TO THE VOTERS OF PENNSYLVANIA
Chas. R. Buckalew and John F. Hartranft
Voters of Pennsylvania, let Its for a mo
ment glance at the true characters of the
two. men who are now presented •to-you for
your suffrage for the highest gift which lies
in the hands of the voters of the Keystone
State. I ..
Charles R. Buckalew, the DemOcratic
candidate for Governor, was during the war
United States Senator. During his term of
Senatorship a bill.was.brought upln the U.
States,' Senate for the payment of our sol
diers who enlisted . in 1863, the year which
turned the fortunes of the bloody war in
favor Of the Union armies—the year when
the rebel Gen. Lee invaded our proud Com
monwealth. On .the call for, the yeas and
nays on the bill; Charles R. Buckalew, voted
no money to pay Union soldiers. Think of
it only for a moment, yeltetoes of•the War.'
Can you vote for a man who in thosetrying,
times was'your - mostdeadly enemy Can
you support a. man for GovernOrl of your'
State who gloried in the defeat of ' the, Un-_
ion armies, and who woul 1 haVe shouted
until his tongue cleaved t( the roo,flof his
mouth had the "Lost Cams o' been success
ful?
Again,' during the war, while an•eXciAtig
election was being held in BloomsbM - g, the
home of Buckalew, he assisted in opening
the Columbia county jail 'and voting the
prisoners in the interest of the Democratic
partY and rebelliotia The Southern Confed
eracy robbed ate -eradle to overthrow the
Republic. and Charles R. Buckalew robbed
the County jail to - assist them. What say
you to this, fathers who have had sons slain
by rebel hands, and whose bones now lie
bleaching on Southern battle fields? What
'say you to this, young Men? you who at the
time of the war were too young to assist
yon country on _ the battle field, but now
have the right to vote, and whose fathers at
those trying—times went forward to battle
for their countrY; — aud_for you, but never re
turned,—can you, will yo - u.,_,y - ,ote for such a
man? While father and son were nobly de
fending their
their country, while they were la
boring to save its proud name from utter
disgrace, Charles R. Buckalew was pouring
shot and shell in their real-. He, with all
the brain and muscle that was in him; la :
bored, yea, steadfastly labored, for their de
feat.
J.,11 : 1, 1872
Again, he is the candidate of the largest
corporation of the State, viz: the Reading
Railroad Company. Workingmen ' reflect
when I tell you candidly why he is the can
didate of this corporation, It is the inten
tion of this company to buy up all :the coal
lands of the anthracite region, in order for
them to control the labcir.of that important
part of the State. • Under the authority of
a law passed by the Legislature of our State,
this corporation can absorb the coal lands
of ,the anthracite region, and i irt, order for
them : to, be protected in thin. conspiracy
ageing labor, ;it, is ne4essary-1 , them to
Babe a naan of, thg cbepoiatii4n )n the Gu
bernatorial chair. Worklngthen of Penn
sylvania, can you vote for such a man?--
Think of the conspiracy against you, con
cocted by this gigantic corporation and i e.
R. Buckalew; and yet in the face ,of it 'all
they have the audacity to ask you to come
forward and slay yourselves. The question
is will you do it? Methinks there* is man
hood enough left in the workingmen of the
anthracite regions to defeat such a base con
cocted conspiracy. We ask you, then, will
'y vote for Charles R. Buckalew, who To
ted adainst paying Union soldiers? Will
you vote for Charles R. Buckalew, the man
who assisted in opening a county jail and
voting the prisoners contained thereinto the
interest of rebellioh? Will you ;vote for
Charles R. Buckalew, the man who is at the
bottom of a deep laid conspiracy against
the working-men of the anthracite coal re
gions of the State? Let your voices be
heard at theiballot box on the second Tues
day of October.
„ Now, as to John'F. Hartranft, the Repub
lican,candidate: He, at the' breaking out of
the rebellion, was a war Democrat. But
'did he sympathize with the traitors to the
Government? Did he give aid and shelter
to rebel soldiers? Did he for a moment
'countenance the act of so base a conspira
cy for the overthrow of this great and good'
Government? Was be ever known to have'
organized a bogus camp meeting in order to
shield traitors and rebel soldiers from ar
rest?. No, emphatically no. On the con
trary, be at the very outset of the war went
as a Colonel of volunteers from his native
county, MeAtgomery. All his life a believ
er in the liberal cause and an opponent,"of
slavery, when the great fight for the mas
tery came, John F. Hartranft was found a
soldier, and ready to enlist his services in
the cause of his country. alp took an act
ive part in the work in the three months'
service, and afterward served in Grant's ar
my before Richmond: His gallant lighting
at Fort Steadman was of immense value• in
leading to the final results of the war; and
to-day he stands the hero of nineteen bat
tles.
Now let us take a glance at his craracter
in civil life. - For the last six years he has
been Auditor General of the, State, the most
important office in the gift of the people of
the Commonwealth. How did he manage
the affairs of the State? .Pennsyltania nev
er had a more honeSt man in the Auditor
General's office' than john F. Hartranft.—
When he entered the office as Auditor Gen
eral theolebt of Pennsylvania - was $37,485,-
455 41, ;Dnring his first term, .by strict
economy and a faithful attendance "to duty,
he reduced the debt the amount of um,-
055 78, and during his second term there:
duction was $4,771,388 25, making tie to
tal of reduction $9,095,444 03, and this all
without any increase in taxation, and with
the tax on real estate and personal occupa;
tions removed. • •

You. might now ask, How about the Evans
emliezzlenient? 'The Evans Ictise is very
014 to dissect; it is an easy mattor.foi the
people of this State to understand itlieiEv
ami. embezzlement when it Is put before
their in its' true light.' Democratic papers
and Democratic healls have got it so valid
ated »p inirying to defame, the character of
Julio F. Haytranft, that to-day they ctoatiot
roll s nether George O. Evans is John W.
Pm;ney, 'or John 'W. Forney is peorge:G.'
Evans. This is the way it stands ris giVep
by .tbe opponents Of
,If artra I) ft'and` the ce=
port of the committee appointed, to investi
gate the - case. We will first - give the ' 64-
dence of D. C. Forney; as given by :him
before the legislative -investigating conimit
tee:
.
- "Q. Do you know- anything about- any
arrangements with Mr. Evans in 'regard to
the' passage of the act of 1861, (by tie
Pennsylvania Legislature, authorizing tie
appointment by the Governor of a St te .
Agent, Sm.)? A. Yes '
- sir.
" Q. Tell us - what. A. I found here; On
Washington,) by mere'accident, that there
were some claims due the State of Penp - 41-
rants. It was stated -that if Pennsylvania'
could have the same sort of agent as - Maitre
appointed she might 'recover her
Upon this suggestion I -conferred with Mr.
S. P. Brown, and we had a resolution drawn
up and put in the hands of Mr. George
Evans.
"Q: What arrangement was made' be=
twecn you and hint=who were parties• to
the division of the commissions? A. No
body but Mr. Evans, myself, and myhrotlil
er. I told Mr. Evans this was a thing that
would realize something, and inasmuch as!'
would favor him in the appointment far
sis my intinence went, I naturally .felt as
though I ought to shake some of the profits,
and be agreed to give me $10;000.
"Q. ' Whom did you communicate ; with
on the subject of making him agent? ;
" A. I had a talk with Col. Forney." '
Now is it not very plain to every
intelli
gent num that so far the Forney farnily
worked up all! their influence for the ap
pointment of George 0. Evans, for, their
pecuniary interest? Let us proceedi with
the testimony of Col. John W. Forney:
".Q. Had you ever any coriversatio4 with'
Mr. Evans prior to the introduction of the
esolution on that subject?
"A. Notie; sir; I wrote a letter reconi-'
nending him to the Governor, afterwel.
",Q. Was that after or, previous to , is ap-
ointment?
" A. Previous to his appointment ) On the
same subject, that of who worked up' and
consummated the appointment."
Mr. George 0. Evans testifies himself as
follows:
" •Do you remlember w o recounnend
ed you tO Governor Geary, through What
means you became appOint d State Agent?
" I think I-am indebt dto Colt John
W. Forney more'tharotcr an other man for
the indorsement to the Gove •nor, 'end per
haps also to several gentlemen .connected - ,
.with the Legislature, with whom I had no
personal acquaintance, but who wereper
suaded, from the recommendation of Col.
Forney, that I was a proper person to be'
appointed State Agent."
Does not the evidence of Colonel Forney
and Evans himself.show undoubtedly that
the appointment - of Evans was •in a sense •
the appointment of Forney? Now in order
to'convinco the people wore fully we"will'
,proceed With parts of the - evidence takbri:
J. M. M'Clure, Assistant Attorney Qeneral
of our State, was then sworn, and in his
evidence this occurs: •
"Q. State what
. you know aboitt 116
transaction, and when you first diseacefed
anything about the Evans embezzletnent
• The first clue I obtained to the bans
ewbezzlement,.or defalcation . , was WACO=
dent. I went into the State Library one
day, about April 12, 1871, and Mr: Forney;
I think, had a letter in his hand at the time.
I am not certain about that.. Ai any rate
he informed 'no he had just learned, in
some way, that some military claiMs bad
been collected. At the slime time Mr. For
ney iuformed me that he had learned there
Was an agreement of some kind drawn tip
at the time this resolution was passed,' and
named certain stuns which he had been in
formed were set apart; one was $5,000' to
the State Guard; , another, $lO,OOO to the
Philadelphia Press; another, $lO,OOO to the
Washington Chronicle."
About . this time Mr. Forney, of 'Woall
ingion, became suspicious- of Mr.? Evtrnsil
and thinking probably that Evans would
not come up to the• agreement, ho ;made a
bee line feu. Harrisburg, in order - to induce
Governor Geary. to compel Mr." bans to
shell out.' The . following , -testimony of
the Governor describes the interview: -
Q. Detail the' circumstances surround•
ing the visit of D. C. Forney to Harrisburg
about that time.
" A. The recollection I have is, that-im
mediately upon my return from' New York
and Wbst Point,, I observed D. C. Forney
and Wien Forney sitting in the :Executive.
Chamber. It so happened 'that I- was-Very:
much engaged, and they remained! there• a ,
considerable time. At length they • came
into my office and told'me that bib Evans
owed Mr. D. C. Forney $5,000, and wanted
to know if I. could not exercise thy
,influ
ence with Mr. Evans to get him to pay the
money. I told him no, very pereMpterily,
that I. had nothing more to do with Mr, 'Ev
ans's debts than those of any othei man in,
the CommOnwealth. I was so sharp about
it that I fearediat the time I had giVeri them ,
both serious otiense.7 ' - ; !„.r,
.Now, D. C. Forney admits itthis 'evidence
this interview with the Governor, 'and tells
in the evidence given below why he quar
reled with Mr. Evans.' Bear him:'
" Q. Did you knOw what Mr. Evans did
with the money? A. I have not the_ slight . -
est idea. '
Q. Had he any confidential communica r
tions with you as to where be put it?, A. No,
sir; after he was made agent he• dropped
me altogether.
"Q. Had. you accomplished his purposes?
A. "Yes, sir; I had as far as able helped to
Make him agent."
And now Mr. Evans comes in againwith
his testimony, acrd tells us who got the diV-
Idends:
Q. Did you.pay D. C. Forney any mon
eys out of these. commissions? A. 1 did
pay to D. C. Forney $6,000.
• For what was this money 'paid to
Mr. Forney?r A. It was paid on abcount of
a friendly appreciation of his serviced, anti`
on accomqt of his circumstances. •
Q. Was there no understanding between
you and him, expressed or' implied, that
this was for his aid in having you appointed
State Agent for Pennsylvania? '
"A. I think there was:-
"Q. Wm there an understanding? , ,
t• A. 'There was. ,
And now comes john W. Forney,:g4MlP
ting, with a wry face, and very reluctithty;
,that he received a portion pf
."Q. Subsequent to the paisage;ht tide
resolution, and after the receipt :of ; Moneys
by Mr. Evans from the United' States Gov-'
ernment, do,y9u Imo* anything Of any'
visions of the con - missions retained by . igt.
'Evans? - '
" A. Yothhig, except (and I suppose - that
is the object of my being summoned here),
my cousin, 1). C. Forney, was one o `his
sup-agents.
" Q. Do you know 'of Air. D., C. Foyney
having received. any money? A, Yes, air.
" From whom? I - know that, I). C.
'Forney received $5,000 froni, I think, Mr.
Evans, $2,000 of whichlie handed to me.
"Q. When Nvas this $5.000 received by ..
D. C. Forney? A. Some time last summer,-
"From whom? A. I think from Mr.
Evans, I don't know.
"Q. Of that $5,000 he retained -$8,000;
$8,000;
and handed you $2,000? A. yes, sir.
