PROPOSED REVISION or THE DEMOCRATIC
plflEs

As a matter OF general information, and
n accordance with custom, we publish in
knother column the Rules which are ~ gov
srn the approaching Democratic Convention,
which should be carefully read and preser-
we'd by the voters.
We also publish the Call for the County
Convention, which will meet Tuesday, Au.
gust Sth, aud the delegate election will be
held the Saturday previous. The apportion
ment of delegates is made on the basis oi
khe Democratic vote or Pershing in 1870.
BY this table it will be seen that Brarcreek
land Scott each lose delegate, while North
|Conyngham, Catawissa, Hemlock and Su-
garloaf each gain one. This makes the to
tai number of delegates seventy, the limit
allowed by the rules,
At the Convention of 1874, committee
consisting of j. G.. Freeze, NJ. f. Jackson
I G. II. Buckalew, ]. b. Knittle, and ID. Low.
enberg were appointed to revise the rules
This Committee was continued Wy the Con.
yention of 1875, and instructed to publish
their report prior to the Convention of 1876
In another column we give the proposed
changes in the rules, and call the attention
of our readers to the subject, so that when
the Convention meets in August the subject
may be understood and intelligently dis
ouasad

THE TARIFFS

Some of the opposition journals are accus-
ing the Democrats of being free trade par
ty. Sensible men know that this is not
now, nor has it ever been mere party ques-
ton. Opinions upon the tariff question are
guided by the feelings ofthe people in various
localities, hence in the West free trade sem
timents are felt by parties, and in the East
and Pennsylvania strong feeling prevails
in favor of protective tariff
But we assert that Hayes and the people
of Ohio are free trade in sentiment, and that
neither the Republican platform, nor the
letter of acceptance, say one encouraging
word to the protective tariff men. Our op.
ponents should be sure Of their ground be-
fore opening this question.

All persons to secure the right to vote in
Pennsylvania, must be assessed two months
before the election aud have paid State or
county tax (eilher will do) within two years.
In case the tax is paid this year, it must be
IL month preceding the election.
Foreign bora citizens wishing to vote next
November must take out their naturalza-
tion papers month before election. They
must also be assessed two months previous
to the day of voting.
The election will be held on "the Tuesday
next following the first Monday of Novem-
ber," being this year the 9TH day of the
month.
Monday, September 4th, is the last day
for being assessed.
Thursday, October 9th, is the last day for
securing naturalization papers
Thursday, October 9th, is the last day on
which taxes can be paid in legal time to
vote.
These dates are very important, and should
be carefully kept in mind by Democratic
workers and Campaign Committees every.
where 1t is better not to wait till the last
day, but TO have these essential requirements
attended to at the earliest practical period.

A Health Promoting Stimulant.

Physicians, who certainly ought to be the
best judges of such matters, declare that
wholesome stimulant is not only desirable
but essential in many instances. When the
temporary good effect of a sound stimulant
is confirmed and rendered permanent, as in
the case of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, by
the action of tonic and alternative principles
combined with it, it becomes infinitely more
efiicacous as a renovant of physical energy
and a corrective of those conditions of the
body which invite disease. The Btters
have received the emphatic sanction of med.
ical men who have observed the effect OF
that popular stimulative cordial as remedy
for weakness, nervousness, dyspepsia, consti.
patton, inactivity of the liver, malarious fe.
vvers. and many other diseases. Its basis i,
sound old rye, the purest liquor known tc
commerce, and itself possessing tonic pro.
perties of no mean order.

TILDEN.

The Times, McClure's brilliant paper, in
speaking of our nominee for President
says:
Cover Tilden is alike blameless in his in
dividual and public character. As an anti
slavery follower Of Silas Wright, he
braved power and discarded political success
te maintain his convictions. AS political
organizer and leader, no fraud has ever
claimed him as its parent. As the methodi-
cal and fearless assailant of the defiant
Tweed oligarchy ofpoltical prosecution and,
plunder, be stands single from the mass Of
his fellows of all parties rs the man who
regarded right as paramount to political
success, and as Governor of the first State @ I
the Union, he has exercised his great
authority with unfaitering devotion. To the
regeneration OF power rather than to present
party triumphs. Whatever may be the pop
ular Judgment as to the wisdom of restora-
tion of the Democracy to national power, the
man Samuel j. Tillen will be personally
honored by the great mass of his country
| men.

WHAT Is THE MATTER WITH GRASrq

Without any cause, pruvocation or expla-
nation, 50 far as is knownGrant, requested
the resignation of Post Master General
Jewell, which was Immediately rendered.
]. IT, Tyner of Indiana has been appointed
in his stead. The rapidity with which these
cabinet changes, have been made of late,
taken with the fact that the President was
unable to be present at the Centennial cele.
bration in Philadelphia on the 4th of July,
the removal of District Attorney Dyer who
conducted the Whiskey ring trials in the
West, and caused the conviction of the prs.
oners, the resignation of Commissioner Pratt,
the appointment oi the corrupt Fisher as
District Attorney in Delaware and many
other acts of a similar character all point
most conclusively to but one explanation sI
the Presidents conduct. We are forced to
the conviction that Grant has been afflicted
with one of his periodical attacks of illness
caused by indulging in too much centennial
rum. The cheeks of the American people
mantle with the blush of shame in contem-
plating the situation. Oh virtue thy name
! is not y. ). Grant!

TRUTH AT LAST.

The Gazette and Bulletin gives undivided
support to Hayes as it did to Grant. In a
late number it says:
at transpires that the removal of Post
master General Jewell was caused by his
sympathy for Mr.. Bristow and for his ener-
gy in enforcing reform. President Grant is
determined, it would seem, to retain no one
in Office who was in any way interested in
making war on the thieving rings that were
formed to fatten of the government In
Il word, the Babcpcks, and all of that ilk,
now feel sure of executive protection. For
tunately for the country, however, President
Grants term will end ON the fourth of March
next---seven months and half from this
time -Gdzette d. Bulletin.
Now We desire to call its attention to the
following:
The National Administration merits COM
mendation for the honorable work in the
management of domestic and foreign affairs
and President Grant deserves the hearty
gratitude of the American pc ople for hi,
patriotism and his immense services in wal
and in peace.-,SeveateeRM Resolution Of M
Republican National Conceation.
''The resolutions are in accord with m,
views" s."-Rutherford b. Hayes Letter of Ac
ceptdnce.
The platform endorses Grant, and Hayel
endorses the Platform. What civil servic
reform can come from such man? Nomi

ton, the campaign to be organized and COZ

would simply be perpetuation of the pre-
cut administration, the only change beir
its nominal head.
Tildens election means REFoRM, and e

HAYES PROMISES.


In his letter of acceptance Gov. Hayes
promises TO reform the civil service and to
run the entire government on reform prin-
ciples it elected. This is mere idle talk.
II is just as impossible for Hayes to reform
the Republican party as it is for him to re-
move the mountains into the Sea In these
days of republican misrue the adninistra.
ton is run by the party leaders, not by the
President, who is a mere figure head. In or
der 10 reform the civil or any other service
he must reform his party and it is beyond
his power to unseat the present leaders OF
the party and to make honest men out of
the army of Office holders who have been
growing rich on the peoples money for the
past twelve years. 1t would be strange in
deed, if the people are not yet ready to ad-
init that abuses and corruption have crept
into the administration of public affairs, and
that this, in connection with the runous
financial policy Of the party in power, is
what has brought upon the nation its pres
ent condition of business prOstration. While
Hayes promises reform, the platform on
which he was nominated, does not even
admit that there is any thing to reform.
Under the present party machinery it would
be impossible for him to carry out the first
letter of his promise. What then, must be
done? Let the people of the nation arise in
their majesty and might and proclaim thai
the day of retribution has come, that dishon
est officials and mbecile Presidents will NJ
longer be tolerated. Let them place Sam
uel J Tilden in the executive chair ant
clean out the hordes of corrupt men who arr
washing the public money and demoralizinl
the country and in a short time we shal
find that new era has dawned upon us
and the dear old stars and stripes will agair
wave, the proudest flag on the face of thu
globe.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON RULES.

The Committee appointed by the President
of the last annual county Convention to ex-
anime and if thought proper to revise the
Rules of nomination of the Democratic
party of Columbia, have examined the said
rules and now, in pursuance of the Resolu-
ton authorizing their appointment, make
the following report:
That in their opinion several amendments
of the rules can be made with advantage to
| the general scheme of order and regulation
which the rules were enacted to establish.
| 1t is believed that the classification and
arrangement of the Rules according to
natural or convenient divisions of subject
matter will render them more convenient
for use and to some extent more easily
understood.
The Rules do rot provide for cases of tie
votes, in electing delegates or upon instruc-
tions nor fully define the powers and duties
of the Standing Committee And it is
believed that several of the rules may be
more clearly expressed and some of them be
shoi tened and condensed
The whole are now presented by us in a
revised form with some matter added and
with some omissions Of unnecessary clauses,
but most of them are left substantially un-
changed.
A code of good laws or rules must be a
matter of growth and of tir e, the result OF
experience and trial-we are fully convinced
that our rules in general will compare
favorably with those of other counties ofthe
State and that they are much better calcula'
{ ted to secure those capital objects-purity
4 and fairness in nominations. We have for
tunately avoided the heavy expenses and
$ system which has elsewhere worked so badly
: upon trial and been abandoned in Northum
= berland and other counties, while severa
v defeats of our old Convention system hav,
d been corrected. Districts are more fairly rep
j. resented than they were formerly, delegat,
u elections more fairly conducted and Conyeh
tions of larger numbers less liable to excite
ment and to imputations of unfair or i'm
proper conduct.
Prudent amendments occasionally mad
IA to the rules of nomination will no doubt b
is is advantageous in promoting good feeling an,
is securing fair play in party action, but ex
ie treme or very extensive changes of the Rul,
y do not seem to be now required.
