came very near becoming President Of
the United States in 1878 he is glad

candidate OF the Republican party, and
IL the October election IN Pennsylvania
had been fairly conducted and the re-
turns honestly made up, be would have

November 10 have made him President;

proved the man for such a crisis. lie

in the Senate was marked by nothing
proving him fit to be President, nor
did his career as u soldier develop any
evidence of his having been born to

in 1856 may be attributed to the politi-

own in the memorable canvass OF that
year, and today thousands rejoice over

that his circumstances are such as TO
render this appointment grateful to

lative ventures, and the final result OF
all his financial endeavors is poverty,
In view Of this tact his friends are glad
that the President has appointed him
Governor of Arizona. In this position
he will be secure against want, and he
may be able while residing in that
Territory to do something for himself
in a business way. He will feel at
home among tho mountains and the
miners, and will, no doubt, be popular
with the denizens of his wild bailiwick.

VALLEY FoReE.-The Philadelphia
Commonwealth says On Wednesday,
June 10Th, the celebration of the one
h~undredth anniversary Of Washing
toms camping ut Valley Forge took
place under favorable auspices as 10
weather. When we remembered that
the great glory of Valley Forge in our
country's history was the trials and
sufferings Of the american militia y
under the STAKEHOLDER George Wash
ington, and his dependence on God for
the safety Of his troops, and the hope
Of triumph which was in the near
future, we rejoice TO know that the
Abolition Communist party ventured
10 do honor TO the memories Of that
classic spot and It's relation to Ameri-
can independence. As far as we know,
Democrats were excluded from p%artici-
patton in the celebration. This was
most proper. The compliment TO the
integrity Of the Democracy we CRATE
fully acknowledge. SO much for unity,
peace and concord, and the fears of the
Abolition Communist party that the
Democracy viii carry this State in
November. We notice that General
" Freedman's Bureau" Howard was
absent from the gathering on the banks
Of the Schuylkin on Wednesday. He
certainly was invited but 80 great a
negroist could not give up fighting

A VETERAN GONE.

-
Hon. Moses Hampton, ex President
Judge of the District Cont of Allie
gheny county, died at his home near
Pittsburgh, on Monday, June 24tb, in
the 18th year Of hisagc. The Cambria
Freeman, in referring TO the death of.
Judge Hampton, says ain 1885, SO
and 81, when anti Masonry had be-
come a political power in this State,
Judge Hampton, who was then a rising
young member of the Somerset bar,
was a frequent attendant at the rcgu-
lar terms Of Court held in this county,
and is well remembered by our older
citizens. On more than one occasion
he addressed meetings of the anti-Ma.
sonic party in the Court room, and
was some times concerned with other
counsel in conducting the numerous
prosecutions for libel instituted by
prominent citizens against the erratic
but gifted William B. Conway, then
the editor OF the widely circulated
Mountaineer, published IN this place,
and who afterwards died in Iowa as its
Territorial Secretary. The well-known
Charles Ogle, Chauncey Forward,
Joshua +. Cox and Jeremiah S. Black,
all Somerset lawyers, also attended the
Courts hero during the years we have
mentioned. Besides these, Gen. VIM.
R. Smith, of Bedford, John G. Miles,
of Huntingdon, Daniel Stanard and
William Banks, both of Indiana, were
regular attendants. OF ali this bright
array of legal talent Judge Black is
the only one who survives, having &C
quircd an enduring fame to which
none of the others could successfully
aspire. AS an able lawyer and an up
right Judge, Moses Hampton enjoyed
in an eminent degree the respect and
confidence ofthc people of Allegheny
county"

MRS. CAPTAIN jerks.

The Potter Committc caught a Tar
tar in the person OF Mrs. jerks.
Whether she is any relation to Captain
links of the Horse Marines, deponent
sayeth not. We rather think she is
the old Horse Marine himself. She is
the woman that is supposed to know
all about the letter Sherman wrote
which duplicates him in the Presiden-
tial steal. He wouldn't swear that he
did not write the letter, but they get
q woman 10 como in and swear she
dictated it, and by p~ertness and brazen
impotence to relieve him from a load
he could not shake off himself She
was u female politician among the
thieving politicians of Louisiana, and
while on the stand sworo that ~ did
not know in the morning what my
politics would be in the evening |"
And that the end justified the means,
especially in Louisiana politicsl" With
this declaration of her degraded princi-
pies, she is put forth and accepted by
the partizans of the opposition as a fit
witness TO prove Sherman innocent OF
what he would not swear himself that
he was not guilty How the mighty
have fallen And upon what a slender
and rotten thread the members of the
party of great moral ideas is willing to
hang to escape the fall that await them,
but which they are so anxious to avert !
But Mrs. J. has made some fun for
the Committee, eve if she has made
herself ridiculous and the mar she
would shelter pitiful ! She has shown
herself to be a gay old gal As the
New York Sun poet puts it, to the
tune of Captain Jinks Of the Horse
Marines, lot us sing, brothers, sing
/ ain Mistress jerks Of the Sherman crew,
And / mean to swear John Sherman through,
In spite Of all that he can do
For I come from Louisiana.
/ am pretty well versed In politics,
And the various sorts | neatly mix,
For I'm fully up to all the tricks
That prevail in Louisiana.
My few remarks are cut and dried,
And Sherman himself the tale has tried,
And it's hard TO prove that / have lied,
Though / come from Louisiana.
So each august committeeman
Must keep as silent as he can,
Aud let me proceed with the little plan
Which I brought from Louisiana.
In a short, set speech the case I state,
And Sherman l fully oxonerate
From all the wrongs, botn little and great,
That occurred in Louisiana.
Now, there you have IL, and that's enough
It's easy to sec that I'm up to snud,
And needn't try to cut up rough
With a woman from Louisiana
Why can't you let me alone, | say
Take OF that oock-eyed man, l pray
We never were treated in any Fuch way
o there In Louisiana.
He tangles my story-can't you sec p
And makes me say more than lie good for me
Although ! am smart as any can be
Who come up from Louisiana.
/ did It myself. but refuse 10 sweai
To whom, or why, or whom, or where,
| wrote or dictated that letter there,
which Strengthened up Louisiana.
You don't believe ~ ia have you to know
That at home we never treat witnesses 50,
And | want to pack up my things and go
Straight back 10 Louisiana.

TIE ERANpS.
The Naval Committee OF the House


ants that ex SECRETARY OF the Nav
Eo0isDll uo ino ,aiS 5HoJS1 ffS
4 OF engineering, construction, and
provisions and clothing, deserve the
severcst ccnsurc fer their conduct in
the disposition Of public property, in
making contracts, and in contracting
Indebtedness beyond Interpretations
of Congress and the Committee pro
poses that tho testimony taken by il
shall be referred to Hayes with the
recommendation that all the parties
who are shown by it to have violated
$50 law may be tried and punished.
The Committee finds that Robson
expended sl62, OOO, 900. They find
that he expended forty or fifty millions
of dollars realized from sales Of public
property, that he should have turned
into the Treasury. They declare that
he and his subordinatcs have violated
every protective enactment of law
made for tho security Of public money.
He has bought material without ad.
vertisemcnt or public competition, and
has disposed Of property in the same
secret way ; that 1t has " met with the
evidence Of irrcguIarity, extravaganza
and fraud at every step"
In view OF these findings there can
be no doubt Of the imperative necessity
upon Congress TO bring the accused to
trial. Mr.. Robson, Mr.. Wood, Mr..
Hanscom and Mr.. Watulough, who
arc the ex-oflcials of the Navy who
are principally condemned, will need
to demand u v~indication at the hands
of the law, fthoy believe IT can afford
it to them. The charges are plainly
made and must be squaroly met.
Congress has just appropriated sew
eral millions Of dollars in payment Of
contracts unlawfully made by the Navy
Department. The argument was that
the country must stand by the acts Of
its agents. 1t availed to secure the
approval Of Congress TO the payment
Of millions of dollars of rotten claims
to such guilty contractors as Roach.
1t ought not to have so awaited, and il
would not il these contractors had not
brought improper influences to bear
upon Congress TO secure their money,
That the argument is only permitted
by Congress to unlock the Treasury
to claims that wants TO pay is apparent
enough from the refusal of the Senate
TO pay Hayes the $4,000 he expended
without authority oflaw. These Naval
contractors have been too much for
the virtue of Congress, and no doubt
they will be too strong to permit the
effort recommended by the House
Committee to punish the guilty to be-
successful. - Lancaster Inteligencer.

A PROPER INouIRY.-Who will make
the disturbance ? asks the Albany
Argus. will the Democratic majority,
who were defrauded Of the results of
the election? MOI at all. The time
tor them to have violently disturbed
the machinstors who overthrow the
republic in which the will of the people
was the law Of the land, was when
Hayes was inaugurated amid the re-
strained anger of an outraged people.
Will the Republican minority? With
what decency can they provoke disor-
der at the exposure of the crimes of
Hayes and his agents? Are they pre-
pared to indulge in lawless acts p
True, they lawlessly supplanted Tilden.
Are they willing to go farther, and in
yoke disorder by tumultuous opposi-
ton to ~retribution by their crimes ?
The great mass of the people, in both
parties, will frown down any such re-
bcllious hostility to the lawful exercise
of tho power of Congress.
Clearfield Republican. [volume] (Clearfield, Pa.) 1851-1937, 1878-07-17
PROPER VIEW.

The Democratic party must fail to
retain the confidence of the believers
in Jackson and Jefferson teaching, or
gain the confidence OF the rising gener-
alton Of thinking men, when in every
conflict in which the principles are to
be tested, those who now claim TO be
the leaders surrendered before the con-
fict begins. 1t is ~discouraging to see
how easily those, who after seeking by
all known means the positions of rep
resentatives Of the Democratic party,
either because too ignorant or too cor
rupt in some instances, avoid the issues
which the party ought to make against
the Abolition Communist party in the
Federal Congress on many questions
of great public interest.
1t is n of the signs OF a lack of the
proper education of those who make
themselves political candidates, that
they are content to be candidates, with
out being qualified for the positions
they seek.
To undertake the responsible duty OF
teaching the people on subjects which
oncer their welfare and happiness, TO
legislate for the best interests of the
people, to hold up the standard of par
ty principles, to maintain and support
what are the distinctive features OF
the Democratic organization, to in
struct those who desire TO learn what
is Democracy, and why one should be
a Democrat, and demonstrate to all
thinkers Of the youth of the country,
that representative constitutional gov
erment can only DO preserved by a
close adherence to the cardinal doc.
trincs which constitute the very founda.
ton OF the party OF the people, the party
Of Jefferson, and the Fathers. To be
able todo this,as everyleader of the par
ty ought to be fully competent to do,
requires far more than the agitation of
political c%andidature for Office.
These things should be considered,
and candidates should be rejected, if
