I , The nomination of this man ornbr, by the Radicals, is on insult to every citizen who feels an affection for thp honor ond welfare of, oar/onco pfoud old State. Had the corruptionists or the Ring named the notorious windier, Evans, himself, it would have been more manly in them. That Hartranfl was an accomplice of Evans In swindling the State io' ihe tune of aome three or four hundred thousand dollars, is made clear by the report of the joint cSnitnirtbe'of J the tvto'Honses of the Statp Legislature, which report wo ipublished,.lasi .week;. . By that .re.*, port It is shown, that, Hartranft, who was andda atill. Auditor General,ihad a perfect knowledge of Evans’ transac tions,'and.that for two years hb failed to.caii attention to them.. An exposure, was only finally, made by a subordinate 1 official, whoi was promptly 'removed from office for hls palhs. Had Hhftranft been an 'honest man, caring for the interests of the State, he would have exposed Evans’ first ftauduleht trrtriS-> action, and thus secured the treasury’ against loss. But Hartranft is a prom inent member of the Eihg himself; indeed, ho stands’next to Simon Came ron as an intriguer and'pubUcplunder er. It la an undisputed fact that every “ rooster” and “ pincher” belonging to the. Legislative Ring, favored’ his nomination. The repeaters, ballot-box staffers, gamblers and thieves of Phila delphia—those men who counted Coil. M’Ciure but and Gray In as State Sena tor—were, to a man, the loud champi ons of Hartranft,, They know Hartranfl, and hepce their zeal for him. The solfd men of the Republican party—the men of character add brains—Were Just as unanimous for the nomination of Hon. Wipthrop W, Ketcham, who,is a,man. of sterling worth and whose record is unblemished. But the Treasury Ring, with Cameron as its -leader, was too powerful for the good men who favored Ketcham, and the friends of the latter were floored mercilessly. . . But enough. During the campaign it will be our duty to refer frequently to the villainous ticket of tho Treasury Ring, and we shall do so without flinching. In the meantime we call attention to the three extracts we pub lish below from throe of the . most | Influential Republican papers in the State; The tone of these articles Is in dicative of the feelings of the Ketcham’ men. It is said that many other 1 Republican papers are’ ready to" de- I nounce and wlll denounce the Radical [ State ticket. But to the extracts (From the Lancaster SrprtM,J Those who have, been careful readers of the Express for the past two years; or, xinbe it has called public attention to the reckless and criminal manner in which our State -finances, have been managed, need scarcely be informed that 'neither the proceedings nor the results of the Republican State Conven tion meet our approval or have any claim upon our support. The'conven tion, so far as its relation to 'either the wishes or the interests pf the people at large are concerned, was a broad farce.; Whoever saw its equal, and. we hope ,we may never.look upon its.llkeagaln. It was more like a reification meeting, called to endorse what had already beep ■ agreed upon in a caucus called by the treasury ring of Mackey,; Hartranftd Co. . ■- . The nomination of Hnrtranft, known io be a member of a ring .which slinks in the nostrils of all honest men, him self under a cloud of suspicion iri ctin 1 nection with the Rvans fraud, was bad enough, and of itselfa greater load than any party would bq able to carry, hut |t Was completely supplemented by the nomination of Senator Allen, whose principle distinction was his champion ship of that gigantic fraud khown as the “ Nine Million Steal," and which was thoroughly, ventilated in the Be-, pubiicon newspapers of Lancaster at the time that for robbing the treasury was attempted. To ask the readers of the Eepress to' support a ticket like this, and nominated under snch auspices, would be a gross and uti : fiardonubie insult. We do not believe t can be elected, and the best reason in' the world which can be given for this opinion, to. all honest men, is that it does not deserve to be. The selection of candidates for dele gates at large to the constitutional con vention, which ought never to have bean assumed by a partisan convention was done by a packed committeoagafnst the earnest remonstrances of a powerful minority, to whom even the right of discussion was denied by the. prompt application of the gag wielded by a pliant tool in the chair. The republican party cannot carry such loads as, these and survive. The time has now come to call a “halt”, along ;the Hue, if the rank and. file would save it from failing headlong In to the fearful ‘‘slough of despond” to which the leaders are hurrying it. We know that the creatures of the ring will resort to the scare-crow of the over ‘shadowing imp >rtance of the presiden tial election, but this is an old and fa miliar device of the leaders to cover u[i their indefensible acts which people n6w well understand. If the men who controlled the Harrisburg convention had been really solicitous of the success of the presidential ticket they would never have placed such an incubus up on (he party as the ticket againt which' we how enter our solemn protest. ' [From tbs Philadelphia xv«a.J' General John F. Hartranft is tbe Re [ publican nominee for . Governor of Pennsylvania. We- believe it to bo a most inauspicious selection, it sad open ingjof what promises to be a' most exciting and .difficult campaign. Made qot'in the spirit of harmony in the par-, .ty or of the interests of the State, but simply to gratify a “ ring” which has taken possession of the Republican or ganization of the State and will lead us.to inevitable defeat in the city next fall unless sternly checked' beforehand, ,it ivill need a superhuman effort to elect Bplrlrahft. , The selection of delegates to the na tfonal convention and tbe State consti tutional convention, is poor, and calls for nopruiso. A little fojiven of wisdom, integrity and ability is' infosed, but It doe» not leaven the whole lump. 'Serai' of the names to the first are those of good Republicans and bonest men.and one,or.ittp.oato of another class.
