"DISREPUTABLE ELECTIONEERING.”

In an article under the above caption, the Rensselaer LWo», last week, gave Vent to its feelings over the discovery of what it evidently regarded as a “mare’s nest.” The Chairman of the Republican | State Central Committee, not having been advised of the recreancy of that paper to Republican principles, sent it a letter containing the following: "I desire to call your attention to the horrible scenes of violence and bloodshed transpiring throughout the South, and suggest thatvou gi*e them as great prominence as possible in your paper, from this time fill the election.’,* * t The Chairman may have been sojpe-* what blamable for not having infoKneJ . himself of the Union's apostacy, and thereby have saved himself the trouble of “eastrag his pearls” &c. It is not I considered as being in good taste to give * publicity to a letter that falls into one’s hands through accident or mistake ; but * no harm being done by the publication, we will not animadvert upon the want of delicacy that prompted it. The Union pretends not believe in the existence of the violence and blood-shed referred to in the above letter. The Northern Democrats professed not to believe in the Border Ruffianism that prevailed in Kansas in 1856. They assumed, before the war, not to believe that Northern men sojourning in the South, were tarred and feathered, and hung, on suspicion of being Abolitionists. During the * war, Union soldiers taken as prisoners of war were mal-treated and starved to death in Libby prison and at Andersonville.— But Northern Democrats said this was ■ not so, and that the accounts of those outrages were published in the Republican papers just before an election, for poI litical effect. And they have been equalI ly as incredulous as to the outrages and I crimes committed in the South, since the war, by the Ku-Klux and White Men’s I League. The Union now acting, indirectly, if not directly with that party, I must be expected to share its pretended i unbelief. Within the last few weeks, I outrages and murders have been perpetra- | ted in the South, which are a disgrace to I civilization, are too well authenticated to admit of doubt. Even the Union | cannot wholly shut its eyes totheir existI ence. It admits “that crimes are committed in the Southern States” but attempts to belittle them by placing them on a level with these occurring in North- ■ cities. No doubt, in the Southern States, fights and affrays occur the same as elsewherp. But there is a class of . offenses happening there, of a political character, and these ape the ones referred ■jto by by the Chairman of the State Committee. Negros and white men sre often : .shot or hung simply because they vote £he Republican ticket. And the peppeJpators o£ j&jse outrages are invariably jEx.-Bdbels. Only a few days ago, members of the “White League” armed and (equipped and carrying the confederate flag, overthrew the State government of Louisiana, and it required the proclama:tion of the President, with an intimation that federal troops would be sent there, to quell the insurrection and re-instate the ; lawful authorities of the State. The | truth is, the spirit of the Rebellion still : exists. It is only the power of the Re- | publican Administration, at Washington,

that keeps it in subjection. The recent outrages in the South have been encouraged by a few local Democratic victories. The late Rebels understand now as well at they ever did, that they can rdy on the sympathy and encouragement of that party. The friends of union, of equal rights and of justice, in the South, look to the Republican party for encouragement They expect, through the party, to keep down, as far as can be done, the disturbances which threaten their lives and property. This, the Republican party has labored faithfully to do; but it is not at all strange that it has not wholly succeeded, as it has been opposed by a considerable portion of those engaged in the Rebellion who have been greatly encouraged by their friends in the North. A Republican victory in the State elections next month, will have a decided effect in quelling the lawless spirit that now prevails to such an alarming extent throughout the South. It will be a manifestation of the determination of the people of the North to stand by the reconstruction measures tof Congress and the rights of the people without regard to race, color or previous condition of servitude. It will show that the President is sustained in suppressing armed insurrections, even if he has to do so at the point of the bayonet. The Republican party is pledged to the maintenance of good government and equal rights. The enemies of these will be encouraged by its defeat. It was, thcre- . fore, eminently proper that the Chairman of the Republican State Central Committee should desire all Republican papers of the State to “give as great prominence as possible to the horrible scenes of violence and bloodshed transpiring throughout the South.” It is right that the people should have the truth, and just before an election they should have such truths as will enable them to vote intelligently. The Republican party has no desire to keep alive the sad memories of the late civil war. But these cannot be forgotten as long as Ex-Rebels persecute and murder citizens for belonging to the party which suppressed their Rebellion,libera ted and enfranchised their slaves and established for all an equality before the law. If they would obliterate the recollections of the late “unpleasantness,” let them conform to the new order of things, not infringe upon the rights of their fellowmen and behave themselves as gotffi* api loyal citizens. J*

Cheap Transportation—Some Facts.

In order to show the action and attitude of the Republican and Democratic parties’* oj the question of cheap transportation, we have been at soma pains to collate the following facts on this subject from official records, showing how both parties acted and voted, The subject was first broached in the For-ty-second Congress. On the 27th day of January, 1873, Hon. J. B. Hawley (Rep.) moved to suspend the rules and pass a bill to provide for the appointment of commissioners to collect information in relation to railroads forming lines of commerce between States. Of course, the object of this inquiry was to see if Congress had the constitutional right to regulate the railroads. Pending the motion the House adjourned. On the 3d of February Hawley’s motion came up in the regular order of business, and was defeated by a vote of 75 yeas to 98 nays . Of those who voted in favor of the motion there were 69 Republicans, 5 Democrats and 1 Liberal; of those who voted against it there were 78 Democrats, 19 Republicans and 1 Liberal. Of the delegation from this State every Republican voted for the motion, and every Democrat (Niblack Kerr and Voorhees) against it. So the matter was killed in the Forty-second Congress by Democratic votes, they refusing even to authorize the appointment of a committee to collect information in regard to the right of Congress to regulate the railroads. On the 20th of January (Forty-third Congress) Mr. McCrary, of lowa, (Rep.) reported from his committee on railways and Canals a “bill to regulate commerce by railroads among the several States,” which was ordered printed and recommitted. February 26th it was reported back with amendments. After some debate, in the course of which the measure developed unexpected strength, Mr. Niblack, of this State, moved to lay it on the table. Motion lost. Mr. Eldridge (Dem.) moved an adjournment of the House, which motion also was lost. Finally the previous question was seconded and the main question ordered when the House adjourned. The next day, March 26th, the bill was read a third time and passed by yeas 121, nays 115. Now mark the final vote. Of those who voted in the affirmative there were 115 Republicans, 5 Democrats, and 1 Liberal; of those who voted in the negative; there were 68 Democrats, 44 Republicans, and SLiberals. This bill was widely published and commented on at the time. — It provided for the regulation of the passenger and freight tariffs of all the railroads in the United States, according to a just and equitable standard, and for the secure protection of the peple against extortionate charges. This bill was passed in the house by Republican votes, only five Democrats voting for it, against one hundred and fifteen Republicans So much for that bill, which passed the House, but has not yet been acted on by the Senate. On the 9th of February, in the House Hon. J. Q. Smith, a Republican member from Ohio, moved the suspension of the rules and the adoption of the following: “Be it resolved by the House of Representatves. That in the judgement of this House it is within the constitutional power of Congress by law so to regulate commerce among these States to protect that portion of our internal commerce which is among the several States from all unjust or oppressive tolls, taxations, obstructions or other burdens, whether imposed by railroad companies or by combinations thereof, or by other commop carriers, when engaged as the instruments of such portion of the commerce of the people'; that the present conditipn and magnitude of the commerce among the states are such as to demand the prompt and wise exercise of the power and duty declared iu this resolution,” This resolution was adopted by yeas 172, pays 64. Of those who voted in the affirmative there were 156 Republicans, 14 Democrats, and 2 Liberals ; of those who voted ip ft l ? negative there were’ 51: Demo-

crats, Il Republicans, and 2 Liberals; In the Senate, on the 20th of June, Senator Windom, of Minnesota, a Republican, offered an amendment to the regular river and harbor appropriation bill, providing as follows: “Fgr surveys and estimates far the improvements r< commended by the Senate select committee cn transportation routes to the seaboard, u]»n the four routes indicated in the report of said committee * * * $200,000, or so much thereof as may be necessary, to be expended under the direction of the Secretary of War, in such manner as his judgement will secure the greatest amount cf exact information for each of said routes.” The amendment was agreed to by ye.is 39, nays 12. Of those who voted in the affiirmative there were 28 Republicans, 9 Democrats, and 2 Liberals. Here again, it will be seen, the bulk of the vote in favor of the appropriation and preliminary survey for improved water routes was Republican, while the bulk of the vote against it, 7 out of-12, was Democratic. In the light of these votes we appeal to the people to say which party has shown the best disposition to respond to their demands on the question of cheap transportation.—lndianapolis Journal.

What Our Exchanges say.

The Remington Journal has ceased to beBro. Johnson having taken his printing material, to Rensselaer, where he will supplant the Union by the publication of a firstelass Republican journal. Jasper county is at last to be supplied with “a long felt want.”— Monticello Herald. The Rensselaer Republican is received. It is edited by C. M. Johnson, a young mau of fine ability and good experience.— It is thoroughly Republican and takes the place in Jasper county of the Union, which has damaged itself materially by giving aid and comfort to the enemy. We hope the Republican may prosper financially and politically.,— Lafayette Courier. The Republican will make its initial ap-* pearance tomorrow. May it have prosperity and a long and useful career. Let all Republicans and'every body else, who can afford to subscribe and pay for one or more copies of the new paper, and lend Mr. Johnson proper encouragement for his enterprise. There is no other business in which the same amount of caprtatiynrrest—ed that docs as much for the welfare of the place in which it is located—materially, morally, socially, educationally, or intellectully—as a well-conducted newspaper; and there is no person in a community, neither the physician, the minister nor the school teacher, better deserving of liberal pay for his labor than the intelligent and consciencious editor. There is not an other institution in the land that is so important to the temporal well-being of its inhabitants, nor one whose loss would be more serious to the nation, than our free press. Patronize the new venture liberally.— Rensselaer Union.

High Taxes in Jasper County.

Mr. Editor.—l wish to lay before your .readers a few statements relative to “high taxes” in Jasper county. I shall present facts and figures, the result of careful calculations and comparisons. Hoping your readers, irrespective of party, will give due consideration to the same, I will proceed at A* ce - ‘ .J. ’rhe average levy for local purposes in this county is $1.03 on the SIOO. The average in the State for local Durposes is 98 cents on the SIOO. There are nfty-eight counties taxed lower, and thirty-thfge higher than Jasper county. This would place Jasper a few cents above the average of the ninety-two Ifbunttes, yet that this is more apparent than real will follow from the next statements. 2. As a rule, thickly settled counties levy a much lower tax than these more thinly settled. For instance, Marion county, with a population of 190 to the square mile, levies only 41 cents on the SIOO, while Starke, with a populaton of 10 to the square mile, levies $2,29 on the SIOO. — These are, respectively, the thickest and thinnest settled, and the lowest and highest levies, in the State. This rule, of course, is modified and made to vary in some instances, for a few counties with a dense population have higher taxes than some others not so densely populated. This is caused principally by the railroad tax, township tax, county debt tax, &c. Let me illustrate farther. The six densest populated counties in the State average ninety-two cents on the SIOO, while the six thinnest settled, levy $1.23. A comparison of any equal number of the thickest and thinnest settled counties wi 1 favor the former with alo ver tax. Excepting Starke, Jasper is the most sparsely settled county in the State, and its tax is 15 cents lower than the a verage of the 12 most sparsely settled counties. n r e have the loxvest tax in the State according to the density of population. 3. I will now show that the people of this county really pay, in money, a lower tax than the average in the State. The average road tax in the State is nine cants, and Jasper countie’s road tax is seventeen cents. Deduct the nine cents from ninety-eight cents (average local in the State) and we have eighty-nine cents to be paid in money. Deduct the seventeen cents from $1.03 (the average in Jasper county) and we have only eighty-six cents to be paid in money—three cents below the average. True, you pay your road tax in work, but you could hire it done for from twenty-five to thirty per cent, less than the tax. There are a few more modifications of local taxes, but I will not state them now—l expect to in my next. U.

Per Diem Bill.

A report has gained circulation that Dr. Hatch favored the increase of salary while in the State Legislature, and for that reason, we herewith publish the facts, as we glean® them from the Brevier Legislative Reports, which are published by authority- On Saturday, December 7th, 1872, when the House committee reported the increase of salary bill and recommended its passage, it was .debated for a time and then pressed to vote, and was Rejected by a vote of 41 yeas to 45 nays. Dr. Hatch voted Agafiist the passage of the bill. [See Brevier Reports, page 2' 9.] On Wednesday, December 11th, 1872, Mr. Heller’s motion to reconsider the vote on the per diem bill was declared to be the special order by the Speaker (Mr. Heller was a Democrat by the way.) Mr. Lenfesty, a Republican, moved to lay Heller’s motion to reconsider Onjjie table, and on call of the House resulted yeas 32, nays 67. On this motion Dr. Hatch voted with the yeas—to Thy Heller’s motion on the table. [See House Journal, Special Session 1872, page 413/L Mr. Lfflfesty’s motion being lest, the motion of» Heller was agreed to, and the question again recurred on the final passage of the per alem bill. The vote was-taken and resulted, yeas 51, nays 40. So the bill ttis last vote, Dr. Hatch again voted agaihatohe increase of salary. [See Brevier Rbporh, page, 253.] It will thus be seen that Dr. Hatch voted against the increase of pay every time. As a report is being used by Democrats and sore-headed Republicans to defeat the Republican, nominee, we request all the papers in the district to examine the Brevier Reports and publish the facU-— Kentland Gazette, Sept., 3d, 1874.

Concerning the Chicago and South Atlantic Railroad the Inter-Ocean of the 16th insU says. ‘•Another new road is promising very largely, whether the promises will be fulfilled or not. This is the Chicago and South Atlantic. The line as laid out is almost straight between Chicago and Charleston.— Just what the prospect for completing this project and bringing it to an established fact is not stated. It is stated, however that the road promises largely, and that there is every chance of success. A contract was let at Delphi, Ind., on yesterday for the building of a section, and other contracts are to be let within a day or two. The opening of the line from Charleston to Ashville, 297 miles, was celebrated a day or two since by a grand excursion and barbecue, at which there were 10,000 people.”

TEACHERS’ INSTITUTE.

The Teachers’ Institutute has been postponed from September 21, to Monday Sept. 28, and to continue five days, D. Eckley Hunter, one of the best Institute instructors in Indiana, and A. C. Shortridge, for ten years Superintendent 11 Indianapolis Schools, and now, Purdue University, will be present part of the time. A large attendance of teachers is expected. Mr Snoddy is going over the county, seeing teachers and working up the matter so as to make it a perfect success. A public examination will be held, Saturday October 3d, following the Institute. *

1875. 1675. PROSPECTUS Iniia&a U Journal 0 Subscribe For A First-Class FAMILY AND POLITICAL NEWSPAPER. o For more than a half a century The Indiana State Journal hss furnished the latest and most reliable information to the people of Indiana. It is the conviction of the managements to-day, more firmly fixed than ever, that the demand of the people is for NEWS, of whatever character. Believing this, the prime object of the Weekly Journal is to be a newspaper in the most approved acceptation of the term. Coupled with the effort, however, to furnish full and fresh reports of the World’s happenings, from week to week, there is a desire to comment editorially upon them in an unbiased manner. While the political character of the paper is Republican, it is independent of all political cabals and complication, and will never apologize for wrong doing because the offender is a member of its party organization. Especial attention is given to general miscellany, to a summary of State news, to such city matters as are of general interest and extra care is taken to render the commercial reports of the most perfect character. In fact every line in each issue is scrutinized with the greatest care, an d few if any of the metropolitan papers, are piesented to their readers in a more correct or attractive form. The results of this course has been the firm establishment of the Weekly Journal in the confidence of the people, as evidenced by fta large and increasing patronage.— Cash commissions allowed Agents preferring them instead of premiums. Subscriptions under the above arrangement can be sent in whenever a name is taken, or held until several names have been procured. Cist of Premiums.
