CLEARFIELD, l'A.
WEDNESDAY MORNING, JI NK 3, 1874.
OFFICE HEMOVEI).
The offloa of tb Ci.nmriii.D Ripi ju.ica will
hereafter bo in Pie's Opera Houso, on .Market
trust, between Seoond end Third. The business
offio. will b. found to tb. left of I ho main en.
trance, on (lie second floor, where ell our old tnd
now patrons are Invited to oall. The press and
composing roomi are on the third floor.
Washington flunkoyism lias not got
over tbo Grant wedding yot. Somo
of tbo fumily are still on a drunk, al
though a fortnight has olapsod.
Freb Again. The editor of tho
Huntingdon Globe, aflcr Buffering an
impriBonmont of forty days and forty
nights, for tolling tho truth about a
Doctor, was released on "Decoration
day."
It would indeed bo a great joke on
Eodicalism, as represented by Morion,
Cameron & Co., if it had caught a sec
ond Andy Johnson, in tho person oi
"the government," on tho currency
and civil rights question. It look so.
Rather Cool. For Secrolary Rich
ardson to ask his subordinate lianficld
to resign his post in tho Treasury at
Washington, when tbo worthy Socro
tary is proven to be tho most incom
petent, if not the most corrupt, man
about tho department.
Too Bad. It is no wonder we havo
"tight timos," when Congressmen tell
us that such political snoak Ihicvos ns
Ben Butlcr'b man Friday Sauborn
pocketed (213,000 in thrco years, for
discharging tho duties of an office an
known to the law, and through the
Connivance of the Secretary of tho
Treasury.
Tho death of Mr. Thomson, Tresi
dont of the Pennsylvania railroad, has
caused quite, a commotion among the
officials and stock-holders of that road,
as to who should be eloctcd bis suc
cessor. Wo hope tho personal policy
of tho road.will bo abandoned for the
public good, whoever may succeed to
the position indicatod.
Wx Hope it's True. Although tho
Civil Bights bill passed tho Sonato on
"high tido," It scorns that Gen. Grant
has hinted to somebody, that if tho
bill was pressed upon the IIouso and
passed in its present shape, that bo
would be compelled to treat it as be
had the currency bill veto it. This
information, whether true or fulse.lms
Staggered all loyaldom.
A Fair "Beast." Bon Butler, on
Thursday last, reported acd bad a bill
passed through Congress romoving the
disabilities of Baphaol Sommcs, the
commander of tho Confederatosteamcr
Alabama. Next to Jefferson Davis,
no man in tho Confederate eorvico
did more real harm than "Commodore"
Semmes. Yet he is pardoned to-dsy
by the same men who sought to gib
bet him a few years ago I
"Gone Up." Two negroes and ono
white follow composed tho Board of
County, Commissioners of Barnwell
county, South Carolina. Tho genllo
men (!) wore arrested, about thrco
months ago, for applying the public
funds of the district to their privato
use. Last weok they wore convicted
of evorj chargo, and aro now in the
ponitentiary. When tho Governor
Moses gots there, ho will have his
duos, too, and four-fifths of all tho
officers in that awfully robbed .State
should bo in tho same quarters.
Overthrow. Tho negroes, carpet
baggors and scaliwags have beld su
preme control of tho cities of Rich
mond and Petersburg, Virginia, ever
since tho Confederate troops aban
doned their works. But a chango
seems to have como over tho minds of
tho tax-poycrson the 20th ult. Tho
election for Mayor and othor municipal
officers came off on that day, and re
sulted in a tromondous Democratic
victory in both cities. Tho corrup
tionists elected less than one-third of
thoir ticket, while the taxpayers Lava
over a two-thirds vote in tbe city coun
cils, and will of course hoist tho rob
bers in short meter stylo.
A Godless Court. A fortnight ago,
a number of female and malo crusaders
wore arrostcd by tho municipal au
thorities of Pittsburgh, for disturbing
tho public peace Tho valorous ladies
and modest goniluincn refused to give
bail, and wero consequently trans
formed ir.to martyrs, by allowing them
selves to bo imprisoned. Tho result
was a habeas corpus, and tho parties
woro taken into Court and a hearing
was bad before J udgo fitowo, who, for
tho sake of tbe ladies, released tho
prisoners. This greatly elated tho
crusadors, and thoy at onco proposed
to hold a prayer meeting in tho court
room, returning thanks to God and
tho court for their deliverance. His
honor, being informod of what was
contomplatcd, informed tho partlos
that if they opened a prayer mooting
in the court room be would have every
ono of them sent to prison for "Con
tempt of Court." This hint from his
honor nonplused tho ladius and thoir
mole allies, who at onco gathered
thomsolvcs up and made for the Moth
ddist churoh Whore they organieod a
monstor prayer mooting, and ettvo tho
municipal authorities and the liquor
intnrost "particular josso. ,
District and County Election.
Thoro is to bo oleotod this fall a
Mombor of Congross, a Sonator for
two years, a Boprcsontntivo, u District
Judgo (additional), a County Auditor
for one year and a County Commis
sioner for one year. Tho county Is
ontitlod to a Representative, wboso
torm la for two years.
Thoro aro somo of tho opinion that
tho Commissioner Is to bo choson for
two years. This is rt mistake. Soo-
lion twenty-eight of tho Bchodulo of
tho Constitution provides that tuo
terra of tlx County Commissioners
and County Auditors, chosen prior to
187G, "which shall not havo expirod
before tbo first -Monday of 1870, shall
expiro on that day." Ilonoo, tho term
of tho Commissioner oleotod this fall
will, with all others then in ofllco, ex
piro on tho first of January, 1870, and
in tho full of 1875 thrco Commissioners
and threo Auditors will imvo to bo
elocted.
It will bo scon that tho county elec
tion partakes of tho samo vory impor
tant features that characterize tho
State eloction, and incites to tho high
est aim and most cnergotio efforts.
Whilo domanding tho best men on tho
Stato tickot, let us bo careful, follow
cilizons, that wo make our actions at
borne correspond with what wo nek of
tho Stato convention, and sco to it
that our tickot is made up of the best
men wo can got. Tho success of tho
Stato tickot rests greatly upon tho
harmony that provails in tho rospeo
tivo counties, and if wo do our duty as
woll as wo would havo thorn do theirs
there will bo no reason to complain.
JTeutral lletrs.
Tho editor of tbo Ronovo Record
publishes a noutrol paper, but remarks
as thoro is no "turkey" for tho Ro
publicans, in tho way our districts have
boon formed, it would bo just and
proper to designate whom the Demo
crats should nominate, and ho hopes
that his suggcstions'will not provo of
fensive to the Democrats, as ho will
propose none but first class men for
tho sov oral positions, viz :
"For CongrcM, Hon. L. A. Mackoy, of Lock
Haven, who will very likely be the choice of all
the oountiei In this Congressional district, with
out opposition. For Associate Law Judge, Judge
Orris, of Centre county, will be tbe ehoice. Clear
field will eome in then for State Senator and Hon.
Win. A. Wallace, our present representative, will
likolj reoeire a renomination.
Tho third section of this ticket we
accept without hesitation. What Mr.
Wallace's foclings aro npon tho sub
ject, wo know not. But wo have it
from tho lips of threo-fourths of his
Democratic colleagues in tho Senate,
besides numbors of leading Democrats
all over the Stato that his roturn
to the Senate for at least tho fractional
term of two years is very dosirablo, so
as to onablo him to complete tbo huge
work he undertook last session, of ad
justing tho corporate and business in
terests of the State to tho now Con
stitution. Even Radical Senators, who love
tho Stato moro than thoir party, and
prefer general to special legislation
and nro opposod to corruption, ask for
Mr. Wallaco's roturn, and wo aro
groatly mistaken if a large majority
of both parlies in this Senatorial dis
trict aro not In favor of returning him
to bis scat, which ho has so ably and
honorably fillod for tbo past twolvo
years. Our Democratic frionds in
Centre and Clinton cannot entrust
their legislation to an abler or moro
willing and upright representative
than Mr. Wallace.
One Sensible Negro. Should Con
gross imitate the folly of the United
States Senalo and pass tbo "Civil
Rights Bill," tho common school sys
tem will receive its death blow in
many of tho States. Tbe colorod pas
tor of a Methodist church in Rich
mond lately said to his congrogntion,
before the passage by the Senato of
tbe Civil Bights bill : "The momont
such an enactment appears on tho
statuto books tho public school system
in tho South will receive a blow that
will canso its death, and no power
this side of heaven can diffuso lifo into
its dead carcass. Tbon who will be
tho losers, the blacks or tho whites ?
In Virginia there aro 80,000
colored childron attending tbo public
schools. What will become of them ?''
Again, the rich whites will not pat
ronize tho mixed schools, but will sond
tboir childron elsewhero, whilo tho
poor whites are compollod to go un
educated, or herd with tho African
bloods, whoso parents do not con
tribute ono penny of tbo taxes to dol
lars given by tho parents of the ex-
oludod whiles.
Evidently a Blunder Tho Pitts
burgh Dispatch, ono of tho leading
Radical organs, recently contained the
following:
The amount of corruption in office which hss
been oxposed in this eountry within the last 'fow
years, is astonishing, and every Jay seems lo
add to the scandalous aggregate. Almost every
department of the goreral government Is involved
tn the exposure wmcn has ocen maue, me mw
department being the most recent.
This wholesale impeachment of its
party friends, on tho part of tho editor
of the journal in quoslion, should either
result in much good to tho govern
ment dr a retraction by tho writor.
That what be says is truo, every voter,
except partizan bigots and Radical
officials, admit but it Is highly impo
litio in a political sense, for a news
paper liko tho Dispatch to pormlt so
much truth to appear in its columns
in ono issue. Attornoy-Gonoral Wil
liams should sond his card to this
Pittsburgh editor, and demand "satis
faction," bccaiiBO this wholosalo modo
ol tolling tho truth must woik tho
downfall of the Radical party, i
Congressman D. P. Molish, of New
York, died in a luuatic nssylum at
Washington, on tho 25th ultimo.
e ess e :
Goon. The Worocstor Pros says :
Prof. Scbnoidor composed a grand
march for Miss Nollio. Would it bo
asking too much to request him to
composo ono for Richardson.
"UiW to ran."
Grant's mouth organ, tho Now York
Times, takes most omphalic oxcoplion
to tho policy pursued by its party
leaders toward tho Southern Stales
and tho "colorod brothron." Tho od-
itor snys t "Tho pooplo will not con
sont lo soo olthor an Iroland or a Po
land created on our free soil." "Look
utSoulh Carolina tho vory Governor
of tho Stuto is a thiof, and tho Legis
lature is a gang of thieves." "Is this
a Republican form of Govornmont,
suoh as tho Constitution gunrnntocsto
all tho Stales?" "Wo venture to say
that it is not." Tho sumo must be
said of Louisiana, Mississippi and Ar
kansas." Such aro tho truths, uttered by tho
leading administration organ, aftor
smothering them for five years. Dom
ocratio journalists have often made
similar doclurutions, but thoy wero in
variably scoffed at and pronounced
"copperhead lies." This is not nil.
"Tho govornmont" organ nho gives
"Sambo" a whack on his froo back :
Last weok wo all wltucssed the I'nited Status
Senato engaged for about twenty-four bouts at a
stretch In passing a bill for the boncllt of the ne
aro. roorclv out of a sentimental sort ef dofercnoo
to the wishes of a deceased Senator, Respect for
the dead is inoumbcut on us all but lrgirlntion
should be based on a careful and wlso regard for
the welfare of tho living, not upon "mandates,"
real or fictitious, of the dead. The negro has had
a very fair amount of protection. It is important
before going any further to And out what use he
haa made of the freedom given to him i in what
way he has exercised the vast political powers
with which he has been endowed : what sort of a
government he has helped to set up in the Stales
where he Is most powerful; whether, In short, he
at this moment stands In need of protection from
the white man, or the wbito man stands tn need
of protection from him. If Mr. Katon Intends to
raise these questions, depend upon it he will ob
tain an audience, and he cannot be suppressed by
howls and groans, and we, for our part, shall not
join in any such attempts at suppression. We
should like to see tno question taaen up oy ne
nublioans. Mr. Camenter made a great begin
ninii in reference to Louisiana. Such a Work
would be far more conducive to the prosperity of
the party, and to tho cause of good government
now and hereafter, than the bead-long passage of
senliinrntnl bills in favor or the negro. ,
Uoubly Itmnnahlr.
Probably tho most damaging crimo
lh.il can be la I a statesman is to as
sumo tho duties of a Ropresentativo,
either in Congress or a Stato Legisla
'.nro, and at tho samo time accept tho
agency or'atlorncyship of somo soul
loss corporation, wboso interests nro
exactly tho reverso of those of his
constituents. Tho editor of tho liar-
risburg Patriot cites a caso in point :
"Hon. Lyman Tremeine, member of Congress
from the Flats of Now York, we observe is also
attorney for the Illinois Central railroad com
pany. In our judgmont the two occupations in
volve such otioosite courses of action that it will
be Terr difficult at times to sink the attorney ii
the statesman. A high sense of the duly of a
representative in Congross would Induce tbe at
torney of the Illinois Central eilher to resign his
office or throw up his brier.
It In just ns impossible now to servo
two masters as it was eighteen bun-
drod years ago, when tho Groat Moral
Lawgiver said "yo cannot servo God
and Mammon." A man cannot bo a
Congressman for a populur conslitu
oncy and a hired attorney for a cor
norution whose intorcsts covor tho
samo field.
Death of a Noble Man. John
Edgar Thomson, Prosident of tho
Pennsylvania Railroad Company, died
at Ills rreiilono. in Pbiluuolphia on
Wednesday night, in bis 60th year,
The State has lost an ciniocnt and
useful citizen and tbo railroad its chief
and safest officer. All tho stations

Tho financial ombarrassmcnt which
overhangs tho wholo country no doubt
hastened Mr. Thomson's death. Tho

work, and by tho time one year rolls
