ULYSSES S. GRANT,
(Sabject to the approval of the Re
publican National Convention )
RSPtFBLICAN STATE TICKET.
FOR eCI'REME JUDGE :
HENRY GREEN,
Northampton County.
TOR ACDITOB GENERAL I
JOHN A. LEMON,
Dlair County.
Postmaster General Key is
spoken of as a possible candidate for
Vice President before the Chicago
convention.
Tue tide of foreign emigration to
this conatry is simply wonderful at
present. During the stormy month
of March when few ever venture U
encounter an ocean voyage, nearly
twenty -tiro thousand emigrants land
ed at New York and Baltimore.
William II. Yaxderbixt now
owns over fifty -one millions ot U. S.
4 per cent, registered bonds, and it is
understood that he will shortly make
further purchases of these bonds.
On those be now holds bis income is
over fire thousand dollars a day.
There has been a deal of boasting
that the Connecticut delegation to
Chicago was solidly fjr Blaine. To
this the lLirtford Couraat replies;
"It it becomes a question of Biaine
or Grant, the Connecticut delegation
will stand throe to one for the latter,
audin so doing it will represent the
Republican sentiment of the Slate."
It is stated from Washington that
Senator Edmunds is a firm friend of
Geueral Grant, and desires his nomi
nation, and that he will under no cir
cumstances allow his name to go be
fore tbe Chicago Convention as a
candidate lor the Presidency, and
wi.l in a short time write a letter
paying ho.
Some tender looted Republicans
ere feeling much aggrieved because
States that cannot give General
Grant their electoral rotes are send
ing delegates to Chicago to vote for
bis nomination. By the same species
of ratiocinatiot, townships in this
connty that cannot give Republican
majorities bave no right to vote for
candidates at our primary elections.
On Wednesday last Republican
State Conventions were held in Ken
tucky, Missouri and Iowa. In
structions were given in Kentucky
aod Missouri for Grant aud in Iowa
for Blaine. Grant therefore gets 24
delegates from Kentucky and SO from
Missouri, making 54, and Blaine got
22 in Iowa.
Ust'EB the party lash the Demo
crats bave pet through tbe House
the army appropriation bill with tbe
rider, prohibiting the President from
protecting the purity of tbe ballot
box and repressing intimidation at the
polls. This is simply nullifying tbe
national election laws intended to
prevent force, fraud and intimidation
at elections.
The Republican Convention of
Massachusetts has declared in favor
of Senator Edmunds for President
and sends an nainstrncted delegation
to Chicago. Mr. Edmonds if availa
ble would make an excellent Presi
dent, but be has no chance of a nom
ination, now tbe delegation will go
after complimenting him is troubling
the politicians One thing is certain,
Massachusetts is not for Blaine.
A mono tbe advertisements in this
issue of tbe Herald will be found
tbe "call" of tbe Blaine Club" of
Meyersdale for a Republican County
Meeting to be held in this place on
the evening of the 27th inst., for tbe
purpose of electing conferees to meet
like conferees from tbe other counties
in tbe district, to select delegates to
the Chicago Convention, JLc , &s.
That this "club" has tbe right to
call as many meetings as seemeth
good onto it, is undoubted, but when
it attempts to usurp tbe rights and
duties delegated bv tbe Republican
party of the county to its County
Committee, it is simply placing itself
in a position of revolt against the
party organisation, and taking feteps
to foment disorganization in its ranks.
At the last business meeting of the
party, it marked its coo G fence in tbe
integrity, ability and honesty of tbe
Chairman of tbe Connty Committee
by voting unanimously to continue
bim in office for another year, and
this attempt to usurp bis functions,
and call a meeting of the party for
business purposes, is an insult to Lim
and a stab at all party organization.
If the gentlemen comprising this
elab control the party organization
in the connty, we would like to know
when, where and by whom tbe power
was delegated to them ? It tbey in
tend to depose the regularly elected
chairman and tbe county committee,
the voters will want to know why
and wherefore. If they intend to
seize the power, they are simply
revolutionists. In any event tbey
are disorganizes, and their course is
calculated to bring untold mischief
upon the Republican party of Somer
set County. Better call a halt, gen
tlemen I and re earvey tbe field be
fore committing yourselves irrevo
cably. We gather from the Commercial
that this movement ia instigated by
di-aiisf&c:ion with the action cf tbe
Sute Convention, and it is patent
the object is, to send rival delegates 1
to Chicago to antagonize those select-1
ed a; Uarrisbarg. The movement editorial leader, headed "Genera!
H dabbed a "Reform within the ; (rnr," which reads tbos:
party," and under this glittering! At bis firs, election "he swept the
genera'itv, it id proposed to over-' country at large, by large mfg'orities,
throw its organization and read It'wd.oo the electoral
a ,r 1 k a .Jibe States except fceven. lie made
asunder. We bave beard of no ; catDpaigQ when tbe Re-
eocb geueral diMatict action through-!pUDi.C4a party WM lora by domestic
oat the county with the result of the dissensions ; Lis same was still so
State Convention as would justify potent a tpcil that the majority of
the measures proposed; but even if
6acb dissatisfaction does exist, this is
not the way to procure a panacea for
jit. 0:ber counties in the State that
(thought they bad cause for grievance
have moved ia the matter through
their regular county committee?, but
a movement oz mis staa ras do
semblance of authority, and dele
gales elected by such action would
have their claims laughed out of any
convention, being without credential
and without the rbadow of rightful
puacr.
Such a movement as ibis is simply
preposterous, ana il coumenMcea, i
and if countenanced, I
would justify every patty club in tbe
conntry in calling county conveu- j ward a inena, or to puumu an tac
tions, appointing delegates! declariog j my. His very contempt for the pro-
its Presidential preferences,
manding seats in the National Con
vention. For instance, one Repub
lican ia this town prefers Secretary
Sherman for President. Now, no
Sherman delegates were chosen at
tbe State Convention, and there
fore his voice was smothered.
Why thouldn't this gentleman
assemble himself together, call
a county meeting, appoint conferees,
select himself a delegate to Chicago,
write his own credentials, and de
mand a seat and a vote in tbe name
of tbe Republicans of this Congres
sional district?
If you throw party organization to
the dogs; it dissaiirfi .1 members ol
the party few or inunj call ineet
inps and select delegates according
to their own sweet will and pleasure,
if those placed in authority by the
party are ignored and overslaughed ;
if there are no recognized roles cr
power in the party controlling itB
action, then the sooner tbs Repub
lican party of tbe county is disband
ed the better. If on the other taad,
party organization is to be preserved,
if tbe party rules aod regulations are
to be observed, if party harmony and
unity are to be conserved, then the
movements and designs of this "club"
are essentially wrong and dangerous,
destructive of all organization, cf
unity and barmony, and can result
only in the overthrow cf Republican
supremacy in this county. That this
is intended we do not believe, but
that puch will be the mult, we are
perfectly satisfied. It is mnch easier
to raise the storm than to cjntrol the
wLirlwind.
Carry this embryo revolt to its sure
and natural fruition, and connt the
cost in tbe re-election cf General Cof
frotb in this Congressional district,
and the possible defeat of our mem
bers of the Legislature including the
probable loss of a Uuited States Sen
ator the coming session. Tbe lesson
taught tbe Republicans of this county
by the disorganization in 1 S7S should
surely not be forgotten so soon.
Since tbe above was written we
have received tbe Bedford Inquirer
containing tbe following article oa the
same subject
Tbe Inquirer advocates tbe nomi
ation of Senator Blaine, and its re
mark that "It is evident to every oue
"wbo understanding! views the
'situation that diseatiaSsd factions
"are seeking to erect themselves into
"power by the manipulation of tbe
"prevalent Blaine sentiment" is emi
cently true and to the point.
"Somerset Republicans bave issued
a call for a public meeting on the
27th inst., for tbe purpose of electing
three conferees to meet like c luferees
from Bedford, Blair and Cambria
counties to elect two delegates aud
tbeir alternates to represent the
Seventeenth Congressional district in
tbe National Republican Convection
to be held at Chicago oa the 2d day
of June. So tar this movement has
only developed itself in this cojgres
sioual district in Somerset cuomy,
aod it is profoundly to be hoped that
it will extend no farther. Coming as
it does from a county where a tac
tion fight similar to that now raging
lost us a congressman two years ago.
any such movement must bo viewed
with suspicion. While preferring
Mr. Blaine as a presidential candi
date before any now in tbe Be Id, we
cannot but feel diatruetful ot tbe uses
to which it is sought to put his person
al popularity. It is evident to every
one who understanding! views tbe
situation that dissatisfied factions are
seeking to erect themselves iuto po er
by tbe manipulation ot the prevalent
Blaiae sentiment. Well may Mr.
Blaine cry "Save me from my
friends!" However, leaving this
view ot tbe case out of tbe question,
our voice would be against aay such
movement in this district inaugurated
as is this one. In other district
where tLe movement has acqus ed
consistency aod headway, it has pro
gressed under tbe auspices of regu
larly constituted authority ; county
committees bave been called together
and in response to tbeir calls conven
lions bave assembled which bave
given voice to tbe protests of the peo
ple, and in a regular manner have
elected National delegates, gutb
delegates will go to Chicago with
substantial claims for recognition.
Will any one deny that a delegation
from this district; chosen in accord
ance with the Somerset plan, will be
Logbed out of the hall? what cre
dentials conld such a delegation bear
which would demand for tbem tbe
respect cf a regularly constituted
body ? Such a course of procedure,
as ran easily be seen, being useless
so far as securing true representation
at Chicago, would be productive only
of dissensions at home which would
endanger our success in the district
and in the county. If there is any
protest to be made, then, ia the name
of the Republican party, let it have
upon it tbe stamp cf regularity.
Otherwise nothing but barm would
result and confusion would be worse
confounded.
The New York Tribune is one cf
the mott bitter opponents of General
Grant. It can see nothing good in
bim bow, and remembers nothing
good in bis administration. If its
readers will tarn back only to the
3d of March, 1 37, they m ill find an j
tour rears 820 was more tuau u-ouu-
led. General Grant saved tne Lnion
.
in battle, aud gave hepe and strength
to tne nation in the darkest boar of
its bi.-tory. Even Lis errors were,
after all. evil tendencies more fre
qnently than positive wrongs.
Now. oar memories rest rather op
on the snbeiauiinl achievements of
tbe fineoces, tbe reduction of the
deb: aod taxes, the slow yet steady
improvement iu the condition of tbe
South, aod, eti fe.-t of all the mag
niheent success of a foreign policy
which will hereafter bs tbe admira
tion of the world. His poliey in gov
ernment has beeu as open aud direct
as bis strategy in the wilderness.
Ue has never baselv
schemed to
uh a poliiical aim. or to get
jaa adversary out 0f tne way, or re-
timed carriea bim safe through dan
gerous undertakings. He assumed
the govtrutnent when reconstruction
was a crude experiment, aud tbe
great danger to be dreaded was, not
tho invasion of the white man's
right., but tbe theft of the black
man's liberty It was certainly a
mercifal Providence for the freedmen
that be found at this critical time a
Piceidcnt disposed to take a liberal
view of the power and tbe duty of
the executive in extending over bim
the protecting shield of tbe Union
Time mey perhaps show that it was
best for tbe whole nation, likewise,
that the strong hand of central au
thority should put down the murder
ous spirit before it became unmanage
able. His errors will quickly fade
from recollection, and the essential
integrity aad trothfuluess of General
Grani'schararter will be fully recog
nized. When we remember that this was
written three years and one month
ao, w hen all the facts of General
Gram's admitistration were fully
knon to the editor of th Tribune,
it is difficult to see any honosty in its
preseut vicious cjurse. The Tu&unc
says "it was best for tbe whole na
tion that the strong hand should put
down tbe murderous spirit." Wnat
new light has come to it now ?

A thorough examination ct tbe
house and premises revealed tbe fact
that Rbinsou's ab 'de must bave
beeu a kiud of headquarters at which
to deposit tbeir booty, or else that be
was the captaia of ibe gang, and
what was found was bis share cf the
plunder horse Collars, doubletrees.

crockery and glassware, silk aud
oiber d.ess goods already made up,
shawls, scarfs, bedding and sheets,
lap robes, afgbaus, blankets; in fact
every imagiuable thing tor the use
of man, woman or beast.
Wbuu this evidence was unearthed
before the wealthy prisoner, ie made
au attempt to escape to his retreat in
the uiwuntaius, but was Captured,
aud tiadiug be bad no chance to e

tbe sum of $1,000. Davis was ar

It is believed bv some here that be

l'lm With a Bull.
New York, April 1G A colored
mau, ia tne employ of Mr. Geerge
Hubscbmidt, in Bergen couuty N. J.,
went out into a field to drive a bull
in tbe birn yard. Tbe bull was
rather viciou.?, but it bad never at
tacked tbe man. Tbis, time, how
ever, ibe animal made a pluuge f ir
the colored man, knocked bim to ibe
ground, held bim ibere with his fore
feet, aod attempted to gore bim with
bis sharp horns. Tbe negro strug
gled and f ugbt as best be could,
and succeeded in dodgiug tbe blows
several times. Rut finally the born
peuetra'ed ibe cheek atom an iucb
from the mouth. The bru e tbep gave
a savage lunge and tore tbe flesh
around the negro's chin, from a poiut
about two iucbes from ibe left end of
his mouth clear ar- uud to the right
ear. This made a terrible wouud,
and the great arteries in tbe neck
were narrowly missed. In spite of
the wouud the man continued to fight
for bis life. He succeeded ia reica
ing a stone, with which be hammered
tbe bull iu the eye until tbe animal,
which was all this time holding its
victim pinioned to the ground, was
forced to let go.
Tbe bull then ran to the opposite
side of the fiefd, tossing his bead and
roaring witb pain, tbe eye being al
most entirely destroyed.
The man got up, staggered to tbe
fence, without further molestation
from tbe bull Two men. who came
to bis assistance, lifted hitu over tti.
fence, and tbea he sank sensless Dr
Yan Geison dressed the wound, aud
heihiuk the negro will recover, al
though be says it was one of tbe
narrowest escapes be ever siw, as
tbe man's wiudpipe was grazed by
tbe bull' sharp horns.
A Haaaaebaaetla Horror.
Boston, April 13 Mrs. John
Driscoll, of Maiden, was arrested on
the charge of murdering the four
year old diobter of Jobu Cred in, a
ueighb ir. The .body of the child
was foUi.d yesterday moruiog near
tbe railroad, and it is kvlieved it was
placed there by ibe Driseolls after
ibe child bad been killed at tbeir
bou-e
Tbe hood of tbe girl was found in
tbe cellar of a bouse occupied by Mrs
Driscoll, together witb ao ax, the
olade aud handle of wbicb were
stained with blood. A barrel smear
ed on the side witb blood and con
tained several bloody bags, similar to
the oue found near the body of tbe
child were alsi discovered in the cel
lar. Tbe theory of the police is that,
tne child was kiiled in the cellar, ium
body put iuto a barrel to c ucal it
then put ncder tbe staira wbere the
hood was found, aud afterward, car
ried a ay in a, Lai aad, deposited
where discovered, in a position to
give tbe impression that death bau
been caused by tbe traiu. Mrs
Dn-coll asserts ber ignorauce as to

Outside of tbe work are nix houses,
