VICTORY
It is seld'o'm a political party enters a
campaign under circumstances so favor
able as those which now surround the
Republican party: The election in Ken
tucky, held some weeks' since, showed a
very large increase in the Republican vote
and indicated unmistakably that enri
in that benighted region, there was an
awakening of the people to their best in-
terests. A few weeks' later and Califor
nia, from which the mosteangulueßepub
lican hardly expected to hear aught else
than defeaS,,sent us the glorious news
that a Republican Governor had been
chosen by six thousand -majority ; that
her legislature was in shape to give the
Republicans a United States Senatoi•
from that:State, and that we bad gained
two members of Congress. This was
glorious news indeed, but it was scitrnl;
told until more victories were announced.
prom Delaware and Wyoming, came
news of victories that indicated, that even
in these strongholds of Democracy, the
RepubliCans had faith in their cause, and
were worthy of their professions. And
now from Maine comes the news that we
have . not only•carried both the Goveilor
and the Legislature, but that our major
ities have been:largely increased. Thus
wherever wo have met the enemy, vic
tory has 'ruched upon our banners, and
we remain masters of the field.
All eyes now turn toward Pennsyl
vania. Her voice is needed yet to make
the conquest cOmplete. As teaho result,
simply there is not, nor was there ever
any doubt. All the tricks, and schemes,
read exertions of the Democracy, could
not swerve the Keystbne State from the
record made in favor of free institutions
and good government every year since
1858. But more than a simple victory is
needed. Wo must make our success so
complete and triumphant, that in the
great campaign of 1872, WC may win a
glorious victory almost without effort.
Pennsylvania . can give Stanton and
Beath twenty thousand majority, and it
must be done.
Tna Volunteer .of - last week, publishes
a letter from Gen, aingharn, to a "late
cigar inspector" in this town, who, it
seems, wasn't too conscientious a Demo
crat to obtain a Federal appointment,
asking a Contribution of $2O, to the ex
penses of the campaign. This is refresh
ing, and reminds us of old times. In
1860, we had somewhat of a lively can
vass in this county, and brother Kennedy
ran the Democratic Machine., Ho per
haps, remembers some very urgont lot
tors ho addiessed to different places for
contributions to help crush out radical
ism. If ho, doesn't, and desires it, we
might republish ono from our illes.
liistory will repeat itself, 'you - know.
We would like, just for curiosity, to
know the assessment on the court olitcors
of'this county for the present campaign,
from President down to Janitor. It
appears that all the poculations of the
Commissioners' offices are not cuough
to * run the local machine here.
'Tun debt of York county amounts to
about *120,000. This is pretty
. good,
mien for a, Democratic county. We
wonartie - WitirstiMis - of York manage
to roll up debts as rapidly as they do.
They tax heavily—seven mills, we be
lieve, for county purposes—and although
they build expensively, and do their ut
most to squander money, we can't `see
how they run the debt as high se - it is.
Our, people give heavy, contracts, build
big honks and bridges, and are gener
ally believed to be stealing to the best of
their ability, but we haVen't more than
ono-third ; the debt York has: ',Hadn't our
Commissioners better visit our sister.
county and take some lessons. `They
have the talent—if - they, only had the
diseipline._ .
IN speaking of the late Commissioner
trials, the Volunteer of last wookisaid
."There may. be some force in this
i lea, butoomepersons will regard it as
a pretty good joke on justice, that' the
court and jury and several eminent
coun
sel should be Ongagod for tWo whole days
• in conflicting an unsophisticated old gen
tleman of an offence whioli did not wrist
upon the statue book.'!'
•
We think so, decidedly, but VO'I3I.IH
, poet it was not the inti3ntion to cony's,
of any offense that might be inado nn
.comfortablo. •
OUR COUNTY TICKET
We have not heretofore called atton-
tion:tp the.mbrits of the different candi
dates nominated ,by our Republican
County Convention, for the reason that
we desired to see the ticket comphSte
before speaking• of it. As the nomina
tions, however, are now all made with
the exception of that of Senator, we will
briefly review the candidates.
• ~For President Judge, we present the
nail() Of Benjamin F. Junkin, of
Perry county, be having been chosen
the candidate by the Judicial conference,
which mot on Tuesday. ^ Of Mr. Junkin'a
qualifications and, popularity, it would
be impossible. to• speak too highly. lie
has for many years been regarded as the
leader of the Perry Cadity Bar, and is
widely
,known as a gentleman of great
ability, profound legal learning and un
questioned integrity. Ile is in the prime
of life, is in full health and vigor, and
is noted for his courtesy and urbanity
of manner. Ho has every requisite for
a Judge, and no citizen of the district
will vote unworthily who casts his'
ballot for him. It will be remem
bered that Mr. Junkin was elected to
Congress, by VII Republican party, in ,
1858, from our pi. sent heavy Democratic_
district, and this fact proves his remark
able personal popularity. Although
Cumberland county presented a gontlo
man for.the nomination, tor whom our
friends have the highest admiration,
nevertheless Mr. Junkin's nominaz
tion is evebrwliere received with
entire satisfaction. He will receive the
full and hearty support of ,the entire
party in this county, and if Perry and
Juniata do their full duty, we can secure
Republican . Judge, in a district which
has hitherto been Democratic. •
The Convention was fortunate in the
selection of candidates for the office of
ASsociate Judges. William Mete an, of
Shippensburg, and Samuel Eberly, of
Silver Spring township, are men .who
would give strength mid character to any
ticket. Mr. McLean, is known through
out Tho county as a man of strict integ
rity, of unblemished moral character,
and one who has the esteem and • COllll
- of nll who know him. is a
gentleman of intelligence and great busi
ness experience,. Mr. Eberly has no
superiors anywhere. Ile is honest, in
telligent, courteous in his manners, and
without reproitchr either in businesi or
morals. Ile is justly popular wherever
he is known. Our candidates for Asso
ciate Judges, deserve the votes of all good
EIS!
The selection of Jacob Bomlterger,' of
Southampton township, as the Republi
can candidate for-the Legislature, is one
of the most judicious that could have
been made, and speaks well—for the wis
dom and discernment of the Convention
which placed him in nomination.
Wherever Mr. Bomberger As known, he
commands the respect and confidende of
all classes of the community. His purity
of character and geniality of disposition,
together with his many Other excellent
qualities of head and Nail; have won fos
him a large circle of friends:and admires•
As a business man; he has but few
equals. Always prompt to act, bringing
to his aid n judgment which is rarely at
fault, and an energy which never wearies.
In early. life 1i learned the art of
Printing, and for a number of years win;
editor and publisher of the Shippens
burg News, the duties of which position
Jae discharged with credit to himself and
advantage to the party to whicli lie
belonged. In 1851 he was nominated
by the American party as Oho of its
candidates fur the Legislature. In that
year, however, the Whig party in its
expiring hour, nominated a full county
ticket, which polled a little over five
hundred votes, ,a large majority of which
would have been cast for the American
ticiet had this nomination not been
made. Notwithstanding this, Mr. B.
lacked but one hundred and .nine votes
of being elected. Since that time he has
lost nothing in popularity, but is stronger
to-day than he has been at any known
toriod of his life.
For District, Attorney we have W. F.
Sadler, who is well-known as au - able
lawyer, and an excellent man. Among
his professional brethren he is knelwn as
an energetic, faithful and honorable ad
vocate, and the whole community know
Min as an active, enterprising and pub
lic-spirited. citizen. The office' of Dis
trict Attorney is a very important one,
and should be Mica by no one who is not
a thoroughly able and energetic lawyer.
Mr. Sadler can be elected, if our friends
do their whole duty, and certainly his
qualifications and services to the. party
entitle him to hearty support. •
For Treasurer we have Dr. W. G.
Stuart, of Ne atburg. The Dr. is an ac
tive and ardent Republican, a gentleman
-who Stands high In is profession, atuben
joys Llic esteem and 'confidence of his
community. His honesty is beyond sus
picion, and he has every qualification for
an efficient and popular Treasurer. No
better selection Mulct have been made,
and wo heartily commend him to the
earnest support of every one. '
For Commissioner, J. C. Sample, of
Silver Spring township, has been nond
nated. In these days of corruption and
systematic stealing in the Commission
ers' office, it is of the highest 'conse
quence that we have men-elected to that
position who are above suspicion, and
who will administer the affairs of the
county for the good of the citizens, and
not for their 6{51 private gain,' It is
Conceded by. all, that 'Mr. Sample will
make an honest and ellioicnt Conimis
, stoner, and, this ought to secure his elec
tion.- lie is--very popular in his own,
section, and will, doubtless, poll a large
vote. • 4 •
The nomMer .. ,for,..the other offices,
Mr. Seifert for t . 'county Surveyor, Mr.!
Rupp for Director of the Poor, and Mr.
Banks for Auditor, aro all excellent men
and earnest Republicans. They have
done good service in the party, and
the-hearty and cordial support of
their party, friends and all others. "
The. ticket, entire, speaks for itself.
There line seldom been a bettor one put
in nominatlom. Every , Republicah should
devote his best energies to, secure its
success, and if all do their duty, the ma
jority, against it will not be formidable.
tho Domocratio papers lost their
"roosters I"' It is a long time since wo
saw one of them. There have been
elections, lately• in Maine, California,

Democrationicicon has shown his head.

Tun Volunteer takes.usto task for ap
proiindtho land grants to railroads made
under R.Spublican rule; and wants an
explanation : We will endeavor to give
the establishment over the• way some in
formation thereon, which it seems to
need badly. • '
„ .
.First,' the • TroWinker -complains that
162,000,000 acres haitre been .given to
railroads, and - piles up a great column
of items tto make 'this look formidable.
The whole of the matter may bo stated
thus : The three groat trans-continental
lines; the Union and_Centritl. Pacific,
Northern Pacific and Atlantic and Pa
cific companies; received 135,000,000,
the other 21,000,000 being divided among,
perhaps, twenty other different compa
nies., - Now, lot us examine the vote on
these gritntE, _ The Union and Central
Pacific gtari: passed, the yeas, 35, nays,
5, but two-Democt 7 ats voted against the
grant, and eight voted for it, or includ
ing Dixon -Doolittle, Cowan and Brown
ing, who wore vary poor Republicans,
it might be fair to say that Huelva Demo
•crats voted for it. The Northern Pa
cific Railroad grant pasSed the Senate
without a division, not a singla . Democrat
oldechng to its passage, We have not
before us the vote on the Atlantic and
'Pacific or on the smaller grants, But
we hazard little in saying that they also •
passed without division. So much.for
the history of these - grants. Now to
their expediency.
To the Government or the people they
were worth nothing, 'they were
held. The homestead acts actually
offered them a free gift to every ono who
would take thorn for use, but they
wouldn't - have been given away for the
next Century, and without the building
of the 'roads, they would have been
worthless to the actual settler. By the.
grants ono• great railroad has already
been built across the conftent, and two ;
others are in progress, and will in a few
years be completed. Along the lino of
these great ;highways, States will be
formed with a rapidity heretofore un
heard of; and the development of their
resources, by means of these railroads,
will soon dcmonstrat'e the wisdom.' of
the measures which made their construe-
ion possible.
We have approved these land grants
iecause they have made the nation
richer than it would have been had it
kept those broad acres for a century, or
than. even it would be, could they be
sold now for cash at, the Government
price. We approve them because they
have made it possible for those who de.
sire homesteads, to find them where they
may grow into value, and under circum
stances where it is possible for a human
being to liVe on them. And we know
that the, scheme has the approval of the
men of the Volunteer's own party, who
have achieved sufficient position' and
reputation to be beyond the necessity
of Playing the demagtigne. Ilnvg~ eve
explained ?
THE: Democracy of New York City,
have a politician by the name of Con
nolly. lie lias been for some years . Co
ntroller .of the city. His duty is to
audit the claims against the city, and
none can be paid but liaise allowed by
him. Mr. Connolly has. a wife whose
name is May Connolly. This lady owns
just $4,500,000 of registered bonds of
the C. S. as shown by the boAs at
'Washington. It is said on reliable
authority, that she also owns $3,500,-
000 of bonds which arc not registered.
This isn't bad for Mrs, Ciinnolly, and it
sugge - sts a little question iu arithmetic.
New York city has about a million of.
inhabitaiA this U. S. about 40 millions.
The Democracy would like to get bold
of the Govcrriiii6l. If so, Connolly
could be appointed Controller of the
Treasury, if he wanted, because he
belongs to the Tammany ring which
rules the Democracy. lie might, per
haps, want it. Now how many U. S.
bonds would 'Mrs. Mary Connolly own if
her husband were Controller of the
National Treasury for four years, the
ratio of stealing remaining as in the
New York government 7 , Any
,arith-,
metic men about 7 •
Tun Commissioners of Cumberland
county, fraudulently pay mon for not
getting contracts.
They also make corrupt bargains with
mtraelors, by which the people are
cheated out of their money, and the
Commissioners pocket, it,
They make - corrupt bargains in fixing
the salaries of officers.
They charge and receive compensa
tion for service' to which they aro no
inure legally entitled thin if they had
never been elected.
And : yet, when it suits the Demo
cratic party to trace out these matters,
;old attempt to purify the office, they
ac
complish only the conviction of a poor
old man; who seems tote the scapegoat
for the crimes of the bigger sinners of
the crowd, and he only„ pu_a..defective
indietthent.
How long will the. honest tax-payers
of this county .continuo in power, a
party which thus allows their money to
be squandered and stoleu without any
prevention or punishment.
THE New York fraulis have finally
come into Court, on the petition of
citizens to restrain the authorities from ,
issuing - more bonds or levying more taxes.
We are now getting komething like a
correct statement of the' debt of that
great sink of iniquity. Mr. Roosevelt,
a Democratic Congretisman from Nev‘
York city, states that the debt is over
$200,0.00,00_0, and of,this amount
.$163,090,000 hay° been added since
JaimarY 1869.: The debt ofthe city
amounts to 2¢ Per cent of tgo assessed
value of all the real est'aie in-it. What
a glorious thing for s community is a
Delimeratic government.
ROpllbliCall city,
spends about NINE millions per year.
No* York, a Democraticqity, spends
i'WENTY-TIIREE" milliotir3"lior year, be
sides the debt that is allowed to pile up.
Philadelphia in, in territory, sove•al.times
larger than Now York, and it would
seem ought, therefore, to ho more expen
sly() in the Government. but
New Yorlc° is several times more
Democratic 'than Philadelphia, and
consequently spends, squanders and
steals, nearly three :times - 'l4,4nuch , by
taxation, and ten Limes as much, by
debt as does Philadelphia.'

derers, and keepers of all manner of in
faMollB dens. They are men who stoop
to every deceit ; rob rich and poor alike ;
who lie for; and to, and steal Ain each
other, and claim to own the entire Denio
cratic party of the city and State of New
York.
These leaders are Win. M. Tweed,
Peter B. Sweeny, Hichard B. Connolly
and A. Gilkey Hall. The - first named is
head Sachem of Tammany, President of
the Americus Cdb. State Souator,„ and
Commissioner of Publie- , Works for the
city of New York—a fat Falstaff at the
Load of as villainous a brood of scoundrels
of high and low degree, from George G.
Barnard, Judge of the Supreme Court,
to the diseased repeaters, too hideous to
lie recognized, as ever gathered in a
panel crib.
Peter B. Sweeny is Boss of the Parks,
a beetle-browned personage with no more
soul, heart or honefity than a snake.
llichard'l3: Connolly, C ity Comptroller
known as Slippery Dick, and the biggest
liar to be found in the entire State. A
man who tins ,reduced falsehood to a
science—who says lying is a virtue—who
makes millions each year by'refusing to
audit bills or issue warrants for claims
on the city Treasury, till his shave, vary
ing from one to lifty per cent be paid.
A maim who has, by fraud, lying, stealing
and robbery, risen from a beggar of
drinks before flfth-rate grog shops to be
one of the elect, select skoddyites and
bondholders of New York, and who will
do well if ho, by flight or by luck, escape
tarring and feathering, or hanging by a
vigilance committee.
Next in this ring is A. OakeY Ha i the

masters on earth and one in hell, steal

his own account, fingering bills, dabbing
in speculation's 'against thenity and help
ing other magnates of Tammany to rob
the people.
These men arc the power in Tammany:
These men claim to be Democrats, Mid

To endorse them is to defend corrup

To Stand by them other than with' a

scribed as flying at all heights, and are
represented_as about four inches across
the wings from tip to tip, and of " a rich

marked by a triple row of white spots."
LITTL4 TOO THIN.
By far the.wea;kest Weapon of the De
mocracy in the coming contest is their
morbid and maudlin appeal .in behalf of
labor. The loaders appear to treat the
humble as fools, said deal out their sym
pathy fOr the toiling classes with un
measured hands. Particularly is this
the fact 'in' the mining dOuntry. The
workingmell are appealed to with great
earnestness, and their support is vehe. ,
mently demanded as a matter of right.
Now, it is but fair to be square in poli
tics as in all things cla; and it 'is quite
as necessary, if this labor question is to
enter the cauvass, - that-the truth khotild
be told. So far as the mining regions
are concerned, the Doinocracy aro not in
harmony with the laboring- classes.'
Whether right or wrong, the latter de
manded advanced wages. This was re
fused. By whom? By the corporations
who control lah'or. Who are they ? The
Reading mallroad, with a Democratic
president; the Lehigh Valley railroad;
with a Democratic president; the -Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Susquehanna
railroad, with a Democratic president,
and others of the same ilk. So that so
far as the matter of "labor's rights"
are concerned, the Democracy had bet
ter hold their wist.
But where is the use of dragging the
question in at all. There is nothing ab
solutely in it. Workingmen understand
quite as well as politicians can tea them
Where their interests fib. They are not
fools, though they quite frequently get
aqtray. They, are, however, competent
to judge of the quality of candidates, and
they are not likely to support any one
directly inimical to their interests. It
will not dui-therefore,' for any party to
attempt to play upon their passions or
trade. upon their
.sympathies. Indeed,
w_e are Surprised to find that such an
attempt has been essayed. Still, it is a
matter of taste. If the Democratic
leaders think that their cause will be
promoted by running straight in the face
of facts, such as we have presented
shove, they may do so ; but to our view
they would exhibit greater wisdom and
insure a wider success by ignoring im
position or anything savoring of a qual
ity S\mean. Let the workingmen alone.

PaonitEss.—The gentlemen who aro
pushing the nail factory enterprise, give.
most encouraging reports of" their suc
cess. The stock now subscribed amounts
to about $lO,OOO, and but little time has
been spent itu soliciting subscriptions.
The committee,, also have the assurance
from Judge Watts, the President of the
Cumberland Valley Railroad, that Ice
will urge upon that company to make a
large subscription to ,the stock of the
nail works, and also to give special rates
for freight. This liberality, on the part
of the President of the railroad
is commendable, and will make
the success of the enterprise, a
sure thing front the start, and our citi
zens will, do well to' ramember that it
comes feom ono who has been the lead
ing spirit of ,many of our enterprises
Our railroads, agricultural society, and
gas and water works, sufficiently attest
-his-public spirit in former years;and-the
interest which he -manifests iu this un
dertaking, will be fully appreciated by
our citizens.
Now as..y.w.siiid last week, there can,
be no doubt of the success of this enter
prise, unless tlio community - dosiro that
it shall fail. With the amount already
subscribed; and the promised
by the railroad, there will be but com
paratively a small amount of stock re
maining to be subscribed. Let , this be
taken in 'small amounts by the business
men and mechanics of the town, Ind the
farmers of the neighborhood. They, aro
all vitally interested in the matter, and
can make it succeed. TAt, every ono give
the enterprise all the encouragement in
his power, and it will succeed to the
benefit and advantage of the whole com
munity.

was obliged to be taken home in a wagon.
It is needless to say that the white man
was a Democrat.
• PAPER TurEvEs.—Many of our town
subscribers complain of the non-receipt
of their papers. The papers are certainly
taken by evil-disposed persons after the
carrier, has left them where they properly
belong. It is not the carrier's fault we
know, as ,he is a very careful boy. We
did not suppose there were any personr
in this • community, that would comic
scowl to steal a newspaper. Our patrons
would do well to watch=-,heir premises
about the time the'earrier-boy makes his
appearance._

dangerous alkaloid is needed, for Hoof
