THE DEMOCRAT.
E. B. HA TY7,EY, Editor
Montrose, Wednesday, March 13,1873,
So PAM the counties of Cambria,
Northp mberlr nd, Wayne, Elk.
Sulli a, and Forest, and the city of Read
ing, haveLvoteli for liquor license under
the lona option law. It is, thus seen that
there will be for the thirsty traveler in
Pennsylvania many an oasis in the desert
of local.option.
IT i,s proposed to spend 810,000 for the
construction of a Government telegraph
connecting the White house, Capitol, and
departments. We presume it will be ex
tended to Long Branch, where most of
the exhausting °Mend labors of which the
President so feelingly complains in his in-
Angara', are usually performed.
TnE New York senate, following in the
footsteps of Congress, refused to declare
Tweed's scat in the senate vacant. This
Ras the proper thing to do. Tweed's
transactions were only a litde worse than
those of the Christian statesman. He
never did as mnch lying as Colfax, Kel
ley, Scofield and the rest oP the Credit
fdobilier gang.
Tunas is every reason to believe that
Secretary Bout well will be elected Senator
on Wednesday to-dnyand a change in the
financial policy will no doubt be the
consequence. The succession , probatly
lies between Judge Richardson•and Score.
tart' Belem!, both of whom are opposed to
Secretary Boutwell's plan of contrac
tion.
PRESIDENT Grant and Vice-President
Colfax, in their addresses, both complained
that they bad been much abused and
slandered. The . President might hare
checked-his 'own grumbling with the
thought that his partisans had slandered
his competitor, 'boned old Horace Greeley.
into a premature grave. We do not think.
that President Grant or Vice-President
Colfax were either of them slandered.
ix will take more than a million and a
quarter of dollars to pay members of Con
gress the increase of their' salaries under
the bill pissed at the expiring hours of
the last session. So eager were some of the
members to clutch the additional pay that
they put in their elaiths before the bill
bad actually been enacted into a law,
If this money does not burn and blister
the fingers,,of those who touch it we shall
be greatly mistaken.
Is alluding to the presence of the West
Point and Naval Cadets at Washington
on the 4th, the New York Tribune says:
'Called out of their beds at 4 A. M. and
taken to the Capital, they Iv( re ordered
into the procession, kopt without food all
day and exposed to the cold blasts of win
ter, and so abused that their jaunt
was only an-official sort of martydom.—
We bcpo it Gill bo discovered who is re
sponsible for this shame.'
Tan trial of Evans ended in a henry ver
dict against him, yet not as much as was
expected, for his conduct was such as to
deprive him of all claim to an allowance
as afaithful agent. He was the jackall
of facials who took from him the lion's
share of hie prey. He ran away to screen
them, and lay hid while their political in•
teresta were at stake. We hope be wall
now be obliged to tell where the money
went to, if he does not bare the means to
pay the judgement.
Gov. Dix has resiiited Foster, the ra-
San who slew with a car-hook an inoffen
sive old citizen, without a shadow of prov
ocation. This case was far more flagrant
than that of Stokes, who killed his person
al enemy, and was not dangerous to the
community at large. What American so
ciety needs, is protection fruit the reckless
ruffianism which; through long impunity,
leas come to . dispise all law. If anybody
ought to be hung. it is the desperado who
assails a man be never saw before. From
him nobody is safe, while only a Fisk Will
involve himself in such dark intrigues as
found a fatal ending from the pistol of
fitok,es.

The jury iu the case of Geo. 0. Evans,
the notorious "war claims" collector, re
turned tha following verdict on Thursday
last:
"We find in favor of the plailititf, the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, on the
first count in the snm of 6149,726.53, and
that the defendant was not an officer or
professional agent, but received the` money
in suit as a special agent appointed by the
governor of the Commonwealth, pursuant
to the provisions of thi; joint resolution
of the legislature passed the 221 day of
March, 1867, and by John F. Hartranft
the auditor general, on the 30th day of
March, 1870, vro ad said appointment
made part of this verdict, and we find that
the second and third counts of, the narr
are not supported by any evidence in the
case"
The President•• Ins:wool.
There-is nothing in the address of the
President upon the occasion of his tak
ing the oath of office, either io cheer the
country or to frighten the good people of •
the United States from their propriety.—
The inaugural:speech is made up of plat
titudes which lack even the garb of good
language and generalities that- are not
even - glittering. Perhaps the most re
markable utterance of the President is
found in the following words "It bits
been my endeavor in the past to main
tain all the laws, and se far as lay in my
power, to actior the best interests of the
whole people." It could not have occurr
ed to the Presidential mind that the nu
merous defaulters and thieves, who,-while
holding office under the present adminis
tration, have robbed the gOierninent of
untold sums, have' not, with a singlo.ex
ceptian (Payment , Hodge,) been brought
to punishment. • The President could
not have remembered 'that by his order
armed-ships of the United States turned
their pins upon the people of San Dom
ingo with whom our country was at-the
time at peace. The memory of the "Exe
cutive ever this great nation" must also
have been sadly defective with reference
to one Durell, a federal Judge in Louisi
ana, whose outrageous uuanrpation of
power has just been denounced by it
committee of the United States senate
(a majority of whom are repulidicatia,)
but whose unlawful and infamous decree
has been sustained by the administration
even to the extent of enforcing it at the
point of the bayonet. Doubtless, the
President has made it a pointm main
tain "all the laws," including Babcock's
treaty on paper with Baez, Judge Dur
ell's outrageous decree and the acts of the
custom house thieves and treasury and
post office defaulters who are a law unto
themselves.
• The country is elso informed in the
inaugural that "the theory of kovernment
changes with general progres. Now that
the telegraph is made available for com
municating thought, together with rap
id transit by steam, all parts of a contin
ent are made contiguous for all purpos
es of government." If this has any,
meaning. it signifies that in. the opinion.
of General Grant steam and tlectneity
annihilated States Rights, and that the
Federal Government is sovereign not on
ly within its constitutional sphere, but in
all respects whatsoever, by virtue of its
ability to govern the people in their do
mestic affairs by the use of the steam en
.l gine and the electric telegraph. In other"
I words, there is no longer any necessity
I for the maChinery of State governments,
and a consolodate, centralized despotism
I is not only . passible, but probable, in the',
tlearfuttiii. But we are somewhat ear
prised to understand from the language

Surely President Grant. must havei for
gotten Lonisana when he penned this
sentence. Deed' he remember tlik a
United States Judge, since branded by
Congresii, distorted a law in order to is
sue an order driving from power the regu
lar government and placing the Slate at
the mercy of a band of reckless conspira
tors; that these inept orders were en
forced by a partisan United States Mar
tial, backed up by Federal troops; tliut

-1 eers.driveu out, Governor, Judges and
Legislators, and the usurpers installed in

of the difficulty as best. it. might:; that
the Federal Government is now asked by
the usurpers to stand at their backs nna
to enforce their authority even at the cost
of the massacre of the outraged people?
And if the president has not forgotten or
overlooked Louisiana, does he intend to
'tay that the same "Executive control"
that has been exercised through Durell
and Packard and Kellogg in Louisiana

Tire followiim is an 'extract of a
speech rainy by llorace Ureeley atladian
apolis in September 1a t, in refer
ence to the Credit lifobilier Swindle:
These gentlemen contracted with them•
selves to pay themselves' twice the fair
cost, of entirely building and equipping
the,road, and building the road with; the
proceeds of, the money lent by the ,Gov-
ernment, they proceeded to divide among
themselves the other bonds, equal to the
amount for which Congress bud made a
mortgage on the entire road. By these
means e3ii0,000,000 or 830,000,000 were
divided among the parties, and all that
money so divided we are called upon to
pay. So that to-day the people of , this
country are paying some millions per an
num ont.qf their hard earnings for inter : .

road—paying this ,money as interest,to
meet the vast sums due, divided by these
gentlemen among themselves us dividends

• • Now, then, I stand here
to insist.that the legislation of your coun
try, National and State, needs purifica
tion, and, that the. leading root. of our
Government—the speakers and the mem
bers of the committees on Pacific rail
ways—should be called to justice. Such
legislation as I bare briefly exposed to
you, could not have been accomplished,
could not have been effected, without. the
connivance of men in high authority, and
these facts assure von that purification is
urgently needed.
Tbe Liberals Justified
We copy the fullowingjust and sensible
article from the Boston Post. Miring
the late cmpaign and after the defeat of
Greeley, the Radicals took great delight
in treating and speaking of B,elitirz, Sum
ner and Trumbull with the realest con.
tempt and disdain, because they had the
boldness to expose and denounce the vi
ces of their own party, but recent devel
opments have justified their course, and
now the boot is on the other leg. Here
is what the Poll says:
The treatment or these men, who have
dared to break from party harness, exp, 9e
corruption in their own ranks and cidj
for reform, was unpleasant in the extreme
when- the .present session of Congress
opened The arrogance of the victors,
their contempt fur the opinions cf the
minority, and their intrigue to reduce its
members from every position of trust and
h000r ; are fresh in every one's memory.—
'Pomeroy, with streaks of last summer's
whiteWaek still upon him, look-with

Colfax's smile was• forbidding, and Plar. I
lan's cloak of virtue more impenetrable
than ever. Now how sudden and corn-
Plete is the transformation. The Repub
lican mirrors of virtue have lostall their
reflective power forever. None do them
reverence and few pity. Sumner, Trum
bull and Schurz, who were bate few
weeksago the objects of sidelong glances,
now walk upright without the whisper of
a corrupt taint against them, the envy of
their sudden besmirched colleagues. The
time hay certainly -come, oven sooner
than was anticipated, when to be an hon
est man is more profitable than to be the
representative of a
_bribed_ constituency,
or the occupant of a position to escape

given in the same direction in'tlie future,
aided, I trust, by my. four years' experi

three of the

that condition of antra existed. There-
fore the past four years, so fur as I could
'control events, have been consumed in the
effort to restore harmony, public credit,
commerse, and all the arts of peace and
progress.
It is my firm conviction that the civil
ized world is tending , toward republican
ism, or government by the people, through
their chosen representatives, and that our
own. great Republid is destined to be the
guiding star to ail others. Under our Re

when he_ traveles let him feel assured that
his. conduct will .regillete the treatment

Another Morse Mirage
During the last few weeks, says the
N. Y. Journal of Commerce, the owners
of valuable roadsters in Brooklyn and
New York. have been startled by the
appearance of disease among their horses
which renders them incapable of their
usual work. ' The disease first 'manifests
itselthy tenderness of the feet: All over
the city the signs of the disease are visible.
The horses attache& to every' kind of
vehicle are limping/along the streets with
their legs swat bed" and bandaged. The
absence of fine horses as everywhere re
marked. Tlte•owners of livery stables re
fuse to let out teams except Ito , regular
customers. Sick !torsos are seen to front ,
of nearly all of the ears. - '• •
