THURSDAY, MAY 18, 1876.
fiS"" Governor llartranft, for his veto of
the bill for paying the expenses of the one
sided committee of the House, appointed
last winter to investigate the Treasury
Department, deserves the thanks of every tax
payer in the State. For its own sake the bil
should have been vetoed, for it was neither
more nor less than a scheme to manufacture
political capital to be employed in assisting
Democracy to retain its hold in the House,
and to increase its powers by furnishing aid
fur other and still more important successes.
Dut, as the Governor shows, the committee
was an illegal creation, indirect violation oi
the constitution, and his duty to veto was
imperative. For this reason, to have signed
the bill would have been a counivance at
Treasury robbery, which the Governor is
determined, as he always has been, not to
have pinucd to his skirts. Governor Ilart-
rauft has always, heretofore, been held to be
;imong the opponents of the new constitution.
This act of his, however, with many others
which have preceded it, shows that if thus
opposed to it, the fundamental law of the
State will uot lack a brave and uncompromis
ing champion of its requirements so long as
he remains in office. It is enough for the
Governor to know that we have a fundamen
tal law, to ensure his careful carrying cut of
its provisions. His conduct, therefore, in
the instance of this veto, will meet the un
qualiGed approval of every lover of law in the
State. The Democratic leaders and presses
lo not, of course approve the course of t he
Governor, which it was natural to expect
arm wmcn, tiicreiore, causes no surprise in
constitution loving and law abiding circles.

1'endleton,
5? Our friend of the Faston Argus is
nothing if not witty ; and yet his wit betrays
itself to be of that poignant kind which indi
cates that he is beset by grief rather than
that happy state which indicates content
ment. Xor can we blame, though we do not
sympathize with him. lie publishes a paper
unsurpassed by but few other withiu our know
ledge, and makes the most and best of a bad
cause. "But his surroundings are bad ; and
his out loo'; being hedged in by gloomy for
bodings ho is not to blame if his wit occasion-Is-
breaks forth tinged with the garrulous.
The jEFi UsoxiAN'' assertion of a few weeks
ao. that promiuent Republicans whose skirts
appear tainted with political corruption are
"us dead toads in a puddle," fairly stunned
him. It was a boldness of expression coin
inon to Republican editors, but unknown to
the experience of the Democratic brethren,
ami he could not understand it. It was,
however, founded on truth, and of course
will, in Republican circles, prove a law for
the condemnation of the delinquents. Demo
cratic editors notably fail to practice on this
theory. Their efforts to fasten corruption on
Republicans in high places, though lament
ably unsuccessful, was cot without damaging
results to themselves. In scotching our
snakes they signed some of their own most
highly lauded and venerated gods, but not a
word of condemnation escaped their lips on
the contrary they became vehement in their
ics fur the fiascos of their great men.
succeeded in fuelling $140,000
from the treasury, and then supplemented
the act by robbing his widowed sister and her
orphaned children of their share of the spoils;
Hendricks hobnobbed with Gatlin gun specu
lators and was compelled to hide himself
away until his hands were relieved of the
sticking pitch which besmeared them ; Thur
man as the body guard of the Atlantic and
Great Western Railway thieves, sent mourn
ing and desolation into the homes of the
widows and orphans who had invested -their
all in its promising stock and bonds ; Tiiden,
"under oath, acknowledged dealings with
Tweed, under which a portion of New York
city's stolen monej' found its way to where
it promised to do most good for Democracy.
Thus went out the shining lights of its party
but wheu did the Argus condemn these men
frr their foul deeds, and when did it do any
thing else but stand up and apologise for
them? Echo answers when. Rut says the
A rgus, the Jr.FJ"EUSONlAN "has twice labored
fur Ilartraaft's election, and in this year has
advocated that gentleman's further elec
tion." And why not? Governor llartranft,
has as the Argus calls him, proved to be in
d?cd "Honest John F. llartranft." That is
why we supported and now support him ;
a ad that is why the people have continued to
support him, notwithstanding the villainous
lies invented, and persisted in, by the Argus,
and its cotemporaries for so many long years.
They have charged Governor llartranft with
all sorts of villainy, peculation, fraud, and
ring operations, but their proofs have been
only their unsupcrted words, while the acts
of John F. llartranft, in every position to
which he has been called, have proved himj
to m the far sighted statesman, the untiring
public servant, the watchful guardian of the
public interest and treasure and the honest
man. Deeds speak louder than words, and
the people chose rather to be judged by the
former than by the latter, which were mere
inventions of the enemy, ia settling their de
termination to reward a faithful public ser
vant. When the Argus learns that stealing
means the same thing, whether perpetrated
by leading Republicans or Democrats, and
lives up to the knowledge by condemning
rascality and being just even to a political
opponent though the heavens fall, it will
have inaugurated an era which cannot fail to
build up brighter skies for its party's future,
and bring peaceful hopes to its supporters,
with whom now dwells only the acrid disap
jK!ntniei:t of defeats long coutinucd. The
experiment is worth trying, aal wseonrrp.end
' it to our friend.
fiS" That was a most disgraceful act o
the New York Union League Club on Thurs
day night last, the blackballing of Secretary
Bristow. No man stands higher with men o
all parties in the country than he. Not a
word can be truthfully said against either his
honor, his honesty or his patriotism, and ye
ten men of the New York Union League
were found so contemptibly mean as to say
by their ballots that he was not a fit socia
associate for them. And possibly, after al
they were right-possibly at the very time when
he was braving the displeasure of relatives
and friends by marching forth to fight the
battles of his country, they were drawing the
life's blood of that country by depreciating its
credit, speculating in its necessary supplies
selling it rotten ships and shoddy clothing
for the brave men in front, and urging on the
war only that they might the more readily
grow rich out of its necessities. Possibly,
again, while Secretory Dristow was heading
off raid.3 upon the treasury in shape of frauds,
and bringing whisky ring and other thieves
to grief and their just places in the peniten
tiary, these black bailers were interfered with
by his persistence, and made to tremble at
the simple contemplation cf the man, and
hence took this method to ensure their being
secured from his presence. This is more
than likely ; indeed, it is said that the man
who inaugurated the casting of the black balls
took this method to spite the Secretary for
having stood by the treasury and his oath to
piotect it, against an attempt to inflict upon
it a square, baldfaced robbery. This beincr
the case every right minded man will fee
that the Secretary was more honored in his
defeat than he would have been, in success
It is no honor for any man to belong to a club
which numbers among its members sucl
parasites, who do uot hesitate to bring within
the social circle their mean, contemptible
spites, and the sooner the league weeds them
out the sooner it will redeem its lost credit,
and render itself worthy the respect of the
honest, honorable men of the land. In this
contest the will of one hundred and eighty
honorable high minded patriots was overruled
by a scum comprising ten votes. This show
that the sooner the effective strength of the
former is emploj-ed successfully in rooting
out the latter, the sooner will the league
deserve and receive the respect cf patriots
everywhere.
Tiic Centennial.
Wednesday marked an important epoch,
in the opening of the World's Fair, gotten up
in commemoration of the hundredth anniver
sary of our National independence. It is
estimated that over one hundred thousand
strangers, representing nearly every known
quarter of the globe, were present in Phila
delphia and took part in the ceremonies,
either as participants or spectators. The
whole affair procession, inauguration cere
monies, lookers on, the grounds, the exhibi
tion buildings and the matters exhibited,
formed a grand pageant such as the world
never witnessed before. Men used to great
scenes men experienced in journalism, and
possessed of most florid descriptive poweis,
and men staid and sober in their lives, walk
and conversation, unite in pronouncing the
affair grand beyond the power of words to
describe. In extent, variety, and success,
all agree that this effort of the new world to
commemorate the Centennial of its existence,
and to bring together in one common exhibi
tion the productive skill of the world, in
science, in refined and mechanic arts, ia
general handiwork and in the promotion ofa
glorious liberty, exceeds by far everything of
like character heretofore attempted. The
incidents cf the affair too, are something
marvelous, the uniting in a common object
the ruler3 and subjects and skill of despotism,
with the people, the servants and the handi
work of free men in celebrating the Centen
nial ofa nation built up with liberty as the
foundation and the protection of the best
interests of its subjects as its chief corner
stone. Despotic Egypt, the so called oldest
nation, Turkey and China vie with the more
liberal States of Europe in making the cele
bration of the Centcnr.ial of American liberty
in the younger nation a success. The
thought may possibly be grasped, but the
full measure of its significance is wholly be
yond human comprehension. It is not pre
tended that the exhibition is complete as yet,
but enough has been accomplished to force
from the lips of all beholders the startling
enunciation "prodidgious." The busy
hum of preparation still resounds through
out the grounds and buildings, and a month
or six weeks must yet elapse ere the master
spirits in charge of the work will pronounce
all complete; and yet in its unfinished state
the experienced exhibitors of England,
France and Austria are constrained to pro
nounce ours a ma rvel of wonder when compar
ing it to the old world. About the middle of
June or the first of July the full perfection
of our effort will appear, when we would
advise all who can, by any possibility, to
visit Philadelphia and its world's fair, where
days and weeks and even months may be
profitably spent without more than half
exhausting the facilities for sight seeing.

an independence whose Centennial anniver

but for them. That destiny has called us
together, and while we are called upon to
mourn their loss, we can but strew their
graves with living flowers, in commemora
tion of the fact that their memory still lives
in a nation s glory. Let these facts fill
every throbbing breast with sympathetic
feelings, and fire every heart with the
warmth of patriotism ; and as the .'JOth of
Mar has been made a national holiday, we
earnestly request that all business places be
