Democrat and sentinel. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1853-1866, 1853-10-14
The Result.

Ta2 election is over, and victory again IS OUTS
gain have we fought and triumPhe5i and again sre
the principles Of Democracy sustained This result
has not been accomplished without struggle, and
the concs. o. hty-hree can ever be referred TO with
sasisfaction b. those who fought under the broad pen
non Of Democracy.
In Cambria we have obtained a triumph well-eara
ell and w5Ildesorvcd. The most uutiring and unscrs
pulous opposition was brought 10 bear against Us.
bat our friends were in the field and fought with zeal
as fervert as It was coumeadabe.
Al times dark clouds obscUroI our horizon, and a
gloom deep and threatening, hung over US and chilled
our efforts but we remembered ou1 duty 10 our cause
and ourselves and we emerged from the contest un
sca,had and undismayed. As a party we were com
pe'Ie3 10 contend against enemies Eithou. and Ish'
,----=ev-r lorrot iEe power they
!aghed they possessed and ueye. laIelei in their e-
e7tiaIs to accomplish our de.cat. Upto the latest
moment they were buoyant wiki The hope Of success
anI their overthrow came upon them ike clap OF
thunder. The opposition made against cur nominees
vas not, at all times. honest OF honorable. bu the
Sons Of Cambria treated with n2ertcl contempt, the
Whispered nuendo md open Islander, and noJly sys-
t.ineI the party and principles 0frhe people.
We have elected in Cambria county, eH;ira Dem
ocratic ticket. L. connection with The counties Of
Blair ard Huntington. we have elected Senator
and with the counties O.. Bedford and Fulton, two
members Of the House Of Representatives. This, ol
itself is sucien; 10 ii our hearts with rejoicing bl,
when we remember that in every po7tioa OF the state
the Democrats have been equally triurnI hant we feel
more than joy.
OR caud dates were nea in whom We had unlimi-
ted confidence and ,gl.a were deservedIy popular with
the people but we attribute TO the
correctness Of the principles Of the Democratic party
than to the personal popularity Of its nominees We
are glad however that the mautcs Of Office have Eel
upon men so worthy; glad that we can look forward
10 taer Official careers with feelings of unaIIoye-
pleasure, and glad that they have been well sustain
cd by the men VINO placed them in domination.
Many Democrats. whom We could name. have toll
ed ardentIy, zeao0=ly, and faithfully 10 acco.npsl
this result and we shall ever remember them with
gratitude. Their time and means were freely sacrf
csd for the success Of the cause and they spared ~
honorable efforts TO effect this victory such men de
serve well CT any party and so long as we can WELD
pen or cast vote that pen and that vote will be
ready toIewaTd them
Tie returns from different sections OF the State
come in 50 slowly that VIC can give no particulars
this week, but eGolghis known to warrant US in sta
ting that the entire State ticket is elected aua thai
the Senate and House are decidedly Democratic. We
shall probably be able to give the vote Of The State il
our next issue.
Here lhea IS end Of all the assertions Of our op
Ponents that the Democratic party was disorganized
and weakened by the great triumph Of last fall Oul
party was never harmonious than at present as
the result Of the late election abundantly proves and
50 long as liberty and equality admired SO long
viii Il remain harmonious.
