TFrom tbe New York Timei, Feb. 19, 1873.
Afeiira. Kelley and Garfield present a mo it
dlitreiiing figure. Their participation in tbe
Credit Af obilier ailair ia complicated by the moit
unfortunate oontradictloni of testimony.

The character of tbe Credit Mobilier wai no

Though Oakei A race may have luccteded in con

Ham of them have indulged lo teitimony with
reference to the matter which bai been contra
dicted. The committee dittinelly rejects the tetti

testimony gictn under oath it moral Iff, if mot lefal-
It ia tbe clear duty of Conjrreii to viiit with

of any othor county in tho State. The
averago for tho Slate will evidently

we reach seventy- per cent.
Kxatti.t. The Radical organs are
announcing that tho champion Confed
erate Brigadior, (icncral Longstroet,
ia not for Hancock.' That't rather a
natural concluaion. Hancock went for
Longstiool at Gettysburg and al sev
eral othor bard lought battle. fiolds,
and thrashed him, too. Hence, the
"Confederate Brigadier," who Is now

Nearly two hundred voters registered

Summor, our efforts must bo succosa-

Com t on, Bucktaii-s! Col. Atkins,
a Confodcrato oditor, of the Lexington
(Virginia) Ga:etlc, in alluding to gome
things which occurred in the Shenan
doah Valley during tho late unploasnat

causo to remember tho Bncktails of
Pennsylvania, who, under tbe lead of
Hancock, did such stubborn fighting
on bo many hard fought fields. Han

up their arms for the fray. Tbe stand

many years. Down with Camoronismt

moot you again ; but wo won't bo lick
ed this time.
Tux Twain. John Hancock waa
tho first signer ol tho Declaration of
Independence. Every lebool boy
recollects tho elaborateness of thai
signature JOHN HANCOCK writ
ton much bolder than the name of any
othor signer. When inquired of by
some of bin friends why he made bia
mark bo oonepieoouB on that piooo of
parchment, ho answored : "Well, King
Georgo tho III has offered tho Indians,
and all other frco-booturs, a reward of
t5,000 for tho acalp of every man who
would put his name to this documont.
There'a mine aa bold as 1 can write it
JOHN HANCOCK. Our nominee is
a grandson of that bold signor of tho
Declaration of Independence. Tho
British King nov'er succeeded in secur
ing the acalp of a aingle signer to that
sacred document.
Bad Health. Wa regret to learn
that Senator Don Cameron's health is
so much nndermindod as to cause his
friends serious apprehension, and only
an ontiro abstinence from all excito
mont or mental strain, he is advisod,
will assuro his restoration. He is un
der the care of a physician and has
dropped everything but attention to
his nervous condition. Although we
do not subscribe to the political views
of fienator Cameron, bis enorgy and
vigor is worthy of imitation by both
young and old, and tho more men of
his clans tho State cultivates, the lon
ger tho Commonwealth and lroo insti
tutions will Inst. Ho is no drone in
Bociety, nor tho emblem of a tramp.
If a Radical is to represent tho Ky
stono Stato at Washington, wo prefer
some man with a little snap in him.
We cannot afford a drono, or a dead
weight.
Just Hold On. A oontomporary
spikos a loyal gun in this way: "It
should bo borno in mind by the Re
publican brethren, in palliation of cen
sure for Gen. Garfield's unsatisfactory
letter, that ho had to fit tbe platform.
That singlo condition was quito suffi
cient to necessitate a failuro. Tho
Chicago platform is all absurdities and
incongruities. A party that puts into
its declaration of principles an indorse
ment of II r. Hayes' theory of civil
sorvice reform, and then procoeds to
nominate for Vice President the most
conspicnons victim ot that alleged re
form, has no right to criticise tbe in
consistencies and evasions of its Presi
dential candidate's letlor of accept
ance." A rosiT. That notod Jewell, de
lcatod for Governor, awhile Postmas
ter Uoneral, then Plenipotentiary to
Russia fur six months on a 117,000
salary, now Chairman of the Radical
National Committoo, was closeted with
Hayes on lual Friday. Tho meeting
ol two such exceptional characters
bodes no good lor tho country, Being
both guilty of grand larceny, they
need watching.
In 1870, Clearfield county bad a
population of 25,000, and Indiana coun
ly 30,000. Now the former has 43,-
000, and the lattor 40 ,000. A gain of
seventy per oont In the one, and only
twclvo per cent, in the other.
Don't fail tc read "The Hero of
Gettysburg," on our first page. Col.
Forney Las been, literally, a Major
General in tbe Radical ranks tor ovor
twenty yoars. Us knows what la go
ing to happen.
HA VIC Ah lillETQRICALai;sll.
Tho idea moat prominent in Goneiul
Garfield's letter of acceptance is tho
duty ot the central authority towards
citixens of tho Hcpublio, OT of tho States
composing the Republic. Alluding to
bis rcnuii'k under tlim head, and
heartily commending nis views, one
of his most curliest and able champions
declurea that it is tho duty of tho Gen
eral Government "to protect all citi
tens in all their rights." And the samo
organ finds its best reason for support
ing General Garfield fn tho fact that
holds and declares this opinion as to
tbo obligations resting on tho central
power.
If this gushy rhetorlo moans any-
.tliing at all, it means that wbonovor
and wherever any right of a oiliaen la
invaded, he must look lor rodross, not
to the local authorities, not to tho ofllcors
of his town, oity oounty or State, but
to tbo oflioials of the Unitod States.
Reduced to plain English, this absurd
and nonsensical proposition Ih what
Gon. Garfield's anti-Status rights dis
sortation amounts to. Strip his docla
ration ol their rhetorical drapery and
put them before tbo ponplo naked, and
neither Gen. Garfield nor any othor
leader of his party would own or do
tend tlit'in.
When Gon. Garfield, or Eugene Hale,
or any other anient Radical, his oyes
in fine frenr.y rolling, bis arms plow
ing great furrows through tho circum
ambient air, roars out to a rural audi-
onoo, "I have no respect for any gov
ernment that will not protect every
citir.cn in all his rights, in overy part
of its domain," tbe orator thus ex
claiming is playing tho part of a very
small and contemptiblo demagogue.
Gon. Garfield knows, ns docs ovory
othor intelligent citizen, thut the cen
tral authority, tho National Govern
ment, is supremo in all tbo power dele
gated to il by the States whon the
Constitution was formed, and in all
power thus delegated by tho amend
ments. But Gen, Garfield and every
other sensible man knows that tho pro
tection ol citinoiis ia thoir rights was
mainly left to tho Slates, and that for
this purpose all tho mechanism of local
government exists.
If Gen. Garfield's neighbor woro to
bo afllictcd by a raid on his hon roost
or his shcep-pasturo, General Garfiold
would not advise tho sufferer to go to
tbo redorul oflicors for rodrcss of his
wrong lor recovery of tho property
or arrest of tho thieves. Gen. Garfiold
would forget all his rbotorical flap-
doodlo, and, coming down to common
sense, would direct the victim to a
Justice ol the Peaoe and a Ponstablo,
the creatures of Stuto luw.
If a murder, or a donon murdors,
wero to occur in Gon. Garfield's neigh
borhood, be would not think of calling
on tho Federal authority to arroBt, try
or punish tho murderers. Ho knows
that the protection of citizens in. thoir
rights, the rights of person and prop
erty, and the protection of socioty at
largo, i lea with the States, is the
duty of local government.
When the Democratic theory of
Stales rights is fairly stated it is ap
proved by the masses ot all parties.
Wbon tho Republican theory of Fed-
oral duty It denuded of rhetorical orna
mentation, it becomos supremoly ab
surd. No Democrat proposes any as
sault on the supremacy of tho Nation
in tho sphere of duty bolonglng to tho
National authority.
Bui all Democrats, and almost every
body olse, hold that tho right of local
solt-govornment, by State constitu
tions, State Legislatures and tho ap
pliances which they croato, is worth
preserving and must be preserved.
UtiDKriLiD PuBiTANisu. The Lan
caster Intelligencer very appropriately
remarks: "John G. Whittior's objoo
tion to the Democratic party is tho
supproBBion by "fraud and violonce ol
the voto of the colored citixons of the
Southern States." If Mr. Wbittier
would fairly investigate the facts, In-
Btoad of taking the malignant misrep
resentations of partisan politicians, be
would find thoro is a more real sup
pression of tbo votes of citizens of
Massachusetts and Rhodo Island than
in Sonth Carolina or Louisiana, where
the reign oi law and order and froo
franchise has been' contemporaneous
with Democratic Stato Government.
If such Ihwb as govorn in Now Eng
land woro enforced against the negro
in tbo South, ho would be virtually dis
franchised ; but it baa always bocn
characteristic of Now England philan-
throphy that it strained at gnats be
low Mason and Dixon's line, and swal
lowed camels In Puritan land."
Radical Jiwills. It seems thut
Gurficld, tho Radical nominee for Presi
dent, is not tho only "crooked stick"
our opponents havo on band. Their
now Chairman, Jewell, who was look
od upon as a virgin in the affairs of
the world, is about aa badly aoiled as
tbe "Christian Statesman" aforesaid.
We lourn from an exchango that the
somowhat well-known authoress of a
work on life In St. Petersburg, which
was published a year or so ago al
Brussols, and suppressed by tho polico
in Paris, has prepared for publication
an account of tbo connection of Mr.
Jewell, while Minislor in Russia with
the too celebrated affair of the Grand
Duke Nicholas and the Empress' jew
els which will be road with groat In
terest at the prosont time. Tho ar
chives of the Bints department con
tain some curious information on the
samo subjoct, which may see the light
before the closo of the, Presidential
campaign.
"Frki Ships." Radical organs are
somewhat disturbed ovor this freo ship
business. We do not know exactly
why It should bo so, because the only
"tree" shipping wo have known in our
time was that of Hayes, Tilden'a dep.
oty, furnishing Grant and bis butties
with a vessel and rations to sail around
the world for the purpose of getting
np "booms." .And behold, tbe simple-
minded, verdant, guileless Garfield got
away With the honors that the afore
said was entitled too.
His Last ErroRT.-Mr, Hbakespere
to Blaine and Grant : "Farewell, a long
farewell, to all your greatness I This
ia the state ol man, to-day he puts forth
the tender loaves ot hope, to morrow
blossoms, and bt.ars his blushing hon
ors thick upon him: The third day
oomos A frost, a killing frost ; and,
when he thinks, good easy man, full
sorely hi greater is a ripening,,
nips his root, and then he falls."

A resolution wus passed to tbe effect
that tho Committee should co-operate

At 11 o'clock tho National and Con
gressional Committees visited Mr. Til
den. The lormor wero entertained at
the Manhattan Club. Gen. Hancock
called upon Mr. English at tbo Fifth
Avonue hotel. Tho latter would have
been the guest of Gen. Hancock to
night but for the death of his grand
son. Mr. English believes il will be
Bomo time before Gen. Uanoock's let
ter appears.
(,'011 1.10 Home. Twenty-four years
ago, Jno. W. Forney led tho Democrats
of Pennsylvania to victory. Judging
from tho following telcgrum received
last night by Daniel Dougherty, of
Philadelphia, while he was dining with
a party of trionds at tbo Qucon City
Club, ho wants to come homo. It in
dicates tho temper ot thousands of
Ropublicans in Pennsylvania: "1 con
gratulate yon, dear old triend, on your
groat speech in favor ol tho living horo
of Gettysburg "tbo Murat of Penn
sylvania" whose nomination at Cin
cinnati for Prosidont will deliver this
great Commonwealth from tho terrible
curse that bas polluted its fair fame,
destroyod tbo hope of tho young men,
and onricbod its insolent politicians. It
will be welcome to hundreds of tbous
andsof Republicans who regard Grant's
sacrifice at Chicago as tho utispeakablo
ingratitude of tho ago, and it will con
solidate North and South in tho holy
bonds of fraternal pcaco and prosper
ity." "John W. Fornfv."
Tumiilino IN. They can't bo held
back. In Now York Gon. Patrick II.
Jones, Postmaster if that city under
Gonoral Grant, announcos himself for
Hancock. In Philadelphia, John Jay
Smith, tho historian, (icncral Hoffman,
ol tho Loyal Legion, Stephen D. Wins
low, oditor of tho Commrrcuil Lint,
William Stewart, a prominent mer
chant, Charles J. Peterson, tho well
known author, Dr. Mugoon, a promi
nent Baptist clergyman, Mr. Dennot,
ot the famous Towor Ball clothing
houso, and Charles Wistar, ol Gorman
town, a leading Republican, aro an
nounced as supporters of Hancock.
Murk Comfort We notice by our
exchanges that tho Pennsylvania Rail
road Company has made arrangements
for tho erection of houses tor the train
men at the stations where they bnvo
to change and wait ovor Jersey City,
Philadelphia, Columbia, Harriaburg,
Altoona and Pittsburgh. They will con
tain reading-rooms, bath-rooms with
hot and cold water, dormitories nnd
cloaols, and they will be so managed
by tho ocal oflioials as to be kept in
ordor and yot be brought into gonoral

A Good Tiiino. Garfield, in his let

"My opinions are on record among tho
publiBhed proceedings of Congress."
That is truo, but bo should have made
somo mention ol tho Crodit Mobilier

little interest and much disgust, a com
munication in last weok's Haftsman't
Journal, In which tho author bugs
fondly to bis bosom tbo delusion thut
tlio Democrats havo several score of
hopeless "vexations" to deal with. At
least tho word "voxution" occurs about
"throo Kcoru and ten" times in this!
nt very lengthy article
For tho literary workmanship of the
article 1 huvo the most profound admi
ration. .Nearly half ot th timo you
can, by hard study, discover what ia
meant, and that ia porhaK up to the
average literary article. And tho lan
guage is exceedingly chaste arid origi
nal, especially that in reference to the
now kind ot sausage. ... '
But tho seiitiineut of tho article is
discouraging. Wbon evon the great
ajiostlo of tho "bloody shirt," James
G. Jllamii, bus ceased to wavo that at
tenuated garment, it is too bad that a
hull demented partisan of tbo lay
brethren should fling tho tattered en
sign of sectional strife again to tbo
breeze. i . .-
Woro it not for tho melancholy tact
that there aro people who will believe
almost anything, it would be laugha
ble and ridiculous to contemplate the
fear and agony of one like the author
of tho article in question, as lie trem
bles with mortal terror IcbI tho "rebels"
will Jostroy tho Government.
It is a notable fuel that the nnti-robel
howl gooa up, not from tho brave sol
diors who met tho men (if the South
on many a bloody batllo-flcld, but
from the cowardly stay at-bomos, who
do not seem capable of understanding
that u peoplo who wero bravo enough
to take tbo sword to accomplish their
object, uro too bravo to resort to cow
ardly intrigue lo accomplish tho sume
thing.
We quoto tbo ,erorulion ot tho won
derful article, "I'be loyal peoplo havo
a leader, Garfield, whose fume is untarn
ishablo ; who bai been tiied and found
truo in every emergency ol public and
private lite ; a sUdierand a statesman,
and ono who w ll bo the next Presi
dent ot tho Unitid States."
All very nicel But suhstituto the
name Hancock .'or Garfield, and the
description will bo absolutely truo in
every particular, which is moro than
can bo said lor it ns it stands.

Nral on Hand. Noal Dow is none
of your fast year's political chickens,
and learnedly tells somo vory domostic
truths. His lettor accepting the nom
ination of the liquor prohibitionists for
President is out at last. In straight
forwardness and candor the loiter ot
Noal Dow has greatly tho advantage
of that of Garfield. He is, in fact, the
embodiment of Iho plattorm of bis
party, which is tor tho suppression of
Iho liquor business in all it forms
throughout tho I'nitod States. H
docs not concern himsolf with the
Chinese, rivors and harbors, or tho
tariff. Prohibition is his only themo,
and ho appears not lo be in tho least
discouraged by tho untoward results
of his system in Maine, whoro it bas
bad a fuir trial. Noal Dow is a Repub
lican, but unlike Garfield, bo is mixed
up neither in Credit Mobilior, Do
Golyor, nor similar transactions. Re
publican prohibitionists who do not
like tho record of Gurficld, havo thoir
choico of voting tor Neat Dow. In
voting for him they will not bo de
ceived. The unbounded enthusiasm of tho
Demooraoy of Ohio, over tbo nomina
tion of Hancock and English, supple
mented by monster ratification meet
ings throughout tho entire Stato, aro
slrawa which plainly Indicate lliat
Garfield will have no dress parade af
fair in carrying his own Slulo, if in
deed ho can carry il at all. Ho l con
fessedly a weakorand more unpopular
candidate than Hayes, and yot against
a Democracy not half an earnest and
united as the Ohio Democracy of to
day, ho barely pulled through. What
chance then has Garfield?
A Good Idea. An exchango re
marks : "Superintendent Walker has
ordered a census of all Indians not
taxod, and has placed the work of tak
ing it in tho bands of Colonel Mullory,
who bas carefully studied Indian life.
Tho statistics ol the savages will not

While tho writer does not pretend
that there is anything particularly

Samuel J. Tilden and Hutherford li,
Hayes and applying the same rule as
above it resulted : lilden, ZIM ; Uuycs,

between tbe two candidates in exactly
that proportion. Tbo Republican con
spirators, visiting statesmen, and 8-tu-7

in Florida, so as to make Iho count

Tho figures appeared in tho I'uit

to be seen whether a verification of
tho samo singularcoincidence of figures
will follow in 1880, and whether tho
Hcpublican leaders will undertake to
steal ,11 electoral votes from Hancock

OUR SOIDIER-STA TESMAX.
e
A DIBTINtltllHIIED XX-CONr-KllEHATK
SOLDIER ON HANCOCK.
Tlio following ia tho conclusion of
the eloquent speech delivered by (ion.
Honor A- Prvor expressing his confi
dence and suiirjfuclion ut the nomina
tion of General lluifcock by the Cin
cinnati Convention :
lint theniiocittl cry of tlio Repuhli-
cana is that Hancock is tho nominee of
the south, and that tho "Rebel Briga
diers" want lo muk him President for
somo end inconsistent with the iuter
esia and integrity ol tho I'liion. If,
indeed, the peoplo of the South cherish
any sinister design aguinsl the I'nioii,
surely they have selected the lust in
strument on eurtlt for the consumma
tion of their purpose, in a mun whose
life baa been an avistaoy ot passionate
devotion to tbo Union, and whose in
flexible will no powor can wrest from
tho rectitude of its aim. Bul the
South harbors no such design ; and the
nomination of Hancock by the dele
gates lrom the South was mount as a
pledge of their fidelity to tho Union.
Hancock was not tbe preference of
the Southern peoplo tor President.
Their choico unanimous nml enthusi
asticwas Bayard, of Delaware.
How, then, came tlw Southern del
ogatus to 'proffer Hancock as the tan
didnte of tho Democracy 1 I will tell
you, and mark well the significance of
tbo tact: Since tbe closo of tho war
tho Republican parly in tbe North,
for purposes ut party aggrandisement,
havo persisted, contrary to fact, con
trary to truth, in representing tho
Southern poople as enemies still of the
Union, and aa cherishing yet the ex
ploded dogma ot socosaion as a tenet
of tho stales rights creed. In vain
bavo tho Southern peoplo endeavored
to vindicate their patriotism by pro.
testation anil acts of loyal devotion to
the Union. Hitherto, in overy election,
it has suffered for the defeat of tho
Democracy that tho "Bloody Shirt"
was waved by stalwart arms, and fall
ricatcd "outrages" propagated by Re
publican papers. So, at Cincinnati,
tbo Southern delegates said :
"You may impute to us hostility to
lb Union, but we will refute tho ca
lumnious accusation by selling as sen
tinel over the Union the vigilant and
unconquerable hero of tho Union. You
may impute to us tho mischievous
horusy of Stato sovereignty involving
tho right of Becessien. Now, wo will
disprove tho charge by nominating lor
the Presidency, a man educated by
the General Government, and taught
Iho supremacy ot the Nation as tho
first and fundamental rulo ot political
faith, a man who holds his commission
from tbe Federal Government ; who
gets his subsistanco lrom the federal
Government, tor whom no career is
open but in the sorvico of tho' Federal
Government, who knows no other ob
ject ot fealty than the Federal Aug
a man, in short, whose every interest
binds him to the support of the Union
by the most intimate and indisputable
ties." "You say wo aro still unrecon
cilod to the North, and that iu our
hearts still burns the secret flamo ot
soctionul animosity; then, to repel the
reproach, wo tako to our bosom tho
man from whom wo sustained the se
verest blows in our Confederate strug
gle the man who arrested our retreat
at Williamsburg; who chocked our
pursuit at rniHcrs rami; who hurled
our assaulting columns from tho
height ol Gettysburg; who drenched
tbo soil of tho South with the best
blood of the South ; tho man who smote
our ill starred Confederacy to the
ground."
Thus, in nominating Hancock for
the presidency the Southern poople
makn a sacrificial offering of every
principle and of every prejudice inimi
cal to tbo Union and proclaim, by an
act that none but tho tool or knave
will gainsay, that they renounce ovory
sectional lecling or ambition, and are
for tho Union, ono and indivisible, now
and forever.
Our adversaries are in the right ; in
this canvass the interests ot tho Union
are imperiled. Bul by whom? Not
by the parly which rallies around the
horo of iho Union ; not by the Democ
racy, whose party is commensurate
with the limits of tho Union, and who
speak tha same patnotio accents from
Maine to Texas ; not by tbe Democra
cy whoso gospol is "Peace on oarth.
good will to men," and who would
still overy soctional murmur; nor by
the Democracy, who, by tho preva
lence of a spirit of fraternal confidence
and affection throughout the land,
would bind tbe Union togotber by tics
moro enduring and indissoluablo than
the letters ot a military repression
by identity ef interests, by unity of
tooling, cy the Fellowship ol a saorod
brotherhood comprehending all claases
and all scotions within tho fold of it
endearing embrace
If, indeed, the Union be in jeopardy,
it is endangered by the Republican
party tho party who still funs the
flame of sectional fury who, by ap
peals to angry passions and ungener
ous auspicious, would exasperate tho
poople of tho North against tho poople
of Iho South who, by systematic in
justice and prosocution, would repel
the proflered afflictions of tho South,
and drivo them, in despair, upon some
policy as hurtful to you as fatal to
themselves, Tho Democratic party
is tbo party of tho Union ; and now, as
heretofore, Hancock leads tho Union
column, and now, as heretofore, whon
Hancock led tho Union column, it will
suffer licit Iter repulse nor defeat.
And so, fellow Democrats, I finish as
I bogan. We aro going to win it bo
causo the hour's come, and the man I
Applauso. ,
Probabilities. Hancock and En
glish will cortainly receive the 138
electoral votes of the Soulhorn Slntos.
They will also probably got tho votos
of the lollowing Northern and Western
State :

New York 88 California 8
New Jereey 8 Oregon 8
Ponniyleaula toj
boutbara 6latM .H 138
Total 211
This would leave to the Republican
candidates 128 voto, giving the Dem
ocrat a majority of 113. Nobody need
borrow any trouble about tho way of
counting these votes. Thoy will be
counted by tho two Housoj of Con
gress, according to the Constitution.
No Kloctoral Commission will interfere.
Conhi8tin4'T Longstroet, tho great
est Confederate leador aflor Lee, and
Guerrilla Moaby, wero both against
Hancock and a restored Union during
tlio war, and they aro both against
Hancock and a perpetual Union now.
They are Radical jowols. They killed
more Union soldiers than hall "tbe
Confcdoralo Brigadiers'' comblned.and
yet, thoy are tho only "rebel" "the
loyal million" ot the North embrace.
Garfield' Baby. A fact which
abould be kept at the front until No-
vombor 2d : "Tho movoment in the last
session of Congress which tho Radical
denounce as an assault on the nartv of
olocliona was emphatically indorsod
and eoootidod by General Garfield, and
the Deputy Marshal bill, which Mr.
Hayea vetoed, was tho progeny of
General Garfiold.

It will be observed Hint rapid growth
ran through tlio counties in a very
streaky manner. McKean county,
with its phenomenal gain of 3X2 per
cent., tells tho statistical story of tho
oil strikes. Westmoroland's spurt was
caused by the development of the coke
industry. The oponing of great coal
fields in Clearfield sent thut section
abcaad with a healthful boom. Ve
nangos flat lull is easily explained
when one remembers that the timo ot
thotakingot tho lost census tho oil fever
wus at its height and that mushroom
cities which thon containod 8,000 or
10 000 peoplo have gono out ot cxis
tenco. Bluircounly owes its full figures
to the go-ahead city ot Altoona, which
grew al the ruto of 88 por cent., while
the country's rate was 33 per cent.
Delaware county finds that tho city of
Uhcster and its suburban boroughs hail
much to do with placing it so high on
tho list, while Lancaster, Berks, Ly
coming, Dauphin, Krie, Luxorne and
Lackawanna bavo been similarly help,
od to tbe front. Tho average growth
of the agricultural counties is shown
to be about ten por cent., and it is seen
that few of tho mountain counties, ex
cept In the coal and oil regions, have
passed ten per cent. The gain in
Chester county, seven por cent., and
the gain in Bucks, seven per cent., show
tho steady progross of tboso suburban
farming sections, offering a contrast to
tho fevorish trot of McKoan. Lumber
and oil have helped Elk surprisingly,
and old York's encrgotio step is a
matter of interest. Cambria ran bo
fast that she is already clamoring for
a separate Law Judge, having 7, COO
more than is necessary. Philadelphia
Timet.
CRITICISM.
Tho Springfield Republican sternly
reprovos Goncral Garfield because he
did not in his letter of acceptance, "re
pair Iho insult offered by tho Chicago
Convention to Mr. Hayes" when that
Convention sclocted Arthur to ridout
tho rear of tho ticket. Tho Spring
field admirer of Mr. Hayes remarks
that "Candidate Gnrfield has allowed
hiinBcll to be overborne by the shoit
sighted polit y of trimming in politics.
Weuk discretion is not the better part
of valor for a man in his position."
That may bo true, but lliero is room
for a doubt as to whether it would
have bocn profilublo for Gen. Garfield
to further alienate tho stalwarts by
antagonir.ing their views. Tho fact is,
this unhappy candidate is in a position
where ho can't move ut nil without
damaging his already sufficiently
gloomy chances. Tho factions which
no is expectod to conciliate and har
monize aro irrcconcilublo in their hos
tility. Tho Administration men de
test tho stalwart and abuse tho ma
chine. Messrs. Hayes and Schurr,
and thoir school)! sentimentalists, are
as cordially despised by tho stalwart.
There can novcr bo a unification ot
such clans. They may patch up a
truce later in the canvass, but there
will bo no heart, no sincerity, no en
thusiasm in thoir work. It. will be
cold, formal, mechanical. Thoy can't
attract the independent voters. They
can't draw the floating voto tho voto
that goes with tho sido that has most
confidence and onthnsiasm, and which
constitute the controlling influence in
moro than ono closo State. It may
not seem like a respectful allusion to
any portion of the aovorcign people,
but it is a fact, novcrlholoss, that close
elections are ofton decided by a class
of men whoso only desire is to he on
the winning sido. These men will not
float in tho sullen tido which is bear
ing the Radicals to defeat.
