Tho Columbian This Mcck.

The number of any newspaper issued
tho week preceding tho election we re.
gard as Of no Importance politically
except to make explanation and
to contradict misstatements. Any now
matter brought forward ut that late date
to influence the election may justly be
looked upon With suspicion andno pru.
dent man will act upon it unless it is
backed up with the cloarest and most
substantial proof of its accuracy and
truth. We know that "LAsr CARDS
are often rosorted to, and that the eve
OF The election is tho time usually adopt
cd to put forth the most groundless
falsehoods, but We repeat that any pru.
dent man will receive these with suspi.
ciou II not positive unbelief, unless sup.
ported by proof so sure that IL cannot
be doubted.
The Republicans, aud their assist
ants, the volunteers, will probably re-
sort to every subtcrfuge and most prob.
ably to the trick of Issuing some public
alton intended TO cheat and mi5lead
the voters, SO near the election day (or
on that day. aJ to prevent contradic.
tion, for want of time. Against this old
trick we have only TO say BE ON
YOUR GUARD, and treat all such
tricks with the contempt they deserve.
Every honest thing that can be said
was put before the public in ample time
to be considered, Investigated and dis.
cussed before election day. There is
nothing fair left to be done except PER-
SONAL EFFORT and to GET OUT
THE VOTE. Let these not be ne
elected.

Evans Arrested!

GEO. o. EVANS has at length been ar
rested in New York city, upon requi-
sition from tho Governor of this State,
but one of the petty Judges of that city
Issued writ of habeus corpus, and is
sitting In Judgment as gracefully as an
owl to decide whether he shall be deliv-
cred up to Pennsylvania! If Governor
GEARY permits his requisition TO be
treated with contempt in this manner,
or If Gov. HOFFMAN has so little regard
for the Constitution of the United States
as TO permit it to be done, both ought
to be impeached. Neither of these
functionaries has any right to exercise
discretion in the case. 1t is the business
of the Governor of New York to deliver
up the prisoner, and it is the business of
the Governor of Pennsylvania to see
that he is properly tried on the grave
charge against him. AS to the petty
rascally Judge, he has no business to
meddle.
But the whole thing is a sham |!
EVANS has been for weeks openly
walking the streets of New York and
could have been arrested at any time.
His arrest has been purposely delayed
until the eve of the election and the
Radical officials have no intention of
bringing him to trial. They dare not
do IL! Atleast they dare not unless they
fix EVANS up in the meantime, for he
threatens to tell tale that will involve
a whole batch of Radical officials, in
acts of glaring villainy. U. S. Sena-
tors, heads of departments, and other
prominent Radicals will be implicated
If EVANS tells the whole story, and this
is why there is no disposition to bring
him to trial. But to trial he must be
brought.

WHATEVER a mans political pur.
suasion may be, Or however he intends
to vote, EVERY ONE should turn out
to the election. Every citizen owes one
day and one vote annually to his coun-
try, and tothe election every one should
go and discharge his duty as his con-
science dictates. Ofcourse our advice
is to vote the Democratic ticket, with.
out scratching or dodging, from top to
bottom. At any rate, go and vote!
The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1871-10-06

TURN THEN OUT.-Thc Evans fraud
is the subject Of conversation all over
the State. Men are putting to each
other the inquiry: {" Is it not time to
have change in the administration of
our State finances, when prominent of.
iicials are found to be engaged in dc.
liberate plan to rob the people of up.
wards of three hundred thousand dol.
lars?" The answer is plain. The men
who are found to be dishonest must be
turned out of Office and honest men
must be elected in their stead. Tax
payers consult your own interests and
vote for the Democratic candidates.

EVANS fashion. Elect Gen. MCCAND.
LESS and all such frauds will be ex.
posed and for the future prevented. 1t
is the fear of such exposures that makes
the various Radical rings of the State
so anxious TO elect DR.. STANTON, who
will cover up their frauds. AS all the
other officers are Radicals, every tax

FRAUDULENT TICKETS |
VOTERS BEWARE!

We have before us Il FRAUD
ULENT TICKET headed "Dem-
ocratic Ticket" which contains the
names of no less than THREE of
the volunteer candidates of the
Radicals. Other forms of frautlu-
lent tickets will no doubt be is
sued.
The regular Democratic ticket
is headed in large type and in two
lines, thus:
COLUMBIA COUNTY
DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
But bear in mind that this, too,
will probably be initiated. There
is no safety, therefore, except in
examining your tickets closely.
When men resort to FRAUD and
FORGERY for success, the pub
lie may well judge them, and those
who resort to one fraud will not
be likely to stop at any which will
aid them.
