Demoeraiie Primarv EIeeiion.

From time immemorial it has been the
custom Of the Democracy to meet in
primary meeting and either by ballot
or by delegates previously elected by
ballot to choose candidates for the
snffrages of the people at the coming
fall elections Next Saturday is the
day fixed by the last convention oI
Return Judges in this county for the
holding Of the Primary Election. The
candidates TO be selected are for As.
sembly, Treasurer, Commissioner and
Auditcr-all important offices. And,
while the candidates whose names are
offered for these several positions are
all good men, we have not one word
to say in favor of either OF them but,
as the editor Of the organ of the party
in this county, and feeling the great
importance OF a good ticket this fall,
We 90 urge on our Democratic friends
TO go to the election on Saturday next
and by the exercise Of their Judgment
to select the best men for the places
to be filled-in order that we can
enter the approaching campaign with
q ticket in support OF the State ticket
that will contribute 10 the success of
the great Democratic party in the
State.
The issue 10 full of interest to patri-
ots. 1t is not merely a contest 10 de-
eide which man shall be elected, or
what party shall succeed, but q ques.
ton of constitutional liberty and the
independence of the people. Since
the organization of this State, and
since Pennsylvania elects her Govern
ors, never has there bsen so important
a contest as this, That we have been
betrayed, disgraced and outraged by
ireebooters and gambling specula-
tors in the gubernatorial chair for
nine years, cannot be denied; but
while we felt that the excitement of
the war and the rapid succession of
events would in a measure cover the
bad deeds Of Curtin, we cannot hope
that tho much greater crimes and
blunders of Gcary can be overlooked,
and our total disgrace averted. We
will not now allnde to them. Gearys
crimes have been such that ev.
cry honest Pennsylvania is CON-
PEELED to blush at them. Democrats
he vigilant, be firm, determined, in
the right. Commence the canvass
with spirit on Saturday; follow it up;
keep the Democratic heart alive TO
the issue. Let not our law and Union
loving Commonwealth be again placed
in false position by your careless.
ness The whole American continent
is looking to Pennsylvania with pain.

tutional liberty everywhere are pray.
ing for our success. The friends of
despotism are seeking our permanent
downfall, which must and will come

cry Democrat feel this, and every

was 1870, or in other words, the only
dollar we know anything about in this
country, and the only dollar we meas
ured our public and private debts by,
was worth II cents. When the above
paragraph from the Tribune was penn.

Of sir per cent. under the three months

President. Now, If the white-coated
philosopher of the Tribune will scratch
his mathematical organ for couple
Of minutes, he will be able to easily
comprehend that il takes more dollars
to pay debt when the said dollars
are worth II cents each, than il does
when they are worth II cents each.
Our paper dollar when Grant took bis
seat was worth :he latter sum; 10 day
it is worth the former, and the little
difference against Mr. Grant and the
New York Tribune on the debt ques-
