CAMERON OR REFORM.
Tax-payere are you tired of Cameron
rule—then show is next IMesday *>
voting for Dill, Kom and Africa whowi.
brine von reform.
Are TOO nnwiliing that the Camerons
shall control this district then turn out
next Tuesday and vote for Curtin and
Alexander, whom the Cameron gang is
trving to .defeat, Likewise vote
Murray and Gephart, so that Don does
not get a vote from Centre to re-eu ct
him to the senate.
Would-be Judge M'Cormick's attacks
upon Judge Mayer act like a kicking
gun—every fire recoils upon bint.
not making votes, but disgusts men
bad a good opinion of him, only that
they did not think him the proper per
son for Judge, especially when one 60
able as Judge Mayer is brought forward
for re-election.
AAer Tuesday next M'Cormick will
be glad to crawl into his hole and pull
the hole in aAer him. Like the ground
hog he will shy at his own shadow and
the poor fist be made as an independ*
ent candidate.
Mr. Gephart, one of our nominees for
Assembly, and chairman of the Dem.
Co. Committee, is managing an active
campaign against the wiles of Cameron
in this county. The Cameron influence
is now directed against Mr. Gephart, in
order to defeat him and secure one vote
at least from the county for Cameron in
the legislature. It has been ascertained
that Cameron has the aid of a few pre
tended democrats, bribed Jto work for
the defeat of Curtin and our legislative
nominees, especially Mr. Gephart.
Democrats will understand the impor
tance of electing both our members
Gephart and Murray, and the entire
ticket While Mr. Gephart is giving
his attention to his duties as Chairman
the rank and file must be all the more
vigilant and see that his vote is a big
one. He is doing great service to the
party In his present position, and de
serves to have one of the largest majori*
ties for it
Greenbackere, are you ready to be sold
out to Don Cameron? Chairman Quay
says that" l'ooim mil be all right after the
election." And have you not reason to
believe that this is so ? He never be
longed to your party until al>out a
month before he was named for Con
gress, never voted your ticket in his life
and we doubt whether he will vote for
Mason even now. At heart he is a Hoyt
man, and after the election yon will find
this out, if not sooner. Beware of any
man who is supported by the Camerons
—their enmity is preferable to their
friendship! Rebuke those who would
betrav vou and vote for Curtin!
NF.XTTUESDAY. DEMOCRATS,
DO YOUR DUTY. DON'T SCRATCH
A SINGLE NAME ON THE TICKET.
CAMERON'S MONEY IS WORAING
IN THIS COUNTY TO DEFEAT US.
DEMOCRATS. NEXT TUESDAY
YOU CAN TEACH THESE CHIEFS
OF THE PLUNDERERS A LESSON
IF YOU WILL.
Charley M'Cormick, who is an inde
pendent candidate for president judge
afler having promised to abide by the
decision of the democratic convention
(but didn't) is not doing himself any
credit at all by his attacks upon Judge
Mayer. He will not gain a single vote,
and the only tendency his warfare will
have, will be to lessen him in the esti
mation of many who were his friends.
The people know Judge Mayer too well
to be mislead by M'Cormick's newspa
per articles. They have watched Judge
Mayer's course upon tbe bench for ten
years, and have come to the firm con
clusion that he has worn the judicial
ermine unsullied in all that time, and
that so long as he remains upon the
bench their rights and property, as well
as their lives are in safe hands. It does
not become one who seeks a place upon
the bench, to pursue the course that
Mr. M'Cormick is taking and traducing
a man who is held in so high esteem as
Judge Mayer, simply to get his place.
The people will give their disapproval
next week.
FARMERS, TAX PAYERS,
AND WORKING MEN, REMEMBER
WHEN YOU VOTE NEXT TUESDAY
THAT ADAM YEALTLCK IS ONE OF

"just as good democrats as there are in

Beware of bolters, who would ask yon
to do the same thing which your un
flinching enemy, Cameron demands.
Let no democrat scratch the legisla
tive ticket. Cameron is trying to steal a
vote for U.S. Senate from this county.
Cameron's agents in this county are
becoming desperate. See them wiggle
and squirm.

OoTcriior Curtin ou tbe Store
Order System.
"It has come to my knowledge that
"in some parts of the State a system
"exists of paying the wages of work
"men and laborers, not in money
"but in orders on store keepers for
"merchandise and other "articles.
"This system, by preventing all com
"petition, leaves the men to the uncon
"trolled discretion of the store-keep
"crs. It is a system most unwise and
''unjust, and it affects classes of useful
"citizens, who, as they live by the pro
"feeds of their daily labor, have not
"adequate means to resist it. I have
"no doubt that most of the difficulties
"which occasionaly occur between em
"ployert and tbeir workmen are due
"to the prevalence of this system.
"That every man, for a day'a labor,
"should receive a fair day's wages, is
"but the dictate of common hoDeety ;
"and while it would be most unwise
"for the State to interfere at all with
"the rate of wages, it is in my judg
ement incumbent on her to protect
"her laboring population by requiring
"that whatever may be the wages
"stipulated, they shall be BO paid thai
"recipient may purchase necessaries
"for himself and his family, whore
''they can be had best and cheapest.
"I do most earnestly recommend this
"subject to the Legislature for prompt
"and effectual action."— Gov. Cnrtin'*
Annual Menage of 1862.
The Lewistown Democrat puts Curtin's
majority in Mifflin at 350.
In 1870 Meek advocated the nomina
tion ofCurtin by the democrats for Vice
President; and asserted that he knew
Curlin was as good a democrat as there
was in the country. Why does he uot
now support him for Congress ?
In 1857 Cameron found in the Demos
cratic party Lebo, Wagonseller aud
Manier. In 1803 he found Boyer and in
JB7B MEEK.
CU HTIN OR YO<-UM?
Yolors of Centre can tliere bo nnv
qaeition for whom you shoirJd cast your
ballots in uoh n contort. <n the one
hand you have a man who hn* always
lived among you, grown up with you,
of undoubted ability and integrity, and
who la in 11K< past redacted honor and
credit upon you, and will again in the
future,—who baa always acted ujion
principle and would acorn to do aught
that would tiring reproach either upon
himself or his constituents, on the Other,
is a tnan who is a comparative stranger
in yonr midst, a carpet-bagger as it were
who haa always heretofore been identic
fled with tlie Republican party and has
cast every ballot he ever voted for its
candidates, and who apparently only
joined the Nationals for the purpose of
seeking office. Again on the one hand,
you have a man who has always been
opposed to and waged war with the
Cameron dynasty, and in order to com
pass whose defeat that family will leave
no stone unturned on the other, you
have a man who has always been iu
hearty acoorfl with that family,and who
is to-day supported and bolstered up by
Cameron's lieutenants and Cameron's
funds. This is the (juration you must
decide. And yet there are democrats
who would urge you to join hands with
Cameron and oppose Curt in ! The very
suggestion should be booted with scorn.
Never was tfcen- a* better opportunity
presented for passing a direct Judge
ment upon the house of Cameron, the
bane and disgrace of our Common
wealth, and we hope and know that the
democracy of the district will speak
in such thunder tones as will strike
terror into the heart of Cameron and
his democratic supporter* and sympa
thizers. He that is not for us in this
contest is ii.joi.ssf #, And to what ip
spect, we would like to know, is a

PILL, WAIU* *, Until AUAINST
HOTT, CAM MOM, Yocru ASU MEEK:—
Democrats, can you hesitate for a mo
ment whether to vote for Curtin, the
regular IVmoe ratio nominee, supported
by ♦);!), Wallace and Speer, or for Yo
cum, thojrenb~* nominee but whose
election is urged by Cameron, quay Hip
Chairman of the Republican state Com
mittee and Meek ? The latter refuses to
support Curtin, aud by so doing urges
you to aid Yocam, an unflinching Re
publicTn ~ no ' even * Ureenbaeker,—
whose election is T*** 1 b >'
Chairman Quay, Cameron's hmau.
Can I>emocrats expect any benefit from
such a combination? Certainly not.
Read what the Lewistown Sentinal, a
jtajter formerly opposed to Curtin has to
say upon this subject. It says:
"The order has come here from Don
Cameron's committee. Recorder Quay,
chairman, thai 'Republicans' must
fall into line and support Yocum for
Congress. The guarantee is given that
he w ill be 'all right aAer the- election, 1 '
which means that he intends to fool the
Greenbacken aAer he gets their votes.
'Curtin's defeat,' says this order 'must
t*> made effectual at all haxards.'"
There Democrats and Greenbackera is
the command sent forth from the Came
ron headquarters. Are you ready to be
made the dupes of the Winnebago tribe
—to be sold out body and soul to the
reigning clan who have been oppressing
the tax-payers of our Commonwealth
for more than twenty years, and bring*
ing us into contempt and disgrace
throughout the length and breadth of
the land? If not, arise in your might
and squelch those who would betrsy
you, and who, no doubt, in case of sue
cess expect, if they have not already,
their reward. Cameron's support in itself
should be sufficient to alienate all who
are battling against the "powers Hiat
be." In this contest, Democrats, Green
backers and anti-Cameron republicans
have all a common cause. Why not
join hands, and give not only Cameron,
but those who are endeavoring to sell
out both the Greenback and Democratic
organisations to him, such a crushing
defeat that they can never recover from
the blow? Down with Cameron-Green
barkers and Cameron-Democrats!

C. T. Alexander our nominee for Sen

sion upon the hardfisted yeomanry
there. Mr. Alexander will bo elected
by a large majority over tavern keeper
Oaldwell tbe mongrel nominee- Mr.
Alexander will be a prominent figure in
our state senate, and watch the interests
of his constituents with fidelity. The
democracy will have an active and able
defender upon the floor. Vote for Mr.
Alexander on Tuesday. His opponent
is a man of no attainments, and would
go for nothing in the senate of this
state.
Democrats, the Reporter says now
what the Wathman said in 1872: Give
Curtin every vote; the Camerons are
trying to defeat him; he should sun
ahead of the ticket on that account; the
republicans would glory in his defeat,
therefore it is the duty of every good
democrat to work all the harder for him.
Such and much more, was tbe argument
of the Watchman in 1872 in favor of Cnr
tin, and it does right well and even much
better, to repeat it in 1878.
If Curtin waagood enough in 1872 HE
IS SIX TIMES BETTER IN 1878, and
the Watchman knows it, and we can
use its own columns to prove it.
Soldiers who have received tbe
League Circular, read the able letter of
Mhj. Forstcr in this issue, on Pensions.
Who raised the salaries of legislators
hiWI congressmen? It wss the Cameron
party, and now it opposes Curtin because
he opposes their plunder schemes.
Do you want the Camoron family ar

vetoed, then vote for Kephartand Murray

Meek is improving. In 1874 he did
not support any person upon our dis

We never, in all the hiatory of Penn

lo defeat the democracy, as in now being
made by the Camcron'a.
Are you a democrat, reader of the
Reporter, then do your duty on next
Tueaday to your party now that you are
threateued by your moat corrupt ene
my.
There are many honest republican*
who hate the thieving Uamcruu gug an
much a* do honest democrats, to these
we appeal to throw off the yoke under
which they have so long smarted to the
disgrace of their party aud country, and
defeat the Cameron gatig by voting for
Curtin and the democratic ticket.
Honest men, next Tuesday ia the Jay
to show that you are for reform and
honest government. The issue is be
tween honeety and dishoneaty. On
which side will you stand?
of Centre, do uot forget!
that thi# i| tho election upon * hicb 1

you have been n hugging with the Came

your hat had really been cabbaged for

~wl u*e has been made
peter, that very n
of it, in putting out good healthy m.
cratic reading? The fact ia, when our 1
neighbor heard that the democratic
committee were having a list of demo
cratic names made out, he raised a cry
that his little list had been etuUu. Al
all events we saw no stray list about the
Reporter office, and know nothing about
any having been found or stolen.
If we were placed upon tbe witneas
stand about the Watchman'* alleged
stolen list, we would know as much as
Tilden does about the cipher dispatcher
Rut byway of dismissal of tbi* matter,
in which gray peter desire* to mix u*
we have only yet to Bay this: Don't you
remember, Gray, some (I or 8 year* ago,
in Spangler's hotel, you offered f25 to
any one that would steal certain papwm,
from the Reporter office ?
"Who steals my pur steals traib."
Who steal* my list plays smash.
When halfdoxen of the most distin
guished democratic ex-governor*, can 1
endorse Gov. Curtin for congress and
pronounce it good, it is queer that one
who had an idea of once being an ex
governor too, can't awallow Andy.
A GRAND RALLY AT PHIL>
IPSBURG.
Tho democratic meeting at Philipe
bnrg, on last Saturday, was one of the
largest held in tliia state during this
campaign, and a grand rally of the dem
ocracy of Centre, Clearfield and Clinton.
Four ex-governors, Hendrickf, of In
diana, Walker of Virginia, and Bigler
and Curtin of this state, were present;
also Mr. Africa our nominee for Sec'y of
In'l Aflgirs.
Gov. Itigler was chairman and deliv
ered a good speech. He was followed
by Gov. Hendricks who made a ringing
speech, that did every democrat's aoul
good to listen to. Upon ascending the
stand tremendous cheering went up
from tho assembled thousands, and
throughout his remarks he was fre
quently interrupted by applause. In
his opening he paid a glowing tribute to
Gov. Curtin, and said that no good dem
ocrat would refuse to vote for CurtiD. At
every mention of Curtin's name the
wildest cheers went up. Mr. Hendricks
then spoke upon the issues of the day
in a manner so forcible, yet so plain,
that none could fail to understand.
It was one of those speeches that do
good. Upon the greenback question—
and he is a grecnbacker—he explained
the folly of a democrat leaving the par
ty, and going into a new one, that can
have no prospect of getting into power.
We do not believe there was an honest
greenbacker present who failed to see
the truth of his remarks.
EX-GOT. Gilbert C. Walker next ap
peared and was greeted witla trcmcnil
oufl cheering. He alao strongly urged
democrats to give Curtin a aolid vote,
believing he would be an honor to the
party and of great service to the country
in congress. The governor then touched
briefly upon other topics, and on ac
count of a cold did not speak very long.
He is a fine, noble looking man. The
next speaker was our Andy. The cheers
that greeted him, wouldn't go into a big,
barn. It was a glorious meeting but we|
have not time for a more extended
mention.
There are bite of rare pathos in the Mem
phis newspapers nowadays. A lady going
to see a sick friend hoard her name call
ed. Turning, she saw a slender girl in
mourning advancing toward her. As the
child came nearer the lady rncognised In
her the daughter of a neighbor who died
the day before near the city. The little
girl threw her arms about the lady and,
sobbing, ctied : "You aren't afraid of
me, are you?" "No, my dear," was the
soothing reply. "Everybody olse is."
said the poor child. "They won't come
near mo bocause papa died of the fever,
and we were with him, I and mamma."
Meek oppoaes Curtin, to do Cameron
and <dunv 1 Cameron and Quay openly
support Yocum, while Meek says Curtin
is unworthy of Democratic support, but
Yocum is a "good inun" and if elected
"would make a creditable Congressman."
Democrats, what think you of Democracy
coming from ouch a source ? Cameron,
Meek, tpiay and Yocum I—what a combi

in the light of (hu kviigroitiouil record •
dnce 18?6, and then say that the democra- ,
cy ~** Persistently opposed all measures ,
for the benefit of pensioners. 1 can inly
conclude that it did not suit your imrpose '
to extend your list so at to include all law*
relating to pensions To have done to '
would havo exploded your bald claim of
exclusive credit to a "republican con- !
grets and a republican legislature" for
pension laws, and shown, indeed, that you
were guilty of "mere assertion."
In relation to one of tbe act* of a "re- ,
publican legislature" which 1 find on your
printed list. I desira, however, to say a
word or two more. The act it a* follows :
"Act i resolution it thould bs) ot the legis
lator* of Pennsylvania, March 7, 1878.
Requesting our member* of congress to ,
urge the passage of a bill which provide* ,
that all arrearage* of pensions which have
been granted hut which arp debarred froiv
some cause no; tie fault of the claimant,
i shall b# Paid in full, and that such arre*r
' *ges thai) commence from the date of the
I death or Uncharge of the soldiers entitled
; to the same."
| Why, let me ask, it the act to pay ar
rvarage* of pensions not now on the slat
j ute book ? A slight "investigation" will
; prove that it is owing to no fault ot a deui-
I ocralic house of representative* at Wash" i
jington. The Forty-fourth -.-egress was!

arrearage* of pensions are concerned, need
' inspire no fear in the breaalt of the mem-'
f bers of the Pennsylvania Soldiers'
League.
In glancing over the Cbnyrrssi -naf Ret
' i>rJ I was particularly struck with the case
I of Abram V Miller, whom I knew as a
acldier of the lata war from Centre coun
-1 ty, Pa., and for who** benefit a special*
I act was passed at the lata session of eon
, grins. The caae of Mr. Miller was one
that had for many years enlistud the earn
' est and heartfelt sympathy of every one
1 familiar with the circuniitar.ro* under
.1 which ho had incurred his disability, and
the cause by which ho was debarred from
' the benefits of existing pension laws. Dur-
ing the summer of 18'74 he went into the
service with tho rank of First lieutenant,
in a hatullion of the 184 th Pennsylvania
• volunteers, which wat sent to the front be
i fore the eomplalion of tho regimental or
ganization. Ho held a commission from
' tho governor of the statu, but uufortunale
' |y was compelled to go to tho front with
out a formal muster into the service of tho
' I*niled States. Tho detachment was hur
' rioil forward was joined tho army of the
< Potomac a day or two bofore the battle of
Cold Harbor. In the fight at Cold Har
bor, Llout- Miller received a frightful
' wound. Pur a long period of time be was
> a helpless being, and whan, after leaving
the service by roaton of tho disability rc
' suiting from this wound, he made applics
- lion for a pension hit anomalous position
as regards tho service was discovered and
' he found himself barred under any of the
' provisions of the law on the books, until
the 461h congress came to his relief in the
closing hours of tho session last summer.
In the proceedings of the house of repre
sentatives. on the lVlh of June. Panares
: rioiuU JUtord, 1878, No. 140, page 4, [ find
ilio following record of the case, honors
' Lie alike to the spacer (Mr Kendall, 1
i presume,) and the body rcr which he
speaker The chair finds upon
the table a pension bill that will be lost
• unless it is taken up at once. The chair
knows the disposition of the bouse in this
' respect, and the chair does not like to
i ij.vo any pension bill left over,
i "The bill (U. R. No. 1,625,) "granting*
pension to Abram V. Miller, late * |isu
'■ umanl in company E . of tho 184 th regi
' mcnl of Pennsylvania volunteers," re
i turnod from the senate with an amend
ment, was Ukan from the speaker's ta
bl"Thebill was read. It autborigof and
directs the secretary of the interior lo
nlaco upon the pension-rell tho name of
Abram V. Miller, late first lieutenant of
company E., Jblth regiment Pennsylva
nia volunteers, to dato frein the ,17th day
of January, 1878,
"Tho amendmont of the senate was as
follows : Stike out 'the 17th day of Janui '
ary, 1875.' and insert 'and after its pas- '
sage.' Tho amendment was agreed lo."
I introduce this esse, not for'lbo pur* 1
i,oee of finding fault with tho senate, but
merely to show that the bouse in fixing
the lime from which this pension should
date was only legislating in harmony with
its previous action In regard to arrearages.
Enough, however, is shown by it to prove
that if a question ofliberality in tbe grant
ing of pensions, and tho passage of pension *
bills, is raised betwocn a democratic bouse 1
and a republican senato during the exist- '
once ot the Forty-fourth congress, and '
thus far In the life of the Forty-fifth, the
balance will not he against the democratic <
"Xt n question like Ibis should not be 1

that, in the main, the representative men

Horr a mow aoTHiao
Notwithstanding the utter absurdity of
the charge in the face of developed fact*
at lo the insufficiency of bis age, the mere
rabid of the Republican proas still persist
in accusing M r Dill of haviag been a vlo
lent Know-Nothing For this reason, and
this alone, we ask atlerition to the fact
that Henry M Hoyt was the candidate ot
the Know-Nothing party in this county
for District Attorney in 1866, and was do
lea ted by General Winchester, the Demo
cratic candidate.
Tha Record of the 7\>nti, the now Re
publican. and the;* Whig and Know.
Nothing organ of tho county, in it* issue
of Sept. IV, 1866, contained the follow
in t
Ihe American County Convention as
seuibled at I'itlaloß last Wednesday (Sept.
A! , and put in nomination the following
named prraons for the office* lo be filled al
ibe ensuing election : • • • • Dis
trict Attorney, lle&ry M. UoyL • • •
And in another column of the same it
sue. the following :
The Whig Convention met yesterday
(Sept. 18) at tbe bouse of F. Ualme, Rings
ton, and nominated the following ticket:
• • X a In It net Attorney, Henry M.
Hoyt. • • *
I It will be observed that lloyt's nomina
tion cams first from tbe American* or
Know Nothings In further evidence of
hit cotr.ection with that organisation, the
Record of Oct. 17, of that year, in com
menting upon the result of the election,
said :
lie (Ketchtin nhwta. of all the candi
dates, tios>a a pure Whig, unconnected
,wixtx the other jsariiet-
The Enow-Nothing party was in those
days in tha hands of very bigoted men in
this county, in conflmation of which state
ment we have only to refer to the further
extracts below from tha same Record edi
torial .
V*ir idea* of aa American party favor
opposition lo the tremendous influence of
a united foreign part? in ibe caunlry U>
coolru) elections. The Popish-Irish un
der Bishop Hughe* and trie lager beer
Germani who worship tbelr drink a* the
former do the Pope, are full of Democracy
and easily led by Locofoco leader*. These
never show favor to the Whig*, but al
wav* go with the strong party for the sake
of lager and office. • • • Why noij

but for the blind and bigoted pertinency
of the opposition prat* in the repetition of
