully violated the mw in 1*76 and does
it again at the present tua,. :y which
• the taxpayers of the county loose the
■ benefit of souie $40,000 from taxes on
' unseated lands. As he was ti id b> th
times that ho was wrong in his proceed
i mgfc, th* tax-payers have it in their
1 poverty proseoul*! him for the injury
sustained by hisauibbo/c refusal to com
ply with the law.
Treasurer Muaser paid a printing bill
I to the Jourt.a' at Millheim, which in
onr opinion was a clear fraud. That pa
i per under tho law not being entitled to
• puuliah any legal advertisements, iu v
ertlialofo without order published the
Mercantile Appro;sfirooot in 1f77, which
• the law requires to be puLusLeJ 1 weeks
before the day of Appeals. It camej
short one week, yet made out a bill for
$58,50, as is shown by the Auditor Gen
eral, which is much higher than the bill
, of the H afcAman or of the Reiner,
r both of which published the full time
( required by law. yet Mr. Musser paid
the fraudulent account, although his at
, tention was called to it at the tiiuv, and
refused to pay the just bill of another
paper which was authorized to publish
it and did so according to law.
In 1576 wia.i> Treasurer Musser could
, not make sale of the uiuwigtod lands be
( cause he violated the law in advertising,
he made an attempt to have the covuß*
pay the expense of his advertising
blunder, amounting to several hundred
dollars; we have good reason to think
he smuggled his bill in in a manner so
as not to attract the attention of the tax
payer as he reads the Auditor's Report.
How do you like that, taxpayers—bo
aides paying a iat salary, to pay for i!r.
Musser's mistakes too? lie had no right
to ask the county to pay for Ida blun
ders—an investigation should be had of
this item, ami the Treasurer himself be
made to pay for his own willful misdeeds
instead of saddling the expense u;>n
the people —there is no authority in iaw
for it—it is gross dishonesty.
We will refer totlmae wrongs and some
others, a little more fuhy hereafter.
Colonel Henry 8. Olcott. in an article
in the Philadelphia Weekly Times, says
that during the war vast frauds were
perpetrated in that city. Things were
bad enough at .New York, but if any
thing, worse at Philadelphia. Discovery
was brought about by an honest dealer
named iiarstow sending to the Navy
Liepartment for examination four cases
of thirty-two-ounce sheating copper that
he had bought in good faith of a res
ponsible firm, but which was of the kind
rolled at the Washington Navy Yard.
The copper was easily traced back to the
keeper of a sailor*- boarding-house, a
man of bad reputation, ami Jr->m him
discovery went on widening tili thirty
other persons were arrested for being
concerned in the transaction, viz., the
Naval Constructor, first assistent engi
neer, timber inspector, master plumber,
calker, joiner, blacksmith, laborer ami
painter, the clerk ofthe yard, his chief
clerk and check clerk, three clerks of
the storekeeper, the master calker's
clerk, aquarterman laborer, a quarter
man joiner, two quartermen plumbers,
four receiver* of stolen property, six '
contractors and one purser's steward.
I-arge recoveries of stofpn copper, pitch
rosin and other public property wt-re
made. Some 1,500 barrels of naval 1
stores had been carted out of the Navy 1
Yard in broad daylight, and, to say '
nothing of copper bath-tubs, brass fil
ings and other smaller things, the 1
thieves had removed a steam engine
bodilv and sold :t to a junk-dealer.

nii-sion to Prenident tirant, who em
braced it heartily. !leal* > relates tin
difficulties the advocate* of the nicasur*
met with, and why l o w;.s convinced (
that Mr. Hayw, thefi in Ohio, was in
triguing with th southern member of
cngreas. Of the final vote he is free
to say-that when the whole truth i*
known it will sink ifi.- administration,
President and all into the lowest depth*
of infamy." There h* been no reform
not even in the civil service, under
Haves. If he should send a message
congress on civil service reform a list of
his-elect friends and favorite* will be
published against whom such a 1 -ng list
if -enous charges arc recorded u* would
make an astounding commentary on the
President's words.
In the course ofthe interview the
World < rrespondent asked, "M ell, Se
nator, 1 would like to know whether you
think the true history of the Louisiana
electoral business will ever bo told in
Congress, and if so how soon
Ooukling Ye- 1 think it will. ! do
not see how it can be kept down. There
are to<> many avenge* of information
open to day to make concealment avail
much longer. No reasonable man can
doubt there w.i* some kind of a bargain
between the friend* of Nieholls and that
man Hayes, and that Stanley Matthews
and Sherman were privy to it. A vcrv
great many people have become exceed
ingly curious to know precisely what
the bargain was and exactly how it wa
carried ut and Yankee ingenuity will
be -tire to find soiao mean; of getting at
the information. 1 cannot say 1. w - n
tin fact* will come out, for mcthing
mav ocelli any day to force theui to the
surface. It will probably be K*t to let
them come out naturally.
Question— What will be the nult"
Answer—The result will be that the
whole countrv will be appalled by the
dishono. . f ,i I tell
you, sir. that never in tn. hiat :/ of thi
nation, has there 1 > i u in the entire four
year* -fan administration - • much cor
ruption, bartering of oiiici-s, awarding
of political leader*, and bargain and
sales of electoral franchise asduring this
past year. People will not believe it un
til proof is shown them, but the proof
! will be forthcoming. People say liaye
isj;.: J uian aud mean* well, but they
do not know l,a' lliev are talking
about. When all tl.o Lola a.e known
about this Admin.strati >n, one will
attempt to excuse the man on account
of his Mupposed gixnlneaa, nor yet lo
calise he is weak and igtiorant. 1 lie act*
that have disgraced thi* adminislratioti
have all been done before the opened
eves of the President.
.Mr. Conkling then gee* oil to review
at tcnib t_li j Hstory of the b.lectoral
(.'oniini.siion. He si;-* "'>• country
was in actual danger, yes i mean ihat
danger wa* real and imminent. The
[oiiit of tn-ril was not in the .-outli but
in the West. It was understo .fi that
Republican leader* had determined to
have Vice President Ferry count the
votes stall hazard* and declare Have*
elected, and tko West w.i* determined
on resistance. It v.as t-v no child's
play in that section.
General Meed man had seventy thous
and men enrolled and assigned to regi
ments for the purpose of seating Tilden
in office in case \ ice President berry
carried out his proposed programme.
You may look astonished, but these
tlnna* arc true President Grant was at
hi* wit's cud. I - L..E(Vsaed to me that
he did not know what to do. He wa*
ga'hcring sonrtt troop - at or neat' Wash
ington, out lift did not know how far he
could de|>end upon tbfitu.
Gen. Mierman told hiui (fiat In case
of trouble, the sympathies of a large ma
jority of officers and soldiers of the reg
ular army would be with Tilden and
that the army must not he taken into
consideration as a dependence in any
such crisis.
From these facts and from [what was
threatened and prophesied nublidy in
those days, y.>u tan imagine how gloomy
the outf'Xik was at RenUlihcan coun
cils.
The President asked my advice, and
I frankly told him I did not believe that
Vice President Ferry had any power to
declare the vote, but could merely act
in a clerical capacity to open envelopes
and lay the votes of the Electoral Col
lege before a joint convention ofthe twoj
Houses for their direction. By the way
1 may as'well state here, that when u!
certain Senator came to me and said it
was proposed to make me President of'
the Senate in Ferry's place so that the
thing should not miss fire, I frankly told
him that 1 could not accept the position
and that by interpretation of the Con*
suction I should be compelled to rule
exactly opposite to the wishes of him
self and friends. That w ill perhaps ex
plain one story that is told about me,
ami while we are on the subject, let un
say that i suggested subsequently that
there was no constitutional reason why
Grant should not he elected President
of the Senate if they wanted a strong
man there, though I saw no necessity
for any such change. Of course knew
there was no likelihood of such a choice,
and that Grant simply desired to *ee his
sucre-*or peacefully inaugurated and to
enjoy a long vacation afterward.
Mr. ('onkling say* that ho then sug
gested to President Grant the idea of a
Commission, and that the hitter embrac
ed it heartilv. He gives an account of
the various interviews with the Presi
dent and General Hiertnan, the difficul
ties the advocates of the plan met with,!
and then in particular detail why he]
was convinced that Mr. Hayes, then in;
Ohio, was intriguing with Southern
Democratic members of Congress.
.■speaking of the final vote, he says: "I
am frank to say that I thought then
there was something not exactly straight
about that Louisiana business, hut now
I believe that when the whole truth is
known, it will sink thi* Administration,
President and all, to the lowest depths I
of infamy." I
Question —You think, then, Senator, ,
that the President is wholly in the hands
of the Southern Democrats?
Answer— l am sure of it, said •'senator
Cockling. '
Mr. Conkling then said there has been t
no rpform under Hayes, not even in the .
civil service and said hi* list of appoint- ,
iiient* were the worst ever made. If.
Hayes should Mad in • tsangf pa <• i v • I
service reform, a list of some of these ai>- 1
poiutments will be published, and itj*
will make such an astounding com- <
mentary upon the President's words as *
would disconcert a more philosophicL
Cabinet than that in which Evurts and
Schurz figure as reformers.
Further on in the interview, the cor- •
respondent asks, "Do you see no hope '
of bringing the President in accord with <
Republican leaders?

At Littleton, \V. Vs., last Sunday 21th
ult., occurred so gross and aggravated a
case of lynching, that the authorities must
take notice of it or stand forever disgraced
before the country. John Wallace, who
was in jail, charged with tho killing of two
women and a child, and guilty by hi* own
confession, was taken from hit cell by a
party of fifteen men. Tho prison had pre
viously been ilormod at the pistol point,
tho guardt being easily overcome Wal
lace we-thrown down and bound, and a
rope put about his neck. He was dragged
| down stair, and out of the jail, pulled like
a log for a mile and then hanged from a
tree. He was nearly dead before lie was
tied Up. All the timo he screamed, prat
ed, cursed and yelled frightfully ; but Ins
assassins, remembering oaly that ho had
shown nomercy, showed nona themselves
When the early passenger train on the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad came by in
the morning, Wallacowas still dangling
there, and tho conductor was obliging
enough to tiaok u little, in order thut the
passengers might have n good view of tho
body. Wallace implicated ono Villar* in
the murders, and now the avenger* nr.-
talking of lynching Villar*. Nobody ban
yet been arretted for taking part in these
extra-judicial proceeding*. "Some ac
lion," It is said, "will soon bo taken by
the officers of tho State." As afoul mur
der has been committed in a eruvl and
cowardly way, it it to bu hoped that the
action will bo speedy and effective Home
ot the fifteen engaged in this assassination
can surely bo identified, convicted and
punished according to law. Lynching as |
far North us Wheeling is somewhat un- ,
comtortnbly near. i
News from Europe still sounds warlike, i

' Those who have n,>t yot subscribe.! to the!

additional means to more readily handle|
the sUck belonging to Patrons. ,
You will excuse mo-il 1 shall speak a;.
1 little in detail of the advantages of the;
Association to that it may bo better un-! 1
derstood. i
The first advantage is in reahxing the ,
same you could . t other dealers and the |
cash lit the time of ule.
The second, is in being able to tell wbenj
you have your stock in the best po.-iblc, j
condition. I
The third, is in being able to tell wbenj
you are ready.
The fourth, is in being able to sell when
in pressed financial circumstances, without
being taken advantage of.
The filth, is in selling ail kinds of stock,
when the association is once tully in oper
ation. '<
Tho sixth, is that if thy Aitociation
makei money and increases it( capital, its f
makes it for those who palronir.e it. s
The seventh, is if it is well and success -j
fully managed and Mi-Uiriod, it w ill be* 1
<,. mc ono of tho institution* that Patrons
will point t" with pride in fup#e yenrs, by
having brought thousand* of dollars into
the country, and ol having introduced I
hundred* ot tbo betl and most improved
breeds of stock.
The IDard will submit their Report dur*
ing the session. All the co-operative
agencies and stores of the subordinate j
D ran get in the county, should at onco bo
organized upon this self-sustaining
principle ol lliWAssweiation. There wouhi
then be a steady Increase of capital and
share-holders, a* well as in tho volume of f
business, and better accommodation for L
the members, which would bean evidence
Ol thrift and permanency, it would also C
put a *to|> to the draining of the treasuries i
of tho subordinate Oranges (o sustain the H
business agencies.
The finances of the Pomona (irange are
in a prosperous condition. Tho Commit
!ce will submit a d 'tailed report during
the session. Allow me to caution the
(irange not to repeat the folly of too many
charitable and public institution* of voting
away tho funds in tho treasury ill such a ,
manner n to cripple the usefulness of the
Pomona (irango by want of funds to
meet the necessary demands upon the
treasury. I'ntrons should pride tliem-elves
in tho Taut that our county' Urangu has (j
I so successfully managed and tho A
tun,is so prudently and economically ex
ponded to as t" leave a creditable sum in
tho treasury, corresponding with the char
acter of a ounty organization. You may
sometimes have considered me penurious n
for the jealousy with which I watched ,j*
over the treasury but you will excuse '
