CoNCLI SION.

In conclusion congratulate you and the
people of the State that in all the excite
ment Of the past four weeks no act of yio-
lenee has been committed. that through all
and over all the majesty of the law has been
sustained. Our fathers brought to this con
tinent two noble principles, one the love of
liberty and the other a respect for law
These qualities working together have built
up the grsndest ge,ernn.lHt the world has
ever known. The love of liberty sometimes
leads beyond the liberty to do right The
respect for law checks and regulates this
spirit. II has ever been our guide in all the
history Of our State. Ii has triumphed in
the great crisis through which we have Just
passed and il is credit to the law abiding
citizens Of all parties that such is the case.
Representative government is stronger for
this test The history VI this period viii
mark one of the bulwarks of constitutional
liberty. 1t will serve as beacon light shin
ing down through the ages to keep the ship
of State from the reefs and rocks that lie
along her course. Great Applause.)
tSigned.) DANIEL +. DAVIS.

lures during the same period were Si.3l6.-

Dec. 81. 1873. Of s69. il3.47. On the first
day Of January. 1880, As appears by the re-
port. the bonded debt Of the State amounted
10 the sum Of sj,siS 800 from which. de-
ductlng the present amount Of the sinking
fund, 81, l66.lj9 leaves the debt at 81 .6o2.-

there will become due S2,s26, 900 The last
named sum is provided for BY the sinking
fund Of ls6s. The other sums named are
not provided for and must be paid OF re-
newed as they mature. The &C; Of Feb. "A.
1875, as amended by chapter So, laws of
1878, authorizes the STATE Treasurer to is
sue new bonds for the purpose of renewing
and extending the bonds falling due as be-
fore stated, except these provided for by the
sinking fund. the bonds so issued 10 be paw
able TO the amount of s200, 900 in 1890. and
10 the amount OF 100000 each succeeding
scar. No steps have been taken BY the
treasurer to renew and extend any Of the
State bonds. The bonds falling due August
IL, 10 the amount of >307 900 must be paid
or renewed.
1t would be gratifying to pay this whole
amount as 1t natures, but owing TO the pres
ent condition of the treasury and the ex-
pense forced upon the State by the recent
political complications ii may be difficult to
meet the whole amount this year. | would
therefore recommend the renewal of the
bonds maturing this year so that 500 900
be made payable in one wear, 100000 in
tive years, and sloI 900 in three years, at
rate Of interest not exceeding ~ per cent

of one hundred thousand dollars for that
purpose this year. and NAV seem to many
burdensome. but the policy Of our State has
long been to pay its debts at maturity. By
tia; course the credit of the State has been
maintained. All measures tending to an
early payment of our debt not only reduce
the interest charge but in the end are best
for the real good Of the people.

Instead of giving expression to the voice
of the people by counting returns of votes
according to Law and the plainest dictates Of

subvert the will of the people, as expressed

did plunge the State into disgrace and al

otto and law abiding qualities of our citizens.
There can be no half way ground in regard

condemnation of every honest and patriotic
citizen. That IT may serve as a warning in

that railroads IN those localities must be

THE ELECTORS.

Under the names of Garfield and
Arthur will be found in the CITIZEN
this week correct list of the names of
the Pennsylvania Electors. As these
are the persons we vote for, and not
for Garfield and Arthur direct. it is
important that the names of the Elec-
tors be correct 1t will be recollected
that four years ago serious difficulties
arose in the returns from some of the
States as to the names and qualifica-
tions of some of their Electors. And
while we have this mode of electing
our President, these Electors are an
important part of the machinery. The
list for this State has been carefully
revised by the Chairman of the State
Committee and are believed to be cor
rect as to names and all fully qualified
to serve in that capacity.
