A J)IIRB9S
or THE
REPUBLICAN COUNTY COMMITTEE
Felloe Citizens. —A call addressed to “all
the opponents of the National Adwmutrut-on
in Allegheny —a call wide enough and broad
enough to embrace men of all parties, hitherto
who can unite upon the common ground of
hostility to the infamous administration of
James Buchanan—brought together on the 3d
of June, the largest delegate convention that
ever assembled in the county. That conten
tion—second to none that ever'preeeded it, in
intelligence and weight of character put in
nomination a county ticket in support of which
:we invite your hearty co-operation. All of
the nominees thus presented are men of pro
bity, intelligence, capacity and integrity; and
we know of no reason why the various political
elements so fully represented in the conven
tion, should not cordially unite in giving to
them a warm and vigorous support. Most
certainly- the sad state ol the country under
the misrule which is now affiictiog it, should
prompt every patriotic-minded citizen to give
his aid in overthrowing the party whose rule
is so fatal to tho nation.
PROPER DISTRIBUTION OF THE ASSEMBLY TICKET.
Some complaint has beou made, that in the
selection of the Assembly ticket no one of the
nominees' was selected from the townships
south of tlie Monongahcla and Ohio. The
failure to select one from that side of the n\er
grew mainly out of a state of affairs that can
hardly happen again; but in order to provent the
possibility of it, this Committee has charged it
self with theduty uf presenting to thencxlnomi
natingConvention apian which willobviatothe
difficulty, and renderaproperdistributioaofthe
i Assembly ticket, hereafter, a mutter of* cer
| tainty We recogniic the claims of the aouth-
I em section of the county to a representation
upon the Assembly ticket, and knowing that
the present distribution was not designed, but
grew incidentally out of the lack of a proper
rule on the subject, we shall use our best en
deavors to prevent a recurrence of what is now
complained of. The opponents of locofocoism
in that section of the county aro too generous,
we know,' to take offence from an accident
whero no offence was intended, especially in
the face of the full recognition of their claims
which is horoin accorded, and for the protec
tion of which, in the future, we have taken
ample measure’*.
GEN. JAMES MOORHEAD.
Reports having boon circulated ohurgiug
political unsoundness upon the nominee for
(Woss in the 21st District.-Gen. Jamm K
Mookuxad. we append “ it ” l
from that gentleman, which « frank, full and
explicit, and leaves nothing more to he naked
for. From the fact that that gentlemen has.
in times past, acted with the locofoco party, to
which he adverts in his letter, thafjliartv is
now moving heaven and earth 4
his defeat, and we may rest satisfied that any
man whom THEY are anxious to defeat is ■■oo
whom we may safely trust. We ismimend him
to the generous support of overy eQC m y n ' y
co.focoism, as wo do evory nomince.wbo occu
pies a place on the ticket with him.
TAXES FOR RAILROAD rCßp|sEs.
The Convention took no action oh the
of Taxation for Railroad purposes, beoausP ' t™
position of the party had been previously dehoe*
in a resolution adopted in the Convention h«U£ l
the Court House on the 6th day of January,lBs^
That resolution took ground against the im
position of taxes to pay interest on ratlroail
bonds issuod by tho county until the legal lia
bility of the county to pay said interest bad
been determined by the Courts of last resort,
after n full judicial investigation of all the facta
connected with tho railroad subscriptions. In
that view wo concur, and so do the candidates
upon our ticket. The Republican party, as *
party is in no way connected with these unfor*.
tnuate and ill-advised uutjacriptions, as they
were all xcado before it came into existence .
bat the questions growing out of those subscrip
tions are questions of to-day, which have to be
met, andws have no inclination M shirk them
or give them the go-by. Grave doubts have al
ways existed, and now more than ever, as to the
constitutionality, legality and binding force of
these subscriptions; and inasmuch as they im
pose a grievous burden of debt upon the people,
there is a manifest necessity that those doabts
should be solved and all the questions involved
I brought to the test of legal scrutiny before the
i burden is shouldered. As a party we are
not In favor of Railroad taxation, and will not,
t consent to the voluntary imposition and colleo
i Uon of such taxes. The whole matter is j
| n ow in the hands of the judicial tribunals of the |
l country for examination and adjudication, and
i until those tribunals have passed upon the facts
and the legal questions raised, and directa tax
to be levied for the payment of interest on rail
, road bonds, it is boi proper that no steps should
betaken that would either embarrass or seem to
anticipate their decision. The Supreme Court
whoso decision will determine this question is
composed exclusively of democrats, and If that
Court decides that the tax must be levied, the
democratic party, and not ours, must be held
responsible. Wo are authorized by our can
didate for County Commissioner to say that,
if eleoted, he will vote as a member of the
Board against the levy of a railroad tax until
the Supreme Coart, which has the subject in
hand shall compel him to do it, and by our
candidates for the legislature that they will vote
for no law authorizing such levy.
THE TOHIiAdH TAX.
In Stale politics,' one of tho gravest questions
that will oome before the next Legislature will
be the repeal of the Tonnage Tax. The Fonn-
I sylvania Railroad has been etruggUng for years
to get thlstax repealed, and will mako a strong
er effort next winter to accomplish its repeal
I than brer bofore. The revenue to tho Stale from
that tax is $200,Q00 annually. If it is repealed
i that sum must bo made up by direct taxation
Imposed upon the peoplo. And why should it
bo repealed ? The friends of the Railroad Com
pany, when pressing the Legislature to grunt
the charter, held out the revenue to bo derived
from thlß tax ns an inducement to the passage
of the oharter. and as an assurance to tho State
that it would thereby be compensated for the
loss of any revennes that might result from the
diminution of business on the .oanaL Tho Slate
! cannot afford to losell, and the people cannot afford
ito pay it, and the question is simply whether
the railroad shall be released from a tax which
It voluntarily agreed to pay when it got its
charier, o- whether the people will take that ad
ditional burden upon themselves. We think the
people are already sufficiently burdened; and
that the Railroad Company baring got nd of
the competition of the publio works by destroy
ing their usefulness, and obtained possession of
them for a mere fraction of what they cost, can
afford to contribute its share, which it barely
does in the payment of the Tonnage Tax, towards
defraying the expenses of the Government, to
whoso favor it is so mnch indebted. . We are j
authorized by oar candidates for Uie Legislature i
to say that if elected they will volo persistently
against the repeal of the Tax.
THK TtVB WILL COCHYT TAX.
A resolution adopted by the convention, cen
soring the extravagance of tho County Commis
sioners as evidenced in the heavy levy for county
pnrposes this year, has beon construed into a
reflection on the Commissioners for having re
called tho railroad tax levied last jew. No
snob mooning properly attaches to the resolution.
It merely condemns the seeming extrsvaganco
whioh calls for a levy of five mills for county
and grew out of tho fact that oounty
warrants’ to tho extent of $50,00° °v $OO,OOO
are now floating around throughthe community
with no money in tho Treasury topay them. Had
snch a thing ooonrred under a Republican admin
istration of county affaire, the looofocoa would
have exhausted the langoage « denouncing it;
we have contented ourselves with calling tho nt
lention of tho people to the facta.
On tho other current questions of the day the
Convoniion passed resolutions denouncing the
English-LecomptonbilJ, andthsterrlblo extrava
gant of tho national and also
one in favor of a tariff for the protection of
American industry.
TJJX MOUTH SWINDLE.
Wo need hardly .oil your aUentiou fcUow
ritiicna, to the baseness of the English bill and
the corrapt means by which it was passed. Af
ter trying in vain to force the Lccompton 1 ro-
Slavery Constitution upon the people of Kansas
against their almost unanimous protest, ana
after tho failure of every attempt to give perma
nent vitality to that greatest of all
dies, the Administration, by Iho appUcation of
tbs most corrupt means, forced through
Stale under the Lecompton Constitution, which |
the people of Kansas taro already twice or
thrice indignantly rejected ; and the penalty for
refusing to accept the bribe is Iheir «clns.cn
: from the Union until their mas era choose to
: admit them. The present P°P“>» :0 “ »/ f“sas
■is about 40,000. The English bill says, in sub
stance, that if Kansas choosesto ‘nt° the
Union as a S/a« State, W 000 in population
enough; but if she chooses to b» a Free Stale,

Mnct.'-'- SLAVERY t-POS K.AB9AS._
The grit effort of the national administration
has been to /„r« Slavery
bring her linto the Union as a Slate Sta,- To
this ind tie Dred Scott decision of the Supreme
Court was made; to this end tho pabho voice
of the people of Kansas has been smothered; to
this end her citizens hare been persecu ed,,
hunted and butchered like wild beasts; to thisj
end all sorts of villainy have been practised in*
conducting her oleotions to defeat the will or
her pcoplh and present them ftop exercising
the inalienable prerogatire of self-government ;
and to this end the Lecompton swindle was
adopted by the administration, nod when it fail
ed, the English juggle adopted n its stead So
persistent has this effort been that the friends
of republican institutions and free government
are impeijativcly called upon to band together
against tho administration to preserve to the
people of Kansas, if possible, the rights, immu
nities aadf privileges of sslf-Bovernment. These
have been and arc now denied to them, and will
be, until tho dominant party is unv«n from
power. ,
EXTRAVAGANCE OTTHE HATtONAL ADHINtSTRATIOH.
The of the National Adminis
tration U of : Qfr moat astoundingbind It chal
lenges tblj atlefition of the peopio. Never has
the nation been worse governed than now and
nover has the goveromeot cost so much. Since
James Boobanao has become President the gov
ernment has become bankrupt, the flog of the
country ha 4 been violated, the territory of the
nation desolated by the rebellious but unpunish
ed Monrions, corruption pcrmeateß eTcry do
partmentlof the public service, and the nationa
expenditures have almost doubled. The Iml
year of President Pierce cost the people SoS,-
000 000; the first sixteen months of President
Buchanan has already cost us $ llo,000,000; and
that, too, in a lime of profound peace.
There was in the Treasury on the Ist of March
1857, a surplus of over twenty millions- 1°
December following the Secretary c>f the Trea
sury called for an issuo of $-0,000,000 of Trea
sury noiei, which was granted, and the late
session of Congress authorized a further loan of
co 0 000 000. In addition to this the govern
ment has collected from all sources in these six
teen months, a revenuo of over $o5,000,000;
and in order to show that nono of it will be left
when Congress meets again, the Secretary of the
Treasury, iu asking for the $20,000,000 loan,
says that it will betime enoogh, when Congress
meets, “to provide for future contingencies.
The “future contingency" that awaits us is a
new loan of $20,000,000 or 510.000.000i0 carry
the administration through its second year.
The account now stands thus :

as cheaply conducted now, as then; but the 1
horde of vam pyres that have fastenad upon the
treasury must bo fed ao<l the poor people must
pay the expen3ee.
The following table showing the expenso of the
General Government, exclusive^ of the public
debt, the population, and thejmte for each in
habitant from 1789 to tiic present time, exhibits
the enormous increase during the lasi few years:

•.Estimated. The preceding calculation of $ll5,

In 1830, in Geb Jackson’s time, the expendi
tures were $13,00u.000, nnd the population was
nearly as many millions. The amount to each
inhabitant was $1 08. In 1810, it amounted to
$1 40 foreaeh inhabitant. Butnow it la $3 00
to each inhabitant, or $3O 00 to every free fam
ily, upon the basis of the census of 1850, show
ing the number of families to bo three million
three hundred and eixty-two thousand three
hundred and thirty-sevoa, or $23 to every voter
Of tho four million fifty-four thousand four hun
dred and fifty at the Presidential election in
1850. While the population has iucroased seven
fold, the expenditure has increased, up to this
year,[forty-eight fold. The aggregate expense?
of Pierco’a administration, exclusive of pay
ment? on the publio debt, was $232,820,632,
which is $60,000,000 more than the entiro ex
penses of the government from its foundation to
the close of tbe war in 1815. And the expense
of the first year of Mr. Buchanao’s adin.uisira
uon is some $5,000,000 more than tho aggre
gate expeuses of the first twenty of the Govern
ment.
But a more serious matter to the people of
this country is to be found in tho fact that while
the revenue of the government has fallen off,
owing to the revulsion which took place in
1867 and dißtress has fallen upon llio nation in
consequence ol tho prostration of all branches
of industry, the party in power absolutely re
fuses to revise the tariff, either to increase tho
revenue or rcstoro prosperity to the people. It
finda tho government unable to get along without
borrowing, yet will not take any steps to in
crease the revenue ; it sees every branch of na
tional industry paralysed, yet refuses to remodel
the tariff, so as to afford, at once, protection to
tho workingman and increased revenue to he
government. In this emergency it behooves the
people to show themselves equal to the crisis by
demanding suoh a revision of tho tariff as will af
ford protection to American industry, restore
acliyity to our workahopa and furnish employ*
ment to the suffering thoußanda to whom a piti
less and unworthy government has hitherto
turned a deaf oar. This is a great national
auction, and ono demanding tho immediate at
tention of the people; and the only sure way of
obtaining tho desired relief and accomplishing a
return to the Protective prinotplo Is to dofeat
tho party in power and to return to Congress
such men as Will giro heed to the popular cry
and minister to the publio wants.
' Such, fellow cilisons, are the gTavc subjects
oommended to your attention. The hational
Administration loaves you noallornatlve, as freo
men, but to rebuke and defeat it. Its unholy
bourse in Kansas, its corruption and extrava
gance, and its utter neglect of the great interests
of the industrial community show that it la false
to its trust, and that it can never be sufficiently
punished until it is completely
The first Step in that overthrow is to be taken
this fall; and in accomplishing that we mvoae,
