Hello, Sat I If a combination of
rogues in tho Treasurer's and Auditor
General' ofllco could gobble (50,000
out of tho Stato Treasury whilo Hurt
was Chiof Clerk, how much moro
tbey rako in Btiould tho said Hart be
elected Treasurer? Taxpayors, how

Frod, A. Sawyer, a Massachusetts
schoolmaster, who carpet-bagged to
South Carolina after tho war nnd was
elected a United Statos Senator, and
afterwards appointed Assistant Secre
tary of the Treasury by Grant, has
just beon convicted at Washington of
conspiring with cotton claim rogues,
and thoreby plundered the Treasury
of $67,000 while in office. As tbe poet
would exclaim, "Ono by one the roses
fall."
A Pretty Set Up. Fassmoro, tho
loading insurance agent, and Radical
nomineo for Auditor General, proposes
providing the people are foolish
enough to elect him to transfer his
insurance agency to tho Auditor Gen

could adjust tho tax rate ot every
company according to his caprice or
fancy. Could thoro bo any other
scheme devised that would moro surely
lead lo corruption and bribery ? If so,
let us hear from it.
A Pretty Watch Dou. Whilo Capt.
Hart, tho Radical nomineo for Stato
Treasurer, was acting as Chief Clork
In the Treasury Department, a number
of clerks in that and the Auditor Gen
eral's office conspired, together wilh
a number of County and City Treas
urers, and successfully plundered the
Stato out of FIFTY THOUSAND
dollars. If that kind of crime and
crookedness can be carried on right
ondor bis nose while CHIEF Clerk,
what improvcn.cnt would it be toolcct
him Treasurer? Would his shrewd
ness and integrity bo improved, and
the interests of tho tax-payers moro
highly respected by promoting Mr.

JUSTICE IX MISSISSIPPI.
Tho Baltimore Gtiieffr hitssottwbotly
a good lick just In (hit way: "The
grand jury of Kemper county, Miss.,
has returned thirty-one indictments
gainst supposed participants in the
assassination of Juugo Chisliolm, tlx
for murder and Iwenty-tlvo m accosso-
proapocunui ine rioiors win do urouni
to justice. This Is very gratifying
news, the moro o because tho Radical
northorn proas bas from tho tirst al
fectod to regard tho crime as inspired
by political malice, and aoeusod tho
local authorities not only with neglect
ing to prosecute the porpotrators but
with affording them covert sympathy
and protection. There was a time, in
deed, whon the organs demanded that
the federal government should over
stop the bounds of tho Constitution
and tako tho administration ot local
justice into its own bands; with al
most incredible folly they oven en
deavored to hold the entire Democratic
party responsible for tbo crime,, and
quoted it aa an unanswerable argu
ment against the Southern policy of
Mr. Hayes. Tbe fact that it was a
Democratic Governor who inspired
tho present courageous attempt to de
tect and arrost the rioters, a Demo
cratic Judge who charged the jury
with the duty, and a Domocratio jury
which has found the indictments, is a
sufficient answer to partisan slander
The Mississippi vondutta, as we bavo
said trom tho first, was neither more
nor less than deliborato murder, and
tho miserable wretches who took part
in it richly deserve to suffer the ex
treme penalty of the law ; but it should
bo romemborod tbat thore have been
quite as revolting exhibitions of law
lessness in tbo North and West, and
that justice was far more successfully
defied by the Pennsylvania Mollio Ma-
guires than by any mob of Mississippi
ruffians. Tbo lesson to be drawn from
tbe Kempor county tragedy is indeed
identical with tbat taught by tho late
strikos. No community can afford to
tolerate tor a moment mob violence in
any form. Tbo citizen who undertakes
to redress his wrongs without recourse
to the courts is society's worst foe,
and society will be nowhrere seoure
until it realizes this fact. Tho senti
ment which condones lynching in Kon
tucky does not differ essentially from
that which justifies Mollio Maguirism
in Pennsylvania, communism in Chi
cago, hoodlamism in San rruncisco,
and mob law In Mississippi. Every
community in the land needs to bavo
this vital truth permanently establish
ed in its codo of morals, and wo there
fore hopo that an oxamplo will bo
made of tbo Kempor county rioters
tbat will answer for all tlmo to come."
A "Square Timbeb" Reply. Tbo
Ronovo correspondent of the Philadel
phia Commomoealth, among other mat
ters in alluding to Col. JSoyes, our
nominee for State Treasurer, relates
the lollowing:
A f.w y.ara ago tho Helbodiit Cbttrob in -la
Tillag. t Weatporl) wa. fold at Hhriff 'a aal., on
a mechanic', lien, and wai purchased by Colonel
Novoa, and ha. line, been used by any denomi
nation thai ebooac to do to, ho keeping up lb.
repair, at hi. own .xpMie. Bom. time ago a
rftymaa waa dinioc with ntin after aervlce, and
ineidently Inquired of the Colonel if h. naloogea
to th. .bureh. To which bo, with dry humor,
replied: "No, etrj lAe eAerc. eWoeye lo we."
The correspondent in question con
tinues as follows: "I remember dis
tinctly tbe first timo some ten yours
ago tbat 1 bad tbo bonor ot meeting
bim. I had some slight business to
transact with him, and wont to bis
residence in Westport to soo him. I
was there Informed tbat I should pio
bably find bim at or near tho sawmill.
On reaching the mill, I saw several
men up to tboir waists in tbe water of
the dam at work among tho logs, and
inquired of one of them where I could
find Colonel Noyes, and was consider
ably surprised when I was inlormod
that I was thon talking to that indi
vidual. Not many men of bis woaltb
and standing and of bis ago will be
found working in mud and wator as a
common laborer. But there are tew
men like "Old Square Timbor."
The Radical Ticket. About a half
a score of "the loyal millions of tbo
North" assembled in a room in fjo's
Opera IIouso, on tbe 3d inst., and nom
inated the following ticket: For Pro-
thonotary, Willis J. Nugont, of Burn
side township; for Register & Recorder,
Tboodoro Van Duson, of Houtzdale,
and lor Surveyor, Thomas W. Moore,
of Penn township. Mr. Nugont is An
Agricultural 'Squire, and is a fur better
furmer than he could ever be a Pro-
thonotary. Mr. Van Dusen is a Houtz
dale merchant, who came to the coun
ty about two years ago, and bus no
interests in the county outside of bis
store. Mr. Moore belongs to tho old
class of citizens, and is a tolerably com
petent Surveyor. But not one of tbe
Radical nominees is to be compared
in knowledge and ability to ours.
Honco it is folly for a Democrat to
vote for men who are far loss compe
lent tban tbo nominees ot bis own
party.
A Pretty Plea. Gen. John Mo-
Donald, formerly Supervisor of Inter
nal Revenue at St, Louis, and ot the
bisky ring notorioty, against whom
there is an indictment pending in tbe
United Statos court there for conspir
ing to destroy publio records whilo in
office, bas filed a plea in bar against
further prosecution, tbe plea being
based upon Grant's pardon, which be
alleges embrace tbe same offences
with which he is now cbsrged. Mc
Donald is the man who made Grant a
present of a pair of fast horses, and
waa afterwards appointed Rovenue
Agent and then fell in with the "crook
ed whisky" thieves about the time
Grant telegraphed to the District At
torney at St Louis: "Lot no gnilty
man escape." The rogues wore all con
victed and pardoned by Grant.

Houeuouy Mimtakkn. Judge Mo
Knully, whilo haranguing his fuithful

An exchange puts it in this way : ".Mr.
George William Curtis introduced Into
tho Rochester Convention a proposi
tion declaring that "the lawful title of
Rutherford 13. Hayes to tbo Presiden
cy is as clear and perfect as that of
Goorgo ashington. On a call of

A Had Burn. The stablos and shops
of tho Now York Dry Dock Passongor
Railway Company took flro on the

to the ground. About 800 horses wore
liberated and ran wildly through tho
streets. It is thought nouo perished.
The Iobs lo tho Dry Dock Company

A Sioneb. An exchango says
Morton, tho passenger railway man,
being tho great grand-son of an illus
trious "signer," very naturally becomes
a groat signer himself, says tbe Phila
delphia Record. "But tho signing of
tbe ancestor is said to bavo brought
liberty, whoroas the descendant's sign
ing ought to bring captivity. Ho sign
ed too much. Nobody can say of bim
when he is gone, that ho died and
left no sign."
Go in. It is reported that General
Howard has informed the Wsr De
partmont that ho will fight tho Indian
war all winter on tho lino ho has com
menced unless ho succeeds in killing
an "Injun" sooner. Ho is determined
to make mince meat out of ono or moro
western "Lo." Tbe "red skins" bad
better keep an eyo on the old Bureau
manager. Ho might clean them out
like he did that Radical piece ot furni
ture. Conoress. According to the Hayes
stipulations, this body meets in Wash
ington, on Monday next, in extra ses
sion. 1 be regular Constitutional ses
sion opens on tbe first Monday of Do-
eember; bnt as Hayes is an extra
President, we must have an extra ses
sion ol Congress. Well, since tho mem
bers aro paid by tbo year, we'll filo no
objections.
Eliza is Ahead. Tho Chicago
7Yme trusts thut if Mr. Hayes visits
Louisiana he will not fail to "call upon
and kiss tho aching brow of Eliza
Pinkslon." Why, nnyes wont to Rich
mond, Indiana, to kiss Morton, and
why not kiss Eliza too. She gavo him
Louisiana, and Morton lost him Indi
ana. Hayes owes the "colored gal
far moro than the Senator.
A Hates Motto. Hayes at Atlan
ta said: "When Greek meets Greek,
you know wbat the conflict is. And
more tban tbat, yon know exactly
bow it will torminato. That party in
that fight will always conquer that
has tho most Greeks." In othor words,
eight can lay ovor seven. Hayes un
derstands that littlo aff-ir.
Not so Clear. The Nashville Amer
ican does not think it was a mistakoto
socedo. Although it failed of Its im
mediate object, that strugglo "warded
off at the last moment, when effective
protest could be mado, tbe dangers of
consolidation, of ultimate imperialism!"
This is not liko crystal in its clearness.
Colonel Jim. Second Best. Tho
Blair county Radicals are still In lovo
wilh tho crooked ways of Colonel Jim
Millikon. Six of their best citizens

Somebody Mistaken. Hayos told

aud rogues rule tho Slulu any longer;
or till nil it revert into the huuds of

question that should agitato and direct
tho attention of tho tax -payors of this
grout Commonwealth. Shall snobs and

as "tho latu lamented" termed it, over

Poor Wii.liamsport. During war
times, wbon Radical politicians feather
ed their nests and loaded tho States,
municipalities and the Nulion wilh
hugo piles of debt, this neighboring
down-the-river city bad n debt of (G-I.l
000 suited down by its loeal authorities
lor tho benofit of tho tax-payors. This
is a remarknblu "blessing" (as Lincoln
termed a hugo National duht) for so
small a place. Some of tho tax-payors,
aware that two-thirds of this debt was
a square stcitl, refused to pay either
debt or interest on tho oxcoss ovor
(200,000, and took tho caso into Court.
Tho Supremo Court bus just affirmed
tho job, and has pronounced the bonds
legal, und has ordered their payment
with interest. What a blessing tho
Herdio ring has entailed on the tax
payers of that city.
Gravb Weepers. Tho Venango
Spectator, in alluding to Grant's pil
grimage, says : "Shakespeare felt, no
doubt, in bis own lifetime, Hint poster
ity would award him a world-wido
and enduring fume, but he couldn't
bavo known that Grant would como
to Stratford on-A volt, tako a drink
with tho Mayor of tho town, nnd make
a pious pilgrimago to bis tomb. Yet
Grunt did all this; and, what is more,
ho assured the peoplo of Stratford that
tho "Divino M'illiam" wus honored iu
America, us nu melons Sliukepenro
societies and Sbukespeare saloons could
attest. There has been nothing like
Grnnt at tho grave of Shakespeare
since Murk Twain wept over tho grave
of Adam.
TintowiNO Dirt. Tho now admin
istration organ, the Washington -Yii-tional
Union, John Lynch, editor, has
mudo its appearance. It is a neat and
nowsy sheet and in every way an im
provement on Washington journalism.
But then Republican organ-grinding
has como to a pretty pass when it re
sorts to such quotations form tho Dem
ocratic press as tho following from tbo
Lynchburg Viryinmn, which appears
in Hi o Xutional Union under tho bead
of "Political Briefs": "Democrats can
well afford to bo patriots, when Conk
ling, lllaino & Co. undertake to pro
scribo a President ot their own milk
ing for doing his duty to tho South
and to the country."
Elections. The second Tuesday in

In Ohio, Indiana and Iowa, but being
compelled to go to press on tho after
noon of that day, wo aro unable to

in tho two lutter States was wholly
local ; but in Ohio tho Senatorship was
tho absorbing element. Uenco the trip

Tho editor of the St. Louis Olotie (Had.)
scoops into "tbo government" in this
way: "If Mr. Huycs is right now,
wherein was Andy Johnson wrong ten
years ago? Wo shall be greatly
obliged for a satisfactory answer to this
conundrum. Before we proceed any
lurthor wilh tho indorsement of Hayes
let us do penance for the wrong done
poor Andy. Hayes seems to us vory
much liko a copy ot A. J., with tho
drinks omitted and a goodly part of
the brains scooped out." How these
loyal men do "take on" about them
selves I
The Pardon Business. The Board
of Pardons did a flourishing buaine-s
at its luto session. Out of thirty-two
coses considered, pardons were recoin-
mendod in nine, refused in ten, and
thirteen cases were held under advise
ment. Tho quality of morcy evident
ly is not strained at Uarrinbtirg. It
runs through tho solve just about as
it is poured in. Tho fact is a most
discouraging ono to tho ad ministration
of criminnl justice in Pennsylvania.
"Truo Reform" is the way tho Rad
icals put It now. That, we supposo,
means Huycs stumping Ohio, and on
bis return to Washington shipping the
Ohio clerks home by regiments to help
boost Stanley Matthews through.
Boys, your reform is too thin whilo
your crimes aro too transparent, and
your condemnation will bo complete
this fall.
An Omission. Chairman Arnold
the other night, overlooked tho fact
that somebody had been nominated

whether the fact was mentioned or not.

Nogley, a son of General J ames S. Neg

burg, Pa., district, has been lodged in
the Pennsylvania penitentiary, having
been sentenced at F.no, Pa., to pay a
fine ot (25 and one year's imprison

himself off as a detective and swindling
a woman out of fivo dollars as license
for selling liquor. There is not less
than a score of this class of gentlemen
rogues still plying their vocation in
this Stato who long since bavo earned
similar sentences. It is well that Gen.
Nogley has been scored in this wny,
because ho was ono of llioso corrupt

Editor Ukpuiilican : Having re
ceived iiuineinus lultora making inqui
ries anil asking for information about
tho "IiOno Slur Stale," 1 beg leave lo
answer tbo sumo through thu columns
of your valuable papor. Though ovory
ono does not sea Texas alike, 1 believe
II til tin I'M.
From present indications there will
boa greul lido ol euiigrutioii to Texus
this lull ; und we coiigriitulnlo uliko
tho emigrants und people of Texas on
Iho fuel thai the crops of grain, Iruil
und vegelublus Ibis your In Texus have
been uiiusuiiwy lull, uuu will lurnisii
an ubuudunt supply uliko for citizens
und slrangers seeking hinds and homes
in Iho productive. Slitto whoro Provi
donco bus been so lavish wilh all the
bounties thut muko life easy und desir
able. Texas is now receiving u larger
lido of immigration than any other
Stato or Territory in the Union. The
thousands ol families in tho old Stules,
who have beon toiling out tboir lives on
poor hinds without remuneration,
should seek tho rich, alluviiil und na
tural pus tu res of Texus as n pluco of
prosperous reliel trom poverty uuu u
poor, docrenid old agu.
Though Texus bus Iho most produu
livo soils, tho riihost pastures, mildest
climate, and longost summer, yet it
is not wilbuut its disadvantages. And
while 1 recommend its good qualities,
1 would not udviso any families or
young men to rashly abandon homes
of comfort und good society lor an ad
venture iu Texus Huving truvolod
throutrh twenty Ihruo ovuntioa, itl ao
1 tnu not average more man iinriy
miles a day, have gained considerable
information aboul the country. Home
localities have sullored severely trom
drouth in the north-western counties;
but 1 exits is noted for drouths, und
yet they se!dotn begin until thero has
been enough rain to insure n full crop.
Northern l'exus is a much moro de
eiruhlo pluco for locating than central
or southern Texas, as the climate is
mora adapted lo wheal raising, air
more blueing, better water, und the
peoplo much more enterprising, und, I
should bavo udded, less "corn bread."
Lauds uro cheap und work plenty, and
any man with an average degree of
energy nci-d not fail lo secure a com
fortuttlo living. This is not a well-
watered country lor no wells, no
water. Scarcity of water is one of the
groutosl disadvantages in this part ol
Texas. To ono used to pure moun
tain water, it is ruther embarrassing
lo huvo to tlriiia wuler tilled with wig
gle-tuils. Somo owners of herds havo
to drive tboir stock two and three miles
to water, but thut is not at all strange
in lexas. Although favorably im
pressed wilh my visit to Texas, j ot I
huvo not decided lo locate hero until
I havo tuken a trip Oirough tbo Indian
Tenilory and Kansas, fur which I ex

In reply to tho Monitor, Father Fry

follows: "If you moan tbo oldest in
years w o can soon count sixty-six ; if
tho oldest in connection with editing
a newspaper, wo commenced that bu
siness in 18o5, and with Ibrco intervals
of Irom ten months to a little over a

went to tho printing business in Bulti

youro, and thon prni on Oongroaotonod
work at Washington, where we re
mained until compelled to relinquish
our situation from a fall on an icy
pavement At that time jour work
was considerably different from what
it is now, and merely idling typo did
not constitute a workman. The takes
were given out in from two to four
pages of small pica typo, each Jour

THAISSIXA Illi'rrh'H BAND.
Judgo William Elwell, of Columbia
county, declines the nomination tor tbe
Supremo Bench which the United La
bor party baa bestowed upon hi in, on
iho ground that bo is " not prepared
lo sever all com, wtiuii ' with theDemo
crulie party, with which ho has hith
erto ueted. Jlo bas " full tuilll in lh
ei ,

sent lo become tho stundurd bearor of
any new irarty organization," although
bo decluros be is " a workTiigliiau now
and always ready to support every
legislative or other governmental re-
luiiii whicb inuy tend to benefit tbo
laboring classes, promote all industrial
pursuits, and guuru with impartial
judgment the rights and interests of
both cupilul and lubor.
J mlgo Elwell acta and tulks liko a
good Democrat and a man of common
sense, und tho voters, bo they few or
many, wno huvo contempiuieu attach
ing themselves to the proposed organ
ization which bus Bought to make bim

f;ivcn them in tbo few sentences of his
otter to reconsider their deter
mination. If they will carefully
consider what Judge Elwell says, they
will find that be declines to be tbeir
cundiduto because bo is a Demon at,
and furthermore, because, being a Dem
ocrat, ho cannot possibly consent to
join a political association which bars
trom membership any class or citizens.
Such an association is abhorrent to
Iho fundamental principles of Democracy-,
wrliiob demand tliot that rotintry
shall be governed by the voico of a
majority of all classes of its citizens
and which will not endure tbat any
particular class shall take possession
of the Government to administer it in
its selfish interest.
The United Labor party have mado
a grievous inistuko in setting up tboir
organ'zalion, and ono wbieb history
and reuson alike declare to bean error.
No party whoso members have been
solely drawn from any particular class
of tbo community has ever succeeded
in attaining power in a Democratic
Government, unless in a tune ol great
but temporary excitement, and none
so constituted hut over been able to re
tain tho power that it may once have
gained. Do tbo men wbo have origi
nated this United Labor party honestly
believe that it will be for the good of
tho country that it should bo placed
wholly under the control of representa
tives of only tbo labor interest of tbe
country ? Suppose tbat tho capitalists
of tho country should undertake to
organizo a parly which should admin
isler tho Government wholly in their
interest and give tbe laborer no voice
whatever in its control, would not the
members ol tho " United Labor party
think it a great outrage ? Would thoy
not at once, and most justly, say that
it would be wrong to trust the Govern
ment to the representatives of capital
only, however virtuous their declu ra
tions and pious their intentions ?
Tho interests of labor would not bo
sale under tbe protection of liio most
honest representatives ol capital ; but
neither would tho interests of capital
bo sale under tho protection ot tbe
most honest representatives or labor.
Men cannot be trusted to act fairly
against their instincts and appetites ;
tho lamb cannot sntely lie down witb
tbo lion. Judgo Elwell declines the
invitation of the Labor party lo help it
get tho advantago of capital. Ho tells
it very plainly tbat bo lavors tbo in
to rest of neitbor at tho expense of the
other, but that ha demands for both
ihe rights which belong to them. As
a Democrat bo belongs toa party wbieb
proposes to defend every interest and
every class in tbe enjoyment of its
propor lunoliona ad pmwilorna. JLa a
Democrat be frowns upon every move-
mc-iit of one interest or one class to
unduly advantage itself at tbe expense
of another.
The United Labor party proposes
to protect tbe rights ot labor ; but if
labor bad to depend upon its weak arm
for its safety, its fate would bo quickly
sealed. Tbe fools wbo have originated
such a movement as tbis interest ol
lubor havo not shown wisdom enough
to lead a flock of sboep. Tbo move
ment is worthy only of contempt, and
so lightly have we thought of it, thut
we have not cared to waste words
upon it Judge El well's few senlcncos
puncture it to tho heart, and it will
wither away before 'tbe fall of tbe
autumn leaves. Every reflecting labor
ing man knows tbat tbe party lo pro
tect him is Dot one that starts out with
a puroose to do so at tbe expense of
oilier interests ; but that bis welfare
can only bo secured in company with
tbat ol bia lellows, and uy a political
party which demanda equal rights to
all. jAincaster Intelligencer.

said to have been vory affecting ; the
Senator assuring tbo committee tbat
nothing' Id bis personal history gavo
bim more pleasure or greater gratifica

any othor Senator ever boloro received
such marked attention from a Church

must be enacted. Old and well defined

The People Don't Want Him.
Wo notice In various parts of tho State
thoro is a spirit of healthy opposition
developing in tho Republican party, to
the election of Mr Hart (Mr. Mackey's

cheeky in the treasury ring to capture
