DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
Auditor General ft. E. Wright.
Treasurer A. L. Tildeu.
FREELAND, SEPTEMBER 10, 1891.
ALL VOTERS SHOULD SUPPORT Tills.
We believe that the right of free, honest and
secret ballot is the right preservative of all
political rights. We approve the largest meas
ure of ballot reform, and believe the whole
advantages of the Australian ballot system
should be secured to the electors of Pennsyl
vania. The ballot bill enacted by the last Gen
eral Assembly was a step in the right direction,
but it needs to be supplemented by measures
to protect the secrecy of the ballot and to se
cure reform in registration. To this end and j
for these purposes only we favor the assem
bling of a Constitutional Convention. — Demo- ,
cratic State Platform.
MONDAY was Labor Day, and its
observance in the several States where
it has been set apart as a legal holi
day indicates its growing popularity
with the masses. It comes at a most
appropriate period of the year and in
many cities and towns the celebra
tions were befitting those to whom it
is dedicated. Each succding year
brings it nearer to the front us a day
of national festivities, and Monday
last showed that tailoring people have
a proper appreciation of their holiday.
THEUE seems now to he some hope
for the Constitutional Convention,
since the Democrats have declared in
favor of the call. By making this a
prominent question in the campaign
the party can add to the strength of
the ticket. There is a large portion
of the rank and tile in the Republican
party which favors the convention,
and if the opportunity to gather these
voters in is embraced they will sup
port the Democratic ticket all the way
through. Wright, Tilden and the
Constitutional Convention will he the
winners.
THE Philadelphia Press is doing
the Democratic party inestimable j
benefit by its objections to tlie re-'
moval of the thieving mercantile ap
praisers in that city. City Treasurer
Wright wants them dismissed at once,
but Auditor General McCamant, their
companion in crime, merely serves
them with an order of suspension,
and the Press comes to their aid with
the lame plea that the voluminous
evidence has not been read by Mc-
Camant, hence a summary dismissal
would not be just. The Press has a
habit of clinging to party thieves
until the penitentiary doors open for
them, then it denounces their crimes
with a vigor that is amusing.
TRUE to its fearless attitude upon
public questions tlie Democracy has de
clared for a Constitutional Convention,
one that will give to the voters of this
(State the advantage of the Australian
ballot system. There is no half-way
indorsement in the delegates' words.
They favor it and they say so. They
had no Matt Quay to hold them in
check and dictate their actions. They
assembled for a purpose which was
fulfilled, and were unhampered by
bosses whose political lives depend
upon the continuation of the present
methods of voting. The citizens de
mand a convention in order to remedy
ballot reform defects, and the Demo
crats are the only ones who will give
it to them.
MCKINLEY, the author of the hill to
legalize robbery, has commenced barn
storming Ohio, and would like to have
the voters of the Buckeye State elect
him as Governor. In a recent speech
he pointed with pride to the fact that
his bill removed fifty-five million dol
lars of taxes from the people by ad
mitting sugar free. Everybody re
members that the price of sugar took
a tumble when that clause of the
tariff' act went into effect last April,
and this free trade section of the law
is the only portion Republicans dare
discuss. If McKinley had continued
on the right road and used his influ
ence in having the other hundreds of
millions removed he could be not only
Governor of Ohio, but tlie next Presi
dent of the United States.
THE platform of Pennsylvania Demo
crats this year is one upon which any
citizen might feel proud to stand. It |
deals directly with the issues concern
ing the people of this State, and its [
demands do not play second fiddle to
national questions like those of the G. j
O. P. The officials to he voted for ]
are Auditor General and Treasurer.
Those have nothing to do with the
tariff, the silver question, the fiscal
policy of the government or such, hut
they have much to do with the econom
ical administration of tlie people's
taxes, and bringing to light the horde
of plunderers who are looting the
State. It is a grand declaration,
worthy of a united and confident
party, and bears a most remarkable
contrast to the paper set forth by
their opponents.
Ex-Statc Treasurer William Livsey
ir missing, lie is wanted as a witness
by the committee that is investigating
tlie accounts of the Republican robbers
in this Stute. A despatch from Milwau
kee yesterday says that there is every
reason to believe that lie is in hiding in
that city at the house of his daughter.
He is the cashier of the .State Treasury.
The "Ledger" Indorse* tlie riutform.
After the Republican State Convention
had adjourned the TRIBUNE republished
a lengthv editorial from the Philadel
phia Ledger, in which the platform of
its party was severely arrainged. The
Ledger rejected with scorn that docu
ment, and bitterly criticised the pre
sumption of those who adopted it. It
called the attention of its readers to the
party's cowardice in dealing with the
questions of the day, and the rebuke
produced a decided sensation, as the
Ledger is justly considered the most con
servative Republican paper in the United
States. Its review of the Democratic
platform is in keeping with the indepen
dent spirit so opportunely displayed a
few weeks since, and we present it in
full as an example of how Republican
editors would speak if they were free
from Quay ism and Federal patronage:
At the Harrisburg Democratic State
Convention the proceedings were much
more to the point, much more business
like and direct to the all important home
subjects now engrossing public attention
throughout the commonwealth, than
were the proceedings of the Republican
State Convention held a few weeks ago.
The greatest prominence is given to the
condition of our State Revenue and State
Treasury laws, and to the discreditable
practices under them in the Auditor
General's and State Treasury Depart
ments —which have scandalized our com
monwealth everywhere, and have cost
to the State the probable loss of a million
and a half of dollars. The Democratic
resolutions on these points are leveled
straight at the right targets. They are
easy to understand as to what they
actually say and what they really mean;
and they are free (except in one general
resolution and one personal to Mr. Quay),
from the interfering and distracting in
fluences of the national and personal
politics which so greatly obscured and
almost pushed out of sight—in the Re
publican platform—these all-important
and immensely superior State issues.
The resolutions arraign and condemn
the Auditor General and State Treasurer
for the misconduct of their offices by
which the State and people have suffer
ed enormous loss and great scandal has
been cast on the State—and pledge their
nominees to correct these abuses—to re
form these practices—and "to make such
investigations and give such information
to the Jaw department of the common
wealth as will aid in bringing to punish
ment those guilty of malfeasance in
office."
The nominees of the convention—
Kobert K. Wright, a distinguished law
yer of Allentown, for Auditor General,
and A. L. Tilden, of Erie, a prominent
farmer and business man, for State
Treasurer—are men of marked ability
and perfectly clean character, and have
been selected—just as General Gregg
was selected for Auditor General by the
Republican State Convention —not be
cause either of them sought for or desir
ed the nomination—but because the
nomination sought them as belonging to
the style and type of men that are in
the strongest degree needed for the
offices named—and which are at this
time imperatively demanded by all
opponents of the "spoils" system of
State government.
The issue is now joined, upon which
the voters of the State are to judge and
decide in November. It is an important
issue for them—whether tlie Revenue
and Finance and Treasury laws and
system of the State shall continue to
exist, and to be administered as if they
were contrived for the benefit and pro
fit of individual pockets—or whether
their rightful and sole purpose is tiie
service, convenience and advantage of
tlie people of the State.
The idea has come to prevail that the
service and advantage of tlie common
wealth is a secondary matter. This is
seen in the theory and practices con
nected with the administration of the
Auditor General's and Treasury offices—
and in the Mercantile Appraisers' offices.
It is seen in the miscellaneous jumble of
resolutions adopted by tlie Republican
State Convention, in which our vitally
important State affairs are subordinated
to puffy personal resolutions and far
off matters that are altogether irrelevant
to State exigencies, as revealed by tlie
Bardsley and Mercantile Tax Appraiser
exposures. It is seen in the cold and
formal letter of Auditor General Mc-
Camant concerning the serious charges
against his Mercantile License Appraiser
appointees. And it is visible in all the
half-hearted and halting expressions
touching these Revenue and Treasury
exposures—and in the absence of such
clear, strong, direct and energetic denun
ciations of the individual offenders as
would give some sort of earnest promise
that the "spoils" system of Revenue
and Treasury Government is to be put to
death in Pennsylvania.
It is indispensably necessary that the
"spoils" system shall be struck bv a
crushing defeat in Pennsylvania. It is
for the voters of the .State now to judge
—now that the issue is joined as to the
deliverances in the resolutions of both
Conventions—which party and which
nominees are most likely to strike tlie
blow that will defeat and stamp out the
system. Is it tlie organization that
shows a disposition to confuse and he
little the vital issues in tlie State canvass
—or is it that opposing party which goes
at the important work in the clearest
most direct, earnest and energetic
way?
From tlm Democratic State Platform.
We arraign and condemn tlie Repub
lican Legislature for having refused to
enforce the constitution by appropriate
legislation; for having failed to pass
honest and equitable apportionment
hills, as required liy the constitution; for
having ignored the demands of labor for
relief by law; for having denied the
righteous popular demand for such laws
as would distribute the burdens of public
taxation equally upon all classes of
property, and for having refused to re
form long-existing abuses in the mer
. cantile appraisement laws, as recom
mended by the Democratic. Executive
in 1885.
We arraign and condemn the Repub
lican Auditor General for having per
mitted John Bardsley, tlie Republican
Treasurer of Philadelphia city and
county, to embezzle $500,000 of -State tax
collected by him, which he was per
mitted to retain for a long period after
the same was due and payable.
We arraign and condemn the Repub
lican Auditor General for having per
mitted John Bardsley, the Republican
i Treasurer of Philadelphia city anil
county, to embezzle more than $360,000
of State license moneys collected by him,
which lie was permitted to retain for a
long period after tlie same was due and
payable.
We arraign and condemn tlie Repub
lican Auditor General for having con
spired with John Bardsley, tlie Repub
lican Treasurer of Philadelphia city and
county, to appoint and retain corrupt
Mercantile Appraisers, who abused their
office for their own private pecuniary
advantage, robbed the State of its just
revenues, and imposed upon the Com
monwealth hundreds of thousands of
dollars of needless costs, and we demand
the dismissal of the Mercantile Apprais
ers of Philadelphia.
We arraign and condemn the Repub
lican Auditor General for having con
spired with John Bardsley, the Repub
lican Treasurer of Philadelphia city and
county, to speculate in public advertising
and for having received from the puh
lishers of the same bribes to influence
their official conduct in placing such ad
vertisements. i
We arraign and condemn the Repub- f
lican State Treasurer for wilfully and 1
knowingly permitting John Bardsley to
retain in his possession over $1,000,1100
of money collected for and owing to the j
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, by rea
son of which dereliction a large portion
of the money has been lost to the people. (
We arraign and condemn the Repub- \
lican State Treasurer for having con- -
spired with John Bardsley, the Repub
lican Treasurer of Philadelphia, to secure I
to him the payment of $425,000 of the <
public school fund, long in advance of i 1
the usual time, and when Bardsley was I
already known to the State Treasurer to | -
be a defaulter for over $500,000, which i
sum thus improvident!)' paid to Bardsley ; j
was by him embezzled, to the loss of 1
Philadelphia city and the shame and : }
scandal of the State.
We arraign and condemn the Repub- 1
lican State Treasurer and the Republican
Auditor General for having conspired to ~
pay to John Bardsley, the Republican
Treasurer of Philudcldhia city and coun
ty, on December 30,1890, $150,000 out of
the State Treasury, ostensibly on account i
of Philadelphia county's share of the |
personal property tax; hut actually be- j i
fore that tax had been paid into the j 1
State Treasury, and when John Bardsley ]
was already a defaulter and embezzler i
to the amount of $622,013.11.
Sweep Out the ThieveH.
If there was ever a State that needed ,
to he released from the grasp of a party ;
that State is Pennsylvania. The most
gigantic robbery of modern times is be
ing disclosed by the Bardsley Investi- ;
gating Committee, of Philadelphia, and {
every witness examined sheds additional
light upon the stealings of Republican i
officials. From the State Treasurer '
down to the constables conspiracy after '
conspiracy has been unearthed, and the 1
end is yet far from being reached, j 1
Neither can this end be attained while !
Republicans occupy the offices of Treas
urer and Auditor General. The party
will not allow any further prying into | j
the doings of its men than can be
avoided. It is to its interest to smother i
every attempt made to fathom the steal. I
Committees may make feints at probing, |
but nothing like what should be is given
to the public.
Enough, however, has leaked out to
let the citizens of Pennsylvania know |
that they have been systematically ,
robbed of millions, yet it is impossible j
to ever discover the whole amount or 1
bring the thieves to justice unless the
Democratic candidates for Treasurer
and Auditor General are voted into j
office. Then the people can rely upon
seeing the misdeeds of their present <
officials laid bare and without any at- !
tempt at concealment. The powers of |
the Governor and his Attorney General
to push these criminals are limited. I
Their opponents hold the key to the
situation while the offices to be voted
for in November are in the hands of the
Republicans.
Elect Wright and Tilden! It is a
question of business, not politics. It
means dollars saved to eyerv taxpayer.
If adherence to party is more important
than the proper expenditure of your
money, then vote for Gregg and Mor
; rison, who are figure-heads for an or
[ ganization led and controlled by robbers
) like Quay, McCamant, Kennedy, Marsh,
f Drew, Roney and others who should he
keeping company with "Honest John"
r Bardsley.
