Tun Buffalo Expree.q relate; this
incident of Guy. ' " Some
two -Months ago, before jany of the
['residential norninationa had been
made, some Republican! friends of
Gov. HAvEs, solicitous f4r . his nom_ nAtion, suggested that there was a
tendency to inflationrii fest at
Washington, and asking if there was
not also in Ohio. With Characteris
tic candor the Governor replied, that
he did not know. " sakl he.
"that is not our business It r. 4 our
,
business to find out wow., rygut,
and then help to make publie senti
ment right. Defeat on a ;right plat
form is to be preferred to victory on
a wrong oue. An victory
at thy best, would not be+. victory;
it wouldlYe a Demoexatic Victory !"

Such sentiments are a n , •laring con

which are, 'avotvedly,' success at arty_;

Ex-Gov. Dix write 'as Olows to an

called for the 'purpose ofl

fact was publicly stated when Mi..

following notice in regard . to his con
templated visit to Cheiitcr county :
The temperance element of Ches
ter county is soonto, be Stirred by
the appearance of Bro.' S. S. Butts, of
13radibrd county, who will canvass
our county, beginning on the 17th:of
August,lB76, at the celebration of
the 25th anniversary of the Order to
be held at West Wove station, on
41ie P. & B. C., railroad otr that date
at 11 o'clock A. M. Bro. Butts is an
earnest, tried veteran in the army
against the giant evil intemperance,
and we hope our temperance people_
will give him every support. and
.en
couragement possible in his most
laudible work. I take the following
from the Temperance 1 - islicatiw,
penned by Col. McFarland, who is
thoroughly acquainted wi di his work:
" We learn the Executive- Com
mittee have wisely proposed to em
ploy- Bro. S. S. Butts most of the
Grand. Lodge year as anlovi e' aniz„er
and lecturer, and to send him first to
Montgomery and Chester counties,
•where he will - commence: early in
August. We are glad Of this. It
will give Bro. Butts a new field of
labor, and a chance- to prove his ea
paeity as an orglinizer. If te suc
ceeds in Montgomery and Chester
countieh it "ought " surely. tosatisfy
the most fastidious. And- we know
he, is quite willing to take the risk.
For our 'own part we have no doubt,
of his success there - or elsewhere.
A man of unimpeachable character,
of deeply religious convictions, full,
of zeal for the cause of temperance,
enthusiastic in whatever he under
takes, and a hard worker, with fair
abilities and a good deal of ,experi
ence, he will' arouse and enthuse the
staid, solid classes, and orgapize them
into Lodges. Mark theTredictions:
In a private letter Bro. Butts writes:
" This is but the daWning,‘f the tem
perance, era. This world is very
young in bverything good. , Religion
is only in its 3 - outh, while the Angel
child temperance is not out of her
cradle. And as we are , sowing the
seed at morn, noon or evening, to be
water by the tears and blessed by
the prayers of the broken hearted
ones, we anxiously ask. "'What shall
the harvest be?" Our toils and sac
rifices cannot be in vain. Our faith
will be tried. After the 'seed time
will come dreary winter with it howl
ing winds and bitin g frosts and the
fields will be '
covered with drifting
snOw. But God will taleeleare of the
seed until lle can bring !the happy
spring time with its warn' sunshine
and refreshing showers to develop
the golden harvest." •

The fraud and bribery of Mil', it, is
openly confessed as above, is to be qied
again in 187 G !! Here we have a sys , tem

by such means should arouse the dormant
spirit' of Law and Liberty in the old Thir

LETTERS FROM Tit PEOPLE. 11
MR. EDITOR RF.I•OII.TF.R.: The billy is
.
near at. ham! when the Republic:to vojers
of the different election districtS will be
called.upon to elect delegates to the COun
ty Co6entien, called for the purpo4e of
nominating a county and congressi;Onal
ticket, to be supported at the coming Olec
tion. I fear that the people do not atiach
sufficient importance to the primary niixt
ings, and do not realize the necessity' of
sending judicious and reliable men a sidel
egates to the County Convention, ynen
who understand and will carry militia ,
wishes of their constituents, regardless of
the importunities of candidates or their
friends. It is pain that the success of
the canvass in this county depends lartely
on the candidates nominated being satis
factory to the people. I conciiiveit there
fore to be the first duty of all delegateli to
see that none but good, reliable and demi
petent men are nominated for the seqral
offices, and that the candidates are roan
whose position and standing is such to
secure the hearty support of every Ite011)-
- lican voter l regardless of locality, or,'flitr•
erence of opinion on matters of minoriim
portance. We must not forget that there
.are important interests coining inloithe
Present canvass, that we roln not cereal
to. and inuAt 'Noe ignore. Mr. Edit 4 ., I
claim that all true Republicans hav,N an
equal right to ask\ office at, the liand - ti
the party, and the fact, that' a manjcas
canvassed the county, importuning rifen
to support him, or, that certain leaders7 l
have promised him their support, iilno
goad reason why ho shoUld be nominated: •
The only question should be. is be c,an
petent and well qualified to discharge the
duties of the position,- and is hiS posit on
and standing in the.party, and amongihis
fellow men, such as to secure the united
support of the party, and Will his nomiffa
tion bring strength to the ticket. ilLet
our„ nominating Conventions carry Out
this policy in selecting candidates, andiwe
will soon return to the old time majoritles
of le6o-64 in Bradford-County. Let etiiry
Republican who can, th&primiry
meeting, and see to it that good delegles
are sent to the County Conveiltion w;lio
will fully' understand the preference file!
wishes of their constituents, and who 101
go into the Convention with a_determina
tion to advance the interest of the przeki,
rather than the interest of aoy particular
candidate. Do this and we will =Fel a
nomination satisfactory to the party, and •
all will unite in giving a hearty supportto
the entire - ticket. By p fat cr'i!orx
gain. future profit: '

'FRE State Temperance ConventiOn
recently assembled at Pittsburg,
addressed 'by Rev. A um.Ey
tempermico, candidate for Governor
last fall, and others. They passed la
series of resolutions, from the tone Of
which we infer that they have VetW
tt .
sensibly abandoned the policy ofTh
separate political organization, tlll . O
will seek to secure the reenactment
of " Local Optiint." We extract of)'e
or two of the resolutions
IVitrair.xs, the temporal and spiritual
interests of the inhabitants of Pcttsylvii
pia would be best promoted' by prohibit
irg the manufacture, sale and use Of i(i
toxicating liquors as a beverage ; arid'
whereas, the civil power of the State ema
nates front the people, of. whom NIT ate
a part ; therefore,
3i
Resolved,_ That in the exercise of that
power at the ballot box, and by all (Ali&
lawful Means, we will seek to secure sail%
legislation as will give us a Local Optidh
Law.
They further resolve to inte'rrogaa
candidates for
_ . the Eegislattire upon
this subject, and •in their address (0
the citizens of the State Sa' ‘7.'•
any candidate flols -to - tiliiartle res

IT begin§ to look as though the
Democrats in this county were dit,
cduraged, or demoralized. The stanil'f .
