WHY.
Why 7 should any !Republilan in
Bradford county vote the greenback
ticket ? It is admitted that the green
-. backers will not carry the State, and
a Republican : vote
. given for their
Candidates is only aid for the Democ
' racy. The Democrats hve. been' the
bitterest enetnies'of the Oreeback
currency. • Thee ' t opposed its first is-
sae and sneered.. at it,in every shape I
They slandered'' the credit of the
GoVernment up on which it rested,
and,.betireen 'their armed rebellion
...in the South and their underhanded
opposition in the 'North, they at one
time 'so weakened' the Government
that $2.84 in greenbacks' were only
worth one dollar in gold. Nearly
nil the financial, troubles of the day
come from that depreciation, caused
wholly by the Democratic party, and
the effort to redeeni the 'greenbacks,
:iecording to contract, an effort which
the Democrats arc doing their best
...to impede. The -worst enemies of
'the greenback are the men who tried
first :to destroy •the Government
whose 'integrity was one of the pillars
on which -the paper currency . rested,
and, secondly, to take away the;
- pledge. of a . specie paymerit which
was its other support.' An end e my of.
the Greenback 'can consistently, op
pose its redemption, 'but a friend
cannot. RePublieans of Bradford
• • county do•you desire to aid, such a
party to succeed in this State., Yon
can do so by voting the Greenback
ticket. ' t
GOOD SENSE.
i --- although not so intended, perhaps,-
.
• the' following extract from the letter
:of WM. FOYLE, Esq., in last week's
fOurnal, •is a pointed and merited
rebillee to the demagoguery and cant
. of most Democratic . pipers and . •
ora
tors, who arc continually •chargink
the " hard times" upon the Republi- .
Cab party.. 'We commend Mr. F.'s
'views to the careful attention of his .
late associates in the greenback par
-,t3las well as. all who complain about
" hard times." The remedy suggest
is the only feasible road to renewed
activity and prosperity in business :
. It is true, the very hard times that
- w are passing through, with a large
'
amount of labor out of employment, nat
urally produces a spirit of discontent end
- despondency among a large class of our
people, .bnt this we shall overcome—not
by wild and chimerical ideas of finance,
but by the patience and_good sense of the
American people. Upon the wreck and
ruin of lost fortunes and the rubbish of
inflation, we must mow try to resume ape
. cio payment, and if successful, times
must generally improve, or else the
of other nations which have Imssed
thro s ugh similar ordeal is false. We must
wait patiently for a,better-state of affairs
through natural causes. Money
will always accommodate and regulate
it self to the wants of trade and industry.
--, These views I believe have - stood the test
- of time and arc in uccord•with the tinan
iial sentiments of Jefferson. the founder
of theiDem6Cratis party. The truth nev
or 'changes ; what was true in regard to
the finances in his day and generation is
•true now."

larations, he would be alvise politi

The opinion of the Attorney Gien
eral, concerning the eight-hour law,,
about which so much has been sai4, l
is as follows: Attorney Genera'
DEVZNB has furnished to 'the Seqe
tary of the Navy his opinion - on the
eight-hour law, in reply to an inquiry
suggested by_ that official in regard
to circular issued from the Navy
DeOrtment on March 11,1878. That
circular announced' that " The De
partment will centract for the labor
of mechanics, foremen, leading men
and laborers, on the basis of eight
hours a day but that all - wcilrkmen
electing to labor - ten hours a day will
receive a proportionate • increase of :
their wages." _
1
The Attorney General says: " The'
inquiry really suggested by you is
whether this circular accords -with
the meaning and intent of section
3738 of the Revised Statutes, which
declares that eight hours shall con
stitute a day's work for all laborers,
workmen and mechanics who may be
employed by or on behalf of the gov
ernment of the United Statei."
After a careful review of the case,
based upon a. recent decision of the
Supreme Court, the Attorney . Gener
al gives •his opinion that the circular
is in accordance with the section
above alluded to, and that workmen
who perform s ten hours labor lin ay le
gally receive more .pay than those
who perform the eight.

their denunciations of his treachery,
but it is nothing more than might
have been expected. The side-show
movements in

the interest of Democracy, and should
be avoided by alt the opponents - of

the " A1d0.," it is claimed, is the-re

The Phenomenal Ohmage that Was Effect
ed by a Bolt of Lightning.
The Chicago Tribune, in a recent
issue, says: Seldom has the electric
fluid done a. more curious . thing than
on yesterday morning at three o'clock
at the residtnce of H. I. Guild'. , Mr.
Guild and his wife were ,occupying is
bedroom in the second story and Lottie
a bright faced child of four years of
age with golden curls, occupied a
double -cot on the first floor in com
pany with her -grandmother, -_llfrS J.
J. Ames, aged about fifty years: :This,
- cot was-placed under the opening of
the main flue of the chimney. The
first recollection that Mr.-Guild had
-of the. situation. Was ,that he was on
the 'floor of the bedroom with his wife
clinging to him and screaming. He
turned on the light: and at first
glance discovered that the patches of
plastering in the ceiling of his room
and in the room adjoining were hang. -
ing over his head, -and the lathing
protruding. The shingles in thp
vicinity the of chimney were toren up.
He then concluded that - lightning
had/done the work. The next thought
wits the grandmother and his daught
er Lottie, below. Upon arriving in
their r00m,. - th-e little innocent, her)
file; head of, curls, and handablack
with the.soot of the flue, commenced
to clap her hands at the appearenee
of the grandmother, who was also
blackened with the soot. Upon ex
amination Mrs. Ames was found to
bi in an insensible condition and a
doctor was summoned. : ale applied
remedies. • .
. The child, told the story, of how
the fire came down the chimney and
knocked herself and " grandma " from
the cpt to the floor. The child was
then subjected to a severe bath, and
then was discovered the most remark
able feature of the whole affair. The
profession ',of curls, which. were of
unusual length, reaching almost to
the child's waist, and-which had been
of a bright golden hue, were of a blue
black or an inky color from tfie roots
to the tip. A closPr examination ie
wealed the still further singular fact
that the scalp of the head was also
col red, indelibly it seemed the same
as tliair.- :Up to six o'clock On
yeste ay afternoon, alter a lapse of
fifteen _hours, and after repeated
washing irlth ammonia and other
solutions, every hair remained the
same shade as hen the charge was I
first noticed, an so with the scalp
of the head.
The physician said that the
\ ,x
re
markable change migh have been the
result of electricity,,bu beyond this
he did not venture an
\ planation.
He'had heaid of one or twoinstancei

not seem to be destroyed, forlt was
still as soft as silken skeins. he
child seemed as lively as a eric*t,
and rather pleased than otherwisP,
with the sudden transformation from
1 a brunette without cost.
• Tux Boston Herald, a Democratic
journal, thus speaks of i President
HAYES and the. Fraud Committee:
Nothing whatever that scorches
so much as a thread of the President's
garment has been established by a'
scrap ofdocumentsry evidence, or by
the testimony of one witness whose
oath should carry a feather's weight.
According td present appearances
Mr. Hayes walked on the Andemon
matter with upright circumspection,
and brought out clean boots, though
the road . was very muddy. in this
respectAhe , developments, undoubt,
edly, fall far_ below the expecta
tions of, the promoters of the inves
tigation.
Tnu Secretary of the Treasury
holds over $200,000,000 of coin and
bullion. This will become a part 'of
the currency of the . country,,as soon

on the railroad. Its trade is rapidly in
creasing,. and these two towuk bid fair to
be places of great importance as trade pe.n!
ties. Just beyond Fargo is the eelebrated
Dalrymple farm of 13,000 acres ; Of thiti
amount about 9,000 acres tire under eniti- 1
vatiop, and -7,oooJacres is in wheat this
year. Mr. Dalryinide only a ~ f ew years
ago was a pool man, and went: into this
section of Dakota and took up some land,
and by
- his industry and pirseverince has
added on to his farm each year until he is
now one of the largest farmers in the.
world. Ills workmen aril counted by the
score; his lunges by 'the hundred, and his
bushels of grain by the thousands. From
Fargo to Bismarck, a .distance of 200
miles,, the land is a rolling pmirie, with a
black, sandy loam for top soil, and a sand
for subsoil. This vast prairie , is fast set
tling tip, and all, over are seen new houses
rip and in process of erection. The.crops
'this year are very abundant,. and the
wheat, crop thrOugh this entire section
- will -average from 20 to. 25, bushels per
acre. Tiro wheat raised here is all spring
wheat, and the farmers of this section say
that they get a': better crop and that it
makes better flour than the winter wheat
grown in the East. A great many are
settling along this line under-the Home
stead Act, - which grants 100 acres of land
outside of railroad limits and 80 neres4 in
side on condition of permanent improve
ments, - living on the same for live years,
and paying land office fees, which 'do not
esiceed $lB. Soldiers can take up these
lands and are allowed their time of Ser
vice, not exceeding four years, on the live
years required residence. Under the laws.
in Dakota it.is provided that for every 5
acres of timber under cultivation, 40 acres,
with all the iinprovements thereon not
exceeding $l,OOO in value, shall be exempt
from taxation for a period of ten years
frum time of planting ; and under another
law it is provided th.‘land' shall be
deemed increased in va to assessment
purposes by reason of such mber culture,
no matter how Much its real valne may
be enhanced therobg. Coal, which is of
excellent qiiality, is found on the Missouri
river near Bismarck, and in some places
along lino of railroad. The Red River
'Valley And Northern Minnesota furnishes
a bountiful 'supply of wood and timber,
and with good saw-mills close - by makes
lumber comparativelteheap. The climate
in the winter is about like Maine, NeW-
Hampshirr, central Now:York and. Mich
igan, and in the summer is warm and
oven temperature without 'many violent
changes, and is said hi ! be freefrom all
malarial diseases and very healthy. -
The opening up of this railroad opens
up a large territory in the Northwest, and
one which will soon supply its millions of
bushels of wheat for the Eastern market&
Bismarck, the present terminus of the
road, is about two miles from the Missouri
river, and though only a few years old,
has over 2,000 population, and is being
built up in a .permauent and substantial
manner. The Missouri riveris about half
a mile wide at this place and quite deep,
so that the largest river steamers loac'
hero andgo to a 'distance of '1,200 miles
North and West. The situation of Bis-'
marck on the river,. with the advantages
of the water navigation and the railroad
running East, makes it a very important
commercial point, and it isture to become
ono of the principal cities of the North
west. The Northern - Pacific getting to

John QurneyAdams was appointed to
office by Washington, and continued' in a.
public service under every administration
--over half a century—until his death ha
' 1848. His father was. once President, as
be was himself, and his son (Clarice
Francis Adams) has every - qualification
for the office to which be might hopefully
'aspire were his declared views more clear
and decided for the principles which char
acterized his fathers.
Other New-England States could show.
similar examples of men long in power.
In Now:England, such men as the Jays
and. Clinton& and Livingston, haye been
found the most safe and able other,states
men. Independent in their circuMstan
ce-having the most undoubted attach
ment to the homes of their ancestors—
they have proved themselvei not the flat
terers and robbers of the crowd like ,
Tweed and the adventurers who land on .
Manhattan with only a trilling and tem
porary interest in -the real prosperity, of
the State. ' Like the rfampdens of Eng
land, the long-founded families of New: ,
York' have the holiest, most patriotic, and
;most abiding motives for administering
well all public affairs ; and the most wor
thy and competent among - them are kept
in office amidst mere party mutations.
Newer countries have less of this per-
sisteney of honors in office, yet many ex.
ampler may bo found among them. Our
first three Governors served nine .years
each. Many Judges and town and' coun- 1
ty officers are long Continued.
Gen. Cameron's term in the National
Senate has been the longest of any nian's
from thisßiate. And, when, like Senator
lfifeen and others, he voluntarily with
drew to private life on nearing his four
score years—deeming his strength to be
comparatively 'exhausted, and younger
men better in the Senate lie had the feli
city of seeing the swim body which. bad
elected him, elect his son as his successor.
Others have excelled Senator Caineron
In family honors. (len. Dodge, of Wis
consin, was Senator at the same time that
his son was Senator from lowa. Mr. Ben.
ton's son-in-law, (Fremont) was on the
floor with him asSenator from California.
And who can tell bow many 'Bayards and
Salisbury's have been Senators from Dela
ware ?
Ex-Goff. Findlay, of Pennsylvania,
when U. S. Senator,ifound two brothers,
members of the lowcnbranch of Congress;
and his son-in-law (F R. Shrink) became
Governor of their naive State. Wm. Big
ler was Governor of Pentusylrania while his
brother John was Goirernor of California.
Three brothers (Wailiburne,) were not

Iu all these matters the only question

honest; capable and fit?" Office buyers
and office hunters may haie other tests,
abut they are of little consequence. When
but one can be elected, all the others must
be disappointed. We, the common people,
only want thn best - man, and the-majority
must make their choice and must rule. -
I write in view of the fact that the hope
of the ex-rebels, the Dill Democracy, just
,now it to carry Pennsylvania through a
division of Republicans on the Senatorial
issue. * They would 'get us by the ears,
and persuade us to say rash and foolish,
Ahin g s, by which they may slip in and win
the prize: My first choice is for. Mr.
Grow or Mr. Scofield in the North, or Mr.
McPherson in the South. ' I have confi
dence in the staunch Republicanism of
Mr. J. D. Cameron, as I found his father
to be, although neither happened to be
my first choice ash had personal aettach
ments to others. But prefer Mr. Cam
ron to any and every Democrat that may
be named.
TR this emergency men are nothing—
principles everything. It would be an ev
erlasting
shame—a going back of the sun
on the dial of time—for the' Keystone
State, in the year 1878, tee elect a South
ern-born sympathizer of the Rebels for
Governor, over a true born soldier of Wy-,
inning. Elect Dill, and with_him ,would '
be a 15..8. Senator of the, same stripe—
one who would (directly or indirectly) in
the mad revolt which killed half a million
of our yonth, and heaped upon us a moun
tain of debt, to strengthen the, foul sys
