Tub Next Election. Wocommond
tho following to the attention of voters:
The now Constitution forbids all per
sons from voting unless thoy have been
ussossod at least two months and paid
tlioir tuxes at Kant one month before
tho dato ol the election. No one ot
foreign birth can vote unless, in addi
tion to the above, he has been natural
ized a month previous to tho election
The dato of holding tho next election
is Tuesday, Nov. 2d.
Friday, October 1st, is the htRt duy
on which taxes can be paid.
Friday, Octobor 1st, is tho laRt dny
for taking out naturalization papers.
Each of those important duties can
lie performed at any time before the
days mentioned. Lot our friends soo
to it that the matter is attended to be
fore it is too late.
An exchange says that "two hundred
Itepublicans in and about tho city ol
Corry, Kno county, will vote for Persh
ing and Piollot." Well, that will be
tho brightest act of their lives.
Wke'i Perching T Pennaylrania certainly

Well, if you aro green enough to not
know who ho is, just inculmto until
Novoinbcr and your wisdom will ex-
rpand to that of a chicken's. "Whore
iignoranco is blisH, 'tis folly to bo wise."
The bluster in the Radical press
about Jndgo Pershing's record is best
answered by the fact that his constitu
ents worn so well satisfied with it that
tlwy kept returning him to tho Legis
lature as long as he would permit, lie
was elected for five successive terms.
Katiikr Thin I A Democratic gain
of 9,000 in Connecticut, 32,000 in
California, and 8,000 to 10,000 in Maine,
is Attributed by the Itepublicans to
local caunes. The same local causes
wo operating and will afflict them tor-)-ibiy
in Ohio and Pennsylvania within
tho next month.
Hi i)sKTS. Judge Elwell, of
Columbia county, has delivered an
elaborate opinion on tho lioenso law.
He dissents from the great majority of
judges, and holds that the granting of
license is discretionary. If "necessary
for the entertainment of strangers and
itrssrellors," .and the party applying a
proper person, grant them ; if not
refuse them.
. The Government Tramps. Tbe
Lancaster Intelligencer, of the 25 th inst.,
says: "President Grant, accompanied
by ex-Secretary and Mrs. Borie, Gen.
liabcock and Colonel Fred Grant and
wife, arrived in St. Louis yesterday.
To-day tho President will visit his farm
und arrange for the salo of his stock.
Oa Monday evening ho will leave for
Den Moines, Iowa, to attend (lie sol

The history of n1Ht ttUd, secret oath
bound organisation, built up and fos
tered ly tlie cttpilal of demagogues
ronegade clergy oion, Is well known
o all who had arrived at the ago ot
maturity In 1854.
That secret political organisation,
was gotton up in the interest ol tho
then defunct Whin parly, by a few
rare demagogues who attempted to ru
Btora that demoralised organisation
then on tho eve of dissolution. .
Know Nolhiiiifism was a failure. It
la true the lenders burned a fow chnroh
building and murdered a few scores of
citizens in the large cities, but us a pun
fying element in our system of political
economy, it died an unnatural death,
and was buried with the Whig purty
within eighteen months after its birth.
lho present Itepnhlican party was
founded on the bloody ruins of ''Sam'
and "Sambo," nt Pittsburg, iu 1850.
Tho same fate which befel tho Whig
party In 1852-3 Las ovortakon tho 'Re
publican party in 1874-5, and Its lend-
ors aro just now on tho lookout for
flankers, mid have established in vuri-
on h sections, no less than three or four
different kinds of SECRET OATH
BOUND political organisations for the
purpose of saving the sinking ship,
which bus been run on the rocks by
the domagoguos and freebooters who
control that party.
Wo, therefore, warn nil Dcmocruts
in Clearfield county and elsewhere to
bo on the lookout lor those political
highwaymen who proposo to regulate
capital and labor. That is only a trap,
and thoy will bo foolod as egreglously
as thoy woro twenty years ago. Tho
same demagogues (those who aro not
dead) aro at their old tricks and are
laboring to build up Know Xothingism
under a new nunio. Look out for the
scoundrels who invite you to go out
side of the Democratic party to cure
our financial evils, no difference what
namo they sail under. Thrre is no re
lief for our iqiimilAe condition ruvpt in
title of tht Democratic party.
Radical onimiMxarioa are now at work
in our county establishing lodges, un
der various names, for tho purpose of
bolstering up their party, and it be
hooves every Democrat who loves his
country and his party to bIiuii tho
knaves whoongngoin this wicked work
This is a froo country. Thorcforo
let every man who prelors liberty to
slavery, rcfuso to enter any lodge or
organisation, where bo is compelled to
swear both his soul and his ballot away,
for the exclusive behoof and benefit of
the Radical party.
Lot all who are freemen remain so,
and if there aro somo of our party
friends who prefer the Itudicul party to
ours,lot them go and joiu it voluntarily,
and thereby avoid violating tho laws
of God and man, which they must do the
moment they join a secret otith bouml poli
tical organization.
Friends, beware I Tho men who
have robbed and plundered this nation
for 15 years are not looking after pub
lic interest Having robbed you and
destroyed tho industries of tho nation,
they will not hesitate to rob yon of
your liberty and your ballot. Avoid
those wolves in sheep's clothing as you
would a highwayman. Those Demo
crats (if thero are any) who are foolish
enough to sell thoir political birthright
for a mess of itadicul pottage will of
oourse not hoed our remarks. But it
behooves us as a publio journalist to
warn all, who are disposed to preserve
their manhood, against the crime of
becoming members of any secret oath
bound political organisations. 1 '

California and Maine. Tho rooent
Democratic victories in these States are
far greater than the surface indications
would lead one to suppose. The result
in the former State is a complete tri
umph of right over wrong.and although
the Stato officers were all elected by
handsome majorities, the triumph in
the Legislature and county offices is
overwhelming. Tho members of the
Legislature, liko in our own Stato, are
elected biennially. Two years ago the
Democrats elected 28 out of tho 80
members. This year we eloct CI of
tho 80 members and hundreds of the
county officers.
In Maine the contest was on Gov
ernor, so as Ui carry tho State tor
Blaine, who is socking the Radical
Presidential nomination. To havo al
lowed the Democrats to carry tho State
would have destroyed Blaine's last
hope. Hence bis Radical friends tra
ded a three year Sheriff or Protlioiiotary
for a one year Governor, and in that
way succeeded in electing a Radical
Governor by giving the Democrats
nearly all tho county offices for thret
yean, and then suffered a reduction of
66 percent, on their lowest majority.
If the Radicals can stand such victories
as those in California aud Maine, no
Democrat need complain.
A Little Modistt Lie. Henry
Ward Beeclutr having spent his vaca
tion at the While Mountains, gave no
tice that ho was shout lo return to
Brooklyn one duy last vuek. The
Patent Christians who run Plymouth
Church took it into their beads lo giro
him a huge reception on his return to
that vicinity. This coming to Henry's
ears, be addressed a note to bis beloved
followers in which ho says :
"It would tend to keep alive feelings
that ottguit (o suhsido, to renow discus
sions ot painful public transactions
which should never bays had an exis
tence, and which it wont woll both for
publio and private good to bava ro
movod, if not to forgutfulncss at least
to obscurity. Too many hearts yet
blood, too much sorrow and scorching
excitement nss tnllon upon kind sym
pathising hearts to make it wise to re
new public demonstration, which might
do uusiDtorproloa, and which niiirlit
excite animosity which any good citi-
sen snouid sank to noal.
That is about the bast "ragged edge"
piece be baa spoken for soma time and
we hope it will do the Brooklyn saints
some good.
At tho conclusion of tho roll cull
tho returns wore opened and a ballot

Thero was no regulur candidate for
Coroner before the people, nearly every
borough and township set up a cnndi
iluto, tasting from five to fifty votes for
their favorite. The delegates, how
ever, settled tho question by nomina
ting James B. Neff, of New Washing
ton, for the position, and be was de
clared the nominee for Coroner.
At this point Mr. Dotts, one of the
candidates fur Treasurer, arose and
asked that tho Convention make the
nomination of Mr. Wnltors unanimous,
which was agreed to.
There being no nomination for the

"That lho nomination for State
Treasurer was entirely unsought by
Brother Piolctte wo know from a

previous to the meeting of the coiivcn
tion; and whether be will accept tho
honor tendered him wo have not yet

if he accepts the nomination and is
oloctod by tho people they will bavo a
reformer for Treasurer who, in the
administration of the affairs of this de

tion upon a personal knowledge of the
characteristics of the man."
