THE CAMPAIGN.
The Republican State Central Commit
tee has been fully organized for the cam
paign, by the appointment of Hon. M. S.
Quay as Chairman, and Lucius Rogers,
of McKean county, and Milton S. Lytle,
of Huntingdon, as Secretaries. The head
quarters of the Committee will be at rooms
5 and 6, Continental Hotel, Philadelphia.
The energy and determination with
which work has been commenced by the
Committee, is, in itself, an assurance of
success. That the Republican ticket will
be elected does not admit of a doubt.
Mr. Lytle's duties as Secretary may
require him to be absent from Huntingdon,
but will not interfere in any way with his
labors in the editorial department of this pa-
per. His position upon the Committee will
afford him facilities for:making the JOUR
NAL what we design it to be,the leading Re-
publican newspaper of Central Pennsylva
nia.

Ta Globe of last week announced Gen.
Grant as its choice for the Presidency in
1880. A number of papers throughout
the oountry have expressed a similar pref
erence, and the idea seems to be popular.
It is a loag time yet before a candidate
will be chosen, but at this stage of the
game Grant's chances of again leading the
Republican party to victory are reasonably
promising.
WEIZN four or five of the alleged work
ingmen who manage the Greenback cause
in Huntingdon county, slrround a gentle

him of the error of his ways and of the
righteousness of their owo, they are likely
to squeeze all the honest industry out of
him.
TILDEN'S HUNDRED THOUSAND.
The evidence so far taken by the Potter
investigating committee at Washington
shows that the boldest and most corrupt
effort to procure the commission of fraud
in oounection with the Louisiana election
was made by Democratic agents. Judge
A. B. Levisse, now of Washington, one of
the Hayes electors in that State, swears
that one hundred thousand dollars were
offered him to refuse to accept his certifi
cate as an elector. A New Orleans banker,
by the name of Asher, was the person by
whom this bribery was to be effected, and
who said he was to receive ton thousand
dollars for it. This investigation, like all
others instituted by the Democrats, has
disclosed more Democratic rascality than
Republican. Hadn't they better quit the
business
THE FREE TRADE PARTY.
Is the Democratic party in favor of free
trade or tariff? Let us answer this ques
tion not with any assertions of the politi
cians, nor with the campaign professions
of that party put forth for the purpose of
influencing the approaching election. We
take the record it has made in Congress
upon Wood's so called tariff bill, only so
called because it relates to the subject of
tariff, and not because it is in the interest
of protection It is in reality a free-trade
measure. The House of Representatives
at Washington came to a vote upon the
bill on the sth inst. Mr. Wood lost eon
fidence in its success before the vote was
taken, on account of the almost solid Re
publican opposition to it, and in order to
save it from defeat proposed to postpone
its further consideration until next session.
But the Republicans were not willing to
permit such an incumbus to hang over the
country and insisted upon immediate ac
tion. The Democrats were therefore com
pelled to make their record. It is not so
uncertain as the platform of the Pittsburgh
convention. They acted sincerely, because
upon their action depended the fate of
their pet scheme. Of the 131 Democrats
voting upon the bill, 113 voted for it and
18 against it. Does not this sufficiently
answer the question at the head of this ar
ticle ? When the Democrats pretend that
their party is in favor of protection, it is
but necessary to refer them to that vote.
An individual member of the party who
is a tariff man is obliged to vote in oppo
sition to his own views if he votes the tick
et of his party. A few more Democratic
members of Congress, and Wood's bill
would have been passed. Give them great
er strength in the next Congress than they
have in the present one, and this bill, or a
similar one, or a worse one, will be brought
forward and the party machinery will be
used to make it the law of the land. It is
no reply to this that the bill was defeated
in a Democratic Congress. So few of that
party voted against it as to scarcely break
their lines. The Republicans were still
more united than they. But 7of the lat
ter voted for free trade and 116 fur pro_
tection. Pennsylvanians should study the
great contrast between the two parties.

AN HONEST ACT.
The perjured villain Anderson, the first
and principal witness for the Democrats in
their attack upon President Hayes' title,
was appointed consul to Funchal in May,
1877. But some charges coming to the
President's ears against his character, the
following letter was sent to the Secretary
of State :
EXECUTIVE MANSION,
WASHINGTON, May 26, 1877
DEAR MR. SECRETARY : If the commission
which the President signed on the 24th inst.,
for James E. Anderson as Consul of the United
States at Funchal has not been delivered to
the appointee, the President" will be pleased
to have you retain possession of it until fur
ther inquiries as to Mr. Anderson's character
are instituted. Very truly yours,
_ Wm. K. Rouges, Private Sec'y.
To THE SECRETARY or STATE. Preßefit.
Now, if the President had made the ap
pointment through corrupt motives, as a
reward for frauds committed by Anderson
at the election, or for any alteration or
forgery of the returns afterwards, would he
not have been anxious to hurry the perpe
trator of such a crime off to his distant
post, where there 'would have been less
probability of him divulging it, instead of
recalling his commission before it was de
livered to him ? It never went into the
hands of Anderson, because the President
discovered that he was a scoundrel, and the
withholding of it was the best of evidence
that the President had not been a participant
in and had no knowledge of what it is alleg
ed was done in Louisiana. He is entirely
innocent of the least intention of wrong,
and he will not be removed as long as those
are in existence who elected and inaugu
rated Abraham Lincoln and sustained his
administration. The party that made
Hayes President will sustain him in the
same way against those who would unmake
LOOK- AT THE DANGER!
In view of the dangers that threaten
the country should the South come into
power through its control of the Democrat
ic party, is it not highly important that
we continue a Republican administration
in Pennsylvania? We know the opportu
nities of the State authorities to advance
the good and to counteract the evil designs
of those who may have in their hands the
management of our national affairs. If
the Governors and Legislatures of the
Northern States had been disloyal when
the rebellion began, the South would have
succeeded in destroying the Union and in
establishing a government of her own. It
was the promptness and energy of the
State executives that saved the nation in
that. trying emergency. The Governor of
this Commonwealth may again be called
upon by the President to sustain him in
the exercise of his authority. The ques
tion of who shall be Governor at that time
is one of vital consequence. Shall it be
one who will respond to suoh a call, one
who has shown his patriotism and courage
in other times of danger, or one whose sym
pathies and affiliations are with the men
who would force upon the President the
necessity of defending his title and his
prerogative ? Shall it be General Hoyt or
Mr. Dill ? If we must have a Democratic
Congress, as that probability increases, does
not the safety of the country almost imper
atively demand Republican State govern
ments ? Citizens, ponder these inquiries.
You will soon have to answer them.
REPLIES TO "Tauz".—"Trite's" re
cent communication in the JOURNAL stir
red up two of the leaders of the hard.
working men's party, and each of them
wrote exactly a column in reply for the
Greenback Nationalist. They must have
written by measure—so much per yard.
One of them uses the term "Cameron
slave." That is just what Speer wanted
him to say. The other makes frequent
use of the words "lie" and "liar," and
therefore his effusion will not have much
weight with sensible men who may chance
to read it. He should remember that oth
ers may differ widely from him and at the
same time be entirely truthful and more
correct in their views than he is. We can
say that "Trite" is a working man, while
the gentlemen who reply to him are not.
SOME RIGHTEOUS BULLDOZING.
It is surprising that anything usuallyk,o
unrighteous as "bulldozingv can be made
respectable and just. Whether criminal or
not depends upon the manner in which it
is done and the person upon whom it is
perpetrated. The instance disclosed below
is certainly commendable. It is contained
in one of the letters sent by the President
to the Potter investigating committee in
response to their request for correspondence
in his possession relating to the matter un
der examination. James E. Anderson,
upon whose:false testimony the Democrats
are partly relying to make out their case
against President Hayes, seems to have
been valued at his true worth before the
President recalled his commission as Con
sul to Funchal, and before he acknowledg•
ed himself on the witness stand to have
committed wilful and deliberate perjury•

lion. Wm. M. Evart:, Secretary of State, Wash
ington, D. C.:
SIR : Understanding that Mr. James E. An
derson, carpet-bagger, of New Orleans, is an
applicant for a consulship, and that he would
like letters from those who know him, I take
the liberty to enclose this to you. I am the
person who attempted to rid the State of bim
last fall. (See his testimony before Congres
sional Committee in New Orleans.) Being,
unfortunately, unsuccessful in my attempt, the
people of this State look to you fur relief, and
with one voice implore you, if you have any
vacant consulship at any earthquake-shaken
point, any cholera infected city, any yellow
fever point, or any small-pox ridden commu
nity, or any vaunt commissionership to the
fiercest of our Indian tribes, to send him to
one of those places at once, because we con
sider the said Anderson a person who has just
sufficient character to serve the party that pays
the most money, and of the class of patriots
who can best serve their country by dying for
it. Hopeful of an affirmative response, I sub•
scribe myself, JOHN W. BULLDOZER.
A TRIBUTE OF TWENTY THOUSAND.
If the Democrats do not intend any at
tack upon the President's title, as the
Pittsburgh convention declared, why have
they appropriated TWENTY THOUSAND
DOLLARS to ascertain whether he has any
title or not ? Suppose they should satisfy
themselves that Hayes was not elected,
would they turn to the country and say
that the President was seated through
fraud, that his induction into office was a
great wrong, and that they had spent a
large sum of money to prove these things,
but that they were unable to remove the
result of fraud and to relieve the people
from the wrong inflicted upon them ? In
telligent Democrats foresee that their par
ty would stultify itself by taking such a
position, and their leading newspapers are
insisting that the investigation now in pro
gress shall be pursued to its legitimate con
elision, which,according to their view, is the
removal of the President or the declaration
by Congress that Mr. Hayes never right
fully held the office, and the refusal to rec
ognize his authority. The report of the
committee will not be made and Congress
will not act thereon until after the coming
elections, the declaration of the Pittsburgh
convention will have served its purpose, it
will be forgotten, and the tide of revolu
tion will sweep on and over anything so
small as a Democratic United States Sena
tor that may stand in its way. Those $20,-
000 are the first tribute to be paid by the
people to the conspirators and revolution
ists,
THE RAID ON REAL ESTATE.
"We demand equal and just taxation of all
property whatsoever."—Greeaback Platform.
-
It requires no Daniel to interpret the
language of that resolution. If there is
to be equal taxation of all property, then
no property can escape. The farmer and
every other owner of real estate will be
compelled to pay State tax upon every foot
of land they possess, a burden from which
they were relieved by the Republican par
ty. It will increase the taxes of many
land-owners a hundred per cent. or more.
If not so, what can the brief sentence
above quoted mean ? Is it a declaration
in favor of the taxation of bonds only ? It
does not say so, but says explicity, "all
property whatsoever." And when these
additional taxes are levied and collected,
who is to be benefitted ? Why, nobody
but those who pay the State taxes now.
They will be relieved to the extent. that
the farmers will be compelled to pay. The
National Greenback party,claiming to be the
anti-monopoly and anti-corporation party,
is the first to attempt to regulate taxation
in the interest of monopolies and corpora
tions.
TILE attempt at revolution in Congress
hss entirely drawn public attention from
financial matters. The Greenbackers
ought to resent the fatal blow the Demo
crate have given their cause. It simply
proves, however, that a party founded on a
single idea must pass from existence when
that idea ceases to be of public interest or
when more important matters arise to oc
cupy the minds of the people. If the rev
olution succeeds, of what consequence will
it be whether we have contraction or ex
pansion or how the bonds shall be paid ?
It would work a wore effectual repudiation
than the repudiationists themselves ever
dreamed of.
WE have not yet been advised whether
ex-Senator Dill laid a garland on the mound
of a buried soldier on Decoration day,but we
do know that the night before he started
to Pittsburgh to connive and pull fur the
Democratic nomination- for Governor, he
did all he could do to defeat a pension for
a one-armed soldier, who has no other
source of a livelihood but his one hand.—
Such men as Dill are disposed to distribute
their honors, in this respect, where it will
enable them to play the demagogue, but
they seldom, if ever, win. No one-armed
soldier, with the least feeling of self-re
spect, can vote for Dill.—l-farrisburg Tel
egraph.
Fr is authoritatively stated that Senator
Dill does not possess a musical ear. He
can sing only one song : "Maryland, My
Maryland." Land of his birth, land of
his training, he came to Pennsylvania,
carpet bag in band, to be the pet of Wal
lace, and, by his command, nominee of the
Deniocrats for Governor. Verily, some
men arc born great, some achieve great•
ness, and some carpet bag from Maryland
to Pennsylvania.—Pittsburgh Evening Tel
egraph.
WHAT is the Wallace-machine ? A cof
fee-pot, of course.
VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
TIIENATIONAL,OREENBACK,LABOR
REFORM PARTY.
MR. Eniroa :—As the question has been fre
quently asked us, what we think 01 this party, will
you allow us to answer through the JOURNAL?—
Ono great objection wo have to, this National
Greenback party is, that its leading members are
made up of disaffected office-seekers, and fault
finders. With them, everything the government
has done fur years is all wrong, and they would
have us believe now, that they have been commis
sioned from above, to straighten up all the errors
of our government, and that they are especially
interested in the poor laboring class of men. The
great trouble with these reformers is, that they have
much clearer views of wrongs than rights. As
long as they confine themselves to denunciations
they may get along well enough. Any kind of a
bungler can pull down a house, but it takes a me
chanic to put one up, just so it is with a govern
ment, it requires no skill to break down a govern
ment, but it requires great wisdom to build one
up again. So this National party may do well
enough as long as their whole function is fault
finding. But when these fault-finders are required
to act, and to look at both sides of the questions,
which they seem not prepared to decide, looking
only at one side, they will soon discover that it is
much easier to lay down platforms than to make
laws, much easier to tear down a government than
to build it up. It is known that fault-finders are
the most useless people wo have, both in church
and State, and even in the family circle. One
complainer in a family will keep it in a continual
turmoil. Republicans who fought under the flag
during the robe lion to save our country should
remember the fault-finders who staia at home, and
just like this great National Greenback Labor-re
form party, complained of everythingt he govern
ment did to crush out the rebellion. All was
wrong an i unconstitutional, even the constitution
itself was unconstitutional. And where is the
soldier who would not rather have contended with
a dozen of rebels in front of him than have been
perplexed with one of these fault-finders in the
rear? It is an old saying and a true one, "a
complainer for a bungler always." We believe
that fault-finders are a curse to any political party,
and were it not that we fear, that by stratagem this
National Greenback Labor-reform party, may lead
some good, honest men into their ranks, out of the
Republican party, we would be silent on this sub
ject, for we really do believe that the Republican
party is much better off without them. I say they
will use stratagem. They will tell you if they get
the government into their hands, they will make
greenbacks as plenty as leaves in autumn, so that
every poor fellow can have his pockets full of them ,
work w.ll be plenty, so that every person can get
employment, and that the panic and hard times
are owing to bad administration. They claim to
have great sympathy for the laboring class. Now
this assuming friendship is all deception. All
they want of yon is your votes. They want offices,
and because they failed to get that promotion in
the Republican or Democratic party that they
thought their merits deserved, they have made
made this new departure. Office seekers generally
put a higher estimate on their merits than others
are capable of seeing. This perhaps has been
their misfortune. We would just say here, to
those who feel like casting their votes with this
National Greenback Labor-reform party, in order
to improve the times, you may just as well throw
your ballot in the fire. The idea that such a com
bination of weak elements can ever succeed, is
preposterous. You might jest as readily suppose
that you could throw a jumble of words into a hat
and shake out poetry,; as to suppose that this
secret organization can ever hold the rein of this
government. As we believe communists are one
of the most dangerous elements composing this
National party we will give a little history of this
secret order so that those who feel like voting with
this National party may know what they aro doing
and be on their guard.
We are free to say that communists are more to
be dreaded than any other secret organ' cation
known. Communism did not originate in this
country, it is an importation from Europe, and its
object is to destroy the rights of property, to set
aside the claims of religion, and to introduce the
rule of the mob. It is made up of all the dissatis
fied, and revolutionary members of sucitty, whose
object is to overthrow the present state of things
in government and religion. Communism is no
new thing. This party has been in existence in
France, England, Germany, and some other
European States ever since 1839. It revealed its
true character in all its frightful proportions in
Paris, during the late Franco-Prussian war. But
they never made a formal proclamation of their
principles until 1869. When "the alliance declare;
itself Atheistic, it seeks the abolition of worship,
the substitution of science for faith, of human
nature for Divine justice, and the abolition of
marriages, it demands above all, the abolition of
inheritance, and that capital shall be at the dis
position only of workers. Fur us the red flag is
the symbol of universal human love." And their
actions ever since publishing this platform proves
that they are true to their orignal purpose, and
just like these Greenbackers are doing here, by
appealing to the prejudices and wants of the poor
working people of Europe, they gradually brought
the Trades-unions throughout the European
country more or less into their favi.r, and thus be
same so strong that the European government
found It necessary to take active measures to sup
press, or at least hold this secret organization in
check. And now, finding their powers more or less
restaicted in Europe, they turn to the United States
as a more fruitful field of operation. And here
they at once find a congenial element in this
National Greenback Labor-reform party. All fault
finders too.
The first International, or Communist, Congress
met in Geneva, Switzerland in 1866, and in 1867
two sections of the International society were es
tablished in the United States, ana in 1872 its
headquarters were transferred from London to
New York. Since that time the organization has
grown rapidly, especially in our large cities and
towns where there is a large foreign population.
And we are free to say that the communists by
forming an alliance with Trades-Unions in this
country have been a fruitful source of evil by in
stigating strikes, and mobs, to the great injury of
others, and no benefit to themselves. We believe
that our country was never cursed with a worse
organization than communists. It is the sum of
all villanies. We have given this history of com
munists so that honest men may be on their guard.
Remember "evil communications corrupt good
manners." The National, Greenback Labor-re
form party deny having any alliance with com
munists. Many of its members may be honest in
saying so, but this does not disprove the fact.—
There is nothing congenial in either the Republi
can or Democratic party for this communistic
element, while this National Labor-reform party
suits them to perfection. Now, to prove this fact
we need only refer you to the terrible outbreaks in
Pittsburgh and other places last July. Many
men who are favorable to this labor-reform party
took a part in that strike from honest motives,
merely that their wages might be continued at the
present rates without any design of injuring eithez
person or property. But when the destruction of
property commenced these honest men stood back
astonished. They discovered they were in com
pany with a rabble capable of committing any
degree of crime known to man. Here was com
munism carried to perfection. Here is the great
danger of a political party forming an alliance
with communists. They are gradually brought
more or less under their influence, and made bit
terly hostile to our government without ever know
that they are thus led along by a foreign power,
and an enemy of our government.
In conclusion, we would say to Republicans,
one and all, stick to your party. Let us at our
coming delegate meeting put in nomination a good
ticket, composed of good. honest, efficient men,
and then support the entire ticket. Perhaps you
feel that you have not been treated right by the
party; have failed to get some position that you
justly claimed. This may be true; we know from
experience that it is hard to be woutded in the
house of our friends. Still this is no reason that
you should leave the party; this is only a fault in
men. The principles of the party are good, and
all we want is good, efficient men to carry them
out. And if it is an office you want your chances
are much poorer in the National Greenback party,
for nearly all its members are wanting offices. And
as far as the poor laboring class is concerned we
venture the assertion, without the fear of success
ful contradition, that the Republican party has
done more for the poor laboring class of men than
any other party ever in power, and while the party
may have its corruptions, as all other parties in
power have had, yet the principles of the Republi
can party are such that they must succeed if
properly oarried out, while National Greenback,
Labor-reform and all other new departures will go
where the owl hoots and the bats wing their nightly
rounds. JUSTICE.
Why is It ?
The truths of science and progressive
thought have always been compelled to batter
down the bulwarks of prejudice and disbelief,
or remain forever unknown. Why is it that
people are so reluctant to receive facts that
relate directly to the phenomena of their own
existence? Astronomers, upon discovering a
star, assign it a place at once, and it is forever
4xed, The rule by which a mathematical
problem is once solved becomes forever an
axiom ; but no matter how clearly the princi
ples whieli govern health and sickness be
demonstrated, some refuse to believe. Dr.
Pierce's Family Medicines which are now so
generally used, and deservedly were, in their
early days, very reluctantly received by the
people. To-day, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery has outrivaled the old time sarsa
parillas, his Pellets are in general use in place
of the coarse, huge, drastic pills formerly so
much employed, while the sales of his Dr.
Sage's Catarrh Remedy and his Favorite
Prescription are enormous. Where the skin
is sallow and covered with blotches and
pimples, or where there are scrofulous swell
ings and affections, a few bottles of his Golden
Medical Discovery will effect an entire cure.
If you feel dull, drowsy, debilitated, hays
sallow color of skin. or yellowish brown spots
on face or body, frequent headache or dizzi
ness, bad taste in mouth, internal heat or
chills alternated with hot flushes, low spirts
and gloomy forebodings, irregular appetite,
and tongue coated, you are suffering from
Torpid Liver, or "Billiousness." In many cases
of "Liver Complaint" olly part of these symp
toms are experienced. As a remedy for all
such cases, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis.
covery has no equal, as it effects perfect cures
leaving the liver strengthened and healthy.
Debilitated females who have undergone all
the tortures of caustic and -the knife, and yet
suffer with those peculiar dragging-down
sensations and weaknesses, can have gnaran•
teed to them prompt and positive relief by

The Laboratory of the System.
The stomach is the laboratory of the system
in which certain mysterious processes are
constantly going on. These result in the
production of that wonderful vivifying agent
the blood, which in a state of health rushes
laden with the elements of vitality to the
remotest parts of the system. But when the
stomach is:semi•paralyzed by dyspepsia, blood
manufacture ;s carried on imperfectly, the
circulation grows thin and sluggish, and the
system suffers in consequence. Moreover,
indigestion reacts upon the liver and bowels,
rendering the first sluggish and the latter
constipated. The brain also suffers by sym
pathy, and sick headaches, sleeplessness and
nervous symptoms are engendered. Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters reforms this state of things,
gives permanent tone and regularity to the
stomach and its associate organs, the bowels
and liver, and ensures complete nourishment
and increased vigor of the system. It is the
most popular as well as the most efficient
anti-dyspeptic and tonic in America. [ju.7
FEELS YOUNG AGAIN.—"My mother
was afflicted a long time with Neuralgia and a
dull, heavy. inactive condition of the whole
system ; headache, nervous prostration, and
was almost helpless. No physicians or medi
cines did her any good. Three months ago
she began to use Hop Bitters, with such good
effect that she seems and feels young again,
although over 70 years old. We think there
is no other medicine fit to use in the family."
