giontroge ginnotrat. E.. B. ELLTVLEY, EDITOR. MONTROSE. PENIVA i WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 2, 1872. Stand by the Flag. Lot every Democrat and Liberal cast his vote for every man on the "Anti Ring Ticket," from Governor to County Coro ner. Stead by the Flag of Reform, which you have hoisted. Liberals! Vote for Him:Charles R. Buckalew, the- reform candidate for Governor. By this you will pledge faith to the Democracy, that you have lain aside all former prejudiee, end stand boldly;forth for honesty and reform. One vote for Buckalew on Tnesday next, is worth two for Horace Greeley in No vember. For by .so doing, Democrats will see that you do not ask what you are not willing to give. It will take but about 350 Liberal votes in this county, to elect our Representa tive, and we have got nearer 000. Let every Democrat and Liberal stand by the Flag. Remember, Simon Cameron, the corruptionist, wants to go to the - United States Senate again. Yon have always been sold ont by the Radical candidates of this county. Vote for a Representa tive who has always fought against Simon Cameron, and who 'will continue so to do, as long as he lives. "Down with the Rings," is the motto. Let M. L. Hawley be elected, and we pledge you that Simon Cameron, Hartmnft and the whole Radi cal Ring, "Court House," State and Na tional, will find a deadly foe. Success is certain, if you stand by the Flag of Re form. Not prejudice, but "honesty and capability," is the motto. "Down with the Rings." Taxation without representation, led our forefathers to rebel against English tyranny. The same should lead tax pay ers to rebel in Susquehan na county. We have a partizan Commission -r Board. We hear hundreds of men in both parties say that the minority should be represented. We offer yea C. C. Mills, of Dimock, a man who has long held the office of Justice of the Peace, of that town, and is known throughout the comae as "honest and capable" for the of nee of Commissioner, and also C. M. here, for Auditor, whose name is a Euffi dent guarantee for his ability. Do you mean what you say, Republicans ? Do yon want to see a non partizan Board in the Cemmissioners office, and a thorough dusting out of your papers and accounts, which have been there locked tip so many rears ? Do you desire as yeti say, that one -ran shall not control that office for •• - enty years longer? Then do your duty at the polls, next Tuesday; - FS , voting for and Gene. "Down with the Rings." Radical Groaning Post Master Stone, says he was captain :••• the torch light procession that insult d C. R'Buckalew, from the boast moral ranks of the Radical haters-in ontrose, and gave all other commands :.:.cept for the groans.: Ifiq c.'.need bins to remain silent, .and allow , ome subordinate to do that dirty work. :t dee} not speak well for his military • s• - ..ipline. He said to us that he was re .osted to bring them in line in nearer timity- to the hotel, but he refused to 8), for he was aware they would do as I.ey did. The Radical .Justice of the - !'eaca,vilio was in the prows: ion, tells his ue bands, who assemble to hear him - in different parts of the county. ..at it was the negroes and boys that did .-.. lint the editor of the Republie,vi, who as one of the number, does not feel in c'ined to be considered a negro or a boy, rilerefore he jnstifies it. They hare had o groans already. One thai night, ,ther when they saw its effects upon r•-asonable men, and if we mistake not, :hey give nether on the night of Tattiday next. The Sheriff Quesuon. e have, in the person of L C. Dodge. tai.erndent candidate for sheriff, another .leorge Francis Train, who is laboring tir , der the hallucination that he is to be ...t.eted sheriff of this county. He claims he door, having lost his property by a failure m business , . in Lucerne county,and is asking the people of this county, to ',Lice him in the responsible position of -beriff, that he may retrieve his fortune. We publish elsewhere his card from the ~r therti Pennsylvanian, claiming t, be a Radical Republican, and denying any ....tempt to deceive Democrats. We have, uce our last issue, bad further infornm iion from his own township :of Middle town, corroborating the statements we a3u*le, and also, that be still further re p rts that Mr. Kent, the reform canal will withdraw. We wish here to that Mr. Kent will not withdraw. ?I r. Kent has acted the part of an honest .....tiaidate. Not having sought the office, he said to . the Democrats of this county, ringli their vinnty committee, that sue .en was what was needed in the Reform ~..ovement against the "Rings," and if thou; ht it could be better reached ' y any other man, they were at liberty to . ..itldraw has name, and under such air ,Liaaisiaces he would desire its withdraw- :1. But the Democracy decided that he ~Lauld not withdraw. That he was their :-!ioice at their county convention. "Now, :gr.:Kent is not the man to put his hands • the plow and look back, but he will not The ‘•Court House Ring" with all vigilance until the night of the eke .• a, and if the Democracy stand by their _::adidate awl iheir convention, with the ..:1 of hoiaest ',reformers from the oppoa ...a, we will have a sheriff that will step _xi_ his office on the Ist of January next, ‘-lio has not bartered in delegates to se ,.tre his nomination, or sold, any of its before,he has obtained them. Erery vote for L ,C. Dodge, by a Demo- Usti rotes for M. B. Helms, the 2;rie-natulidate, and is of no earthly ..c.comat to Mr. Dodge, unless be bee sold to the "Ring," and has agreed aelieerna many voters as he Can to . em; Where is the man •ierapt it. Is George Francis Train or I. C: Dodge, that would be carried away with the hallucina tion, that he could at this time be elected as an independent candidate for Sheriff? The strongest personal friendship, should not lead any Democrat or Liberal, to not only throw away his vote, but make it count two for the "Ring," by casting it for Mr. Dodge. It will do him no favor but may ensure the success of the" Ring." Down with the Ring! Remember that Mr. Kent will not withdraw, and if you should see forged cards en election day, at any of the polls, you may set them down as a base trick o f the "Ring," itadleal nails Meeting. The day came and went on Satnrday last, and Radicalism in Susquehanna county pot its best foot forward, and af ter more than two weeks of the most strenuous efforts, they came out in their best paraphernalia and show, and every boy that could ride a horse, in the borough of Montrose, and who was willing to do so on that occasion, was so equipped, to the number of fifty-two, as we counted, and out of that fifty-two, twenty-one were minors. We did not attempt to make a show, and we well knew they had the money and the means, the official pat ronage of Post Masters and Assessors, upon which to draw for aid, and we had nut. We would not do so if we could, and we frankly acknowledge, if display is the watchword, we are willing to be beaten. They bad more wagone'filled with women and children, more banners, more horses, yes, more dogs trimmed with ribbons and gngaws, (as we saw sev eral in the procession,) than we bad, and a few hundred more voters, a large num ber of whom came merely to see the "shows," but their votes will be cast in October and November, for Greeley, Brown, Buckalew and Hartley, and the whole reform ticket. Could horses, wag ons, banners and dogs, vote, we might have been a little dismayed, but as they cannot, we have no report but of the brightest of prospects, for the success of Reform. The cry echoed from lip to lip, from a large number present, that we will beat you 'at the polls, with a' freeman's weapon, for our motto is, "Dow.N wrrn THE Rnins." Truth is mighty and must prevail. We have but little to say in regard to the speakers, for onr readers can find ev ery word they said in every Ring organ fur the last five years, namely, that Grant saved the country, paid the national debt and is at peace with all the world, and the rest of mankind. Admit all they ask, that Grant did save the country, which the noble rank and file now living, who stood side by side on many a hard fought battle field, both Democrats and Republicans, did just as much as Grant, yes many a vacant chair by the hearthstone, in Susquehanna eountv. witnesse• that hundreds and thousands of them did more, for they laid their lives on their country's altar; we say, fur al: this, admit for i their argument that Grant alone did save the country, and where is the argument to shield the criminality of corrupt, bond-bloated Rad icalism. There is a wide difference be tween the soldier Grant and President Gnint. The soldier Grant before the war, during the wr, and for more than two rears after the war was a Democrat. By the assistance of those gallant men, such as McClellan,Aleade, Thomas and Sherman, and the noble rank and file, both Democrats and Republicans, he was a success. But when he came down from his high niche and deserted his Democra cy, and became one of the most Radical tools of an infamous and corrupt political Ring that ever disgraced this nation, we find President Grant a most miserable failure, and while the American people should admire and extol the one they should with equal vigor denounce the other for their country's good. These of ficial cormorants say, that is personal. "We go for principles not men." They should spell the principles thus (princi pals.) We say we go for principles and honest men to carry them out, and we ask for personalities. We do not wonder that the chirman of the Radical County Committee df this county, prayed that the State Committee would send some other man here than Senator Craigan, for a man who repre sents a portion of the people in intelli gent New Hampshire, who had not brains enough to address an - audience, without reading his piece from a book, is cheap indeed. Ar.y of our school boys could hare - learned it for declamation in one tenth of the time he has been reading it around the country. Chairman Carmalt has oar warmest sympathy. We bare already taken too much space on this subject, and will close by saying that the day closed with a meeting tu the evening, addressed by several speakers, among whom was Frank Durkee, of Binghamton. We again tender our sym pathy to Mr. Carmalt, for we sea he is posted to address meetings in several pla ces in this county. We know Frank Durkee, and our pen refuses to place his picture here, but we Will merely direct Mr. Carmalt to the small boys in Bing ' hamtonifor reference. Thus ends the chapter. aff - Hlmtio Seymour, the idol of the Democracy, has taken the stump for Horace Greeley. He spoke at:Oneida Thursday evening, with his former an tagonist, Hon. DeWitt C. Littlejohn. Pendleton, who has just returned from Europe, has taken the field in Ohio.— "One blast upon his bugle horn is worth a thousand men." Under their trusted enders the great .Democratieparty iordl rally to the polls solid the chime of tratoinnatt itaid:Baltinion t Won. Stanley Woodward - Democrats! Rally for your candidate for Congress. Remember he is the son. f Hon. George W. Woodward, that pure man, eminent jurist and renowned states man, who has so long, and so ably repre sented yon at the National Capitol. We know Mr. Woodward personally, and we can assure you that he is a wo-thy chip from the parental block. Let no spirit of revenge govern you, for Stanley Wood ward has always stood by the interests of Susquehanna county. He suffered equal ly with you, in the defeat two years ago. He is going to be elected. Lazarus, and all the corrupt Radical Rings, with all their money - cannot prevent it. Reform, and "Down with the Rings," is the watchword. Liberals! Remember that Horace Greeley wants a Congress to aid him in making his administration effec tive, and let no RingGrantite creep in up on your prejudices. Stand by your prin ciples, and elect men to represent them. Vote solid for Woodward! Let Lazarus do his shoemaking at home, the next two years. ---owo•.--------- Down with the Rings Let every Democrat and Liberal in Susquehanna county, be at the polls on Tuesday next. Rally! Rally !! and re sent the base 'insult offered you and your noble leader at Montrose, by the. Radical baud of office seekers and haters, com manded by a Grant Post Master, and tail ed tip by H. H. Frazier, their party organ grinder. STAND BY THE RIC QT. AS FREEMAN, REBUKE CORRUP TION. Denounce through the ballot box, not only the corrupt treasury Ring at Harrisburg, but the low, base and in decent action of the Court House Ring, at your County seat, whose eyes Stick out with fatness, by feeding on officials spoils, and who having no other argiunent to go to the peopb with, are willing to stoop to a low-bred indecent unmitigated insult to your honored guest, and the man who ought to be, and we firmly believe, will be the next governor of the old Keystone State: Notwithstanding, the noble sou of Columbia county, travelle4 from the south eastern to the north eastern part of the State, in a tour of twenty days, stop ping and speaking in almkt every coun ty, and received the first IN' d only person al insult by the Grant collar wearers of Susquehanna county, yet let, them know that there are honest freemen in this den of hatred and persecution, who will stand forth boldly, not only for honesty and re• form, brit decency as well, and that parti zan hatred party lash, nor party corrup tion can cause them to deviate. Rally : Freemen of Susquehanna, and shake die dust off your feet, as you leave the Radi cal city, - and let a storm of righteous in dignation fall upon it. Let your action on Tuesday nest show that Rings thiev ;..a. ... en Ito aro not pa.ssriorts to offic'al trust through your rants. Show them that this is a bad year for Rings. rrazter's QuerF Will the Democrat pretend that Charles IL Buckalew is a Temperance man.— Mon /rose Republican. In answer to the above awful (?) inqui ry, we will say, that the Radical Cameron Ring of this State, have cards posted in every low grogery in Philadelphia, charg ing Mr. Buckalew with being a ten total temperance man. We have our informa tion from a leading Radical politician in this borough who, but two or three days ago, was exalting to us that the Long Branch Temperance Radical Cameron, Hartrauft Ring were sure to carry the liquor interest of that city for Hartrauft, on that ground. Whether evidence from such a source is worth anything to the ed itor of the Republican or not, we can't say. But if he wants the name of the Montrose Radical who informed us, he can have it. by calling at our office. -.....c.....- Tile Penitentnry Gang.', In order to pull wool over the eye's of the people, Yerkes, the convict, publishes statement, (not, under oath) to deny his statement under oath before Alderman Dougherty! This latter statement is the price of his pardon which the governor of Penbsylvauia granted at the earnest solicitation of the criminal parties most interested in the result of the coming election: on the very eve cf that election, when it is hoped the people may be cred ulous enough to be taken in by this trans parent fraud! To gire plausibility to this bold swindle, certain bankers of Philadel phia who pasi in public estimation for bondrable men, give deceptive certificates Now _Murk! What do these certificates prove? They simple prove that the sign ers to them have duly examined PHOTOGRAPHIC COPY of Mr. Yerkes signature to the affidavit and that it was never written by him! Prod i 7 , 7 ions ' Me phatJgraphie signature of Mr. lerkes was never written by him ! Why any goose knows that. Of course the punter did it and not Yerkes. If these immaculate bankers bad examined the signature. of Yerkes which is to be found in the office of Alderman Dougher ty. and bad then certified that his signa ture More was not genuine, some impor tance might have been attached to their certificate. But as it is, that same certif icate is, at best, a mere stricture on the capacity of the phofeyrapher who under took the work submitted to their c.=trii nation. Rustle out the Rings. rgr It only requires 350 Liberal votes in Susquehanna Co. to elect our Represen tative. We have got nearly twice that. RUSTLE 0 UT TUB RINGS TILLS Tistt o lloys?

Get in every. Tote, - - - Colonization of Negroes. The Hagerstown Mail, speaking of the colonization of negroes, in the Border counties, says: "We have heretofore re ferred to the importation of negro voters into Pennsylvania from Virginia, and we now have occasion to call the attention of our Democratic friends along the bor der to the colonization of the same clans of voters from our town. Within the last week or two, a Jorge number of idlers who were to be seen at all hours halving about our street corners, have dissappeared ; and, although never given to work, have suddenly found employment in Pennsyl vania. Many go there, of uourso„by in struction, under assumed names;"- and as it is next to impossible to distinguish one from another, their poll tax of twenty five cents being paid for them, as well as other expenses, they put in their votes and it is proclaimed throughout Christ endom that Grant is the idol of the west ern world. To our Pennsylvania friends we have simply this to say : Scrutinize every color ed voter whose indentity is not well es tablished ; for Maryland, in addition to Virgina, negroes are being colonized upon you." "and now the very worst thing on Horace Greeley, who commanded the Black Horse cavalry at Bull Run, comes from a neighboring town over the border. A Grant Demosthenes told his open mouthed hearers at Grantville, Pa., the other night, that if Greeley was elected President he would put Gen. Robert E. Lee in his cabinet, make him Secretary of War just likens Lot. Goodness gracious —gracious goodness! But this isn't all this GeOrge Washington never-tell-a-lie orator said. He declared that Gen. Lee is at the present time a Liberal and op posed to Grant. How can a man vote for Greeley with such a terrible fact star ing him in the face! The next thing we know these moral and truth-loving patri ots will goAironnd the country asserting that Nero and Benedict Arnold support Greeley. Somebody, possibly, may believe them. We should like to have peace but cannot see how we are going to get it at this rate. A WU FROM CHERRY HILL erkes on Hartranfl.. A CERTIFICATE OF GOOD MORAL CHARAC ILR.

Although wo lost heavily in our late stock specula tion, especially in Oil' Creek, I have al ways found the general to be a square man. We would have done well in Oil Creek but for the unexpected decision of the attorney general, which, as has been observed, "took the starch right out" of that otherwise good operation. I hope all my friends and admirers, and especially my late depositors and cus tomers, will vote for General Hartrauft fur governor. I owe my release from the penitentiary to his personal exertions. I hereby solemnly revoke, recall and utter ly repudiate any former statements made by me, especially under oath, touching the business operations of myzelf and the general.

Per nsylvantres War Governer Rep's diates Radicalism—Wo Declares Emphatically In Favor of the Elec tion of Bnckaleiv for Governor of Pennsylvania, MY DEAR SIR : Your favor of the inst., informing me of my nomination by the Liberal Republican - State Committee as a candidate for delegate at large to the Constitutional Convention, and maiming an address to the people of the State rec ommending myelectionearneduly to hand; but extreme illness prevented my reading the letter, or considering the subject, until now. lam still quite feeble, and unable to write without the aid of an amanuen sis; but the near approach of the elec tion, and the gravity of the issues, imme diately affecting the honor and prosperity of Pennsylvania, to be decided in October compel me to answer when my rest stould be unbroken. The nomination made by so many of the purest and best of the old representative Republicans of the State, and presented to the people upon grounds which stand out in brave contrast with the demoralized political management now so sadly prevalent, is an appeal that I can not refuse to respect. I therefore accept the nomination, and if it shall be ratified by the people, and health permits, I will discharge its duties with fidelity. I had confidently expected, immediately upon my return home, to familiarize myself fully with the details of what I well un derstood in all general aspects, touching the misrule of our commonwealth under its present political control, and to speak my convictions at the earliest possible moment. While I cannot everbe indif ferent in a Presidential contest, I felt that the renegation of my nativoState in the October election was of paramount interest to the people in whose happiness and greatness I am enlisted by every con sideration of gratitude and patriotism. The bad rule that has wholly compassed the channels of political administrative authority in Pennyulvatna is not of re cent creation. It was the tireless but im potent power that confronted the action of the Government, State and National, during the dark days of civil War, and steadily struggled to g ather advancement and gain from the better sot row of the people: Six years ago itattained control in our State. How it was achieved is re membered in humiliation by all. Why it was sought and won our subsequent his tory painfully demonstrates. The Re publican organization, that has Made its name illustrious in maintaining the unity of the State and redeeming a continent to gecelom, wet seized, in contempt of the will of the people, and its victories per verted to licensed wrong, I need not re cite how, under an honored name and fleg, it has created wide spread, indeed almost universal, distrust of authority, and made honest men despair of integrity in legis lation, in elections, in confering legisla tive honors, and even in the ad-ministra tion of pniffic justice. These terrible and steady-growing evils in our political rule have made the people demand the right to resume their sovereignty, to make Reny safe-gnards for themselves; but if the proposed convention is to effect through reform it must be aided, not hindered, by the past power of the Executive and oth er important State officials. If Mr. Buck- slew shall be defeated and a new lease of authority thus conferred upon the despot-, is control that has long misruled the commonwealth it will be marvelous in-' deed if a convention, chosen in the part isan strife of a national contest, can af ford any substantial relief or protection to the people. If Pennsylvania is to be restored to purity, the Government in ail its departments, as well as the Conven tion, must harmonize fully and earnestly in the work of rene,gatiou. Mr. BUCkit low's confessed integrity and consistent devotion to reform dining many years of official service give the best possible guar antee of honest administration and of complete restraints upon corrupt or reck less authority, and his election seems to he demanded by every consideration of individual manhood, a .d of fidelity to the honor and advancement of the State. If, as is claimed by the desperate leaders of Pennsylvania, to regenerate our State in October will affect the national contest, the cause thus to be endangered must be wanting in most essential attributes of popular confidence. Actuated solely by a sense of duty to a people, whose devo tion in times past furnishes the most grate ful memories of my life, I shall vote in October for honest government in our commonwealth, and meet the Presidential issue when it comes before the people, in accordance with my long settled convic tions. I cannot consent to sacrifice a a great contest for constitutional, legisla tive, and administrative reform because a Presidential eletiun is pending. To yield the question would give fresh victories fur misrule, and make the effort for just fundamental restraints either measurably or wholly abortive. Very respectfully, your olxlient servant, A. G. CcuTi r. To A. K. McClure, Chairman of the Liberal Republican State Committee of Pennsylvania. Saratoga, Sept., 21, 1872 —H.
