In answer to a eoßinuiiiication, the Attcr,rioy General recently gave the following opinion: Dear Win—lour favor of yesterday received. The decision of ilie stipe rior court, of Marion county, holding that the attempted exemption of wid ovvs, etc., from taxation on S6OO of •property under certain circumstances is unconstitutional, is so manifestly right tine I think the taxes should be collected without regard to (ho provisions of section 7 of the tax and assessment law of 1872. Respectfully, W. W. Woollen, Attorney General. Referring to the-utility of the negro exodus to the Republican party in Indian, the Chicago Tribune says: * * • * * * ‘*New comers vote in Indiana upon six months’residence in the Wlale. These thousands darkies will all be voters n -xt fail. They have mostly settled in the Eighth district, which the Democrats carried last year for congressman by 1,010 majority, though the Republicans carried it in iolG, electing Hunter by 1,100 majority. What Voorlmes & Co. fear is, that, this black Republican ke iNFOitCKiiENT of bone and muscle will redeem the Eighth district next fall and turn the balance in several counties for legislators, who elect, a senator in place of McDonald, whose teym expires March i, 1881. That h wane the shoe pinches. The stream of colored laborers from North Carolina, "however, continues to pour into Indiana, Dan Voorhees’ protests to the the contrary, notwithstanding a, ■■ all who arrive previous to next May will be entitled to vote next fall in Indiana, which is thus gradually ceasing to be a doubtful State.” And the Rensselaer Republican co d with equal candor and honesty verify the above statement of rfie Chicago Tribune, yet through correct forebodings that the truth would not pan out in the interest of its party, it seeks to impress its readers with the idea that only a few negroes are emigrating into the State, and that they are coming of their own accord. It know* better.
