of these Democrats of prominence who

would have been wholly unable te dis
play a like spirit of self sacrifice and

mlttee, it sms, has been trying te get
credit--for Arthur's administration
being almost entirely free from official
defalcations, and they have circulated
as a campaign decumeut a report pro pre
pared by Acting Secretary of the Treas
ury Coen, which puts the total ameuut
eC government defalcations in the last
three years at $6,001.09.
Secretary rest,ef the Democrats nnn.
, crtasienal committee, exposes the fraud
"- ia this exhibit by showing that In the
-jjxrpatt three years the aegreate amount
j;fer which suit has been brought by the
"' ? 'i'.; ft ' ft-Wi'
government for defalcations is 91,C60,
733.77 ; and that if te this sum was added
the estimated amount of defalcations by
public officers, where suits have never
been brought te rocever,tho totaljameuut
would feet up ever 0,000,005 Instead
of $5,801.00.
The only reply niade te this exposition
is that defalcations cannot be con
sidered te be such until judgment is
recovered against the defaulter. Of
course the government eillcers have net
badtimoleget many judgments upon
the defalcations for the past three years.

At the Tammany hall meeting lu New
Yerk, Filday evening an nddrens "te the
Diimocratle party of the United States"
was reported. After referring te the
fact that the Tammany organization is the
eldest political organization lu the Vnltcd
States, and te its past history, the address
states that the tariff agitation by Tarn
many Hall resulted in drawing attention te
the necessity of such rcduotteu of duties
as v,euld provide meaus sufttcicut for the
requirements of gevernment and ntthe
same ttrue afford the incidental protection
necessary te American labor, and says :
"We have advocated at all times a reduc
tion of taxation, muuieipal, state and
federal. Heme rule and local self govoru gevoru goveru
mcut have always been cardinal principles
of Dcuioeracy iu Tammany Hall We
have at all times opposed centralization of
power as dangerous te our Rspublictu iu
ststutieus, aud have uet hesitated te cou ceu
dmu unnecessary, unjust aud uudenio uudenie uudenio
cratle interference of tbe state Legislature
and executive in our muuieipal alfairs.
We championed the ciuse of nuti nuti nuti
monepoly in 1831 and the ensuing eam
paigu of 18S2, that resulted iu the
triumphant election of the present
governor c-f the state.''
The address then recites that the Tam
many organisatien favered many measures
before the late Lesislature, but which
wote defeated by Republicans uniting
with recreant Democrats and by vjteas of
Governer Cleveland. Thu ruldrcss says
that ether instances might be mentioned
te warraut the opposition shown te the
nomination of Clevnland te the presidency.
It then cluvaMvs eveuW connected with
the Tildcn and Hancock campaigus,
claiming loyalty te the party en the pait
of Tamminy. It then refers te the List
national Domecratio convention, and says:
" While we were celebrating the nnuuer
sary of our national independence our op
ponents took overy occasion te prejudics
the minds of the delegates at Chicago
againut us. We presented our arcuments
te the individual and assembled delegates
te the national convention and were iU
barred the right te speak excoptbythe
consent of the delegates from the ether
states, and were prohibited, uuder the
uudemocratte unit rule, from casting
our ballets for candidates of our
cboice. We failed net in our
duties te our c mstltucnts who sent us,
nor te the party whose representatives
we were. And if any mistake has been
made it is net of our deiuc. and cannot ba
charged te us. The candidates of the
Democratic party having been nominated
in the national convention, following the
nulferm and uubrelccn record et our
organization, wa acq-iiesce in the will of
the majority of tbe representatives of the
party, although we holicve that will te
have been unwisely expressed. Thera is
hut ene alternative for ua te sever our
commotion with the Democratic party.
This vi e caunet and will net de. In justice
te our consclence and judgment we can
uet pursue- that oeurso, for we bellove that
time will disconnect the great Democratic
party from the leadership of men who
have U6ed their power unwisely and de
trimentally te its success. Woacquieseo
in; although protesting egainst, the unwise
and injudicious oeurso which they pur
sued. We sav. with Jehn Ailamn. ii.it
I ' lUsra in no geed government but; what is
repueucan, ler a tepufjhe is au omptre
of laws uet of men.' The mistaken ei
men cannot blind us te the beauties and
immortal principles of the Democratic
party, and for the perpetuation of theae
principles our organization was estab
lished. "Under the Damecratia party the citizen
is protected at home and abroad, and the
speedy release of Martin Koszta is nn in
stance te show with wliat celerity the
protection of the United States was thrown
around the American citizsn under a
Democratic administration aud a secretary
of state like William L. Marey as oom eom oem
pared with the doubting aud halting policy
of a Republican secretary of state, James
Q. Blaine, during the presidency of Gar
field, in allowing MoSwetney and ether
adopted eitizenB of thu United States,
against whom no charges were alleged or
preven, te linger for months iu a British
dungeon. We believe in the Domecratio
party and Us immortal principles. Men
make mistakes; its representatives and
Ieadera may bj inconsistent, time serving
nud lack the strength of their convictions,
but in it are liberty te be found, freedem
of thought, froedorn of Bpeech aud action,
and protection te every citizen allke.
"Fer the roaseus herein set forth we
rocemmond this organization te support
the nominees of the Domecratio party for
president and vice president, made at
Chicago en Friday, July 10, 1834, aud
Bubmit for its consideration and adoption
the following resolution :
"lietelced, That we the Democratic

and county of New Yerk, iu Tammauy

the nominations made by the national
Demoeratio convention held iu Chicago
July 10, 1834, for president, Grever Cleve
land, of New Yerk ; for vioe president,
Themas A. Hendricks, of Indiana, and
bereby pledge ourselves te an earnest und
cordial support of the candidates se nomi
nated." Er State Senater Grady oppose! the
adoption of tbe aJdresi and resolution.
denounced Governer Cleveland, the mana
gers who secured Ills' nomination, and
declared himself a follower of Benjamin F.
Butler.
Applauee aud hisses groeted the rediug
of the addres. Fer some time it was
doubtful which prevailed, but finally the
oheors get the host of It.
Iu meviug the adoption of the address
General Spmela said that the mero wheel
ing into line of Tammany Hall would net
secure thoelcetion of the Uhloage candi
dates. The Democrats of the whole coun ceun
try inuBt aNe wheel into line. It was pos
sible even at this late de te saateh vlo vle
tcry from the laws of defeat. When Gen.
Spinola sat down ex-Senater Themas F.
Grady demanded recognition of the chair.
Mr, Grady was cheered evon mero heartily
than Mr. Kelly had been. Tiie chairman
peunded en his table for quiet in vain.
The crowd would net become quiet. Dur
ing the uproar Mr. Grady took a position
en the platform next te the chair. He
was at last permitted te proeeod. After
the first soatenoo he wa3 again loudly ttp ttp
plauded, and rounds of applause punotu punetu
ated hlB octlre speech.
Beurke Cochrane, who was expected te
onderso the action of Mr. Grady, made a
spoceh, amid much excitement, in favor of
the resolution. Jehn Kelly, although
called en, declined te make a spoeoh, The
roll was called, and resulted iu 810 yeas
and 87 nays. A coramlttee was then
appointed te make nrrangements for a

and Davis, Cel. Jehn R. Fellows, Ilspre
tentative Cenveise, ex Governer Carrel
and Hen, "Wm, A. Wallaoe, Following
are seme of the striking features of the
lattcr's address :
Thore nre two great Itsucs for the
Aroerleaii peeple te decide lu the pending
contest. Of these the first nud principal
oue Is botwren offlelal honesty ou the ene
slde and corrupt administration upon the
ether. This issue gees te the very llfe of
thorepublio itself nnd the highest In
tcrests of the poeplo, both collectively
nnd as individuals, are Iuvelved iu the
struggle. Leng centimnvl posscssleu of
the public oftlecs by thew uew in power
has caused them te be held as places for
private gain nnd net as public trusts. The
maohincryef the Rovenninint is unused
for the protection of the poeplo against
cfilclal corruption aud is only vigorous
against thelr eflerts for a change of nfU
clals aud purity of aJtniuistr.ui'in. The
ether and perhapi au equally itnpertnut
Iwtn U that which affects the business in
terests of the whele people and Involves
ecouemy of administration and rcduetiuu
of taxation.
''The busiucas interests of the peeple are
involved in the question of taxation, nud
thore must be seme causu for the prcfcnt
stagnation iu busiuess. Furnaces nre
being blown out; iron and cotton mills are
ruaniug upon half lirue; ceke evens and
coal mines are paying starvation wants;
the people are suiltriug and the ability te
gain a livelihood bears harder and Mill
harder upeu thore who toil; values are
shrinking aud well,uit;li armed warfare
proves that thore U difficulty between sapt
tal ami labor
" What is the cause of all these ills ?
What is the remedy ? Tlicsu are the
questiers te whleh, as rc.iseuiug and
reasonable men, we should nddrcts our
selves. The masses of the American
peeple seek 10 de right, and party bias and
party zeal will always yield before truth,
jnstice and undisputed facts. We chnrge
upon the Republican party that their
policy of large grants of public lands te
railroad corporations nnd their high taxa taxa
tien uf the peeple te maiutaiu an enormous
surplus of mouey iu the federal treasury nre
the leading causes of our p.-cseut busiuess
distress, aud especially are they the causes
of the glut of produe'iou, the ghit of labor
aud the misery nud d. stress of the miner,
the artisan and the agriculturist. We
charge, tee, that uuder Republican rule,
and as a result of Republican policy, our
commerce has been swept from the seas,
that our Hag Is fcearcely seen upon the
ocean, that the carrying -ii our own produc
tions out of our own pertsby whiuh our mer
chants nnd seamen could have earned
4100,000,000 annually has rohe te British
and German shippers, that, our ports of
Baltimore and Philadelphia can scarce
give decent support te their nilet force.
and that ' thousands ei tens of American
vessels lie ldle at the wharves of our great
seaports, while the sea is white with the
sails aud the sky is dark with the smeke
of the great merchant HeeU of ether
nations, wbieh swarm te our shores and
transact the great carrying trade that our
own vessbls de net seem able te take a
busy part in.' Their poliey affeeting tas tas
atleu, their statues granting publie lands
and their stolidity as te our bhipping and
commercial interests have shrunken our
trade, whilst our iuventive genius and the
vast tide of immigration have yielded
capacity ler production in a largely in
creased ratio. The result is business de
pression and overproduction, glut aud
misery.
"The policy that produces and main
tains in the federal treasury a surplus of
ever iw,yuu,uw is an unnecessary bunion
and destrers our imlintriin. Tn it mnm
than all eTaeis a'trItmtatjre-th,.i.uiuues
paralysis et tue present hour. This money
comes from the earnings of the psople and
if it were new back in the chaunels of trade
aDd thu poliey that produced it wero re-
versed every artery of commercial, finan
cial, mining and manufacturing life would
throb with renewed energy. It would
stimulate enterprise and give employment
te labor. A redundant revenue, an ever
flowing treasury, new vaults required te
held the surplus moneys, continued taxa
tien, thousands of workmen idle, strikes
ami lockouts, doprcssien in business hew
strange the contrast, hew fatuiteus the
peucy tuat produces it.
" Lord Baecn compares raoney te man
ure. If gathered la heaps it does no geed
but becomes offensive Beini? surer. d
though ever se thinly ever the surface of
ine earth, it enriches the whele country.
" We beheve in lessened taxation and
economy in administration. Just se much
meney as is necessary te administer the
government honestly and with economy
should be taken from the people and no
mero. Every dollar taken, beyond this is
a restriction upon liberty and an unwar
ranted exaction. Eich added tax says te
the citizen : 'Yes, yenr earnings are
yours ;) hcr.-tofero you might spend thorn
as you pleased, but hereafter you shall net
de se ; we will spend it fe. your geed or
keep it in the surplus,'
"If we leek at this subjeet from the
standpoint of the artisan, the miner or the
laborer we shall find reduction et taxation,
just revision and cheap government mere
vital te him than te his employer. They
have came te learn that the remedy for the
evils that affect them is uet through gov
ernment aid, but through themselves. They
can best help themselves by lowering taxa
tien in every form, by reducing the cost
of local state and federal administration
and returning te honest government.
Publio economy represents ether factors
than figures. It beoemes te hundreds of
thousands a vast personal and individual
benefit, for it affects their lives and these
dependent upon thorn. The fraction of
one per emt. that in the form of taxation
suppresses a business or leisens waces
or snertens neurs ei labor may be
and often is the cause of suffering
anu ueata in many a nema. Twenty

SUbbed in a Scheel lloein,
Friday morning the publie high school
of West Chester, was the sceno of much
oxeltement, owing te a small boy, named
Charles Samples, deliberately stabbing a
oempanion, name Wllmer Palmer, as the
latter was passing from n class room te
his seat. The wound was made by a
geed sized pocket knlfeln the thigh, and
it is said that young Samples did the act
without provocation, he being solely
actuated through a love for sanguinary
exploits. The injured boy was taken into
the prineipil's room, whence, after being
peoperiy eared for, he was tairen te his
home. The young desperado will most
likely be arrested and punished for his
offense.

Jenathau Wilsen, living near Robrert
town, met with a serious accident by the
cars en Friday afternoon, at Brulmker's
crossing below tbe rolling mill cast of
that village. Mr. Wilsen ia aged G9 years
and Is aomewhat feeble. Shortly after
flve o'clock he walked te Brubnker's farm,
east of Rohrerstown, te purchase butter,
and started te return by the railroad traek.
A freight train was passing cast at the
time, and Mr. Wilsen steed en the north
traek, presumably with his back te tbe
Harrisburg accomedation, whleh was
rapidly approaeblng from the rear. Mr.
Wilsen wasstruek by tbe train and hurled
a few feet te tbe north of the track.
The train was promptly stepped and the
injured man conveyed te his home by
Messrs. Jacob M. Suavely, Frank Hng Hng
gerty, Harry Hershey and ethers. Docter
Martin Ringwalt was summoned, and it
was found that Mr. Wilsen'H left arm was
broken nt the elbow and his face was
badly cat. The plate containing the
butter in the basket was broken te piees-i,
and It is possible that semn of the outs ou
bis face were caused by flying pieces of
crockery.
Mr. Wilsen Is the father of Mrs, Dr, M.
