•Liza Pinkston, a Hay©B elector, i» dead. Topeka. Kansas—just t ink of it - went Democratic at the recent municipal el e 00. To* Democratic nominee for Gov* erooi of Georgia, vacant bv.death of Gov. Stephens, was elected without opposition. 7 The Ohio Democratic State Con ventlon will be ueld at Columbus. June 21st,for the nomination of officers.

Alexander H. Stephens was in public life forty years and left an estate valued at $12,000. John Sherman has been in public life less than forty years, and is a millionaire. It Is said that ex-Bena*or Kellogg, of Louisiana, is so far a vie tm of superstition that, although a wealth* man, h« hasjuever yet made ** will, be ieved that if he did ao his death would immediately follow. Mr. Kellogg’s counsel gives noth * that he will raise the issue that the .statute of limitations has run in favor of|biß client. This would indicate that the ex-Senator L not afflicted with a desire to prove his innocence so muob as be has professed for thepast lew mouths.

Bora* scamp Is traveling through the State representing to ex seldiers that they are entitled to 160 acres ol land, and filing claims Tor them in office at Washington, probably pocketing considerable fees. The claims go in the waste basket at the depart* Blent, being entirely worthless. The Indianapolis Saturday Review thinks that Mr, Fishback.s salary as a Federal officer shculd deter hito from writing soon damaging letters to Congressman Peelle. There is something soothing about a big sal* arv, yet Mr. Fishback continues giying things nw«»y at a terrible rats.

In a rece t letter to the New Tork Sun says that the stamps issued to those who sell liquor are eyid enoes only that the United States tax on liquor sellers is oaid, but that these stamps are in no sense alioeose to sell.

la Rhode Island, which is a Repub* lie an State, a voter, if be be of foreign birth, must be >ossessed of property to the value of $ 34 or which pays rest to the amount of $7 per month. Under this law no ma.hr how intelligent a foreigner may be, and no matter how well he served his country during the war as a soldier, when it came to voting the most ignorant negro in the State may be his supor lor. Some of these days when the Democrats get control thers, Rhode Island will get a new constitution which will embrace a little more of ju3tice on the subject of popular suffrage.

Toe Indianapolis Independent: “A gentleman well known in the North* ern counties as a political factor, says that unless the Democrats deal more liberally with that section, in the distribution of Stateoffices, there *itt be trouble in the camp.* The Democrats in the Northern counties will kick up no rumpus with the Democrats of the State.

a backed comkietee of oohfhrehcb. it was alto made to appear that this in. orease was made in obedience to the demand es Democratic and Republican iron masters, who care about as muoh for the good of the people as Mr. Vanderbilt is said to care tor public opinion- If possible, a worse outrage was perpetrated when you came to fix tue duty cm crude iron ore. As to this, you cau not Invent the slightest pretext for an apology. The Tariff i otnaiiauon had reported that fifty oents per tou was a high enough duty cm crude iron ore. It would seem thtu legislators Ueairmg to prefect laborers who work in factories might see that any increase iu the cost of i iw 'material must diminish the profits oi the prupri Lora and the wage- of the workrifsn, xr«u ore, is simply dirt—mother earth. It requires as much skill and capital to get it to market as ii does to shovel gravel from bank to piutturm car. The laborers who shovel this dirt work for $1 a day; Ex. haustless supplies ot iron ore lie upon the earth’s surface in Missouri, Michigan, Virginia and other States. > tax on this ore increases the cost and price of every article made of iron,

WHYTAX[?][?] AT[?]ALL

With a surplus of revenue, wliy not get rid of a senseless imposition much can never be Justified except as a necessary tax under stress of war! Not Mr. Oouger. of Michigan, for whose constituents the country bears the salt and timber taxes, must have his iron ore protected also. Mr. Mahone, of Virginia a late and expensive acquisition to our party, clamored for a duty of two dollars per ton on iron ore. After debate in both Houses the rate fixed by the Commission, viz., fifty centa per ton wss agreed upon.— Your packed Conference Committee took up the matter and of ite own motion—shall I sav—increased the rate to seventyfive cents per ton. This was an outrage < upon the public and an insult to both Bouses, but honorable Senators and Congressmen at their bumble pie without a murmur. To have offended Mr. Mahone may have led to the election of a Democratic Secretary of the Senate—a disaster too dreadful to contemplate.

I HAVE MENTIONED THE TIMBEB TAX.

Let ub look at that a moment. Test the sources of our timber supply are rapidly diminishing ii notorious. It is also a well-known fact that the pine lands.of Wisconsin and Michigan have passed into the hands of a Jfew men who control the lumber market of the West 4ffd Northwest* Canadians would gladly send lumber to our markets, which wo'd* cheapen buildiug material and retard the destruction of our own forests. Senators and Congressmen from the prairie States begged Congress to put lumber on the tree list, and in one branch, the Senate, I believe, that proposition carried- But your potent Conference Committee, at the bidding of Mr. Conger, put a tax of 20 percent, ou sawed timber, fit per 1,000 ou boards, 10 per cent, on staves, 20 per cent ou pickets and palings, $2 per I,o* >0 ou clapboards, and 95 cents per 1,000 on shingles, and rou voted for it. This Umber tax folly will make iroubie for our. party in the prairie Stab s. The settler on the prairie has

unless he begins with a good deal of capital. If he goes West by-rail the cost of transporting his fsmily and household goods is quite large—and larger than it ought to be tor the reason that your iron ore tariff and your pig iron tariff, and your iron and steel rail rariff adds to the east of every mile ot railway travel. Arrived at his destination he must build a dwelling, and a barn and enclosures for animals, and on all the material he uses lor these, you impose this, senseless timber tax. It happens frequently that he has no money to buy high-priced lumber, and be builds a dwelling with prairie 8»d. and in this cave he buddies with nis family until bountiful nature give* him a crop which enables him to pajrthe timber tribute you impose upon him for the profit of the yaudaiS w ho destroy our forests. Last winter »bffe were in Washing ton looking after the interests of the public, there appeared in Indianapolis a minister ot the gospel with well-worn garments soliciting aid for a Presbyterian.
