Our neighbor of the Democrat few
years ago, cautioned his readers not to
read Horace Greeley's paper for fear, we
suppose, that they might see how Horace
abused the Democratic party. Now he ad-
vises Democrats to go TO the polls on cleo
tion day, and vote solid for Horace Gree
ley. Did ever anybody see such inconsis-
tency in an editor He says "all the old is
sues about which we differed are dead and
gone forever" This looks as though the
editor of the Democrat wanted to dictate
to every Democrat, and compel them TO
vote just as he desired them to. He
says too that "the great hosts of Liberals
with their presses and influential men, will
swell the ranks" in favor of Greeley. In
another part of his paper he says the fe,c
Liberal Republicans withou. appending the
"inlluential.n What can his readers ex-
pect to infer from such contradictions. We
think that the "Liberal'' movement at the
late election was one of the most liberal
movements made for many years. Instead
of receiving 10000 to $4,000 Republican
majority they were liberal enough to give
us $4,000, and we shall not object to hav-
ing another display of liberality to an equal
extent in November next, in which case the
franks will be swelled" to at least $4,000.
Sunbury American. [volume] (Sunbury, Pa.) 1848-1879, 1872-10-26

THE editor Of the Democrat still clings to
his friend Pat Hester. In his last issue he
complains that large posters were put up
denying the report that Pat Hester had
been pardoned which the editor and few
of his friends were circulating throughout
the county on the eve of the election, and
thinks it shameful policy" As. Pat
has not been pardohcd, and is likely not To
be, the editor and his few friends, who in
tended to dupe the farmers by telling them
lie to secure their votes, will find that the
people in the Mahanoys are not as igno.
rant as they took them to be. We know q
number, both Democrats and Republicans,
in the German districts, who could enlighteu
the editor of the Democrat some, and all
could teach him more honesty in politics
than he ever knew.

fires unusually frequent and destructive.
The country within an area of thirty miles

Yesterday prairie fire started two miles

here were out all last nigh. and to-day
fighting the flames to prevent the destruc-

OUR DUTY.-The October election is
over, and matters, MS far as county and
State Is concerned, is sr''"' .uothel
wear. Tho - duty to per
'o'm which is of the higlisrt ;mnortapcc
and if we exercise good juds.....t ". shal
gain experience to guide us In the future
We allude to the duty devolving upo" ~.
on the 9Th of November next, one which
no true lover of his country can shirk, in
which every citizen is interested, to vote
for men for President and Vice President
who best protect the interests Of the coun'
try. The working man and business man
both are interested. and have n serious du-
ty to perform. You have choice for Pre-
sident and Vice President, and it will be
your duty to judge which is best calculated
to advance your interests, and those OF
your neighbors. On the one side you have
free trade staring you in the face ready to
close up your workshops, furnaces, stores
and all other business, while on the other
side protection to American industry is
sure to receive favorable consideration.
or Republican rule this country-but the
question is whether our Government shall
be carried on in the interests of English
capitalists, and get the wages of the work
ing classes cut down to correspond with
wages in Europe. Working men see that
your ballots are cast for the party that pro-
tected your interests.
The Mahanoy Valley Record, published
by John Parker, Labor Rcformer, takes
the following sensible view of the matter
Protection to the interests of American
industry is question of the most vital i'm
portance to every working man in these
coal regions, and with them every business
man also, and which Of the two parties
asking our suf1ages, is most to be depend
ed on, to further, uphold, and defend
this vital question, is matter that most
directly affects us, and. something for us
to be fully satisfied ofs Before we cast our
votes on the fifth of next month. In Ho-
race GreeleyyYe behold man ,who has
been for years an advocate protection,
and one who had been affiliated with pro-
tectonists we certainly could haxe looked
upon ns the friend of American Indhstfy,s
but alas for his life long rcputati4R as n
protectionist for the sake ofofise he lays
down the weapons of his warfare and says,
whatever you think is best wiz endorse.
If you decide for protection, l snail gladly
agree with you. Ifyou are in favor of free
trade, shall not oppose your will. Like
the 'potter's clay place myself IN your
hands to mould me as you please" SO
much, then, for man who after lighting
so long with us for Protection, who now
for the love Of Office, like a coward, grovels
ut the feet of tile free trade faction. AS
for Brown, all know that he is an ultra
Free Trader, and therefore we cannot but
expect tharall his influence as Nice Pre-
sident would be used in its favor, His
committees would be appointed TO further
it, and should a tie vote in the Senate rem
der it necessary that ne should decide,
Dallas like, his decision would be with
Free Trade.

n NUMBER of prominent gentlemen from
the South who happened to meet in confer,
ence in Washington the other day 10 dis
cuss the political situation, and who repre-
sent various portions of the South, report
cd that there was little or no discourage
ment in their respective sections over thc
result of the October elections. All but
one State. possibly two, will vote for Gree
ley and Brown in November. The addi
tion of New York, Indiana, Connecticut
and New Hampshire is only required to
make the ticket successful. Democrat.
1t is readily seen by the above that the
editor of the Democrat depends upon his
Ku-Klux friends in the South to elect IIo
race Greeley. Perhaps he has forgotten
that Grant has beaten them before, and
that there are more loyal men in the South
now than there was then.
