A Pew Votes from the Legislative Recortiof
CYRUS L PERSFING,
Democratic Candidate, for Governor.
It is claimed that Mr. PerAinn. gave a
cordial support to the Goveronpuit in the
late war. Read the following and ask
yourself if they were the votes of loyal and
patriotic men ?
Voted for resolution declaring the emanci
pation Proclumational unconstitntion, and
the Precilent's acts arbitrary.—See Journal
Rouse of Representatives of PennsNlvania 1863,
page 887.
- Voted against ratifying the amendment to
the Constitution, abolishing Slavery.—See
House Journal 1865, page 173.
Voted against the passage of the Act of May
4th, 1864. (P. L. page 221,) providing for the
organization of the militia.—See Legislative
Record, 1861, page 918.
Voted against the passage of Act of Aug.
25, 1864, (P. L. page 990,) giving the Soldier
the right to vote —See Legislative Record,
1864, page 1330.
Opposed the passage of Act of May 3d,
1864, P. L. page 732.) providing for the pay
ment of the interest on the State debt in legal
tender notes, instead of specie. lie also took
the position that the United States Legal
Tender Act is unconstitutional.—See his re
marks on this subject, in Legislative Record for
1864, page 140, &c.
The significance of this opposition con
sisted in the fact that gold at that date
commanded a premium of nearly 100 per
cent
It is alleged that Mr. Pershing is the
friend of the Working Man. Let men
who toil for bread, examine the following
votes, and determine for themselves
whether these are in the interests of the
laboring class.
Voted against passage of Act to prohibit
corporations paying their employes in orders
upon stores.—See House Journal, 1853, pages
796-797.
Voted for passage of Act to make employes
of Railroad companies responsible for acci
dents—See House Journal, 1865, pages 619-
620,
The three following votes further illus
trate the attitude of Mr. Pershing in the
great contest between the corporations
and the people. He was not with the
people.
Voted against repealing the Act of 7th
march 1861, releasing the Pennsylvania Rail-
Road Company from payment of tonnage tax.
See Rouse Journal, 1862, page 558.
Voted for the passage of an Act, giving the
Philadelphia k Erie Rail Road Company
power to construct branches without limit or
restriction.—See House Journal, 1866, page
538.
Voted for the repeal of the Charter of the
Pittsburgh Connellsville Rail Road Com
pany.—See Legislative Record, 1864, ;Sage 800.
The following is of interest to every
farmer and lot owner in Pennsylvania.
UNDER Democratic rule in Penns;l
- the farmers and house balm paid
81,500,000 a year of State tax. at.d the
great corporations almost escaped taxation
on their vast wealth; in 1866, the Repub•
liean party urged the repeal of all State tax
on the farms and homes of our people, and
the taxation of corporations in their stead.
CYRUS L. PERSHING "DODGED"
the vote.—Slc Legislative Record, 1866,
page 231 ;
The crowning impeachm_mt of Mr.
Pershing's claims to broad or decent
Statesmanship is founded on tlic vote fol
lowing, especially directed against, a class
of our citizens who were then helpless,
and the fleeing to our borders from their
enraged oppressors.
Voted for bill to prohibit Negroes coming.
into the State to make it their temporary nr
permanent residence.—See Rouse Journal,
1663, page 556 and 547.
DR. DANIEL CURRY ON THE TEM
PERANCE MOVEMENT.
Ternperinee Men, Read
In The New York Ntist i(trt Advornte,
of the 30th ult.. Dr. Curry under the head
of "Political probabilities," says : "Among
the political factors of the times, comes
the temperance question. A portion of
our best citizens have judged it expedient
to make the prohibition of the liquor traf•
fic their sole governing idea in disposing
of their suffrages; and as neither of the
cheif parties come up to their standard,
they have drawn off from both, and set
up tin. themselves. Of course, their is no
rational hope that they can succeed in
electing their candidates ; and theref ire
the immediate result of their action is to
withdraw from the election a part of the
best moral and political elements of the
community.

"When a party recognizes the fact that
it contains a considerable temperance ele
ment its platform and its nominations will
be made with respect to that element ; hut
if that is withdrawn and arrayed in oppo
sition, then, since: that vote is hopelessly
alienated, policy may incline it. to fitvor
the anti-temperance element. But these
good people seem to have made up their
minds that no bread is better than a half
loaf, and so that available somewhat is to
be sacrificed for an idea. And here, again,
tae Republican party seems likely to be
the losar, since nearly every prohibition
ist is drawn out of that party, and, of
course, its aggregate vote is diminished
just to the extent that the third party
shall swell its vote. The Democratic par
ty has the confidante of the free-liquor
men, and will receive their undivided
vote, and every temperance vote is equal
to half a vote of' the same party ; the Re
publican party ha.s not. the favor uf that
portion of the temperance men, and will
not receive their support."

This is a most sensible view, and we
hope political temperance ministers will
have discretion enough to listen to the

For a time Mr. o . Baldwin flonrished
like a green hay tree. He was the pet of,
the short haired fraternity, and the disso
lute women of the town lavished their
smiles upon him, and life was, in a fever
ish way, rose tinted as possible. Int. the
dark days came. The populnee tired of
him, and dissipation wealcened his huge
carcass, so that plenty of younger men
could bang him about. Then Mr. 4Y-
Baldwln, to furnish bread for himself and
get his liquor at wholesale prices. opened
a bar room with another Irishman named
Piunell. The speculation did not pay. for
some reason. Probably Mr. fritaldwin's
whiskey was exceptionally bad, or possibly
those who would otherwise have been cut,-
turners feared him when in his cups and
wisely kept away. Be it as it may, Mr.
('Baldwin, Wednesday night. appeared to
Mr. Finnell, and absolutely annonneed that
he should quit the place. Mr. Finnell's
hot Celtic blood rose at this summary dis
solution, and, as if determined that it
should be complete, drew his pistol a nd
planted two balls in 01;aldwin's body.—
As either would have Guished the giant.
there was a waste of one cartridge. which
I regret. for it is a pity that it eonlil nit
hire missed its aim and killed some one
else in the room. But we can't have
everything to snit us. Mr. O'Biildwin
was carried out, and after lingering twen
ty-four hours, in great agony. died. Mr.
Finnell gave himself op the day after. and
as he does not appear to have much in
fluence among the Democracy (he had
_iliac
started his rum mill), there is a cheerful
prospect that he will be hung. It's rather
expensive business hanging these fellow 4.
but in the long run it pays.
