Our Senatorial Candidate.
In the first number of The AUeghanian,
we published the proceedings of the Con
ference at whose hands Lewis W. Hall,
Esq., of Blair County, received the nomi
nation as the candidate of the People's
Party of this Senatorial District. In an
article upon the subject, we informed our
readers, that we thought it prudent, for
reasons therein given, to defer the con
sideration of the claims and prospects of
the nominee for a subsequent number of
out Paper. It is well perhaps that we
have exercised this prudence. We are
now the better enabled to mete out justice,
not only to Mr. Hall and the Cambria
County Conferees, but to ourselves.
Hitherto the name of Mr. Hall has not
been at our mast-head. To-day it is there
and there it shall remain until the sec
ond Tuesday of October shall tell us of
his success or of his defeat. In adopting
this course, we yield for a time a right,
though we do not feel that we are sacri
ficing a solitary principle. If any of our
readers imagine that we have been slow
to take such action, we submit to them
in brief the following as the grounds of
our delay.
We have from the first considered that
the action of that conference was unfair
towards the Fcople of Cambria County.
We f top not here to inquire into details.
We care not now to recount the many
wrongs that have been done to farther
that rcsu-lt fimbria County was entitled
to the nomination. Such has been and
still is our opinion, and no argument,
however plausible or by whomsoever pre
sented, is likely to change it. When,
therefore, we learned that the Conferees
who represented this county, had with
held their approval from the resolution
b make Mr. Hail's nomination unani
mous, we felt that we too had a right to
withhold our approval from the nomina-'
tion. Conferees are generally supposed
to speak for the county they represent,
and when their action is right, should be
sustained.
Moreover, about the time this nomina
tion was made, we were informed that the
nominee had been particcps erfminis in the
dastardly plot which, three years ago, as
sisted in the defeat of A. C. Mullin. This
charge -once made out to our satisfaction,
we say it broadly and boldly, Mr. Hall
could not have received our support under
any circumstances. We determined, there
fore, no to commit ourselves to him or
kia . .11 X.? .11. r
vausc, uutii iiia guiib ur innocence in
the premises complained of should be
fully established.
These, then are the grounds upon which
we have withheld our support from the
nomination. The first ground we now
waive for the present; the last, we are
happy to state, is not well founded. We
are assured 'y Mr. Hall, as well as by
others who ought to know, that he not
only voted for the Union Senatorial Can
didate in 1S5G, But that he labored faith
fully for his election. And now, to pre
serve intact the organization of the Peo
ple's Party of Cambria county lor the
success of our local ticket to save this
Senatorial District from Loco-Foco mis
representation and in the hope that, in
future Conferences, the People of our
Mountain County will be more fairly
dealt with we join hands with our Cam
bria Conferees in ratifying Mr. Hall's
nomination and in laboring for his elec
tion.
This step may please some ; it may dis
please others. e have carefully consid
ered it in all its bearings, and now take
it with, all its responsibilities.
A Mistake Corrected.
That bright luminary in the political
firmament, known as the Tyrone Star, last
week shed one of its beams in this direc
tion ; but whether it was intended as a
beam of light or a beam in the eye, is
somewhat difficult to determine. Look at
it:
"A. M. White, of Cambria county, was nom-
maieu ior me otate senate, six years ago ;
John Cresswell, the Democratic candidate, was
elected, and the result is attributable to the
defection of Cambria county. Three vears afro
--.. j. aiuinu, oi Lamuria county, was the
candidate; Cambria county defeated him, and
re-elected John Cresswell.
Blair county did not defeat either White orMul-
nn. uiair county was kinder to Cambria's own
sons man sue was Herself."
Now it is quite true, that six years ago
A. M. Y hite was nominated for the Sen
ate ; and it is equally true that he was de
feated. But it is not quite so clear that
the result was wholly attributable to this
county, as the Star would seem to insinu
ate. Did not Blair county take a part in
that memorable contest ? If our recollec
tion serves us, Blair furnished a "Tem
perance candidate" a most excellent man
by the way, and one who took many more
votes from White than from Cresswell.
We may be wrong in this impression, but
it so, the Star will set us right.
But we are told that Cambria defeated
Mullin, and that Blair did not Now,
Mullin's defeat was a matter with the en
tire district, and not with any particular
county. It would have required him to
run several hundred votes ahead of the
State Ticket to have secured his election
at that time. But, while Blair countv
did not defeat Mullin, it is quite evident
that she did not do her duty tcwards elec
ting him. The following exhibits the
votes of Blair and Cambria counties, in
looo, for the Union candidates on the
State, Congressional and Senatorial tick
ets :
rti.: r v.
Canal Com. Thomas E. Cochran, 2626. 1556
Auditor Gen. Darwin Phelps, 2612 1538
nitrreyor Uen. a. Laporte, 2595 1536
Vongret J. R. Edie, 2620 1474
Average vote,
2613 1526
Senate A. C. Mullin, 2506 1 544
Thus it will be seen, that, on an aver
age, Mullin ran 18 votes ahead of the
State and Congressional Tickets in Cam
bria county, whilst in Blair county he ran
lv( votes behind! Does this look as
though "Blair county was kinder to Cam
bria's own sons than she was herself!"
We pause for a reply.
Our Conferees.
We stated in the first number of the
Attrgliaman, that two of the Conferees r.f
the People's Party c Cambria County
nau taken neither lot nor part in the reso
lution making the nomination of Col. L.
W. Hall unanimous. This statement was
entirely correct. Mr. Williams we are in

A Word or Advice.
The Blair County liig and the Cam
bria Tribune, two of the Opposition iour
nals in this Senatorial District, in their
zeal to subserve the interests of Col. Hall,
have, we regret to say, opened out upon
Augustin Durbm, the Loco-Foco candi
date, in a very coarse and indelicate man
ner. . -
W ltness the following gem from the
Whig :
"The Locofoco Buchanan and ftio-lpr rni;
date for Senator is engaged in the Whiskey
business at Munster, but they say he "can't
.eep a noiei. eu, ii ne can't do that, can
1. . L i r .i . - . . .
ut: inane laws ior me people t i nis is a se
rious question and should arouse the sober
minded people to look at it with that consid
eration which justly belongs to it. Let the
watchword be 'Can't Keep a Hotel.' "
And the following titbit from the Tri
bune :
"As well might the gentlemen who compo
sed that Conference have nominated one of
their old boots for the responsible and honor
able position of State Senator, as the ignorant
ana uoorisn individual they did. Mr. Durbin
may be a useful man in a small way in the lo
cality in which he resides, but that he posses
ses any, even the slightest, qualifications for
the position of a law-maker for t.hia !-..
Commonwealth, is a supposition most ridicu
lous auu aosuru. Nobody no honest and
right-thinking Democrat believa tht J.;0
man Durbin is fitted, either by nature or edu-
cunun, ior any omce in the gitt of the people
higher than that of township constable or su
pervisor. Now, these articles besides being very
ridiculous in themselves, are untrue. Mr.
Durbin is not engaged in the Whiskey
business at Munster, as the Whig asserts,
nor is he the ignorant and boorish indi
vidual the Tribune would make him ap
pear. It is true his qualifications for a
Senator are not so good as those of his
opponent; nevertheless, if elected, we
doubt not he would serve his constituents
well and faithfully at least as well as a
Loco-Foco could do. We have certainly
no desire to exercise the office of a censor
over the editors of the Whth and Tribune.
but we do feel ourselves impelled to give
them some advice. And it is this : If
you really desire the success of Col. Hall.
publish no more articles about his oppo
nent such as you are now guilty of. Do
not oppose Durbin so much on the ground
that he is not qualified, as you do on the
ground that Mr. Hall is better qualified.
Oppose Durbin as a Loco-Foco. Support
Hall as the People's candidate.

1.. W. Hall, Esq.
Col. L. W. Hall, the People's candi
date for Senator, has spent several days
during the present week with the citizens
of Ebensburg and vicinity. He has for
med the acquaintance of quite a number
of persons from all parts of the county,
who have been in attendance at our courts.
and we doubt not, that acquaintance will
tell strongly in his favor at the coming
election.
