The tneiwage of the fraudulent Presi*
•lent, after being boiled down to its real
meaning, leaves about the following
sediment In the bottom of the kettle
More money for the army to further
hayonetite the aouth for going demc
cratle. Mot* money for Uie navy. More
money for the poet-office department.
More nouev for the Indiana, wo a
ready cost over SIOOO per h * d um,fr
plundering radical agent*. More money
for the District of Columbta where Boe
Shepherd and other peU have so nicely
feathered their neata.
Well, there in one consolation in all
this—there is a democratic congress
which will anawer all this clamor for
more money bv cutting down the ap
propriations, as the democrats did in the
former congress.
In another column will be found the
proepeetns for the Pittsburg Poet, daily
and weeklv. The Post ia an old estab
lished paper, and baa always been a
favorite with u* It i one of the lead
ing democratic organs in this state. Per*
sons desiring a good weekly outside of
our own county, will find the Weekly

It ia annonnred that the capitol build
ing at Uarrisbnrg has just beea recar
peteii, at a eoet of $5,000. Kvery year
the capitol ring finda it necessary to have
new carpet* in the Semite *nd House
chamber*, and the committee rooms
These rooms are in use perhaps one
hundred days in the year, ami one can
judge how mnch the carpets are worn
We know that in former year* moat of
these carpet* when removed were as
good as new, and would have been plen
ty good enough for several yeara service.
They are carried off by the ring at the
capitol, and are either sold and the
money put into their own pockets or are
laid upon floora at their own residence*
We venture the assertion that the
carpets coat no sum near that amount
But these are aome ofthe way* in which
th* State is robbed. The whole buaiues.*
could be brought to light if a proper in*
vestigalion was made, and no favoritism
shown.
The Republicans appear to have
caught a TartAr in Daniel S. Kuaaeli'
whom tney elected to Congreea by a
coalition with the Greenbackers from
the Third District of North Carolina in
place of Col. Waddle. The Wilmington
Star, in reporting the proceeding* of a
Republican mase meeting to celebrate
their victory, states that Ruaeell "de
clared in favor of the payment of all
Southern claims, whether the claimants
were loyal to the Cnion or not, and the
pensioning of Southern as well as North
ern soldiers of the late war, each of
whom fought for the country."
By this time we think Yocum does
not so much feel like a congressman in
prospective , oraa if he were "the fellow
who heat Curtin." The papers for a
contest have been served, and tbia fact
may prey upon the mind of Seth to an
extent to diapel nil visions of the orna
mental "M. C." that waa to attach to his
name.
The people of the 20 district did not
elect Seth Yocum to congress at all.
Such a thing ia not in keeping with the
political sentiment of the voters of this
district, and they demand that fraud be
brushed aside and the man of their
choice, A. G. Curtin, represent them in
congress, which ia in voice with the
honrtt vote cast on the 6 of November
last.
When Blaine's committee gets to work
on unfair elections in toe south, let it
look around a little in this latitude and
it will find soma work in that line which
shows that the northern radical is as
good at his trade of fraud in the north
as was his carpet bag brother when he
practiced it in, and perhaps left it as a
legacy to, the south.
Gov. Curtin will get the seat beyond s
doubt. Fraud has been discovered in
favor of Yocum sufficient to wipe out
bis 73 and leave onr Andy several hun
dred majority to boot.
Blaine wants to investigate tbe south
ern elections—not the ones by which the
great presidential steal was consnmated,
but the election of a few congressmen
lately in South Carolina, which did not
pan oat well for be rade. In spite of
any frauds that might be perpetrated
anywhere by anybody, what greater im
pudence could there be than a radical
proposition to investigate election frauds,
after they themselves committed the
greatest fraud that it ia poeaibie to com
mit—stealing tbe presidency and de
frauding the entire nation !
Let them investigate,democrats won't
object, and have nothing to fear. A few
nights ago in Washington a conference
of a few leading Democratic Senators
was held at the residence of one of tbe
number to disease what steps shall be
taken to secure tbe adoption of tbe
amended resolution by the Senate. The
general opinion among Democrats see me
to be that while there will be considera
ble debate upon tbe resolution, tbe
amendments proposed will be adopted
by a good majority. It is tbe custom in
the Senate to authorize all investigations
which are proposed in good faith with
out limiting tbe scope of the inquiry..
The conclusions arrived at by the inves
tigators usually form the basis of dia
discussion. Senator Wallace says that
he believes tbe Democratic party lost 12,-
000 votes in tbe Bute of Pennsylvania
at the recent elections because of tbe in
terference of Federal officers at the
polls.
Blaine's resolution purposed to inves
tigate the conduct of the election offi
cers of the States. The Democratic
Amendment proposes that the action of
federal as well as State officers be ex
amined. The Democrats want to know
from whom the horde of United States
officers, marshals, who kept thousands of
honest voters away from the polls in
the Eastern States on election day re
ceived their pay. A very strong impres
sion exists the Congress will be asked to
pay these men for their work. It is cer
tain that the Democrats in Congress will
not appropriate a dollar for the pay of
Federal supervisors and marshals ol
elections until the exact nature of the
service performed by them is under
stood, and if it is shown that these offi
cials interfered with the rights of voters
at the polls they will never be paid by
Democratic legislation.
A prominent Democratic Senator said
to-day: "We favor the fullest investi
gation of the elections in all the States,
and when the book is balanced I believe
the Republicans will wish that they had
hot entered on the little campaign pro
posed by Blaine. It would be strange,
indeed, if some frauds were not practis
ed in the elections io States whew, the
people had been governed by fraud for
the past fifteen yeara. Hut if nn inves
tigation ran be had of the elections in
the Northern States touch greater Inter
ference with the freedom of citirena at
the polls will be discovered than has
heen alleged to have taken place In the
Southern States at the last election*"

These wrong* were committed, some in

dare not go unchallenged, and Gov. Cur
tin would not be doing tha part of a good
citiaen if he had permitted Mr. Yocum to
take hi* teat without a ccnleit in lbs face
of lucb outrageous frauds and irregulari
ties. This was a desperate attempt to
cheat tha democracy out of a congress
man, but the case of Gov. Curtin >s o
clear and strong, that the conspirators will
find themselves foiled in the end, and
Gov- Curtin much to their chagrin, will
take tha seat in congress to which the
nonest vote of this district entities him.
Hare is more room for Hayes to talk
shout fraud, and for Blaine to investi

Gov. Curtin will come OUt of this con
test with a majority of from KM) to 1500.
A touching story to the effect that not
one Henahhcan vote was counted by the
South lS>lina bulldozers in Fairfield
•ounty, where reeide nearly three thou
sand Republican voters, is going the
rounds of the Northern press. It is s
fact that no Republican votes were cast,
but, inasmuch as the Republicans put
no State ticket in the field and nominat
ed no candidate in that Congressional
district, the fact is not surprising.
And yet the fraudulent President in
his message has the brase to speak about
punishing fraud down there. If that is
not impudance what is ?
According to the New York Herald's
Washington correspondent, the "Little
Jokers" of South Carolina and Florida,
are a republican invention returned to
nlagne the inventors. This correspond
ent says:
There is tometbing refreshingly cool
sud impudent in the clamor which some
of the republican politicians are making,
over the use of the small onion skin
tickets, called "little jokers," in some of
tbe North Carolina counties at the re
cent election. The Southern republi
cans, who now cry out about these in
struments of fraud, were the inventors
of them, and used them with great ef
fect in the election of 1876. In fact one
of them, a Florida republican, who now
holds* place in the Treasury Depart
ment here, is reported to have boasted
that the seventy-four "little jokers"
which he deposited in the ballot box of
which he was the guardian carried the
State for Hayes.

Much indignation has been excited here
among respectable Republicans a* well
as democrats by the atroclot s attacks of
the New York Tribune on Senator
1 ainar. ft is considered that Senator
!.amar more than any other man made
th. . sisteno* of the Haves Administra

nouncing it every where as "infamous. '
He owes Haves nothing and llayea owes
him much. All the summer through

pestiten'-e was busv in all homes There
was alo'ute peace throughout llie State

results on the part of all blacks as well

to drive the Southern jieople into gener
al hostility to honest raoner by conspir
ing with Sheruian and Hayes, whom
Sherman now openly rules, to create a
belief a! the North and West of an at
tempt to revive sectional controversy.
Senator l-amar, when Interviewed in
Ohio, said very truly that if the Kouth
found self government assailed, or at
tempts made to overthrow order at the
South by black Kearneyism, no question
of currency could be listened to. Ihe
course of the Tribune is believed hero
to be a deliberate attempt of Jay Gould
and his clique to disturb the business of
the country, depress values and weaken

CHEAPER COAL.
The coal combination, if not upon ita
last legs, seems at least to need a very
stout crutch to enable it o hobble. The
agreement to increase by one million
tons the amount to be miued in I>ecem
ber shows that the combination is its
own worst enemy, for it indicates a de
gree of greed n the part of some of the
parties to the com [act wliicb can only
result in overproduction, the fear of
which, with I'.S consequent reduction of
price, is the combination's only excuse
for existence. Three million tons,'which
is the quantity now agTeed upon as tho
December yield, is nearly twice as much
as was miued during the corresponding
month of either of the four preceding
years. "When rogues fall out," how
ever, the cash purchaser can usually get
the swag at reduced figures, and it is
about certain that the great I>ecember
yield, with the almost certain d;aaolu
tiou of the combination on the last day
of the year, will result in a reduction of
prices. .Such a possibility has already
been discounted by some New York
dealers, who are offering to fill future
orders at a reduction upon present rates,
and men in a business so close as that of
coal selling are not going to make auch
offers without being sure of their ability
to fill them without loss. Fmcceea to the
smash-up!
80 says the Herald, and anything that
will put down the price of coal will be
hailed with delight by millions. This
article of fuel has not fallen in price to
correspond with the decline in price*
for almost everything else.
DR C.YA'C.V J I'DOES.
Washington city has a judge who is a
bad egg, and who has a great longing for
Grant, who par excellence, has always
given shelter to thieves and drunkards.
According to recent information this pet
of Grants is likely to be impeached by
tbe house. The fact is reported thus:
A resolution which has been prepared
will probably be introduced in the House
on Monday 9, looking t i tbe impeach*
ment of Judge Humphreys, of the Su
preme Court of this liiatnct, on several
grounds, the principal one of which ia
intoxication. The Republican to-day no
tices ilie latest spectacle made of him
self by this drunken Judge in its report
of a case yesterday, when it says: "Jua
lice Humphrey* was in a condition
which indicated that he had not been
faithful to the pledge which, it is stated,
he once publicly ratified by smashing
his black bottle. He gave evidences of
intoxication which amused many and
distressed others, it was with difficulty
ttiat His Honor preserved his equili
brium in walking to the consultation
room, and he required tbe assistance of
a messenger to remove his overcoat.
The luines of liquor were heavy upon
his breath, and his utterance was seri
ously affected. What he had to say was
jerked out in maudlin, disjointed sen
tences that were almost unintelligible."
The Judge's friends have endeavored to
get him to resign, but he says be was ap
pointed by Grant and intends to stay on
tbe bench until Grant President
when he knows be will tie protected.
They are trying a drunken Judge in
New York city, he kept bottles of liquor
on a shelf behind his judicial seat; took
drinks openly while trials were in pro
gress, and it was frequently necessary,
owing to his besotted condition, to ad
journ courts. Judge Piuckney is the
man.

HAYES TO BE ASKED BY THE
BOISE TO TROVE BIS OL'T
HA OE ALLEGATIONS.
Washington, December 6.—A highly
important conference of conspicuous
Southern Democrats wss held last even
ing, at which it was decided to oj>en at
tack on Hayes' message, in the House,
by calling on Intu to produce proof of
bis statements. Senators l.ainar, Gor
don ami Butler, Representatives Ellis
and Gibson, and Evins of South Caro
lina, and Siemmons of Arkansas were
present. !t was decided that Gibson
should present a resolution, which, after
reciting in a preamble the utterances of
the message, will request Hayes to in
form the House of the nature, extent
and sources of proof upon which these
grave charges are made against exten
sive regions of the country.
It is said bv those at the conferene,
and was strongly asserted there, that
Hayes has notand cannot produce cred
ible evidence upon which to substan
tiate his charges. M. C. Butler, for in
stance, said that as far as intimidation
in the Congressional district where he
lives is concerned, he would willingly
rest his case on negro testimony. In
other instances of alleged outrages
which w< re brought forward, those par
ticipating in the conference expressed
the belief that it could be satisfactorily
shown that where they wers un
aided invention of Republicans they
were largely exaggerated by them.

hae been ao intimidation, at leatt In the
South, and thev doubt whether the fraud*
can be punished a* they dosrrvo Hut the
Republican* themielvee framed and en
acted the*a Federal election law*, and
they in ado them odioutly aevere In many
particular*. It I* net prohable that thi* or
any tature Cengreae will add to them. The
Republican* would would like to get up a
new excitement about .Southern outrage*.
Several of them came here with the Inten
Hon to preeenl resolution* ordering an in
vestigation or locking to a decrease of the
representation in the Southern Stale*, on
the ground that the negro vote doe* net
come forward. Indeed, ins,rue quarter*
there is a disposition to disfranchise the
blacks outright byway of lessening the'
representation of the Southern .States But
all the*e schemers receivs n check from 1
ttie fact that the more closely the conduct
ef ilia Southern elections it trained thr
more it is t an that frauds and disorder*
were local and sporadic and not tystemai i
ic. and that there is very little materiel for
a new anti-Southern cry. The more pru
dent Kapublicetis incline |o wait for the
reu|t of iko trial* which will presently be
gin, and think It better to found any ac
tion which may seem advisable upon the
developments before the court*. But It is
probable that some tupercealou* persons
will offer resolution* of investigation
1 has* give a* a reason for a Congressional
inquiry that the colored vote ha* to some
extent disappeared in many of the States,
but there are many reasons for this. Ev
ery Southern Republican knows that the
colored vete cannot be got out without a
great deal of preliminary work and the ex
penditure of money and promts** The
mere desire to *vade the pay meal of a poll
tax deter* many thousand* of eolured lure
Irom voting, and it i* notorious that they i
havna Lab,; of telling their registration
certificate*, which ha* on previous occa
eions reused the mysterious disappearance
of thoueande of colored vol** and a great
and to uiany people puxeling discrepancy
between the regiitralion and the vote. It
ie doubtful if the Democrats will oppose a
Congressional ieveatigation 1f it ta de
manded by their opponent* They be
! lieve it will do no harm.
THE NEW PENITENTIARY,
There is a little d. Amity about the mat
ter ef erecting tbe new penitentiary at
lluatiagdon which may result in taking!
jthat institution elsewhere. It will be re-'
membereJ what a competition there *ai
among * number of the counties, each en
Jeavoring le secure the penitentiary with-'
in its own borders. All of the competing
parties offered sites free of cost to the
Stale and soma of them other favorable
term* in addition, liuntlngdon not only!
offered *he necessary ground*, but aleo alt J
the building stone and water Tbi* fact,
no doubt, Influenced tbe cnmmiteieeeri
Bel a little la giving Huntingdon Co tbe
preference.
But now tbe citixees in several of the
township* in the county hove petitioned
the court to grant an injunction restrain
ing a* countf commi*ioner from ex
pending the county .nas in the purchase
of a site and the other promised thing* for
'the proposed penitentiary Th* county
' comm.stlonert have also reronsiderej
their former action, and now refute to
Comply wth their former pledget. What
effect all th,* a*!" b * T
'.eatiarf commissioners remains to be
seen It is true lb* art creating the eom-j
mission appropriated SIOO,OOO for th* ex
pe&eae and the purchase of a * to. hut tbey
will hardly feel justited in atailiag tham
selves of the appropriation for the latter
purpose wbea a number of counties stand
ready to donate tbe naces'arv lands If
tbe action of tbe Huntingdon Co. comwii*
sioners it persisted in, it it ta<<ra tben like
ly that after all that county will not see
the pi'■{>•** 1 building erected on her #oi\,"
and that it will now go to una of her ri
vals. It may be a piece of questionable 1
policy for e county to burlen iiteif with
debt for such a purptse. but with that the, 1
