Time and time again the Republi can county ticket has been within easy range of victory, and time aud time again it has been defeated by Republican votes simply because the voters "could see no hope" in the face of a Democratic majority. That false notion has cost the party many good county officials, and as long as Republicans view the situa tion in that light the result cannot be otherwise. There is a remedy | and the time for its application has | arrived. If every Republican in the county would vote his ticket and work for it, the result would be as surprising as it would be gratifying. "Where is the Republican whose in fluence cannot secure one vote? There may be exceptional cases,, but Miey are few, and where one man would fail there are others who j would make up the deficiency. Did you ever give this matter a thought? If every Republican would put his shoulder to the wheel there would be no Democratic majority to loom up like an insurmount-ab'e barrier in the pathway leading to Republican victory. It is a duty that every Republi can owes his part}' and himself to stick to his ticket and turn his back on that Democratic bugaboo ma jority. If this is practiced by our Republican friends we will scon lead to yictory. Victory in The Air. A magnificent victory for the Re publican ticket is in the air; the people are awakening to the fact that the grand old party of free soil, free speech and free men has ever been faithful to its promises. It promised a revision of the taritT and continued protection to American labor at Chicago, and Harrisburg, and the reverberating guns on College Hill, told how faithfully those promises have been kept. It also promised to restore the inequal ities existing between gold and sil ver and that promise has been faith* fully kept; it promises a free ballot and an honeat man count in every nook and corner of the Republic and it goes without saying that such a guarantee will be duly spread upon the statute book upon the reassem bling of cengress. And last but not leaet the Republican party of Pennsylvania stands pledged to the equalization of taxation and that promise sacredly made will he sacredly kept. Senator Delamater leaves no room for doubt upon this question; his language is clear, de cisive and emphatic ; we quote his exact words: "If I am elected Governor I will make it my busi ness to see that every promise made in that platform, (referring to the plattorm adopted at Harrisburg, June 25, 1890), is carried out." Contrast his manly utrerances with the slippery, evasive and non-com mittal language of his opponent and it will convince any man not blind ed by partisan zeal that the welfare of the commonwealth can best be served by placing George Wallace Delaniater on guard. His election means continued prosperity for the toiling millions of Penrsylvania,. and he who earns his bread by the sweat of his brow should not for a single moment forget it. T&lce The AyrgTCfeMive. There are times in all great cam paigns when the candidates of the majority party, who are almost in variably subjected to false charges, shall defend themselves. Senator Delamater has not escaped the usual experience—that of Hartranft, Hoyt and Beaver—but unlike these gen tlemen, he has defended himself in every manly way, and in ways so convincing that only those will now condemn who really wish to do it for purposes of their own. The de fence has been' complete at every point. Less than three weeks can now be given to the canvass, and the time is ripe for a bold Republi can assault all along the line. Like the Confederate lines in the last days of the war, the Democratic lines but represent an egg shell, which when pierced shows only hollowness within. The egg shel* can be readily broken, and the time has come to bfeak it. Let us now quit defending and assail. Let us assail those who, under cover of insincere excuses, are striking at the Republican party, and in so doing let us remind all that we are fighting for the party and its princi ples, and not lor persons or simply against persons. Let us show that the various side committees in Phila delphia and elsewhere have all been organized, as they have, by the Free Traders—that nearly all the money backing them comes from importers, who are ever dangerous enemies of j the American system of Protection. I The only exception to this general | fact is the attitude of the million aire, Mr. Wharton Barker, who asks the people of Pennsylvania to shoulder his disappointed ambitions. Let us show Pattison in Lis true colors—bis true political colors, for personal assault is never justified. When Governor lie served but half of the then Democratic party—its Free Trade faction—and devoted all of his energies to the crushing of Randall. Me did this at a cost of half a million to the people of the State. Even worse than this, he was the avowed enemy of every patriotic impulse for the benefit of the Union soldiers. He was harsh and unjust to our State charities, and in the persuit of that demagogu ery which has been ever characteris tic of his political conduct, he tried to smirch and destroy the soldiers' orphan schools in advance of their )e«al limitation. He was a narrow Governor, and insulted th<> intelli gence of our people by pretending to restore the only folly of the Jef fersonian period in his walk to the Capitol. He is top narrow in all of his views to be the Governor of a great State. Republicans of Pennsylvania, the time has come to assail! The de fense has been complete Now for a chaige along the line, and a victory will follow worthy of the courage displayed. WASHINGTON, Oct. 13. —Justice Miller, died to-night at eight min utes of eleven o'clock, without a struggle, and apparently without paiu. Besides Mrs. Miller and her son Irvine, there was present Dr. Cook, J- \V. Woodworth, an old friend of Justice Miller, who had just arrived from Omaha, the family servants and Chief Clerk McKenney, of the Supreme Court. ISo arrangements for the funeral will be wade until to«morrow, but it is certain that his remains will be removed to his home at Keokuk, lowa, where they will be interred in the family burying grounds.
