ALL OUR COUNTY CANDIDATES, SAVE
ONE, ELECTED!
AND THAT'S WHY THE DEMOCRATIC
ROOSTER FLAPS HIS WINGS AND
CROWS MOST LUSTILYi

The election in this county on Tues
day resulted in the success of the entire
Democratic ticket. with the exception
of James Myers, one of the nominees
for Associate Judge, who is defeated by
Jos. Masters, the Republican candidate.
The campaign was unusually exciting
in regard to County Treasurer. Mr.. Bar
ker and his friends, having determined,
as it seems to US, as soon as he was NOM
mated, that he must be elected, even if
they called to their aid all the question
able appliances known to political war
fare. We have been familiar with po-
litical campaigns in this county for the
past thirty years, and we never saw a
more determined effort made in any
mans behalf than was made in the in
terest Of F. II. Barker. We do not say,
because we do not know, that money
was attempted to be used in corrupting
voters, but almost every other expedient
was made use of to wheedle Democrats
into his support. Some of the perform
ances of his active workers in the north
of the county, as they were detailed to
US, would make mighty interesting"
reading, but as they signally failed in ef-
fecting their purpose we will let them
remain unpublished. No Republican
candidate can win contest in this
county on the theory adopted by the
JOhnstown Tribune, and by Mr.. Bar
ker's leading supporters in this end OF
the county that TIE Democrats are all
fools and only know enough to teach
them when to come in out of the rain.
Perhaps they will be wiser in the future.

The number of Land Leaguers arres-
ted and thrown into prison il the four
provinces of Ireland is placed at PA. A
novel, but of course ineffective. plan has
been adopted in some parts of the west
of that country for the purpose of keep
ing the mo rent" manifesto before the
tenants. 1t takes the form of prOmis-
soTy note containing a promise to pay
the tent due OF the pay that Parnell
Davitt and the other imprisoned men,
beIs Of the League are released, the note
TO bc signed by the tenants and sent to
landlords, who of course would Tepud-
late any such one-siGed arrangement.
The decisions Of the Land Commission
thus far have been we'll received by the
tenants. hut not by the landlords, who
complain that Lord O'Hagan, the head,
or Chief Justice of the Court, is harder
on them than Mr.. Parnell was, and So
licitorS in Dublin say that they might
nearly as well appear for the landlords

O'Hagan and Ills two associate Commits
sIOnerS. 1t looks as ie the Land act. un-
der the broad and comprehensive inter
probation given of it by Justice O'Hagan
and his colleagues, will be found to pos
sess more virtue OF relief for the wrongs
of the tenants than they were at first
taught TO expect from it. At all events
there seems to be general disposition
on the part of the tenants to give il a
chance TO work out whatever of good
there is in il. which is a most wise and
eminently prudent conclusion for them
to reach, instead of repudiating it in ad-
vance

TIE returns of last Tuesday contest
indicate Bailey's election as State Treas

Wolte's vote in the State will not be far
from $1,000, and Of this number it is now
conceded that not less than ten thousand
were Democrats, who deliberately went
to the polls and By voting for Wolfe de-
feated their own candidate, Noble, and

covered, or invented, by Democrats in
this State of smashing the Cameron ma

"A Little Rock dispatch to St. Louis Re
publican says that 2 man named Thomas
FultZ, while getting out lumber in the noun
tains some miles from BpTTyville, was struc K
bv falling tree and fastened to the ground
Fultz was sleeping under the tree and was
aroused only to find himself imprisoned and
dangerously wounded, with prospect Of p
horrible death from starvation unless dissOl-
ution ensued more speedily from the wound
The unfortunate man was, however, over
taken by more terrible fate. The tree IN
der which he was buried caught fire from the
remains of a camp fire started the previous
night and he was burned alive. The body,
when discovered by his friends, whom his
prolonged absence had alarmed into institu-
ting search for him, was almost entirely con-
sumed.
While Mrs. Fanny Keefer was sitting IN
her kitchen Thursday night, 1T 90 Burke st,
Baltimore, talking with VIM. H GaTrisb,
with whom she had been living for some
time, a son of the lstter, VIM II. Garrish,
IT., pushed a large musket through the win
dow and fired. The weapon was loaded to
the muZZle with duck shot, two or three hun
dred Of which lodged in the woman's body
and head. The affair was envelOped in mys-
terry until Monday, when the police arrested
the boy on suspicion, and he admitted having
done the shooting. He gave as his reason
that since his mother died several years ago
his father had been leading a diSreputable
life. The boy refused to accompany his faith
er to the house of the wounded woman, and
went to live with an aunt. Young GarriSh
saws that, being convinced that Mrs. keefer
was living with his father, he determined TO
kill her. He added that he was soTIythat he
had not killed his father also. The boy was
held to await the result of Mrs. KeefeT's in
juries. She is not expected to live.

The representatives of the French
government who came to this country
about month ago to attend the centen-
nial celebration OF the surrender of Gen.
CORVALLIS at Yorktown, Virginia, on
the 18th of October, 1871, sailed from
New York for home on Wednesday last.

the same purpose, sailed from the same
port on yesterday. During their visit

TIE New York TINES says that the
cry OF potato famine in this country
has caused the Importation of tons Of
the genuine Irish potato to that port
that eight hundred bags of them were
received there on last Monday week, and
that thirty tons in addition were daily
expected on one vessel and fifty tons on
another. Dealers sell them at s., % and
s2, so per barrel. These imported pota-
toes come chiefly from the north Of Ire
land, and one dealer in the article, while
in humorous mood, remarked Even
the potatoes in Ireland cannot live un-
der British rule, and must fly to land

WE call the attention of our readers
to the prospectus of the New York Sun
for 1882, which will be found published
elsewhere. Mr.. England, the'publisher,
promises that by a liberal use of the
means which an abundant prosperity af-
fords, he will make the Sun better
than ever before" This is saying a
great deal, but we do not doubt thatthe
pledge will be literally redeemed. The
San is a most remarkable paper, is ed
tied with the highest ability and is fear
lessly independent in all its discussions
of public measures and of public men.
The weekly edition of the San for the
low price of 81 a year, postage paid, is a
newspaper peculiarly worthy of place
in every household in the land.

THE charge SO often made against ex-
Senator w allace that he owed his cleo
tiOn to the Senate, TO Simon Cameron
and his son, having been repeated by
Chas. S. Wolfe in one or perhaps more
of his public speeches. Mr.. Wallace dis
poses of the matter by publishing the
following denial of the charge in the
Harrisburg Patriot of Tuesday last:
CLEARFIELD. Pa, November THE state
ment made by Mr.. Wolfe that l owed my
election to the Senate to the CamerOns Is un-
true. The reverse is the fact. The Demo
cracy had a majority of eight in the legisla
tnre. | was nominated in the Democratic
caucus by one hundred and six votes out of
one hundred and twenty-five. An effort
was then made to unite the Republicans and
a few Democrats on another candidate. Sem
ator Rutan was the Cameron leader ia this
movement and negotiated with my enemies
Tor two days to defeat me and eject 4 bolter
or a Republican. This movement failed be-
cause Senator Strang and fifteen other anti
Cameron Republicans preferred my election
to that of bolter and boldly said so.

FOUR MEN KILLED AT THE POLLS
-Four white men were killed and two severe
ly wounded by negroes on Tuesday last at
Marion station, Miss. The negroes opened
fire on the whites at the polls while the
election was going on. The whites had no
arms 10 defend themselves with and cOnse-
quently none of the blacks suffered. One
of the men killed was A. T. Harvey, Dem
Ocratic candidate for County Assessor. The
Sheriff, with posse from Meridian, found
about hundred negroes barricaded in the
dwelling house of their leader. Ed. Vance.
The posse were fired upon by negroes as
they approached the house. Another body
of armed men from Meridian went to the
scene OF the disturbance TO assist the Sheriff.
With this exception the election in that
county passed off quietly and orderly
4 Sherif's posse. consisting of about one
hundred men, surrounded Ed Vance's house
TO capture the Instigators and perpetrators
of the murders, and demanded their surren-
der, which was refused. John Vance, aged
y, son OF Ed. Vance, riding up, pointed
a gun at the posse and was shot and killed
A. u warren, of the posse, was killed in
Stantly by a shot fired from inside of the
house Ed. Vance and the negroes escaped.
several negroes in escaping were shot at
and wounded Will Vance, aged about 30
a son of Ell. Vance, was captured and lodged
IN jail. The Sheriff received slight wound
from spent bullet. Hardin Jones, of the
posse, was slightly wounded. Vance and
the negroes fought desperately all day.

ACCORDING to Washington special.
Republican members of Congress are
preparing a bill for the admission of Da-
kOta as a State. This leads the Buffalo
Courier (Dem. to say that if the condi-
tion of public opinion were entirely
healthy such a scheme would not be
thought of The Republicans have cap
tured the Senate by the aid of two Sena-
tors who were elected by Democratic
votes and supported the Democratic
Presidential ticket last year. The bare
and precariOus majority thus obtained
they expect to make permanent by Sc
curing two Senators from the Territory
which last year in the election of Del
egate in Congress. showed a large Re-
publican majority. 1t will be remem-
beTed that il Colorado had not been ad-
mitted to the Union in 1874 the party in
power two years later would only have
retained its control of the Government
by extending the Returning Board frauds
committed in louisiana and Florida to
another Southern State, North Carolina,
where The counting machinerywas in Re-
publican hands. The question whether
Dakota ought to be admitted as State,
considered on its merits, hardly requires
discussion. The Territory at its census
inhabltants-20,0 900 less than Buffalo.
But one half of this city, which con-
tains all the elements of the highest civ
ililation, would make IA more respectable
State than the fluctuating pOpWation of
a Territory which has only been settled
within the last seven or eight years.
There are certainly precedents for the
adGissiOn nf a Territory in the present
condition of Dakota. But likewise there
are precedentS for election frauds, and.
indeed, the scheme in question is moth
ing but ballOt-bOx stuffing under the
forms of the law.
Commenting on this movement, the
Philadelphia Record Und. says that the
proposition to exc out the Republican
strength in the Senate of the United
States by admitting Dakota into the
Union ought not to find favor in any
quarter. Although a usual party ex-
pedient it is desperate one. No new
State should be admitted to the Union
which has not a voting strength suffi-
cient 20 entitle it to representative in
the lower branch of Congress.

Nor the least gratifying result OF the
late election is the defeat of John Cess
ma for Judge in the Somerset district.
A special dispatch trcm Somerset to the
Johnstown Tribune, published on the
day after the election, says "Cessna's
majority in Somerset county is three
hundred. Baer is elected by less than
fifty" Assuming this to be true, we
congratulate the people of Somerset and
Bedford counties on the narrow escape
they made from having their Courts
presided over by rs perfect a specimen
of political demagogue as this or any
other State has ever produced. So far as
fitness for high judicial station is con-
ceTned, Vim. J. BaeT and John Cessna
were cast in very different moulds.
