The Lehigh Register, published in Sec

iron rails, and in which the railroad, canal
and coal king has some little personal, but
no political influence, thus speaks of the
Democratic nominee for Governor
''Asa Packer is worth twenty million of
dollars, and that is the sole cause of his
nomination. The same reason for his
nomination for the presidency was urged
last summer in New York Merit, states
manship, the interests of our Common
wealth, are all thrown to one side, and the
people of Pennsylvania are asked to make
wealth the sole qualification for Office. After
a astruggle Of century against the despotism
Of the Old World, we are urged to relin.
quish our victory and erect in the glorious
old Keystone State an aristocracy OF money
The people of Pennsylvania want Gov
ernor of wealth even greater than that Asa
Packer possesses. They will require more at
his hands than Asa Packer can give. They
will ask him to be honest, upright, straight
forward and above all loyal, and this last
qualification especially Asa Packer lacks, and
without this wealth of honor-devotion to
his country In her great trials-no man can
ever be elected Governor of Pennsylvania

lent His open-heartedness was plainly
shown in his distribution of free passes to
his supporters to enable them to go 10 Har-
risburg 1t was still more plainly shown
when he endowed a college with five hundred
thousand dollarS-but how we're his means
devoted during the great rebellion, while
his opponent was braying the perils Of the
battle field and riskiUg even a greater than
Asa Packers fortune in defense of his
country! II We remember Alright, during
that time Government required immense
quantities of coal Asa Packer saw the
chance to make himself nabob, and all his
means and energies were enlisted in that sole
object. 1t was during this time that Asa
Packer made his fortune out of the ne
cessltles Of our Government, and the war,
which was death and desolation to so many
homes, put millions into his pockets and
made him the Democratic candidate for
Governor in 1869.
1t remains to be seen whether the people
will reward the man who won aff1uence and
wealth from the taxes levied to carry on the
war, or the man who gave up everything
for his country, in her sore time of need.

Boo2Y RuNcomBE.


The eopperhead platform IS rich piece
Of political buncombe. The cool impudence
of It's assertions is only equaIod by the pre-
sumption Of ignorance in their ranks sufIi-
eient to swallow the impudent falsehoods
aud glaring Inconsistencies it contains. The
Second resolution reads as follows:
2 That the attempted ratification of the
proposed fifteenth amendment TO the Fed
eFal Constitution by the Radical members Of
the last Legislature and their refusal to sub
init the same to vote of the people, was a
deliberate breach of their official duty, and
an outrage upon every citizen of the State,
and the resolution making such ratification
should be promptly repealed, and the
amendment submitted to the people at the
polls, for acceptance or rejection.
The attempted ratification is piece of
brazen efrontery seldom equalled. The
merest schoolb9y knows not only that the
ratification by the Legislature was real and
genuine but that it is the method expressly
provided for in the Constitution of the
United States as our fathers made it. Il
Is said that Frank Hughes drew up the
platform and we can only account for this
stupidity on his part by supposing, that he
was IN the condition of so many Of the
members Of the Convention, who are said to
have selected their lodgings for the night
on street cellar doors and in dirty alleys
rather than 10 the comfortable hotels. Ger
tainly none but drunken man or a simple
ton would have fallen into the utter absur-
dity Of insisting in party platform that an
amendment to the Constitution of the Uni
ted States was invalid because it was passed
in strict accordance with that clause of the
Constitution which provides for its own
amendment The most charitable construc-
ton we can put upon this plank Of their
pla aform is that the whole convention were
so boosy that they confounded our own
State Constitution with the Constitution Of
tic United States. The State Constitution
does require that any amendment to it shall
be voted upon by the people, but the Con
stitution Of the United States does not on
the contrary it specifically requires that any
amendment shall be passed by two thirds of
the State Legislatures. Our copperhead
friends while in their cups have been guilty
of openly demanding in their party platform,
a tigh banded violation of the Constitution
of the United States for the very letter Of
which they have heretofore been such per-
sislent sticklers.

THE UNExPENDED BALANCE


Now Is the time to determine the policy
Of cur next Legislature in regard to the un-
expended balance 10 the State Treasury
The law needs radical change in regard to
the disposition of these surplus funds. An
average Of a million dollars lies in the Treas
uFy the year through. This money it is
alleged Is used by the Treasurers for specu.
iatiye purposes and the interest acerues to
the benefit Of the Treasurer netting him
perhaps hundred thousand dollars a year
that ought to go to the account Of the State.
Let our Senators and members of the Leg
lslatu?e be pledged to pass a law providing
for the depositing or otherwise disposing of
this surplus fund in such manner that the
II terest accruing may go into the Treasury
instead Of the pockets Of the Treasurer
This is a matter that calls loudly for reform
aud cannot be attended to too soon. If the
Treasurers salary is too small for the re-
spousibility he has to assume let it be in
creased to fair remuneration, but let him
be obliged to give sufficient security instead
of a merely nominal one, and then let him
be required under heavy penalty to use the
public funds for the benefit Of the State
alone, and not for personal emolument.
With security in sum scarcely tenth
part Of the fund entrusted to their care it
is certainly very creditable to the men who
have held the Office Of Treasurer that they
have not become defaulters. The tempta
ton to dishonesty has been great and it is
entirelg due TO the high character andinteg-
riiy Of our Treasurers Of late years that the
State has not lost large sums. Under Dem
ocratc management the Treasury was al
ways empty and the paltry pay and small
security were then amply sufficient for all
the fgnds to be cared for It is since the
Republican party has been econouIizing the
funds aud paying the debt that a heavy sur
plus is frequently left in the Treasury await
ing the payment Of interest due on the debt.
How many Republican members and Sena-
tors shall be pledged to a revision Of the law
aud he providing for a still further economi-
zlng Of the public funds?
