~.GEORGE W. BRINK
TILE TWEET.
The issue of the 'Umtata last week'
followed so quickly after-the conven
tion that we were unable to refer to
the ticket in any extended manner.
The: gentlemen composing the ticket
are generally so well known that it
hardly seems worth while tocall the
at ten t 7 on of Rep abliciiisloThem.
The candidate for Congress, Hon.
B. LAPORTE, is emphatically a farmers',
Candidate. A farmer himself,-4,h
a meretheo:etical one, but a practi-'
cal tiller of the, soil, fully imbued
with the doctrine of individual rights,
and against the usurpation of cOr
porate power. We have witnessed
al() gradual encroachment of the
money power of the country upon
the rights of individuals, until the
great mass of the people are at the
mercy of associated capital. , Mr.
LAPORTE is a fair representative of
the people upon every material issue
between the Republican and , Demo
cratic parties, and as such is entitled
to the united support of the Repub
lcan party of this congressional dis
trict; and most especially should the
industriaLclasses turn out and give
im their support. They should
seize the opportunity now offered
them as a tribute to their t political
Llterests, - and bring their whole force
tinitect to the polls on the 3d of No
vlpmber in support of Mr. LAPORTE.
I As if to make the issue more direct
iietween the power of corporations
on the one hand, and individual
rights on the other, the Democratic
prty have, placed in nomination
against Mr. LAPORTE the President of
the First National Bank of Towanda,
— l an institution which divides annu
ally 16 . per cent.' not profit to its
stockholders, besides a large annual
pkofit placed to credit of the surplus
hind of the bank. ACongreSs
com
posedof bank presidents wouldlardly
bb expeete - d to so legislate as 4) make
in l oney easy of_ access to the people:
We have no desire to misrepiesent
AfT. POWELL or a, him injustice on
the subject, but it must be apparent
td the most casual observer that his
itterests are all in favor of continu
irtg the national bank monopoly and
opposed to frbe bavking, as such a
treasure of relict for the people would
interfere with his" personal pecuniary
interests.
The industrial classes, of whatever
o caption, are personally interested
in the election of Arr. LAPORTE, be-
c4nso he is favor of levying such
rates- of - diity on imports as will pro
tect the labor of the country and in
sure to it a just remuneration.
Rec
ognizing the existing necessity for
the Collection of about two hundred
Millions of dollaric annually from cus
tom duties on' imported merchandize,
i
toward the current expenses of the
. go
vernthent and the gradual liquida
tion- of-the-national debt, he will so
vote as to protect the labor of the
country against the importations
from foreign countries, produced by
the pauper laboi of. Europe.
Mr. PowELL, the Democratic oppo
n nt of Mr. LAKIRTE, is not only the
re resentative of the money power
against the people, but he is also an
aNiowed free-trader, —it principle
which, if carried out, would, perforce
ofcircumstances, drive the govern
nif iat to a system Of direct taxation
in 'order to meet' the current expen
,
BC3 ; a, system of toxittion which
would be levied per capita, and would
fall upon all classes alike—the poor
asl well as the rich. Virtually the
contest' is' narrowed to thee° issues,,
;
I -
anti every.material interest is there
fore interested in the election of Mr.
L.Airoarr..
tor State Senator Hon. H. L. Scorn
was selected. Mr. S., although he
•
has -held important -posts of &tat,
has never been an office-seeker. His
excellent business qualifications and
steking integrity have • frenently
stt4gested him in times of emergency.
When the Internal Revenue laws
went into effect, and so much 'de
petided upon the honest and faithful
perif'ormance of duty by the revenue
offibers of the government, he Wi‘s
api3ointed to the collectorship of this
disirict; and discharged .the onerous
-Amt complicated duties to well that

- -
Gnearr's first term he voluntarily re
linquished the office, and has since
divided his attention between the
care of his farm and .several other
important trusts of a private charac
ter, requiring; just the qualifications
necessary in an honest public official.
He is rititled 'o, and will receive, the
support °fall - true Republicans.
For Representatives, 0. D. KINNEY,
Wu. Muesli, and Dr. E. G. DUCEY
are the candidates. They are all
young men, none of whom have ever
held any office. Mr. Knarr comes
from-ti family well known throughout
the canty. His grandfather repre
sented this county in the legislature
at ani early day, and more recently
two Of his uncles have filled the same
position with more than ordinary
ability. Mr. KM:MT while but a mere
boy offered his services to the coun
try at the breaking'oat of the rebel
ion; the regulations prohibiting boys
of — hie ege from enlisting did not
deter him, for he immediately sought
and obtained a situation- as drum
mer-b,oy,.which positio e held until
he'bicame old enough to bear the
musket. He continued ith the army
until the close of the w r, when ho
returned to his home in • heshequin
and engaged in the mercantile busi
-
ness.l His reputation among those
who know him best is that of an
honeSt, prudent business man of
more than ordinary ability, and en
tirely worthy the eupport of the party.
Mr. 3loscen , is well known through
th_e_ eastern portion of the county.
Brought upon a farni where he was
compelled to labor from early - morn
to lite at night, he still found time
to cultivate his mind, and before he
arrived at maturity had become a
useful and successful teacher in the
common schools; He has never be
fore been an aspirant. for any office,
but ie thoroughly posted in poliecal
histo t ry. A farmer by profession he
has made himself familiar with the
science of a,griculture, and never al
lows 'an opportunity for the improve
ment of hie class to pass unimproved.
It is most gratifying and encouraging
to the young agricultural class of thei
comity to see one of their nuaabei
honored' with a nomination for' so
important a position, and we doubt
not they will see to it that he gots a
good I vote.
S. V. AIIV . 011.; D
The other candidate, Dr. 'LUCE;
is a practicing physician of a good
deal Of eminence in his professior..
He is very popular with all ' classes
within the circle of his acquaintanc4
and sill receive a large vote in the
western part of the county. HO is
thoroughly identified with the inter
ests of the county and will prate a
useful legislator.
The renomination of Moiuus
ARD was a deserved testimony_ to a
faithful; conscientious, and able pub
lic officer. No act of his official or
private life required explanation or
defense. A man of superior judg
ment,) independent thought and
action, he is just the man to whom
the financial interests of the county
should be entrusted.
CaOt..Gr.o. V. MYER, the nominee_
for Bounty Surveyor, is a rising
young man. Ho 'received a thorough
i •
mathematical education; and is_ a
good Civil engineer. In the fall of
18G1 ho enlisted in the 50th Pa. Vol.
and Served in the
__army until the
close of the war. At the expiration
of his ..first term of eniistment he - re
enlisted for three years more. By
braveiy and other soldierly qualities
he rose to the position of a captain,
and through all the different grades
olrank received the highest commen
dations from his superior officers.
Ho never,asked for nor received a
furlough, except when the whole reg
iment were grunted thirty days leave
of ab i sence, He was at the front
with
,his regiment all the time, with
the exception of eight months which
ho spent as a prisoner in a rebel pen.
The office of county surveyor is an
important one at this time, and we
earnestly hope it •will not be over
looked\on the day of election. Mr.
ALTER has always been an earnest Re
publican, and merits on that account,
as well as his fitness and army rec
ord, a large vote'.
Forithejmportant office of County
Auditor no better selection than that
of G. W. BRISK, Esq., could- have
been made. From long experience,
in business the duties of ths Office:
will be familiar to him,: and his es
tablishad_reputation for strict intet;
rity and unflinching fidelity is a suf
ficiant guarantee that no improper
bills will be approved with his con
sent.

When in 1,865 , an act was before
the. Legislature regidafiog. the carry
ing of passengas on street - railways,
the discussion called out' all the pecu
liar bitterness Of opposition for which
the. Democracy were so . fampus in
their'hate Of the colored race. JOHN
L crrA, the pt . & :ent Democratic can
didate for Lieuteaant Governor, was
a member of the Senate at that Period
and voted against everv:proposition
to give the colored people equal rights
on such public conveyances. In the
coarse of the debate on the resolution
referred to Mr. LAIT t fiercely de
glared;
hold that all's propositcbn is one
step towards the organization of a
monarchical form of government in
this country. This State, the Union
of. States, mid the Government of the
:Union—them were all formed on the
broadest principles of democratic
equality—upon the doctrine of "equal
rights"to all—upon the very laws of
nature itselfand they afford a living
illustratioi of equality among men,
and ineqttality among those whom
God saw fit to make unequal. I
hold that the wealthiest negroes are
not equal with the white people of
this country, and that any law or pro.
vision which proposes to raise them to
an equality with the while men ff
America IS A STEP TOWAREA THE ran-
IsIATION OF A MONARCHICAL FORM OF
GOVERNMETT.
When in 1864 a constitutiol it
amendment Was proposed to confer
the right of the elective franchise on
Pennsylvania soldiers in the field
fighting for the Union, lens 'ATM,
then in the Slnate, spoke and toted
against the measure, doing all in his
power to defeat it. Among the r:a
sons, given for this opposition to en
franchise the soldiers of the Union
Was that men who bear.arms are not
fit to exercise an elective franchise,
and another that the proposed
amendment was contrary to the gen
ius of our institutions.
It is for services like these that the
Democracy of Pennsylvania now
honor Joii LATTA, becanse he did
littre other work while in theLegis
latnie save that of delivering bitter
partisan speeches against all propci
sitin 3_ to secure the liberty of the
slave and do honor to the soldiers
who were defending the Ujiion which
the slaveholders were waking a trait
orous war to destroy.
THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION
Inipired by their seaming success
last year in the unexpected election
of one of their candidates, the Dem
ocrats of this county came together
on Thursday last for the purpose of
nominating a ticket. Candidates were
numerous, and !the l anti-Thou.st fac
tion in the ascendancy. A caucus of
thelingleaders was held in the fore
noon, and a slate:prepared:which was
put through without regard to the
wishes of anybody.
The Convention was called to order
at 1 o'clock by Col. H. B. iIIcKnAN.
The list of townships Was called and
delegates enrolled. E. HERRICK, Esq.,
of Athens, was, called to the Chair,
and S. W. I UC'K and C. E. FERGUSON
elected Secretaries.
The' programme laid out by the'
caucus was then strictly carried out.
No-candidate was prcsejGd. for Con
griss, but conferees favoMle to the
nomination of Jos. POWELL were ap
pointed. DELOS . ROCKWELL was nom
inated for State Senator ; Major U.
TERRY, J. E. PIOLLET and PELEG PECK,
4r., were nominated, for Representa
tives ; S. H. INGEESALL, of South
Creek, was the choice for Commie.
Sioner ; FOYLE for District At
terneyt ; A. H. BALDWIN for Auditor,
and FRANK MAY!. , TARD for County Sin

Personally many of the candidates
are fair men, and all that. can be said
against them is that they are in bad
company.
UNTORTUNATE.—It is unfortunate
for the Democratic party that it can
not control the ruffians which belong
to it long enough to get into power.
Just Wben it needs public confidence
it loses it. Just when the pe )ple are
beginning to feel that the party has
reformed and means well, and that
the devil has been cast out of it, the
cloven foot shows itself, and the old
,time rascality crops out in full bloom.
Democracy has a terrible load to
.stagger under, and to add to its bur
dens by increasing its power would
be Jittle short of cruelty. When it
succeeds in civilizing • Georgia and
Texas it may turn its attention to the
nation. If the rifle.and knife prove
effective Civilizing agencies in those
States it may pay to introduce these
novel instruments of political reform
a little further North. But We fear
the experiment will fail. Conversion
through, fear is not very lasting and
the power thus gained is only for a
day. Democracy should issue a proc
lamation to the faithful, urge them to
appear honest and law-abiding citi
zens until the party is enthroned at
the National Capital. It will be hard
work for the faithful to affect the
disguise, but it may pay if kept up
for a score of years.

its7riii Oct. 3, 1871.
The past month, like the one`preis"
ceding it, has 6een quiet and !Un
eventful. With the exception of the
Theatre and places. of amusement,
and a little more activity in business,
there has ncithinz, transpired beyond
what is usually incident to the dull
morithe.
DIIAMATIQ
At Ford's Opdra House the theat
rical sea - ion was inaugurated in the
, :arly part of the: month by introduc
ing to the public a troupe of bur
leeque- performers, consisting princi
pally of blonde ladies in blonde wigs
and abreviated 'garments, bat from
the very thin houses which greeted
their appearando it would seem as if
the public were disposed to be less
prodigal in the expenditure of their
stamps, or had ceased to be interest:
ed in that kind Of amusement. Had
Congress been in session their • ef
forts, doubtless; would have been
better apprecieed, and the circle of
bald-headed yotiths that usually sur
round the footlights would have been
greatly augmented. At the new Na
tional Theatre the season was com
rnelJeed by trananseliek the great,
but wizli scarcely any better success.
Crowtlrtl housed so far bare not
h em
the result of these engagements, and
eout-eqwntly the managers of thesti
temples-of amusements are not eon
tempkting the scene with that custo
mary smite that was always so
" child-Us and bland."
About the only place that appears
at present to be patronized to any
extent, is the
THEATRE. CpIIIQUE.,
which is filled with evidently an ap
preciative audience. Here the worn
out jokes and stale witticisms of the.
performers are applauded and encored
over and over again by the
,gamins
and gods of flab gallery, while the
the ballet-dancer, enveloped in her
clouds of gauzi of muslin, is looked
upon and revered as a " thing 'of
beauty and a joy forever." Burnt
cork negro minstrelsy, the bones
and the banjo,. and burlesque drama,
appear to-be - masters of the field ;
and, however deplorable the fact, So
demoralized have become the tastes
of the amusement-lovingpublic that
the legitimar drama, ( so called), is
,patronized fo a little time only, wh - 6n
Wastungton is at the full tide of its
fashionable seasen.
The Theatre Comique has become
not only a resort for the middle and
plebeian classes of the community,
but the aristocratic portion of it also
furnishes its quota, and not a small
one has it been; either. Prominent
merchants' sons, "society gentlemen,"
young members of the bar, young of
ficers of the navy or army, journal
ists, bankers (young and old), gov
ernment officials and clerks, and oc
casionally a stray member of Con
gress, rejected hivers,—in short, rep :
resentatives from every calling in the
higher and lower spheres of life, may
be found gathered within its walls ;
all of whom, if questioned, have come
out on the excuse of relieving the
monotony of the regular routine of
the day's busineSs.
Connected with the Theatre—as
with all establishments of the kind—
and in close proximity to the stage,
IS A WINE nOO3l,
where those whd don't care. to pip-,
gle with the promiscuous audience
amuse themselves by treating to wine
the fair dariceri, songsters, and ae
tresses of tlt company. To get " be
hind the sce es'! is oifr of the high
est aspirations of the 1 ' swell," whore
not unfrequ'ently may. be found those
around whose browsare been gath
ered the frosts of ma y winters, bdt
i i
who still retain an eye \ for the beau
tiful, and within'whos breasts there
is yet a susceptibility arra a green
spot that acknowledges the " sett im
peachment." Resolve upon having
a good time during t e temporary
suspension of business or while his
wife and family are at the sea-shore
or mountain-sido, and afely secluded
from the vulgargaze of the public,
wine, oysters, sandwiches and cigars
are ordered withr i a liberality and a
prodigality beyond any thing evr
known to his better half in their
palmiest days. ;And while all this is
being enacted, the eyes of the neivly
initiated novice are made to protrude
with astonishment, in witnessing the
rapidity with which these bespangled
sylphs and fairieS in wings put down
the substantiate, followed by glassful
after glassful of the stimulant, and,
like sleepy Jbe in Pickwick, call /re
peatedly for " mere." It must not
be supposed, hOwever, that all of
them are thus favored in securing
this expensive admiration. " All is
not gold that glitters." Standing
about the wings of the stage may be
seen the less fortnnate ones, many of
whom, although young, are pale and
sunken-eyed, wearing a consumptive
and haggard look that the thickest
coatings of paint cannot disguise.
Wearily and patiently they wait for
the performance to close, when they
hurry away with ;the miserable pit •
trine° received, which is quickly ex
pended in helping to keep starvation
from their wretched homes, whose
squallia occupants,in many instances,
know no other means of support.
Here the recent celebrity now
known as the
ADIIIILAL'S DA.I3OIITER,
still continues to delight the habitues
with those graceful steps and feria'
flights that so recently captivated
and carried away in triumph the
heart of a gay youth of aristocratic
birth and parentage, and which at
the time created such a flutter of ex
citement in the circles of both high
and low life. The unbending old
Admiral, the descendant of a proud
ancestry dealers in shoddy, per
hops,—ln the
,stern dignity of his
wounded pride, having seen propsr
to discard and disown this degenerate
scion of his 'house, the fair dancer—
from necessiCy, if not from choice,
—continues her vocation ; and, as a
consequence, the theatre has the ben
efit of Whit has !become a popular
sensation.
RETURNING HOMEWARD
The season of rest and recreation
is now over, and naturally our sea
bathers and mineral water-drinkers
are directing their wandering stops
homeward. Wag6n-loads of battered
And broken trunks, piled mountains
high, from the huge Saratoga, down
to the frail hat hot, are beginning to
be seen in the streets on the way to
their several destinations ; while the
Depots that were lately so quiet are
a scene of tumult and confrtsion.as
train after train arrives with its
great burdens of tired, dusty, and
travel-stained huratinity.
Amid the smashing of baggage,
the squalling of babies ani the Babel
of tongues in perpetual motion, to
gether with. the annoyance, impor
tunities and deafening cries of the
14ckmen, who assail you on:

Prevailing by reason of rumen of a

results of a rigid economy which,

faithfully carried out after this

burdens of taxation and in diminish

FITCH--SEMICIVI WEDDING.
Great preparatioits are being made
or the wedding of Miss Minnie,
daughter of General Sherman, to a
young Lieutenant df the Navy, which
is announced to take place on Thurs
day evening next at the St. Aloysiue
Church, 'of this city, of which the
family are members. An Archbishop
is to come all the
,Way from Cincin
nati to officiate on the occasion, and
to:see'that the nuptial knot, in ac-
COrdance with the creed of that
Church, is so tied that there shall be
no possible way of ,unloosing it here
after. !
As the General is noted for being
asfond of excitement, as well
as partial to a good time, it will
'doubtless be madi3 •the great event
of the season. Invitations, it is un
derstood, have been
,sent out by the
thousand, which, if responded to, (as
ithout question a very great num
•er of them wilt be) - there will ,cer
inly be no lack of company. The
1 a
ntertainment, which will be given
t the nonie of the General after the
Ceremony is over, will doubtless want
for ,nothing that money can supply
oir taste suggest. As therelas • been
no special exclusiveness aimed at in
giving out invitations, and as the
General. is known; to -be rather ad
verse to • anything like formality, we
may.expect, from his well known so
cial habits andiliberality, that there
will be an Oundance of the good
things of life, both liquid and sub
stantial. With certain parties a "high
ld time" is expected, such as has ,not
eon seen in Washington for many a
ay.

SOVTLIERN ITIIOUBLES.
Tho present unsettled condition of
the South, which f has' recently been
the subject of a no small amount of
discussion, and which' is likely to be
the cause of a goo deal of trouble
Or Borne time tol come, can be at
tributed only to the mistaken policy
o Congress in grttnting so hastily so

chnstruction acts !to a pule - that
Wore entirely void of a single law
illiiding sentiment) While Northern
legiSlators endeavOrcd to be as just
and generous in peace as in war, the
history of the reconstruction of every
Southern State shims that the first'
eXercise of their i authority was to
expel every colored man from , their
councils '
and to trample upon the
political rights of a p,eople upon
whose human rights they had tram
pled for so many !generations. Dis
regarding their eolemn pledges to
protect and' support the theory of
popular self - government, and in
flagrant violation Of their oaths, they
have constantly aimed at bringing
about sectional collision and reviving_
the murderous hatred of northern
sentiment. It is 1 hardly possible to
pick up a Southern paper without
finding proof' of ' these assertions,
while the telegraph almost' daily- in
forms us that some Southern locality
has been the scene of some wanton
outrage. Believing, as they have
been taught by , unscrupulous politi
cians, that their cause is not a lost
one, • the conditions of peace have
been utterly disregarded, and the
demon influence of slavery revived.
In the, present Zisturbances we have,
in a spasmodic way, the renewal of a
conflict which was .ended ten years
-ago, but which, we are inclined to
believe, was ended just a little too
soon. The generosity and liberality
extended them has led them 'to be
lieve that the •" last ditch " has not
yet been reached. M.

Hon. H. L . Scorr, of Bradford, and
NArumv WELLs, of Wyeming,
were mentioned. -Mr. Scorr received
a majority of the votes, and on mo
tion-of Mr. DAWSON hie nomination
was made unanimous.
On motion it was
Resolved, That the next conference
shall be bold in Tunkhannock.
Adjourned.
S. A. Sruannvenv, Prest.
G 63. H. FQX, Sec'y.
- To show in what esteem . our can
didate for Lieut. Governor is held at
Tome we copy the following from
the Peer Journal, published whore
he resides: "The Republican State
Convention has honored this county
by nominating ono of our citizens for
the new office of Lieut. Governor.
We have some acquaintance with
most of the prominent men of Penn
eyvania, and we do no injustice to
any of them when we give expres
sion to, our deliberate judgment that
Eon. A. G. Olmstead is the peer of
the ablest and best of. them. He has
reached his present position with
out the aid. of wealth or influ
ential personal friends, but solely
by the strength of his character and
eminent! qualificltions,for the impor
tant office to which he has been
nominated by the people of Pennsyl-,
vania. We use the term 'people' be
cause he was not. the choice of the
politicians of Philadelphia or Pitts
burg. He did not receive a vote
from Allegheny county in convention,
and but 13`out of the 46 -from Phila
delphia. We are' gratified beyond
our power of utterance atr the re
spect shown to one of. our citizens,
and, it gives unusual pleasure , to
note - the unanimous expression
of good will from the people toward
our nominee, It is not'our purpose
to write an enology, but simply , to
give voice to the general feeling of
pride and satisfaction over the
distinction and . honor which one of
our citizens has secured for the
county of Potter."- -
ED. REPORTED—DEAD SIB:—In a
speech of great len_gth, delivered at
the Easton Experimental Farm at
"West Grove, Chester County Pa.,
recently,Col. V. E. now.= said that,
"of all the persous .who came and
asked admission to the Grange, the
Politician tra.3 the east wanted."
Does the Colon I talk ill that way
when at home?
Tug Elmira Daily Advertiser,notices
the nomination of Mr. LAPORTE, in
the following complimentary, but
truthful words: • -
The Congressional Conference for
the 15th Dititrict of Pennsylvania;
composed of the counties of Brad
ford, , Susquehanna, Wayne and
Wyoming, met in Tunkhanhock on
Wednesday last, and after balloting
two days,. finally nominated Hoh.
BartholomeW Laporte, of Bradford.
Mr. L. has been indentified with
the, Republican party from its
organization down to the present
time. Indeed, he was one of the
first men in the Democratic party
to throw off the • shackles
which the slave power had
riveted upon them, and declared for
free - soil, and-free speech, while such
men as Wilmot were hesitating about
taking the step. At the, organization
of the party in that State he .was
placed upon the ticket for Surveyor
General, and has rendered yeomen
service ever since. A man of clear
perceptions and derided convictions,
he is bold in avowing his belief, and
.bears the reputation among his
friends and neighbors of all parties
of being .as pure and honest as he is
bold. The farming classes hail his
nomination Eta another evidence that
the Republican party recognize true
merit wherever found, and that the
industrious intelligent tiller of the
soil is as likely to be called to Iposi
tions of honor and trust as the man
in any of _the so-called learned pro
fessions. Bradford will roil up an
old fashioned majority for ' him on
the 3d of November.
PLANK 4 of the Democratic State
platform reads thus :"That we cherish
a grateful remembrance of our brave
soldiers and sailois." Will the Dem
ocratic'State Committee officially in
form the people of Pennsylvania who
"their" soldiers are ?. Are they the
men who fought out t victory a
war which the StateDemaratic Con
ventiol declared to•be only a record
of"debt, slaughter, and disgrace," or
the men who.lost in that war.
A rormoN of the Roman Catholics,
of New Haven, Conn, •at the suggest
tion of Dr. CAR'AIODY, "a prominent
Catholic priest," ran' a ticket for
School Directors, at the recent elec
tion, to get control of the Boards,
and: appropriate money to their own
schools. The Catholic candidates
received 1,400 votes out of 5,000
polled. Many Catholics; it is said,
condemned the movement and refused
to vote their ticket.
THE Democrats can't agree on 4
candidate for Judge in the Wyoming
and Sullivan district, and it begins
to look 'as though banam , would
walk over the course without
lion.
EVERY laboring man in the county
is interested in having labor protect
ed. Mr. "LAPORTE is decidedly on
the side of labor.
ICE=
TILE Denifierat'e candidates for the
Legisl&nre are all pledged to vote
for a repeal of the local option law:
41111114%-4
,WITH. a full vote, Bradford will
give 2,500 majority for LAPORTE.
