TIE North American and United
States Gazette which claims to he the
Oldest daily newspaper in America, and
which was for MANY years the organ of
the Federal party, is still tincturcd with
the le;,ven of Federalism. In an c,li-
torial to day it berates the Democratic
party for making judges elective land
niDging the judiciary into the arena OF
political conflict" In another editorial
our Federal contemporary shows its Late
of JeffersOnian Democracy in these
words: Tinkering is the forte of the
Democratic party. 1t is the training.
school of thinkers and cObblers. II never
originated any great public policy in all
its cheQuered existence. But it has often
destroyed what others have b,,iltletl, and
it has caused several great measures to
degenerate into things Of shretis and
patches. 1t has no gratitude Whatever
it has done, of which it can presume 10
boast, it got the idea from Hamilton,
And it has spent a good part OF its ex-
isteDce in cursing Hamilton. The man
who is claimed as the progenitor of the
party was good hater of Hamilton, yet
it was Hamilton's system of finance
which enabled him to emerge from the
executive office with credit and acclaim.
To play IN the hands of such Il party is
something no conscientious Republican
can afford to do"

Hoyt VIII Vote for Stewart.

Governor Hoyt was asked whether he
meant by his letter that he would support
stewart, to which he replied that such
was the implication. To another interroga.
tory he responded that he was for Stewart
and would vote for him. The letter has
created a big sensation. Tho sup
porters of Beaver claim that it will have
no effect on the prospects of the regular
ticket. They are unsparing in their denun-
ciatiou of the governor for his course, and
treat his statement that he had given the
Republican ticket formal support until
now with contempt. Tho Independents
arc highly elated over the governors let.

Trying to Influence knights OF Labor by FRO
renco and Subterfugo.
Packages have been sent out from Pitts
burgh to secretaries of local assemblies of
the Knights of Labor, which, when
opened, arc found to contain regular
Greenback state tickets and state tickets
of all other parties with Armstrong; s
namo substituted for governor. A short
sketch of Armstrong; life is also en-
closed, together with 4 notice worded as
follows
"To the secretary If you have no sym.
pathy with the only labor man ever nOmi-
mated for governor in Pennsylvania, and
prefer rather corporation attorney,
please hand this ticket to some brother
who does believe that labor should vote
for its own candidate and is earnestly of
the conviction that an injury to one is the
concern of all.;'
This notice, printed on slip Of paper,
bore no signature or mark, the only clue
to its origin being the pOstmark on the
package, but the idea was evidently in
tended to be conveyed that it emanated
from the grand officers of the Knights of
Labor, rs it was addressed to local secre-
taries. Mr.. Simpson, the secretary of the
assembly in Oil City, Immediately sus-
pected that all was not right and SO wrote
to Grand Secretary Layton concerning it.
He received reply from Mr.. Layton, say
ing q" never knew or suspicioned that
any circular for political purpose was
being sent to the order. Don't forget
that this order is not and cannot be made
into political or partisan machine for
any party or clique whatever. Enjoy
your full rights as an American citizen
and vote as your conscience dictates"

sorELOU ACQUITTED.

Sympathy f": tho Man Who Killed the
Brother lie Was Trying to Save.
The trial OF a. G.. Soteldo, which has
been in progress for several days, in WASH
ingtOn. has ended in verdict Of acquitted.
The jury were out only about half an hour
Tho result was what has been anticipated
by those familiar with the unfortunate
atfray i'll tho Republican office. Soteldo
has been nearly a year in Jail and took an
airing around the streets aud hotels Fri
day night With good deal of relish. Tho
rumor that Barton was to be arrested for
the crime has no foundation. There was
no reasonable doubt in the minds of Judge
or jury but what SoteldO killed his brother
He was cleared on the testimony Of Bar
ton that he (Barton) held pistol to the
person Of A. NJ. SOteldo and intended to
kill him, but it would not go of, and the
evidence that the younger Soteldo fired to
save his brothers life. The judges charge
was that Barton's action was threatened
felOnious assault to repel a simple assault
and that a brothers Interference to save
his brothers life was natural and justifi-
able, though in this case it had resulted
fatally to the one whose life he had in
tended to save. Much sympathy is ex-
pressed for SoteldO.

Tho Outlook.

Harrisburg Patriot.
It is as certain as that the sun will rise
and set on election day that the Democrats
of Pennsylvania need but vote to elect
their entire state ticket by q majority of
not less than $4,000.
It is no idlo boast to make this asscr-
ton, because the Republicans themselves
have made such a result not only possible
but highly probable. They have divided
into hostile factions and have thus given
the Democrats their opportunity.
The Republican majority in Pennsylva-
MIA. outside of Philadelphia, when the
party was united, rarely exceeded $1,000
and frequently disappeared altogether.
The majority in Philadelphia has gener-
ally cqualcd the entiro majority in the
whole state.
In 1878 Hoyt led Dill outside of Phila-
delphia by only about 1000. AT that
election Mason. Greenbacker, took 10000
moro votes from Dill than Armstrong can
possibly take from Pattison.
Stewart, Independent Republican, will
receive at least 10000 Republican votes
outside of Philadelphia, which will send
2attison to that city with sc, 900 plurality
on tho basis of the Dill vote.
The same kind of attack was made on
Mr.. Dill that is now made on Mr.. Patti.
son. But if the Republicans had lost
GO, 600 votes to an Independent candidate
MI. Dill would have been elected by
nearly 10000 plurality.
The prospect of Democratic success,
therefore, could not be brighter than it is.
1t is only necessary for Democrats to turn
ont to the election and cast their uotes to ,cin
an overwhelming rict0ry.

CHAIRMAN COOrER's people ought to
he little more careful in the distribu-
tion of their documents, so that the right
seed may fall in its proper field. The
Republican managers are operating on
the religious prejudices of the people
through two sO-called religious news
papers, one the Catholic TABLET and the
other the Protestant Standard. They
send the latter to Protestants and the
former to Catholics, when they don't
make any mistakes. But Father kaul,
pastor Of one of the Catholic churches,
has received 4 copy of the Standard,
containing a list of Pattison's employees,
among whom it says there is only
one Methodist, hut plenty of
Catholics. Evidently that was not
the kind of information intended
to be furnished by the Republican com.
mittce to a Catholic priest and the
more work of that kind the committee
does the worse it will be off. This, in
deed, is the case with a great deal of its
work. Mr.. Cooper has hard task GER
tainly to draw in all the dlscordant ele'
ments to his standard and he is show.

playei the trump card in the IIoyt husi-
ness and deserves to receive the credit.
Its editorial Oh Thursday evening,
This Way, Governor" was admirably
calculated to hit Its mark, and no doubt
it went straight to Hoyt's heart, after
the brutal manner in which he had been
treated by Mr.. CamerOn's Harrisburg
organ. Early yesterday morning the
governor telegraphel to one of the edi
tors of the Telegraph his kindly &C
acknowledgement and added, g You
will get the response you wish before

sat down and wrote his open letter and
put it on the wire, even before it had
been revised. 1t was a big Journalistic
strike.

Governor Hoyt Speaks.

Governor Hoyt, if he speaks late,
speaks strongly. He makes no uncer-
tain utterance. He writes with warmth,
point and frankness. lie claims no
credit for early independence that GER
tainly is not his but he shows plenty Of
repentance not only for his tardy recog-
milton of the neel for the revolt in his
party against boss rule, but also for such
share of that rule as he himself is re-
sponsible for. Gov. HOyt has not only
floated along with and in the machine,
but lie has been one Of its prOpellers and
benefciaries. 1t is this last cOnsidera-
ton probably which has had much to do
with tying his tongue to the obnoxious
methods of its leaders, which lie began
fully to realize when he suffered from
their tyranny and selfish impulses. Gov.
Hoyt naturally is a decent man, as he is
certainly an intelligent and able one.
He is much superior Intellectually and
morally to the men who have ruled
his party with 4 rod of iron and whose
favor he has measurably enjoyed. Ma
turally lie is not in sympathy with them.
His decent feelings find no attraction to
their coarser impulses. lie breaks his
coalition with them now formally, rs
long since it was broken essentially. lie
speaks because he says he Is advised that
after the election all the expiring power
of the machine leaders is to be used to
punish those who have brought upon
them the humiliation and defeat that
awaits them in that trial before the p>o
pie. The verdict is not to he respected :;
its lesson is not to he needed !; but the
power which is in the hands of the ma
tiOnal administration, which is ut the
beck of the party bosses Of the state,
is to be used with vindictivc
and savage energy. No peace be-
ing in sight Gov. Hoyt declares for
war-late but effectually. His letter
will command, not less by his position
than by its intrinsic force and truth,
thousands of votes against the regular
and for the Independent Republican
ticket. What asses these Republican
bosses are

Tie oil market in Bradford, on Friday,
was the centre of attraction. Ever since
the monthly oil report the market has been
gaining strength, and Friday it showed
itself: The opening figure was 97!c. 1t
remained this figure during the forenoon,
but during the afternoon session prices be :
gan to ascend. The dollar point was
reached and the excitement was intense.
Men jumped on top of each other, they
were SO eager to secure oil at any price.
The price went up to 81 .O5, and the clos
ing fsure was $1.04. There is great ex-
element, and further advance is looked
for. The market has not been at a dollar
since last January.

THE Nem Eru assails the editor of the
Columbia Herald for supporting Collins,
the Democratic candidate for senator
against Kaufman, the independent can-
didate, and ascribes his course to the in
fluence of Senator Cameron. What may
he the influence moving Mr.. Grier wedo
not know but We know of good motives
that should move him which are amply
sufficient; and they are that Abraham
Collins is fit man for senator, and he
is the Democratic nominee. The Col
umbia Herald being Democratic news
paper, it would be strange, indeed, if it did
not support fit democratic nominees for
office If it did not we should look for i
base motive for its action. If it supported
Kaufman against Collins it would do q
very unjuStilable and unwise thing.
The Democratic policy i'm the Northern

date of Cameron and will vote for him
for senator. If the majority of the Re
publicans of the district want Cameron
to he senator they have a right to have
their senator vote for him, if they can
elect him over the Democratic nominee,
who will. if chosen, vote for Il Demo-
crat and not for Cameron or Stewart or
any ether Republican. Democrats have
no business to meddle in the Republican
quarrel their policy is to mind their
own business, vote for their own worthy
candidates and let the consequences take
care of themselves. 1t is a strange idea,
indeed, of the Independent Republicans
that the Democratic party shall help
them to get control Of their party if
their rarty has not inherent vigor su:li-
cient to throw off its evil leaders, it
must 90 out and give place to party
better led as it is about to do.

SATURDAY EVENING, NOV. 4. lse2.
A Shattered Party.

4 Shattered Party.
The election contest is about over and
nearly every voter has made up his MIND
as to how his vote is to he cast. Upon
the side of the Democracy it has been a
very comfortable campaign, because
there has been unity in the past and great
confidence in the result. They see their
enemy hopelessly divided and delivered
into their hands. The result of Tuesday
is very we'll fOreshadowed, the only
doubt in this state being as TO the
relative vote 10 he cast by the Repubii-
can factions. The hundred thousand
votes that the Independents have been
assigned are very likely to he more. Their
chance of getting the biggest half of the
party vote is very good. The revolt
against the domination Of THE
FAMILY that has so long ruled
the state has extended through
the party from the bottom to the
top. The latest head to fall into
the line is the high head of the governor
of Pennsylvania. He has been instructed
by the masses. His courage to revolt
has come from the inspiration below
him. He sees where the strength of the
party lies, and that it is not in the old
leaders. They are deserted. The loss OF
the election will leave them shOrn of all
psetense of power in the state. The aid
of the national administration will not
keep in them the breath of life. 1t will
Ike left too weak to stand itself. Arthur
will be exhibited rs failure his party
will he shown to be gone. 1t has lived
beyond its natural life by the corrupt
devices of those who had it in hand
Temporarily successful in the fraulu-
lent schemes which kept it in power, it
now is pushed out, ragged and torn and
too farlorn to hope for speedy rellabili-
tation. The defeat which it now en-,
counters crushes it, and leaves it un-
prepared to maintain its existence out
of power. It has no vital force left. BE.
fore it is again felt it must be reorgan-
izei, reclOthed and renamed. There is
nothing left of it but fragments, ,and they
cannot be reunited in the old shape.
