It was fitting that, as they have

Foit once Col. Wattcrson lias proven
a true prophet. It will lie reiuemln-rcd
that he warned the Chicago Conven

adopting the platform it did, it would
"march through a slaughter house to

luring the late session of Congress, wax
a veritahle Democratic slaughterhouse
for ltrty leaders is known of all men,
and tlK ojien grave is yawning for the

The election in Vermont, last week,
tells the tale of dissatUfaction with the
jtoliey of the Democratic party: The
JU-puhlicaii majority rolled up was not
liiieftitcctcd and point the way to the
vrtain overthrow of the discordant
nd wrangling jttirty now- controlling
the government.
Vermont is the first state to fcjieak
and there is no uncertainty in her
tones. She is a rvliahlc Republican
4U, Uit w hen in the ft year of
he increases her majority hy 70 KJ over
the party majority of the Presidential
year of 1st rj it means something wor
thy of note. The returns indicate a
larger majority than was ever ln-fore

in the history of the State. 1 he entire

The Uenublican conferees from this
Coiigressitinal tlistriet met at Alloona,
on Thursday evening last, and iinani
niouslv nominated Hon. J. D. Hicks.
The course of Mr. Hicks during the
past session of Congress lias met the
exneetations of the Republicans of this
district, and he was virtually conceded
are-nomination, liedford county alone
having a candidate at her primarj"
election against Iiim.
The re-election of Mr. Hicks is a
foregone conclusion. The only room
for speculation is as to the size of his
majority, which, under existing condi

"Have you heard the news from
Maine? Ootid news and true!" This
refrain of the old cam wig", song of
1S40 is as appropriate and applitxible
now as then. The uncomplete returns
of the election in that State, held on
Monday last, show the tremendous ma
jority of 37,0110 for Cleaves, the lteput
lican candidate for Governor, being the
largest majority ever given in the
State. The Republicans have carried
every county in the State and have
elected 127 of the lol members of the
House of Representatives. All four of
the Republican Congressmen are re
elected by immensely increased majori
ties. Well done, Maine !
Thk xlitieal campaign in Pennsyl
vania was formally oH'lied on Wednes
day last by our candidate for Governor
G-Micral Hastings in a strong and
well-coilsideretl sjicech delivered liefore
the Convention of Republican cluls in
s.-s-ion at Harrisburg. Tlie issues in
the coming (contest are so clearly defin
ed and so w ell understood that nothing
startling or new ejus Ik- uttered regard

overshadowing issue U the tiiriff, and
the changed condition of the eountry
and the jtrostratitmof business of every
kind sintx- ls!t2 wsLs'foreilily and strong
ly put; and the closed industrial cstalc
lisiinients, the reduction of wages and
the lack of employment were called
upon to attest the ruin and want and
desolated homes that have followed
Democratic success, and the attempt
of this Democratic Xational Adminis
tration to force its revenue policy into
oeration.
We have room in this issue of the
Hkhalh for only the followlngextraets
from this admirable sjieech, which we
commend to the erusal an soU-r
thought of our many readers:
" The Ktile rarely determine more
than one issue at any given time, a
the overshadowing question now befi
mid
re
us is that of American prouviion.
"Nothing has transpired since tl
defeat of ls)2 that oinrlit to chanire

licans wiio then votetl lor a change j
lKiir to lti readv to help bring about
another change, and the signs of the
times indicate tluitthejeople generally
are in favor of a return to Republican
supremacy.
44 During the past two years we have
followed our banners in (tcteat as loyal
ly as when they led the way to victory,
and it is a matter of pride and abiding
satisfaction th;- iu thecampaign In-fore

"The people are anxious to vote.
They are desirous of recording their
judiineiit and entering their protest
igaiust existing cohtiiiions. 1 11 rciru-
ary last the oiiHrtuni!y was presented,
and the Kijle of IVnnsylvaiiia by an
unarall-iett majtuity notified the
ctHiutry that they weiv not satisfied
with the ruling conditions at Washing
ton. Time hus only intensified the de
sire to cuter auotlu-r and a more em
phatic protest.
" Pennsylvania, with her great iki-
ulatioii, her growing cities, her diversi
ty of industries, her native wealth, her
intellectual advancement and unfalter
ing patriotism, has never, when duty
required, laiiea 10 oiaze me way iorine
other states to follow. In this crisis
Pennsylvania will le looked to to lead
the way.
44 Nature has blessed no other state
with such wealth and Ixiundicss re
source. Tiie founders of our country
made her the Keystone of hp federal
arch, ami her native wealth, uuitet
w ith the industry, thrift an. I intelli
gence of her eople, have made her
tijually the KeystoiK-of AmerieiHl pro

workmen and prosperous employers,
is a monument erected to the protec

She stands by virtue of her imperial
position, at the head of the column of
protective states. She has long set the
standard for the nation, and every
principle (f W'lf-prescrvatioii and pa
triotism should be incentives to hold
her advanced Ksitiou iij tlu coining
struggle.
44 If it shall be aax-rted that national
issues have no place in the state cam
paign, we reply that there is no citizen,
no business, no interest, no occupation
in the Commonwealth that in not con
cerned in these questions, and there is
no state in all the union ho vitally in
terested as Pennsylvania.
44 The well-intentioned citizen who
has not yet decided how to vote at the
coming election may well consider his
ground. I hon' he will inquire of him
self how he likes the conditions since
the Republican party has gone out of
power? How has it Uvn with him in
dividually? Has he had steady em
ployment ? Is he paid the old Repub
lican wage rate? Dn-s he find the cost
of living cheaper, and the ability to
meet thai coat U-ttt-r? Is his business
prosjerous? Is he as contented and
confident of the future as In-fore?
When he htwansweretj to himself these
vital questions let him, on his way to
the tolls, pa, the silent mill, Out Void
furnace, the broken batik, the dcs-rnl
forge; let him pas by imverty and
want, iHisiness paralyrxti and 'confi
dence vanished, and then record his
judgment of the responsibility for these
conditions and his hon-for the future
ill the ballot which he placed iu the
I nix.
"The student of our times has been
urged to ln-lieve that the resjninsibility
for the present cond U ion of the country
should not ln laid at the door of the
party now in power. He is advised
tilat these depressions ill business, by

almost every industry

intralvsis, aud confidence, in utmost
every avenue of trade and commerce,
stood stiil the moment the returns re

44 In the face of these conditions its
opKincnts declared 44 Republican pro
tection to U' a fraud ami a roblnry;"
that it was "unconstitutional;" that it
was "the culminating atrocity of class
legislation."
14 1 (tire not what epithets may be ap
plied, you know and I know that after
thirty years of protection, up to the nd
vent'of the present administration, this
country was never more happy and
prosperous. Cnder proteetitin we tnk

41 The facts are plain and the record
marvelous. After fifteen years of tariff
for revenue, President Lincoln fount!
not a dollar in the treasury and the na
tional credit pine. After selling the
1 Kinds of the government at 11 per
cent. In-low par, Ruchanan's secretary
of the treasury, when he found the
bidders exhausted but the lniu-ls not
sold, advised Congress to ask for an in
dorscr, ami suggested that if the states
would go security for the nation the
auction might continue and more Immls
le sold. This was the condition when
Lincoln, the Republican jwrty, the civ
il war and a new protective ta rill" law
began to make history. Lincoln lived
oniy 10 see the successful issue of arms.
Those who came after hlui struggled
with a war debt of nppalling pniior
tion and sought to reconstruct a land
depleted of men and money, laid deso
late by carnage. A third of a century
later the marks of strife l!mll the Imt
tlcliclds were no more nearly effaced
than the war debt, and to-day the story
cf Imth is told in enduring monuments
and tl;e nation's n-iision roll. Where
dm-s history record a parallel for such
a struggle and such a glorious issue?
44 And through these years imputa

0n Grain of Comfort.
Among other good things said by ex
Speaker Recti in an address delivered
Thursday, at Augusta, Me., were these:
" There is no chance for m-h-o and piiet
except thnnigh the advent of the llepiils
liean party in the next House. Now you
ami I have little idea hat SI,i,imil really
is, but I will try t id show t he Ioms we
hav e suffered from D -miM-ralic misrule in
another way. Iu the Stanford mills there
are "no men. There were $117,u.l lcs
paid there in wages hist year than the
year ln-fore or every man and woman lost
SliiK. Multiply that by Hl,mn and you
would wipe out a value etpud to that of
Maine. Here's another example: On the
Pennsylvania lines east of Pittsburg tho
earnings in the last six months were
7,uo!l,iiu less than the year ln-fore and
the running expenses were cut down
tv.oi:i,oi(). That melius so much less for
bsiiiuotives, ties, railroad hands, aud
lueans discharged inechanii's deprived of
work. Multiply that by 2and you have
another State of Maine gone. There is
no language I can use tli.it can show this
loss caused by Ik-mocratic rule. There is
one grain of comfort. Although it is true
we'have lost happiness, comfort and the
gijvance of civilization basin-en retarded,
we will have In-tter Democrats. liefore
they were organised with jealousy of us.
They jibed, jeered ami were unkind.
That's all going to lie changed. They
have tried their hands for a year and a
half. Whenever in tlie next .'Hi years of
our rule ty's coming we fall short they
will not jeer buf speak sympathetically
and say our errors are not equal to their
errors. I think this campaign will settle
the question of protection as our jxilicy
and thin country settle down to a reason
able proi lion."

Congressman Meyer, oft ha First Louisi

saying of the revolt against Deuim-nu-y
'of the sugar planters of his State: "It
may mean that a lb-publican delegation
will ba sent to the next Congress from
IxMiisiana and that Republican presiden
tial electors may lie chosen two years
from now. The Democratic Congress has
dealt shamefully with the great interests
tif Ijouisiana, after rcicatcdly promising
to sustain it. The party has received
strong and consistent support from the
State for many years, and the first time
it secured complete control of the govern
ment proceeds to inflict upon Louisiana
the lnrdest blow she was ever given by
h-gislation. We have not only In-en dealt
unfairly with, lmt have Ix-en deceived ; in
a word, buiirtietL We were promised in
the presidential campaign that the sugar
industry sliould not 1 crippled. Then
when the Tariff bill was to le amended
in the Senate there r.i definite promise
to tmr senators that the Uiunty should lie
continued for this year. The crops of this
year were started on that understanding,
investments have been made on that
luiis ; yet the party to which the State has
given its undivided support enacts a bill
that will drive many of its prosperous
business men to liankriiptey."

Horror ef Sarial Alive.
Wkst Chester, Pa., Sept. 7. A strange
precaution was taken by Richard P.llicolt
to provide means with which to announce
his exiOfted return to life. Failing to
arouse from ileal h alter three weeks, his
Itndy was to vtay laid in the grave.
KUiiMtt was considered a wealthy cili
ceu of this place. He uu Herod from
dropsy and died on August 17. He had
always entertained the horror that he
might In? buried alive. A few days Is-foro
his death he tM his friends of his fear
aud requested them to carry out ;he plans
which he then made known. His body
was placed in a casket, inside of which
was bn-atcd an electric, button. The but
ton was p!atil near where his right hand
lay.
A wire was attached to this button and
it connected with an electric liell placed
in the sexton's house. Kllieott said his
body should lie in the cemetery vault for
three weeks. If he came to life during
this period, he would touch the button
and ring up the sexton, near at hand.
He could then have lieen speedily remov
ed from the eollin. He slid if he had not
(ime out of tha eternal sleep in three
weeks his remains should be removed
from the vault and consigned to the grave.
The three weeks since Kllicott's ileal h
expired to-day. There had lie?n no signs
of returning life. The electric I12II in the
