' "f
Republicans of Bradford Co.!;
This being the last issue of the Reporter
previous to the election, we are again con
strained to address you upon the importance
of the pending election; and earnestly to urge
upon yourself, your friends and neighbors, ac
tivity for the few days that remain for action,
in the work of bringing out a full poll of the
Republican vote of your neighborhood aud
township.
The contest, in this great Central State of
the Republic, is of transccndaut interest in its
bearings upon the struggle in which we are in
volved, for the preservation of our liberties,
against the Slave Oligarchy of the South.—
When we consider that the result will largely
influence public opinion, aud the conditiou of
parties throughout the Union, we surely can
not over estimate its importance.
This is the first general election in Pennsvl
vania since the full developemeut of the pro-sla
very policy of Mr. Ruchanau's Administration
—since the open abandonment of the doctrines
and pledges put forth in his Inaugural Ad
dress—since the base conspiracy, developed
and almost consummated in the late Congress,
to foice a pro-slavery constitution upon the
people of Kansas, by seductions and bribes the
most shameful, and the most unscrupulous and
corrupt use of the public treasure. The whole
country awaits the verdict of Pennsylvania on
the policy and acts of this Administration with
intense anxiety and interest. Shall the voice
of this great State be heard in approval, or in
condemnation of the now open and undisguised
jioliey of the Natiouul Administration, to ex
tend slavery by violence and fraud over all the
Territories of the Nation ? Nay, the doctrines
now promulgated, do not stop with carrying
slavery into all our vast Territories, but would
establish Slavery under constitutional guaran
tecs in the Free States of the Union. These
new Constitutional dogmas, if sustained by the
people at the ballot-box, will become the es
tablished constitutional law of the land. We
appeal to you as Freemen, charged with the
sacred trust of guarding your own and the pub
lic liberties—as men into whose hands are
committed the interests and hopes of humnuity,
to awaken to a proper estimate of your duties
and responsibilities, and to a vigilant aud faith
ful discharge of them.
Parties are already marshalling for the Pres
idential contest before us, when a decisive and
it may be a finul battle, will be fought between
Freedom aud Slavery for the mastery in this
Government. The jiosition and streugth of the
respective parties are closely scanned—every
note of preparation, and every indication of
public feeling, watched with an anxiety, com
mensurate with the mighty interests involved
in the struggle. The next Presidential election
will in truth be decided iu advance, by the
moral and political forces displayed in the
movements and elections, that precede the di
rect vote. Pennsylvania is now to indicate her
position in the great conflict of ISGO. She is
soon to pronounce to the country the judgment
of her people, either in support or in reproba
tion of the usurpations and outrages against
liberty and law, of the Slave Oligarchy, now
linnly entrenched in all the high places of in
fluence and power.
Republicans of Bradford ! will you falter in
such an hour ? You occupy a proud position
in the ranks of the array of Freedom. The
first thunder of the battle, was heard upon your
hills, and in your valleys. Y'ou have hitherto
borue yourselves with a constancy and firm
ness, that commands the admiration of the
Country. When the history ofthese times
shall lie written, your early and noble efforts
in the cause of Freedom, shall fill one of its
brightest pages. Let it not be recorded that
you faltered in the hour of greatest ueed—that
in the very crisis of the battle, you inarched to
the iicld with weakened forces aud impaired
strength.
The party of Slavery,that installed the pres
ent administration in power, is now broken and
divided the North. The attempt
to farce upon Kansas the Lecompton Constitu
tion, provoked a formidable and determined
opposition in the rank* of the Administration
party. The anti-Lecomptou division of the
democracy is exhibiting great force iu the
strong holds of the party, in tiie south-eastern
part of the State. The Slave Power and its
administration at Washington, are greatly
alarmed, least Pennsylvania s lould desert the
black standard of Slavery—thus taking the
scepter of Power from the ha ids of the Slave
holding Oligarchy, and placing it where it right
fully belongs, in the hands of the free millions
of the North and South. A defeat now in
Pennsylvania will come with crashing and over
whelming effect, and bury the last hope of j>cr
petuating for another Presidential term, the
power and ascendency of a few hundred thous
and Slave holders.
Republicans of Bradford you can, as we
firmly believe, give a signal victory to the Ban
ner of Freedom. We earnestly appeal to you
to rally at the Polls in your full strength. We
must rely for our success upon the patriotism
of the people. The Slave Power holds the vast
public treasure in its keeping, and by a waste
ful and corrupt use of the monies of the Nation,
seeks to perpetuate its control of the Govcru
ment. The expenditure ol this Administration
has reached the euormous sum of near Our
Hundred Millions of dollars annually. It has
increased three and four fold within the last
few years, and since the policy of slavery ex
tension was systematically entered upon.
The year in which the Missouri Compromise
was repealed, the expenditures were increased
about nineteen millions over that of any former
year of peace, and last year, when the Admin
istration, by corrupt influences, sought to carry
through Congress the Lecompton Constitution,
the expenditures were again swelled near twen
ty millions above that of any preceding year.
This enormous and corrupt expenditure is the
natural fruit of the wicked and tyrannical pol
icy of Slavery. The men of the North will
not work in the business of slave propngand
ism, and to place this Government permanently
in the hands of the Slave Oligarchy, without
pay. Members of Congress must lie seduced
bv high appointments. The press and leaders
out of Congress, must be paid largely by office
and government contracts, or they will not em
bark iu the work of debauching and demoral
izing the public opinion of the North. The
Administration has a vast arm} of paid retain
ers that move at the word to do its bidding—
here iu this remote county, it has an hundred
paid men, in the post masters, most of whom
have been appointed because of their subserv
iency and willingness to work in the cause of
Slavery. On the eve of every election, men
are scut out from Washington over the whole
country with money, to influence and control
the result. We have had among ns for some
ten days or more, a notorious, profligate politi
cal trickster, fresh from Washington, and with
orders to rally the faithful, aud to sow, if pos
sible, dissensions iu the ranks of our friends.
He has heretofore been mainly busy in efforts
to get some nominal Republican iu the field
against Judge Wilraot. In this he has signally
failed. His last and fiual effort has been to
britig out a Buchauau man under pretended
" Old Line Whig" auspices.
Permit us in conclusion, to urge upon you
activity in organizing your township, and bring
ing out your voters to the polls. Will you
not spend a day or two iu this work ? ]>o not
let any dissatisfaction with our County Ticket,
if such exists in your neighborhood, keep a
voter from the polls. We would advise the
support of the whole ticket, believing the can
didates true and faithful men to our principles;
but if any Republican thinks he cannot, or
ought not to support a particular candidate,
still he should be at the polls to vote the State
Ticket—to swell the majority for Mr. Grow,
and to rebuke, by his vote for Judge Wilmot,
the shameful conspiracy set on foot last winter
to deprive the people of their constitutional
right to elect a Judge.
BEWARE 0? FRAUDS!
It is well known that an emissary of the
Administration has been dispatched to this Ju
dicial district, and has been perambulating the
Couuiy, to do the bidding of his masters.—
Let our Republican friends be 011 their guard
against all manner of Frauds and Forgeries.
This agent is the unscrupulous aud desperate
emissary of an Aduiinistratiou which has cou
nived and winked at the most infamous out
rages npon the ballot-box in Kansas. The
truest recommendation to its favor, is the depth
of political prostitution which can be reached.
In the present case, this agent is an applicant
for office, and hopes by virtue of his services
here to attain it. Beware, then ! of False
hoods uttered 011 the eve of election ! Be
ware of lying handbills, circulating the most
infamous rcjrorts ! Beware of circulars and
handbills with the names of men attached
who do not countenance the schemes now on
foot to bring out a candidate for President
Judge, but are the warm supporters of Judge
WJLMOT ! Let the frauds and outrages iu
Kansas be steadily borne in mind by our Re
publican friends, when the schemes and machi
nations of this agent of a corrupt administra
tion shall come to light.
FOLD YOtIR TICKETS.
Much vnluable time might be saved, and
mauy more votes secured by having the tickets
ou the ground before the polls are opeu, ready
cut and folded, and tied in sets— cipkl roles in
each set. So that each voter who desires it,
has a full set, and votes it too.
ISF* We learn that Mrs. Twiggs, now under
sentence of death, in the Jail at Danvile, came
near making her escape ou Tuesday evening,
Jby mukiug a hole in the wall in the room iu
which she was confined.
TO THE POLLS! !
REPUBLICANS!
ARE YOU ALL READY ?
ay The great Battle comes off on next
Tuesday! Are your Arrangements
all made for getting out
EVERY VOTEEP
If not, Lose no more Time, but work to
have a Full Poll, and a majority of
5,000!
The Issue Tendered!
When the Committee, composed of the mem
bers of the bar, and others, from this Judicial
district visited Ilarrisburg last winter, to anni
hilate this district, and prevent the people from
electing a President Judge this fall, the great
oomplaint was that Judge WJLMOT was impe
rious and tyrannical upon the Bench ; that he
was partial and biased in his decisions, and in
the distribution of his favors, that his official
counsel was marked with ail those characteris
tics which have made the name of JKFFRETS
infamous. That to such a pitch had this eon
duct arrived, that it was no longer endurable,
and the people desired some measure of relief
at the hands of the legislature to rid them of !
a Judge who had sullied the ermine,and whose !
mul-administratiou of justice had become odious
aud unpopular.
These slanders were met by Judge WILMOT
and his friends with open and flatcoutradiction.
It was denied that any such state of affairs ex
isted as was represented, or that there was any
popular disapprobation ot Judge WILMOT'S offi
cial course, further then perhaps iu individual
cases, incident to the decisions of any Pre
sident Judge. The Conventions of Bradford
and Susquehauna Counties took the earliest
opportunities to stamp the charges against
Judge WII. MOT as calumnious, ami to brand the
authors and uiterers as slanders and falsifiers.
The people were confidently appealed to, to
decide between Judge "WII.MOT and his calum
niators. To make up the issue more com
pletely he has received the unanimous nomina
tion of the Republican party of this District.
If the foul insinuations and the open and mali
cious lies uttered at Ilarrisburg last winter,
had the semblance of truth, the people would
never ratify the action of the Republican party
in presenting such a candidate for that high
and responsible position. Why do not the ae-
I tive movers in that measure accept the issue
! tendered to them ? Why do they not goto
the people of Bradford and Susquehanna and,
proving their allegations against Judge WII.-
MOT, consign him to that ignominy which, in
such a case, he would merit ? Have they no
confidence in the integrity and intelligence of
| the people? Would our citizens permit a man
to retain his scat upon the Bench, who was
proven guilty of gross partiality, of favoritism,
of want of industry, of lack of knowledge, aud
deficiency in morals and integrity ?
Throughout the canvass, no man has been
named in connection with the Judgeship, who
would test the issue made by the Couspirators
in the Legislature last winter. No member of
the bar who was engaged in that disreputable
attempt, to deprive the people of their consti
tutional right to elect a Judge, has dared to
think of submitting his conduct to the voters
for their approval or disapproval. They shrink
from such a verdict, and thereby confessing the
falsehood of their charges star.d convicted of
misrepresentation and falsehood. Before that
tribunal, to which of light belongs the duty of
disgracing Judge WII.MOT had he been guilty
of the foul crimes imputed to him, the coura
geous men who boasted and talked so loud iu
the bar-rooms and lobbies at Ilarrisburg, dare
not go with their fabricated wrongs and siniti
lated charges. They know that before the
people where Judge WII.MOT has presided for
years, they would not be tolerated in the re
tailing of the trivial and outrageous charges
which were so freely uttered to effect the ac
tion of the Legislature.
An attempt, however,has been made to avoid
an expression of the people upon the actiou of
the Conspirators last winter, by bringing some
professed Republican iuto the field, and thus
sink out of sight the disgraceful attempt to
prevent our people from electing a Judge.
Members of the bar have beea approached
with every inducement which was supposed to
be of effect to persuade them to be caudidates.
Col BULL has obeyed the bidding of his mas
ters, and employed all the artifices of which
he is master, to briug out a professed Repub
lican as a candidate for Judge, but without
avail, until the issue is attempted to be evad
ed, by bringing out PATRICK, under " Old hue
Whig " auspices.
What construction can be put upou this
failure to meet the issue tendered by the friends
of Judge W. on the part of those who attempt
ed in the Legislature to impeach his integrity
as a Judge and to disgrace bim before the peo
ple of the State ? They stand confessedly con
victed of a base and dishonorable conspiracy
to defame and crush an upright man, bv the
most despicable imd unhallowed means. But
the People, who are a strong tower of defence,
will put the stamp of their disapprobation, at
the coming election, upon the originators of
the slanders upon Judge WILMOT and triumph
antly vindicate his official and private reputa
tion from the nspcrsios of his enemies.
PRESIDENT JUDGE.
We announced in our last issue that Col. D.
M. BOLL had been despatched by the present
corrupt and profligate National Administra
tion on a missionary tour through this Judi
cial District, and that he had spent some days
at Troy in a fruitless attempt to persuade
Judge Bri.i.ocK to become a candidate. Baf
fled in this attempt, his next appearance was
at Montrose, where Mr. BENTLEY was impor
tuned for the same purpose with equal want
of success. As a dernier resort, this emissary
of the Leeomptonites fiually determined to
make a trial of H. W. PATRICK, of Athens.
We learn that the programme was, that Col.
BI LL should studiously avoid seeiug Mr. PAT
KICK, but that a committee should be seut to
him, composed of " Old Line N\ higs," to re
quest him to become a candidate for Judge,
as a means of reviving the Whig Party !
This Committee, consisting of old line Whigs
who voted for BUCHANAN, did visit Mr. PAT
RICK, and received a written answer to a com
munication addressed to him, virtually placing
himself in their hands. Mr. PATRICK, how
ever, we also understand, declares that he does
not consider himself as a candidate, nor had
he any idea that such use would be made of
his letter !
Hero we are then but five days before the
election, in uncertainty as to whether an op
posing candidate for President Judge will be
| presented to the people. As it stands, we
! suppose, Mr. PATRICK may be fairly considered
lin the field! What a spectacle is presented!
j The Administration at Washington, in its
i kindness and consideration for the people of
1 this Judicial District, despatching an emissary
! for the purpose of providing a candidate for
President Judge! COL. BULL'S arduous labors
j in pursuit of a candidate " under difficulties"
would undoubtedly form an entertaining chap
' ter, if fully written out. His sojourn at Troy,
■ and frequent expresses to Judge BULLOCK,
without success, llis hurried trip to Montrose,
and his labor with BENTLEY, with no better
; success. And to crown all, his brilliant idea
| of despatching an " Old Line Whig" commit
[ tee to overpersuade PATRICK!
1 If Col. BULL'S shrewdness is questionable,
his indefatigability is not, and really his deter
mination *" to have a candidate against WIL
MOT," deserves better success. What man, not
fresh from the atmosphere of Washington,
i could have conceived the idea of resuscitating
; the " Whig Party," for the purpose of electing
11. W. PATRICK, President Judge! Certainly
those who revere the memory of the whig par
ty must be extremely grateful to the Adminis
tration for sending one of its hirelings here at
this juncture to revive that party.
| We are not able to announce, "by the card,"
l that Mr. PATRICK is a candidate for President
Judge. We have stated facts, and our read-
I ers may draw their own conclusions. But we
advise our Republican friends to expect on
! the day of the election to find that secret mea
! sures have been adopted to bring forward a
' candidate for Judge, and the Buchaniers will
lie much interested in reviving the " old whig
i party." Au open and manly opposition would
i not suit the tastes and purposes of the men
i who have the matter in charge, but we have
I no doubt that the morning of election wilj find
! handbills and tickets distributed in the hands
of the active Leeomptonites of the Couuty.—
These endeavors should awaken the exertions
of our friends, and inspire them with a deter
mination to poll as large a vote as possible, to
rebuke the baffled conspirators who cudeavor
ed, by legislative action to prevent the people
from electing their own Judge.
ONE VOTE.
Remember one vote has decided mighty
events in the political history of the world.—
One vote has decided the fate of Kings, made
Governors, Congressmen and Senators. Then
fail uot every freeman, to go tcr the polls and
cast a vote for the true Republican candidates
whose names are found at our head. Do not
fulter or stay at home because you may think
there is, or will be enough without you. If
all were to make such excuses for themselves,
of course we should fail electing any one, or
leave the matter in the hands of those, who
might for unworthy motives, attend and con
trol your sentiments.
TURN OUT EARLY
and vote and work till the battle is fairly
fought and the victory gloriously won, and like
worthy uubought freemen proudly boast and
wear it.
