CamerOns- Y
Last winter our people were shocked with
The election of J. Donald Cameron, the IRE
sponsible son of senator of whom / will
not speak. because he and his acts have be-
come a part of public history, and must be
measured with more deliberation than can
be given in a casual conversation like this.
The public is sick OF these odious
men. and the public will do away with Them
We have destroyed human bondage in the
South: we will next break down political
bond age in the North and South.-FFoDl Il
Speech in Philadelphia, September IA, 1877.
Penusylvania owes much 10 Donald Cam
eron. and his father a. Well-to that honest
and wise old man of whom Pennsylvania
should be justly proud. Donald Cameron
has by his own efforts reached prominent
place in the public eye and established
good position 10 the Senate, not as declsim-
err, but as q faithful and effective worker.
He cannot be hurt by this election, let II go
either way. III Beaver is elected, as elected
he will be- Cameron will be stronger than
ever This will be the logical outcome OF
be-sfgHfaeut that Beaver is Cameron's man.
From Speech IN PittsblTg, October II, 1857
The New York Democratic City Ticket.
NEW YORK, October 17.-At the County
Convention at Tammany Hall tonight the
Union ticket as agreed upon by the joint
conference committees was nominated. 1t
consists of Franklin Edison for mayor; AL
exander V. Davidson, of Irving Hall, for
sheriff; Patrick II. Keenan,, of the county
Democracy, for county clerk; Richard y.
German and George J.. -Ingraham, of Tam
many. for Judges OF the Superior Court, and
Aldermen b. F. Martin, Ferdinand L. Levy
and William III. Kirk, all OF Tamma1y, for
coroners. A resolution offered by Horny
A. Gumbleton accusing Mayor Grace, al
though a member of the Democrstic State
Committee, of being in league with the Re-
publicans TO bargain away votes, and calling
upon the chairman of that body to call
tnem together and expel him as traitor and
a spy, was usnimously adopted.
The union nomination of the Democracy
for mayor is commented on as follows:
The New York Sun says: The Democrats
OF the city have agreed upon a hrst-rate can
didate for mayor. A man who is well
Known and who can be elected. franklin
Edison at the head OF the city ticket will
strengthen Grover Cleveland at the head OF
the State ticket. We congratulate the party
on its choice and on its prospects.
The World says: GAS matter OF politics,
the agreement on the mayoralty arrived at
ought TO be satisfactory to all Democrats.
There is TO be no open bolt from Cleveland
that may be taken for granted. The only
danger was before yesterday, that, three
local tickets being in nomination, the work
ing politicians OF each faction would sell
out the State ticket Tor votes Tor their own
local ticket" a
The II ibune thinks the selection OF Mr.
franklin Edison as the candidate of the
united Democracy has 3 serious look. Mr.
Edison was chairman of The original commit
tee of 100 which gave birth to the County
Democracy organization, and his position IN
the esteem OF the business community is
such that the Republicans, or the friends~of
the Citizens, movement, will h2ES~fo put up
a good man and do a grs"'~ deal OF hard
work 10 beat him.
The Herald decisres that the nomination
was dictated BY Kelly, and advises the citi-
zens 10 nominate Allan Campbell and make
a ticket with the Republicans.
The best opinion is that Edison will be
elected, and that the nomination strengthens
the State ticket.
