a 0),.. Whenever you hear a Republican
talk of voting for Greeley, you have only
to ask what position he has failed to se
cure for himself or somebody else, to learn
the cause. Every sore-head in the land
is against Grant.
/69 - There are hundreds of Democrats
in this county. who hate the very name
of Greeley, and who will never touch
him, but no doubt they contemplate
voting for Speer, who labored night and
day to secure Greeley's nomination.
wk. A Grant Democratic Campaign
Club wag organized in Chicago a few even

vote for "Grant in preference to any other
candidate for the Presidency." We hear
of some districts in this county where they
eay Greeley will not get a vote. Can't
Democratic Grant Clubs be. started ?
Treason in the Republican Party !
To the Republicans of Huntingdon
County !
It is with mortification, rather than sur
prise, that we inform you that our co
temporary, and heretofore pseudo-laborer
in the Republican party, has, for reasons
best known to its proprietor, determined
to openly desert to the enemy. The Globe of
this week hauls down the battle-worn stars
and stripes, emblazoned with Grant and
Wilson, and runs up the Confederate rag
of Greeley and Brown. The - time-worn
banner which, proudly floated from the
mast-head of that paper, during the dark
days of the Rebellion,is now trailed in the
dust and supplanted by
"A flag of bars,
A fragment, torn by traitorous bands, from Freedom's
stripes and stars?"
And what has brought about this trea
son ? Have any great changes been made
in the Republican principles ? Have any
grave errors been committed by the Ad
ministration at Washington lately ? No.
Why then this desertion ? Go ask Mr.
Speer; let him answer. He has been
"plowing with your heifer" for years. He
has now purchased her. His promise to
pay has sealed the business, and you, Re
publicans of Huntingdon county, are part
of the cattle to go with the purchase. The
Globe HAS BEEN BOUGHT FOR THE
EXPRESS PURPOSE OF GETTING
POSSESSION OF THE VOTES OF
THE REPUBLICANS WHO PATRO
NIZE, SUBSCRIBE FOR AND READ
IT !! Are you going to allow yourselves
to be bartered away in this manner ? To
be sold like cattle ? Like sheep in the
shambles? No ;we know you are not !
WE KNOW YOU WILL SPURN THE
INSULT!
Then, Republicans, organize ! Let a
Grant, Wilson and Hartranft club be
formed in every ward, borough and dis
trict in the county ! Enrol the name of
every Republican in the precinct. Our
enemies are at work. They expect that
the Globe has.demoralized you and many
of you are prepared to endorse its treach
erous and infamous course. Give them
the lie We know that the masses of the
Republican party are as true as the iron
manufactured from ores taken from your
everlasting hills ! You are satisfied that
the Government, administered by General
Grant, has brought you Peace and Pros
perity and you want no change ! Be up

County Convention assembles and makes a
ticket you will be ready to push along the
column ! Let the pernicious influence of
the Globe be counteracted at once! Do
not wait until it is to late! Organize!

THE WORK THAT HARTRANFT
HAS PERFORMED IN SIX YEARS
--DEEDS NOT WORDS.
Gen. Hartranft, like the great party
which he represents, says the State Jour
nal, rests his claims to public consideration
and confidence, not on what he says, or
other people may say for or against him,
but upon what he has done—what he has
accomplished in the public service. He is
to be judged by acts, not words.
During his first three years as Auditor
General, by the direct and sole good man
agement of John F. Hartranft, guarding
the public resources, and closely scrutini
zing all expenditures of public money, the
indebtedness of Pennsylvenia was reduced
$4,324,055.78. During his second term,
the reduction aggregated $4,771,388.52;
making a total of debt reduction accom
plished by Auditor General Hartranft, in
six years, NINE MILLION NINETY—
FIVE THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED
AND FORTY—FOUR DOLLARS AND
THIRTY CENTS. This is practical work,
the statement of which may not occupy as
much spaems some of Buekalew's speech
es discussing points in Stuart Mill's theo
ries of political economy, yet it is more
satisfactory and comprehensive to the peo
ple than any long buncombe harangue.—
The effect of the work on the securities of
Pennsyluania, is shown by the rate at
which State securities were and are now
quoted in Philadelphia. In May Ist, 1866,
when General Hartranft went into office,
our bonds were quoted at 88k; at the pre
sent time the quotation is, 3d series, 107;
Ist series, 103, and all other series at 102
@lO3. Such are the results and the ef
fects produced by Hartranft's management
of the Auditor General's office.
When Gen. Hartranit took charge of
the Auditor General's office, the debt of
Pennsylvania aggregated $37,495,455.41.
At the close of General Hartranft's six
years as Auditor General, he reduced this
debt to $28,380,011.11: having, as already
stated, in six years, without any increase
of taxation, and with the tax on real esttte
removed by a Republican Legislature paid
NINE MILLIONS, NINETY—FIVE
THOUSAND, FOUR HUNDRED AND
FORTY—FOUR DOLLARS AND THIR
TY CENTS.
Such are the results produced by the
labors of a faithful and competent official,
and such the merit on which we rest John
F. Hartranft's claim as a candidate for
Governor.
Diiir To-day we present the complete
National and State tickets to our Republi
can readers. The Republican State Cen.
tral Committee met, in Harrisburg, on last
Thursday, and Harry White having de
clined, proceeded to nominate two gentle
men for Congressmen at large, Gen. Chas.
Albright, of Carbon, and Hon. Glenni W.
Scofield, of Warren, both of whom are
well known to the State at large. They
are able and energetic men, and will make
a vigorous and thorough canvass. Gen.
Albright promised to visit Huntingdon at
no distant day. The Committee comple
ted the Electoral ticket by unanimously
selecting Wm. D. Forten, Esq., of Phila
delphia, for twenty-seventh Elector. The
reports from all parts of the State were
very gratifying. Now, organize, friends !
sol.. Gen. Charles Albright, of Carbon
county, who was nominated, by the Re
publican State Central Committee, on last
Thursday, at Harrisburg, for one of the
Congressmen at large, is one of the best
men, for the place, in the State. We have
been acquainted with him for many years
and know whereof we speak. He will be
elected by an overwhelming majority.
WILLIAM HARTLEY, ESQ.
The gentleman, whose name heads this
article, received the nomination, at the
bands of the Reading Convention, for Au
ditor General, through the persistence of
that section of country known as the "Oil
Region." Mr. Hartley is a heavy operator
and has amassed; it is said, a considerable
fortune in the oil business. Whether this
is so or not, we care not, but during the
late excitement, in that region, growing
out of an effort of the Southern Improve
ment Company to impose unreasonable
tariffs, Mr. Hartley, who is a perfect ne
gro-driver, in his way; and never better
satisfied than when bullying or brow-beat
ing somebody, pompously and blusteringly
pushed himself to the front. A man must
be pretty good at this kind of thing when
he catetake the lead in the "Oil Regions."
But Hartley was their man. He could
strut, and bluster and brow-beat until all
the small-fry were awed into silence. "His
swelling words" struck the Improvement
Company "with terror dumb," and the oil
men were ready to reward him with the
expenditure of all the gas in their wells.
It was this frothy, gasseous element that
nominated him at Reading.
Immediately after Mr. Hartley's nomin
ation the Hollidaysburg Register, edited by
DAVID Ovaa, Esq., a former citizen of
Bedford, published a severe commentary
upon his nomination, which we transfer to
our columns :
"William Hartley, of Bedford, the candidate for
Auditor General, we have been well acquainted
with all our life. We repeat, we know him well.
and must say, that bad the Democratic party raked
the State all over with a fine tooth comb, they could
not have found a meaner man. He was a rebel of
the worst description during the war, and rejoiced
over every rebel success, and disparaged and belit
tled every Union victory. He was the chief fo
mentor of strife in the Methodist Church, in that
place, and finally succeeded in leading a portion
of its members away from that honored branch of
christians ' for no other reason than that the Church
was loyal to the Union cause, and its ministers and
members prayed for the success of the Union ar
mies and the heads of the government. Although
his father left him a fortune, and he has improved
it in business and speculation in oil wells until he
is reputed to be worth several hundred thousand
dollars, yet we venture the assertion, and defy suc
cessful contradiction, that he never entered into a
contract with a mechanic for a job of work, that ho
did not dispute the contract, and refuse to lay the
bill, unless the workman would take lees money
than he agreed to pay him. He cannot keep a
hired hand, or a tenant, any length of time on
account of his meanness, and because he tries to
cheat them out of their wages. If the Democratic
party nominated him because of his wealth, ex
pecting him to give of his funds to carry on the
campaign, they will be mistaken, for wealthy as
he is, he worships money as much as any good
christian does his God, and a nickle penny appears
as big in his eyes as a cart wheel. In Bedford
county ho is properly appreciated by the laboring
men, who will remember his meanness when they
come to the election. Against hi-n we have Gen
eral Harrison Allen, a brave soldier. Patriotic and
honest people should not deliberate long between
them."
This severe, but truthful criticism, a
Colonel Sam Young, who edits the East
Brady Independent, essays to answer, thus :
"Every utterance against Mr. Hartley is false
from beginning to end, and though we are no par
tisan of his, yet we are free to do an act of justice
to a worthy gentleman and save from defamation
and abuse as fair a name as is found in our com
monwealth. We deny that he was a rebel during
the war ; we deny that through his instrumental
ity a strife was fomented in a Methodist church ;
we allege that he pays all bills promptly when
they are correct, but he will refuse when they are
erroneous. He has paid out thousands of dollars
in developing our 01l fields, yet he never accepted
one dollar dishonestly, nor refused to pay men
wages which he contracted. Yet all these charges
are brought to bear against him, end, without
contradiction, may find believers. We find that
very respectable paper the Kittanning Free Press
copying the vile slander from the Hollidaysburg
Register, reiterating the shameless lies without
comment, thus attempting to establish their
truth."
We would like to know where this mag_
nanimous creature, who is so anxious to do
an "act of justice to a worthy gentleman,"
received his information ? The writer of
this article was the immediate neighbor of
Mr. Hartley for ten years, commencing
with the year 1862, and if Mr. Hartley
now denies his sympathy with the late re
hellion, and that he rejoiced at the success
of the rebel army until he almost rubbed
bunions upon his hands, it is since he has
become a candidate for Auditor General !
If he denies that he withdrew from the
Methodist Episcopal Church and endeav
ored to establish a Secesh church, with one
of the most violent Secessionjsts who then
walked on Northern soil at its head, it is
since he has become a candidate for Audi
tor General ! We affirm these facts be
cause we know them to be facts.
At home, in Bedford, he belongs to
the "dead wood." He is of no earthly
use. On the other hand he is a monopo
list of the first water, tariffing every mouth
ful of bread eaten by the poor that sur
round him. His neighbors, among whom
he has lived all his life, are the best able
to judge of his character, and no Sam
Youngs need tell them that charges are
lies which are notorious truths known to
every man, woman and child within twzn
ty miles of Bedford.

no_ The Bloomsburg Republican, pub
lished in Buckalew's own town, asserts as
a fact which no one there will attempt to
deny, that during the war, while an
exciting election was going on, Mr.
Buckalew assisted in opening the jail of
Columbia county and voting the prisoners
confined there in the interest of the
Democratic party, and against the gov
ernment. Mr. Buckalew, the Democratic
candidate for Sheriff, and the Commision
ers' Clerk, says that paper, "robbed the
county jail of some of its prisoners and took
them to Buck Horn, where they voted the
ticket of rebellion. The sheriff and the
commissioners' clerk were arrested and
taken to Harrisburg by the United States
Marshall, but Mr. Buckalew, by using
his strategy, escaped. The deepest indig
nation was manifested by the citizens on
account of this unheard of procedure. It
is said that the Southern Confederacy rob
bed the cradle and the tomb to destroy the'
Republic, and it is true that Buckalew rob
bed our county jail to help them. While
this pleasing incident was transpiring,
Hartranft was leaving his all to finish the
noble work of our fathers, and helping to
savo, even though it cost the sacrifice of
his own life, the best government the world
has ever seen. These facts are so well es
tablished that numerous affidavits can be
furnished to substantiate them.• This is
the mild man that some forgetful Repub
licans are expected to vote for in opposi
tion to a man that never was false to a
trust and never a traitor to his country."
gia, The powerful soldier element, in
this State, is said to be almost unanimously
for Hartranft and the whole Republican
ticket. Why shouldn't it be when Buck
alew, Hartley and Thompson did all they
could against the defenders of the Union F
THE "CORPORATE" CANDIDATE.
The immaculate convention of the DO
mocracy at Reading, says the Harrisburg
Telegraph, having given the voters a can
didate who is "an honest man"—albeit it
is a little rough he can find nobody but
himself to say so—it may be profitable
to "go through" thse history of his nom
ination.
The Miners' Journal of Pottsville has
already made a sad hole in his reputation
for honesty, and utterly demolished his
pretensions to the =actor of frugality in
the expenditure of the people's money. Let
it be our duty to stir up the little Jesuit
of Bloomsburg concerning the manner of
his nomination.
Cam went into the convention with far
the greatest strength of any aspirant for
the empty honor of a nomination. He
steadily gained until he only required nine
votes to secure the prize he has so long
sought, "and mourned because he found it
not." At that thrilling moment a Democrat
of questionable credit, but of conspicuous
and painful renown, told Cass in a quiet
and insinating way for which he is celebra
ted that an expenditure of a sum named—
and not a very heavy sum either—would
secure his success. Cass at once refused
to disburse. In five minutes a marked
activity was observed in the convention.
The emissaries of the Reading railroad were
working like beavers. Clash was paid for
votes for Buckalew, and the result showed
the wisdom of the investment. The little
rebel sympathizer of Fishing Creek rapidly
rove from the second to the first place cn
the balloting. Ina few moments the Cass
forces were demoralized, and in a half hour
after the Reading railroad—THAT TENDER
GUARDIAN OF THE RIGHTS OF THE MINERS
began buying delegates for Buckalew, their
counsel and creature, he was the "REFORM"
candidate of the spotless Democracy !
And now let us whisper in the ears of
the miners of the anthracite coal region
that it is the intention of the President of
the Reading railroad company to buy up
the coal land and sternly control the labor
of that important and populous part of
Pennsylvania. Under the authority of the
meanest law ever passed by the Legislature
of our State, that giant corporation
can absorb all the coal lands in that part of
the State. Last year, with this intention,
the Reading railroad company made a new
mortgage for TWENTY-FIVE MILLIONS OF
DOLLARS for the openly avowed purpose of
buying the coal lands. To protect their
corporation in the perpetration of THIS
MONSTROUS CONSPIRACY AGAINST LABOR,
the officers see the necessity of having a
creature of the corporation in the Guber
natorial chair ofour State, and they have
found their tool in Charles R. Bllckalew !
A few very rich men in Philadelphia
and New York have formed a "pool" of
60,000 shares of Reading stock, and they
are holding this $6,000,000 for speculative
purposes. The former President, Mr.
Smith, refused to perform the work this
crowd demanded of him, and resigned.
John Tucker was next applied to and he
refused. Gowen was approached and agreed
to carry out the scheme.
This scheme is that the road shall pay a
dividend of ten per cent for ten years. If
the road earns it, all right. If not, then
the road is to be "skinned"—that is, to be
allowed to run down in its trucks and gen
eral condition. Gowen was required to
guarantee this dividend both as to time
and rate, and for this he gets a salary of
$30,000 a year.
The frequent and prolonged strikes of
lastyear caused the President and the hold
ers of the "pool" alarm. And to prevent
any further trouble, BY ENSLAVING THE
MINERS, the lands are to be bought np, small
operators crushed out, and a SERFDOM IN
STITUTED IN THE ANTIIRACITE REGION !
And all that a grasping band of rich and
greedy speculators may fatten on the toil
of the men who enrich our State by their
hard work in the mines.
Verily it will be necessary to - own the
Governor when this outrage is pressed.
And they have nominated Buckalew to aid
them IN ENSLAVING THE MINERS. Shall
he have a chance to do this?

HIS ACCOUNT STATED
Mr. Buckslew has been fortunate in ac
quiring for himself a reputation as an
honest and disinterested Democrat. His
record, says an exchange, which is being
looked up, makes sad work of this late in
flated Democratic politician. Hno other
record than the investigation of the Gray-
McClure case could be reached, it alone
would be sufficient to remove the wool
from the eyes over which it has been
pulled.
His friends not only inflate bin), but he
lends a help himself in his speeches when
he declares that he is not in "public life
fur the purpose of making profit of him
self." How adroitly he speaks to impress
the public with the belief that he desires
no office and possesses no itching palm.
The following offices that be has held,
and the money he received from each,
tells bow nearly his act and his words
correspond. An exchange states his ac
count thus :
C. it. Burkafew to United States Dr.
To 0 years salary as U, S. Senator t 30,000
Outfit as Minister to Ecuador 7,000

re,,. Again we urge you to send the
best men you have, in your respective dis
tricts, to the County Convention. Men
who can be relied on in all emergencies.
See that every Republican attends the
delegate elections ! We want a good ticket
nominated ! One that will give entire
satisfaction. We will support the ticket,
let the nominees be who they may, be
cause we believe that the Republican par
ty should not be sacrificed owing to a bad
man, here and there, getting a nomination;
but the delegate elections is the place to
put a veto on all bad men, and all that is
necessary is for pod, honest people to at
tend and see that the proper delegates are
elected.
Is_ We are pleases" .to see that the
senior editor, of the Hollidaysburg Register,
does not notice the persoaal assaults made
upon him, which, we are lead to believe,
are instigated by the pompous Hartley.—
An editor does not appreciate his mission
when he prostitutes his columns to person,.
al assaults upon a rival editor, who has
assailed the weak points of some one that
is a candidate before the public. It only
goes to show the weakness of the defence.
An attorney's laconic brief read thus :
'Abuse the plaintiff's counsel." There
was nothing in the case, and this was the
only resort to keep up appearances. But
this idea of assaulting an editor, who is
not before the public, but who is simply
doing his duty, under the Constitution, is
a crime and a crying shame which should
be discountenanced by every lover of the
purity of the press in the country.
10,,..This is the way H. B. Swoope, Esq . .,
paid his respects to ex-Senator Lowry, in
his speech at Erie, on Tuesday evening, of
last week :
wen, he's been in office about ten years, and
now ho says hoe in favor of the one term princi
ple. A pretty advocate of the one term principle,
he is. And he fought corruption single-handed
and alone at Harrisburg. When he went into
office he bought on credit large amounts of real
estate, on which he had payments and taxes to
raise, and got $BOO a year. When he came out
nine years afterwards his real estate was all his
own, all paid for, no back taxes to bother, and ho
had $lOO,OOO in clear cash besides. Do you think
I charge him with being corrupt ? Not a bit of it.
I hold him as an example of uncommon thrift and
industry. Imitate his virtuous example and you'll
all get rich—out of $BOO a year. Ile went to Cin
cinnati to help nominate a ticket because he
wanted reform. Well, any sort of reform will do
for him, for he can't he made worse."
pm. The Bloomsburg Republican says :
We have often noticed that when a man
prefaces all his transactions in business by
the .declaration of his honesty that he
means to cheat you. If this experience
be applied to Mr. Buckalaw look out for a
big cheat. In both his speeches he has
virtually declared that he is the legitimate
outgrowth of all honesty in all preceding
ages. Twice he has repeated this compli
ment to himself and we presume, upon the
old principle, he will continue until he be
lieves it himself. We have known him for
years, and never suspected that he was
afflicted this way.
16,.. The Bradford Reporter remarks :
Hartranft has been in office six years, and
that, say the soreheads and Democrats, is
long enough for any soldier. Buckalew
has been in office nearly, if not quite, a
quarter of a century, and that is not
enough for a man who sat in the Senate
and refused to aid his country or our sol
diers by his voice or vote during the re
bellion. In other words, patriotism should
not be rewarded so well as semi -treason,
for those who were not with us were against
us, and Charles R. Buckalew was one of
these.
DEe,..The men who lead the Greeley
column and support the Baltimore nomi
nation, are old Democrats, defiant rebels
and the K. K. K. of the south, such men
as Seymour, the Woods, the Blairs, Rob
ert Toombs, Wade Hampton, and all others
of that stripe, and it cannot be expected
that the accession of a few men like Gree
ley, Bowles and Lewis will be able to
change it and make it any more worthy of
Republican support than it was in tho
contests of 1864 and 1868.
nel, We hope that our County Conven
tion will see the necessity of selecting only
one member of the County Committee
from each election precinct. It is entirely
too unwieldy at present. The Chairman
should also be authorized to appoint a Vig
ilance Committee, for each district, to act
in conjunction with the member of the
County Committee. We want a thorough
organization. One that will properly dis
cipline the party.
16r We do not believe there are a score
of Liberal Republicans in this county, and
we assure those chronic office-seekers who
are, that their support of Greeley now
places them outside of the Republican
party, and we mean to see that, so far as
the Republican party is concerned, that
their cake will all be dough in the future.
They will have a good time in the Demo
cratic party.
ser Buckalew's noble utterances during
the war, says the Allentown Chronicle,
were mostly of the kind to which he gave
vent at Bloomsburg, Columbia county,
when he said : "Fellow citizens, when I
landed in New York froni South America,
I found that Abe Lincoln, the rail splitter
of Illinois, was President, and W. H. Sew
ard his Secretary, I was humiliated."
gm. A vote was taken on the Wail train
east, on Saturday last, by a gentleman from
Missouri, which resulted in 51 for Grant
to 16 for Greeley. The gentleman said
that he had taken a vote on every train he
had been in on the route, and with a sin
gle exception in Missouri, there were two
to one in favor of Grant. Straws show
which way the wind blows.
NA — Horace Greeley has written his
second letter of acceptance. This time
the Democrats received his thanks. He
has gone over square. He accepts the
Democrats and the Democrats have ac
cepted him. They are identical. The
Republican who can vote for Greeley could
vote for Jeff. Davis if he had received the
Democratic nomination.
Da, Wendell Phillips puts forth the
following warning to colored men against
voting for the Baltimore nominees:
"No negro can vote for Greeley who values his life or
property. or cares for hie race. If, by a frown of Provi
dence, he is elected, I shall advise every Southern loyalist
to load the revolvers that Grant's arrest of North Caro
lina Ku-klux has allowed to be laid aside. If he is elected,
lot the negroes live in squads of fifty, whom no coward
will dare shoot down, and show no property after sunset.
Lonely men will be shot, and no black man will own a
mule forty-eight hours if any rebel knows the fact."
We' A great many honest Democrats,
who are opposed to the Reading Railroad
candidate for Governor, having experien
ced the manner in which it deals with la
bor, will vote for Hartranft, and if not for
Hartranft, for Hon. Wm. P. Schell, the
Labor Reform candidate.
rm. Republicans, get up clubs for the
JOURNAL at every post office in the coun
ty. Only 60 cents per copy until the
close of the campaign. It is the only Re
publican paper in the county, and will
stand up for the nominees of the Party,
be they who they may.
MirWe call attention to the advertise
ment of the N. Y. Times in another column,
Sag - Had not our Conyention better au
thorize the Lent year's Convention to be
held six weeks earlier? We want time
for the soreheads to heal up and go to
work; as it is now they have not time to
heal up, and consequently their influence
is lost.

This journal is now thoroughly identified with the great
est political necessity of the hour—uncompromising war-
fare against all forms of corruption, whether in national
or local government For years past the TIMES has been
exposing the demoralizing schemes of self-interested poll
' Odom., and its recent warfare upon the Tammany Demo
crats has been received with universal approval. It has
adhered to the pledge given in its original prospectua
more than twenty year. ago, that the public should be
truly represented, and their interests faithfully guarded
through its columns. Its record has been pure and honor
able, and the highest aim of its proprietors is to render it
more and more worthy of its pest history, and of the confi
dence which the public repose in it. Two out of three of
the original proprietors still direct its policy, end guide it
on all public questions. They purpose that the TIMES
shall continue to keep clear of all narrow and unworthy
influences and cliques, and aim to represent the great body
of the public, as distinguished from personal factions. It
occupies a perfectly independent position, and is free to
speak the truth on all subjects, and about all men. Its
greatly increased circulation throughout the county adda
to its power and influence. It will continue to ben faith
ful exponent of Republican principles, recognizing the
claim. of American industry in adjusting *the sources of
revenue; and it will advocate with untiring energy every
cause which tends to further the welfare of the people.
A full summary of newa and many general articles of
great interest, are published in the Semi-Weekly editions;
and in the Weekly Edition there is an unabridged report
of the proceedings at the Farmer's Club, an excellent sum
