THELOCOS--THE WING TARIFF

If the Locos are such strenuous support.
ers ofthe pres mt Wing tariffas they pre-
tend % be, they are most wanton y misrep
resented in their party presses.
In proof of what we say, we give an ex-
tract from the Quincy (lllinois) Herald, of
January 1914, about eighteen months after
the passage ofthe Wing tariff.
"Thc Tariff-Now that the business of
the country is reviving, the Wing press are
fostering themselves to find out an adequate
cause Most of them attribute our coun-
try's returning prosperity to the present
tariff, passed by the coons during the last
Congress"
"The Tariff, to be sure, has benefited the
sugar planters of Louisiana, the salt manu-
facturers of New York, and the cotton and
wooden establishments of New England
THE editor might also have included the
iron manufacturers and the coal interests OF
Pennsylvania If this tariff exists in it
present shape three years longer, these mo
nopolisls will have amassed princely for
tunes. Butte the great mass Of the Amer
can people, the tariff, instead OF being bene
fit, has been curse"
Here is another from a manufacturing
State The NewHaven Register;
"BLAcK TARIFF AND THE FARMFRs-
The late Wing Congress was just such
one as we might expect would follow coor
skin and hard cider election; and We ar
no, sure but that it will enjoy the notorlou
reputation with us, which The Leak Learn
! ing Parlment" does with the Engllsi
: Among the many measures which receive
the approval ofthe body, there ls none NOR
disgraceful than the black tariff act, as II
annronria,ely called, - FroI
the North as we'll as the South, the cry
, it is oppressive, unequal, and unjust.

GENrLEMEN-Yes esterday made a state- ment before portion of your committee III relation to the case of Coy. James $. Conway. 1 will now state, in writing, as nearly as my recollection of the facts will enable me.
 was the contractor for furnishing supplies for the volunteers who were called into ser vice by Gen. Gaines from the State of Arkan- sas They were called into service i'll the summer and fall of 1856.
 There was large number of horses en- gagged by the Quarter Master (Martin,) to transport the baggage of the Regiment. A portion of the Regiment was marched to Fort Towson, on or near the Red River, and subsequently, by order of Gen. ArbuclSle, were marched from Fort Towson across to Fort Gibson, distance of near two hundred miles. That four other companies were also marched from different parts of the State oi Arkansas to Fort Gibson. The first requsitlon made for funds was, think, for ten thousand dol lars; this was made by Gov. Conway. This sum am certain did not pay anything like the amount then due, and subsequently, at my suggestion, and that of Capt. k. D. c. Collins, of the United States army, requisi- ton was made for fifteen thousand dollars. This sum was paid, as l believe, as fast as accounts were presented in proper form to myself and others know that Capt. k. D. c. Collins was in the habit of arranging ac- counts and vouchers for the most oi persons who had claims upon the Government on account of their volunteers; and believe he had almost entire control and management of the disbursing of the funds above mentioned.
 At that time he stood high in the confidence of the people and of the Government, was disbursing officer of the United States in the Indian Department, and had the control ot a very large amount of moneys, and not until long after 1898 was it ever hinted that he was defaulter. l think he had been in Arkansas disbursng money for public and oth- erwise, for some seven or eight years After the Regiment arrived at Fort Gibson, the Quarter Master, by order of Col. Vose, then in commando made purchase of seven oi the wagons and teams, which had to be paid for out of the acquisitions, and think there were some twelve or fourteen teams employed as well as my recollection serves me. car speak most confidently of the fact that Cap tain Collins was m the habit of settling the business and accounts ol the Regiment toi Gov. Conway. My impression was then and still is, that the last requsitlon of fifteen thousand dollars would very little more than pay the demands upon it. inferred t iroSs the previous amount of expense incurred.

in the U. s. army, as man, together with a knowledge of the fact of his having been for many years disbursing officer for the Gov ernment, he thought he could not assign the duty to more safe and appropriate hands than to his. Under these circumstances, lie did not hesitate to place the fund at his disposal, and request his services in their proper appii- cation. This done, he gave himself no further concern in relation to the matter until the disbursements were gone through with.
 Some time afterwards, the Treasury Depart- meht drew his attention to the subject, and requested settlement of his accounts. He then called on Capt. Collins to render him an account of the disbursements. Said Col llns delayed a compliance time after time for several months. always assuring your peti- toner that atllis first leisure he would arrange the vouchers in proper order, prepare the necessary duplicate accounts current, and have the whole Ill such condition that the business should give your petitioner no trouble, that 1t would all be right, &c. &c
 Your petitioner ultimately discovered that he was deceiving him; that he not only had the business with which he had been entru.t- cd in great confusion, but learned with much surprise, that the said Collins own accounts with the Government were in equally bad, if not worse condition. Your petitioner then made an imperative call OH him for his vouch- CTS, and he brought him in one general heap ol the most confused mass of papers that your petitioner ever beheld, and saying as he delivered them, "This is not all, there are great many more, which will hunt up and deliver in few days.n Thus ended his agency Tn the matter, never rendering another voucher, and leaving the large balance which still stands against your petitioner on the books of the Treasury unaccounted for. l That the said Collins did make further proper payments, to within one thousand dol- lars of this large balance, your petitioner verify believes, and that vouchers for the same in most instances were obtained, but were mis- placed and lost by the said Collins. At ell events, your petitioner has the satisfaction of knowing that more than five thousand dollars of this remaining large sum is not justly chargeable to him, and that the residue was certainly madeuse of by Capt. Collins. Your petitioner would further represent, that with the hope and expectation of being able to find among the papers of said Collins, vouchers covering large portion, If not the whole residue of this large balance, did visit the city of Washington ill March last, and pre- vailed upon the Solicitor of the Treasury to direct the suit ip his case to be continued from the last April term 10 the succeeding October term of the Court, to give time for the necessary examination to be made for such vouchers, and although such examina- ton has been diligently made, not another voucher has been discovered. Therefore, your petitioner hunlbly prays that Congress will pass bill for his relief; and as in duty bound, your petitioner will ever pray.
