In the course of tho election campaign
we often asecrjpd that. the,. Danville faction
w.cro jn, fa'vot; pfa division in, preference to
a "removal; and that Fruit was pledged by
his connection with them and the Berwick,
division men, to go for a division if a re
moval could not be prevented without.
This was as often denied by theiri,. ind we
were denounqcd as every tiling but honest,
foi making the. asdertion, -Although in
private, we had often heard them declare
this to be their determination as a last nrc-
veniBUo.j(0 removal', y0j wo were ,10t
prepared to havclncu. : Po1k -yoW and
threaten so soon after the election locfiect
it, unless i the removal question was dropl.
But it seems the late strong expression in
.'avor of a removal,. has rendered them des
peiale, through 'fear that tlc next legislature
will do justice' to tho county, and in their
tvrath they threaten tu assist the division
men in their unholy pioject, tha a few
speculators-in Danville may retain the frau
dulent location, of tlie courts. As evidence
iicar what the Danvile Intelligencer sas.
'If a division is afleclcd, we trust the peo
ple of Danville will be exempt from all
iihtue 'while they act on the defensive,
uguwut r,emoval. '
In what way' aretne, 'Ui ion tho de
that 4 insjo'rity of Cdlutnliia county are not
jri '"fav'oi ol a removal, wheii'Danie'l Snyder
(lie rerdoyalcsudidalo', Had three-fifths of
all tho votes polled? and that tod when the
dpposfng candidate was pledged against it.
Under these circumstances, can they even
hae a 'face to' oppose a removal, burdened
and seared as their faces and consciences ate
against submitting to the wishes of tho ma
jority f No, they know 'it will hi of no
uso to them, and their only remedy now is
to fight for a division, regardless of the in
jury that may accrue to the county regard
less of Its future welfare and prosperityih
fact, regardless of all other consequences,
provided (heir own immediate ends are grat
ified, by retaining the county seat at Dan
viile. They are willing to loose moro than
one third of our1 territory, and one third of
our population Nearly ' dbublo our taxes
fore'veri- and yet the county seat would be
rio'nea'rer the centre of tho remaining' coun
ty tha'n i't now is df the whole county.
Tliia-is the substatico of lh bove threat,
and that they viwatlerript to carry it into
effect,- n$ one who knows 'them will, for
one moment, doubt. They are now despe
rate, and will 'resort to desperate- means.
But who will favor the division? Will' the
people residing within th'b limits df the pro
pbsed new county! Let the voters ariswer
for who will deny but that' the vole between
Snyder and Fruit is a good data upon which
to 'decide. ''Within the' limits 'of the new
county, Snyder had 000 voice1,' while Fruit
had but' 218, being more than four id brie
agam'sf-'a' division. Will' the representa
tives from old Luzerne assist them, both
being: pledged? against) -il? vYVill -Senator
Headley tiow advocate it, such a strong
expression in tho limits of the new. countyj
as well as in the .whole: county, against it,
We feel confident he - will not. Ho must
and will carry-out the wishes of hisccuu
stituerits as exprossetl through tile ballot
boxes. Ho is noti.'lhe representative of
Berwick dnl Danville alore, but of Colum
bia county. ' Then who will efTeqUa divi
sion, if affected at all? Tho people of Dan
ville. Who will deserve the blame? .The
people 6f Danville; But says the' Intelli
gencer, "are we to blame or acting jn self
defence?" As well might tha tobber men
tion that he is right tn defending his ill,
gptten'-wealth, and is right in taking more
with it, that he may retain ; What Jie. lias

'were wo right .in -paying , that Fruit was

avow themselves in favor of a division, sup
portcu. nun. me ucrwick uiviston men
.6iippprlcd,him. and voted for him. Look
at it, and then answerj were we right.
The Algorine dr J, G. Montgomery fof
him, says that the Berwick division men
Voted for Daniel Snyder. Aifow did, his
true, Not on account of the division, how
ever. Il was discovered a few hours beforo
tho election that the Danville faction had
piomised to make a certain gentleman' co!
lector should Fruit bo elected. To prevent
thisi'd few votes were. given for Soy'dtlr.
This is the secret, the. whole secret, and
nothing lAil the. secret. How do -you like
it?- It was only change for change ;i'
"By the coursa of Daniel' Snyder, last
winter, he brought the, division bill upon the
verge of its passagenot by advocating it
himself but by persisting in advocating a
removal 'Which' the legislature would not
grant. J r-rMlgcritte.
