The Republican Convention of the 25th District of Pennsylvania, which met a; Harmony, Butler connty, on the 23d day of September, unauimonsly nominated Thomas W. Phillips of Lawrence county, a s the Republican candidate for Congrc in this District. He is the only regularly , and honestly nominated Republican can didate for Congress in the field, and to bis support we earnestly invite all good citizens. We are on the eve of one of the mos' important Congressional elections eve held in Pennsylvania; one in which much more than the usnal inter<-»t- are involved, one which is attracting the attention of every thoughtful citizen of the Common wealth a* involving decisions which are vita); one in which will be declared to the people of the State the deliberate judg ment of the honest and intelligent voters of this district upon the worth of the great safeguard of our political institutions honest elections and a pure ballot box. It is to be declared at this election whether we mean, as Republicans, v. I at we have always loudly professed, that at the very foundation of our political taitb, honeßl and fair elections must have the most sacred place. The Issue presented to the voters of this district in the coining Congre-«ionsl elec tion ia one of the gravest charaeter. It is nothing more or less thau wbetiier honesty in our nominations shall be approved and endorsed, or dishonesty condoned and re warded. The time ha# long since panned when the question vu an open one for discission — whether an alleged Republican nomination for Congress at New Castle a few months a h* wan a fair and honest oue. Tho lips of tie defender* of that nomination should be sealed by the sworn confession and openly published admissions of the bribed dele gates in that cony en lion, who, against their personal interests, testified that they had been bribed to vote for that nomina tion, which could not Bavo heen mode on tho nominating ballot without their rotes. Theso confessions and admissions have been under the public eye for month-- with out successful contradiction, and they have passed under the careful examination and revision of tbo highest judicial tribunal of t his district, leading to the deliberate de cision of that tribunal, after patient hear ing, that these bribed delegates should be held to answer therefor at the next session of the Court of Quarter Sessions of Law rence county. When brought to the bar Of justice it is expected these bribed delegates will, as criminals usually do, plead "not" guilty." Their advisers greatly underesti mate the intelligence of the honest and in corruptible voters of the 25th district if they suppose that the publication of this plea of "not guilty" in tho newspapers be fore they are placed on the docket for trial will weigh a particle in mitigation of their guilt. Criminals are not tried in Pennsyl vania in this way. Whilst the "not guilty," a* a newspaper plea before election, will a\ ail nothing tie fore a court of justice for the acquittal of the accused more than other new. paper assertions, the exhausting of the whole vo cabulary of Billingsgate and abuse upon the defenders of an honest and pure ballot box in this district will weigh as little. It is a matter of regret that gentlemen whom we have been accustomed to regard a.shon orable in all the relations of life, through misguided zeal and uncurbed temper " should fcavc been betrayed into a .public defense of a great wrong iu language so discreditable as to recoil with power on those who publish and eirculat e it. The honest voter who survey :t the whole field cannot but recognize tho met that there is now before the people but ono reg slarly, honestly and fairly nominated Ro publicau candidate forCongrc-s in this dis trict, and as sueb, that candidate, Thomas W. Phillips of Lawrence county, has a right to expect the support of the Repub lican* of this district, and we would invoke the aid of all good c itirens without regard to party to aid in his election. Our can didate u eminently worthy of the office for which be has been named. Mr Phillips is a man of high moral and Christian thara" ter, of brains and culture, »u i of wide business experience; tbo friend and helper of the toiler and the belpb ss, an earnest, thoughtful student of all the prresr question" of tLo day, one of the foremost represen tative men of the great industries of oar district, Industries which imperatively de mand representation on the Honrs of Cou grem. Wc hail the auspicious sign, of u« times as clearly indicating tho triumphant elec tion ol Mr. Phillips, a result in which we would hi glad to have every honest voter of the district have a share, making the ▼ictory so complete that bribery and cor ruption would never again be heard of in tho nominations and olcetions of this district. Yote the Whole County Ticket. Voters of Butler County Consider carefully the importance of the vote yon will cast for Congress next Tues day. Butler connty ha- great intere.-ts .it stako in this election. Within a few year.- the oil development in this county ha marvellously increased the wealth of t'le county. This development is increasin its domain and promises to include our territory a" its field. Thus, Butler county has within its limits the great lu te-rests of almost a State to be cared for :.i Congress. Oil production has leaped for ward to take its place a.- one of the load ing industries of the country; and no county in the United States is more com pletelv it - centre than Butler. This oil production promi-' s to larj.-' _ enrich the propc rty owner- in tl - c unty. and to give -trench and life to every otl: branch of businec?. Already onr faraer have chared largely ia its benefits. With ti'.er, !ed develop-ie-it. these bene- I fits will be increased. It is to the inter».-i | of over}' enterprising citizen to lelp for w srd this wonderful development a-s a source of county wealth. lias it occurred to our people that this I oil trade is to become world-wide; that ' Butler countv oil ij to find a market in Ind : s, China and Japan, and that as this market is opened up the demand for onr Butler county production will be increases; that added value will be riven to our farms and land owners will reap a richer harvest from oil privileges and a general spur will be given to all kind= of bnsim'S-! This will be aided by Congress in bringing to the notice of foreign nation 3 the suppy we have in store for them; in providing methods for collecting and publishing statistics of the trade, and communicating these through our foreign ministers and consuls to foreign powers. Besides this great industry which has sprung Minervc like into existence may incur the jealousy of rival interests that will seek throng!: Congress to impose burdens upon it that it is unable to bear. Now, whom have we in the Senate or House to-day, who knows any thintr about the oil trade? We know of no Sena tor or Representative who is posted on th> subject. Other interests are ably repre sented in Congress. The iron interest, the wool interest, the sugar interest, the tobacco interest, and the liquor interest, are all ably represented on the floor of Con gress. The oil interest alone, of all the great interests of the country, has not a single Representative. Is it not high time it should have one.' Where can we find so experienced ai. 1 able a Representative to represent th:- great industry, as well as all the other ir dustries of this district, as Thorn is W Phillips? The other candidates lor Con gress in this district, Messrs. McDowell and Gillespie, reside entirely outride "1 the oil territory in a remote part of the dis trict, and of course neither of them art familiar with the claims of this great in dustry, or with its importance as aa element of National commerce, demanding the care of the Government. Voters of Butler county, think lieforo you vote, whether it w:nld be wiw to I°* this opportunity of placing in Congo • perhaps, the bent posted man in the I nited Htat' J in the details of your greatest in duslry and sufl'pr for want of hi* help in • CoElgrfMS.

He who lakes a bribe will strip the dead, Will rob the orphan of bis crust of bread; So lost to justice, equity and right, That man will steal the aged widow's mite, Pillage the palace of the King of kings, And clip the gilding from an Angel's wings. — Dryden. Are any number of onr citirens no de graded that they will vote for a man whose nomination was procured by bribery. Wo do not believe there are. The vote nert Tuesday will show that there are not. TUB Phillips army has reached the suin wit of the bill and is now swooping down upon the coterie of corruptionicts and put ting them to flight. Any Republican in this county wlu» casts bis vote for any other than Mr. Phillips for Congress throws bis vote away. THE best joke of the campaign is the statement that Mr. Phillips owes .John Smith of Cherry township, $27,000 and will not pay it. Why did not Thompson n.ake it *27,0u0,000.00 while he was at it? The Twenty-fifth Contest. II there has been any calculation that Thomas W. Phillips, the Harmony nomi nee for Congress in the Twenty-fifth dis trict, will be defeated on Tuesday next, so as to allow the Democratic candidate to win the seat, it is rather more likely than not to prove a serious error. Mr. Phillips iB an honest and popelar man. Hi- in tegrity and straightforwardness ure perfect ly well understood b} - the people; and he is nobody's servant in politics. That both bargaining and bribery were conspicuously Involved in the first Republican nomina tion no one pretends to dispute Mr. Phillips, the second nominee, represents the opposition to those agencies. There are many Democrats who on an issuo of this sort, and in support of »tt«d) a tatr man as Mr. Phillips, should be able to rise superior to party lines. At the time they are commending a numerous element in the Republican party for taking a stand in the Governorship contest outside of par ti.ian influence, it might be confi.itent and becoming to exhibit, tor their own part, something of ft like spirit in the Twenty filth district. At all events, until ?' ■; nn tional councils of the Democracy change their attitude of nn ; tho tariff, the best interests of Penn ylvaniu will di> tiuctly be subserved by sending Repub lican to Congress.—Pittsburg Jjixjmtiii TIIASKSOIVI.NO OAY will be our licit holiday, and how could you thank your Creator that you are an American citizen, alter countenancing bribery at the poilsf Till, PEOPLE of the United States are I'nue responsible for its government, and it Is their duty to act up to th ir respon sibility and vote for men that they know are honest and capable.

In the twenty-filth Congressional Dis trict of this State, composed of the coun ties of Beaver, Lawrence, Mercer and Hut lcr, there is an opportunity for the launch ing of a thunderbolt by the people. Tl.' re ha- been admitted fruUd on the part of . omebody in connection with the nomination of Mr. McDowell. Whether he was cognizant of that fraud or not, he benefited by it, and js at le mt in this case the receivi i of stolen goods. This Congressional district lies at the door of l'ittshiirg, and is iu many ways in timately bound up with it. It is a district which has highly important manufacturing and agricultural interests, and a !ir/c pro portion of its voters are familiir *ith the necessity of having a representative in Congrc. who can think, act and talk in a manner worthy of the constituency. Such a man is to bo found in the pe -on of Thomas W. Phillips, ol NewC'u lle, who has become the Republican caudidute.
