N AND DEMOCRAT BLOOMSBURY, COLUMBIA COUNTY PA

The Democratic of Willamsport held
meeting at the Court House, on the evening
of the 2lst. The house was crowded,
speeches were made by Col. Tate, President
of the meeting, Col j. G.. Freeze, Hon,
Hci,ter Clymer, and others We give below
brief outline of COL Freezes remarks as
reported by the Ga,t'e d Bal'cth.
col. FREE3E AZ wltLIiusroRr.
Mr. Freeze commenced hy recounting his
vearying experience in the Democratic con-
ference lie spoke of the general good
nature which was manifested by those who
participated in the sessions. The defeated
candidates had all pledged their support and
the vote of their counties to the successful
| candidate. The districts of the common
wealth are drawing themselves together for
one more, and he trusted final assault upon
corruption. The President had given the
| highest offices to his retainers, without re-
gard to capacity. We have seen the father
in-aw of the President acting as an office
| broker. We have seen the President putting
the financial management of the country
| into the hands of firm which had become
bankrupt, and per cent, was to go to the
| President and his relatives in consequence,
| In the District of Columbia speculation the
leader was an intimate of the white house.
A cabinet officer had been driven from posi-
tion on accountof fraud, and the place had
been filled by the appointment of Zach.
| Chandler. Is it not about time an admin
istration was put in power in this country
that should be honest, and a protection to
our people? While the wages of the labor
ing men were coming down to ninety cents a
day, the President was travelling deadhead
| about tba m slarv ttvi nc lnrno
as Washington had, with half as much work
The whole country has been debauched
and it is time to cry "haltw 1t is time il
was stopped.
With regard to the State, we are in very
much the same condition as with the federal
administration. The treasury was being
used for the purpose of debauchDg the pub
lie sentiment and carrying elections. 1t was
an open secret We know the treasury ring
has manipulated the vote in Philadelphia
and thereby beaten Democratic candidates
There is a Pilgrim ring in Philadelphia
which has piled up a debt so great that q
limit had to be fixed by the constitutional
convention, and yet the filching continued
1t is the business of the people outside the
city, to rescue the citizens of Philadelphia
There were Pilgrim rings in every city in thu
State. These were for the purpose or cor
rupting the voters. when these men g.
about with their money it means corruption
and that must be struck down. Governo
Hartranlt has for three years winked at al
this, and it is growing worse. 1t is within
the power of the people to reform this; thu
Democratic convention has nominated men
who, if elected, will enforce honesty.
The speaker came from the county o
Columbia, and he was proud of his county
The Democracy always marched to the poll
and voted solidly it would give two thou

A Challenge 10 RaWle,

Victor f. Piollet, the Democratic candi-
date for State Treasurer, declares his views
and position as follows:
WYsoX, October IL, 1875.-Dear Sir:
| believe that all sums of money paid
to the State Treasurer for interest upon de-
posts are as much the money of the State as
Is the principal, and should be accounted
for by that officer. Please invite my oppo-
nents to come forward and state their views
aud understanding of the law in this regard.
Will those gentlemen agree with me that it
is embe2ztement to take cent beyond the sal
ary affixed by law 10 the. office of State
Treasurer?
| desire precedent that will compel all
State Treasures in the future to show by
monthly statements who has the State mon
ey on deposit and how much (if anything( is
paid for its use, with corresponding entry
of credit on the books of the Treasury in fa-
vor of the people OF Pennsylvania. desire,
even more than my election, that the coadi-
ton Of tie State Treasury be openly stated at
all times and subject TO the scrutiny of any
man, or set of men, desiring to verify the
statement. IN conclusion, l again arcr that
interest paid for tie use Of State money is as
sacred(y tie property of The people as the pria-
cpa V. L. PIoLLET.
Piollet believes it to be embezzlement to
take cent while in Office beyond his salary.
The taxpayers would like to hear Rawle's
opinion on this subject. Will he dare accept
this challenger Rise up, Henry Rawle, and
answer!

can be successfully accomplished, we would

Senator from SchElkill, of Irish-French
extraction, proposes to make, heavy inroads
among the "Mollie Maguires" in favor of
Hartranft by promising pardons.. for any Of
fences that may be committed. He is report
ed to have said that he has the authority
of Hartranft for doing so. Any man who
would vote for Hartranft under such pledges
deserves to be punished, and we gladly an
nounce that the majority of the Board OF
Pardons happens to be composed of Demo-
Gratis, who are not disposed to pardon crimi-
nails because they may have voted certain
way. Hartranft has pardoned his partisans
in the past, but unfortunately for him the
new constitution now prevents him from
liberating them at his own will The cause
must be desperate which requires appeals to
scoundrels and ruffians by the promise Of
pardons.

JUDGE PERsHING AT HoMR.-A cores
pondent of the Reading Eagle at Pottsvile
writing in regard to Democratic prospects in
Schuylkill county, says;
Judge Pershing stands well in this com

he will carry Schuylkill county by at least
1000 majority. You can't ask poor man
or workingman in Judge Persning's neigh
borhood but who will tell you that he is an
honest man and warm friend of him who
earns his bread by the sweat of his brow
The people in Pottsville have great faith in
Pershing they believe in him and trust in
him; and further, they are going to support
him for governor. Some gentlemen in high
standing and who are supposed to know
something about politics, think his majority
in the State will reach $4,000 votes.
was talking to a representative miner
about Gov. Hartranit, when the gentleman
said that there was no use in him expecting
any support from them. The men were not
outspoken as general thing, but they will
vote against him as they say he had no right
or cause to treat mer who were struggling
for their rights, in such disgraceful man
ner by menacing them with armed troops
from all parts of the State. This is the gem
eral feeling among the miners and they will
vote against Hartranft.

THE LAST on IT.

Last Friday morning District Attorney
Britton entered thc.Brooklyn City Court, be-
fore Judge Nelson, and made a motion to
enter a aoHe pEo', in the slander suit of
Beecher against Tilton, and similar motion
in Beccher against Moulton. The Judge
permitted the entry to be made. Mr.. Brit
ton made like motion in all the indictments
against Tilton and Moulton, which were al
lowed, This ends the business. But what
are we, the people, to understand? Does
Beecher forgive them, or is he afraid2 Is
this an acknowledgment of guilt on his part,
or does it show his magnaminity? Did
Beecher bribe Tilton and Moulton or did
they buy him off? 1t is about time for Mrs.
Tilton, or some one of the precious crew to
write statement, and tell us all about it.
What has been the effect of this scanda-
lous proceeding? Simply to make lions OF
Beecher and Titon. The former conducted
religious gymnastics up among the White
Mountains. all summer, which were attended
by thousands of people, and the latter has
been engaged to deliver two hundred lectures
through the country, from which he expect:
to make $4,000. What people we are, tc
