1 HUDSON & ROSE, GAZETTE, Terre Haute, Ind.

FOR GOVERNOR IN 1S72,

Washington C. le Pauw,

OF FLOYD COFJfTY.

WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1871.

Ix the New York Times, the able or. gan of the Administration in the metropolitan city, in an article favoring the President's views in relation to a general ^amnesty, we find the following significant periods: "Congress cannot do better than to immediately embody in law the suggestion of President Grant regarding amnesty. It would, in doing so, only respond to the general feeling of the country it would carry out the policy already indorsed by the Houso of Representatives and it would remove from the Republican scheme of reconstruction not only the single serious objection that can be honestly brought against it, but the only obstacle to its success that can be reached by legislation."

Over and repeatedly, in the columns of the GAZETTE and elsewhere, have we during the last few years, asserted that the disqualification imposed by the Fourteenth Amendment, was an "obstacle" to the full and amicable restoration of the people of the South to the general government. The organ of the Administration now says the same tiling. The Times further says: "Now that the heat of feeling has subsided, it is seen that whatever was the justice or necessity of giving the freedmen the. suffrage, the exclusion of prominent Southerners from office has worked badly. It has placed beyond the reach of the Southern people the most natural remedy for local misgovernment, by forbidding them to employ in the work of Government the men best fdted by training and position to perform it economically and efficiently, and at the same time most interested in having it so jjerformed."

What a pity that the Times and its radical associates had not seen this years ago. Human nature was the same thea as now. Men were governed by the same feelings and passions then, that control and govern them now. If the "exclusion of prominent Southerners from office has worked badly," it is a great misfortune, an inexcusable blunder that the men who stood at the head of our affairs, never found it out before. It required but the sagacity of a parvenue statesman to have known years ago, that this exclusion would "work badly." Re peatodly in tiie columns of the GAZETTE, and elsewhere, have we asserted that tliis exclusion was wrong, and would work badly. The organ of the Administration now confims what we then said.

This exclusion from a participation in their domestic affairs, "has invited and not restrained" the leading men of the South, says this organ of the Administration. Pour years ago, three years ago, two years ago, one year ago, six months ago, the conservative men ot the Republican party all over this country, told the Administration this same thing, but the radical leaders who then had the control, of the party denied this. Now comes the organ of President Grant, and admits what was then said by the more sensible members of the party, was and is true.

It has placed beyond the reach of the Southern people the most natural remedy for local misgovernment, by forbidding them to employ in the work of the Government,the men bestfitted by training and position to perform it economically and etticiently, and at the same time most interested in having it so performed." Is not this strange language to come from the organ of the Administration in the great city of New York? One, two, three and four years ago, the conservative men of the Republican party told these very radical leaders, that this very thing would occur. They said: "No, verily." General Grant said: "No, verily." The New York Times said: "No, verily and the "exclusion" went on and radical reconstruction went on and Southern oppression went on and Ku Klux organizations went on and the military went on down South and bills to suppress "Southern outrages" were passed and it became necessary to spend millions of dollars because a radical Cougress had forbid "men the best fitted by training and position" to participate iu the affairs of their State government*.

This paper, ever since it first came under the management of the present editor, and the editor long before that, on every occasion when referring to this subject, said that the course being pursued by the radical leaders of the Republican party, towards the men of the South, was wroug, unmanly, uuchristain, and iu time the whole country would acknowledge it as a mistake. The New York Times, the organ of this radical element, in the article now before us, uses the following language iu relation to this very matter •'There is, moreover, this to be said in favor ot removing those disabilities which experience has proved it was a mistake to impose." "Which fexperience has proven it was a mistake to impose." What are we to think of the statesmanship of the men who have

for

and

years participated in, urged

advocated this mistake? Are they men fit to be followed further? We think not. We have over and often denounced them as mere politicians and wholly devoid of any statesmanlike views. Their organ now confirms our opinion of them. Gen. Grant puts the case strongly, in his late message, in the following language:

Wben the purity of the ballot is secure, majorities are sure'to elect officers reflecting the views of the majority. I do not see the advantage or propriety of excluding

men

from office merely because they

ere before the rebellion, of standing character sufficient to Je elected to

positions requiring them to take an oath to support the Constitution and admitting the eligibility of those entertaining precisely the same views, but of less standing in their communities."

When an enlightened public opinion forces those political demogogues in the Senate of the United States who for mere partisan purposes and asaconsummation of their blundering mistakes, to again consider the work of reconstruction and general amnesty, we have some hope that something will be done in the right direction. Their puerile statesmanship is becoming apparent to all, and even the President is breaking away from their influence, and advocating that which addresses itself favorably to every unprejudiced and unselfish man in the country

The Bills of Particulars in the Case of Kimball and McCarty—Affidavit of An thoiity of Attorneys in the Evans Case

DRY GOODS,

A A E N E

Our citizens are familiar with tlie. claims put forth by certain of our competitors to being the "leading House," "The Great Headquarters," the "Chief Emporium." Some go so far as to assert in so many words, that their sales are larger than any other Dry Goods house in the city.

WE PROPOSE TO TEST THE QUESTION!

We believe our sales, even in our store before it was enlarged, and when we were badly crippled for room, far exceeded those of any single Dry Goods establishment in town. Now, owing to the splendid addition made to our store, which gives us, in our

three floors and basement, much the largest Dry Goods and Carpet Establishment in this section of the State, we have ample room for doing an immense trade, and for the accommodation of all our customers. Our recent sales, we believe, are

Greater than those of Any Two Other Dry Goods Houses

We propose to test the question by challenging any two of our competitors to com

COMPARE THEM THUS COMBINED WITH OURS,

Each firm to make affidavit to the correctness of the amount of sales reported, and to permit inspection of any or all of their books that the committee may desire to examine in order to arrive at a correct decision.

We propose to show this community that in spite of the fact that every one of the Dry Goods merchants of this city are combined against us, and in most instances do not scruple^o employ means, however unworthy, to injure our trade, we are still so grandly supported in our warfare upon high prices by the people, that our sales have increased sp rapidly as now to be, we believe, Greater than the Sales of any Two of

our Competitors Combined Now, gentlemen, walk up and "toe the mark," or else admit you DARE NOT make

the comparison of sales asked for. In the latter case do not let us hear anything more about your "Leading Emporiums" and "Great Headquarters."

Our Great Opening Sale Continued
