Meeting of Mr. Logan's Packed Com-
mittee,
M. M. Logan, chairman of what he
would like to force upon the Republi
can organization as the Republican
County Committee,Offered us for pub
lication a call for a meeting of his
packed Committee, 'but as we intend to
oppose anything like disorganization
we refuse to publish it, and shall re
fuse to recognize any 'action of the
Committee as speaking for the Repub-.
hoar' party. Mr. Logan must under
stand that he cannot expect to lead in
an organization he appears to be a
willing help to try to destroy. .Re
cannot oppose the ticket of the party
and at the same time expect to be
recognized as chairman of an impor
tant committee of the party. The
committee he calls together was ap
pointed contrary to the expressed di
rection of the County Convention, and
whilst we. May be correct in admit
ting the - loyalty of a large majority of
the members of the Committee to the
ticket; we must deny that they were
appointed in accordance With the in
structions of the * Convention. The
following.ntotion made in the Conven
tion by H. Q.:Weaver, and which we
find in the Proceedings of the Conven
tion as handed over to us by Mr.
Shaffner one of the Secretaries, and
the same is to be found in the "full
report of the proceedings" as published
in the - four nal and American, reported
by Bobt. McDivitt, editor of that paper,
and adopted without opposition : "ON
MOTION, THE DELEGATES TO THIS CON:
VENTION WERE AUTHORIZED TO NAME
THE MEMBERS OFTHE COUNTY COMMIT
TEE."
In the face of the above facts,-Robt.
McDivitt, editor of the Journal and
American, will deny in that paper of
this week that any motion of the
kind was offered or adopted in the
Convention. We know, as others do,
that the above motion was made and
put to the, Convention by the presi
dent, and declared by him adopted.
The Committee has been packed by
the Chairman - and the disorganizers
acting with him for the purpose of
creating dissensions in the organize
tion of the Republican party of the
county. He has refused positively to
put on the Committee many whose
names were banded to him in accord
ance with the motion adopted by the
Convention, asserting that he would
select the Committee himself.
The true party men on the packed
Logan Committee should not respect
his call until he is willing to obey the
instructions of the Convention that
unfortunately for the harmony of the
party elected him. The action of the
Logan packed Committee 'will not be
respected by the Republican party.—
The purpose of Mr. Logan and bis ad
visers disorganization and' th'e de
feat of a portion of the Republican tic
ket, and,Republicans who do not wish
to be recognized as unfaithful to their
party organization' Should be very
careful what company they get into.
Ae• the Journal & American is under
the control of the dieorganizers we
will keep the true men of the party
advised of their movements. It is the
duty of a party paper to support the
party ticket and the party organiza
tion, and to oppose anything and eve
rything and anybody opposed to either
McClellan, Seymour, Clymer,
wore nll defeated on their record dur
ing the rebellion. McClellan, though
a good soldier, gave himself, body and
breeches, to the Democrats who de
clared the war "a failure ;" Seymour, a
pleasant old gentleman, Was dragged
to death by his compatriot Frank
Blair, who was in favor of revolution,
and by his concessions to the rebels;
Clymer, the first man the" Democrats
put up to run against Geary, was de
feated on his war record—and now we
have Packer, who comes out as the
gigantic millionaire, who with all his
wealth refused to give the government
ono dollar to help it in the struggle for
freedom and right, and who even
steals away when the tax collector
comes round. 0, Asa, we envy not
your wealth, we do not want your lu
cre, but won't you lot us know if you
have done something to make you
popular with the people. Your admi
rers can tell us nothing about your lib
eralty, and we can not help but believe
that you are penurious, very. Why
I wore you not the Robert Morris of the
slaveholder's Rebellion, and given of
your wealth to aid in crushing treason?
Was it because your sympathies were
all in favor of "Southern rights?"
la,. The Journal & American of this
week pitches into us about a foot or
two because we did not act with the
Republican party two and three years
ago. Then we were honest enough to
go "out" and act openly against the or
ganization, but the Journal & American
editors play the disorganizers under
cover of the party they dishonor. Be
men,.-and be what you claim to be—
not enemies of the party in disguise.—
Toll your masters to come out of the
dark with you. Remember, you will
succeed about as well this fall as you
did in your guerillaism against the sol
dier, Capt. Neely, last fall.

Party Organization, and Success.
The„Reputdican party can only be
defeatiiid - by the disorganization of its
ranksA, To -prevent disorganization
the minority must yield to the will of
the majority. A' County Convention
of delegates. from all the election dis
tricts 'represents the party of the coun
ty, and its action is positive with all
true friends of the party. Our late
County Convention nominated a full
county "ticket—and that ticket can
only be defeated by mon professing to
be friends of the Republican party.
As yet there is no public, outspoken,
manly opposition to the ticket, but we
hear and see daily a guerrilla opposi
lion to it—not because it is not com
posed of as good men as in former
campaigns, but because certain men
were successful in not having placed
upon the ticket more of their selection.
The first step taken by the disor
ganizers after the adjournment of the
Convention was to ignore the action
of the delegates in the appointment of
a County Committee. That Commit.
tee the Convention directed should be
appointed by the delegates, but the
selection of Committee men made by
delegates has been treated with silent
contempt by the Chairman of the Com
mittee who has not hesitated to de
clare that he will oppose the election
of at least a portion of the ticket. The
Chairman, Mr: Logan, had no author
ity to appoint a single member of the
Committee. The Committee ho and
his disorganizing associates may rec
ognize as a Committee is not the Com
mittee authorized by the Convention
and will not be recognized by the Re
publican party of the County as the
County Committee, and we give Mr.
Logan notice that unless he speedily
obeys the directions of the County
Convention that the Convention Will
reassemble and displace him and ap.
point a Chairman who will be true to
the party, its organization and its in
terests. The Union Republican party
cannot afford to have at the head of
its county organization a man unwill
ing to work in harmony with the
friends of a regularly nominated tick
et. We say to all honest Republicans
in the county, organize in • your dis
tricts—stand firm to your party nom
inations—treat with contempt all who
are trying by the disorganization of
your ranks to give the sham Democ
racy a victory over you.
MORE QUESTIONS FOR DEMOCRATS.-
Did Asa Packer do what be could to
crush the rebellion ?
Wouldn't his $20,000,000 have gone
far to help to feed and clothe soldiers ?
How much money did
.Asa Paelcer
give to Christian and Sanitary Com
missions?
Did Asa Packer, like Gov. Geary,
lose a son in the army?
Would it bo lair or just to elect a
man like Packer as Governor of this
State, who never helped to obtain its
credit as a loyal State.
Asa Packer, with all his money,
skulks from paying his taxes. Is he a
safe man to trust as Governor?
Asa Packer, a man who never did
anything to support his'Government,
accepts the position as candidate for
Governor over Gen. Hancock. Should
you vote for him ?
The Bogus Logan County Committee.
We wish it to be distinctly under
stood that wo are not opposed to the
men as Republicans placed upon the
Logan Committee by Mr. Logan. Wo
are oppOsed to them acting as Com
mittee men only because they were
not appointed as directed by the Coun
ty Covention, and we aro pleased to
bear of several appointed by the dis
organizers who will refuse to act with
or recognize Logaa's Committee as the
County Committee of the party. Mr.
Logan and his few guerrilla advisers
will soon learn how "unpopular and
unprofitable" it is to undertake to dis
organize and defeat the Republican or
ganization of the county.
Er - There nre two things which the Jour
nal & American . has never yet been guilty
of—playing guerilla and going back on a
soldier."—Journal & American.
How about your guerrillaism to de.
feat Capt. _Neely last fall. How about
your denouncing Scott and Morrell on
the public streets for appointing Capt.
Blair to the Post Office? Did you
decline in favor of Captain Blair? How
about it gentlemen? Are you in favor
of the election of ovory man on the
Republican County `Picket? If yea,
say so, and so inform your readers.
air The opposition of the disorgani
zers appears to be mainly directed at
Mr. McK. Williamson, the candidate
for County Treasurer. We wish every
voter in the county could be person.
ally acquainted with McK.
son. He is not the kind of man to be
defeated by disorganizers, and Mr.
Cloyd will learn to his sorrow that he
made a great mistake in allowing him
self to be influenced to run in opposi
tion to the regularly nominated Re
publican candidate.

•PtirThe Lehigh• Register announces
its determination to fight Asa Packer
With its whole strength ; "to bring
facts upon facts to show that he is not
fit to be Governor of Pennsylvania;
that his promises are to be scorned as
worse than stuff; that he acquired his
wealth as other millionaires have ac
quired theirs, and that in trying to
delude, laboring men into' voting for
him by declaring that he was once one
of thein•and acquired his fortune by
honest, toil, be displays a weakness the
people of Pennsylvania don't admire."
It also Says: "There will be dead men
arising from their tombs to give in
their testimony, and the people, not
withstanding the false swearing of
Democratic newspapers and the plead
ings of Democratic orators, shall bring
in a verdict of guilty, and sentence
him to stay in private life, whore he
will have more opportunities to invent
Lehigh Valley freight companies, and
compel the people to pay higher
freights than the railroad company
could legally charge."
tThe Hon. Asa Packer is no doubt
a rich man and be may be a great
man, yet he is not above those infirm
ities which beset noble minds. He is
much cut tip by the Mauch Chunk
Gazette for diddling Carbon County
out of taxes for the support of schools,
of almshouses and of roads, by preten•
ding to live in Philadelphia. Ho "stays''
in Carbon about as much as ever, and
keeps up. there a handsome establish
ment, and when be is "at home," i. o.)
when taxes are to be assessed, be is,
from his head to hie heels, a Philadel
phian I Thus, says the Gazette, "he
defrauds the county of taxes which
rightfully belong to its treasury, by
turning over his taxes to a county a
hundred miles away. Here is a proph
et who clearly is not entitled to much
honor in his own county, whether he
may get it or not.

It is also an honor to Pennsylvania, to

ted Gen. T. F. McCoy for Assembly ;
Alexander Morrison for Sheriff, and
Charles S. Marks for County Treasu
rer. The best of good feeling prevail
ed throughout the proceedings. We
learn. that the Republicans of little
Mifflin are fully aroused to the impor
tance of' the issues in the present cam
paign, and2intend to make a vigorous
fight, with , a determination to win.
The convention selected the very best
in the county, from Assembly down,
with a full determination to elect

them God-speed in the good work.
A BRIEF LETTER --A correspondent
writes to Brick Pomeroy, the follow
ing brief put pointed letter, which is
more expressive than elegant:
August 10.
M. M. Pomeroy:—l have just finished read
ing to•day's Democrat. You are certainly a
damned fool. Yours, CANDOUR.
We imagine we can hero the people,
the press, the pulpit, the bench, the
bar,—in fact, everybody but a fow
unhung rebels—exclaim in the fullness
of their hearts, Amen. Indeed, Brick
don't deny the soft impeachment, but,
then, like the clown, perhaps be gets
paid for being a fool.
par The Democrats of Mifflin county
met in Convention on the 23d ult., and
placed a county ticket in nomination.
They did not nominate a candidate for
Assembly, it being conceded to Juni
ata county. The Gazette says that the
principal nomination was for treasu
rer, with plenty of candidates, thus
affording ample material for collect
ing a good candidate, but the Conven
tion, with its usual wisdom, selected
the most unpopular, least influential
and least deserving of the whole lot.
tlgt—The Democrats of Dauphin coun
ty have gone to the trouble of nomi

Why should the Connecticut carpet

The Republican Banner (Democrat)
of Nashville. is disgusted with the
New York World for claiming the ro
suit in Tennessee as a victory for the
Democracy as represented by the
World.
The Boston Traveler says that State
street highly commends
,Secretary
Boutwell's policy, and expects that if
gold and bonds aro kept so near par as
at present, specie payments will be

Truly we live in a progressive age;
but that would be a big step backward
to elect Asa Pucker as Governor of
Pennsylvania, who is the representa
tive of all the nauseous principles of
the Peace Democrats.
Asa Packer was never popular at
his own home as a political aspirant.
Even before the war, and his inglori
ous "war record " was formed, he only
run four votes ahead of his ticket, as
a Councilman. Where will he' he as
Governor'?
Not a single candidate for office in
Kentucky, at the late election, who
had been in the Confederate army.was
defeated. This is the result over
which the Democrats of Ohio threw up
their bats, and which they claim as a
"great Democratic victory." And so
it is.
Information wanted of William
Minaler and C. L. Pershing. Any
facts regarding these two individuals
will be gratefully received by the De
mocratic papers of Pennsylvania.—
Feats of statesmanship, loyal senti
ments, patriotic acts, etc , particularly
requested.
Though the Vermont election is but
throe weeks off, and that of Maine but
four weeks off, there is not the slight
est political animation in either State.
No public meetings aro being held, the
local papers scarcely allude to the sub
ject, and with the people themselves
the question of Pendleton and Hays in
Ohio, and Packer and Geary in Penn
sylvania, are of much more interest.
Packer is an avowed freo trader,
and carried his free trade principles
into practice by purchasing the iron
for his railroads in Europe. But what
difference does it make to him wheth•
er the rolling mills of Pennsylvania
are,in operation or suspended ? He is
immensely rich and can live in afflu
ence if the toiling rolling mill men
have to stint themselves to keep their
wives and children.
Tbo Mauch Chunk Gazette, publish
ed at the home of Mr. Packer, says ho
is very unpopular there, even among
his own party, and "from present ap
pearances he will not carry half his
party vote in the coal mines." "His
pettish conduct and niggardly want
of liberality towards his own county
and town, has alienated very many
of our citizens who have known him
longest and best."
There is an open rupture between
the Tammany managers and the Man
hattan Club party. :The'"William
Tweed_ Democratic ASsociatien," at a
meeting Friday evening, adopted res
olutions denouncing August Belmont,
chairman of the Democratic National
- Committee as an inefficient, undevoted
unsuccessful, and unpopular chair
man; charging him with the defeat
of McClellan, and that jibe remains in
the position , !;0 now occupies he will
"inevitably lean to the defeat of Hoff
man in 1872," as il - ado - puffing that he
surrender the chairmanship, which lie
will not probably do at the bidding of
Mr Tweed or his heelers.
The New York Evening Post,
speaking of the situation of the two
political parties, describes that of the
Democrats exactly in a few words, as
follows: "Pledged to oppose China
men in California and negroes in Ohio,
but affiliating with them both in Vir
ginia and Tennessee ; supporting re•
pudiation in Ohio and Kentucky. and
compelled to oppose it in New York
and Pennsylvania; denouncing .mili
tary usurpation in Texas, but having
a Governor to uphold in New York for
taking military possession of a railroad
—the Democratic managers have a
heavy and inharmonious load to carry."
