GAZETTE, Terre Haute, Ind.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 14, 1871.

THE GAZETTE will learn by experience that it is not every newspaper that reflects public opinion and sentiment, and that fact the editor ought to rccognizo in the brief existence of his own sheet. II the \ZKTTE has any backers among" the peopie of either party the fact is not generally known or appreciated.—Jov.vnol.

THE GAZETTE is backed by itself,, and it does not want any other, nor would it have any other "backers," except those who do it, because the doctrines it advocates are right. Whether the people,

either party" back it or not, is a matter of indiil'erence to the editor. He knows the "peopbP have, and do back him, and will continue to back him so long as he advocates that which is for the best interest ot the community at large, whether it suits the demogogues of "either party," or not.

But before the "editor of the Journal talks about the support of a party, he should endeavor to silence the almost universal dissatisfaction which is common in Democratic circles in relation to the course he has pursued for the last several months, and also to his present political position. With those difficulties we have nothing to do, but we mildly suggest to the editor, that he has just as much as one man can well attend to, to regain his lost favor in his own party, without endeavoring to influence the popularity any one else may have in the same household. "Attend to your own business, and let other people's alone," is a good old motto, which we would impress on the mind of the Journal man, for certainly if he will take a calm survey of his political surroundings, he will find his individual affairs command all his attention. If the Democratic party has leaped, by a giant's bound, over and beyond the old fogy ism which so characterizes him, he must blame only himself for remaining so persistently in "sleepy hollow," and not being enterprising enough to wake up and be even with the times. If, while he sticks, "like a piece of red putty" on the nose ot a sick monkey, to the dead past, and finds himself distanced in the coming political race and in a iew months wholly forgotten, he must attribute all to tiie dreamy, unenterprising snooze he is indulging in, and not because he himself is not altogether lovely in the Democratic party. That he is a leader (particularly in city elections) worthy of ail praise, no one can doubt, and that he evinces great political sagacity in continually attacking the organ of his party in this wtate also displays partisan wisdom in a most commendable degree.

But then this is none of our business, and, "let other people's alone," &c., &c.

THE whole financial legislation of Congress has been to make the rich richer, and the poor poorer—to relieve the rich of taxation and put it upon labor. Why not tax the bondholders? Neither in the law authorizing the issue of bonds, nor in the wording of the bonds was any ex- after November, 1S72 pression that they were to be exempt from Federal taxation. There was an express provision that they should be exempt from State, county and municipal taxation, thereby implying that they were subject to Federal taxation.

IF President Grant has one faculty more conspicuous than that of making foolish and injudicious appointments to office, it is that of preserving the most stolid and complacent imperturbability under the adverse criticisms which a great portion of his appointments have called forth from friends and foes. From one end of the country to the other the organs of his own political party have given expression to the feelings of mortification and disgust which his unprecedented action in giving lucrative offices to incompetent relations, gift-bearers, and other unworthy persons, has inspired but with sovereign contempt for these evidences of public opinion, the President has continued to smoke his cigar with unmoved complacency, and to distribute the Federal patronage in such an absurd, not to say corrupt manner, as to mortify his supporters and excite the unbounded derision of his opponents.

Especial Notice.

We call the especial attention of Gen. Cruft, as proprietor of the Express, and James B. Edmunds, as editor of the Journal, to the important faot, that there are large poles now being put up on North Third street, and also along West Main street, which look to us very much like'telegraph poles. We propound the interesting question to them: "What does this nl%au Can it be possible that their little monopoly is about to be kuocked into a cocked hat, without being able to put one copper cent in their pockets Do, gentlemen, look out of your windows, and while you feel

pjeaos. Much wore anon.

Why not tax them, therefore, by Federal authority? Congressman Beck in a recent speech to the people tells the reason. He says: "I introduced such a resolution into Congress but it was voted, down by a strict party vote, and the vote was due to the fact that there were sev-enty-six members of Congress ivho were bondholders." How does that look to the people who honestly pay the taxes THE deposition of Gov. Butler, of Ne assessed against their property, and lion- braska, is universally regarded by the estly expect to see other people's property press as the most efficient rebuke of public robbery ever administered in this country. Butler was a thief and this fact has turned him out of office. He stole school money he took a bribe of -So,000 from a contractor and he was guilty of other less conspicuous stealing.

What It Costs.

The cost of running the White House under the present administration is no light affair, and the items will show the plain people of the country where the money goes that they are so heavily taxed to furnish. In the Congressional Globe, second part, seaond session, Forty-first Congress, on page 1,381, can be found the estimated expenses of the White House for 1870-71:

The Greeley Demonstration. The special dispatches to the Cincinnati Enquirer, from New York, in relation to the speech of Horace Greeley, at his reception in that city, from his Southern tour, says: "The Greeley demonstration in Union Square to-night was a most magnificent allair, and astonished all who witnessed it, not owing to the great love lor Greeley which the people assembled in thousands demonstrated in a marked manner, but owing to the decided anti-Grant feeling which was uppermost in all tongues and in all minds. Only once was the President's name mentioned by tho speaker, and not a single voice was heard calling i'ox* cheers.

Never beioro have Republicans in New York been compelled to listen to words of such scathing rebuke as Greeley administered to them to-nignt. They actually quivered when he spoke of the thieving carpet-baggers who were tho pest of the country. He reminded them that be had labored for them for years—that he was ready to hand them over the receipts lor all ho had received from them, and now was ready to square up accounts. He acknowledged that he did not owe them any thing now. As to the future, he had plenty of work with fair remunerationplenty ot notoriety. He desired no office, but he was always ready to obey the will of the people, [immense cheering.]

Ho also alluded to the Democratic new departure, and begged his friends not to underrate it. It might not hurt the Republican party just yet, but it would grow and grow till tlie principles he had taught would be finally indorsed by a true people.

Men like General Ranks, Postmaster Jones and others, leading politicians, are sorelv puzzled by the speech, and are astonished at the result ot the demonstration.

At the close of the proceedings a transparency with the Greeley portrait and surrounded with flags was carried in triumph round tho square, among the plaudits of thousands or peoplo. Immediately after tho adjournment a large number of the Thirteenth Assembly District citizens organized the first Horace Greeley Club,with a formidable list of officers. The old philosopher is now fairly on the track for tiie Presidential nomination."

THE journals of Missouri report the following conspiracy of masked men "A young man named Lock, having made arrangements for marrying a lady in Dunksburg, against the wishes of her relatives, was last week taken from his bed at midnight by a gangof masked men, carried to the woods, and, being tied to a tree naked, was beaten with heavy whips until nearly dead. Two of the perpetrators of the outrage have been arrested, and the community is talking of serving them in the same manner that Lock was treated."

This is a case of Ku Klux. President Grant ought at once to issue his proclamation putting Missouri under martial law. He might send troops to arrest Governor Brown and Senator Schurz, and take charge of tlie elections until

IT MAY be assumed that Mr. Jefferson Davis is corked for the remainder of his natural life, unless his allies and friends in the Republican party fee him liberally to come to their assistance.

There is probably much truth in the popular idea that hot climates make hot blood. Certain it is that when a Southern editor takes up the lash, he lays it on with vigor that shows that he is in earnest. The way the Southern press have scored Jeff. Davis for his Atlanta speech, will prove to him that his "flute-like voice" has ceased to discourse attractive music.

What a blessing it would be to the country if the same kind of punishment could be applied elsewhere than in Nebraska.

THE Pennsylvania Central Railroad Company is reported to be unsound financially, and this is assigned as a reason tor its eagerness to get control of the New Jersey railroads and canals.

It may generally be assumed that an individual or corporation which resorts to corrupt means to obtain appointments by which a court will be "packed" to release the individual or corporation from the payment of honest debts, is not in a flourishing financial condition.

THE Galveston News hits the nail squarely on the head when saying "The truth is, whether Mr. Greeley knows it or not, the South has been des*poiled, dishonored and sacrificed to keep the Republican party in power, and for no higher, no worthier or holier motive."

That is just so. The great interests of the country have not been subserved, but hatred and ill-will, inflamed and perpetuated, simply to keep the leaders of the Republican party in power.

LAST summer, very general indignation was expressed because Secretary Robeson fitted out the war steamer Weehawken, and, taking a number of invited guest on board, made an extended pleasure excursion along our northern Atlantic coast. This summer, Grant is employing Government steam yachts in New York for a like purpose.

A WESTERN lady writes to a noted editor on behalf of her husband "Won't you," she says, "see if you can get him a situation as cashier in a bank in New York, or something of that sort. He is very quick at figures. If you can't get him that place, will you please get him one of a conductor I know you can do it. And if you can't get him a situation there, won't you lend him $3,000, so he can start a hat store here? He will pay you, and I will see that he does."

THE QUESTION

The following conversation recently took place between parties living in this city, and being reported to us, we give it as nearly as possible word for word.

.f<p></p>DISCUSSED.

Mrs. B. to Mrs. R—I saw you with a new dress on the other day as you were passing my house. How much did you pay for it?

Mrs. B.—Why, they asked me 75 cents a yard for it

Mrs. R.—Perhaps you saw it at some other place than where I got mine.

Mrs. B.—Why, where did j'ou get yours?

Mrs. R.—I bought it at the NEW YORK CITY STORE.

Mrs. B.—Do you then trade at Foster Brother's I wouldn't buy a cent's worth there.

Mrs. R.—Pray, why not I always buy where I can buy the cheapest, and I am sure there is no pleasanter place in town to trade than Foster Brothers. They are polite and agreeable, and take a great deal of trouble to suit their customers, and are never impudent to you, as they are at some other stores in town, if you don't happen to get suited.

Mrs. B.—But I have been told that they didn't sell as cheap as they advertised to do, and that if I went there to trade I wouldn't get goods as cheap as they promised to sell thtm.

Mrs. R.—Why, they constantly ask you in their advertisements to cut them out and bring them with you that may see for yourself whether they do or not sell as they advertise. Some of the other dry goods merchants have been stuffing you. They all hate the New York City Store because it has put down prices. I have been surprised to hear certain dry goods merchants in town, who claim to be gentlemen, talking in the most false and slanderous manner of the firm of Foster Brothers.

Mrs. B.—I have sometimes thought myself that what they said was hurting them and helping Foster Brothers, for I am tola that the latter are now doing a larger business than ever. How long have you been trading with them, and have you always found them reliable and their goods as represented?

Mrs. R.—I have traded with them ever since they opened, and have always been well satisfied. Once, however, I got a linen lawn that they warranted would wash. After I got it partially made—the breadths all gored—I thought I would cut off a small piece and try it. I was disappointed in finding that it faded quite badly. I was, I must admit, a little put out about it, for I knew that as it was cut out they would not exchange it, for I had already had a case of this kind with another store in town that had sold me a dress that was warranted to wash, but which faded, and when I went back with it, they not only wouldn't allow me anything for it, but threw in with the refusal an unusual amount of impudence. However, I determined to take this dress back also, and give Foster Brothers a "blessing" at least.for warranting it to me. Going in I happenad to meet Mr. Foster himself, and I commenced at him in a manner neither "child-like" nor "bland." He asked me in a very quiet manner to explain the matter to him, adding, "There is nothing we dislike more than to make mistakes, but there is nothing that gives us more pleasure than correcting them." I explained the matter to him, when he said: "As our clerk warranted it to wash, we are, of course, in honor bound to make up your loss to you, whatever that may be. We would exchange it, only it is cut into so many pieces." You may judge I was surprised when he offered to return me half my moneg. I suppose I ought to have been satisfied with that, but really the dress was of no value to me, and I told him so. "Then," said he, "we will "take the goods back just as they are and return you ALL your money."

Mrs. B.—You certainly were treated well, but do you think they still do things in that way? As your dress was lawn, you probably bought it when they first started. Perhaps they do different now.

Mrs. R.—I have every reason to think this is one of the settled principles upon which they do business. You must have certainly seen that they constantly advertise to return the money for all goods bought at their store that are not in every way satisfactory to tne buyer. No other store in town will do that.

Mrs. B.—Now you speak of it, I do remember that they have been so advertising. But I have one objection to these gentlemen, of which I have not yet spoken, and that is that they are so personal in their advertisements.

Mrs. R.—Yes I heard Mrs. T. talking in that same way the other day, and I havn't a bit of patience with either of you. You go and listen for half an hour to the low, personal abuse heaped upon these men by some of their competitors, and then you profess to be shocked and are virtuously indignant because this firm have simply dared to say what they have repeatedly offered to prove—that for years our dry goods stores have been charging unreasonably high profits. No one knows what they state to be a fact better than you do, for you and Mrs. T., and Mrs. H., and several others that I know, used to go to Indianapolis and Chicago for most all your dry goods previous to Foster Brothers bringing down the prices, and yet you stand by and see a combination entered into to drive them away from town, and you hear falsehoods told in regard to them weeks before they opened, and then after their opening you see everything thrown in their way whereby their business may be obstructed—you see their small cash boys beaten in the streets—their goods piled at the door cut with knives—members of the firm assaulted in the streets— efforts made to entice away their help—and yet for all these you have not one single word of condemnation. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. For my part I glory in the pluck of these young men who do not propose to have any body ride rough-shod over them.

Mrs. B.—Really, Mrs. R., you are getting quite eloquent. I didn't know I should bring down upon my head so sharp a lecture, or I should have kept quiet. However, I am not sure but that there is some truth in what you say, and I promise at least to think the matter over. Perhaps I may conclude to try this firm myself, for, to tell you the truth, my friends are many of them telling me I am foolish to pay the old 'stores 20 or 30 per cent, more for goods than Foster Brothers are charging.

Mrs. R.—And I quite agree with them. Now to-morrow I am going around to the N with me tience and pleasantness very much mistaken if you don't make it in the future your favorite shopping place

We submit the above without cofnment. Evidently Mrs. R. is quite able to take care of herself. We are certainly under great obligations to her for tlie good words she has spoken in our behalf. F. B.
