lnttur have promised the former and
bis backers that if they would call
convention and nominate a ticket that
they (Pulton und Fulford) would sell
the Jludicul parly to them, and that
thoy would prevent their party frionds
from nominating a county ticket. A
pretty big contract, we should say.
SoMEnoDY Lyinci Loosely. The
murderers of Mrs. Surratt have been

The Mtenl "Ring" Conrrntlotu
Tuesday, the lOlb, was tho duy
fixed for tho assembling of the re
formers in Mass Convention. Tho fol
lowing boroughs snd townvhips wore
unrepresented t Beccaria, Bloom, Bra
dy, Bradford, Boggn, Covington, Do
cutur, Girard, Goshen, Gulich, Uoutx-
dalo, Iluston, Morrii), Oscoola, Fenn,
Union, Walluceton and Woodward.
There wore no dolcgutos olectod In
this borough or Lawrenoo. township,
but u fow citiKens allowed tliomselvos
to be locked up with tho rings tors. It
Will thus bo seen that four-fifths ol
Ibo Democrats wcro unrepresented.
Wo aro unnblo to say what occur
red in Ibo convention, becauso our re
porter was turnod out. Upon learn
ing this wo repaired to tho Court
iloora door, but found it lockod, and
wore informed by tho gnardlun that
we could not got in. This being tho
first publio uHsomhlago In this county
which locked itself up wo were tuken
down considerably, und of course re
tired in good order, wondoring why
a "democrjitic convention" should lock
itself up.
The outside rumor is thut Dr. Pot
ter was nominated for Assembly, Mr.
Savage for SliorilT, Mr. Wise for
Treasurer and Mr. Shoff for Commis
sioner : and for District Attorney,
Auditor, Jury Commissioner and Cor
oner, Ibo Convention udoptcd our
nominees. Tho first three were can
didales at tho luto primary, and prom
ised to ubido that decision. Mr. Shoff
is a new man. Mr. Tor.cr was thrown
overboard, becauso to have nominated
him (ho resides in tho satno neigh
borhood as Messrs. Surngo and Wise)
would have beon planting tho candi
dntes loo thick, and made the ring too
small. To havo nominated for tho
three bost offices mon from C'host.Jor-
dun and Now Washington, which to-
golher only polled 215 Democratic
votes last October, would huvo beon a
worse job than to nominate all in
Clearfield and Lawrenco, where 5:
were polled..
If tho primary election was a fraud,
and "not binding on any one," why
was hulf the ticket adopted and tho
other half discarded ? We suspect
that hud Mr. Suvago boco nominated
not a word alout frauds would havo
boon uttered by those reformers
Hence, becauso Mr. Savuge was not
nominated for Shoriff, a small ring of
Detuocruts at rtew Washington and
similar ring of Kudiculs ut Curwons
villa have undertaken to diclato to
both Democrats and Radicals who
they shull support for county officers
this full. And theso, too, are tho sumo
men who declaim so loudly and loitrn
edly about tho "'Court House .Ring."
If thoru is such a ring It is not run
oy H'juicais, anynow. It lias novor
combined with mon who wanted to
imprison and cvon bang Democrats a
fow years ago.
V e wero promised a copy of the
proceedings of the Convention, but up
to 10 o'clock this, Suturday night, it
has not came to bund. Wo should
liko very much to gel tho names of
those now-depurturiets upon the rec
ord, and if we fnil to secure them it
will be no fault of ours.

It is well known that for ovor twenty
years Muasaciiusolts snd other New

Mnyor of tho city of Boston, (now
tho Democratio candiduto for Gov
ernor of MassaohuseU,) In his letter
of acceptance, in alluding to tho pro

says :

cannot get ftvo Democrats in his town

An old Domocrat in tho uppor end
of tho county, in a private letter to us
giving so mo of the details of the New
Washington ring, remurks, also, that
" one of their complaints is that the
" Commissionors'oltlcols bceomingtoo
exponsivo, und thoy think there
' ought to bo a change" AVe do not
comnrehond exactly what bo moans
by the exponscs in the Commissioners
'olllco, but wo will tuko tho most lib
eral view of tho cobo, giving tho ob-
octor nil tho advantages possible.
We will tuko Commissioners, Clerk
and Auditors' wagoB for three years
proviotts to the passago of tho ltegls
lory luw, and for three yours sinco,
viz : The exponscs in 18G7, 1808 and
18C0 woro 68,413, or about $2,804 por
year. Iu 187U, 1871 and 1872 moy
woro 7,10U, or Jli.iiOU por ycur.
Being a saving to tho tax payers of
ovor $1,300 in the lust three years.
And this, too, while tho new Prison
was being built, whon tho Board was
often compelled to meet to look after
duties pertaining to itsoroclion. And
again, tho labors imposod upon that
offico is nearly double since 1870 to
what it was previous to tho passage
of tho .Registry law, and notwith
standing those additional labors the
Board has curtailed the annual ex
nouses Doiwcen lour anu nvo uunarca
dollars ouch year.
"1 ho Board is getting too expen
sive. ell, pooplo had better nol
growl until they have something lo
growl about. This is not all. One ol
the. leading roformors Smoad was
Commissioner when it was costing
tho tax-payors near $500 a year more
than now. Why did ho not reform
matters then ? A little moro zeal
then and less now would smack more
iko consistency, if nothing better.
If the New Washington ring has
any real grievances relating lo ihe
assessment ot taxes or public expendi
tures, why not lay them beforo tho
Board of Commissioners, who have
full control over tho subject, instead
of our political enemies, wboso record
for publio plundor is enormous, if tho
books and records at Iiarrisburg, kept
by themselves, tell tho truth. A
party or ring which systematically
robs both the State and Nation will
nol play an honest gamo in counly
affairs. . Besides, thero aro very few
reformers to be found lo tho opposi
tion party which now shields and de
fends regiments of rascals.
f Mind Vrtak.
Tho suspension of that "eminent
Christian bunker," Jay Cooke, wus nol
unlocked for by us. He has beon a
government pet for ten years, and
toslercd, fed and stuffed on greenbacks
un'.jl ho has "busted," and the only
misfortune is that scores of other
bankers who were banking upon their
own capital are ruined by bis defalca
tion. His brother, who was running
the District of Columbia in tho shape
oi Govorn-jr.rcsigning two wouks ago,
was ominous that thore was some
thing "rotten in Denmark." Tho
position was too fat an ouo to surren
der voluntarily. Too many bunks,
too many $300,000 bouses and too
much Nortborn Pacific ruilroad, and
no money of his own, is what wus the
matter. A huge effort will bo mado
to resurrect this firm, tut wo fear so
many widows and orphans bavo beon
robbed that even nnnthor syndicate or
two cunuot restore Jay Cooke & Co.
We notice that the big dinner which
was lo havo been eaten by tho Cookes
and their toadies at Washington the
day after tho smash, has been indefi
nitely postponed. This is modest at
least.
The following view of tho matter is
taken by tho New York Herald l
Tho suspension of the Cookes, who
woro highly fuvpred by the govern
ment and the financial pets of llio ad
ministration, and who had mado many
millions in tho course of a few years
through the favor of ibo Treasury
Department, ought to no a lenson lo
the iovornmotit. Instead of squan
dering money on speculative agents,
who have litllo power or credit except
that which their connection with tho
Truasury gives them, tho government
should munage it own financial trans
action. Aitsonrt other evils resullini;
from tho war is lliut of eiirichinir a low
favorites at the expense of tho Treas
ury and the people. We seo tho con
setiuonce of thus creating millionaire
parvenut by tho government. Thero
is no reason to apprehend any serious
effect from tho Cooke suspension, or
from the low other suspensions, or lull
tires thut may arise in consequence of
that, to tho businoss. or interest of the
country gonerally. The excitement,
probubly, will soon subside, leaving
only a tew wrocks of speculators and
stockjobbinir firms, ll is the lull! and
sensation ol a day or so. The t urrenu
of trade will How on smoothly, and
our merchant, traders and great pro
ducing popiilution may smile at the
tronzy ol tho hour in Wull street.
Tho country is too prosperous and
wealthy to ho seriously disturbed by
tho collapse of a fow speculators or
opliomcrul banking institutions.
A Good Text. Tho iruo policy of
the Democratio party is clearly set
forth in the idea thut it will adhoro
slrii ly to its own organization, main
tain its discipline, and weleomo all
recruits who ure willing to act with
it from honest public m.ilivos. No
moro coalitions, should be ono of our
mottoes. Let every shtideundshadow
of opinion oi'L'anise, if ll seems uood
to thoso who bold r-idc-triick views to
do so, but tho Democratic party must
act in one mass in order lo securo a
triumph which will enure to tho well
being of all. If dissatisfied Uopubli
cans nro nol so fur dissutisfiud as thai
their pulh of duty loads them into tho
true political fold, wo are sorry for
them. Ihey must chuoso between
the good and the evil, and if they ro
solve to stick to what thoy know to
bo evil, simply because their montal
visit)")- is so dnrkonod by prejudice
thut they cannot as yet soo the truth,
it is possibly more their misfurluno
than thoir limit.

Carpenter 1gain
Soon after tho Xw York Tribune
exposed tho dobuuehcry and total de
pravity of Senator Carpenter, the loyal
anob organs flow into a passion and
ordered Carpenter to prosecuta the
editors for libel. Tho Tribune coun
ters on Carpenter and his defenders in
this way :
"It is not noeoHKfiry to dwell upon
tho ppeciul cam iu hand. Our ohjuct
is answered in directing the attention
of the people to tho unclean life of the
unf iui ut hut unprincipled muii who
occupies the chair of tho United Stuto
benuto, and who from his hih posi i
tion should bo an example to iheyottth
of tho land. The politics of tho coun
try nood elcansinir and purifying.
The politicians wno debauch public
sentiment und defy publio opinion,
who mock at virtue, scout ull consid
orations of honeniy or honor, and
flaunt their vices iu tho nation's face,
need lo bo hold up to public gaze and
reprobation. Under cover ot loyalty
to a righteous cause, rapacity, lut
and greed must havo had lull swuy lor
yours, and the result is tho country is
honey coin bud with all manner of cor
ruption. In such a stale of things the
only way of escape is to lift the vail
and show the honcHt, deccnt.triith-loving

ncr of men iheir rulers are. 'I hat Is

Ami loall lbs supernervleeublorgutis
(which, we suspect have run before

are calling for a libel prosecution, we
have only to say, in ihe words of the

is Mich that ho does tho Senato no dis.
