Ihave always asserted ii as a fact, which
would invariably be sustained by the doc
uments, that tire inevitable result Of whig
legislation is, high mres to the people;
and ! have wondered, that during the
preaeDt contest, the wing Journals and
our present Auditor Of State have been
su4fered to glorify the present 6nancia!
position Of Ohio without having the docu
ments stuck under their noses, which
should show the people Of Ohio the true
state Of wbig 6DancierDg. The whig.
Vbrag of the stability Of the credit OF The
State, brought about by their financial
system: and still il is an incoDt rovertible
fact, that our State stock sold higher, al
the time the finances Of the State, were
under democratic management, and when
our late Auditor (Mr. Brought handed
over the Auditors. Office to his whlg sue
cessor, than they Lave ever since. And
that was effected by dem ocrats, W ilh less
taxation upon the people, less revenue
from the public works,-than Woods has
had under his control, as the follow ing
alton for State purposes in 1874. when Mr..
BRouoH was Auditor as per Auditors
report, we're $9is, ,996 63

And 10 ls4S, at three mills on

not be less than 1850, 900 10 !
II will thus be seen, that 10 four years
Of uninterrupted whig government, we
have advanced the snug round sam Of
three hundred ih5usand dollars in taaing
the people.
The wings have most glorions way OF
covering up their financial blunders, and
that is the way TO pile up taxation on the
people.
And is this all! No! In addition The
the whlg Auditor has had TO help him an
en- ormons increase 10 the receipts Of our
public works, the result of The democratic
tariff policy Of 1916.
In l646 the receipts incre ased ever lS45
s7s 1896, and in ls47 over 1916. Sl92,71s
making with the increased taxation al
ready referred to, an excess of receipts ut
half million Of dollars which the whiI
Auditor had over the democratic Auditor
and still our State stocks can hardly be
held near par.
