S It is a crime, according to the Globe and Monitor, to come from Shaver's Creek. _Shaver's Creek Democrats, re member this. sm. The news from all parts of the State is most cheering.

Ed. McPherson opened the campaign, at Reading, last week, with a masterly- effort. We will publish his speech as soon as we can find room for it. There, isn't anything, in this sec tion, running like our county ticket, save, perhaps; the "Limited Mail." The grass hoppers have switched off and run in the ground. am.

The Monitor wants Orlady to go to Blair county for his votes. It wants him out of the way to give Gen. Jackson a clear field, but George can't accommo date it. Not much. ges. The Globe is still harping on Woods-Orlady, but it appears to have no more effect than the baying of the little dog has upon the moon. The moon still goes on and the people are nowise dis tarbed. sir We hope the temperance element in our party will read our article on "Gov. Ilartranft and Local Option." It ought to go far towards removing the wrong im pressions under which they ar3 laboring. sar In Huntingdon county there are some men who have been well cared for by the party, but, having accomplished their ends, they now feel that they are under no obligations to the party. This is base ingratitude. ser There is a temperance man, in this county, who is so infatuated that ho really beliivis that Brown may be elected, and that," too, when only 200 persons in this county are willing to avow their determi nation to vote for him ; and in the face of the fact that there are ten counties in the State in which he will not get a score of votes. GOVERNOR HARTRANFT and THE REPEAL OF LOCAL OPTION. - - EDITOR Drunkenness, we arc sorry to admit, has exiqed in all the epoeho reeordel by sAcrisl and profane historians, and innu• merable have been the; measures resorted to to eiretnnseribe it. Patriarchs inveighed against it; emperors and kings fultninatel decrees against it and deliberative balie;a prescribed it; and yet, it is extremely doubtful, whether in the latter hair or the nineteenth century of the Christian era, we are uny nearer eradicating it than they were in the Middle Ages or in the days of the Hebrew Prophets. The last half century has been extreni ly fruitful in the production of measures in tended to avert, or, at least, arrest it. One of these remedial measures is universally known throughout Pennsylvania, and several other state 2; as "Local Option." It is not our object to describe this piece of remedial or restrictive legislation, because it is familiar to all our readers, but more particulary to show its operation. "Local Option," all will remember, was a mere experiment. Many of the tuo.t ardent and zealous temperance men in the State predicted that it would prove a fail ure, and some of them went so far as to bitterly oppose its enactment.. But the people desired to check the constantly growing curse, a curse, as we stated above, handed down from the earliest ages, and they insisted upon trying the experiment. A Republican Legislature determined to yield to their many prayers and passed it and a Republican Governor approved it. The question of "License" or "No Li cense" was submitted to the voters of the respective counties of' the State, save oue or two, at the Spring elections in 1573. Forty counties adopted "Local Option."— A large portion of them was made up of the poorer and more sparsely settled coun ties. In the wealthy and morn populated it was defeated by lie;kvy ta.L. jorities. This was already a very [rue, feature in the measure. It was no sooner adopted than tile vicious and lawless classes set to work to reap a rich harvest out of the whiskey traffic. Every device, that human inge nuity could invent, was brought into requi sition to further their plans. These de vices were principally operated under cover of darkness when good men slept. Al_ most every collar, leading from a dark and secluded alley, became a bar-room ; almost every hole in a wall seemed to contain the coveted fluid; every unoccupied third or fourth story was known, to the initiated, by its golden, or silver, or other appro priate, or inappropriate, steps; and every drug store dispensed across its counters, bar rels of whiskey and diluted alehohol. Men walked about the streets with a bottle in one pocket and a glass in the other—living, perambulating bar-rooms—retailing the vilest stuff at ten and fifteen cents a drink; others clubbed together and bought it by the cask and demijohn and drank it in the alleys, lanes and groves, and worse than all this, the railroads and express companies were burdened, almost to their utmost capacity, carrying liquor, in a thousand different ways, to the homes of private citizens. In the short space of two years the liquor traffic was taken out of the hands of the respectable salo3n--011t of the hands of the responsible tilan— and placed under the coat: of of the vilest elements known to our society, and not only this, but it converted the private residence of every liberal man into a bar room ! For twenty years we had labored to banish all alcoholic beverages, and tem perance men throughout the common wealth rejoiced with us at the success, and in two short years "Local Option" undid the work of twenty ! We remember asking a friend in a district that had been remark able for its sobriety fur many years, how "Local Option" was doing. His reply was that it was doing great harm ; that in the short space of four months two men had sold over one hundred barrels of liquor to their neighbors. He explained that distil leries could not sell in less quantities than five gallons, and every man in his neigh borhood had taken at least five gallons ; and he added that the five gallons did not usually last any longer than a quart formerly bought at the licensed house in the adjoin ing district. These alarming evils should have been sufficient to have compelled the repeal of "Local Option," but there was still a worse feature than all these : This was the banding together of men into societies for the avowed purpose of violating and resisting the law. These societies were formed everywhere. Men met, under cover of night, when they should have been in the bosom of their families, and drank their liquors and jeered at the law.— Could there have been anything more de moralizing in its tendencies ? And yet men wearing the garb of ministers condemn those who shut off this flood-gate of evil. No wonder, then, that when a new Leg islature was elected, late in 1874, that it was in favor of a repeal of a measure that worked such iniquities. In almost all the counties in which "Local Option" had been adopted the liquor interest made a square issue upon this question. This was the case here, and at least one avowed liquor man was elected. The result was that the Legislature was largely in favor of the re peal. The Bellefonte Republican has taken the trouble to analyze this part of the mat ter, and we draw upon it for the remainder of this article. It pertinently asks : Did Governor Ilartranft do wrong in signing the bill repealing local option ? If nor, then tem perance men who are Republicans have no good canto to try to defeat him, simply for the sake of defeating him. 11e did not do wrong in signing the bill, because the people, after two political campaigns, in which the ques:ion of the re peal of the local option law entered as an ele ment, just as much as the question can enter into any ordinary political campaign, andjust as much as it does in this campaign, declared, by a largely increased vote over that polled in favor of local option, for its repeal, by electing members to the Legislature committed to the repeal of the law. In the Spring of 1673, the following named coun ties voteu in favor of Jogai option, by the follow ing vote : Armstrong county 2,999 Beaver do Bedford do Blair do Bradford do Butler 41n Cameron do Centre do Chester do , Clarion do Clearfield do Clinton do Crawford do Cumberland do Delaware do Erie do Fayotte do Franklin do Green'; t:o Ulltingtlon do rodintia J,:fictp.ori di) .1U:1i:134 gig) Lawreni•e d.

After the passage of the local option law, and tho veto upon it in the spring of 1873, the question as to whether the local option law should bo rnpealed or maintained entered as an element in the political campaign of 1873, and also in the the campaign of 1874. The people Massed upon the c l ueetion in both campaigns, and expressed their will directly and decisively through the representatives they elected to the Legislature in both campaigns. In 1874 the Republicans maintained their ascendency in the Legislature, and local option, dispito the efforts made and in dueomenta offered to secure its repeal, remained intact, and of fordo in the custody of the Republi can party. The enemies of local option again went before the people in the campaign of 1874, and while many temperance men of strong Democratic pro clivities, who were ready to sacrifice temperance and everything else to secure a Damoeratio victory, struck hands of warmest friendship with the ene mies of local option, as did W. 11. Blair in our county, and many others were indifferent and negligent of their duty, and thus suffered the an tagonists of kcal option to win a victory, and the Democracy t partial triumph,in the State,by getting a majority in the Legislature. Of the forty coun ties that voted in favor of local option in 1873, twenty-nine of them elected reresentatives to the Legislature who were pledged to the repeal of the local option law in 1874.

Whole vote polled in twenty-nine of the local option counties, in 1874, in facer of the repeal of the law 96,414 Ch ester Clcartio7 Clarion Clinton Crawford Cumberland Delaware Erie Fayette Franklin Greene Huntingdon Jefferson Juniata Luz,rne Lyculnlng bleK earl 3lifain Mon tour Porry Soint•[sct Ti:: .41 anco Westmoreland The same twenty-nine counties, in the spring of 1873, polled in favor of local option only 74,- 251 votes. So that, after a trial of local option for nearly two years, the people of twenty-nine local option counties out of forty, by the decisive vote of 96,414 votes to 74,251 votes, demanded its reppeal. Or in other words, the people of twenty nine local option counties out of forty, cast in the campaign of 1873 twenty-two thousand one hundred and sixty-three more votes in favor of the repeal of local option, then they cast in favor of local option in 1874. Everyone of those twen ty-nine counties elected representatives to the Legislature committed to the repeal of the law, and they voted for its repeal. In the face of the above facts and figures, who is in fault, and who is responsible, for the repeal of the local option law? No intelligent and honest man can hold Gov. Hartranft responsible for its repeal. He was not elected as a temper ance candidate, but was elected by the Republican party as Gov. of Pennsylvania. As such, he was the executive officer of the Commonwealth. It is not his province to make law, but to execute such laws as the people, through their representatives, make for themselves. Now, if the people of Penn sylvania and especially the local option portion of it, did not want the law repealed, why did they elect members to the Legislature committed to the repeal of the law? Why temperance men themselves, who now manifest so much concern about the matter, should lay idly by, and many of them join hands with and work for Democratic candidates in 1874, and thus by their own act and want of true, honest work and watchfulness, permit their enemies to gain a signal triumph over them at the polls, and then, when their favorite candidates work a re peal of the law, censure the Executive of the State and hold him responsible for their own acts and negligence, we are unable to see. Why not censure a Democratic Legislature ? Had Gov. Hartranft a right to disregard the voice of the people of those twenty-nine counties, in 1874, that voted for local option in 1873, and which in 1874 elected representatives direct from among themselves pledged to a repeal of the law by twenty-two thousand one hundred and sixty-three votes more than they cast for local option in 1873 ? Surely he had not. To disregard the voice of the people, legitimately expressed, by the chief exe cutive of the State or nation, would be to disre gard the fundamental principles of a free republic, and be subversive of the same. Yea, more ; it would be to defy the majority and make the Gov ernor of a State a self-constituted autocrat.— Any executive officer who, by an unwarrantable exercise of the veto power, attempts to maintain or enforce a public policy of his own, or of even that of a minority of the State, against the legi timately expressed will of the majority, and which they have repudiated through the ballot, is unfit to be an executive of the State, and should incur the possibility of impeachment. Then we not only regard the action of Gov. Hartranft in sign ing the action repealing local option as not wrong, but as perfectly right, and just what any other honorable, fair, and upright Governor would, un der similar circumstances, have done. In doing so, he simply obeyed the will of the majority of the people of the State, regularly expressed through the ballot box, and thus evinced his unselfish Re publicanism and true statesmanship ; and for this he is to be condemned! Will temperance men who are Republicans allow themselves to be made the willing tools of their enemies, the Democrats? The Democrats, who are temperance candidates for the regular tiekct, and hence will do nothing for Brown and Pennypacker. Can the temperance party afford to defeat the Republican party, and put the Democratic party in power? Calf the ultra-temperance men afford to antagonize against them, the true, honest, and reliable men of the Republican party? Will the temperance men al low the whiskey interest and Democrats to use them as a wedge and maul, to split themselves up as a body of reformers, and deal to themselves as a body of reformers, and deal to themselves and their cause a blow from which they cannot recover for years ? Then can they suffer them selves, as Republicans, to be used to discipline or castigate Gov. Hartranft for doing that which the people, many of whom were the temperance men who are now up in arms, by a large vote asked him to do? Stir We call attention to the following letter of John E. Smucker, esti , with drawing his name as a candidate for Coun ty Auditor : To Jos. G. ISENBERG, Esq., Chm'n. Sep. Co. Cow., DEAR Sla :—I respectfully return my thanks to the Republican Delegates for the honor conferred upon me in the nomination for County Auditor, without my solicitation, but as by the Act of 1841 it is questionable wheth er I would be eligible to said office, having been employed in the office of the County Treasurer, I therefore withdraw the use of my name for said office. J. E. SMUCKER, Huntingdon, Sept. 20, 1875. Ths_ Both the Affmitor and Globe are happy in the thought that our lease ex pires next April. Sorry, gentlemen, but there is no such good news for you.

What Myton Knows About Farming EvITOR JOURNAL :—The Globe of last week, having attacked Prothonotary My. ton. in connection with ourselves, charging him with farming his office and of making money out of it, illegally, through us, we deem it due to Mr. Myton to say that the charges against him are entirely unfound ed and absolutely false. He hos not made the alleged improper use of his office, eith er in the case mentioned, of which he had no personal knowledge, or in any other case. As for ourselves, the facts in the Forshey case are entirely misrepresented and falsely stated. But, knowing that the editor of the Globe delights in parading his fancied personal grievances before the public, and knowing, too, that it is better to be abused by that sheet than praised by it, we care too little about the charges against us to offer any further explanation. It being part of our professional duty to collect claims, left with us fur collection, from delinquent debtors, we need offer no explanation. We merely publish this to emphatically deny the charges made against Mr. Myton, who is a thoroughly upright and honest man in every sense of the term as his official career has fully shown . . J. F.

It thinks we simply desire to create dissensions in the Democratic ranks. We claim that we have a perfect right to present the views of Democrats who are unfairly treated by their fellows. But suppose ire did desire to create dis sensions in the Democratic ranks, it would only be administering to Dr. Speer a little of his own medicine.

All we have to say is that we have the fact from the lips of a gentleman, who does not reside in Huntingdon county, and to whom Mr. Speer made the state ment. The gentleman gives the time, the place and the circumstances under which it was communicated, and says fur ther that he knew nothing of the kind , at that time and in fact knew little or nothing about Huntingdon county politics. He had never heard the charge before, nor has he heard it since. So, Mr. Speer, stand up and be sentenced : Never maliciously prevaricate to injure a partisan whom you desire to get out of your way. gm. The Globe has found a monster mare's nest. It heads the astonishing discovery with "How Myton Farms the Prothonotary's office." A Mr. A. J. Forshcy had a judgment note against A. L. Guss, and he wanted to have it enter ed and applied to Mr. Shock, Deputy Prothonotary, who recommended him to Mr. Fleming and Mr. Fleming attended to the claim and collected the money, and demanded the percentage to which he was entitled. This is all that was in the mat ter. Mr. Myton knew nothing about the affair until he saw the howl in the last Globe. Ber A very ardent and zealous Repub lican, in the "Lower End," writes to a friend and says that the Globe and .Moni tor are teeming with blackguardisw and billingsgate while the JOURNAL is as tame as a kitten. He evidently wants us to fcllow suit, but we mildly thank him and assure him that they may have a monop oly of the business as far as we are con cerned. The Monitor and Globe will hard ly admit the tameness of the JOURNAL, but then they are no judges. gm. On to-morrow, (Thursday, the 23rd of September), the JOURNAL will have at tained its fortieth year. On the 23rd of September, A. D., 1835, A. W. Benedict, esq., issued the first number of the JOUR NAL, and from that time until the present, as far as we know, it has never suspended beyond a single issue. We are happy to assure those who have stood by it all these many years that it is better equipped to day and more prosperous than it ever has been, though the panic has made it ex tremely difficult to raise money. serf- Mr. Speer parades this bit of in telligence in the last Monitor. It is so modest—just like him : "Hon. R. Milton Speer, of Huntingdon, stood in the front rank. He is familiar with parliamentary law, his courteous demeanor to all; his great ability as a statesman (God save the remark !) and pleasing oratory marked him at once as one of the most able men of the State, and the rising man of the Common wealth." Great Moses ! Jim Campbell wrote this. No other man, save, perhaps, the ostensible editor of the Monitor, could have done it. stir Having grown weary of hard labor, the editor has gone off to rusticate, and to attend a bitter prosecution fur libel.— There is no better place, on the continent, to rusticate than Bedford, and if he should find it convenient to remain over there for forty days and forty nights it is some con• solation to know that he will have the sympathy of the editor of the Globe. The Democrats used to tell us that they would exchange greenbacks for wood, cord for cord, but they wore bad prophets. They aro now working around, only too willing to increase the volnmo of this sub stantial currency.

Repuldlean party had to shoulder all the evils under which the country is laboring. Yet they elected their Governor and Legislature. Hon. Samuel Calvin and Major Wm. Williams, of Hollidaysburg, have gone over to the Democracy, and address ed the Democratic ratification meeting in that place on Friday evening last. It is the general opinion of their neighbors that their influence will injure tho Re publican cause to the very serious amount of—two votes. us. The Guss men boast that they are going to elect their candidate for County Commissioner beyond fail. This means a full board of Republicans. The Demo crats are to he left out, eh ? The only way in which this can be ,lone is by the Guss men cutting the Democrats. Well, it is none of our business, but we suspect that there are two who can play at that game. C , The editor of the Globe sold a doz en or two copies of the paper in which he confessed that he was the most abject tool of Mr. Woods alive, and now he proposes to get up a new edition. It may have as much of a run as that of any of the con fessions of the most noted criminals. There is a class that revels in this kind of litera ture, you know.
