THE STANDARD.
GEORGETOWN, NOVEMBER q, 1870.
THE ELECTION.


1t is now ascertained beyond doubt,
that Gen. Harrison is elected President.
Since our last number was printed, we
have received conclusive news from New
York. The majority for the Harrison
electors is, (according to the New Worldly
l2.7O3.
We regret to say that the official re-
turns from Pennsylvania show Harris
on majority of 343. We cbeerfuIly sub
nit to the will of the majority, when it is
fairly expressed; but by late developments
we arc led 10 suspect that in Pennsylva-
MIA at least, the voice Of the majority has
been frauduIenlly smothered. PhladeI-
phia is the home Of the trained gang Of
"pipe layers through whom, for several
years past, the United States Bank and
its dependents have controlled the cleo
tions in that and the neighboring cities;
and we may reasonably suppose that they
have not been idle at this important cris-
is in influencing the election in their
own State.
We cannot entertain the belief, how.
ever, that our opponents have carried the
election of their candidate entirely by
illegal votes. Such a belief would ere
ate strong doubts Of the stability of our
government, which we are not yet willing
10 harbor. Other and various causes
have been made to cooperate in bringing
about this result. For months and years
past reckless money-geters and unpfinci
pied Oilicc-seekers have been acting in
concert to accomplish their selfish ends.
The former, who control the CURRENCY,
have been industrious in causing pres
sure and disasters among business men
while the latter have been as industri.
Gus in directing attention to public off l..
GERS as the cause of the wide spread evil.
By their efforts, we doubt not, many hon
est and unsuspecting voters have been
led to support them. These, we believe
are too honest TO continue such support
after the motives Of those who have in
fuenced them shall have become more
apparent; aud apparent to every one they
will become before they have been long
in office. Most of those who are now to
come into power, being strangers to eve-
ry patriotic motive, have nothing to grail
fy but grovelling passions of avarce and
selfish ambition. And as they have
made no pledges nor declarations of prin-
cipIes before the election, they will con-
slider themselves at liberty to adopt such
measures as will best subselve these
passions. What those measures will be,
time must determine. Gen. Harrison
said, before the election, "WaiCh the
government" The suggestion, by what
ever motive prompted, is a good one,
and it behooyes every well.wisher Of his
country to he anattentiVe observer Of the
movements the new government"

SALT RIVER BOAT.

The wings, having just come down
Salt River, are very kind in offering the
democrats their boat to 90 up. We
would not deprive them so much as to
accept the offer, as they have not provi-
ded themselves with any other in which
to sail on the Stormy ocean of LegisIa
ton. Besides that, the boat is no longer
fit for inland navigation, much less for the
ocean. But there is no alternative for the
federal wings; they are about to com.
mence their voyage in it, without rudder
or compass, or any settled course, and
with all hands aspiring to be pilots
They have been timely warned of the
perls which now threaten them. "The
blood be upon their own heads, we wash
our hands of it,"

Cincinnati, Nov. i3, 1910.
Amos KENDALL, Esq.
Dear Sir-lt is with pleasure we en-
brace the opportunity, which your visit
to our city affords us, TO express our sat,
isfacion at the manner in which you dis
charged your public duties, while an off
Ger of the General Government; and our
high regard for your character as a man,
and as an able fearless advocate and de.
fender of democratic principles.
Wishing to manifest this regard for
your character in a public manner, and
in way that will afford the Democrats OF
Hamilton County an opportunity to pre-
sent in person, their respects, we beg
leave to tender to you public dinner, at
such timeas your health and convenience
will permit.
Respectfully,
Your obedent Servants,

CINCINNATI Nov. nth 1910.
Gentlemen:
have had the pleasure TO receive your
letter of yesterday, rendering me the hon
or Of public dinner, as an evidence Of
the appreciation with which you have wit
messed my conduct as public officer,
and an advocate of democratic prnci.
pies.
Such a testimonial, at such a time
from such place--and from such n
source-is peculiarly gratifying. Being
addressed to one who neither holds, nor
aspires to Office or power, and without the
means to reward, even in hope, those
who speak well Of him, it cannot be 9TH
erwise than disnterested and sincere.
Under these circumstances, my regret is
the stronger that it is not in nv power to
accept your kind invitation. Suddenly
called to Kentucky by private business,
and under the necessity of returning to
Washington as soon as possible, sickness
alone induced me to stop at your beauti-
full and fourishing city; and, as soon as
able, must resume my journey.
The sickness which brought me among
you, however, shall always consider one
Of the most fortunate incidents of my life:
not so much from the personal gratifica,
ton ] have received, as form the as
surance it has given me that the democ-
raCy of this country is neither annihilated
nor discouraged. What, though our ban.
ner be now traded in the dnsr we
will soon fling aloCl its glorious folds,
md, drawing around MS, by the power of
truth aud the rectitude of our conduct,
all those who are sincerely devoted To
the rights and happiness of man, we will
march on. conquering aud to conquer,
Aud in our hou,s 0f triumph. instead of
exnlling over aud insulting nnr defeated
we will make them feel by
the most scrupulous respect for their
