The Election Next Week.
Ou Tuesday next, the voters of this
county are again called upon to perform a
HIGH DUTY —for it is evident that the
morn Christian and respectable people
take part in choosing rulers and officers 1
to conduct public affairs, the more likely
that such officers will administer the laws |
upd govern themselves agreeably to the
chnractcr of their constituents. National
affairs too partake of the results, for if ad
vantage is taken of such elections as :
Maine and California and made a pretext
l>y Andrew Johnson and thecop|terheadsj
fur assailing Congress, there might be no
limit to attempted usurpations should the
Union Republicans of Pennsylvania suf
fer the election to go by default. The
people's representatives in Congress, who!
by the Constitution are the law-makers of
the land, are to all inteuts nearly the
same in number as the Congress which I
put down the rebellion, creuted green
backs and bonds, enacted bounties and
pensions, granted public lands and home
steads, and made laws generally, and if
this Congress is a rump as the copperheads
allege, or a body hanging on the verge of
the government as the man in the White
House 1 tst year alleged, then are all these
acts illegal, null and void, and will be so
proclaimed should Pennsylvania, New
York and Ohio be carried by Calhoun's
nullilication democracy. Thousands of
honest democrats may not think so, but
pastexperience shows how, little by little, |
they have gone from one step to another.
These same men three, four or five years
ago would have scouted at the idea of
their endorsing the rebel democracy of'
\V ood, Vallandigliam, Harris, Pendleton,
° ' , 1
and others, as especially advocated near
est home by the Selinsgrove Times, Belle
fonte Watchman, and Huntingdon Mon
itor, yet it is a sober truth that atthisday
the leaders of what is called Undemocrat
ic party have placed it on the platform
which those men and papers advocated
during the war. These are i neon tro vert-i
ible facts that ought to make every tax-;
payer, from the farmer and mechanic to
the humblest laborer, pause and reflect be-1
fore lie votes for men who are anxious
and willing to restore the rebels to all the
(K)iitieal power they possessed under the 1
infamous administration of James Bu
chanan. Young men, especially, to whom
the future of this country is entrusted,
ought to examine this subject carefully! 1
before committing themselves to undo
what the victories over the rebellion ac
complished. Many of them have known ,
what it is to endure the privations and
fatigues and hardships of war—have felt
the power of drafts —and otherwise reali
zed the depleting effects of bounty .sub
scriptions and taxes. Are they so forget
ful of these that they will lend tlieirvotes
to the rebels who caused all these difficul
ties, restore them to power, and run the
risk of another rebellion before they be
come old men? There is nothing improb
able in this. Three-fourths of the present
.Southern generation, male and female,
have been educated in rebel doctrines, hate
everything noilh as bitterly as they did
in and but need the opportunity to
re-enact tiie scenes preceding the late war.
Such a generation is unfit to take part in
a government like ours, until their con
duct shows that they are willing to do
more than yield a growling submission.
Congress has amply and liberally provid
ed for their regeneration, anil it is the on
ly mode which will eventually restoie
headship, good-feeling, and a permanent
]>eut*e.
Of our candidates for Supreme Judge I
and Senate we have already sjx>ken at
length, and now take occasion to refer to
our Legislature. Mr. WHARTON served !
one term, and certainly satisfied every 1
one that he acted the part of a faithful
legislator. He is a man of acknowledged
ability, respectability and honesty, and.
nothing would certainly be gained in this!
district by substituting either of the patent:
democratic candidates in his place, both ;
of whom are of the species "office-hunt
ers," a class that care a great deal for
themselves and their and very
I
little for any laxly else. Our othercandi- .
date is Captain HENRY H. WILSON of
Juniata county, a young man of sound ;
judgement, and who served with distinc
tion through the war in the Ist Reserve
Cavalry. On the stli of February, 1955,
at the battle of Hatcher's Run, he had
part of his jaw shot away, a wound from |
which he suffered a great deal. It is
worthy of note that both the republican
candidates from Juniata county (Colonel j
Robison and Captain Wilson) were
in many liard-fought battles, were both
promoted for good conduct, ami both bad
ly wounded, whi'e the only soldiers nom
inated lor office by our opponents were
hardly in a fight. It is alleged that
Captain MeWilliams.thedemocratic nom
inee for the Legislature, lost a thumb or
j finger in the war, but this we learn is not
•xi, It having been shot off by a pistol
while at home; nor was he in any fight, of i
consequence during the short time he was
in service.
! For Commissioner DAVID F. MILLIKEN
i is the republican and Charles Nageny the
\ democratic candidate. For six or eight
years the Democrat used to implore for
one of that stamp to be in the board just
to see how things are managed, and if
that reasoning was good then, it ought to
be tenfold more so now. There may be
nothing especially wrong in the Commis
sioners' office, yet tiie fact that at this time
of year the Commissioners are borrowing
! money, without warrant of law at that,
to lift county orders, shows that there
j must have been a great want of cure and
calculation since the issue of the last du
j plieates, or else that county funds were
wrongly appropriated to the redemption
i of lxiunty or other bonds, for it is evident
that unless the commissioner\liave ex
' pended more than usual, there ought at
'least to be money in the treasury to lift
the orders issued for eurrent expenditures.
As the Democrat would say, we want a
member in the itoard, just to see how
things are managed.
Mr. LASHELL, our candidate for Treas
urer, is pretty well known as an honest,
upright man, who has buffeted poverty
all his life, and being incapacitated to
earn a living by hard labor, is deserving
the sympathy and support of all who
would desire to do as they would be done
! by. That he would makea good treasurer,
no one can doubt.
Our Jury Commissioners and nominees
for Auditor are of the right stamp, honest
ami capable, and if elected will discharge
their duties to the public faithfully.
Copperliead Gains.
Like schoolboys who whistle to keep
; up their courage, the copperhead papers
are claiming great gains in the recent
elections, and publish the following :
DEMOCRATIC GAIN'S FOR 1867.
The following are the Democratic gains, in round
ouiiiliera xinee last Spring:
In Connecticut, 3.000 jln California, 26.000
In Kentucky. 20.i>0u lu Maine, 1 4.0u0
111 N" iluinpxhite, 5.00 c | lu Montana, 1.000
I u Rhode fxlanti, 2,000 i
! In Vermont, 5.0001 Total, 76,000
Here is a total Democratic gain in seven small States
and one Territory of nearly 80.000 votes—nearly oue
<juartei of the entire popu.ur majority fur Lincoln in
1804 in the loyal States.
Now let us compare this with the truth,
and to make it more clear we place it in
tabular form :
DEMOCRATIC VOTE IN 1866 AND 1867.
StaUs. 1866. IHfiT. Gain.
! Connecticut, 43,671 44,808 834
Kentucky, 65,676 90,225 loan 5,754
N. Hampshire 30,481 32,648 2,167
Rhode Island, 2,816 3,178 362
Vermont, 10,383 10,393 10
Maine, 40,316 44,702 4,386
Total, 223,639 225,945 2,00-5
We have no returns from California on
which to base gain or loss, butas the Leg
islature is republic.au,the likelihood is that
they made no gain at all in that State on
their lormer vote.
Get lour Tickets.
Let every man who comes to town from
the country, call at the Gazete Office and
provide himself with one or more tickets.
We have plenty of them, and give them
without charge.
Every Man's Duly,
To devote at least one day to the service
of his country. U]on the actions of all
good citizens in this respect, depend good
laws and good officers. This is the real
and only mode for reform.
Dear in Mind,
There are hut two tickets properly to
vote. The Supreme Judge makes one,
and must be voted alone. All under the
head of County makes the second, and
must be voted without cutting.
"The Northern Democracy Un
doubtedly Iveep i) lie Flag oft ho
Kebciiioa Flying."
This is the luuguage of the Charlotts
ville i Va.) Chronicle, whose editor was a
rebel, but who i* anxious to see the South
restored to the Union. Complaining of
Johnson and the Northern Democracy, it
speaks in the following emphatic terms:
"We have only tooclearly defined ideas
as to what is calculated to contribute to
ward relieving the South of i!s present
embarrassing situation; the first is that
President Johnson slmli keep quiet; the
'second is that the Northern Democracy
shall disband, It is the Northern Democ
racy that is the occasion and the apology
lor the continued fusilade of the South af
ter their arms have been laid down for two
years. They say they are going to carry
j Ohio—and what good is that going to do
anybody? Can they carry the United
States? The Southern States they cannot
carry, how many Northern States can
they carry? How many? The people
• seem to us deranged—and as reckless of
the sufferings of the South, as they are
mad. So J'ar as words can do it, the
Xorthcru Democracy undoubtedly keep
i the flay of the rebellion flying. Whether
they do or not, they are regarded as so do
; ing by the public sense of the North. Tiie
; public mind there does not distinguish be
! tweeu them and the South ; a Pennsylva
niaor Vermont farmer naturally concludes
• that Mr. J'endleton and General Wise are
in sympathy with each other , and if Mr.
Pendleton recommends the repudiation of
I tiie national debt, the Pennsylvania or
! Vermont farmer believes that the South
is already scheming to inflict that fatal
stab on the national faith.
