from Ihe earnings of the peoplo, whilst
tho Stato debt which, on Deo. lst,18U0,
was less than tbirty-olght millions,
stood on Dec. 1st, 1870, at over thirty
one millions. Seven millions of debt
hits been paid nnd moro thnn forty
three millions remain to bo accounted
for. licckless expenditure, extrava
gance in administration and misappro
priution of assets are the several heads
under which this money can bo found.
It is for thoso in poaror to show clean

In this contest it is otir business to

. This issuo directly involves tho man.

against petty stealing, ombezzlemcht
or robbery. , In its puro udininistra

place the control of this department
in tho hands of a weak or corrupt
man, or give tho vast revenues of the
Commonwealth into the keeping of
ono who from personal intorest or po
litical sympathy serves anil oboys thoso
who make the treasury a soureo of

sad lessons of tho present hour recur
in rapid succession. Murn integrity,
watchful vigilance, fidelity of tho lof
tiest character, and implicit obedience
to tho luw os written, should charac
terise tho incumbont of this import

oi these vital qualifications have been
found wauling in thoso who now
iimnano and control our finance's.
We chargo that tho ftcpublican candidate-
fur this office is connected,
by personal interest and political
sympathy, with that ring of the Re

treasury and mismanages its finances.
We chargo thut thone who ad

their oaths to support tho Constitu
tion, havo violated a plain statute and
have misapplied tho assets of the Com

Theso aro grave charges. Lot us
seo tho prools. under mo nisi Jem
ocratic Slato administration, the Con
stitution wns amended by a provision
that looked lo the irradunl but certain
payment of tho Slato debt : by tho
Constitution ilsolf, certain assets and
revenues belonging lo tlio Plate were
devoted to lhat nurpnso, and itordered
tho legislature of 185H to soloct and
apply othor resources In tho same im
portant end; and tho Constitution, in
Section i of Article XI. expressly or
dered that none of these resource! should
be. used or applied otherwise than in ex

Statu Treasurer each wears that lie
will support the Constitution of this

Upon Iho men who now run the

' "TflKM $200,000."
Tho Kvana job is too recent and too
plain in Us glaring depravity to need
detailed explanation. That $291,000
of tho people's money is now nnd has
been for months pnst in tho hands of
an employe-, pet or partner ol Male
officials, or in the hands ot those oil!
cials themselves, is a fact that the' do
not attempt to deny. 'X lint they re
fuse to account for or pay it over, is
cqunlly clear. That no legal right or
claim or shadow of clnim exists for
ili ie cenoially admtttail . That, un
til within two months neither llieSlute
Trcnsttrer, the Auditor General nor
the Governor nl tempted to secure the
money to Iho treasury, is undeniable,
and is not denied . .
Can any good reason begivon for tho
absolute silonco of tho Auditor (ioner

years, In regard lo the doings of this
man hvans, whom they and their pn
litical ossociatos entrust with power
over millirins of the money of tho

lias the Stato Treasurer been so lenient
with this largo publio debtor? Aro

incompetent for their pluccsf Why
is it that ci'i'iV process is issuod, with
tardy ond leisure liko alacrity, nnd the
debtor warned beforo tho process
reaches tho Sheriff? Why is such s
process taken nt till ? Is it lhat the
State mar compel him to tsko the in
solvent laws and slio pay the costs?
Is it that, in tho tedious windings of
"Ihe laws delays," public opinion may
be blunted and dulled by lapse of time
and the debtor and his accomplice
both go freo? Is it that tho "short,
shurp nnd decisive remedy of a war-
ran l and indictment for the palpable
crime would disvloso to Ino wronged
people tho names nnd plares of thoso
who have shared the plunder and who
planned' the robbery? Why is the
man who has told the people of the
wrong done them romoved from the
plnco lhat earns n livelihood lor him
self nnd family? 'If his statements

tho truth ispntentj the job complete:
the ring has robbed the treasury, ami

vvuat no we oain f
In the success of the Democracy we
find the solution of two questions of
s!'4 TEEMS $2 por annunii in Advance;
gravo importance; tho repeal of that
practical denial or the capacity or tne
pooplo of Philadelphia for self govern
ment, embodied in tho registry low
for that city, and the settlement of a
congressional apportionment just to
both parties and euiiitublo in all its
dotnils. Beside these, wo win tho van
tago ground fur the great battlo of
l7a, in which we chooso a Govcinor
and a President. Victorious now, we
aro inspired wilh courage and with
hope, and the battle will bo easily won
against a dosnondenl and demoralized
loo: detcalcd now, we face an uphill
contest wilh tho prostige of success
against us. I speak plainly, for nil
thinking mon rocognizo tho truth of
tlieso practical propositions, nnd I seek
to arotiso you to earnestness, to oner
cy, to determined work to win this
tight.
CAN WE OOVERN OURSELVES ? THE DE
NIAL Or THE AMERICAN PRINCIPLE
THE IXPAMOl'S REOISTRT LAW.
Tho registry law under which you
vote commits no wrong upon your
people : it loaves to vou the froo choice
of your election officers in tho man
ner that ancient usage nnd familiur
statutes point out. Tho pooplo with
the ballot select their judges am in
spectors of elections, tho parly that
preponderates is entitled to tho major
ity, tho fewer-in numbers to the mi
norily upon the board. This has come
to bo recognized as a fundamental
privilcgo among us, and the poople of
llio Mate would submit in no law that
would tako from llicm tho right tn
chooso theso officers, and their inher
ent sonso of justice grants to tho mi
nority their plain richtof representn
tion upon theso boards. This is not
the inw in tho great city of I'hilade
phia.- Tlio people there havo no right
to voto for election officers. They are
dielranchiscd, nnd their power is vest
cd in n board of aldermen elected for
an entirely different purpose, litre
tho people elect iho assessors nnd
they make ont tho registry list and
place upon it the names of tho voters.
There, iho board of nldermon appoint
tho men to ninko out the registry lists
and invariubly:ppoint t wo Republicans
ana ono Democrat. Here, tho Demo
crnts elect a Democratic assessor, in
a Democrat io district. Thrrt, the
board nnnoint two Ilenublicans and
ono Democrat in every district, wheth
er Itcpublicnu or Democratic, and the
minority controls. Lnder tho dicta
tion of corrupt and dosperato men
this power bus grown to bo a most
frnillul sourco ol impurity m lite elec
tions of Philadelphia. Men aro pp
pointed us canvassers who know no
law nnd rocognizo no system of mor
als, but the snccc.s of their party and
tho attainment of their own selfish
ends and those of their designing
leaders. They without hesitation
strike from tho registry lists the names
of voters who arc duly qualified, and
add thereto tho names of thoso who
havo no shadow of right to voto.
iVo legal power exists to prevent these
infamous wrongs. Ono membor of the
legislature holds his placo because iho
numos of ono hundred and forty eight
lojml voters of his district were struck
from tlio registry without authority of
law nnd lor purely partisan purposes.
Jere, in a Democratic district, yon
elect tbo judge nnd one of tho inspec
tors, und tho Republicans elect the
Other. There, the board of nldermon
select llio election officers in every dis
trict, and invariably, choose tho men
who do llio bidding and suit the pur
poses of the liepublienn majority of
ino uourjs, anu in mo selection oi oi
ficors the board of alderman take es
pecial care to chooso astute and un
scrupulous Republicans who will do
the bidding of their party friends and
almost invariably selectillitcrato,weak
or corruptible men as Democratic clec
tion oflicors.' In many cases, indeed,
they violuto the plain loiter of the luw
by appointing Republicans instead of
Democrats. One of the oflicors ol Iho
Republican Slate convention was a
man who had been appointed nnd lind
nctod ns a ''Democratic'' election offi
cer at the Inst election ! By : h 1 selec
tion of shrewd and unscrupulous men
upon one sido and of incompetent or
corruptible men upon tho other the
door to fraud nnd wrong is widely
opened and tho purily of tho ballot is
utterly destroyed. Such has now come
to ho "tho ense in Iho city of Philadel
phia: and tlie voico of" her people is
stifled by Iho wiles and machinations
of lawless men, acting under the forms
of an unjust statute. Canvass lists
nro "tloplored j" ballot-boxes are stuff
ed ; returns aro altered, forged nnd
manipulated, and fraud and violence
in llieir worst forms aro resorted to in
order to maintain tho political supre
macy of dcsporule and evil men.
Tho true remedy for theso wrongs
oonniets in restoring to tho peoplo the
rights tnkon from litem nnd In making
the gonrrn) law applicable to Ihe city
of Philadelphia.
In tho rcconl session of tho legisla
ture wo sought to amend this luw by
allowing tho votes to bo counted in
iho presence of the judges of the courts,
bv civiim tho courts iho power to put
on nnmes lcfl off tho tho registry by
mislaka or fraud and by giving tlio
minority of tho board of aldermen the
riirlit to select their duo proportion of
election officers for ench election dis
trict. . Under the dictulion of the mon
who nro now upon tho ticket in Phil
uilclphiu. this was rcfusod by iho Re
publican Houso of Representatives,
and wo now como to the pooplo to do
m a nd tho repotil of this unjust law.
Its gross injustico is so patent that
nearly every Repnblieou paper in
Philadelphia has condoinned it, but it
serves their purposes of fraud and false
counting. So reckless nnd bold have
theso men becomo thnt they contemn
public opinion and openly proclaim
thoir intention to count themselves in.
They rockon without thoir host ii so
daring a gamo bo attempted. Tho De
mocracy of Philadelphia ore aroused
and deiorminod, ond with publio sen
timent upon their side, they will do
what is necessary to socuro a fttir
couuL We have tho votoa ami we
have tho physical powor of tho oily,
ns well as its moral support nnd popu
lar voico, and wo would bo worse than
fouls lo permit a gang of desporato
knaves to count us out- Fraud, false
i . . ; l a
counting, forgery of returns, , rloty
bloodshed and mtiruor, an ana racu in
turn, havo been perpetrated ut the;
command of tho lawless men who run
tho Republican orimiiir.utioii in that
city, but publio pntionco Is at lust ex
hutislcd and thoso who rcspocl order
and love law aro upon our sido and
will give us their support and oncuur-
sgcmonl in thoir preservation. In thd
periorrnance ol a just act or in too
prevention of a cross wronir, publio
opinion sanctifies the means employed,
lo repeal this vilo law, nnd civs
thoso ticonlo the rlniits I lint mil nos-.
soss, will be ono of the first fruits of"
the vic'siry lo which wo invito you'.
To ro endorse this fundamental prin
ciple and lo vindicuto tho right of tho
peoplo to govern llicnisolvcs in every
locality, will bo tm achievement that
will reflect honor upon nil who nid in
its accomplishment.
THE CONQRESSIONAl.'OERRY.'UA.NOErl.
Tho strugglo of last session for a just
Icuislalivo apportionment warns us
that wo will bo mercilessly treated by
our antagonists in tbo event of their '
success, in tho mutter of a Congres
sional apportionment, and to thoso
who aspiro to Conirrcssiotinl honors,
or lovo fair play, this adds an addi
tional argument tor zeal in the oontosl.
Under the iiilumous Korrymander .
of 1802, we hnve been disfranchised
and outraged. Its practical workings
during tho lust four torins, when re
duced to an avoruira, demonstrate
that it required 35,8U5 voles to elct la
Democratic Congressman, whilst 17,'
800 votes were enough to elect a Re
publican. Tho difference between tho
parties in tho Whole vote polled at thcte
elections has been but about 31,000
votes, vet during theso four terms
sixty-four Republicans have been sent
to Congross whilst but tliirty ond
Democrats have tilled the place.
Can I adduce uny moro potent or-
gument for ths necossitv for work
lhan thoso figures show ? ' '
NO NEW DEPARTURE.
Our enemy plumes himself npon oar
ullegcd distractions nnd divisions, and
argues hence an easy victory. Let
me tell Is i tn to ' lay not this flatloring
uncliou to his nool." Tho so called
distractions and divisions of tho Dem
ocracy are settled in their owii' ranks
and in thoir own way. Thoy will
bring neither aid nor comfort to tho
enomy. That which they nro pleased
to call "a now departuru'' wo do not
so regard. Thoro is no such ivord in
tho vocabulary of Democracy as aban
donment of principle. Their alleged
"new departure" is a simple rccogni.
lion of tlio doctrino they havo always
muinluined : to obey that which has
tho forms nnd sanction of constituted
authority until relieved from their'
obligation lo obey. by the constitution- '
nl tribunal or Iho power that enacted
Ihe law. In this uc differ now, us wo
always have difTered, with our antago
