THE JOURNAL FOR 1872!
A Rare Chance to Secure the Leading
Literature of the Day!
CHEAPNESS COMBINED WITH SUBSTIPMALITY !
Every head of a family, in the country, should
subscribe and pay for his county paper. He
that attempts to raise a family without giving
it the advantage of a newspaper, in this en
lightened and christian age, is criminally neg
ligent.. We think that every man, without
exception, raising a family, should spend from
FIVE dollars to TWENTY-FIVE dollars a year,
according to his means, for this kind of edu
cation, and we hope to live to see the day
when there will not be an exception to this
rule in Huntingdon county.
We want every body in the county to take
the JOURNAL, we don't care what party you
belong to—Republican, Democrat or Temper
ance man. If you are a Republican, we are
with you heart and soul; if a Democrat, you
ought to know what we have to say about
you, so that you can act and vote intelligently,
and if you are a temperance man, we assure
you that no one will administer severer blows
upon the whiskey business than the JOURNAL
Will, and if the whiskey men don't like it, why
let them do as they do with whiskey that is
distasteful, take the less of it. We believe
newspapers, like preachers and school teach
ers, should be on the side of morality and good
order. But the JOURNAL will uphold only that
which we, in our humble judgment, think to
be right, regardless of consequences.
The development of the county, in every re
spect, will be its constant and undeviating aim,
and in this respect it will be to every man's
interest to subscribe for it. We want to build
up Manufactures, Mechanics and the Arts on
every hand, and by subscribing for the JOUR
NAL you assist and encourage us in our design.
The next year will be an eventful one; a
President, Vice President, Governor aed Con
gress arc to be elected and a Constitutional Con
vention will be selected to remodel the Con
stitution of the State. We have outgrown the
old one, and if you want to keep posted you
must have the papers. Take the JOURNAL first,
and if you won't take it, in the name of intel
ligence, take some other one, but don't be
without the news.
For the purpose of distributing good Litera
ture, in connection with the Joutssx,, which
we think good enough of itself, we hare ar
ranged to furnish the following-named leading

A RARE CHANCE.
If any young lady or gentleman will
secure us six new each subscribers, to the
JOURNAL, and this can be done in any
neighborhood in a few hours, we will agree
to make the person doing so a present of .
one year's subscription to any one of the
FOUR DOLLAR Magazines. Here is a chance
seldom offered. The Atlantic, or Harper,
or Scribner, or Galaxy, or any other of
the leading FOUR dollar publications, for
one year, for a few minutes labor ! This
is a chance for school teachers.
THE CONSTITUTIONAL CONVEN-
TION
A Constitutional Convention, for the
revision of the Constitution of the State,
having been determined upon, by a large
majority of the voters of Pennsylvania,
the Legislature, at its approaching session,
in January, will be called upon to make
provision for the cicction of Delegates, and
to fix the time for the meeting thereof.—
These duties will require considerable nice
discrimination. It would be well, then,
for onr legislators to weigh the subject,
thoroughly, before acting.
The approaching season is likely to be
one of more than usual political excite
mmt. A President, Vice President, Gov
ernor and a Congress are to be elected, and
while there is very little show for our
Democratic friends, at this ame, they may
resort to some political diplomacy that may
make it uncomfortably warm for us. We
have an idea of something of the kind.—
Under such circumstances, we think, and
in this opinion we are not alone, that it
would be well to postpone the Convention
until after the Presidential campaign. In
fact the Presidential election would be the
best time for the holding of the election
for Delegates. A larger vote will be poll
ed then than at any other time, and better
men will be selected. We are decidedly
in favor of this suggestion.
The next question to be settled, is, the
number of Delegates to be elected. We
would suggest that the Convention should
not consist of less than two hundred and
thirty-three delegates, and they might be
selected by taking two from each Represen
tative district and one from each Senatori
al. This would be the simplest method,
and would make the Convention of suffi
cient numbers. We hope that wise coun
sels will prevail, and that the best and
most experienced men in the State will be
selected.
Hoe. George Tiylor died this
(Tuesday) morning between nine and ten
o'clock. We stop the press to make this
announcement.

Grand Victory all Along the Line!
NEW YORK TO THE FRONT !
EDITOR
DEMOCRACY "GONE WHERE THE
WOODBINE TIWNETH !"
Ten States voted on the Pith inst., and
the result has been one of the most deci
sive victories ever gained by the Republi
can party, and henceforth the question of
Grant's re-election is settled. New York
has gone Republican by about 18,000 ma
jority, electing 24 out of the 32 Senators,
and a majority of the Assembly, (besides
the State officials under the Governor),
which secures a United States Senator.—
New Jersey, owing to disaffection in sev
eral counties, has elected Parker (Dem.,)
for Governor by a majority a little in ex
cess of 5,000. Both branches of the legis
lature are Republican, thus securing a
Republican United States Senator. Wis
consin elects the whole Republican ticket
by increased majorities. Illinois also gives
an increased Republican majority. Mas
sachusetts, the "Old Bay State," ever
faithful, elects Washburn, Republican, by
a heavy majority. Minnesota, Arkansas
and Mississippi, have also gone Republican
by fair majorities. Virginia and Mary
land, wedded to their "idols," have gone
Democratic, although in the latter State
our Republican friends have done nobly,
making heavy inroads upon the Democracy,
carrying a number of the counties, and
electing a respectable delegation to the
Legislature. The "New Departure" seems
to have done- the work most effectually,
and we thank our Democratic friends for
its adoption.
STEEL RAILS
The manufacture of steel rails, or steel
faced rails, in the United States is of very
recent origin. The iron rail is fast going
out of use. Our first steel rails were
brought from England, and that country
having the monopoly of our markets we
were compelled to pay, in 1862, the exor
bitant price of $2OO per ton for steel rails.
Parties in this country. soon afterwards,
commenced to manufacture steel rails un
der the Bessemer patents, for which a roy
alty was paid to the English patentee. We
have now nine steel rail manufactories iu
the United States, and the price of the
American product, in every respect equal
to English rails, has been brought down
to $lO4l per ' ton for large contracts, and
$llO to $ll5 for small lots. This is done
under a protective tariff of one cent per
pound. Revenue Reformers and Free
Traders contend that the protective tariff
enhances prices. But here we have a re
duction from $2OO down to $lOO, as the
direct result of protection. Without a duty
to protect the new enterprise, capitalists
would not have attempted the manufacture
of steel rails in the United States. Under
protection they have succeeded, not only in
establishing steel rail works, but also in
reducing the cost of imported steel rails
one hundred per cent. Our manufacturers
now produce nearly 100,000 tons of rails
p.r culposo, or will do no . during, the nre,
sent year. They now control the Ameri
can markets. In consequence of this,
English manufacturers are compelled to
pay the duties imposed an rails sent to this
country, and sell at the market prices estab
lished by one manufacturers, So much for
judicious protection.
The steel rail works now in operation in
the United States are distributed over the
country as follows : One each at Harris
burg, Bethlehem and Johnstown, Pa ; two
in Chicago, (not injured by the great fire);
and one each at Detroit, Mich.; Troy, N.
Y.; Cleveland, Ohio ; and Joliet, 111. It
is estimated - that the product of these
works in 1872, if the protective tariff is
continued, will amount to about 150,000
tons.
12F1
Even at the great reduction in the price
of steel rails England continues to manu
facture more steel rails for the United
States than the entire consumption of Great
Britain. Her export to this country is
larger than her export to all the world
besides. During the year ending June 30,
1870, England sent us rails to the value
of over nine million dollars, and during
the fiscal year ending June 30, 1871, to
the value of over seventeen million dollars.
Here is an active and a healthy competi
tion, the effects of which will be to bring
the price of steel rails down to $75 per
ton, and ultimately to the former price of
iron rails. This is the result of protection
to home industries.
COL. THOS. A. SCOTT FOR PRE-
SIDENT.
The Pittsburgh Post is wild in its en
thusiasm for the nomination of Col. Thos.
A. Scott, by the Democratic party, for the
Presidency. It can scarcely contain itself
Does it know that Col. Scott would be the
easiest beaten of any man named ? If it
does not, it ought to know it. Mr. Scott
has the reputation of being the head and
shoulders of the Pennsylvania Railroad.—
He is responsible for the great monopoly
which reaches the pockets of almost every
business man from Now York to Louisiana
and California. In him and over him the
people could strike the monopoly. The
canvass would present the singular specta
cle of the people against the monopoly, and
in such a contest there could be no ques
tion in regard to the result. The very
idea of the monopoly getting possession of
the Government of the United States,
would raise such a storm of indignation as
would bury, both it and its candidate, so far
beneath a mountain of public disapproba
tion that the monopoly, at least,would never
be able to recover from the shock.
We see the dilemm a. of the Democracy,
and appreciate their efforts to secure an
available candidate, and while we ad-aire
the master spirit of the Pennsylvania Rail
road, and like to see true merit rewarded,
yet we are satisfied that were the person,
who has the credit of being the head of
that monopoly, to run for the first place in
the gift of the American people, it would
result in a combination of the masses and ,
other railroad interests that would bring
about such a defeat as was never before
experienced in this country,

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER,
WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 6, 1871
The improvements in the Capitol, made
during the summer and autumn, are near_
ly completed. The main passages between
the Hall of the House of Representatives
and the Senate Chamber, have been widen
ed, so that three or four persons can now
walk abreast through all the main passage
ways. The painters and white-washers are
renovating from basement to dome; and
upholsterers and cabinet-makers are laying
carpets and fitting the desks to their pla
ces in the Senate Chamber and Hall of the
House.
A number of Senators and Members of
the House have already arrived in the
city, and are looking up winter quarters.
The persistent and energetic labors of
Senator Scott, in his Ku Klux investiga
tions and recommendations, are already
producing fruit. The President's procla
mations, bearing upon this question, are
strictly in accordance with Senator Scott's
views and in compliance with his sugges
tions. Already the effects have been of a
most salutary nature. In South Carolina
especially, the Ku Klux are coming in and
surrendering by the hundred, terror-strict
en, and sueing for mercy. Many are very
unwisely leaving the country. The Chair
man of the Ku Klux Committee has been
in the city and last week was in consulta
tion with the Chief Magistrate and his
Cabinet. There is a determination, inspi
red largely through the zeal of the Chair
man of the Committee, to follow up this
thing until honest men shall no longer live
in fear of annoyance from this source in
any portion of the Southern country.
The stories of the Democracy that Mr.
Bontwell's 5 per cent. loan has proved a
failure in Europe is without a word of
truth. The bonds are sent over in lots
every two weeks, or as fast as they can be
prepared. Judge Richardeon, Assistant
Secretary of the U. S. Treasury, writes
from London, Oct. 21, that the members
of the Syndicate are doing everything in
exact .accordance with their agreement,
and early in December the transaetion will
be brought to a close in strict accordance
with the original negotiation, "without dis
turbing the money market or the regular
business of any banking house in the least."
Delegate Hooper, of Utah, has arrived
in Washington; but says he is not official
ly empowered by Brigham Young or the
Church to act in the matter of Polygamy.
lie has not fully expressed his own views
in the matter, evidently aware of the deli
cacy of his position and unwilling to com
mit himself. He will probably give his
views to the Executive in a few days. The
question will be brought up in Congress
at an early day. If persecution and pro
secution is to be the poiley,.the Mormons
will probably move away from the country,
destroying their city as they pass out. The
question is beset with difficulties. Mr.
Hooper is of opinion that the Church will
not yield the prudes of polygamy " f ar
as to separate from their "wives" ; bgt
thinks that many of its members will be
willing to yield so far as to abandon the
practice in the future. On the whole
(inn. Paa will rolighl onnai or it h - to
seek a reconciliation, by mild measures;
and pass a law that will prevent an exten
sion of the evil, and cause the "social er
ror" to die out. 11,
The Movement to Nominate Hon. John
Scott for Vice President.
The following is taken front "Invisible's"
last letter to the Blair County Radicall
The movement to bring out Senator
Scott for the Vice Presidency, is in dead
earnest, and has already become quite for
midable. Senator Scott, since he maw ed
the United States Senate, has won the
good opinion of the people more than any
man of his day. His acknowledged ability,
unquestioned integrity and conscientious
discharge of public duty, have placed him
in the front rank of our wisest and best
statesmen, and given him a plaPe in the af
fections of the masses seldom attained short
of a life-time of faithful publieservice, and
beside, he is what the politicians call
"available." His earnest, devoted, effec
tive labor—amounting literally to a sacri
fice—in behalf of the hunted-down loyal
ists in the South, has made him the favorite
of the klonthren Unioniste, anci his freedom
from connection with either the Cameron,
Curtin or Geary wings in our own State
and esteem in which he is held by each.
point to him as the strongest candidate
Pennsylvania can possibly present. It is
high time that Pennsylvania should put in a
claim for recognition upon the National
ticket, and with Senator Scott to offer, I
feel certain we will have little difficulty in
making our claim good.

The Locomotive Engineers
There are now among us the representa
tives of one of the most powerful organiza
tions on the continent. The Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers is an organization
which never fails to command respect and
admiration wherever the iron horse has
penetrated, and we have good reason to be
proud that our city is now the scene of its
annual session. This Brotherhood was
not created to farther any political, reli
gious or sectarian views; it recognizes no
caste, it seeks no selfish ends, it strives for
no unjust impose, it is banded against no
one class, but its pole object—and a right
noble one it is —is the furtherance of the
interests 0f locomotive engineers, the ele
vation of their standing es mechanics and
men, and the protection of them and their
families in case of sickness or death, Post
nosing so rightece a charter, we cannot
wonder that this Brothnrhood bas thriven
with wonderful rapidity, and that it now
embraces in its ranks no less than 0000
locomotive engineers. A glance at the list
of delegates at once ahpws the cosmopolitan
character of this great and powerful insti
tution. One hundred and thirty six di
visions of the Brotherhood are spread over
the face of the North Aieerican continent;
five of these are located in the Dominion
and the remainder rattered between 11aige
and the Pacific, the St. Lawrence and the
Gulf of Mexico The good work done by
the Brotherhood is known only to those
connected with it. The out side world has
little opportunity of comprehending the
substantial comfort extended to the widows
and orphans of those who have fallen in
the discharge of a perilous duty or died
quietly in the ordinary course of humanity.
We can peruse the tabular statements
presented at the annual session and coin.
pute the commercial value of the charities;
but only to the engineers themselves, and
in the volume of the Recording Angel, is
known the inestimable blessings of Phe
humane and generous principles on which
this gigantic body of mechanics have taken
their stand. The reports published else
where convey some idea of the magnitude
of the work done. On the Ist inst. nearly
$15,000 stood at the credit of the Widows'
and orphans' Fund ready to be applied to
the first case of necessity, and a grand total
of $25,570 attested the prudent manage
ment and the wide interest taken in the
affairs of the Society. Attached to the
Brotherhood is the Locomotive Engineers
Mutual Life Insurance Association, organ
ized expressly for the benefit of the fami
lies of deceased and disabled members.
The principle of the Life Association is
simply the payment of one dollar by every
member of the Brotherhood on the death
of a fellow. On the Ist of July last the
Life Association had been in existence
three and-a-half years, and during that
period 86 deaths, had occurred, and'BB as
sessments had been made. Fifty of these
deaths resulted from diseases seven from
boiler explosions, four from breaking
through of bridges, and eighteen from
other accidents, showing that no less. than
76 per cent. of the deaths were brought
about by violent means. From these 88 as
sessments $196.358 flowed into the common
fund and were distributed among sufferers.
While exercising faithfully this vaatpower
for good, the Brotherhood has dope nothing
by Word or deed to forfeit the good opinion
of the ouLide public. When they had
grievances to redress, the engineers went to
work soberly and respectfully, they made
no threats, resorted to nothing that could
be construed into arrogance or intolerance,
and by so doing they have invariably car
ried their point and increased the respect
according to their Brotherhood by all class
es of society. Their motto "Do unto oth
ers as we would that others should do unto
us, and so fulfil the law," has been rigor
ously adhered to, and the result is apparent
to-day in the numerous and inteligent
gathering now lh session in the Music Hall,
and in the kindly feeling manifested to the
Broherhood through mt the continent.--

THE KLU KLUX ON THE RETREAT
Dispatch from Washington, under
date of November 6th says :
Senator Scott has received a letter, dated
Yorkville, South Carolina, October 27,,
from a prominent gentlemen now tempo
rarily iu that vicinity, in which it is stated
that Avery, Tomlinson and Britton, who
it was proved were members of the Kukluk
organization, together with twenty or thir
ty other men, have ignominiously fled,
even before a finger was raised and the
the warning proclamation issued.
The evidence is orppwhelming, and up
to this period is a complete confirmation
of the facts as to parties concerned in a
large number of whippings and in the hang
ing of Williams, in which Bratton was the
leader and Avery accessory before the fact ;
the murder of Anderem Brown, in which
Tomlinson was concerned; the murder of
Lett and the murder of Roundtree ; and
astonishing as it may seem, even the details
and facts of five murders which the writer,
with all his knowledge of the outrages by
mitted. "We have'in jail," he says,"some
thirty men who have been concerned in
the various murders, most of them having
wade a clean breist of all they know about
it, and showed that they were ()outwitted
by orckr of the Grand Chief, Avery.
"The better people now arc beginning
to say they are profoundly grateful for
having been freed from the horrible tyran
ny to which the atrocious conspiracy had
subjected them. your action and that of
the President is completely vindicated ky
the facts now shown to be overwhelmingly
complete in proof,"

SYRUP OF POKE ROOT.
Wherever Poke Ruot grows, it has a local repu
tation as a Blood Purifier, and for the cure of Rheu
matism. With all this local reputation, and the
praise of distinguished Physicians, (Drs. Coe. Lee,
King, Wilson, M. Hunt, Griffits, Copland anu 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
for 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
nnurr—for diseases depending on a depraved con
dition of the blood,—than any and all other arti
cles named in the Materia Medics. Under his in
structions our Chemists have combined the active
medicinal qualities of Poke Root with the best
Tonic Preparation of Iron. and we offer this pre
paration to the public under the above name.
