IIILC A!D THE DRED SCOTT
DECISION.
Ex-Governor Hill of New York has
resurrected the famous I) red Scott de
cision in a strained effort to show that
the United States Supreme Court under
President Buchanan's administration
gives its opinion against territorial ex
pansion. It is presumed that Mr. Hill
knows the whole purpose of the demo
cratic slave-holders' supreme court that
rendered the Dred Scot decision was in
the interest of human slavery. The
whole purpose was to rule that the ne
gro had no standing in the courts as a
citizen. That he had no standing ex
cept as a piece of property such as a'
mule or horse, and he could not sue or
be sued in the courts any more than a
mule or a horse can sue. His standing
was that of a property standing to be
dealt in and disposed of by the owners J
of such property. All questions but
the standing of the negro in the
courts of the country was literary
and learned filling for appearance sake
in the opinion. Stripped of all literary
embellishment and effort at display of
learning on tbe question of territorial
expansion and the government of ter
ritories acquired by treaty or by force
of arms the case stands thus:
Dred Scott was a slave in Missouri
and he was taken by his master an
army surgeon into tbe free state of Illi
nois and into the free territory of Min
nesota and thence back into Missouri.
Upon bis return he conceived the idea
of trying for his freedom in the courts. ;
He declared that by his long residence
in the free stale of Illinois and the free
territory of Minnesota be was entitled
to his freedom. For making .that dec
laration he was tied to a post and mer
cilessly whipped. He found a lawyer
who had the courage to bring a suit
against his master for assault and bat
tery. The case went up from one court
to another Into the Supreme Court of
the United States and when it was
handed down the decision was:
"Dred Scott ia a slave, not a citizen
of the United States and therefore can
not sue in the courts."
The decision was handed down a few
-days before the election of Mr. Buchan
an to the presidency, but it was not
made known to tbe general public till a
few days after Mr. Buchanan's inaug
uration. The whole purpose was to put
the negro on a property basis on the
records of the democratic Supreme
-Court just as horses and cattle and hogs
are considered and Bold at private sale
and at public sale to the highest and
"best bidder. By the Dred Scott decision
a negro bad not more standing in court
than a hog. The owner of a hog could
sue for the value of the hog if deprived
of the swine. The owner of the negro
-could sue for the value of the negro if
deprived of the negro. Such is the
point in the Dred Scott decision of the
democratic slave-holders United1 States
Supreme court of the time of President
Buchanan's administration, and when
Mr. Hill of New York tries to warp the
decision to some other purposs, he shows
that he either does not understand what
the decision was for or he distorts the
decision to a purpose best known to
himself. The Dred Scott decision went
down with Mr. Buchanan's adminis
tration and rebellion and is no more ap
plicable in these times than the fugitive
-slave laws under which the slave-holders
of tbe south came into the north to
catch and return to slavery such runa
ways that they might trace into the
Tree states. It is within tbe memory of
living men and women that the slave
master came into Mifflintown to catch
and return to slavery slaves that -had
come as far north as Mifflintown.
In a recent conversation on this point
with Captain Cornelius McClellan, he
said, " You remember Samuel Mc Wil
liams' when he kept hotel on the corner
where the Juniata National Bank is lo
cated. McWiiliams had a negro
.woman employed in the hotel in the
dining room.' One day she hastened to
the landlady and said excitedly,
'Missus, I'sguin to go, my old Vir
ginia Massa has come for me, I beard
bis voice in the bar room," She gather
ed ber bundle and fled from tbe place
by tbe back-yard and never, returned.
It wa true she bad beard the voice of
the slave master. He had traced ber
from Virginia, to Mifflintown and she
only escaped him by bearing him voice
before be caught sight of ber. The
Captain continued: "Do you remem
ber Bill Jones!" We said, "Yes.'
"Well," perhaps you remember BUI left
suddenly and fled to the West Branch
of the Susquehanna river somewhere
about Danville because his old master
from the south bad come for him."
How many other citizens ofMifBin town
can recall the advent of the southern
slave-bolder to catch men and women,
that the Dred Scott decision of the U. S.
Supreme Conrt declared to have no
standing in the courts and could have
no rights, but those extended to them by
their masters, such as are extended to
horses and cattle When Mr. Hill quotes
the Dred Scott decision be shows how
close he stands to the lost cause of rebel
lion and should be a lesson for every lov
er of the common rights and civil rights
of man to profit by, for it proves that If
milium and Bryanism get the control
of the government what may be ex
pected to take place. Everything will
be given a turn in the direction of the
old order, of affairs. When brought
home to the republican people and tbe
democratic people too, they should see
in it a pointer that their highest inter-
. est lies in the direction of casting their
I ballots for Mahon for Congress; McKee
for Senate and Beaver for Assembly,
for the candidates just named will vote
for anything and everything else than
a restoration of affairs that existed
when the Dred Scott decision was made.
If you vote for Keller for Senate and
for Hacksndorn for Assembly when
they get to Harrisburg they will vote
for a United States Senator who will be
band in glove with Hill and Bryan to
reorganize tbe present Supreme Court
and engage in other Revolutionary
measures through the forms of law
Vote the whole republican ticket.
Honorable J. N. Keller, the farmers'
friend voted for a double pointed back
action William Penn King George tax
lien bill when he was in the Legisla-
,ure to take from deaT farmer friends in
Juniata county over eighty-seven thou
sand dollars, principal and interest,
which would be enough money to give
every voter in Juniata county f 22 If dis
tributed to every" man alike. The lien
claims are several generations old and
are against innocent parties. Most of
the farms are clear of all William Penn
King George land liens. Those against
whom tbe bill was directed that Mr.
Keller voted for would in many
cases have been bankrupted by tbe act.
An effort was begun in the eastern part
of the state to collect tbe liens, but the
effort was attended with such a general
up-rising protest that the collection was
dropped, and when the next Legisla
ture met the act was repealed. Mr.
Keller was not in the Legislature that
repealed the outrageous act that he
helped to pass. If the Legislature fol
lowing tbe one In which Mr. Keller
voted had not repealed the tax lien bill
he voted for, he would be a witness to
the ripping up process on dear farmer
friends, who could not pay the claims
that he voted to fore close on them. It
was not Mr. Keller's fault if they were
not ripped to pieces financially. He
had voted for the obnoxious bill. Mr.
Keller was not in the next Legislature.
The next Legislature repealed the out
rageous bill be voted for. Bryanism Is
wrecking enough in its tendency, but
Kellerism as exemplified in the Will
iam Penn King George land claim lien
bill beats Bryanism 16 to 1.

Wd bin makla moonshine Whis
ky over In the big ravine far about
thtas weeks," said tbe old possum
boater of Tennessee, "when a thumpla
big bax cam down out of the thicket
one day and acted In a mighty cufua
way. It was to tbe summer, and he
was sheddla hie far, and, though I
bad my rise bandy, I didn't keer to
Shoot him. That b'ar smalt tbe whis
ky, and be sniffed and snuffed and
seemed to want a taste. I hollered at
him and driv him off two or tores
rimes, bat he kept cemin back. My
ole woman bad come over with my
supper, and arte watcbia the b'ar for
awhile she said; -
"Zeb, that b'ar wants a drink of
eo'a Juice soab'e ro'r bo'n. aad I'm for
glrln It to him.'
"I staaaed at the. Idea, but ae be
contlaoed to bang around the place
tbe eld woman poured about a pint of
the etna Into a pan and set It on a
atone SO tods away. She bad akasely
turned ber back berV the b'ar was
lapnln If up, aad be smacked bis lips
over tt Jeat like a man. Ia a leetle
while be walked off, and later on we
beard slch a row down around tbe
bend that we crept down to see what
It was. It was our b'ar and his mate.
That pint of whisky had made oar
b'ar feel mighty Jolly, and he was bv
slstln that tbs other b'ar dance aroond
and roll over with htm. Oue was drank
and Jolly aad tbe other sober and mad,
and the way they carried on wss as
good as a circus. Siext day both b'ars
showed up fur whisky and went oft as
Jolly as you please, and half an hour
later I walked right op to them as
they slept and snored. I wasn't fur
givia away any me' llcker. but the
ole woman thinks tt over aad says:
'Zeb. the fur of them b'ars won't be
wuth shucks .fur three maaths. but
what's the matter with sbettln tbe
varmints up In our outdoor-cellar far
the rest of the summer? I reckon we
ktn r"Mr to feed 'em, sad each- Okie
will fetch U as soon ae the fur Is
prime.'..
"I decided that tt was a good Idea,
aad we pat oat a ball quart of whisky
fur 'em. bat far some reason they had
left the nayburheod. The old wemaa
reckoned they'd got ashamed of them
selves and gone off to avoid temp
ta&hua. aad I kinder nggered that they
was off spreadla the news and lav I tin
ether b'ars to come along and sheer
a good thing. We'd about given up
seeln 'em agla when they showed up
1 was all alone at the still that day.
bat I had ropes at hand to tie 'em up la
ease our plan worked, and I poured
two full quarts of whisky Into the pan
and set It out la the old place. Them
b'ars bad bin roamla around and keep
In sober for so long that they was
dyla fur a spree, and they lapped up
every drop of that llcker and licked
their chops fur mo. They didn't sit
Jolly, as I looked fur. On tbe contrary,
they snarled aad growled and wanted
to pick a fuss with each othvr. Mebbe
a b'ar la like a maa about drlakia.
Let him git too much, aad he's agly
Instead of Jolly. I waited awhile aad
then folWred 'em. hopln to find 'eui
asleep, aad that's how I cum to see a
sight to make my ha'r stand up.
"Down around tbe bend In tbe ra
vine was a grassy spot, and what I
saw was them b'ars roll! a four mea
over tbe ground. It wasn't a mlalt
befo' 1 knowed who them mea was.
They was reveooo fellers who lied got
news of my still and se sneaktn op
the ratine to ketch me red banded,
yhe" b'ars bad met 'em and pitched
right la. I reckon the fellers was too
aarpriaed to fire a shot, though all had
pistols, and tbe way them b'ars did
slam 'em around was a caution. Two
of the fellers broke, sway as soon ss I
got thar, bat the other two was so had
ly clawed that arter the b'ars left 'em
they ooold ekasaly crawl, and I'm suab
they laid out In the woods all night. I
was much obleeged to tbe varmints, ae
ye may reckon, as they bed saved me
from a aorptlae. aad to my gratltood 1
mala to the ole woman:
" 'I ain't gwlae to play no tricks on
a varmint what baa saved me from
ruin, and 1 shan't try to captor 'em.
'Peed, but I'll furnish 'em with free
ao'n Juice and let 'em bev a good
time'
They was back next day fur their
drink, snd. rraiemberia how a quart
had made 'em ugly drank. I only sot
out a Dint. Tuer laDoed It up sad
looked fur mo, and when no mo' was
to'tlK-auiIn they glu us a surprise party.
Tour was to' uwn of us at tbe still
that day. and arter growlln around fur
awhile tlurm b'ars cum cbarglo down
upon us. We bad to scatter mighty
sudden, aad tbey kept as sway for an
hour. Thar was uo whisky to be got
at. and they lore down our shanty,
clawed our blankets Into stripe snd
went off growlln st each other. We
didn't see 'em agMo fur a month.
Then one day as 1 wss carryln a keg
of the stuff oo my shoulder along a
mountain path t ran full tilt Into the
two of 'em. I knowed 'cm In a mlalt,
and 1 Jest counted oo hevln a fuss with
'am. It was no one tryio to git away,
and 1 put down tbe keg and stood back
to glo 'em a chance at It. Bat tbey
didn't lake It. Tbey walked up and
sniffed about, and as sooo as they rec
ognized the smell they sorter shook
their beads sod walked off and gin me
a clear road. As I nggered It. lliein
b'ars had tried whisky and found that
It hrung uutuln hill . headaches sod
flghtln and bard knocks. They'd Jest
made op their minds that It was had
stuff and bed gone back on It. aad that
keg waa as temptashun. Tee, sun. they
walked off and let me pass on. and I
never shall hear the last of It from the
ole woman. I oever bev taken a nip
of eo'a juice since then that she wasn't
