HUNTINGDON, PENN'A.
Wednesday Morning, Nov. I, 1871
AN EARNEST WORD TO THOSE
OF OUR SUBSCRIBERS WHO
HAVE FAILED TO PAY UP.
Those Who Owe us Nothing Need not
Read This—lt is not Intended for
Them.
We hope, however, that every subscri
ber, who has not settled with us, will read
what follows and take advantage of the
suggestions: We do not desire to dun you,
and yet, for the life of us, we do not see
how we can avoid it. You fail to pay and
we need our money badly. If there were
only one, or two, or a dozen, or even a
hundred of you, we might very readily
stand it, but when you are told that out of
the 1600 bona fide subscribers on our list,
not one-half of the number have paid up
for the year 1871, you begin to see that it
figures up an aggregate that will run our
establishment four or five months. But
independent of the inconvenience we sus
tain, in not having our money and in being
obliged to make our creditors wait, it is
only adding additional expense upon you.
And here we desire to say that there is no
man in Huntingdon county so poor that
he cannot take and pay two dollars a year
for his county paper. Where is the man,
we ask, who cannot save one dollar, in six
months, for a newspaper ? And as to the
relative influence of the newspaper, it is
next to the Bible; the latter teaches the
way to Heaven, while the former teaches
the way of the World, and no one can ex
pect to make much headway, either here
or hereafter, without a pretty accurate
knowledge of both. But this is a digres
sion. The rich man just as frequently
fails to pay as the poor man. Why F Be
cause heconsiders two dollars a mere trifle,
and, we suppose, thinks we regard it in
the same light. We might were it not for
the frequent duns that are thrust at us.—
But remember the ocean is made up of
drops of water and the desert of mere tiny
grains of sand. But outside of our needy
circumstances we would like to get our
subscription business to as near a cash ba
sis as possible. We can't have a very good
opinion of the subscriber who allows his
subscription to run for years without ma
king an effort to pay up, and before any of
our subscribers have time to run up bills
we want them to pay and keep paid up.
Now, then, if auy of our subscribers,
who are in arrears for 1871, will come for
ward and pay us FOUR dollars, at any
time up to November Court, we will give
them a receipt for this and the next year,
or, in other words, we will receive payment
at the rate of two dollars per year. Don't
Sail to avail yourselves of this proposition.
THE RAID AGAINST TOBACCO ,
In our last we noticed the testimony of the Bap
tists in Philadelphia against the use of tobacco,
and added ours to theirs. Since then we see that
Amherst College, one of our largest and beet col
leges, has decided to grant no pecuniary aid here
after to students who use tobacco or ardent spirits.
A Methodist Conference, in Massachusetts, a short
time since, voted to receive no young man into
their body who should use tobacco in any way.--
The Presbyterian bodies arc also condemning its
nse by their young men. We hare said, next to
rum, tobacco is most injurious to the human sys
tem, and especially to those of tender age. We
ropeat it, and are heartily glad to see these power
ful religions bodies moving effectually in the right
direction.
We clip the abo;'e extract from the Del
aware County Republican, and endorse it
most heartily. The day should be approach
ing, rapidly,when every intelligent Christian
nine, woman and child should set them
selves against this barbarous practice. And
we have no hesitation in saying that the
habit is a barbarous one, just as much
so as drunkenness. Let Christianity re
move these twin relics of barbarism and
we will be severed from the past and hea
then world ; but so long as our people are
addicted to these filthy and debauching
practices, we are only a remove from the
debased red man or the disgusting mussel
man. What advantage, yea what pleasure,
is there in drawing smoke through the stem
of a stinking and nauseous pipe, or through
a roll of filthy weed, or rolling a quid of
horrid stuff, which for all the world re
sembles so much of the lowest order of
filth, in the mouth ? It is nothing but
the merest habit imaginable, picked up by
imitation, as one monkey imitates another.
If this is the case, and we verily believe it
is, how necessary is it that the persons who
are regarded as models in the community
should be exempt from such debasing hab
its ? And who are the persons who 'are
generally taken as models in the compu
nity ? Why those wh;•se duty it is to in
struct the mind in things sacred and pro
fane—the minister and the schoolmaster.
Yea, in the hands of these professions are
placed the morals of the community. If
they set evil examples, the apish disposi
tion of the human family will see to their
propagation. And how frequently do they
set evil examples? A few Sabbaths ago
we were seated at our window overlooking
the street. The clatter of the feet of a
horse attracted our attention. • To a Lini
ment a genuine specimen of the American
"Jakey" dashed by. He presented all the
swagger and "style" of the period ; his hat
perched upon one tide of his head and a
cigar protruding from his mouth, from
which he whiffed volumes of smoke, with
an air that said louder than words : "Ain't
this charming style?" Well, the monkey
rode on. We reflected a moment., but only
for a moment, upon this kind of black
guardism, when our ears caught the rapid
rumble of carriage wheels. It passed us
in a moment. ',lnside the vehicle were
seated two clever young gentlemen, just
starting in life, both on the short side of
twenty-five years, preparing themselves for
some one of the over-crowded professions,
and to do this, they have been compelled
to seek employment as country school
masters. The experience of almost every
poor young man in the country. But what
we want to get at, is, that each of these
schoolmasters, these "nice young men,' ,
whose duty it is to set bright examples fur
our youth, had a cigar in his mouth, and
were, no doubt, vieing with each other as
to which could puff the larger quantities
of smoke. We were disgusted, and men
tally said some harsh things at the expense
of these young trainers of the youthful
mind. But our mortification and disgust
were to be put to the severest test, We
had not yet touched bott,m. Are
W mo
ments later, while trying to free ourself
from the unpleasant feelings which the
other intruders had created. what was our
a,tonishinent-uur unutterable amazement
—to see a minister of a Christian church,
in good standing, pass dovin the opposite
side of the street with a huge, long-stem
med, big-bowled pipe in his mouth ! Oh,
shame, where is thy blush ? Disgusted
b yond measure, unable to do the subject
justice, we fled from the window, not
knowing, if we remained, but. what we
might have to witness something still more
humiliating and barbarous. Is it not,
then, time, friend Walter, that the colleges
and churches were turning their attention
to the uprooting of this loathsome practice
—this filthy habit? We say here, that
we are, henceforth, opposed to putting
young men into the ministry and into the
school-room who are addicted to this filthy
vice, and if young men cannot be found
who have pride enough to disconnect them
selves from the barbarisms that have come
down to us, their places must be filled by
women. We must have women teachers
and women preachers. The women are
unquestionably better civilizers than men;
they are more refined, more honest, more
virtuous, and, consequently, better exam
ples. We must have good examples. We
pay the teacher and the preacher as much
for their example as for their labors, and
we must have the church and the school
on the side of civilization and in opposition
to barbarism.
EDITOR
DEMOCRATIC RASCALITY
The Democratic party, by long experi
ence, became one of the most corrupt and
arrogant parties known to politicians.—
What it failed in actual popularity and
strength, it learned to make up by fraud.
It, however, attached itself to the skirts of
slavery and slavery went under and pulled
it down to the verge of ruin. When the
party began to realize its situation, it found
itself defeated from one end of the land to
the other, except where the spirit of slave
ry still obtains a foothold. Chagrined, at
its innumerable defeats, its pet institution
gone, and lasting disgrace staring it in the
e3es from all quarters, the old worn-out
and wretched carcass had some of the old
fire infused into it during the recent cam
paign, and when defeat again came it de
termined to bring into requisition the old
time practices, which it had learned in the
days of its prosperity. Accordingly the
Democratic return judges of the Nineteenth
Senatorial district, composed of the coun
ties of Cumberland and Franklin, refused
to give the certificate of election to J. M.
Weakley, Republican, though the offipial
vote showed that he had a majority in the
district of 803, on the ground of alleged
fraud.
The following are the documents setting
forth this revolutionary act, being the pro
ceeding of the return judges, the advice of
the Psstrict Attorney and the affidavit of
a miserable tool named Dungan :
We the return judges of the 19th Senatorial dis
trict, having met at the court home, in Carlisle,
on October 17, 1871, to count up the votes east in
said district, composed of Cumberland and Frank
lin counties, for a Senator therefrom, do certify
that upon the county returns it appears that in the
county of uumberlaud .1. M. 'll . .ssUlag 145.1 4,200
votes, and that llenry K. Peffer had 4,114 votes.
In tLe county of Franklin J. M. Weakleyhad4,6os
votes, and Henry K. Peter had 3,951 votes, and it
appearing that fraud and bribery have been made
use of in obtaining said votes to so large an extent
as to vitiate the election, we decline to certify to
the election of either of said cdndidateo, and refer
the subject to the Senate, which,
.uuder the Con
stitution, is made the judge of the qualifications of
its own members. Witness our hands and seals.
JOHN KuutBouu,
11. G. SKIL.,
Return Judges of the 19th Senatorial District of
Pennsylvania.
Attest—J. B. nom, Clerk.
Messrs. Emniinger nod Skiles, Return Judges for
Cumberland and Franklin countiss.-4ENTLEXin :
If Mr. Polder protests against the awarding of a
certificate to Mr. Weakley, and presents his affi
davit of other qualified voters of the district, that
the election of Mr. Weakley was secured by bri
bery and corruption, and that the same can be
proved, I believe that you would be justified in
refusing a certificate to Mr. Weakley, and that you
ehonld do an. C. E. MAGLAXGULIN.
Personally appeared before me, a clerk of the
court in and for the county of Cumberland, State
of Pennsylvania, John A. Duncan, of the borough
of Carlisle, who being duly sworn according to
law, deposeth and with that on Tuesday, the 11th
day of October '
1871, be was, after the hour of 10
o'clock, almost constantly in attendance on the
election poll of Shippensburg election district, and
whila conversing with a voter, the said voter was
approached and in his bearing, and informed that
be could have two dolfore for his vote; that a short
time after the same party returned to said voter
and remarked to him this is a mere matter of dol
lars and cents, do you want the money, or words
to that effect; and deponent firmly believes this
vote, as well as many others at that poll, were in
fluenced by bribery and corruption, and further
saith not. Juo. A. DUNCAN.
Sworn before George Sheafor, clerk, 17th Octo
ber, 1871.
Was there ever a more flimsy pretext
Mark, the tool does not even swear that
the money was paid, or to be paid, for a
vote for Weakley, uor does it appear that
the man was a qualified voter of the pre
cinct, or even a citizen of the county or
State. How shallow and lame.
We learn that the Franklin county judge
has "t..ken to the water" and signed u certi
ficate in favor of Weakley, and that the
Supreme Court has issued a mandamus to
bring the other scamp to terms. A little
honesty infused into the Democracy might
give it a short lease of life, but it seems
that it is lost to all sense of boner or de
cency.
Dar A terrible riot broke out at Los
Angebs, California, on the 25th of Octo
ber, between the dregs of California so
ciety and a number of Chinese. The mob
hung fifteen or twenty Chinamen ami mal
treated others. It is a pity that the Chi
namen did not rid the community of their
persecutors.
um, The United States authorities, in
Utah territory, are determined to vindi
cate the territorial laws. One Hawkins
has been convicted of aclultry, and iudict
meats are pending against a number of
the leading Mormons, among others Brig
ham Young.
Vir We copy an article, in another
column, from the Meadville Republican,
for the purpose of showing our readers
the estimation in which our distinguished
fellow townsman, Hon. John Scott, is
held by the Republicans of the north
western portion of our State.

1871, FREE,

Our Next Vice President,
The State Journal of the 10th ult , has
the following pertinent paragraph :
Pennsylvania has, without a doubt, earned, at
the hands of the Republican party, a noble recog
nition in the ooming national campaign fur Presi
dentand Vice President. Grant will be renomin
ated. That's a used fact, and he will be re-elected
if the party is true to itself and those who wear its
honors arc true to it. The candidate for Vice Pre
sident unquestionably belongs to Pennsylvania.—
The national Republican party owes the honor to
the Keystone State. Who shall it be? Who is
our strongest man ?
The remarks of the Journal with respect
to the consideration to which our State is
entitled from the National Convention of
'72, will meet an approval all over the
State. Our recent emphatic endorsement
of the administration and of the Republi
can policy, places Pennsylvania among the
first in the list of positively Republican
States, and makes her reliable, in the com
ing Presidential contest, for her full elec
toral vote for the election of Grant for
President, and, 13r Vice President, any
good man the Convention may associate
with him. But, as the influence of the
October election- in this State go far to
determine the result of the later election,
it is not only important that we carry the
fall elections in '72, but highly important
that we do so by the largest possible ma
jority. It is needless to urge so evident a
proposition as that we can do this most ef
fectively by having a Pennsylvanian upon
the ticket. This would greatly strengthen
us. It would add to the general party
feeling a local enthusiasm that would carry
the State in October by an overwhelming
majority, and secure, beyond doubt, a fa
vorable result in the general election. But
to do this the Convention must act with
discretion. We want no man who would
sow discord in our ranks. We want no
man who is wanting in statesmanship,
learning, integrity of character, or Repub
lican convictions. Our candidate must be
one whose name will call to his support the
men of the party in every section and of
every character—a man who is great in
himself, and whose political character is
not made up by the practices of cunning
that elevate so many men to place, but
which never carry respect with them. A
statesman, a gentleman, a scholar, a man
of reputation and political experience, fa
miliar with the laws, Republican in prin
ciple, an earnest worker, and a man with
a private character above reproach. That
is the man we want, and that man is none
other than U. S. Senator John Scott, this
Jay the foremost man of the United States
Senate, and the strongest man in our State.
Mr. Scott is a young man, in the prime
of life, being now forty seven years of age.
He has filled several public stations, aril
has always succeeded in retaining the con
fidence of those who elevated him to place.
By a close application to the study and
practice of law, he has become one of the
first lawyers in Pennsylvania. Indeed it
is doubtful if the bar of this or any other
State containe a better lawyer, in the high
est sense of the word. In 1868-9 he was
elected to the U. S. Senate, and immedi
ately took rank among the foremost mem
bers of that body. He has held a promi
nent place on various committees, and du
ring the present year has been particular
ly conspicuous as chairman of the KuKlux
Committee. The chides of that position
he seems to have made particularly a mat
ter of conscience, and, while other Con
gressmen were spending their vacation at
home or at summer resorts, Senator Scott
remained at Washington, performing the
laborious duties devolving upon him as
chairman of that Committee, with a zeal
and determination that are characteristic
of but very few men. His success has been
perfect, and it will tell on the peace of
southern society for years to come, while
it has already made Air. Scott, with the
persecuted loyal men of the South, the
most popular man of the country.
When John Scott was elected United
States Senator, he was not the candidate
of any faction. Iu the absence of any one
man of the older politicians, upon whom
all parties could unite, a new man was
found necessary, and he was selected with
great unanimity. The satisfaction with
which his election was hailed by the peo
ple has increased as they have learned more
of him from his public acts, and those who
were hostile to him at first, because of
their failure to secure the election of a
favorite, have become his warm admirers,
and would support him for any office, even
fur the Presidency itself
At home, Mr. Scott is known as a pure
Christian man, whose most intimate ac
quaintances entertain for him the highest
respect. Indeed, amid all the turmoils of
political contests through which he has
passed, his most bitter opponent has never
dared impeach his private character. He
is now a statesman of national reputation,
profound in the law, high in the esteem of
all parties, of unmistakable Republican
principles, and holding through his inher
ent greatness such a place as no other man
holds in the esteem of the Republicans of
Pennsylvania. We believe that his nom
ination for the office of Vice President
would add more strength to the Republi
can ticket in this State than any other
man that could be selected, while his na
tional reputation makes hiui available in
every other State. We earnestly hope that
the Press of our State may unite in giving
such an expression to the sentiments of
the party as will influence the National
Convention to recognize the importance of
our State.—Jkadville Daily leTublicun.
ILLNESS QF JUDGE TAYLOR.
We are pained to announce that our
distinguished townsman, Hon. George
Taylor, is now lying dangerously ill, at
Hollidaysburg, suffering from a serious at
tack of paralysis in the lower part of his
body and limbs. He was holding court in
Blair county, but on Tuesday morning of
last week, feeling somewhat indisposed, he
lOU compelled to adjourn the court for the
day, hoping that he would recover suffi
ciently to enable him to proceed with busi
ness by Wednesday morning. On Tuesday
evening, however, he was suddenly strick
en with paralysis, and for a time his life
was despaired of. Some slight hopes of
his recovery are now entertained.
—Since the above was in type Ilia Hon
or has reached home, and we are happy to
inform our readers that he is recovering
slowly from his dangerous illness. A ape.
cial train brought him to this place on
Monday evening.

THE KU KLUX-
Proclamation by the President.
WHEREAS, By an act of Congress, enti
tled "An act to enforce the provisions of
the Fourteenth Amendment to the Con
stitution of the United States, and for
other purposes," approved the 20th day
of April, 1871, power is given to the Presi
dent of the United States, when in his
judgment the public safety shall require it,
to suspend the privileges of the writ of
habeas corpus in any State or part of a
State, whenever combinations and conspi.
moles exist in such State or part of a State
for the purpose of depriving any portion
or class of the people of such State of the
rights, privileges, immunities and protec
tion named in the Constitution of the Uni
ted States, and secured by the act of Con
gress aforsaid, and whenever such combina
tions and conspiracies de so obstruct and
binder the execution of the laws of anysuch
State and of the United States, as to de
prive the people aforesaid of the rights,
privileges, immumnitics and protection
aforsaid, and do oppose and obstruct the
laws of the United states and their due
execution, and impede and obstruct the
due course of justice under the same, and
whenever such combinations shall be organ
ized and armed, and so numerous and
powerful as to be able by any violence
either to overthrow or set at defiance the
constituted authorities of said State and of
the United States within said State, and
whenever by reason of said causes the
conviction of such offenders and the pre
servation of the peace shall become in such
State or part of a State impracticable : and
Whereas, Such unlawful combinations
and conspiracies for the purposes aforesaid,
are declared by the act. of Congroas afar
said, to be rebellion against the Govern
ment of the United States; and
Whereas, By said act of Congress, it is
provided that before the President shall
suspend the privilege of the writ of habeas
corpus, he shall first have made proclama
tion commanding such insurgents to dis
perse ; and
Whereas, On the 12th day of the pres
ent month of October, the President of
the United States did issue his proclama
tion, reciting therein, among other things,
that such combinations and conspiracies
did then exist in the counties of Spartan
burg, York, Marion,Chester, Laurens,
Newberry, Fairfield , and Ches
terfield, in the State of South Carolina,'
and commanding thereby all persons con
spiring with unlawful combinations and
conspiracies to disperse and retire peace
fully to their homes within five days from
the date thereof, and to deliver to the
marshal of the United States for the dis
trict of South Carolina or to any of his
deputies, or to any military •officer of the
United States within said counties, all
arms, ammunition, uniforms, disguises and
other means or implements kept, possessed
or controlled by them for carrying out
their unlawful purposes, for which these
combinations and conspiracies are organ
ized as commanded by said proclamation,
but still persist in the unlawful combina
tions and conspiracies aforsaid.
Now, therefore I, Ulysses S. Grant, Pres
ident of the United States of America, by
virtue of the authority vested in me by
the Constitution of the United States and
the act of congress aforesaid, do hereby
declare that in my judgment the public
safety especially requires that the privi
leges of the writ of habeas corpus be sus
pended, to the end that such rebellion may
be overthrown, and do hereby suspend the
privileges of the writ of habeas corpus with
in the counties of Spartanburg, York,
Marion,
Chester, Laura., Newberry Fair
field, Lancaster and Chesterfield, in said
State of South Carolina, in respect to all
persons arrested by the Marshal of the
United States for the said district of South
Carolina, or by any of his deputies, or by
any military officers of the United States,
or by any soldier or citizen acting under
the orders of said marshal, deputy or such
military officer within any one of said
counties, charged with any violation of
the act of congress aforesaid during the
continuance of such rebellion.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set
my hand and caused the seal of the United
States to be affixed.
Done at the pity pf Washington, this 17th
day of October, in the year of our Lord
1871, and of the Independence of the
United States of America the 96th.

Wherever Poke Root grows, it has a local repu

praise of distinguished Physicians, (Drs. Coe, Lee,
King, Wilson, M. Hunt, Griffits, Copland and oth
ers,) who have tested its medical powers; it has
been neglected by the profession at large, as much
through a want of a proper appreciation of its mer
its, as a knowledge of the proper way to prepare it
fur medicinal use. Dr Oliver Crook, (a physician
who devotes his entire time to the duties of his
profession), has fully tested the active medicinal
qualities of Poke Root during the last 25 years,
and unhesitatingly pronounces it to have MORE
MERIT—for dieeases depending on a depraved con
