THE RADICAL PLATFORM.

The Harrisburg Patriot says; None
Of the wise men of the Republican party
have been able to interpret for the
people of Pennsylvania the "true in
wardnessn of the Lancaster platform
on the currency. The resolution de-
clares for "iree banking, safe and
"uniform currency adjusted to the
growing wants of the business inter
" csts of the country Now whether
this "safe and uniform currency" shall
consist of greenbacks, national bank
notes, or gold and silver, the authors
and advocates of this platform cannot
be persuaded to say. Everybody, hard
money man and inhationist, may inter
pret the meaning of this double-faccd
resolution TO suit himself, though there
is n very suspicious squint in the direc-
ton of imitation in the phrase about
adjusting the currency to the growing
wants of the business interests" Con
trastod with these tricky, dishonest,
equivocd phrases, there is refreshing
irankness and straightforwardness
about the Erie resolution on the cur
rcney. Whatever differences Of opin-
ion may exist on this question, there Is
no mistaking the meaning of the Dem
ocrstic platform, and it will attract
support by its honesty and directness,
while the tricky and deceptive catch.
words of the Lancaster resolution will
only repel the earnest voter.

Gov BIGLER,--An interviewer of the
Philadelphia Times, visited Mr.. Bigler,
on Friday morning at the Girard House
in that city, and reports as follows
"Thc late hour at which the news of
the nomination reached the city, be-
ing at 2 o'clock this morning, found
few about TO hear the news. A few
fingered about the Girard House, where
dispatches were received giving the
different ballots. Governor Bigler
was there, but retired before the
seventh ballot was reported. He was
entirely prepared to hear that another
than himself was the favorite, and re-
ceived the news of Pershing's nomina-
ton not only philosophically, but with
evident contentment, After the adop-
ton of the imitation platform, Governor
Bigler really preferred not to be the
candidate. He is not at war with his
party on the issue, although he is more
conservative than the platform on the
currency question, but he preferred a
contest on State issues with which be
was identified, while he felt unequal,
physically, to the desperate aggressive
campaign the supremacy of the cur
rency issue requires. lie believes that
that the battle will be fought now on
the money question, and that vital
issues Of State and municipal policy
will of necessity be overlooked. The
Governors rest was evidently not dis
turbed by the result of the convention
Clearfield Republican. [volume] (Clearfield, Pa.) 1851-1937, 1875-09-15

On the eleventh ballot Hon. Cyrus
Il. Pershing, Of Schuyl<ill county, re.
ceived majority Of all the votes cast,
and, on motion of a friend of Judge
Ross, who had the next highest vote,
the nomination was made unanimous.
The fact that our party friends can
present nineteen candidates qualified
to discharge the duties Of Governor,
is conclusive proof that the Democrat.
ic party is not dead.
After the nomination Tor Governor
had oeen made general, nominations
for Treasurer were made, including

We RISE TO ExPLAIN.-Reader, on
former occasion we promised TO say
this week eFor Governor, William
Biglcr." This we cannot do. The
delegates TO the Eric Convention have
seen fit to change our programme, and
we are advised to write the name of
Cyrus l.. Pershng, instead. This we
do with pleasure, for two reasons. We
know Mr.. Pershing to be one Of the
purest public men in the Common
'woalkb, and because he has been select
ed for fhe position by our duly consti-
futed representatives. He has been
thoroughly .taated in public affairs, and
like our own highly esteemed candi-
date, he has never had his official gar
ments soiled, or his personal character
successfully assailcd.
We are proud of our nominees
Neither ef them ever met George o.
Evans on Chestnut street, Philadelphia,
and handed him ~ 900 without taking
n receipt or demanding their notes
Hence we place their names ut our
mast head this week, and ask every
man who loves free government to as
sist in'elocting them, and thereby over
turn the corrupt cabal which has ruled
ut Harrisburg for the past ton years.
