TITS platform adopted by the
"Republican Convention Will com
mend itself to the best . judgment of
all candid voters. It is crisp, solid
and sound. Protection to American
industry ; the . encouragement of
AmericanicoMmerce and labor; pub
lic lands for.the people; no rebel war
elaims; fair rates of transportation;
equality of Southern Republicans
with their Confederate neighbors—
these are the plinciples we inscribe
on our flag, confidently appealing to,
theipeOple of this great State fur
their vindication at the polls. The
pl ink, ich commends the adminis
tration of Governor ITARTRANFT, is as
gratifying to his earliest and beSt
friernds as it must be to that faithful
and eminently successful official.
HARTRA.VFT has more than justified
the lwedietions of his most partial
supporter s, and is to-day the most
universally popular Executive Penn
sYlvania has eyer:. known. Added-to
such a platforin, is a' ticket 'beyond
'reproach. A glorious. Republican
triumph ins-November, is assured.
IT must not be forgotten that the
Only Florida . evidence the Democrats
have obtained, , and the only further
evidence they can hope, for from that
State or Louisiana, proceeds from
•Republican sources that are inimical I
to M. -The MAINs and
DE:itsF.s are Republicans with griev-
anees ofvarious kinds. The guilt=
knowledge they arc relied upon to
reveal did not trouble their consei-"
ences until the
,Administration failed
toroward them according to their own
estimate of their deserts. The more
important RepubliCans who are se
cretly playing into the hands of the
Democratic investigators are sub
ject to the .same criticism. . The
'country will regard with suspicion
'aught that emanates from either of
• these classes. :The great men who
sitibeltind..the scenes and pull the
wires, and the small men who act as
puppets,. are of course weieozne a ux
,iliaries to the Democracy. . Their
motiVes,. however, detract from the
trustworthiness of whatever theY
may say - or do in connection with
the investigation.'
AmoNG the important laws enacted
by the late legislature was one -pro
riding for the erection of a Centra '
penitentary. The Eastern and
'Western penitentaries are' both
crowded with "several hunared more
convicts than they were designed for,
- and the recent additions to the
Eastern penitentary will afford only
temporary relief. The territorylaid

ME reported strikes soou to occur
in varibus parts of this State have
probobly aS'mueli fancy as, fact in

that twenty thousand ncen . can be
found in any county, or even in any
State; wlio will refus-towork unless
for higher Wages whin capital- is a
drug, when great industries arc con
ducted at a loss, when thousands of
unemployed are seeking employMent;
or that in such a prostration of ac'-'
tivity, when all are rather hoping for
better times not yet visible, and when
• teduetions in wages are continuous
through all England, American labor
should demand higher, wages and less
hours for a day's labor. tiuch a coii
dition implies a degree oil ignorance
,American labor was never gUilty of.

is put in the platform, "too, i the

The people are - told that "any at-,

"dangerous to Mir institutions ank
fruitless iii its• results." But every
Democrat in Congress from Penn-kyl
vania has vote] 6ver3,' time in favor
of an investigation made solely, for
the purpose of unseating the Presi
dent. It is only fair to some mem
i,ers •of the coi;vention, probably
the majority, however,. to say that
this - feature of. the . platform! they
seriously objected to.
motice the -proceedings of the
" Prohibition meeting" called to as
semble in this place recently are
published in two of our town papers-
We happened to see the gathering re

that it was an immense (?) assemblite,

chronic sore-head, who has betu
kicked out of the Itepubliean party,
and one consistent temperanbe man
from Granville, who took no pains to
conceal his disgust at the Political
jugglery Its r his associates.
ALL the Democratic organs tell
their readers that the Republicans in
!`Congress voted against an investiga-
Oer of the alleged frauds in the.elee
tion of 1S; s.. This is untrue. The
Republicans voted. in favor of extend

THE Germantown relegraph sayS
that it -is admitted oa i hands L-.

The Democrats will be held to ac

for perverted investigations and for
shameless misuse of their opportuni
ty to correct the wrongs that have
grown up under the - Republican reg

nority they condemned which as a
majority they practice. We look
for another -reconnoisance in, force
by the Independent voters, who have
been sleeping - on their arms for a

Tux predictions so freilly made of
the prospective failure of the Woman's
Hotel have been' fulfilled quite as
soon as ap.);_one expected. Of the
two hundred accepted applicants,
whielt - is about one-fifth of the num
ber that the hOtel could accommo
date, only forty took rooms, and
these petscins have enjoyed the act',
vantages i of the Woman's Hotel at
an average cost to the STEWART, es
tate of about ten dollars for each
one. Failure was prophesied because
the regulations were: onerous, but
the more probable reason is the n.a-.
tural objection to being confined to
associates of 'one's own sex. If it
were possible to make a hotel suc
cessful from which one of the sexes
was excluded, the -experiment would
have been, tried long ago.
EVEN ALEX McCtuttE admits • the
ticketn9minated by the Harrisburg
Convention is a strong One. In an
editorials in the Titnrx he says :
"Those who dream that Colonel
Hoyt will be easily vanquished in
the coming battle are but idle dream
ers. lie is personally popular and
deservedly so: . Ile is intelligent,
manly and has no common share of
creditable attributes. He was a gal
lant soldier, and outside of the single
issue Of a widely-hated rule that has
favored. him he. has every element of
popular strength. If lie shall com
mand-the united and cordial support
of the voters who cherish sincere de ,
votion , to Republicanism, he will
prove to be the most available candi

Tux Beaver Radical : lion. GA
LUSIJA A. Grthw says he will at . once
take the stump, especially in the
northwestern counties in the State,
and will urge the people_to give their

At the close of this campai g n Col

serious obstacle in the reduction of
Charleston. The operations were
laborious and conducted under 'the
.terrible fire of the enemy and the
more wasting' effect of - the summer's
heat. For forty days the work was
pushed, A single paragraph written
by Colonel Hoyt at the time will
I illustrate 'its nature. After describ

says: "Over all this diversity of

address i \
_....,.... •
Its,s tutnrrox, May 17, 1878. -
To the Voters Of the United States :
The Democrats House of Reprdsenta
tives has to-day-b :a party vote adopted
s e.. i
a resolution which tinder the pretense of
investigation, is to laintrni foundation for
a revhlutionary expulsion of the President
from his office. This is the 'culmination
of a plot which has been on foot from the
day that Hayes and Wheeler \were coma
tutionally declared elected. , Ilk made its
first, public appearazioe in the resolution
of the last Democratic House adapted at
the close of the session, deelarim, that 1
Tilden and Hendricks were erected. \Til
den and Ilendries subsequently made gm=
flak public declarations themseirea.
few timid members have long. held back,
and some of them, after being coerced to
the final vote, still pretend that they will
halt as soon as their.partial and one-sided
investigation stall have ended. In other
words, they intend, after hearing suborn
ed evidence, to bring in a verdict that
Hayes, is a usurper and that ho shall not
remain in office. These men have no con
trol in , the Democratic party. They dor;
I'd not even follow Alexander H. Steph
ens in a unit against caucus dictation to
the extent of showing some sereldance_of
fair play. They will be impotent in the
future as ; they have been in the pxst.
Moreover, his ditlictilt to believe in their
sincerity in view of the public avowal of
their party that its purpose is, if possible
to displace the President. It is a matter.
of history that the resolution just adopted
was framed to express this object.
The Speaker of the Honse was consulted
in advance as to whether he would rule
that it was a privileged question. The
party managers were anxious to e•Aiceal
their:purposes if. possible. In this they
Were defeated by the Speaker, who would
not rule it a question of privilege unless
it clearly assailed the title' of the Presi-
I dent. The resolution being offered, he
I read a carefully prepared opinion, decid
ing it to be a question of the highest priv
-1 ilege because it involved the question of
1 the validity . of Hayes' title. Here are the
very words :
"A. higher privilige than the one here
involved and broadly and directly present
ed as to the rightful occupancy of the
ref Executive chair of the goverment,
4 al l d the connection of the Ugh govern.
_meta officials with frauds alleged, the
Chair is unable to conceive. The Chair
finds enumerated among the questions of
privilige set down in the Manual the fol
lowing: "Election of President." The
Chair therefore, rules that the preamble
and resolution embrace questions of priv.
liege of the - higbest character,d meg-,
cusizes the right of the gentleman frord
New York to offer the same."
Upon. this the Republins commenced
a • struggle against the. revolutionary
scheme which, after five days' duration
terminated in the success of the conspira=
tors: The Republicans offered the full
est investigation into alleged fra.ids, by
whichever party, charged to have been
committed,,but the. Democracy pursued
its
_course . shamelessly and relentlelisly,
party,
rally.again to the support of the law, or
der and stable government, and to over
whelm with defeat the reckless agitators
who to gain political power, would add to
tbo present distresses of the country, by
shaking the foundation of the government
they failed in four years war to destroy.

TED SATRE ELNOT/OR, DISTRICT
SAYRE,ra,, May 21, 1571
Din. EDITOR 7 The great injuStice done
to the Sayre election district by the late
County Conventidn, in shutting out , Ilw
delegates from that astrict, and thus
do
privingthe people of any representation,
is exciting a good deal of coniteent
'throughout the county, and so far as I can
e,arti, the tone of that comment is any- I
thing but flattering to the action of the ,
Cotiventien or the instigator of the great I
wrong,
We think it comes with an ill grace for
a delegate, and a substitute delegate at
that, from s bdrough tnaile up of several
election dis acts, and each district repre
sented by two delegates to get up in a '
Convention au start such a movement.
As an exhibition f cheek it is about . the
'cheekiest thing ou cord. The usage of
'the Ifephblican Corrientima and-the Dem
ocratic•Coovention fol\years, has been to
admit two delegates from each glection
district.' And further thali c tbat, the Dem-.
octatic Convention and Greentiackt Con
vention admitted delep,ates, from the sev
eral election districts of Athens township.
Taken why this sudden change in the face.
of 'all iisnage and precedingS? There
looks tette something dark in tlu\free
somewhere. All we ask' eveu ha ded
just!, e 4 Our delegates will not go to \tic.
convention begging the privilege of a seat,
They will take's scat as their right to rep
resent their constituents. Wetwlieve the
next convention will cheerfully accord us
-that righ.:. •
-. As to the suggestion, that a convention
°film County Committee.he called to fix
the basis of representing throughout the
County. Sty opinion is, that inasmuch as
no such action was contemplated when
that committee was appointed, such a
course would be very injudicious-- . •
And I believe it is, a matter that be
longs properly to the convention itself, to
be acted on onlly after fair notice is given.
The suggestion to cut flown the lumber
of delegates would not be satisfatory.
.• The fabric of onr government seems to
be founded on a representation of two
delegates from each State, whether large
or small to represent us in the. United
States Senate. And when we make up
our Electoral College we '
elect two dele
gates nt large and firo balance is made up
on the number of voters.
I would adopt this same plan. And in
conclusion allots me to say .that I think
the best thing the convention can do, is to
right the great wrong done to our election
dlstrieta, and then: go on and attend to its
legitimate business, and. put up a ticket
made'np of good sound honest men ; sdcb
men as will give character to the several
offices, and then they can go before the
people,.4ith a prospect of electing them,

The :military history of the State for
the past-ten years ianutlicient proof
of thilartith'of this assertion. &me
arms were sent town eastern county, i
but they Were merely sent in ex
change for old-fashioned weapons
whieh were returned to the State
Arsenal. When interrogated on the
Subject to-day, the Governor said
that if trouble was anticipated in
any section of the state it is quite
lately that the civil authorities would
inform him, but as yet he has receiv
ed no such notification. There are
many rumors from all parts of the
country,-and there may be trouble in
the future, but there is none what
ever at Present. A" gentleman who
arrived in this city yesterday from
the western part of the State said
that trouble is apprehended at Greens
burg, Westmore:and County, where
several Mollie Maguires are on trial
for arson and murder, and it is fear
ed, the miners of that section may ,
attempt a. disturbance. It may be
that = from this small speck have
grown the clouds of war which
trouble so many persons throughout
the State.- The friends of law and
orderi can rest assured, that when
trouble of that character comes. if
eonie'it will, it will be 'suppressed
a vigor and thoroughness which
will tend greatly to prevent a' speedy
recurrence of the disorder.' ' ,
DENOCTRATS ON'THE TIONET.
• A special Waehington dispatch
says : Democratic Congressmen 40
not'hesitate ..to say that there was na
-enthusiasm for the ticket at' Pitts
burg, and they , fear it will be impa
gable to arouse any as the canvass
progresses. They express the future
fear-that the dissensions so apparant
in the Convention will not be smooth.;
ed over in tirne to solidity the party
and organize it for . effective service.
i Not a man of them expects to see
the ticket win. Some or them say.
that the nomination of Dill will cost
the party 25,000 votes in the oil .
re
gions; they do not think that Fertig
will be strong with that interest.
They also anticipate trouble in the
west, which had set its heart first on
Hopkins, and next on defeating Dill.
Colonel Marsh, of York, who
was himselta candidate for Clover
nor,. says that the ticket might have
been much better, and is strong only
because the Republican ticket is
very weak. He believes Dill to be a
'man of ( unexceptionable • character,
and thinks he would make a' good •
GoveriCor if he could be elected. Of
his election nobody here has any
serious thought.
Colonel Mackey, of Lock Haven
district, thinks the ticket a good one,
but regreta dissensions which cropped
out so strongly in: the convention.
Col. Mackey and Mr. Collins were
the only two Dill men in the Penn
sylvania delegation. Messis Maish,
Stinger, I'urney, Reilly, Bridges,
Wriglit, and, of course,
were strongly against him ; some be
cause they' had individual preferen=•
ces, and the Speaker because his
motto was anything to beat Wallace.
The speaker's• defeat at the Con.-
vention has been the subject of Gen
eral conversation to-day. There are
those who go so far as to predict
that Senator Wallace will carry( ,the
war into the Speaker's district, and,
by defeating him for nomination,
!punish him for leading the field
'against Dill and the rest of the state.
In this connection, it is said that
'Squire M'Mullen gaye it to be • un
derstood that lie wanted to be solid'
with the winning man, and would,
.if '
called on, use his power against Ran,
dell's re-nomination. A Pennsylva
nia Democratic Consgressman said
to-day that there was but one man
in the delegation upon . whose sup
port Randall could rely "in making
his fight for the Speakership of t he
next House.

Dear Sirs—l have set up the No. COO/eSC3e3Ther
which I procured of yoa; and , have now had It In
use on my farm' in New Jersey several weeks. I
Sod that it does all you represented that It would
do, and that besides ALL of the cream from
the milk In less ilia' n hours, and keeping the
funk p-rfeetty sweet ; Ti occupies verYtittle space ;
may- be kept anywhere In a gttclien, tit a barn if
desired. because being
. claird completely against
access of air the cream tali ilnidbe no odors*: also
that It produces more cream from the milk limo I
can procure from shallow pans.and is a great labor
saver. I strongly recommend It to every boiler
maker. lam sure I have- gabled In both quality
snd aaricity over any kind of. pan I have yet used
fur qting milk for cream. ,
1, tors very truly, HENRY STISWAST.
