■ ©ttutfeaH* HfwHwl.j FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 12. 1879.

During the last four years of Democratic control in the lower House of Congress $84,090,000 has been saved. At Monticello, last Friday night, during the absence of Sheriff Hay, some unknown person procured the keys of the jail and made a general delivery of the inmates of that institution. If the evidence taken by the Wallace Committee in Massachusetts co’d be transferred to the Cctton Mills of Augusta, Macon and Columbus, Georgia, it would be considered excellent campuign fodder. The shot gun is rather a terrible argument in politics—more terrible if not quite so tantalizing as the shoemaker's awl which good Repuolioans were lately wont to use to drive naturalized citizens from the polls. How grateful it must be to the refined tusD* of Rhode Island and Massachusetts that means more delicate and refined has been bestowed upon them for the control of elections. ~4*»— —. “The Delphi Times challenges the Onion to name over the ex-soldies of Union army who are now editing republican newspapers in Indiana.”— Union. And the Union replies, in substance, that It prefers “to wait and see whether the Solid South party is to control the governmenV’ etc., etc. The Union could have given the list in much less space than is occupied by its rejoinder. Theiefore ics intended sarcastic response is rather “thin.” Fraud Hayes and Sherman forked over $1750 00 to stay execution oa the personal property of Cassanave, at Now Orleans, for a few months’ when they will be expected and required to meet the balance of the judgment. By that time the Fraud will liuve saved a right smart sum from TildOn’s sal try, and Sherman will make a good haul in the shape oi interest made by a bank from Government funds on which it ynys no interest. ’ What a repulsive spectacle to wituess the chief executive anti a High cabinet official compelled to get down on their knees aud shell'out" on the demand of such scoundrels as the Louisiana returning, board thieves and liars.

Judge Miller’s Confession.

Two years and a half ago Mr. Justice Miller came down from his place on the bench of the Uuited States Supreme Court anti took this oath: “I do solemnly swear that I will impartially examine and consider all questionssubmited to thecoinmissiou of which I am a. member, and a true judgment give thereon, agreeably to the Constitution and the laws, so help me God.” Evidence was brought before Mr. Justice Miller showing that the lawful vote of Lo lisiana belonged to Mr, Tilden and Mr. Hendricks by a majority on the popular vote of the btate, of more than eight thousand; that a conspiracy had been formed at New Orleans to defraud the people of Louisiana of their voice in tha election of a President; and that the socalled electors had no title to represent Louisiana in the electoral college save what they derived from forged certificates, perjured affidavits, and shameless violations of the law —that their claims rested upon a fabric of fraud without a parallel in the experience of the country. On the evening of Friday, February 16,187 b the Electoral Commission, b.v its infamously memorable vote of eight to seven, gave the vote of Louisian'' to Rutherford B, Hayes. Mr. Justice Miller voted with the eight, not with the seven. With all the evidence before him, with the solemn language of his oath rtill fresh upon his lips, he voted nine times in succession to exclude the facts, the right, the truth, from consideration, and to give effect to the frauds of the conspirators. His vote put Hayes iu the office that belonged to Mr. Tilden. The one excuse that could be offered for Mr. Justice Miller’s share in.that great iniquity was that ho voted under mistake, under the delusion that Hayes was really entitled to the vote of Louisi ana. Even the politicians who sat with him in judgment, the unscrupulous partisans like Morton and Hoar, sought to the end to keep up the pretense of acting under conviction.— But recently, at Block Island, in speak ing of Mr. Tilden in presence of several gentlemen well known to the country, Mr. Justice Miller sairl: “He WAS ELECTED IN LOUISIANA J THAT IS, HE GOT EIGHT OB TEN- TKOUSAND’MOBE ACTU Mj votes thebe than Hayes.” The vote of Louisiana belonged to ’l’ilden; Tilden was legally elected President of the United States in 1876-; Hayes has no right to be in the White House; the decision of the electoral commis aion was fraudulent and false, and- in the face of the facts—all this is truth that has already passed into historv. But, us far as we kuosv, no one of the right who consummated the Fraud hail ever confessed this truth until Mr. Justice Miller confessed it at Block Island. It is a mos t extraordinary and a most humiliating confession to come from the lips of a man who has been honored and trusted by the people of the United States as Mr. Ju»>' tlce Miller ha 3 been honored and trusted.

The Harrow Gauge Celebration and Barbecue at Delphi.

GREAT CROWDS PRESENT. Tlie Toasts and Responses. [Special to Indianapolis Journal.] Delphi, Ind. , Sept. 4th.—The first signs of celebrating the completion of the 1., D. and C. railroad to Delphi on September 4th were visible to a large and hungry crowd on Tuesday evening last, when-an ox, dedicated to the festivities, arrived on a triumphal car from the plains of Jasper county. A party of about three hundred carnivorous individuals had assembled to receive him at the depot. The animal was decorated with flowers, escorted about the streets, had his picture taken, and an attempt made to do him proud generally. It was a present from A. McCoy, president of the- road, and a few friends. The site selected for holding the celebration was the public square, a very inviting place, as Delphi is said to have one of the finest court-house yards in the state. A great crowd was present. Sixteen carloads came from Monticello and Rensselaer. A free dinner was given by tbe people of Del phi to all, regardless of race, color or previ' ous condition of aliment. Ample preparations had been made for it, numerous tables being erected in the square, together with a large vat of ice water to supply the thirsty. In the morning the procession was formed as follows: Lathrope’s silver cornet band. Members of the fire department in uniform. Mayor, council and city officers. Guests of the city. Citizens.

After following out the line of march the caravau entered the court-yard, where, after organization of the meeting, an address of welcome was delivered by Mr. E. W. Hubhard, of the Citizens’ Bank. In substance, Mr. Hubbard said: Communities Btop at times to note marked points in their progress, and the present occasion is of that character. Although the portion of the road complete is but a link, yet it is of such importance as to assure its completion. After alluding to its early difficulties, he said these trials have served to so crystalize the organization that its future progress will be more certain and prosperous. In the present state of affairs railroads are a necessity. They tend to civilize our people and fosser the moral and material resources of the country. No people can command respect or attention without them. Through the agency of railroads a now era begins to dawn upon us, tho full fruition of which we shall realize when this line connects Indianapolis and Chicago, and we shall enjoy and develop the benefits nature has bestowed upon us. With such facilities we can invite people and capital, and may look for a large increase by immigration. When a new period is dawning upon the whole country we have a highjneentive to effort. The industries of Europe are prostrate and her people flocking to this country, which is now in a position to receive and'care for the oppressed and poor of the whole earth. Mr. Hubbard said it was to be hoped that there would be but a brief pause for congratulations, and the enterprise would be pushed on to completion. The management of the road deserved the highest? recommendation for its triumph over past difficulties, and should' and Would receive the aid necessary to finish l the work. The friends from abroad were heartily welcome in our midst, and the hope was extended that these new and pleasant' relations would be but the beginning of yet ; more auspicious days to come. ColonelS. N. Yeoman; th’e general manager, responded, saying that he congratulated the people on the present? state of the enterprise, but continued effort was necessary. They should do this, because the work would prove a- solution of the cheap transportation question and develop the latent wealth of the country along the route. The management accept the kind sympathy of the people,-and in return can say that they promise the rest of the road in a shorter time than was expected. To those who had brought obstacles in the way of and doubted the narrow gauge sjstem, forgiveness is extended on condition that they abandon that broad gauge which leads to-financial purga tory, and turn to the narrow gauge' w-hieh leads to wealth and prosperity. Then came the toasts by Mr. Judson Applegate, master of ceremonies, which were responded to hy the following gentlemen of

Steele, Isaac Jackson, Jos. Gwinn, L. E. Mcßeynolds, John Sims and others. In the toasts citizens from Frankfort spoke in favor of continuing the road to that place. Burlington citizens responded that railroad men, like one of old, went to their own and their own received them not, and now they had turned to Gentiles whose time must be fulfilled, and .Burlington must have the road. Representatives of tbe Indianapolis Board cf Trade, Major Palmer, Wm. Scott and brother, Mr Budd, Mr. George J. Murray and W. Baker were present and made some interesting remarks. Following this came the grand free feast, lasting from 12J p. m. till 2 o’clock, at which abundance and variety attested (he generous hospitality of the people of Delphi and vicinity. The conspicuous dish, of course, was the Jasper county calf, which had been all the previous day in preparation, employing all the bake-sbops in the town At 2 o’elock a free excursion on the now road took place to Monticello, the train leaving here at 2 and reurning at 7 o’clock In the evening a select ball of the uppertendom of Delphi, Monticello and Rensselaer, was given in the city hall. The 1., D. and C. railroad now extends from Delphi to Rensselaer. On the northern end of . the road no work is at present being done. At Delphi the road will be diverted from the course originally laid out for it, and instead of reaching Indianapolis vft, Frankfort, Clinton county, will go through Burlington, further east. This branch of road is under a new company. W. F. Lytle, of this place, being president. The people along the new route are holding railroad meetings, and all seem anxious for its immediate continuance. *

How to Tighten Tires.

I have found the following way to tighten wagon tires, says*- the. Home and Farm, to be successful: “Apply leather rings between the on the outer ends of the spokes and the corresponding por ions of the felloes, which-may be done as follows: Procure a number of small pieces of leather, from an inch- and a half to two inches-in diameter; with a sharp knife and a compass, or a cutting punch, make round notes in the center of these pieces, and make a straight eat from the took to the outer edges of the pieces,, so as to form open rings. The holes must be made of a size that will nicely fit the tenons on the out ends of the spokes.—

Place a fulcrum on the top < f the hub, on which place your lever with theshort end under the felloe, near a spoke; have tin assistant bear on the other 6nd sufficiently to raise the felloe, and expose the shoulder and ten on of the spoke'; open your leather and fit it nicely around the tenon, holding it to its place while your assistant relaxes the lever, and settles the felloe firmly upon the spoke by a blow or two upon the tire. Having repeated the process with a sufficient number of spokes to make the lire .all t ight, trim off the projecting leather even with the surface of the spokes and yourtask will be done. If jour pieces of leather should be spongy, hammer them down before using. —The annual meeting of stockholders of the 1., D. & C. R’y company for the election of directors was held at this place on the 3rd instant. The old board was re-elected with the exception of Jos. C.
