Election, Tuesday October 11, 18711
—E. C. Fordharn is Assessor for the
borough of Montrose. Register at once..
"Extra" Law Judge.
'l'he Judicial canvass has really assumed
an extra position indeed, , and in view of
the situation, we feel it our duty to give a
little biography of the candidates, Mid set
forth what we believe to be the impera
tive duty of Democrats. •
P. D. Morrow, who is claimed by the
Republicans of Bradford and a portion of
this county to be the regular nominee, is
one of the full-fledged Nfercur Republi
cans of Bradford county. As to his mer
its as a Judge, the people of this county.
have had a good opportunity to judge.—
We are told that the office of Judge
should not be a political office, with which
we most heartily concur; but when we
see that this most useless office was snap
ped upon this district by base political
wire-pulleis for no other reason thap to
further their partizan schemes without
the wish or consultation of the people,
there is no room for doubt that it is one
of the basest of party tricks, and we pre
pose to treat it as such. Therefore, when
Democrats are asked to support P. D.
Morrow on personal or judicial merit,
they are asked to bolster up their sworn
enemies.
The other faction present B. S. Bent
ley, under the name of " bolter," and with
their snake-like charmers hope to whee
dle Democrats into supporting him ont of
policy, and make some of the. sweetest
of promises of future protection. The
Democrats have not forgotten the protec
tion they received from B. S. Bentley in
1358, when David Wilmot was presented
as a candidate for President Judge in this
distract. te then came out u furious lion
hearted bolter, and went so far as to send
to the Democratic Convention, while it
was in session, that if they " should make
no nomination he would stand by them,"
and they so acted. What did Mr. Bentley
do ? He went to Bradford county with
the apparent bravery of a lion, and came
hack again meek as a lamb, and betrayed
the Democracy by resigning in favor of
Wilmot. The Radical " fire-wateC of the
Bradford "Ring" proved too ailing for
him. And now, will they have the an
dacity to ask Democrats a second time to
support this bolter? We think they had
better not do it more than once, if they
have an thick boots.
The resignation of Judge Woodward
has left our ticket without any candidate
fur sinecure Judge, and if by our action
we could overturn the miserable law that
forced the office. upon ns, most gladly
would we do so, but such is not the case.
Therefore we call upon the County Com
mittee for immediate action in this mat
ter, and that they place a man in nomin
ation. The Democratic party of this
county wiW call them to an account if
they shirk their duty. No collusion, fus
ion, or any other " usion" will excuse
them. These are played out. The De
mocracy of this eounty are organizing up
on a basis of principles, and they propose
to stand by the pure old Democratic
white man's flag, and all who shirk re
sponsibility, or waver in duty, must take
the consequences.
A Splendid Fiasco.
What a splendid failure the Scranton
and Montrose editors have made in at
tempting to injure our candidate by call
ing him a "Union Leaguer," thinking
they could deceive the people into the be
lief that it had something to do with one
of their secret Leagues. In their haste to
condemn our candidate, they have unwit
tingly acknowledged the fact that it would
be a damnable offense to any candidate
to be known to the people as a member
of their organization, which we accept,
and pity their poor Shoemaker for this
very reason.
It is amusing to see them claim the
doctrines of "supporting the Constitu
tion and the Lows," for advocating which
they called Democrats 'Union Sliriekers"
before the war, and "traitors" and "cop
parheuds" daring that time. It comes
with a wonderful grace from the leading
organs of a party whosejeaders denounced
the Constitution as "a league with
death and a covenant with hell."
We knew that Radical leaders would
steal anything they can get their hands
upon, even to "spoons," but we were not
quite prepared for such an attempt to
steal Democratic principles right before
the eves of every school boy. They mast
consider the rank and file of their party
as fools. But this is simon pure Raical
ism. We hope the voters of this district
will look at this not as ,party bigots, but
as reasonable men, and fet it govern your
acts in October.

subscribed ttieir names :
At the next meeting all which were
public, being held in the Court House and
men of all parties were present at one of
which we are informed A. J. Gerritson
former editor of the Democrat made a
peach which was greatly applauded, the
following resolutions were adopted which
we suppose is where the "dog lies" as the
name of J.B. McCollum appears as one of
the collimate who drafted them:
" Re-mired, That the restoration of the Union
upon the basis of the National Constitution, is
errnesl ly 'Tisired by all truly loyal men; and it
is the plain duty of such to forget all party
schemes and prejudices in a united effort to
save the Republic.
Rracrheat, That the present wicked and cause
less Rebellion should be crushed by the whole
power of the Federal Government, and the
National authority restored over all the revolted
States; and we are in favor of devoting our
whole resources, If necessary; totheaccomplish
men( of the object."
RTsohred, That parties which seek in any way
to embarrass the lawful Government while
defending itself against an enemy in arms, nev
er survive, but die an ignominious death and
are remembered in history as infamous; it was
so with the tortes of the Revolution; It was so
with the }team party of 1812 ; and such must be
the fate of any organization that may be still
ing to divide with itself the odium with' which
public sentiment throughout the civilized world
now regards the rebellion against the Union.
Emil-Ts-I, That in the effort now being made
by the Government to suppress the Rebellion,
every citizen, no matter to what political party
he may have been attached, whether he be high
or low, rich or poor, is alike interested in, the
success of this effort, and upon Its success de
pen& the comfort and -welfare of every family
throughout the States which ant yet tmtrodden
by the heel,of the Rebellion. ,
Resrired, That loyalty to such a Dovertunent
as ours is the duty of every citizen; that our
remedy for rnis-government is'not rebellion, hut
the ballot-box; that he who in such a crisis
seeks to paralyzed the National ann, IS an en
emy to that (orlon and Constitution which has
never tailed to protect his life, his liberty, and
promote his happiness so long as he discharged
the obligutions due from every loyal citizen ;
that in attacking its authority or In refusing to
maintain the honor of its flag, he becomes an
alder and abettor of truison, and should be
punished to the full extent of his crime.
Rsiolred, That in union there is strength; this
meeting resolves Itself into a National League,
pledging itself to an UNCONDITIONAL sup
port of the UNION, the Constitution, and the
Government, no matter by whom administered,
in its efforts to suppress the Rebellion an
secure a pence, not by compromise, but by con
quest, as well as the discouraging of treasonable
manifestations in whatever form they may Op
pea r.
Resotreel, That we are apposed to the Inter
vention or mediation of any Foreign Power in
our present troubles, preferring to settle Our
own difficulties in our own way; and- , alt
propositions to that effect which may be made
by any foreign State or Ration, ought to be
rropectfully but unequivocally declined by our
Government.
Our readers are aware that a short time
previous to the holding of these meetings,
those Sourthern Fireaters, like the north
ern Radicals, deserted every principle of
Democracy and the salutary basis of our
Constitution and Government, and in
stead of appealing to the ballot 1;4, as
ever has been the ruling prinepleof . Dem
ocracy, disgraced our nation by ruthlessly
firing upon our National Ensign.
The President called upm the people
of this nation to jrally to the _Enppott of
the Constitution and the laws which, was
then supposed to be our Government, and
the facts wilt sustain us in saying that
never in the history of any nation did the
people obey the aft of their country,
irrespective of party, as did the people of
the North * that time, and many are
the Democratic hearth' stones that were
made, desolate in this county, as Well, as
the whole Northern Statei. Public trieet
ings like the above were held.everreirres.

of Democracy. 'Bee-ange Radicalism has
Etaraeled them as theirsbefore . the people,
to gain power and basely deserted them
in every part of the'esecutivo government,
does not destroy their Dernaeratie purity.
If such is dot democratic Where would be
our Qeo. 13., McClellau, Hancock - , 'Pen
dleton, Seymour and Packer, and ,all the
noble leaders of our party. But it is
said that, at the head of the proceedings
of those meeting are printed in large
capitals "Union League." You may
head the proceeding of one of our coun
ty fairs Union League and does it make
it so? There never was anything but a
Union'Leagne in the Democratic party.
The Union, Constitution and the Laws,
ever has been and is to day their glorions
watchword. Where-oar friends, some of
them, have been frightened is at the
similarity of the name with "Loyal
League" of which we hare no knowledge
hence we will let another speak who has,
which we copy from a correspondent of

111eCtdium not a Loyal Leaguer.
Editor of the Torr.s.
SCRANTON . , Sept. 21
I see the Repablienn rejoices greatly this morn
ing treatise the editor thinks that a few days
since he told the truth In an editorial in his
paper. If this were-therease, it certainly would
be a n‘atter,for i self7oungratulationi but :unhap
pily tbettets undliis editbrial do not agree. I
am sorry to see a man who calls himself a Re
publican editor, so ignorant of the organization
of the Loyal League, as to suppose that a public
Meeting in the Court House could be organized
as a branch of that body. I suppose, though,
it would be vain to expect anything better of a
man who locates Francis Joseph at Berlin, and ,
snakes him Emperor of the Prussians The
Loyal League was first started by the union
men of Tennessee at the beginning of the war,
and was intended as an offset to the Knights of
the Golden Circle. It is not and never has been.
anything but a secret society. It is true that
after a branch has been organized and in work
ing order, a few meetings have been held,
but no members were even taken in or business
transacted at such meetings. The only branch
of the Loyal League of America that was ever
organized jn .Montruse was organized and the
meetings held in a room over Cushman's store.
The meetings were secret, and none could enter
without the regular sign and password. The
meetings at the Court House in Montrose were
not the meetings of a Loyal League. The
Constitution and By-Laws, the ritual and pledge
of the Loyal League of America were In ex.
istence sometime before the meeting at the
Court Hoow in Montrose, and were not prepar
ed and invented by Jessup and others, us the
editor of the Ncraalan Republican seems to think.
Because the meeting happened to he called
Union League meeting it no more made those
who attended it toolllbora of dm Loyal Lcogn,-
than would the calling of a horse an elephant
make it so. The resolutions that McCollum
signed, and the pledge of a Loyal Leaguer, arc
two entirely different things. I assert that J.
B. Mef'..ollturt is not and never has been a mem
ber of the Loyal League of America. I will
deposit in the Second National Bank of Scran
ton one hundred dollars and Mr. Scranton may
do the same, and the one who has lital shall lose
his money ; the money lost to be paid over to
the Treasurer of such inebriate asylum as Mr.
Scranton may designate. Mc. Wm. Frink was
the Secretary of that branch of the Loyal
Lcape organized at Montrose and the records
are - in his possession or that of his suceessOr,
and the truth can be easily ascertained. Of
course Mr. Scranton will not be atlnid to back
his word with his money.
- Now hi view of the above facts to all
personal enemies of our nest Congress

gSonie one said to us that we made
a mistake in giving the extra expense of
the "extra" law judge to be $5,000, as the
salary is only $3,500, We calculated the
balance of $l, 500 would perhaps collect
it. But in casting about we find that 'ire
have made a mistake. Under Radical
rule it requires two dollars to collect one,
hence we see, that we should have put it
at $lO,OOO, as the gross expense, instead
of five.

record has really the force of written tes
timony.
It is well known that there was a great
diversity of opinion among the people in
regard to the Declaration, und.thr probe
bihty-is that the vote ()mitred as stated ;
on Judge Morton's monument, and was
made unanifitons after the question had
been decided by the majority—a very
common practice among the deliberative
bodies when unanimity is essential to suc
cess. The fact that Judge Morton was
censured for his vote by the enemies of
the Declaration would, and doubtless did,
impress the friends of the Union more
fully with the idea that Pennsyhania oc
cupied the keystene position.
Sanderson's Livee of the Signers."
published in 1823, vol. VI, page 21Q, says:
-No wonder, then, that Mr. 3lotton ex
perienced the most intense anxiety of
mind when he was required to give The
casting vote of the Pennsylvania delega
tion—a vote which would either confirm
or destroy the unanimity of the Declara
tion of Independence." "Lieber's Ency
clopedia Americana," published in 174'2,
vol. 9, page 57, says : "Mr. Morton gave
the casting vote of Pennsylvania it favor
of Independence?' and characterizes it as
"an act ofsb t .mal intrepidity." "Loss bug's
Lives of the Sig ners," published in 1 - 4
tetyt: "MrMorton WaS called on official
ly to give the casting vote of Pennsylva
nia ; that it was a solemn responsibility
thrown on him ; it was for him to decide
whether there shonla be a unanimous
vote of the Colonies for independ,enc..,
but he firmly met the responsibility and
voted 'yes' and front that moment the
United Colonies were declared independ
ent States." There is much other author
ity to prove chat Pennsylvania voted last,
and made the Declaration unanimous.
This fact coupled with her geographical
and legislative poailiou, could not have
failed to bring to the minds of many t he
old idea of the unity and strength of the
arch and its Keystone, and cause them in
the fervor of patriotic feeling to claim fur
Pennsylvania this proud position. The
events we have recited enlisted the
strongest sympathies of the people at the
'time of their occurrence, and the promi
nent place oeetyied by Pennsylvania
must have possessed the minds of all with
the appropriateness of the insignia the
moment it was uttered. Wins tirst.,gave
a public expression to the idea is not
known. It might have 'occured to the
minds of hundreds of people iu every
county Of the States at. the same time. It
certainly rests on geographical, historical,
and tradition grounds, and we therefore
think the antiquarian who still clings to
the Rock Creek Bridge story deserves .to
be elected a 'member of the celebrated
Pickwick ('lub.

If a modern violin is played by the side
