the Democratic party has got on hand all it

power to create committees to investigate what
its friends have done mp to date. and to hold

week by Judge Gary, The motion for a
new trial had been elaborately argued
some weeks before by the counsel for
the prisoners and the District Attorney
in opposition. Spies. Fischer and Lingg
occupied all of Thursday afternoon ses-
sion of the court in denouncing the un-
fair manner of their trial. defending
their revolutionary notions and inveigh-
ing against the present organization of
society. They were followed on Friday
by Parsons and Fielden, each OF whom
spoke at great length and occupied the
whole OF the dsv. On Saturday the

y DISPATCH was sent from CleaTfield
last week to the Philadelphia Press and
published in that paper on Saturday
morning in which it was falsely, wilfully
and maliciOusly charged that when
Chauncey f. Black was al Bellefonts
on the Wednesday previous he said in a
conversation with some of his friends
There are $500 Knights of Labor in
Pennsylvania, and 1 will get three
fOurths of them the arrangement has
been made and Beavers managers cam

was in PittsbuTg on Saturday ard in
dispatch to the editor of the Press pro-
nOunced the charge to be "a pure lie
that it contained mot a syllable Of
truth. nor was there any pretext what
ever for the falsehood. - He also tele-
graphed to Mr.. HenseI, Chairman of
the Democratic State Committee, that
1.-THE story printed 10 the Press is a

made by which he Black would get the
votes of three -fourths OF all the Knights
of Labor in the State" Even il sach an

would not be silly enough to boast abont

ization is non political, and the candidate
who is stupid enough to declale that he

TIE Democrats in the Westmoreland.
Fayette and Greene district have at last
arrived at the conclusion that they can
afOId to run two candidates for Con-
gress, Gilbert T. Rafferty,, of Pittsburp.
and ex-Lieutenant Governor John Lat
ts, Of Greensburg. Both of these gen.
tlemen sIe now In the field, each
claiming TO BE- the regularly nominated
candidate, Rafferty, oasing his claim
upon the fact that fire OF the nine origi-
nal couferrees voted for his nomination.
although it was subsequently repudiated
BY each OF the three Democratic County
Committees, as we'll as by nearly all tie
Democratic papers in the district, and
Latta resting his claim upon a unani-
nous nomination early last week by the
HetC conferrees elected by each of the
three counties. This double headed
arrangement will surely terminals In
the defeat of both Rafferty, and T.atta
and the election Of Mccullough. the
Republican nominee. although Mr..
Latta, when he was in Pittsburg at tl,e
close OF last week, assured Chauncey F.
Black that there was no doubt about
bis election. A candidate, however, is
always a poor judge of results. and
hstts's wish is doubtless father to his
thought. 1t is humiliating spectacle
to see strong Democratic district thus
imperilled at least, if not absolutely
lost through personal riyalries and local
dissensious. A heavy responsibility
rests some where for this blunde1 which
is worse Than a crime.

As was universally anticipated. when
the Congressional conferIees in the
Crawford, Mercer and Butler district
failed after repeated efforts to make
nomination and referred the Disagree
mant to the Republican State Committee
for final decision. that body at its meet
ing in Philadelphia on Wednesday of
last week nominated W. B. Roberts, one
OF the oil millionaires of Titusville, in
Crawford county. Roberts was one of
the three contestants for the nomination
before the Congressional conference and
had been Qusy's candidate at the Re-
publican State Convention for Congress
maD-at-large, but was defeated by
Osborne. the present member Q1ay
wanted him nominated at the State
Convention in order to bleed him freely
during the present campaign. His
nomination by the State Committee will
enable Quay and Cooper to demand and
receive from him a most liberal dona-
tiOn. The selection of Roberts by the
Committee affords another instructive
illustration of the potent influence of
money in political affairs. What will
be the outcome to the best interests of
the country of this domination Of the
power Of wealth in controlling aud die
tating Congressional nominations, is
not difficult question to answer

Up to last Tuesday evening the Re-
publican Congressional conference of
this district, which re-assembIed at
Somerset on Wednesday Of last week,
had not succeeded in making a nomina-
tion. If its members can't agree upon
a candidate they had better abdicate
their power aud request the Republican
State Committee to complete the Job for
them. They have late precedent for
adopting this course in the action of
the Republican conference in the Craw-
ford, Mercer and Butler district. Coo
per's committee can dispose of the
wrangle in less than an hour, but as at
least three of the candidates have. or
ought to have, a very decided impress
sion in regard to what the State com
mittee would do, they will be certain to
repudiate any proposition of that kind
IL It should be offered in the conference.
