Republicans of Pennsytvania:
Yesterday you achieved q triumph at
the polls scarcely less important in its re-
suits than the victory Of srms- on the field
Of Gettysburg. The isiegrity. OF the
Union and the perpetuity of the Re
public were secured by the one; its per-
ma nent peace and future glory are inscred
by the other. 80
Your verdict thus prononsced viii be
recorded by the American people in No
vember next in most emphatic condem-
nation Of the party false to Tie country in
the hour Of its peril, false to liberty and
the rights of man., Every lover OF peace
aud good order congratulates you on your
achievements in stripping such an ergani-
ration Of all power 10 iufict future Injury
on the country. Henceforth il must sin /
under the same obloqny that rests upon
the Tories Of the Revolution and the
Federslists Of the war Of 1912. Entrust-

butsement ofthe Republic Confded in

it exerted all its energies for, the perpetu-
ity of human bondage. Protesting reyer.
ence for free speech and freedom Of the
press, it silenced both with bowie knife and
revolver wherever it had supreme control
Assuming to be the guardian Of the rights
Of man, it bacame the champion Of human
bondage and stood sentinel with bsyinp
bloodhounds to seize and return the fee
ing fugitive; and at last, dissatisfied with
the result Of q fair election, Il raised il
hand against the life Of the Republic, and
'Samson-like, would have buried itself in
the ruins Of the grapdest temple, Of liberty
ever reared by human hands.
II is betting that party Scared BY

outraged aud whose dearest rights il ha,
trampled in the dust.

Once More TO the Front!

The Seymour party staked their hopes
Of success in the Presidential election on
carrying at least two Of the great States
that voted on Tuesday last Pennsylvania
was claimed by them with great confd-
ence; Indiana they deemed certain by a
majority that should make the State sure
for them in November; and they had
strong expectations OF carrying Ohio, or
at least reducing the majority so low as to
make that State a battle ground for the
Presidential contest. The absolute neces.
sity OF capturing Penusy and In
diana was so apparent that frauds unpar
alleled in political history were devised
by the Democratic managers in those
States, BY which 10 secure an apparent
majority. La Pennsy lvania fraudulent
naturalizations aud the importation Of
bruisers from New York aud Baltimore
were rosoried to for the purpose of making
Democratic minority that could not be
obtained from the people of nosylvania,
but the very magnitude aud publicity Of
the projected swindle caused its defeat
That great State has given such Repub.
lican majority ms to make its vote for
Grant and Colfax u matter OF certainty.
la Indiana the Democratic leaders
played the game Of fraud more shrewdly
ana successfully than 10 Pennsylvania;
but their victory, ii they have achieved
one, is too slight to beue6t them ia No
vember. Ii the fnal result had been left
doubtful by tho results OF Tuesdays cleo
iions 10 the four States that voted on
Tuesday, Grant would have polled lar
ger vote 10 Indiana than was cast for our
candidates then, but the certainty these
elections give OF bis success IN November
will add TO his strength aud dispirt the
opposition. The Democrats Of Indiana
can not, or at least will not, spend their
money SO freely on hopeless contest as
they did when inspired by the hope of
sezIng on the Government Of the State,
aud, ut the same time, Of gaining vic.
tory that would settle the contest tor the
Presidency 10 their favor.
They know that Grant is to be elected,
aud that however indiana goes, that event
can not be prevented. We know that he
can be elected witout our assistance, but
the Republicans Of Indiana can not afford
to lose their share of the glories of the
coming triumph. We must participate in
the honor Of establishing that era OF peace
and good will in our troubled land, which
is to follow the transfer Of the illustrious
hero Of Appomattox to the Presidency
Let US, then, go brayely aud energetcally
to work for the great aud decisive con-
test OF November, aud see that Indiana
rolls up a majority for Graut worthy OF
the historic renown Of the Stste.-( Jour
ual.

The October Elections.

The States voting on Tuesday (ssys
the JcurnsD present An unbroksn Se-
publican front, and assure the election Of
Grant and Coifsx in November by .
sweeping triumph. Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania spoke-so decidedly that the result in
those two States was known the day after
the election. In Indiana, the majority
being less, gave some slight room for
doubt 10 specifically disposed persons, but
that night Of doubt is passed; the day
light shines through the result, and this
morning We are enabled to present re
turns 'frem every county in the State but
one, (forty two Of them ofhcial), showing,
beyond reasonable doubt. that Conrad
Baker has been elected Governor of the
State Of Indiana by a majority Of about
! 200. The majority on the balance Of
the Republican State ticket will probably
be thousand larger than on Governor.
The Legislature is overwhelming Re.
publican-our majority on joint ballot
being about twenty-five. The only gain
the Democracy have 10 boast Of in this
State is the apparent election Of Mr. voor.
bees, in the Sixth District. We say zap.
parent for the total want Of registration
in two townships in that District which
gave Mr.. Voorhees, large msjorities, de
stroys all his pretentions to an election,
and insures the seat in Congress ffonl
that District to his competitor, Major
Garter. The Democracy then have gain
ed nothing in this State save a diminu
alto n Of the Republican majorities at the
past three State elections. And who does
not know how this reduction was accom-
plished? A gigantic system Of COLOMBIA
lion from the Ku Klux communities OF
Kentucky, lavish use of an enormous
corruption fund ,--theso and other like
sxpedients explain our reduced majority
There has been no faltering. no assertions
from the ranks Of the sieadfast Republi.
can party Of Indiana. The Democracy
made Indiana fierce battlefield and are
routed. Indiana stands fast in the Re-
publican column. Indiana has sustained
her faithful Governor Conrad Baker.
Mr.. Thomas A. Hendricks has. appealed
to the people for endorsement, aud re.
ceived rebuke instead, and his name dis
appears from the Senatorial roster on aud
after March 4th, 1869. A trusty aud
patriotic Republican takes his place
Exit MIR. Hendricks-a courteous gentle
nan, plausible talker, mild mannered,
pleasing politician. But be "ncver en-
tered the army himself, nor counselea
any body else to-" therefore he vacates a
certain seat in the Senate for some other
geutlemsn who sympatbized and acted
with the loyal people of the country in
their struggle with rebellion. ,'a
Indiana could not afford Democratic
supremacy yet, and has therefore declined
to declare in favor of change. 10 any

side. -.------.------r~s
But the most outrageous frauds we're
perpetrated by professed Republicans, in
league with the Copperheads throughout
the District, in order to defeat the Re.
publican nominee for Congress. Early
in the day bogus tickets were largely
circulated, comprising all the names on
the Republican ticket, substituting only
for the name of Geo., w. Julian that Of
John 5. Reid, the Copperhead candidate
for Congress. Very soon it was dis
covered that these tickets were printed at
the Office Of the Palladium, professed
Republican paper, whose publisher b
w. Davis, for years, openly hostile to Mr.
Julian, had, this season, been protesting
to support him, aad claiming and recciv-
ing some credit for SO doing. Davis al
first positively denied printing these
tickets, but the proof becoming overwhelm.

justification said that John Yaryan had

out the county, if not the, Distri ct, and

Radicals. But they we're no doubt used,
ms they we're intended, for another pur-
pose. We learned that at the northern
precinct, where the great majority OF
votes were cast, Julian only fell behind
the State ticket bout 40 Votes, and that

that If certain pAfties shoald be arrested

the freedom Of the press and Of speech

Of six Of it's members for the. arrest Of

crat press was attacked by two drunken
soldiers aud protected by the Indiana
Legion from destruction, the threat was
made that if the ohce was again disturb,
ed, that the leading men of the Union
party should pay the penalty, and that
