The above namedgentleman appears
e
in our paper this w k as a prominent
„ l
advertiser,' in which he calls us to account
for a remark we tookloccesion to make in
regard to 4 1irdepencient Candidates" in
our paper of last week: We do not,knotv
that .Nve'are under arfr particular obliga
tion to reply to Ma..l l Fatitv's arguments
in behalf of his clair4s upon the voters of
Potter County, and !had desired to avoid
any controversy with him whatever ; but
as he has taken , the pains to give us a
"going over" at this,i the "eleventh hour"
of the canvass, we oils) it not, only to our
self, but to our Mends to reply to
this direct attack . sirf Mr. Perry, while
nt, themme time we i wish to define our po
sition in regard to that doctrine of inde
pendent caudidatesi
To commence with, thee, we are free
to eonfess that we are not (1 14004' 1 very
well in regard to the past political histo
ry of our county; but we wilt also freely
acknowledge that? we wrote the article
whieli has called forth Mr. Perry's een
sure, with e fall beoWledge, of the fact
That the jouital4had always favored the
indepeedent systcfm, before it came into
our hands. - It, ;therefore, becomes net
cessary for us to explain why we departed
from the' fernier luipal course of the pa
per,'in regard to this matter, We set
'ut, therefore, with the declaration that
we deemed such 'a course impolitiein the
present 0414410 d of the party. We re
garded it as bOPPlise we deemed
it no longer necessary for the purpose it
was then • intaided—.-namoly, , the over
throw of the Deinoemtie party. We do
not say this be l 'eaus6 we have been told
that it was' the object in view—we have
never been told; so—we say it because we
believe it. to hate been the policy adopted
by the opponents of the Democratic par
ty to defeat it. 1 And ire will go still fur
ther, and say, that we rejoice in the glo-,
rions result of the policy. We have been
educated respect the action of par
ty Conventions--to regard that action as
finid , in its ilea blicilh,•. We have. always
told that if aptly wild be strong it
must be unfted—and that when a PAPP
repudiates the action of a party conven
tion, he repudiates the party represented
by it. 'lt is for this reason that convent
4'o are t lO l4l nweii. , '"44:llifirratutise the
chi* of 'candidates—and from its simi
larity i 4 principle to that of our system
of government, the, Convention system
derives its popularity and weight. There
' fordo we are Om it par attachment to the
miens, however much we may differ fit=
theforner policy of the l liaper we control,
Ar hoirtier widely 'we -maydelart, from
thejleretofore necessary policy of the pax
ty 41 which we claim , to be the organ in
this county--and -We further desire it
particularly anderstoell that we have not,
aril wit? not, advocate any - ogler
than that we, deem most prudent, and
which will best conserve the interests'of
the i Republican perty—wbicli we believe
to be the truestrepreientative of the pep ,
ple. In view of the fact that the major-
ity otour party is composed of t - hoe° who
repudiated uther *ties' on the ground
that they could ncit awallow,the principle
of Slavery—net, because of pplititudunt-,
bitionrideern the Convention syitteni
beat adapted. to its'present condifiniti-ifor
thit rasert . _ that. there is all the;Oeiede

all who have - Witnessed the potency of the
Repudiation system in overthrowing party
organization, sit evidenced in thesuceess
of the Republican party In this County,
wilt agree with as insaying that the Conk
iention system is necessary the - future
well-being and strength of the party.

support, though perhaps not dir' eotly - so,L
Baited by Mr. Perry, he invites by his
repudiation of Mr. Olmsted's! nomination.
And, in conclusion, we would ask of
every Republican in the county, his ap
probation or disapprobation of our policy,
though we cannot hope to have an ex-
I pression of that in the present contest.—

title until after the election. If we are,
not to be bound by the action of our con
ventions, it is high time that conventions
were entirely dispensed with—for, where

benefit from their action, if the Repudia

no half-way system in the matter.. If we
have a pasty organization at all, it must
be complete, and harmonious to be sue

would caution our friends to beware of bogus - et..unty tiikets; as
there are a Couple of-Independent candidates in the t.eld, who will.
not be scrupulous as to the manner of obtaining 'trotes, if they can.

before ttle - peoPle of Pottet. County, Andrew . Jaci , son , for Register
and. Recrder, and myself for Prothonotary, I consider my 'ticket
is one-referr ed ,to as bein g Of the " bogus sort ; " and o f
I my way

and well:; known thriAghout the county, and able to defend himself'.
I pr pose, therefore; to liave'him with the people - ,'whose business
it is to pass their verdict on the qualifications of biiiiselt aim his
riv;,l, Mr. Appleton :Butterworth, the nominee of the. Republican
convention. To avoid misapprehension hereafter Concer t - 1 ;4

cisely what I claim t&be; an independent candidate foi the office
of -Prothonotary. ,
As yon have but recently taken up your .residenc - e in this county.
it can not [be presumed that you are ful - y postedl;in our political
history. I can but regret this, as you will be liable to fall into
errors that may do great -injustice to unotiending 'parties. If your
had looked over ~the first, six vo umes of the !iyeople's Journal,"
you netrei l woulAave'cautioned your " friends," against voting an
Independent ticket, nor applied the term bogus Itoq an Independent,
ticket. For the first six years of our existence - I tisa political: party,
we kneWi no other ticket, advocated no other tickeN.and voted no
other ticket. Then it was "the genniti - e",kieket We repudiated
eenventianias being the culminating point .of pOliticateorrup
tions ; log-rolling, bargain and sale, was - the mildest language ap
plied to all democratic conventions. *With thaselweapons, and
B , entorea arguments, which " formed the staple Fpf almost all the
campaign- editorials, we' Pitched into the Democratie party, and gave
it particular fits. Very r luctantly we consented to =go into eon.
vention.--, and when we done so, it was with the implied under
standitig that when it correctly represented ;the people, and its
transaCtions were in all respects fair, its decisions 'should be authori-'
tative ;! - Still we retained the right of private judgm e nt. Had you

Olmsted, after submitting , his name to a Democratic convention,
and getting a taste of its fruits, announced hiruself,asian Indepeedent
candidate, in opposition to Ins PARTY, end here the parallel between
Mr Olmsted and myself ends—he renounced Ws dernocracy, and
we, the Free Sailers embraced him, advocated 'the. independent
candidate, voted the independent tieket, and , glarified the " Inde.
pendent, systkm." It was genuine orthodoxy there My friends,

(with whom I have acted a long time---and Mr Olmsted disenver at

by no logical proposition can you demonstrate_ that it is " bogus"
now. If through inability you fail to t-ee the correctness of my.
reasoning, you deserve pity. If pride deter you . from acknowr:
edging the truth, that even "can not excite my-resentment "
It is Said the party will be distracted in consequence of my repu
diating idle nomination of .Mr. Olmsted. This i - may be true to a
certain extent. have heard of distract - ons that were very healthy,
this ma n y partake of that character. Official Monkipoly, the concen
tration of official patronage, and the centralization of political
power, ,tends to distract a party more than the efforts of an humble
individual like myself. We have endeavored to Alistribute offices
independent of local or individual prejudice and regard every por
tion of 'the county entitled to equal respect.; - We have endeavored
to prevent the growth of a political regency. But in the late con
vention, in spite of our protestations and our efforts, those towns
which have worked quietly but uniformly fbr the success of the Re
publican party, were disposed of in a most arb4rary manner; and
that spirit so potent from its advantageous ',position, developed
itself by the selection of tivo candidute.s residing in the Borough of
I Coudersport. If inadvertently, the same fatality attends the trans~.
liction, , predential motives alone would dictate a different policy.
I have been told "it is political death,t6 repudiate the action of,
your party assembled in convention. If death is the result of re
pudiation, the Republican party we:Uld have passed off the stage a
long while since. Thu web and filling of its

only way left to preserve your consistency is to maintain a profeital
