FOR GOVERNOR IS 1872,

OF FI-OYI COUNTY.

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 8,1871.

The Election Yesterday.

The telegraph returns of the elections held yesterday, up to a latd hour last night, indicate that the Radicals have carried New York, Massachusetts, Wisconsin and Illinois, and the Democrats Maryland, Virginia, and probably New Jersey. The Democrats lose New York by the bungling management of the canvass. Tilden & Co., helped the Radicals by their intense denunciations of the Tammany ring, and permitting the corruptions of the New York Custom House —more corrupt than Tammany—and the enormous official robberies of the Radicals generally, to be buried out of sight. What else could be expected from such blundering but overwhelming defeat ?—Indiana]olis Sentinel.

It is only in keeping with the "blundering" continually made by the Democratic leaders. If the Democracy in New York had willingly, warmly and unitedly acted with the Reformers, as did Horatio Heymour and -Horace Greeley, the reform ticket everywhere would have been triumphant, and the Democratic party have achieved a partial success at least. But with the same kind of obstancy which characterized its action in 1868, it persisted in its "blundering" course, and the consequence is, as now reported, New York has gone Republican. Served them rigtit. Perhaps the leaders will eventually get a little common sense forced into their heads, and consent to abandon the "ancient landmarks," "the immemorial usages," "the established precedents," and the chuckle-headed old fogyism fastened on it by short-sighted leaders, and make a free, willing, and united "forward movement." Until the entire party ca.n make up its mind to do this, it can have the delightful pleasure to remain in the background, feasting on the corn and husks which the Radicals will not eat. If they like this, we hope they will be happy.

What is now more evident than the great fact that the Democratic party, of itself, is entirely too feeble, too weak, and too disorganized to make a successful Presidential campaign in 1872? Every hour of honest observation must convince unselfish men of this important fact. It can not per sc defeat the Republican party at all, and it can not elect a successor to President Grant, over the concentrated efforts of even the radical element of (lu» Republican party, unless it can harmonize, and act in concert with the liberal men of the country who desire to overthrow the present Administration, but will only consent to assist in doing it by the certainty of inaugurating a better one, and securing for the Country an abler, sounder, and more consciencious man for President.

When the "old line" Democratic party can make up its mind to adopt, as a party, the advance movement already so sensibly taken by a large portion of its member*, and unite in full and complete harmony with the independent and true men of the whole country who are opposed to all thieves holding office, and to all official stealing and Presidential inefficiency, then there is much hope of its doing much good, and of a change iu the present administration of our public affairs.

T. H. & Cin. R. R.

It will be seen by reference to the proceedings of the Council last evening, that the T. H. & Cin. Railroad Company, through its President, Gen. Pleasanton, presented a communication to that body, stating the terms on which the $100,000 voted by the city, can be accepted, and the road built.

We understand, if the Council and the company agree as to those conditions, the construction of the road will be commenced at once, and prosecuted with vigor until finished,

This communication of President Pleasanton seems to us to contain nothing that is unreasonable or improper. It simply touches at the business affairs of the road, and asks the Council to suffer the company to do just that which every company ought to dof run their road on the best and cheapest route, and place their shops where the interest of the road, through all coming time, require they shall be placed. This is but common sense yea more than that, it is but business sense.

We hope the Common Couucil will throw no impediment in the way of building this important road, but on the contrary, will do everything that is right and proper to be done to encourage its prosecution and early completion.

In these days of active railroad enterprises, this city must say to the world that she will favor and encourage all roads sought to be run into or through her corporate limits. She must do this, if she would bat express the sentiment of her most active, enterprising, and influential citizens. She must do this, if |Bhe would keep pace with the developmentis which on all sides surround her and she can only do this by speaking through her Common Council, which is the mouth-piece of all the citizens, collectively.

The People After Their Honey. The Attorney General of Indiana, Hon. Bayless W. Hanna, after much labor in the examination of vouchers and accounts, is at last prepared to bring suit against all the State officers, present and past, for the restitution of the interest or profits they have obtained from the

ipse

of State or trust funds. On Saturday

-.I',*.

last he said he should proceed at cnce, and with all his might, to the work, and if there was law enough he would add to the public funds all that they had so long been deprived of. It is probable that his investigation will go no further back than 1864, when the Embezzlement Bill was spoiled by a decision of the Supreme Court, as previous to that time the law secured a pretty faithful application of the funds to their proper uses. The present officers are to be allowed a chance to disgorge in their November settlement, but if it is not done they will be put under the same press as the others. It is a formidable job, not only in the number of parties assailed, their wealth and means of resistance, but in the vast accumulation of accounts that must be investigated to determine the amounts due to the State. The list will include, it is supposed, Joseph Ristine, Auditor from 1863 to 186-5, a Democrat Matthew L. Brett, Treasurer at the same time, a Democrat Thomas B.McCarty, Auditor from 1865 to 1869, and John D. Evans, Auditor from 1869 to 1871, Republicans John I. Morrison and Nathan Kimball, Treasurers at the same time, Republicans with John C. Shoemaker, present Auditor, and James B. Ryan, present Treasurer, Democrats, unless, as already remarked, they settle at once. The State Printers during the same period, from the nullification of the Embezzlement Law till now, are to be overhauled, the list including Joseph J. Bingham, Democrat, from 1863 to 1865 W. R. Holloway and A. H. Conner, Republicans, since 1865 to the accession of Richard J. Bright, Democrat, whose operates in Jteok paper have obtained some notoriety,: and secured a tolerably eligible situation for access to the Penitentiary. The Secretaries of State, having never been charged with public trust funds, have had no opportunity to get more than their fees, and, it may reasonably be guessed, will not suffer. These have been Dr. James S. Anthon, Nelson Trussler, Max. F. M. Hoffman, and Dr. Norman Eddy, present incumbent.

Since the transfer to the State Auditor of the duties of the Board of Sinking Fund Commissioners, some few years ago, that officer has had the settling of lajge anwwuts of mortgage debts, due the fund for the benefit of the public schools. As the Legislature met but once in two years, the money thus obtained could be used for private profit for more or less of the two years, according to the time it was paid' iu. The Embezzlement Law prevented this, but it was made inoperative during Mr. Ristine's term, and he pocketed the interest afterward, as all his successors, of both parties, have done. It is impossible to say now bow much each has got, but it is a fact that every Auditor has made a very comfortable fortune, with a salary of but $2,500 a year. The present Auditor, as the Commercial has several time indicated, has, or will have in a few weeks, about $700,000 of Sinking-Fund or school money, the paid in portion of which has been yielding him something like Miss Miggs' "annual goldmine, and found in tea and sugar." His predecessors have, at a very moderate calculation, pocketed $15,000 or $20,000 a year from this source. He will treble this, as the Legislature's bungling attempt to distribute the money to the counties, as noticed by the Commercial, has been foiled by an injunction, and he has all that his predecessors had, and all that has been paid in since, with the certainty of what may come in before January next, if the Attorney General don't stop it. All that has gone into the pockets of these officers has been lost to the schools, and the loss is quite enough-in. the aggregate to have educated ten thousand children in a year.

The Treasurer's "fat" has come from the private use of the State funds, and it has been for seven years a very large and oily chunk indeed. But the present Treasurer is favored far beyond his predecessor iu that he has .all the avails of the State debt tax, about $500,000, for two years, clear and safe, because the Legislature refused to make any appropriation of them—badly as it was needed after the State tax was cut down to five cents, away below the level of necessary expenses—and there is nothing to interfere with him till the Legislature meets in 1873. Beside this he has all the pickings that his predecessors had. The Commercial first exposed this enormous garb and the effect of the Legislature's folly a good while ago, and long before the'lndiana papers had round out any thiug about it. And to the exposures it has made is due in no small degree to the feeling that has prompted these wholesale suits.

The claim for restitution in all these cases rests upon the common law doctrine that the proceeds of the trust funds belong to the trust, and not to the trustees, whatever may have been his efforts in obtaining such proceeds. If the courts sustain him he will make a most happy reform in the administration of the State offices. But one must be pretty sanguine to expect the Supreme Court, at least, to do anything of the kind. They are partizans, and a decision that would make the present officers disgorge Nvould seriously weaken the prospective campaign fund for 1872. And a former court, of the same political faith, not only rode over common law and common sense, but broke down a most beneficent statute, to let the State officers have a chance to use public money for their own profit. The suits will have a good effect :u showing how the people's money is used by their "servants," but that will be about all they will do.

The State Printers'suits will be the heaviest of all, for they could not get money under the law of 1859 only by swekring to their bills, and if there are any peculations detected there must be perjury mixed np with them, and that might be worse than restitution. And the immense number of vouchers filed must make long and tedious trials. Only one thing seems to be clear, and that is that Mr. Hanna means to make a stir among the State officers, and he has taken the right way to do it.— Qin Com.

Twelve Thonsand Dollars More—Another Ruical Defaulter We are informed that the accounts of Henry C. Owens, the Radical Treasurer of Greene county, whose term of office expired a few days ago, show a defieieucy of about twelve thousand dollars. Mr, Owens received from his Democratic predecessor, when he entered upon the duties of Treasurer of the county, a balance often thousand dollars, and after four years' service, he retires a defaulter for about twelve thousand dollars. Mr Owens transferred to his securities, or bondsmen, all his personal property, but we are not advised as to its value. The defaulter can not or at least does not attempt to explaiu.his financial condition, but says he had not expected a deficiency of more than a thousand dollars. It is the old story over again The temptation was too great. He has lived fast, speculated some, and leaves the friends who had confidence enough in him to become his security a large balance to provide for. The evil influence of the extravagant, corrupt and fast leaders of the party in power is constantly being exhibited, and the fall of Owens adds another to the large army of thieves and defaulters that Radicalism has recruited.—Ind. Sentinel.

VICTOR HUGO is to publish this season a volume of poems called "L'Anaee Terrible," in which, it is said, Mr. Bancroft, our Minister at Berlin, is treated with great, severity on account of the letter of congratulation which he sent to Moltke. When Victor Hugo read this letter he was ^greatly enraged, and exclaimed, "As for this Bancroft, I am preparing for him a chastisement. I will attach him to an eternal gibbet." This eternal gibbet is doubtless to be found in "2/Axmee Terribli,"

A CORRESPONDENT has been figuring up the miles of existing telegraph wires. It appears there are four hundred and fifty thousand miles in Europe, one hpndred and eighty thousand in America, fourteen thousand in India, ten thousand in Austraiia, and thirty thousand of submarine. Total, six hundred and eighty-four thoasand miles, to which there are additions being made at the rate of nearly one hundred thousand miles per year. At this rate of increase it will not be many years till all communications are made by lightning, and nearly as cheap as they were conducted years ago by mail.

It is said that if a puff of air were to be blown into a vein of an animal, death would instantaneously follo\y, because circulation would be stopped. The blood makes the entire circuit of the human body every seven minutes, and whenever this circulation is impeded or anyof its channels are clogged by impurities which ought to be carried off, disease follows—fever oi a disorder of liver or kidneys, or scrofula, or dyspepsia. To get at and remove the source of the difficulty, use the old and infallible blood purifier, DR. WALKER'S VINEGAR BITTERS. nov6dw4w

A GRAND OPENING CELEBRATION SALE

that will eclipse anything of the kind ever before heard of in the West. As we say this our minds naturally run back over the eighteen months of struggle with and triumph over, the outrageous Dry Goods Monopoly with which we have had to contend. But under the banner on which we have written, "All goods sold for Cash," "No High Prices," No big profits," "Courteous and Honorable treatment to all," and through the splendid support given us by the people, we have not only triumphed in the contest, but oui*business has increased so rapidly that we have been compelled to build up the Entire Depth of our lot, thus giving us in our three floors and basement, by far the largest Dry Goods establishment in this part of the State Ic is clear that the masses of the people are with us and that they appreciate our efforts to give them the

Every new and jyetty pattern of the season is among them, including an elegant assortment of English"robe figures. These handsomest styles of the best prints we could not now buy ourselves, for less than 12£ cts. at wholesale in New York.
