The Huntingdon Journal, I. R. DURBORROW HUNTINGDON, PENN'A. • Wednesday Morning, April 16,;1873. Circulation LARGER than any other Paper in the Juniata Valley. DR. DUNWIDDIE'S DENIAL, We received the following card, from Dr. Dunwiddie, on Monday of last week, when our paper was almost ready for press : _ _ . We, the undersigned, citizens of Warriors mark township, who were present at the meet ing 11 , 1 d in August last, for the election of delegates to the County Convention, in justice t• Dr. Dunwiddie, do certify that the delegates from this township, were not instructed for any candidate, and that the statement in the HUNTINGDON JOURNAL, of March 12th, is false. Wm. Johnston, sr., J. W. Funk, C. D. Krider, IL H. Miller, C. L. Addleman, S. M. Hannah, W. Burket. J. H. Waite, Henry 11. Hratten. W. Hutchison, S. S. Gray: Our first impulse was that we had made no allusion to instructions in the article complained of, and we felt so confident of this that we penned the two items, which appeared in our last issue, denying that there was any reference to instructions, without referring to the files; subsequently, upon examination, we discovered our er ror, and we now make the correction with pleasure. and take back any, unjust reflec tions we then made, based upon the false impression. Memory is at best treacher ous, and we should have known better than to have trusted it—but, we felt confi dent. We have no desire to misrepresent Dr. Dunwiddie or anybody else—only to hold such people to a strict political accounta bility. We believe that five-sixths of the Republicans of Warriorsmark were in fa vor of the nomination of Hon. S. S. Blair, of Hollidaysburg, for Congress, and, if they would have thought it necessary, would have thus instructed, but Dr. Dun widdie, under the instructions of the League Head Centre, no doubt, euchred them out of instructions, and violated the confidence they reposed in him. We re member one prominent Republican, in his great humiliation over the action of this honorable (?) Leaguer, declaring that War riorsmark had been disgraced ; while an other, believing that the wishes of the Re publicans would be carried out, congratu lated Mr. Blair on the result in Warriors mark, and assured him that the delegates were for him—and this was one by one who knew the feelings of the people. In the future the honest Republicans 'will take care that neither Dunwiddie nor any other Leaguer shall misrepresent them P. B.—Just before ping to press, we received positive information that Dr. Dunwiddie and his colleague were instruct ed for Hon. S. S. Blair. We have the names of half a dozen of the best men in Warriorsmark township, who will be qual ified to the fret. Where are you now, Doctor ? THE TRIUMPH OF LOCAL OPTION. The mostgratifying result ever achieved, by the Temperance men in Pennsylvania, has been achieved an the late vote against license. Well may they feel elated at the result. It was evident to every practical Temperance man, that there were import ant districts, where millions were invested in liquors, in which Total Prohibition would fail, and that it was only by sub mitting the question to the people, in the various counties, and being sotiefted with whatever territory could be wrenched from the territory of King Alcohol, that any thing like practical temperance could be .aeconiplished. It was, in other words, a 9raetical conclusion to make a stroke for the whole State and be satisfied with the -smallest fragment. Of course the one-idea men opposed "such half-way measures," as they were pleased to term Local Option, and insisted upon all or nothing, but the late vote vindicates the position of the practical Temperance men in the fact that more than half of the territory•of the State bas been conquered and King Akohel is a fugitive. This is certainly glory enough for one day. It was far more than they had a right to expect. It would have been a triumph ifanly a single county had been ewried, but when we take into considera tion the fact that the entire central portion of the State, from New Yuri; to Maryland, has been carried, we can only awreciate the magnitade of the triumph. The practical Temperance men do not Oahu that Local Option will entirely cure the evil of intemperance. No. They claim chat it will restrict the use of intoxicants. Instead of placing the ten-cent glass in reach of the yosug and the old, it rim:oyes it from sight, and while the hardened old sucker may occasionallyeneceed in getting eu a bust, yet the youths of the land will seldom, if ever, be brought face to face with it. Here is where the great practi cal good will be accomplished. In the course of a few years the rising generation will know very little, if anything, in re gard to Alcoholic drinks. air Previous to the borough election in Shirleysburg, held on Friday, the 4th inst., the Democrats made a proposition to the Republicans to corm a Union ticket to be voted for. To this the Republicans agreed. A ticket was Anosinoted, each party selecting their own mep and pro fessing themselees satisfied with ,the result . . According to the arrangement the Demo crats were to have the Burgess and the Republicans the Assessor. For the !otter .offiee Dr. Gehrett was nominated. The morning previous to the election Wm. A. Freiker end George Whittaker printed the tickets, printing a few with the name of Dr. Gehrett on, which were sent to the i post-offiee for.distetbution. The remainder .of the tickets were pi4toted with the name -of another persom---suggestecl by Woods' men and Democrats. One Denteerat, J. 31. Lightner, mt at the polls end gave these tickets out; all the Republicans but five or six getting their tickets from him -and others, and thus innocently defeating their own nominee. Republieaus should hereafter exclude Woods men, if they do not wish them to cut their throats as they slid in this case ; there is no honesty in ahem! The Democratic Press of the Old District on the Extra Sal ary Grab. Speer as seen Through Demo cratic Spectacles. The Honest Man who Denounced Kelly! A " Cut Behind" that the "Little Joker" Won't Relish. We copy the following articles from our Democratic cotemporaries to show our Re publican readers how Mr. Speer's 95,000 grab is regarded by them : "CUT BEIII ND."—The conduct of many members of the Forty-Second Congress, viewed in the light of the la3t acts of that body, reminds one of the moral conveyed by Talmage in his last work under the above heading. Applying the precepts of that lesson to the matter now in hand we behold a body of "Statesmen" re-enacting the scenes of their lioyhood only on a more extensive scale Throughout its last session the world beheld acts done in the American Congress which has forever disgraced that body in the eyes of all who are unaccustomed to life in the dirty pool of political corrup tion. Fate stripped the masks from the faces of hypocritical professors of morality and virtue, and instantly the new fledged bantlings flapped their wings and promised admiring constituents a glorious soaring to the pinnacle of patriotism and political purity. The enormity of the crimes com mitted by those stripped of their masks was echoed through the capitol (or truth fully speaking through the columns of the Congressional Globe) in words which burn with righteous indignation and sol- I emit pledges of eternal political chastity upon the part of said bantling; that good right arm was raised on high and Heaven I implored to strike it palsied if ever its own er gave act or vote in aid of such diaboli-1 cal schemes; the columns of eloquence are issued in pamphlet form and sent broad cast over the virgin member's district; the local press thereof is "impressed" with the grandeur of the composition and the heroism of the member who thus dared condemn the crimes of those high in party esteem and public place, and the first page of the paper is given to the redistribution of the speech and the editorial columns to glowing rhapsodies over the accomplish ments of "our member." Constituents read and rejoice that they voted for the man; and hill and valley echo with,praise of "our member." But hark ! way up the valley the telegraph sings a new song. Eye and ear catch the strain as does the bison the light and cracking of a prairie fire Tile Goddess of Liberty had not fin ished her work; other masks are falling, and behold the faces behind them. He who eloquently besought Heaven to wit ness the purity of his motives in denounc ing the victims of Credit Mobilier and the advocates of increased pay, is seen delving to the arm pits, in the coffers of the nation for the extra $5OOO he, the day before, pronounced robbery and treason. The burning denunciation was but the cry of the boy who failed to secure a seat upon the coach—" Cut Behind." The bantling proves a vulture ; Credit Mobilier dwindles into insignificance in compara son with the greed of the new member, and the open advocate of increased pay becomes a hero who has the courage to do what he beiievts right in the face of a frowning world, when contrasted with him who raised his eyes to heaven and prayed for deliverance from avarice, and, having allured his neighbors to the place of pray er aneaked into their ungarded homes and stole the hard earnings of the fear, Judas did not cry "cut behind," but went out and hanged himself.—Monitor. • A FAT TAKE.—FIGGRES THAT WON ' T LlE.—The people must pay the piper, and they pay him well under the last salary grab. Congress met on the first Monday of December last, and adjourned on the 4th day of MaFeh, last—covering a period of ninety-four days, fiiurteen thereof being Sundays. Deducx Snudays and we have eighty working days during the period. Salary for the session $75,000. Suppose they were in session every day during that period, their pay would be j 93.75 EACH PER DAY. Use usual daily sessions last about four hours—for .42jch sum they receive the enormous pay of $25,44 pp HOUR— a well paid set of trusty (?) servantrnaly. Their bosses feel quite lucky to receive, and are happy in the possession of $1.50 per day or 15 cents per hour. A more generous constituency would be hard to scare 15.--Ifonitor. Remember, ye wi,:p condemn the salary theft, that some of the tiaieyes are waiting to secure the endorsement of their next party convention before they apply the extra $5,000 to their own use. After your delegates endorse their course in Congress you cannot complain of : ; he rob bery. At the Delegate Elections this matter must be determined, and yours will be the fault if delegates are elected who will endorse the plunder. To-day is not a moment too soon to prepare for the dele gate elections.—Monitor. A rare chance for the inventive tal ' cnt, of the country—Pay big.

RADIC.44. itEFOßM.—Since the Repub lican party came power, on a reform and economic platform Ro*lipan Con gressmen have increased their pay from 18.00 per day and roast beef for dinner" to $7,500 per session or $23.44 per hour. . If they haven't run economy into the ;pound, they . have. certainly'.pi•iifited large ly b;1 theirown industry. A frugal sot of public servants they be surely. Palaces abound, and why not. "Is not the servant worthy of his hire ?" If so, why net let him fix his own wages. Why should he be compelled, like the common herd, to delve as whcle fife-time for a bare competeney, when he can vote himself rich, or have others do so for him by a simple yea or nay ? So we go,—.3fonitor. —Of the hundreds of men who have called to talk of the extra salary steal, so far but one has ventured to defend those who have or may hereafter pecket the ex tra $5OOO. Unfortunately his defense savors so strongly of pot house logic that honest men cannot but be disgusted. The sole argument of this defender was that inasmuch as Republicans were allowed to steal, Democrats should IM.ve the same privilege, and neither press or people should condemn an M. C. who did only what his Radical associates did. "Eph raim is joined to his idols, let him alone," but watch and pray for a day of deliver ance from the Philistians who have seized our capitol and subjected the nation to their lust for gold.--Monitor. When the bill increasing the salary of the members of Congress to $5OOO was be fore that body, just prior to its adjourn ment, Mr. Speer had the moral courage I and independence to vote against it; and I for his vote on that important occasion we could not suppress the exclamation, "well done, good and lltithful servant !" Mr. Speer afterwards. however, consented to receive and did receive this extra pay, and in doing so we do not question the honesty of his motives. For this we would gladly defend him if we could, but after full and calm reflection upon the subject, we feel that it would be impossible fcr us , to adopt that course. It is very true that he was in no way responsible for the pas ' sage of the bill, for he voted squarely and I manfully, as we have said, against it; but thee the question legitimately arises, was he justified afterwards in availing himself of its benefits ? We believe, in all candor and sincerity, that he was not, and that, he committed a grievous mistake and one that will seriously affect his future political prospects. We speak thus more in sorrow than in auger, but it is nevertheless our deliberate and honest conviction. We may of course be mistaken, but such is our well settled opinion of the effect of hie act. We publish below a thin and transparent article on this ex trapay business, and in jus tification of the acceptance of the money by those who opposed the measure, fzotn the ' 1 Lewistown Democrat. The idea, orrather ' the proposition, maintained in the article, that if a member would decline to lift his ' money it would simply remelts lying in the ' Treasury until doomsday, is utterly ab surd and preposterous. As we understand the matter, the Sergeant at-Arms of the House. controls the disbursement or pay • moat of this appropriation to the members ' of that body. How simple a proceeding ' it would be for the next Congress to call, by resolution, on that officer for a report, showing the amount of money in his hands unclaimed or refused by the members, and then direct him to pay such monies back ' ir.to the Treasury, out of which he receiv ed it. This seems to us to be common sense and precisely what would be done I under the circumstances. The other posi ' tions advanced by the Democrat are ly fallacious and unsound.-Leamoria (Dean.) Freeman. 7:€9... Hon. John Scott, one of the best and truest, and purest Senators Pennsyl vania has ever had, and of whom she ought to be proud, delivered a great speech in the United States Senate on the 14th day of March, 1573, on the res olution of Mr. Mortou declaring that Mr. Caldwell has not been duly elected a Sen ator for the State of Kansas. ti 3 #, great speech. It shows that the heart of Roe. john Scott beats in unison with the hearts o the people—the tax payers of the State and nation,,and that he is opposed to vandalism, corruption, chichanery, hypocrisy and all the small tricks in politics, that so many of our moil politicians at home and abroad resort to, to make for themselves a little reputation. lion. John Scott has honored his State, Now let tho people of the State say to him, AAVeII done good and faithful servant come up higher", lie is the psopar, Linn and the people will honor him.—Brown's Belkfote Re publican. Mt. The Philadelphia Press says in ef fect, "It is rather disheartening to find that the religious toleration, in Japan, turns out to be nop quite such good news as was believed at the time of its publica, tion." Ali, indeed ! How natural it is for the Press to cry against the poor Ja panese, who cannot comprehend our sys tem, but it has never a word of condem nation for the bigots who refuse toleration to the Wevmth Day Baptists who believe conscientiously that. seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God." Thesp people can be hounded down and fined at every turn, by mercenary and malicious scoundrels, and when they ask the privil ege to exercise the right of conegieuce un trammelled, some ass, like Elliott of Phil adelphia, says the bill is "a great iniquity." If they could all run railroads and disturb everybody along a Noe of hundreds of miles they could have the privilege withl out restraint ! There are no Japanese in Pennsylvania! Oh, no! True to the promise of his early life, and true to the friends who elected him, the Hen. g, AI. Speer has shown himself as pure and hunest us he was able and eloquent in'the 'discharge cf his duty. He has passed through 'the vitiated moral atmosphere ef Washington .unssathetl, and returns' tio his constituents with clean hands.7—johttst6a Welt.

It is true, says the Harrisburg Telegraph, that the Demoeratie candidate for Governor is elected by a. majority of 3,609 simply ow lug to a local question—the removal of the State Capital. The citizens of Hartford are anxious to have the State Capital re moved from New Haven, to which the lat ter objects, and the Republican candidate lost over two thousand votes in that town alone on this question. The political issue at the election was made on the candidates fin. Congress, who were elected last Monday. Now let us tee how it stands in that quarter. The State is divided into four Congrestional districts, and the result is as follows: Ist district, Republican inaj, 2 , 1 do do . 3:I ~i. Total majority 3,440 Sth district, Pemocratic muj 1,440. Balance, Now, if the Democrats have carried the State on the vote for Governor, it is equal ly clear that the Republicans carried it by two thousand majority on Congressmen, hence one party can just. as reasonably claim a victory as the other. Taking the election as a whole it was a cengdeyably mixed affair,• and if any one thing is proven morq clearly than another by the result, it is that the voters of Con necticut arc not bound very closely by party ties, and do not hesitate to "bolt" on a very extensive scale. IF we were to con fine our eiti;?;4pe of Oe result of the elec tion to the vow for Governor (as tha Dem ocrats di), why of course we would be to acknowledge that the Democrats had achieved a very decisive triumph.
