Thursday Morning, November 13, 1879.
HON. V. E. PIOLKTTE, the Master,
has culled the annual meeting of the
State Grange at Bloomsburg, on the
9th of December next. •
A COLOSSAL e<]ucstriaii statue of
(ten. George A. Thomas is to he unveil
ed in Washington, on the 20th instant.
It is the contribution of the Array of
the Cumberland to the memory of the
great soldier, and cost s4<>,oOo.
TIIE repudiators of Virginia have
been successful mainly through the
colored Republican vote of the
State. The Republican capitalists of
the North who hold Virginia 1 Kinds
will appreciate the favor.
THE lifleosi Southern States, with
Missouri, Indiana and New York, give
18* Electoral votes. These will be
Democratic, and will secure the elec
tion of a Democratic President in
188(). To these may lie added, pretty
safely, Oregon, California and New
.Jersey, autl perhaps ('onnecticut.
THV*irrepreßsible Benj. F. Butler
chiim.* that he owes his defeat to a de
ficiency of votes. That is most proba
bly true. But he says also that there
are about 100,000 citizens disfranchis
ed in Massachusetts, and intimates hi*
intention to have thi* remedied before
his next contest for < iubernatorial
honors.
SENATOR BAYARD and wife arriv
ed at homo from their trip to Europe
on Friday evening last. He stole a
march u|>on hi* friends and neighbors,
who were prepared to give him a
grand reception. Arriving unexpect
edly, he quietly got into a carriage
aud drove to his residence before lie
was discovered. Like the g eat man
he is, he did not court notoriety.
THE Washington Pod proposes the
nomination of the Hon. Horatio Sey
mour, of New York, and Senator Jos.
McDonald, of Indiana, a* the Demo
cratic candidates for President and
Vice President of the United Stiites.
Senator McDonald promise* the Hon.
Thomas A. Hendricks, of Indiana,
and Clarkson N. Potter, of New York,
a* the candidates. Either combina
tion will make a strong and winning
team.
HOOTEN, the chairman of the Re
publican State committee, returns
thanks and congratulations to "every
Republican in the State, and to all
others who aided in securing the vic
tory of November 4th." The "all
others" must mean the Democrats
who staid at home on election day.
Their aid was about as efficient as
that of the Republican* who voted,
and they certainly deserve Hooten's
thanks.
Tii r. death of Henator Chandler cre
ates a vacancy in the chairmanship of
the Republican Notional Executive
Committee which will probably lie
difficult to fill satisfactorily to the va
rious stalwart interests. Conkling, it
is said, favors the appointment of his
man Cornell, the Governor elect of
New York. This selection is obnox
ious to Hhcrman, and viewed with any
thing but complacency by Hlaine.
Rut the shot-gun hero's lash is potent
against Sherman, and Hlaine may not
desire to encounter it.
THE New York Tribune concedes
that "the New York Democracy will
present a united front in 18*0," but
says "it is by no means certain what
sort of a motto will be inscribed upon
its standard." When the Democracy
of New York are united they are sure
to win, and the Tribune may be as
sured that if united they will carry a
motto that will meet the approval v.
the Democracy of the country. For
the Presidential canvas it will l>e—
"Equal and exact justice to all" the
Htates.

The rnguex altout Washington are
still plying their occupation of ewin
tiling the unsuspecting. The Corn mi*-
! sioner of PeoAionj* received the follow
ing letter from an aged female pen-
I sioner:
DEAR SIR : I wish to know if Mr.
ha* any right to any pay. He says he
got the arreArs ot (tensions bill through
congress. 1 thought it took two thirds
of the members to pass a law. He
wrote me before I got my cheek to
know how much I would give. I told
the man that filed my papers to put
down $25. 1 would like to know if he
is trying to swindle mo (an old woman
75 years of age), or shall 1 give it to
him. I enclose the papers he sent me.
To which the commissioner replies
that no one ha a right to make such
demands, and it is only an attempt to
levy a tax upon her credulity and gen
erosity. The papers referred to in the
letter arc circulars sent out by the
swindlers claiming compensation for
services rendered in obtaining the pas
sage of the law granting arrears of
pensions.
<'o!KLi!*o nnd his friends must be
nmused at the complaint of Sherman
nnd Kvarts that they had to do the
work of electing Cornell, while the
imperious Senator rolled himself up in
hi* magnificence and did nothing.
They may well laugh, knowing that
the shot-gun hero did much, and did
it in away to make his triumph over
the fraudulent administration com
plete and perfect in their stultification,
lie forced the nomination of Cornell,
whom the administration repudiated
and degraded, and then lashed them
into harness with the Tammany chief
to secure his election, while he stood
back in gleeftil inactivity to witness
their humility.
BKLLEFONTE, I'A., THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 13, IHT'.I.
Proparo for 1800
It i* unnecessary to urge upon the
DomiicraU of I'cnnsylvuuia tliu abso
lute necessity of a thorough organiza
tion of Hie party for the contest of
IKBO. The party, says the Ilarrisburg
J'utriot, no douht recognize* the fact
that without such organization it will
IK; vain to hope for success in the
State. There ure those, however, who
are too willing to regard Pennsylva
nia as lost to the Democracy and who
are therefore ready to abandon the
State to the enemy. To such we
would -av that the voting strength of
tin- Pennsylvania Democracy has not
Iwen fully exhibited at the |K>ll* for
many years. The party has not IM-CII in
thorough voting drill since I*G* when
in spite of the popularity of Grant,
oil the test vote in October the Repub
lican* had but a beggnrly majority of
about nine thousand. Since then the
Republican party has been greatly
weakened in many counties, notably in
the central, northern and western |ior
lions of the State. Rut superior disci
pline still give* them numerical sti
|>eriority at the jsills. There ure
about 7->0,900 voters that can be
brought to the election in a presiden
tial year. A change of two vote* in
every hundred of tin- 7.V1,000, from
one party to the other, would make
a difference, in the aggregate, of •><,-
A change of four in every
hundred against the dominant party
would wi|>e out a majority of GO.OOO.
Now there can IK- no ipiestion that if
the Democratic party i* properly or
ganized and disciplined for I**o that
a change of four rot'* in every hundrnl
against the Republicans and in favor
of the Democrat* can lie made at the
presidential election. Sup|Kisc that
active Itcinocrats of each election dis
trict were to resolve to make this
change of four in every hundred
Votes, who douht* hut that it Would lie
. done ? Rut in order that the workers
!in the election di-triet* mav IK- cn
couragi-d to undertake the ta*k there
must lie a head of the organization
who will show them that the work can
lie done, how it is to be done, and
who will see that it is done. And the
sooner this work of organization is be
gun the lietter. The State convention
for the election of delegates to the
National convention and the uom'ina
tion of the State ticket ought there
fore to IK- held at an early day. It is
important that the State committee
whirh is to conduct the canvas* next
year lie chosen as soon a* jsissihlc, so
that the preliminary work of organi
zation may IK- completed IK-fore the
speaking canvns* which is inevitable
in a presidential year shall have be
gun. The organization of Democratic
clulis, the placing of iKnnocratic
newspapers in the hands of the voters,
and like preparations for the cam
paign ought not to lie neglected be
yond the first month of the new year,
lint it is more than likely that they
will not lie generally thought of unless
the State committee take the matter
in hand and adopt and enforce soma
system in regard to it. Those
gest ion* are made simply

battle when with
reotcd effort it can IK;

sons of Harrisburg celebrated its Cen
tennial anniversary on Tureday ladt,
having been instituted on the 10th of
November, 1779. Officers of the
Grand I/odge, with other distinguish
ed Masons were present, and made ap
propriate addresses. I)r. \V. H. Ra
gle read an interesting history of tlie
Izodge since its organization.
TIIB elector* of the State of Indi
ana, will vote on the first Monday of
April next on an amendment to the
Conntitution, changing the time for
holding election* to November. If
election* in all the State* were held on
the *ame day, a wholesome check
would be given to fraudulent voting
hv importation from contiguous States.
A Pur® Ballot.
The election held in Philadelphia
on the fourth of November last, was a
parody on the purity of the ballot.
Already evidence enough has accu
mulated to convince, even the. most
malevolent partisan, tliut the whole
thing was simply a roaring farce, a
recking comedy. There is not, we be
lieve, an honest Republican within the
corporate limits of Pennsylvania's
great metropolis, who does not think
that the returns offered a* the result of
the late election, are knowingly incor
rect and a dclibcratg pcrvcr-ion of the
expressed will of the people. The elec
tion officers, who assumed their respon
sible jiositioiis under the solemnity of an
oath, steeped their souls in jwrjury to
lay this offering of fraud and violence
ti|H.n the altar of a depraved Republi
can domination. We do not believe
there is an honorable man u|s>u either
side, who will not now acknowledge
that the Republican vote a* announ
ced on the evening of the fourth of
NOVCUIIKT wa* false and fraudulent.
There i* not a man in Philadelphia
who took sufficient intend in the elec
tion to note what was going on, who
does not know that the number of
votes a* returned never went through
the windows.. The elation machinery
is in the hand- of a* desperate and bold
a set of men a* ever curx-d a free coun
try. The fact that stand* out in Isold
relief is sitnply this: The vote for
Butler in Philadelphia i* over four
thousand more than that ra-t for Gen*
" ral Iloyt. Every one knows that the
election !at year for Governor wa- of
the most exciting character, and that
an active, vigorous and demonstrative
campaign wa* carried on by Ix.th par
ib-s. The public intcr*st wa* arou*sl
and a full Vote wa* of course the con
sequence. The election this year *•
distinguished by nothing more than
the apathy of party leaders and the
indifference of the people. And vet
in the face of this, the political rotind
dcrs who answer for Republican elec
tion officers in the first city of our
Commonwealth return in this otr year
a larger vote thnii was cast for I loyt
It i time that this monstrous, organi
zed system of fraud should he strieken
down, and the Democracy of the coun
try earnestly call upon the true heart
ed, loyal and unselfish men of the |>ar
ty in Philadelphia, to Iteitd their en-
orgies to the tak of bringing these j
scoundrel* to deserved punishment. I
Full rein and scope seem to haye|
la-en given to the repeater's
and the large majority given Hutler T
is due to their system of false persona- j
tion. Let Van* and McGowan, and
Caasidy ami Hamlall forget tor a
while their personal grievances, and I
unite in vindicating the Democratic ]
party of both City and State by the !
prompt and faithful prosecution of all j
concerned in this gigantic fraud. Can ■
it le that such proceedings a these are
to go ' X /u *' justice ? Is there j
no whose duty it is to
/ |>ondous outrage UJMIU j
this mockery of free
-11 v prepared for. The
PPonsors of these men sit in the high
places of power, and the time ha now
come w hen I x-ods, Stokely, lauie and
Ilowen should know that they are not
omnipotent; that there is a power be
hind the throne, mightier than the
throne itself. Outraged decency will \
relentlessly drag them to the bar of
public opinion, and the verdict will be
that they should be remanded forever
to the obscurity that always, sooner or
later, envelopes the faithless servants
of the people. In the meantime, while
awaiting the stern retribution that cer
tainly ami surely will overtake the
masters, we call for the condign pun
ishment of the servants. Lane plants
and Htokely waters, hut just as sure as
comes seed time and harvest, will
these men share with their dupes, if
not the imprisonment which awaits the
re|M-ater, the just and merited condem
nation of all honest HMO. This they
deserve and should receive.
II Y the election of Waldo liuteh
iiiM, Democrat in the West Cheder
District, New York, vacant by the
death of Smith, Republican, the roll
of the popular branch of Congress is
now complete, and gives u close ma- i
jority of three over the combined vote
of the Republicans and Greenbacker.-.
The disintegration of the Greenback
party as an organization is so entire
tliut the members elected by that
party will probably seek their old af
filiations in the Dcpioeratic and Re
publican ranks. This will probably
increase the working majority of the
Democrats in the House to 11 or 12.

Prohibitionists 2.534, giving the Repub
