appliances of great and disciplined par

odds are too great, and we call on the Re

/ MA to organize for quiet but determined
canvass henceforth to the election. Only
let the light shine and the darkness will
cease to be felt If Dr. GihoA's book
alone were in the hands of every voter III
the State, it seems impossible that ma
jority would vote to sustain the author ct
the heartless and cruel letter to Prof. Sill
liman on the state of affairs in kapsas. =
1t is only among those who are ignorant
of the material facts, and who do not know
that Mr. Buchanan has himself appointed
t. as we'll rs retained in Office the master
spirits of the Border Ruthan robbers and
murderers including some whose indi-
vidual hands are red with the blood of
innocent Free State men-that his letter
to Si!liman can be deemed triumphant
Had one half the Republicans of Penn
SYLVAN taken TIE TRiBUNE during the
lest two or three years and lent it freely
to their neighlQrs, that letter would suf-
fee to insure the defs@t Of its aathor and
his partisans in the pending contest.
'"rhere is yet time to do the needed
work. If there be lack of faith or of
heart on the Republican side, it is con-
fined to the politicians--the People do
not share it. Gen. Packer is exceeding
ly vulnerable with regard to the Canal
jobs and sqHanderiRgs of the last ten
years in Pennsyl lya4ia, and a simple, brief
expose Of his connection with and profits
from these jobs would set THOUSANDS aG-
lively against him who are now indiifer-

coil on it's authors Whatever may be
Mr.. Wilmots individual notions of Po-
litical Economy, his election would be
quite other than Free-Trade triumph,
and this the authors of the cry that he is
a Frec-Trader do perfectly know. Mr.
Wilmot was nominated and is supported
as the champion of Slavery Restrictions,
and as such he stands or falls; but his
election would liberate Pennsylvania from
the tolls Of the political gamblers who, in
opposition 20 their own convictions as well
as hers, have dragged her behind the tri-
umphal car of Calhounism for most Of the
last thirteen years, merely that they might
riot in the spoils of Office. 1t is high time
th6t they were rebuked for this betrayal, |
and the opportunity now presents itself.

their reward: | should only have to COM

II. JENNINGS, Sheriff of
JUly 2l, 1887. Newton county Mo
Do the worst harAariars 90 farther than
that? Here is one, Isaac Bradley, who
asserts that he is a Freeman, arrested in
the pursuit of happiness, BY the Sheriff
of Newton County No, who does not pre-
tend that the prisoner has committed any
crime, or that he has any evidence that
he is other than a Freeman This Shor-
if, under the dcspotism which Slavery
everywhere creates, seizcs an innocent
man and throws him into Jail. Then he
calls on his master to come forward and
pay all cbayyes within three months, or
the man will be sold, SO that if he is not
now Slave, he sooa will be. Having
no master, as he asserts, it is impossible
that one should pay the jail fees, and
hence there is 10 escape for him.
And this is the institution which Presi-
dent Buchanan and his party have under
taken to force into Kansas. Will the
people submit to such an outrage?
