THE PENNSYLVANIA SET
TIER.

There is no longer shadow of doubt that the
Wings have carried Pennsy acknowledgements,
Congress, gislature-everyhing
This is an astounding Revolution. The party
which lives on its empty professions of Democ-
racy has never been beaten in the State contest
preceding Presidential Election. Even when
Gen. Harrison carried the State, in the tornado
of 1910, his friends were beaten nearly 5000
in the preceding State election.
This is not a surprise, though it battles nearly
all calculations. Rarely or never has there been
more determined contest or q fuller vote. The
poll for Clay and Polk may have exceeded it,
but we think no other The official patronage,
State and National, was all on one side, and ex-
ered to the utmost. 1t was rendered potent by
the undoubting confidence of ability to retain it,
without which patronage is of little avail. Down
to the close of the poll, there was not Cass
man in or out of the State who manifested a
doubt OF the result.
But there is no longer room for doubt or mis-
giving. Gov. Johnston is elected, and the whole
aspect of affairs changed. Pennsylvania has
taken her place at the head of the Wing array
the flagship of the Wing armada in the great
contest at hand. She is as morally certain to
vote for Gen. Taylor as any State in the Union
after Kentucky, and we think the majority is
more likely to exceed 10000 than to fall below
5000. Next 10 New York, she will probably
give Old lack his largest State majority. Fol-
the patronage SO powerfully welded against us
in the late contes: now virtually changes hands
the certainty of Wing ascendancy next Win
ter in the State, the almost certainty OF like
change in the Nation, transforms everything
Hope will prove more powerful in the pending
contest than Despair.-.M Y. Tribune

THE SPEECHES..

We have never heard, in Vermont or else
where, four speeches in succession that would
even fairly begin to compare with the four speech
cs of the Wing State Convention for eloquence,
keen sarcasm, felicity of illustration, strength of
argument, and severity of rebuke. The Wings
of Vermont aye, Vermont hersclf-may be
justly proud of such sons. Could every Free
man of the State hear these identical speeches
we would venture TO predict another 1910 victo.

were we to print paper for you alone, VIC would
cheedully consult your particular wishes. Our

As to the daily for few days past, we have this
TO say: the Legislature has not seen fit to trans

expecting TO derive benefit from it, say TO al
of them, that there has been no body of men, and
no party in this country, which has formally and
sternly resisted the progress of the slave power
but the Wings" Daniel Webster.
And what is more, so long as the so called
Free Soil party adheres to Martin Van Buren,
the wing party is the only one which cen con
sistently resist the Slavocrncy. Remember, this
was significant among Mr. Van Buren's three
positions in his letter accepting the Brffalc
nomination.:
