' - ——— -— e Let Your Voices be Heard. | The events of the past six months render it essential to the recognition of the popular will that the farmers, mechanics and laboring men generally give expres~ sion, in some appropriate form, to thejr views on the political, situation. We know of no better way to do this than a resort to the colimns of the press, and with tht;.t view cordially invite members of the several industrial branches in this -and adjoining counties to express their opinions through the columns oftipe-BAN~ NER. No distinction will be recognized on account of past political affiliation—our invitation being intended alike for Democrats, Ilgiberkals, va.nd,_:Repu‘blicms.What we desire is to ascertain the individual views of the sons of toil- Let them spenk out freely and without fear.

E. T. Cox, father of Hon. 8. 8. Cox, died at Zanesville, Ohio, last Sunday.— He was & prominent and highly esteemed citizen. —-——-—————o".——‘———-— SAvs the Harrisburg (Pa.) Patriot: “Some people are hard to please. The editor of the Chicago Zimes is among them. To hisstraightout democracy Greeley liberalism was unendurable. Now the straight-out democracy of the New York World is a rank offence to his liber: alistn. It is evident that Lydia Thompson is badly needed in the neighborhood of the. T¢émes office. A few minutes of ber presence would probably give the newspaper a straight Story.” A

MuraT HALSTEAD, of the Cincinnati Commercial, suggests, as a platform tor General Butler to run on, for the Gover. norship of Massachusetts, and later for the Presidency, those two absorbing questions of the day—Salary Grab and Credit Mobilier. He thinks “Ben is the very best man, in all respects, to test public judgment regarding these matters. If, by testing i%, he can get one-tenth of the 200.000 voters of his State, he will have the satisfaction of Knowing that there is a majority of nine-tenthe:against him,” ?

Forr WAYNE, 8o the Staats Zeitung of that city informs us, is empbatically a German city. The Mayor, Col. Zollinger. is a German; the Treasurer, Mr. Droeg~ meyer, is a German; the Assessor is a German; ten of the eighteen Councilmen are Germans. The City Attorney, Chief Engineer, Street Commiséinqer, the Market Master and two members of the Board of Health are Germans; - Now, if these gentlemen will only maintain the proverbial honesty of their countrymen, everybody will have just cause to be sat isfied with their selection.

THAT able and influential Democratic journal, the St. Louis Republican, in an elaborate article upon the political situation, takes the moderate ground recently advocated by Governors Hendricks and Woodson, namely, that while the Democratic party will not die or dissolve, it will yield place and give its support to any power that deserves the honor, . It thinksthat the start must be made by the Liberal Republicang, and believes “every Democratic vote in the country is at the service of any Liberal Republican who may prove himself entitled to it.”

“OLp Sussipy” Pomeßroy talks of bidding a lasting farewell to the unappreciative yeomanry of “Bleeding Kan-~ 8a8.” This important information we gather from the Atchison Ohampion, which says: “A gentleman who saw exSenator Pomeroy at Topeka, recently, informs us that Mr. Pomeroy will, in the future, have nothing whatever to do with politics. -On this coursé he is resolved, and we think his determination is & wise one. Our informant does not know whether he has fully decided to remain in the State or not, but thinks he will here. after reside in the East, He talks of liv-. ing in New York city, where he has been -offered an important and . lucrative position.” 8o it goes. Pomeroy ‘settled down” in Kansas for the express purpose of gaining office. His ambition was gratified to the great detriment of the people, who, upon gaining a tair knowledge of his true worth, repudiated this notorious advocate of every rascally scheme that came up in Congress. His occupation being gone, he turns his back upon a State that honored him far beyond his merits, ; °

-THE NECEssITY of some action being taken by which the advocates of good government may be afforded an opportus nity to bestow their suffrages upon suitable representatives, is forcibly set forth by that able Democratic journal, the - Buffalo Oeurier :—“The party of the future is that which can gather to itcelf the best and purest elements of the country, and convince the people of itsintolerance of official theft and baseness. During the past winter 1t was within the power of the Democracy to achieve at once these conditions of success. United, unflinching, uncompromising action on the part of the Democratic representatives in Congress, simply on the .two matters of the Credit Mobilier and the salary steal, would have won back the popular confidence which the party lost twelve years ago, and set 1t again on the high road to - success. The opportunity was wickedly sacrificed. A majority of our representa. ' tives took pains to prove what Republican pessimists are constantly preaching ~that there is no more sincerity, honesty and purity in one party than in the other. They betrayed our cause, and the golden chance was thrown away.” i

THOUGHTS ON THE POLITICAL o SITUATION. o There is one fact which few candid men will attempt to dispute—the Repub* lican party, which controls the affairs of government, must be hurled from power before the corruption that stares us in the face on all sides can be successfully combatted. : . The acknowledgment of this palpable truth may be disagreeable to many welldisposed, honest members of that party ; but the necessity nevertheless exists, However numerous the /onest members of the dominant party may be, it is obvious that the organization has passed into corrupt bands. Hence, the former have become utterly powerless for good ; they cannot work’a’ reform, however zea~ lous and determined they may be, , " Few, if any, ucts can be passed by Congress without pay, %. e, corrupt appliances, The Credit Mobilier case, reilroad and steamship subsidies, land grants, tariff legislation—all these bear evidence of fraud on their very face, The Republican party of the present day is without & mission for the attainment of & noble purpose—a-great public benefit. It lives 1n the past; 1L draws all Its inspiration from the late war, It cau only rally the rank and file by she old appeal ana cry of blood. Buu the efficiency of this cunning device is beginning to wane. The people demand something more humane, some - thing practical, something in the interest of the toiling masses of our broad land. :

- But, now comes the query: What party shall take the place of the one now 1n power ? We answer, the party thatis able to meet the wants of the people ; the party that embodies the principles that are felt to be 'sacred and recognized as adapted to the state.of things existing toduay; the party whose leaders can lead the people in the onward march of progiess and leform ; the party that is organized to bring the country back to its old hiss toric thought—to its old! traditions and Its old principles ; the party whose administrations will preserve the ' Union, not only,but American liberty and American freedom by maintaining intact the old doctrine of State Sovereignty; that a State ¢s sovereign within its own limits and in its own interests, and the Federal goi'e'rnme'nt is a creature ot the States,and bas not one particle of authority but what they bave delegated to it ; the party that 18 honest to the heart’s core and will administer the government not in the interest of classes, cliques, corporations or rings, but for the people, honestly and economically., ' . This is the party of the future, into whose hands the government will be delivered, or it wiil go down into the deep pitof corruption dug for it by the Murphys, the Camerons, the Chandlers, the Grants, and other corrupt men, who are now its leaders. The people are honest, The large majority mean only what 18 right, and when they see what is now evident to those not blinded by party zeal, that the Republican party is rotten, past cure, they will listen to the call of honest men and enlist in crowds to save the country from ruin. '

' The Key-Note. : During the late Presidential contest, a distinguished New York Democrat delivered a most eloquent and able speech, in the course of which he gave utterance to this philosophical truth: “The men, who compose the Republican party were either Whigs or Democrats. It was many years in the process of formation, drawing from these sources. It rose to the dignity and power of a national party in 1856. Strong in numbgrs, resolute in will, four years later it triamphed in the election of Abraham Lincoln, how and why Ido not stop to inquire. The war followed—the slaves were freed, and their entire And complete civil and political equality before the law established and guaranteed. And this wasand should be therend of it for every legitimate purpose. But the men who composed that party did not die; they are as alive as any body of men; the best of them de not propose to .live over the past, but to live in the present, and to share in its duties and reeponsibilities as citizens and free men. These men all had a political education and training,either in the Democratic or Whig school of politics, and they naturally and necessarily revert to the political principles they entertained, and 1n coming back to these they find the old differences faded and gone. Those differences were always on measures of policy and expediency, and not on fundamental principles of government. So far as related to the limitation and powers of the constitution the line was al ways narrow, and since the events that have crowded our history during the last t wenty years can hardly be traced. Liberal Republicans and Democrats meeting at the present time to cencert measares for the preservation of the Constitution it—self will not be deterred from a hearty co-operation by questions of mere policy and expediency that are dead and forgote ten.” We have here a plain and succinct statement of the relations which the Liberal Republicans and Democrats sustain toward each other. There being no real differences between them on vital issues, why should the consolidation not now be completed ? Can anybody tell ? !

Monmours, 11, is the place where the “National Anti Secret Society Convention” assembled last week. The telegraph inform us that “Mr. J. Blanchard delive ered the opening address on the subject of Masonry. There are about twenty five delegates present from different parts of the Union. Asa national affair he convention was a failure.”

A SEVERE pressure has recently been felt in the money and stock markets of Vienna. In order to prevent a panica number of prominent bankers of that city subscribed 12,000,000 florins, to which the Austrian Finance Minister generously added 8,000,000 florins, more. Some of the solid mer of the Vienna Bourse must bave been playing at rouge et noir with members of Gen, Van Buren’s Commis - ‘ gion.

A PERTINENT INQUIRY is raised, in ‘these words, by the Quincy (HL.) Herald: “Whoet interest in this country is there that Grant and his friend’s policy have not injured? We would like some supporter of Grant’d administration to point out what interest in this country, that helped the people, he has helped during his term as President. His whole policy is oppressive to the masses and beneficial only to a few, and they generally his relatives,”

: Mr. Chasa’s Ambition. When Chief Justice Chase was holding the Circuit Covrt, in Charleston, in May, 1869, the Decoration Day for the Federal dead occurred and he was invited to be present. In his answer to the invitation the Chief Justice said: My duties in the Circuit Court will prevent me from being present, as I should like, on the occasion of the deco. ration of the graves of the Federal dead, but I avail myself of the opportunity to express the hope that the time is not. far distant when the North and South, hay - ing foreyer buried and forgotten the unhappy differences of the past, will decorate alike the graves of both Federal and ‘Confederate dead. : This sentiment was misinterpreted by some people. A prominent New York banker even went so far as to write tothe Chief Justice and say that he was actuated by an ambition for the Presidency.in expressing such views. In reply the Chief Justice said : : I never was so ambitious as some unambitious men have thought me. My only ambition now is to see this country once more united and peaceful and happy.

Another Eloquent Speech by Grant. At the re-uaion of the Armyof the Po tomac, which occurred at New Haven, Tuesday of last week, President Grant was called out-to make a speech. He is reported as having spoken in very low tones, as follows : | ~ Comrades:—llt affords me very grest pleasure to meet you here, but I will not detain you by any address, which would only mar the pleasure you would have in reflecting on those addresses which you have heard, which: have been soable, and which only do justice to-your army and to the commanders which you have had with you. . ; That was an able effort. Now mark the contrast : ' General Hancock also replied to re peated calls, and eaid :—I am very grateful for the cordial reception you have given me; butl will not detain you with any remarks. Although I have not seen you: for many! years, I have loved you not less for seeing you rarely. When I 'am long absent, the more earnestly do I desire to see you,

A WARNING TO FARMERS AND OTHERS, —From the Columbia City Commercial we learn that Whitley county “is just now filled with peddlers, who travel through the country selling to farmers and others, cloth, &c., which they represent as the best of - imported goods, at prices from one third to one halt less than real good goods can be purchased for, taking in payment therefor the purchaser’s note. The trade is made, and the peddlers seek a purchaser for the note, which they sell at a .great discount for cash. When the purchaser begins to examine his first class (?) goods he finds that he has on hand a stock of worthless shoddy, &. We warn the public to be on the look out for these swindlers. We have reports from diﬁ'ere‘n% parts of the State where the swindlers have been at work. George Lawrence, of Union towaship, was ‘taken in’ to the tune of $l5O by these swindlers on Tuesday.” o

: Snobbery Repudiated. ~ We are pleased to be afforded an opportunity of doing justice to the South Bend Republicans, who were thoroughly disgusted with the miserable balderdssh published in the Inter-Ocean by one of Colfax’s lickspittles at the Bend, and of which mention was made in these cdlumns last week. The following card, which appeared in' the several South Bend papers, explains the matter fully : Will you do me the kindness to pablish the following in full. It was sent to the Inter Ocean, but was cut short in an important particular. [ E. Nicar. Sours BEND, May 9. To the Editor of the Inter—Oceap: : <] SIR:—A communication from this place, under date of May 7, signed “Re publican,” in reference to our city elec~ tion on the 6+h instant, appears in yonr paper to day, and is so manifestly unjust that I desire to place the matter in its proper light for the benefit of all interested. Politics did not enter into the. question at all, the issue being one of waterworks alone—the “Holly” snd “stand pipe” systems being presented for the consideration of our people, and the election resulting ini the choice of the “stand pipe” candidates for Councilmen. Democrats and Republicans alike took part in the election as their respective views on the waterworks question-dic-tated, and all refcrence to politics was carefully avoided. The successful candidates were nominated at ‘‘citizens’” conventions, composed of men of both poli~ tics, who for once dropped their political faith. Mr. Colfax voted as any other citizen, and I bave heard of no ovanon or cheering on the occasion. Please give ‘place to this in your paper, and oblige, | . E. Nicam, ~ | Chairman Rep.

Levies for State and Local Texes. ' The following recommendation by the Auditer as to the local taxation vili be. of general interest : : From the statements ‘made to this office, i relation to the progress of Asses—sors, I am of the opinion that the issess—ment of property will be largelv ircreas—ed over any assessment ever made in this State; in some counties it will, perbaps,be doubled. In view of this, I take the liberty of calling your attention to the impartance ot having local levies of taxes mide in proportion to the assessments as now in—dicated. As the township trustees ievied their taxes in March, taking the old val, ucs as a basis, I am of opinion that atthe Jupe term of the Commissioners” Court the trustees should reduze the March le~ vies in proportion to the increase of as~ sessment. As none of the taxes have yet been placed upon the duplicates of 1873, it is undoubtedly the duty of the proper authorities'in counties, townships, and cities to reduce their levies to correspond with the assessment now being made. If this is done the new valuation of property will not bring with it an unnecessary increase of taxation; and {I respectfully call the attention of the authorities upon whom the duty of levying taxes devolves, to the necessity of taking promptly sach action as will carry out the requirements of the law, and at the same time meet the wishes and subserve the interests of the people of the State. To this end 1t should be made known that there will be a reduction of tax levies to correspond with the increased valuation of prop erty. : . '

Rough on the Temperance Men. The Rensselaer Union does not seem to entertain & very exalted opinion of the moral courage displayed by the temper. ance men of that town. It speaks of them in these vigorous terms: The members of temperance organizations in this place seem to have a superfluous amount of courage when ten or twelve are toFether in. the lodge room with the doors locked, and.they “resolute” and blow. and exhort and threaten at a great rate, but when it becomes necessary to file a complaint against a drunken man or a whisky seller, their courage oozes out of their finger ends, a sudden and peculiar yearning seizes their bowels, important business requires immediateattention, and they hurry rapidly out of sight. But let some ‘ nevy non pretender to advanced temperance fanaticism file a complaint and cause an arrest, and it is wonderful how soor they recover from their bowel complaint, surprising how expeditiously they transact business, and astonishing how soon they will gather at the feast when the game is captured! It is probably safeto calculate that one sturdy, sinful, unpretending man who quietly takes his occasionsl nip when the measles or some other contagion is about, will do ‘more towards enforceing a sensible temperance law, like the present obne, than twenty loud mouthed, resolving fanatics ‘who fight at long range with poeumatic artillery.”

ABoUT two hundred members of Con gress participated in the proceedings of the convention wbich met in St. Louis, on Tuesday and Wednesday of last week. The object of the convention was o con~ sider the question of cheap transportation and its relation to the development of the Great West. We fail to notice, however, that anything of a practical nature was accomplished, and are constrained to be. lieve that these honorable gentlemen cared more for a “bigh old time” than the public good.

THE PRESIDENT of the United States is to bave postage stamps, marked “Executive,” manufactured for his official use, in order that His Excellency’s correspondence may be distinguished above the plebian missives of the common herd,— These stamps, with other separately distinctive ones for each department of the government, are to cost nearly $2,000,000 for the coming year, or, to be more exact, enough te cover the mailing of 62,196,666 balf-ounce packages.

Taxing Property for Railroads. Ohio bhas a law, quite similar to that of Indiana, which enables counties and townships to vote a tax in aid of the construction of railroads through their re--spective localitles, This law is generally known in the Buckeye State as the “Boe sel law,” and was enacted a few years since. Taxes have been levied ina number of counties, under the operations of this law. A case was, some time since, brought before the Supreme Court, from Ross county, 10 which James Taylor was plaintift and the County Commissioners defendants, the suit having been brought to test the constitutionality of the law under consideration. The cabe was ably srgued, and on the 13th inktant Chiet Justice White delivered the “opinion of the court, the entire bench concurring. Judge White decided the law unconstitutional, for the following reasons: 1. Taxation can only be authorized for public purposes. Where, therefore, a statute authorizes a county, township or municipality to levy taxes not 'above a given per cent. on the taxable property of the locality, for the purpose of building so much of a railroad as can be built for that amount, and the part of a railroad to be built can be of no public utility un lessiused to' accomplish an unconstitus tional purpose, such tax is illegal, and an not be imposed. i 2. Bection 6, article 8, of the Constitution declares that “the General Assem~ bly shall never authorize any county, city, town or township, by vote of its citizens or otherwise, o become a stockTalder in any joint stock company, corporation or associstion.” What the Gen. eral Assembly is thus prohibited from doing directly, it hae no power to do in» directly. o & :

3. Where public credit or money is furnished by any of the subdivisions of the State named, to be used in part con | struction af the wo/ik which, under the statute authorizing ‘its construction, must be completed, if completed at all, by other parties out of their own means,who are to own and have the municipal con-~ trol and management of the work when completed, the public credit or money thus used can cnly be regarded as furnished for or in aid of such parties,” ! © 4, Thbe act of April 23, 1872, to ajthorize counties, townsbhips and the mu nicipalities therein named to build railroads (69 O. L., 84), authorizes the raising of money by taxation, which is equal ly applicable to the unlawful purposes of ‘aiding railroad companies and others en gaged in building and operating railroads as it 18 to any lawful purpose; and. gives to the officers intrusted with the control and application of the money thus rajsed no means or power of discrimination as-to the lawfulness or unlawfulness of the work or purpose to which it is" to be ap plied, and thus isin contravention of sec‘tion 6, article 8, of the Constitution, pnd therefore void.

; Tomfoolery. 1 Councernifig the operations of Cap*. Jack, we read-in the St, Louis Republican this astounding information: . ‘““As ususl, it was just when the soldiers gave him up for lost and quit looking for him, that he exhibited to them his manly form arrayed in the uniform ofthe late Gen. Canby, When first discovered be was in the middle of the camp, attended by nine athletes, and the soldiers seem to have supposed that he came for a game of base ball.: The distinguished arrival was announced to a corporal by & private.— The corporal saluted and informed a ser~ geant. The sergeant told a lieuteunant, and at lust the news reached the captain. The captain commanded the orderly~sergeant to call the roll while he consulted a West Point text book on the proper mode of proceeding 1n such cases. Before these formalities could be completed, Captain Jack’s men had shot down five soldiers, and had clcared out with all the live Stock in the camp. As this happened outside of the Lava Beds, it would seem that the business of exterminating our troops can be carried' on as successfully in the open country as in the pedregal.” If this be true—and we have no reason to question its correctness—the captain in command should forthwith be sent, without protection, into Capt. Jack’s inviting camp, to enjoy the “hospitality” of the Modoc cut-throats. >

The Campaign of. 1868—Some| New -Disclosures. i To the Editor of the New York Tribune: P Slr :—The following facts in reference to the compaign of 1868, and the propused withdrawal of Gov. Seymour in. favor of Mr. Chase, having wuever been published, will, I think, be of interest to your readers: e At a dinner party in Washington,lon the 25th of March, 1869, Mr. James M./ Carlish, the eminent lawyer of that city, made a statement to- the effect that a few weeks previous, Mr. John Lee, brother of Admiral Lee, told him' that he had seen a letter from General Frank Blair to his father, in which General Blair stat‘ed that he had been informed by Wash - ‘ington McLean that it was vseless to cont tinue the struggle with Seymour and Blair for candidates; that he {General Blair) was satisfied of that fact, and thought that the = substitution eof Chief Justice Chase for Governor Seymour was the only means of success,and advised his father (F. P. Blair, Ben.,) to go to New York and endeavor to bring that substis tution about. General Blair declared his own readiness to withdraw -~ and allow another candidate to be nominated, say~ ing that tho Chief Justice was a friead of civil liberty, and his election would be beneficial to the country. Mr. Blair, Sen., thereupon went to New York, but found there wasno power in the committee to make a new nomination. The mat« ter was therefore dropped. E. BarTiMoRE, May 8,1863.

Towx ELECTION.—Our corporation election went off ratlier tamely, and but little interest was taken in the matter. After many of our Republican friends agreeing to nominate a ticket without re. gard to politics, they finally wheeled into line in time to put out a straight Repub-. lican ticket. This so thoroughly. die gus:%d many of our citizens that only 77 votes were polled. Thisfully satisfies us that the interests of our town have no in. fluence where party is concerned. We believe, however, that this policy is only confinéd to a few one-horse politicians, who set themselves up as dictators for the party to lead the unsuspecting arotmd by the nose. The Democrats declined to put} a ticket into the field, because many of them had said they would not support a party ticket in an election like this.— Auburn Courier. : |

A Fool and a Gun—The Old Story.

,r[NDIANAPOLIB, May 15.—Familiar as a household word or a three told tale is the story of a trsge&y in Vermilion County last Saturday. Miss Maggie Thompson, -an_amiable and very attractive young lady, was visiting some relatives named . Anderson in Helt township. Lewis An. ‘derson, & “smart” young gentleman, was skylarking about his cousin Maggie, half love making and half romping, when he picked up an old rifle standing in the cor ner and pointing it at ber. Young Anderson assumed that the gun was not loaded; indeed, he was quite sure of it. | But he was mistaken. The gun fired the first time, and Miss Thompson was fatally wounded. Anderson, asa matter of course, was greatly mortified at.the occurence, and was willing to make any apology. ~ Tur Ohio Constitutional Convention is now in session at Columbtis, Hon. M. ‘Il%.

The notorious Eli Brown, who was born on a farm near the border of Wells county, married the gister of a lawyer now residing at Kokomo. The Tribune says this lawyer was summoned by a telegram on Monday night to go to his sister, who is dying of a broken heart. : They had a lively time of it in Koko-~ mo on Saturday, May 12th. While two men were being tried before Justice Moon, for assault and battery, one Levi Conwell ‘entered ;and asked the men why they didn’t obtain a change of venue, assuring them they had uo show for “justice in that d—d court.” The ’Squire warneG him of the consequences of a repetition of suct: “unhandsome conduct as those,” at which the. irate Levi broke out worse than be”

fore, and the 'Squire ordered his commitment for contempt. An attempt to arrest him started the fun in earnest. The strug’ gle that ensued was between the law and order looking citizens of the town and a party of roughs from the country. The | scene of battle drifted out upon the public square where the roughs, finding they were getting the worst of it, tried to es- | cape. Four of them, including Conwelland his brother, got into their wagon; but at this juncture the officers were reinforced by a number of determined and plucky.cit izens, and,after a determined fight, the two. Conwells, John Widner and Joseph Tolley were landed in jail, stubbornly fight ing and resisting till theiron doors closed uponthem. On Monday they were brought betore the Mayor (except Widner, who was too badly damaged to appear,) and | convicted on the separate charges of as sault aud resisting officers. Conwell was mulcted in about SICO fine and costs, |and his brother,George in about half that |sum The charge of riot was dismissed There is talk among the roughs of organ | izing a squad of fifty men in the western | part of the county, and a like party io | the east, and “taking” Kokomo—which will doubtless be found a very difficult {job.

Chicago’s last engineering project is a tunnel six miles long, and seven feet in diameter to furnish the city with an increased pure water supply. It is proposed to make two mules of it seventy feet below Lake Michigan and four miles of it under the city, in a direct line west | ward, Work is already progressing on that part of the tunnel ‘under the lake, at the rate. of 24 feet aday. It isaunparallel with the one built in 1864, The new tunnel will cost about $1,000,000. e : | Chicago invites the whole world to come and see her on the first week in next month, when she will celebrate the completion of the Lake Shore depot and the opening of the Pacific hotel by a grand jubilee under the direction of Gilmore, of Boston Peace jubilee fame. All the railroads centering in the city have agreed to carry passengers at reduced fare—probably half-fare for the round trip—and we may expect the influx of visitors to be something won derful. \ ¢ : -\ Edward Pierrepoint subscribed to the $105,000 Grant purse, and ostentauously gave $20,000 to get votes for Grant’s re-election in 1872, Reward : the Russian Mission. | i In Newcastle, Del., last SBaturday, seven men received twenty lashes each for larceny, and one was placed inthe pillory for. cuftirg his wife’s throat. / g Prasident (3rant has received a ‘“temperance blessing”’ from Philadelphia.
