IN his speech before the Democratic
Conference, Mr.. Ruppel Ct somer-
set in urging General Coffroth's nom
nation, is reported to have said

"Why did Somerset choose a Somerset County
man, and why Cambria instruct for n Somerset
County man. Because they felt the necessity Of
reducing the Republican majority In that county.
They can do 1t with Mr.. Cofiroth. i have letters
in my possession, which l have shown to nearly
all the Conferees, saying that he can do that and
can be elected. His nomination would also help
the Democracy OF our County by helping the
County ticket"
Everybody knows that Mr.. Cof1roth
can not run more than his party vote
in this County, except through a
division in our ranks, and we thank
Mr.. Ruppel for thus tacitly admitting
that it is through division 10 u
ranks that Coffrotb and the Demo-
cratic ticket are to be benefited.
Said we not well that the men who
are laboring to get up another ticket
are playing into the hands Of the
Democracy?
Couldn't Mr.. Ruppel be induced to
exhibit those letters to o curious pub
lie at home.

THE campaigns Of the Democracy
in this State for the last half dozen
years, have been made on the howl
of fraud in the Treasury. Six years
since Governor Hartranft was foully
slandered and abused, and charges
were made that 10 connection with
Treasurer Mackey he had perpetrat-
ed gross frauds as Auditor General,
in the accounts of the State. Thou
sands of times it has been asserted
by Democratic journals that the
vaults Of the Treasury contained
evidence of malfeasancc 10 that the
public money was loaned to irrespon-
sible parties, and that the State had
in lieu thereof a mass of worthless
notes and due hills. Temple was
elected Auditor General on this cry,
and after holding Office foF three
years retired without showing a
single instance OF fraud. A Demo-
cratic Legislature that chose Wallace
L. S. Senator, anne into power on
this same fraud cry. 1t instituted
an investigation which it abandoned,
failing to obtain any proof Of wrong,
but sneakingly refused to admit the
fact. Again last year it renewed the
cry Of fraud and elected Schell
Auditor General and Moves Treasur-
er on the distinct allegation that Re-
publican officials had covered up huge
frauds in the Treasury, which would
be unearthed if these gentlemen were
elected.
After months of quiet waiting, tie
Republican press commenced de-
manding that Treasurer Noyes should
furnish the public with an exposure
of the damning frauds so p%ertina-
ciously alleged by bis party friends,
and finally be vas badgered into
publishing q statement Of the real
condition of the Treasury, which
shows that under Republican admin
istration of the State Treasury not a
dollar Of The public reuenae has
been lost, and in reply to the foul
charges to which be owes his cleo
ton, that the Treasury, in lieu of
money, held q mass of worthless notes
and due bills, he is compelled to ad-
