EDWARD 8CULL, Editor and Proprietor.
WEDNESDAY.
....November 13, 1884.
We feel entirely confident tb
at
Mr. Blaine is elected. We beliere
this, because both the Republican
National Committee, and the Re
publican State Committee f New
York, say that he kas a majority of
the votes cast in the State of New
York, and they certainly have as
good facilities for gathering the cor
rect vote, as have any other set of
gentlemen in that State. We be
lieve it moreover because, while the
Chairman of the Republican Com
mittee simply announce the fact and
eays it will be verified by the official
count, the Chairmen of both the
Democratic Committees, accompany
their claime, that the vote has been
cast for Cleveland, with threats and
bluster never resorted to by men
who are confident of their position.
The wild claims and windy asser
tions of newspaper editors and cor
respondents do not count. Thty
are the mere ebulitions of partisans
whose wish is father to the thought
We repeat, we believe that the effi
cial count of the vote of New York
will show that Mr. Blaine is in the
majority, and is therefore l;ctcd
President. If the figures should
prove otherwise, no paper in the
country will more readily submit to
the inevitable, than will the Herald.
Does Mr. Chairman Hensel still
think that Pennsylvania is a doubt
ful State ?
Both Blaine and Cleveland think
they are elected, rnd all their friends
cry Ana en !
Stand by your guns boys ! but
don't thoot off your mouth until
Chairman Jones gives the order te
" let her rip."
Elaine demands a "fair and hon
est count" That is all the Repub
licans want, and they will see to it
that it is made.

The National debt was decreased
during October $3,307,192.71. The
total decrease 6ince the 1st of J uly
last is $32,890,373.24.
The official vote of Pennsylvania
has not yet been fully received. The
present indications are that the Re
publican majority will reach nearly
80,000. "
Read the President's Thanksgiv
ing proclamation, and be exceeding
ly glad that it's turkey and not crow
we will dine off. on that day of
thanks.
If the Independents of Connecti
cut, New Jersey and New York had
stood by Blaine and Logan, there
would now be no doubt of their
election.
Virginia, West Virginia and In
diana have gone for Cleveland by
decided majorities. The Republi
cans who counted on them were
elightly previous.
The magnificent Republican ma
jority in this State settles again, and
once for all, that her workingraen
understand the benefits derived
from a protective tariff.
The Republicans of Cambria
county elected one member of the
Legislature, and their candidate for
Cunty Treasurer, and with Blair's
assistance re-elect Boggs, Senator.
Bedford county gives Blaine and
Ixtgan a majority of 119,and the Re
publicans elect two members of the
Legislature, the Sheriff, Treasurer,
two Commissioners and two Audi
tors. Fayettk county shivered in the
wind, and notwithstanding the bit
terest effort of their lives was made
by the Democracy, the Republicans
captured one member of the Legisla
ture. Keep your tempers boys! Don't
cry over spilled milk. Hang up
yeur bruised arms for monuments.
Its hard to go hungry, but after a
fast of twenty four years you ought
to be uied to it
As the official returns from this
State keep piling up, we begin to
wonder if there really is any Demo
cratic purty in the Commonwealth
worth s(taking of. It would re.
quire an electric light, and a hand
bucket to discover and gather up
the fragments.
The result of the election hinges
on the State of New York, and the
result there depends upon fair
count of the voles cast It is simply
question of addition. Let the peo
ple posjees their souls ia patience,
.anJ await the ofiicial announcement
whkli will follow the count
Tie up the black of your jaw, and
you will be nighty glad yoo did ee,
when the official vote is announced,
and the result is certain. Don't
make a fool of yourtelf by prancing
Around and unliinbering your tongue
over a matter you don't know any
thing about, and can't decide.
The following was received on
Saturday evening last :
New York, Nov. 8. 1884.
John R. Scott,
Somerset, Pa.
Official returns will confirm our
claim to New York.
B. F. Jones.
Jcdgixo from the unofficial re
turns received up to this date, the
Democratic majority of seventy-six
in the last Congress will be reduced
more than one-half and probably
will not exceed twenty-six.
For the first time in many years
Westmoreland county goes Republi
can. Blaine and Logan have a ma
jority of 6. The Republicans gam a
Senator, three members of the Leg
islature and the entire county ticket
The Democratic papers appear te
be hankering after a row over the
election. If they persist in pushing
one upon the country, they will get
as all-fired a licking as they did ia
the last muss, tbey kicked up with
Uncle Sam.
The Democratic bluster about
Cleveland, being elected, accompan
ied by the threat that he shall be
inaugurated by force if necessary is
mere cowardly braggadocio, begot
ten of an intention to cheat and
leal if possible.
One Colonel Moss, a tvpical Ken
tucky bulldozer, telegraphs that
Cleveland is elected and that he has
1,000 armed men to 6ee that he is
inaugurated. Moss had better put
bis head to soak, or mix a little wa
ter with his whiskey.

Of course the solid south has
gone for Cleveland, but the majori
ties given in the Democratic papers
are mere cue??, made on the night
of the election. With their meagre
facilities for gathering news, the true
returns from most of these States
will not be in for a week yet

The New York Herald has been
laboring to incite the mob of that
city against Jay Gould, and on
Thursday night last a gang of roughs
went howling through the streets
"Hang Jay Gould". This so terrified
the man of money, that next morn
ing he telegraphed Cleveland, " con
ceding" his election and feeding
him " taffy." In his fright Mr. Gould
forgot, perhaps, that he doesn't own
the Presidency, and that therefore it
wasn't his to "concede."

Necessary to a choice, 201.
No bbtter evidence of the fact that,
Clevelands friends know he is beat
en, is needed than the following par
agraph from the Albany Argus,
owned by Daniel Manning, Chair
man of the Democratic State Com
mittee and the right hand man of
Mr. Cleveland.
The declaration ol the Canvassing
Board of a State makes the returns
of that State valid, also the only
certificate of its electoral vote which
is receivable. The Canvassing
Board of Democratic States will
let no fraudulent and false vote be
lyingly dechred the vote of that State
The true vote will be declared, certi
fied and sent forward. The Demo
cratic House of Representatives
will let none other than the true
vote be counted for Blaine. Medi
tators of fraud, it is just that these
facts be told betimes now. No fraud
ulent commi.-iion will put Blaine
in the White Houee. or keep Grover
Cleveland out of it. The men who
attempt it will be killed, and the
legal consequences of killing them
will be taken' care of afterward.
This kind of stuff from the Gover
nor's cfnial organ, does not pound
as if its writt r felt that his ticket
had been elected. People who fi-el
that they have been successful do
not resort to bullying and threats.
The braggadocio of the Argut will
scare no one. It simply shows that
it does not feel that Cleveland ha6
an honest majority of the votes of
New York, and therefore it "claims"
and threatens, a nd blusters.
It depend? wholly upon the vote
of New York whether Mr. Blaine or
Mr. Cleveland u io be the next Pres
ident of the United States. Unfor
tunately, the vote of that State is so
close that it will require the official
count to determine who has the
majority, but it ia a simple question
of adding up accurately long col
umns of figures, and this will have
to be done by the Canvassing Board,
before the result can be ascertained.
The candidate who has a majority
of the votes, if it be but a eincle
oue will be ntitled to ths electoral
vote of the State, will be elected, and
will take his seat If it be Mr.
Blaine, very welL IT it be Mr.
Cleveland it will also be very well.
The ieople will not stand by and
see any man cheated, and there is
not the slightest fear of any such re
suit
There is a Bet of miserable trick'
tiers in the country who are attempt
ing to incite an uprising of the baser
element of society, by proclaiming
in advance of the count, that Cleve
land is elected, and that he shall be
inaugurated, by force if necessary,
This is simply an attempt to bull
doze Republicans and in the end
will prove a wretched failure.
The men who talk thus are fools,
or cowards, er both. The blusterer
is the fellow whs invariably ruaa
away when the point of danger is
reached. The good citizen knows
that there is no necessity for hot
words or violent actions, and be
sheuld frown down ail attempts to
stir up strife.
The vote of the State ef New York,
like that of the State of Pennsylvan
ia, will be canvassed in a few days,
and the result announced, and the
people will see to it, that whatever
that result may be, it shall be re
spected and enforced. The talk
about contemplated frauds is mere
idle blather. The law shields the
ballot box in New York, as else
where.and under its protecting wing,
the vote will be counted, and the
successful candidate will in due
time be inaugurated President of
these United States. Keep cool,
await the result patiently, and feel
well assured that no man is going
to be cheated into the Presidency of
this great country.

Chicago, November 7. I believe
the Republicans have carried New
York and will not believe otherwise
unless the official returns show the
contrary," said General Logan this
morning. "All my advices," he con
tinued, go to prove this, and to
show that nothing but fraud can de
prive the American people of their
choice."
The General is very cheerful. He
has moved his quarters from the
Grand Pacific to Postmaster Pal
mer's residence on the South Side.
Mrs. Logan aluo appeared very con
fident that victory had settled on

Chairman Manning Denounced.
Augusta, Me., Nov. 7. The lat
est advices received here from ew
York are to the effect that the Re
publican committees, State and Na
tional, after a careful examination
of the whole ground, are satisfied
that the State haB gone for Blaine
and Logan. They say that a cor
rect count will show a small Repub
lican plurality, and that they have
taken steps to establish the fact.
Mr. Blaine's residence has been
crowded all day, many prominent
citizens from distant parts ot the
State arriving. The interest in the
result of New York is crowing deep
er every hour. This afternoon Mr.
Blaine talked freely about the situ
ation. He said, to a distinguished
citizen of Maine; "I feci entirely
confident that the honest vote of
New York, without change or ma
nipulation, will show a Republican
plurality of not less than 1500 votes.
I do not speak idly, but from the
most accurate data, carefully fur
nished me from the most compe
tent sources." Mr. Blaine added
that the dispatch of Daniel
Manning, published yesterday, con
tained the most arrogant and offen
sive threat to control the election
returns in the interest of the Demo
cratic ticket ever made in any nor
thern State, and equaled the worst
bulldozing proclamation ever issued
in the south. He thought its effect
would be to arouse the law-abiding
citizens of New York, who cannot
afford to have their State reduced to
the level of lawlessness prevailing
in South Carolina and Mississippi
The gentleman asked Mr. Blaine if
he felt any disappointment over tne
possible prospect of losing the Pres
icency by such means. Mr. Blaine
answered; "I do not feel so in any
personal sense, but nroloundly so
on account of the vast national in
terests depending on the result I feel
great pride that no intimation of
fraud has been uttered against the
members of the Republican party
in any state or d4?tnct. l do not
believe that the American people
will accept a fraudulent result. The
Republicans have carried the north
ern .states bv more than tJUU.mw
majoritvi and they do not propose
to have the leading State taken from
them by fraud.
All Bulldozing Snrpascd In Louisiana.
Washington, November C. In
reply to a telegram asking for infor-
imation respecting the election in
Louisiana, the following has been re
ceived in Washington :
New Orleans. November G. The
Democrats claim about GOO majority
against me. The returns from Iber
ia parish were held hack to increase
the vote asjainst me, if necessary.
They had two separate boxes, and
the counting out and stufiingin the
Congressional box were simply infa
mous. Bull-dozing was restored to
in both St. Marys and Iberia parishes
in the latter nearly all our colored
leaders were killed and our white
leaders impriso ned. Bribery, inti
midation, ballot-box stuffing and
murder equalled anything ever
before known in the history of this
State. The proof is open, palpable
and abundant. W. Pitt Kellogg.

deluge of bricks, completely burying
six men in the bottoiu of the suck.
They were not instantly killed, but

fine custom work, and can in no way be compared to the or
nary ready-made clothing found elsewhere. We want r ach
dividual opinion as to whether our line of Men's and Voir
Clothing is not the Largest and Best-Assorted ; as to wkell
our Styles are not the Most Desirable ; as to whether our Ce
ments are not the Most Perfect Fitting ; as to whether t
are qot the Best-Trimmed and Best-Made ones ; and list, b
not least, as to whether our prices are not the Lowest.
We will, however, emphasize the fact that our Line r
Overcoats is by a large majority the handsomest in the city.
Our furnishing goods department is replete with all' t;t
Litest Novelties of the season, consisting, as it does, of a F-r
