Our Nest Paper.
We shall issue our next paper on Sat
urday of this week, so as to be free from
office duties on election day.
Every union man should devote Tues
day next, October 9th, to the election of
Denison and Clymer.
Judge Boyle.
The negro suffrage party has reported
that Hon. John Boyle is for Archbald.
We know that Charles Denison has no
better friend in the district, than the
Judge, who has been, and now is, active
in the support of the whole Democratic
ticket, and none other. He informs us
that he is confident of Denison's election,
and will use all his influence to add to the
majority. If Archbald's. open or other
supporters have no better foundation for
hopes of success, than their stories about
Judge Boyle, they had better cease lying
and spending money for his benefit.
Poll Every Vote.
Do not allow a single voter (nor a mar
ried voter) to remain at home on the day
of election. See that every man comes to
the polls, and watch the board until each
vote is put into the box. One vote may
affect the result.
Vote for Denison and Clymer.
Bogus Reports.
Since our last paper was in press, we
heard a report that C. S. Gilbert had de
clined running fir Sheriff. Of course the
report has no foundation in fa( t ; and is as
groundles+ as other rumors in eirdulation,
hut unworthy of mention.

Address of of the Democratic State Com-

DEMOCRATIC STATE COMMITTEE
Rousts, 828 WALNUT STRE ET, s •
PHILADELPHIA.
To the People of Pennsylvania :
The Democratic party in its platform
of principles, adopted at Harrisburg, on
the sth day of March, 1866, resolved,
1. That the States whereof the people
were lately in rebellion are integral parts
of the Union, and are entitled to repre
sentation in Congress, by men duly elec
ted, who bear true faith to the Constitu
tion and laws, and in order to vindicate
the maxim that taxation without repre
sentation is tyranny, such representa
tives should be forthwith admitted.
2. That the faith of the republic is
pledged to the payment of the national
debt, and Congress should pass all laws
necessary for that purpose.
3. That the white race alone is enti
tled to the control of the government of
the republic, and we are unwilling to
(*rant to negroes the right to vote.
0
Upon this platform we placed our can
didate for Governor, and with.these prin
ciples we confidently look for success in
tiles contest. .
Our opponents in their Convention,
held at Harrisburg on the 7th day of
March, 1866, also, adopted a platform,
and nominated a, candidate. The prin
ciples they .enunciated appear to be lost
sight ot, and the proposed constitutional
amendment takes their place as the rule
of Radical orthodoxy, and to it their can
didate gives his unhesitating support.
Negro equality and negro suffrage are
the essential elements in that amend
ment. By it the negro is made the equal
of the white man in all his "privileges and
immunities." The right of Pennsylva
nia to make laws to regulate the migra
tion of negroes into the State is denied '
and she is deprived of her just share of
representation in Congress unless her
Constitution be amended and the negro
allowed to vote.
The Radical candidates for Governor
and for U' iced States Senator, their lea
ders - of pnkflic: sentiment ;- thoit . speakers
and-their neWspaperi are-open advocates
of this amendment, and their practice , .
ac
cords with their profession, or -they min
gle. with- thenegro in social intercourse,
in political conventions, and' 'in public
processions.
We hold that the negro W. not the
equal of the white man, and, whilst we
accord to him freedom and protection of
person, with the- right to enjoyment of
the fruits of his labor and aid in intellec
tual advancement, we affirm that our
own race is entitled to control the entire
machinery of the government.
Sustain this amendment, and you give
the negro the right to aid in governing'
you; defeat it, and you maintain your own
right of sovereignty.'
EVERY MAN WHO VOTES FOR GEARY OR
FOR A RADICAL CANDIDATE FOR CON
elms, VOTES AS DISTICTLY FOR NEGRO
SUFFRAGE AND NEGRO EQUALITY AS IF
THEY WERE PRINTED ON HIS BALLOT.
Democrats of Pennsylvania :
Power is no longer against you, but
ranges itself upon your side. Opportu
nities for fraud do not exist. Aid comes
to yon from the ranks of the enemy. No
Democrat who voted for McClellan votes
against you now; your brethren are
aroused from the Lakes to the Delaware.
A change of five per cent. upon the vote
of 1864 will sweep your opponents out of
existence. You can count it in almost
every election district in the Common
wealth; and it you will but execute the
details of your organization, success is
certain. .
Faith in your principles, courage for
the contest, and a determination to poll
every Conservative vote, are the only re
quisites to an assured victory.
By order of the Democratic State Com
mittee. . .
Mae undersigned, an auditor appointed by the Or
'. phone' Court of Susquehanna County to make
distribution of the funds in the hands of the Ell
Barnes.admintstrator of the estate of G.S.AMES, deed.
will attend to the duties of said appointment at his of
fice in Montrose, on Saturday the 27th day of October,
1866, at 1 o'clock, p. All persons intere s t e d in said
fund will present their claim at the above time and
place or be forever debarred from coming in upon said
fend.
WILLIAM A. Warxecz, Chairman.
Montrose, Oct. 2, 1888.
Radicals for Disunion.
The leading radicals have always been
and now are for disunion. Their chief
organ is now as heretofore, for disunion.
Do the people wish to know who were
original secessionists ? Read the follow
ing :
[From the Tribune of Nov. 9,1%0.]
If the cotton States shall become sat
isfied that they can do better out of the
Union than in we insist on letting
them go in peace. The right to secede
may be a revolutionary one, but it exists
nevertheless. * * * We must ever
resist the right of any State to remain
in the Union and nullify or defy the laws
thereof. To withdraw from the Union is
quite another matter. Whenever a con
siderable section of our Union shall de
liberately resolve to go out we shall re
sist all coercive measures • to keep it in.
We hope never to live in a Republic
whereof one section is pinned to another
by bayonets.
[From the Tribune. Nov. 20,1866.]
If the cotton States unitedly and ear
nestly wish to withdraw peacefully from
the Union, we think they should and
would be allowed to do so. Any attempt
to compel them by force, to remain would
be contrary to the principles enunciated
in the immortal declaration of indepen
dence, contrary to the fundamental ideas
on which human liberty is based.
[From the Tribune, Dec. l'lth, 1860.]
If it (the Declaration of Independence)
justified the secession from the British
Empire of three millions of colonists in
1770, we do not see why it would not
justify the secession of five millions of
Southerners from the Union in 1861.
[From the Tribune, Feb. 2.1, 1861.]
Whenever it shall be clear that the
great body of the Southern people have
become conclusively alienated from the
Union, and anxious to escape from it,
we will do our best to forward their
vie ws.

—Maine was " colonized" by Disunion
ists from Massachusetts, which accounts
for the increase of 140,000 voters in one
year. When Massachusetts holds her
election the favor will be reciprocated.
Lending voters is now a prominent cus
tom of the long pursed plunderers.
Pomeroy on Colfax.
Speaker Colfax, the ring.tailed roarer
of the Washington Rump, has been mak
ing a speech in Indiana, in which he is
said to have declared that he had lately
been to Arlington, "and be had heard
that Mrs. Lee had been there, and said
that when she got possession of the place
not a Yankee bone should stay on the
ground." The Alexandria Gazette says
that Mrs. Lee has not been to Arlington
since the war, and the New York Times,
(Republican,) adds: Speaker Colfax did
not know, probably, when he uttered this
language, that the estimable lady refer
red to had been a helpless invalid for sev
eral years. He did not know or care ; he
spoke for political effect merely, and was
utterly regardless of truth or manliness
so long as his point was gained.—La
Cross Dcmccra t.
"Drop the Subject."
The Radical journals are greatly alarm
ed at the unkind manner in which the
Democrats and Conservatives are " keep
ing the negro question before the people."
They propose to "drop the subject."—
Can't accommodate them. The issue is
made up, and the record can't be opened.
It is—" Geary and negro suffrage and ne
gro equality" on- one side, and "Clymer
and a white man's government" on the
other. That's what's the matter!
A Hit ! A Palpable Hit !
We are indebted to President Johnson
for the most terse and truthful explana
tion of the Freedmen's Bureau Bill. Said
the President at NeW .. York : " What is
that bill ? Nothing : More or less than
the transferring of four millions of slaves
from their original owners to a new set of
taskmasters, with the United States to
pay all •the expenses, and the taskmas
ters under the -Government to reap all
the profits. '
—The design of the Freedmen's Bu
reau bill, which President Johnson ve
toed, was to make the President of the
United States equal to a king in despotic
power. It was passed as a lure by the
Ruinp Congress to win Andrew John
son over to Radicalism with the tempta
tion of unlimited sway over the people.
But, being of and with the masses, his
virtue rose superior to the temptation.
Andrew Johnson spurned the offer of un
laWful power, and denounced the traitors
to republicanism and democracy, who
tried to prostitute him and to destroy
the liberties of his country. Andrew
Johnson does not want to be a king.
—A squad of negroes was lately im
ported into Bellfonte and put to work on
laying down the water pipes. The Dis
union contractors refused to employ white
men. So it will soon be all over the
State, if the Geary party prevails.
—The Democracy are everywhere ju
bilant and enthusiastic. Hundreds of
Republicans, who never voted the Dem
ocratic ticket before, are openly sustain
ing the cause of Union, Restoration, and
Constitutional Liberty, while there are
thousands of the same party who will
quietly deposit their ballots in favor of a
white man's government I The skies are
bright on every side of the political hori
zon !
