THE INDIANA STATE SENTINEL WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 16. 1876

f i j SXIXtXtTX'JL

WEDNESDAY. AUGUST H. Tee la&t report from Alabama makes It 40,000 against continuing Gr ant Urn under Hajes four ysars longer, Morton says tDti Hayea can't cut loose from tbe party without being broken down. This promises lour more years of Grantism. Partisan baeutta can not get much lower down than for a state officer to perambulate the country making basely false statements against tbe administration of which he is a member, boasting of bis op portunltles for information by reason o Lis position, and thus trying to deceive the people. We mean Loonlrtw Sexton. WillLeonidaa bexton re-raat the falsehoods which he has uttered on the b abject of the aUta debt, or will he adhere to his statements which tbe Sentinel ha proven to be falser We trust that Dr. Woollen "Will carry the facs and figures Into every precinct of the Fourth district, and akthe people if they wish to be reprtssntea by the author of sue1! barefaced falsehoods. Tbe pontaneoua gathering a', the Bites House last evening was a woithy tribute to Indiana's favorite orator. He arrived here -on his way from Washicg'-on aod stopped ever night to attend to some private business, with no thought ol speaking, cr that his presence would be known in the city. S .mbbody caught a glimpee of him, and in five minutes he was notified tbat the Tilden and Hendricks clubs wouU be there immediately to tender him a ne reo ad e. In a very snort time tbe streets were blockaded in front of the Bates to greet bim. Mr. Voorhees responded in bis usual happy style, and cheer after cheer greeted his address. Mra "Vocrheee will ergage in tbe canvass, and that means Immecse crowds wherever he goes. Mr. Voorhees left this morning to attend a professional engagement at DicTiile. Following Morton's "key note,' prominent Republican speakers ia this state, such a9 Curry, Cbarn and otb6r accredited party expounders, ara roundly asserting tbat Grant' administration is tbe purest, most economical and praiseworthy that this nation has ever enjoyed. Thf y take square ground against any nee J of reform. In this they are fair. Republican political leader ara cot, as a matter of fact, in favor of reform, and they are to bo commended for hankly siying so. Bat tbe voters of tbis nation almost unanimously demind a reformation of the most app tiling abuses tbat ever disgraced any governmsat. They can cow xnd?rstand the Republican p?rty aDd act accordingly. Those who are for retrench ment and reform will support the Demo tiatic tUtf and national tickets. There is no otter alternativ. Toere is a marked difference in the trea'raent which Hajes receives from tbe Democratic pre??, and that which Tilden and Headrkks have to endure from Radical newt-pipers and orators. .Bafcre Mr. Tilden was In tbe political arena, he was praieed by Rdieals for honcs'y and Integrity, cow he is at ued and s'andered. But the Ridlcil papers affirm that Djmocrais can not f ay anythitg egalntt Hayes This is complimentary to Democratic troihfulnes?. It Democrats would lie on Hajes as tbe Radicals do about Tilden and Hendricks, he would be posted as a borte thief from Maine to G9crgla. This slanderous p)licy is to ba expected from Radical corruptionlsts. Tbey are fight! eg to retain their grip upon the treasury. Tney see tbe reform movement among tbe people and tremble. They cry Stop, thief!" at Tilden on tbe old principle, to divert attention from themselves. Bat with all their efforts tbey do not succeed in making tbeir charges stick. Mr. Tilden has a character that ia unassailable. No single charge impeaching bis integrity Is sustained. Tbeir charge, tall upon tbe country in their worthiness, and nobody believes tbem. Tbey do Mr. Tilden no more damage than did Morton's attack upon Hendricks, bere iu his own hme. 1 bat Will Hayes Be. Mr. Morton fcajs that a president mus be controlled by those who elect him, Mod if he offends tbem he will be broken down. Tbis may have been intended in tbe way Of a threat to Hayes, or be may have been endeavoring to make a Dolnt against Tilden regardless of tbe very important troth whteti the prrp ition convey . The presi dent is what tbe party makes him. He will not r'.sa higher in political honor and integrity than Lis friends who elect aim. and advise with him. What then must be expected of tbe fu ture administration, in - case Hayes is elected. Manifestly a continuation of the same sort of an administration tbat we have had for tbe last eight years, for we have the same leading pirits woklng for Hayes election who have been cheek by -Jowl with Grant. Tbey in tbe National Convention endorsed Grant and then Dominated Hayes. They do not admit that there has been any general corruption and lence they do not promise reform. The programme that Morton has pointed out if a coctlns ation in t fflce of tbe men wbo are now In. An adherence to tbe sime sort of legislation tbat baa prevailed. A repeti tion of nepotism, gilt-taking and Black Friday pera'iocs, legislation In favor of the rlcr, advantage for the bond bolder r.d rational banke, mere subsi dies, straw bidding, corrupt contracts in publio buildings and other publio work, wasteful extravagancy as in the navy, stealing, as in the Indian department wild schemes, as la tbe San Domingo1

Job, tribery, as la the post trsdersbip "UiDg. allowance oi fraudulent claims,

Congressmen lobbying, (Senator buying their ctfices and selling their influence, tbe publio expense increased, effices multiplied, stealing the revenue and devoting tbe proceeds tor corrupting the elections, bayonet rule in tbe South, eternal hate In tbe North, the white house surrounded by thieves likeBabcock, tbe cabinet filled with men like Harlan, William, Belknap, Robe sod, Delano and Richardson. These and all such corruptions are to be expected under Hayes, tor they have taken place under Grant, and the same men that have made Grant what be Is will make Hayes the same kind of president Grant was; for Mcrion says tbat be will not offend or cut loose from thoee who elected him. Morton expects to control in Indiana, or be will help break Hayes down; Logan will control in Illinois, Cockling in New York, Cameron In Pennsylvania, and to on. They were Gram's friends. They would be Hayes' friend?. It therefore be comes tbe people who would mott cer t iinly have defeated Grant to defeat Hayee, .r according to Morton his administra tion will be tbe same. D j tbe people want any more of Grantism? Do they want a continuation ot huh taxos? Do they wart to pay 90,000 tffice-bolders blgh salaries T Da tbey want a perpetuation of the doctrine of bate. Do they want to fee the Southern states continually embroil!? D) they want in this free republic a third of tbe states ruled by tbe sweri and continually tbreatened with military intimidation? Do they want the memory of a fratricidal war perpetuated iorevei? If so, then we have ceased in spirit to be a republic. Slates are mere conveniences of police ad ministration, free government it overthrown and libf riy is dead. .Morton at tbe Academy, Tbe speech of Morton at the Academy of Music last night is too miscellaneous to be called a key note. It was a sort of 01 lapodrida of political odd and ends intended to be an attack upon tbe Demo cratic party and our presidential standard Dfarers. tie attempts in ms opening re marks a defense of the civil service, and presents an array of figures and tables witb which by his skillful manipulation, be attempts to show that tbe expenses of tbe. government during the year 1875, were only about 175.000,000, when tbe true figure?, as shown by the records ol tLe government and appropriations, is $143,000,000, or nearly twica the expanse ot the governmeat daring tbe administration ot 1S60. But we re serve for future com in ant any nctice ol tbese incorrect ttavemants, and follow the senator, in brief, through bis winding speech. He hears the muttering of the people oyer commercial distress and high ment is more expensive than formerly, in quires, who is respots'.ble for all this op pression? and lays it all at tbe door of tbe Democracy. He Ignores entlr ly tbe fact that tbe robbery and wholesale pillaging ot tbe Republican party made tbe debt twice as large as lit should ba, and taat enough revenue has been collected from the people to pay the national debt since bis party came into power, if it had been wisely and economically managed. Mr. Morion labored rehtlessly through this portion of his speech, evidently conscious tnat his rt presentations were invalid. He therelora ruahes at the lower House of Congresa and at asks tbat body for trjlng to reduce the expenses of the government, lo all tbat he has to say cn tbat sub ,ct it is sufficient to answer ia regard to crippling the service, that tb appropriations already voted by the House are over twenty millions mora tban what Morton says was the net ordinary expenses ot the government lor 1875. Bat still tbe senator is not in bis element on tbat subject, and diverges into au attack on tbe "Confederate House." Then follows an attack upon the Dam icratic platform and the members of the St. Louis convention. Oa tha former tbe senator was not facile or happy. He labored and floundered. Its sterling reform ring was too mach lor him, sod becoming exceedingly mad he launches out venom on tbe convention itself. Then as if suddenly remembering tbat Hendricks was nominated at St. L mis for vice president, and tht be was defeated; at Cin cinnati, be makes a low and scurrilous at tack upon Mr. Hendricks' political record, tbe moot lndecsnt and ungenteel tbat even Morton ever uttered against a political opponent. Then Mr. Tilden comes m lor vit operation and venom, and If tbat dia tlngulsbed reformer had spent twenty years of bis life at Sing Sing, bis character could not be painted blacker. These ma lignant attacks of Morton carry their own relocation on tbeir face. Such an Infamously false portrajalof character condemna tbe man who- uttered them as an unscru pulous libeler and falsifier. Morton dodges the financial question, as b has done daring tbis entire aession of Coo gt ess, and spends a column In abuse of the Damocracy for tbeir efiorts to bring relief to the perp'e. . But saving la Do red on these incidental, and to hi in side ieeoep, with ind.fTdraoi i access, be at last lights upon bis favorite theme the outrage tmlnes- to which he devotes tbe balance of his speech. He ia at borne there. It was the old story re peated again and again in every campaign since the war closed. Tbere seemed to be a paroxysm of pure delight when be clutched the bloody sbirt and wived It ;n toe air. irere was nothing new the same o'd stale staff, tu worsted up. wan a little mote venom and illustrated witb more un(.APfl nn fnna a rt s4 i nfj rrn m fdlafiKVila TCnfr it Is scarcely worth while to comment on

this effort of Morton In answer to tbe de

mand for reform by the people. It will not answer, ths people are tired ot it, and tney are tired of such defenss of the cor ruption of the preasnt administration. Taking a fair survey oi the speech as a whole, we pronounce It one of the poorest of Morton's efforts. It is in no sense a camnaien document for his followers in this state. He attempts a great deal and has accomplished little. Mere awertion and vituperation will not answer in this1 canvass. Morton's party must make a stronger defense than this, - or the people will treat tbe party as summarily as Friedley and Foster did Orth, and tell them to step down and out. There are many points in Morton's speech that will attract attention lor their satanlc malignity. Oae is tbe aitack upon tbe Independent Republicans who favored reform and desired the nomination ol Brifetow. To call such men as Trumball, Julian. Dana, Curtis, Charles Francis Adams, Bowles, Hoadly snd S.allo "the broken-down fugitives from the R'pub lican party who have boen kicked out for incapacity and fraud," is au infamous utterance tbat could only coma from a heart writhing In tbe rottenness of exposed coruytion. Jadge Criifui' Speech. The Sentinel surrenders a large part of its space to-day to tbe publication of tbe speech delivered at Madison on the 10 h inst., by the Honorable John Robert Cravens. The ppaech has great merit as a literary production, and is worthy of careful consideration from tbe fact tbat its author is one ot those earnest anti-slavery men who fonodeithe Rtpablicaa patty. Whu Senator Mortin, Albert G. Porter and many other of tbe present leaders of the Rapubllcau par.y were In lull accord with the Southern people on the subject of slavery, Judge Cravens was battling tn Indiana to build up a public sentiment hostile to the peculiar institution. He was known as an anti-slavery man when to be one required no small amount of courage and sacrifice or political Branding. Fur in tbese days an abolitionist was outride of any healthy, political or ganlzation, and in the is ima ion of many was entitled no more to social tban to political recognition. On the formation of tbe Republican party he became one of its most active members, and there are bu, few men in tbe s ate who did more to Insure its success than be. For many veara he was its leader in tbe Senate, Ha was elected president ef that body, and presided over its deliberations with dignity and ability. Four years ago be went into the Liberal movement, and was tbe candidate on tbe ticket with Governor Hendricks for lieutenant governor of tbe 6tate. As is known, he was not elected, aod since that time he' has been out ot politics. He now com1? bsfora the people, and gives them his reasous for supporting Tilden and Handricks. Tb a: they ars good one?, is evinced by tbe fact tbey are satisfactory to himself. A stadeat ot po litical ecoüomy for many years, with an eJucation adverse to tbe principles of the Democratic party, he nevertheless tbrows tbe prejudices ot tbe past tebind him and bo'dly takes a placa in te grand sroay marching to vic'.ory under the banner of Tilden, Hendricks and R form. The rea sons be has for doing tbis may be found in the soetch we publish this morning. His views on finance are not those of a majority of the Democracy of Indiana, and, while dissenting 'nm this part -of h.s speech we can commend it, as a whole, to tbe careful consideration of our readers. Tbe fact that so many of tbe original anti-slavery men of tbe country are now acting with the Damocratio party is a suf fisieut answer to the charge of Morton and his like, th t tbe Democratic party is bouile to tbe negro aod would re-si slave bim bad it the power. The anti-slavery candidate for tbe vica-presidency in 1843, Cnarles Francis Ada us, and tbe candidate of tbat party for the same c fflce in 1852. Qeorze W. Julian, are both supporters ol oar national lice', and In tbe position he has taken. Judge Cravens is suppoitod by many other men noted for tbeir devotion to tbe anti-slavery cause at a time wbea sue a devotion brought con lamely and social os'.racUm. Lat tbis (act be remembered wbeo tbe old anti-slavery men ot the country come to the polls to vote. Tbe Hon. Frauklin Landers. What tbe people demand in the present reform movement above everything else is honesty in those wbo occupy official station, tbat cast of effl nal inlogrity tbat preserves inviolate" its pledges to tbe people. It such men go before tbe people in a canvass, toe electors know last what to do. The Hon. Franklia Landers possesses political bonety in an cmiuent degree. His faithfulness can not be impeached. When be entered the canvass here two years ago, the views be advocated were not so popular as tbey now are, bat he uttered bis sentiments with the eonviction ot an honest man, and tbe people trusted to his word. He has redeemed his pledges In word and tpirit, at times aaiLBt the popular cuirent, and meetii g the condemnation of aoms of his political friends. Some of his views on bnauce have been extreme, at least tbey bare been in advance of his party's platform declarations, but he has deceived nobody about tbem. Tbe people knew his views, and elected him. He is now again pi iced in nomination, not by his own seeking, cot with h i own wish, but agaicsA his wishes. His friends nave said that be has been a faithful public servant, and they wlsi bim to be returned. It 1, therefore, tbe business of his party friends to see to it that Mr. Landers shall not suffer defeat. Ja speculating upon tbe probability ol

his success and tbe necessary labor to accomplish it, we must take several things into consideration.. And first, we must net be unmindful of tbe unscrupulous efforts tbat will be made for bis defeat. Tee Radicals are yet smaitlng over their defeat two years ago In this aforetime stronghold, and the dastardly acts of the Radical party here last sprmg were made as a provision for further corruption and success this fall. In this city tbey will ap

point unscrupulous j ad gee. Tbe miserable incompetents called tbe city police, however inefficient tbey be in the duties for which they are paid by the city, will not be found wanting when corruption ot tbe ballot-box is made a partof tbeir duty. All tbese things must be taken Into consid eration and provided for by earnestly appealing to the people to see to it thst their will be not thwarted by foul means. Tben again, tbers Is work to be done. Every man in the district does not yet be lieve that tbe present business depression Is caused by R adical legislation. The facts and figures must be brought to tbeir door by speeches, pamphlets, newspapers and personal visitation. Every Democrat awakened to a sense of the alarming corruptions of the Radical party owes it as a duty to his felLw man to strife with othe r, to open their eyes, blinded by po litical prt j adice, tbat they may see and i o longer support a party that is reeking with rottenness, deepoiling the treasury and disgracing tte nation. New, if ever, Domocra s ara expected to do tbeir duty. In tbis district tbe Radical party expect to achieve a state victory. Their only hope, if tbey have any at all, is hers. Two years sgo Franklin Lenders was elected by a handsome majority. What man who voted for him then will desert bim now? What reason is tbera for withholding - further confidence? He baa redeemed his pledges. Amid the Sneers ot men of less minds, though more experience in public life, be ban gone steadily forward, and be returcs to ui in a lew days with the proud onsciousntsa tbat ho has not labored in vain. The resumption bill has been re pealed by the House, aad tbe Democracy aauoiion tbe act in convention and bv tbeir standard bearers. It is therefore every way fit, just and reasonable tbat the labors and faithfulness of Mr. Linder should be recognized by returning him to Congress b a Isr raiHy. The Bloody Shin Conirt -Betwen Hie INtlity of tue oman ttrpuulie ft ihat f the Kvpubiie lu I tin L'ultea BtHteM. In tbe new America o. Eacylrp3dia, page 607, volume 15, tbe historical fact is men tioned tbat a triumph was granted by tbe Senate of Rome to a general wbo had gained an important victory, if the victory bad been gained over a foreign enemy and not in a civil war, and the war had been concluded. Adam, in bis Roman An tiqaity, p'ge 326. say: "A triuixpo. was decreed by tbe Sei ae, and sometimes by tbe people, egainst tbe will of the Senate, to, the gen ral who, in a just war with foreigner," hai by a victory enlarged tie limits of the republic, etc., but tbat "tbere was co Just triumph for a victory in a civil war." Luckey, in his "History of European Morais," makes reference to tbis striking fac. As tbese triumphs were celebrated only after the war was over, bad they been allowed and practiced in caes of civil war, their taudency would bave been to keep aliyo bitterness of feeling among tbe people, to revive memories of triumph on one side and humiliation on the other, to perpetuate oiscord and dis turbance in the ropub'.io Instead of peace and coocord. H-nce, tbey were not tol erated by tbe nobl?secato and people of Rome. Was tbe policy pursue d a wise one ? Wbat was its efloC In building ip tbe great republic? Has not tbe wisdom ot tbe Ro i.an seca'e received tbe approving plaudits of mankind? How different tbe course of Morton and the Republican Kaders in our republic? At eacn recurring election tbe civil war must be fought over, the triumphs o! tbe generals of the vicarious party must be celebrated witb processions, orations and Don Arts, aod sectional and personal bates must be stimulated. And jet Morton professes to be a Cbmt an statesman 1 How inferior in nobility of soul and in magnanimity to tbe Pagan statesmen ot tbe Roman republic! But is his policy wise? Oar republic is one In wbicn domestio peace and concord and harmony are peculiarly necessary to ber material development and business prosperity. Oar ecu a try is large, the variety of her productions is great, differing in different sec ions. Hence, we should eij ;y a vat internal commerce. It should be the great source of oar prosper ity. It is peculiarly important In this respect that sections should not war upon socUols, but tbat the utmost good will should prevail among tbe people of all SaCliOCS. Tbe Testimeny or the Enemy. Tbat Governor lilden Is a practical reformer, and tht bis purpose in enUring tbe political arena was, primarily, to reform abuses, no one with correct information and a disposition to tell tbe truth will, for a moment, deny. The Democratic party did not merely make a piatiorm favoring and pledging retcim and tben hunt up some mere nobody to make a re former ot and palm bim off on tbe people. But in barmory with tbe principles laid down in tbeir plat'orm, tbey soa&ht out the most distinguished reformer la thecooctry for a standard bearer aod placed bim on it where he is at borne. Un til Mr. Tilden was suggested as a probable candidate for tbe presidency his ritht to roe called a reiormer was net questioned by tbe Radical party. His contest aia'cst Tweed was so determined, separating himself at times from, bis political friends.

tbat tbe Republicans snog peans of praise over bis faithfulness, and ws need only go o tbe files of the Radical press of New York o prove wbat his record baa been. The New York Times, tbe leading Republican paper of tbis country, and now Mr. Tilden'; chief defamer, has given columns of testimony for Tilden, which will abundantly prove that Mr. Tilden is tbe man of all others to lead in tv e reform movement In tbe present campaign. We publish elsewhere a collation ot Times editorials, and it should be remembered ttat these were written while Mr. Tilden was a private citfzen, with no political aspirations. Tbey must be accepted as the plain unbiased truth. These utterances present a contrast with tbe present course of tbe Times ridiculous in tbe extreme. To meet tbe slanderous statements that the Times is now putting forth, tbese chapters of Tllden's reform record as presented by tbe Times are reproduced in tbe Sentinel. Let every voter real-

The tacts In tbe c e to v bleb be refers are as follow : Some five years sgo Mr. D. M.
