to the friends of Constitution preserved
inviolate-to those in favor of a strict
enforcement of the Laws. Let that victo-
~, then, be decisive and overwhelming.
Let it be remembered, also, that, at the
proper fine, the Peoples Party attempted
to secure Union and Harmony in the Pol
| itics of Cambria county by proposing the
nomination Of Union Ticket, composed
! of an equal number of Democrats ana
Republicans. This proposition, however,
was rejected by intriguing Loco Foco
/ demagogues, and we now have no alterna-
! tive but to vote for our own men.
In the present crisis of our country S
affairs, partisan contests of whatsoever
kind are to be regretted. Until the war
be over, but one feeling should actuatc
the heart Of the loyal North, namely. devo-
tion to the Union. Party issues should
DC cast aside, party platforms and distinc-
tions obliterated, and we all, with one
accord, rally on a common platform for
our country's good. That contrary state
of affairs from this should exist III this
County is due only to the efforts OF the
leaders of the Democratic party. The
Peoples Party, with characteristic patri-
otism and liberalty, one year ago sugges-
ted "Union for the sake of the Union =
but this proposition was listened to with
closed ears by the Loco-Foco leaders
Now is the time to rebuke--to slgnally
rcbuke and punish-these same contempt
ible, paltry, political tricksters for their
narrow -mindedness 1t can be done-it
should be done.
Our Ticket is oue that should commend
itself to your hearty support. The men
composing it are knoacn to be competent
and loyal, and no blot stains the escutch-
con of any of them. Honest and capable
to the last man, will you not render them
your undivided countenance and support?
THOMAS +. COCHRAN and WILLIAM
S. Ross, our candidates for Auditor Gen
eral and Surveyor General, are men of
the right stamp-men who have been tried
and found not wanting. Their triumph
will be triumph Of Right against Wrong,
and signal rebuke to doughfacery and
toryism For--remember the fact-:heir
opponents are Breckenridge sympathizcrs,
and opposcrs of a stern and vigorous pros
ecution of the war against Treason and
Traitors Slenker and Barr. the Demo
cratic nominees for these important Offices,
are mere creatures in the hands Of Frank
W. Hughes, Chairman Of the Democratic
State Central Committee-a man who has
| been proccn to be in direct and open SYM
pathy with the Traitors of the South. Men
| of Cambria in voting for these Loco-Fo-
co candidates know that you are atfording
aid and encouragement to the Rebels, and
your votes will be counted as so many
| Rebel adherents in the North. Can you
afford to support them, then, and thus
probably prolong the terrible war that is
ROW desolatng our country? As you
value your Liberty-no!
Hon. LOUIS W. HALL is our candidate
! for State Senator. Three years ago the
| People sent him to Harrisburg by an
overwhelming majority, and now they will
do SO again His Senatorial career Is
rajAt-his record in that body, which is
open to all, is alike creditable to himself
and to his constituency. Intelligent
| faithful, bold and fearless, he has made
himself name that will not soon die
while such was the esteem in which he
was held by his fellow Senators that he
was chosen to preside over their delibera
tons during last winters session. His
reelection now is essentially important, by
reason that at the coming session of the
Legislature United States Senator must
be chosen to succeed Hon. David Wilmot
! Bill Bigler IS again Il candidate for this
latter office, and the Democratic nominee
for State Senator-Mr. Halls opponent
Is pupil aud devout follower Of that un
principled, weakened dcmaSogue.-
Freemen vote for Mr.. Hall-apart from
his own worth, by SO doing you will hell
send a good and true man to tie halls o
the National Legislature for the next ST,
wears, and thus defeat the unholy aspira
