Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1858-09-30

RE- Mr.. Reeve, we understand, is try
ing to make political capital out of the
fact that some Of the Republican County
Candidates were returned Delinquent for
non payment of Taxes. We Admit that
they are poor, and that they have been re-
duced to that condition by misfortune
Mr.. Reeve thinks it crime to be poor, and
parades list, as he says. of 400 Delin-
quent Republicans in this county. His
object is, he says, to show that if these bad
citizens were to pay their taxes the county
would be out of debt and large surplus
remain in the treasury. But what justi6-
cation is this for the extravagant allowan-
ces made to the County Officers. and the
enormous and extravagant expenditure of
S401 for Stationery? A sum
nearly three times greater than was expen-
aed in the county of St. Joseph, containing
almost double the population of ours,
for the same purpose. If that sum was
honestly and legitilnately expended for the
article mentioned, why are the particulars
withheld? 1t is suggested that they are
preparing some sort Of an answer to this
to be put forth on the eve Of the election,
at too late an hour to be exposed. The
people are too intelligent to be deceived by
such game.
= If the Democratic candidates are again
elected in this county at the approaching
election the people should not complain OF
being made pack-horses Of, for they now
have the remedy in their own hands and il
they fail to apply it they will have to sub
init to their fate. They have an earnest Of
what will be done in what has been., =
In regard to Delinquent Republicans we
venture the assertion that there are as ma.
ny Democrats. all of whom will under
stand by Mr., Reeves course in this matter
what he thinks of them. If be is not in
favor Of law DISTINGUISHING all men who
cannot exhibit their tax-receipts for thepre,
vious year when they offer their ballots
there is no sense in his parading the sub,
ject in the way he does. lie tries TO show
that men who cannot. no matter from what
csuse, pay their taxes promptly, are unf'
for office. 1t follows. as matter Of course
that if they are uniitto hold office they arr
unfit to vote. The Dor. and unfortunate
can thus see what the gentleman and hi'
party think Of them. With their arms NJ

CO That Lying sheet, the Marshall
County Democrat, persists in asserting
that Mcssrs Fuller, Oglesbce, and Barnard,
the Republican candidates for Auditor,
Treasurer and Sheriff, were returned De-
linquent. Wehave explained how Messrs-
Fuller and Oglesbec came to be returned,
and no man whose cause was not despe'
rate one, would have repeated the charge,
under the circumstances. But the people
understand the matter and will give the
dirty libellers rebuke they viii not forget
soon. Mr.. Barnard paid his taxes before
the Thing made the charge.
In the last Number of that debased Goa.
Germ the name of Moses Kcyser. the Re.
publican Candidate for County Commits
sioner, is held up as another Delinquent
| 1t is totally and entirely false. II he was
returned delinquent it was the Treasurer
neglect. Mr.. Keyser has his receipt for his
last years taxes in his pocket, which he
/
paid before the time expired allowed BY
law. a deputy collector called on MIR. X
some time ago for MS taxes, when he shew
ed him his receipt. Mr.. X. also called since
then at the Court House and exhibited hi
receipt either to the Auditor or Treasurer
Why have the books not been corrected
Are men who will make such blunders e
to be retained in office?
The people can see from the above how
little reliance can be placed in the Demo
Gratis statements. It's source of informa
tien. in regard to Delinquents, it win b
observed, is equally unreliable. We ar
told that cases like Mr.. ,Keyscr's are nu
morous. snd that even mems farms hay'

The Kansas Gold Discoveries Officially
Confirmed.
WAsHrNcrox. Sept d

WASHINGTON. Sept. q.
Gov Denver writing to the Secretary of
the Interior, September Il. says that late
arrivals from Pixies Peak leaves no room
to doubt the correctness of the reported
discoveries of gold in that vicinity. The
explorer have found gold on the Arkansas,
on the head Of the Kansas river, and ON
the south fork of the Platte River, embra-
eng an extent of the country of more than
800 miles. The richest mines yet found
are on Cheney Creek. tributary of the
Sonth Platte, directly north of Pixies
Peak.
Governor Denver had not yet heard of
quartz but the best information would seem
to Indicate great similarity between these
mines aud those first discovered in Cal.
ifornia.

that 4O1 Dollars were expended last

ANCIENT DExrERITY.-One of the
early kings Of Egypt, being DESTROYS to
secure his riches, commanded treasure
house to be built; bnt the architect, in.
tending to have some share of the trea-
sure. instead Of finishing the building
completely, placed one 81 the stones in
30 artful manner, that it could be taken
out and put in again by one man. AS
he was prevented by death from accom-
plishing his design, on his death bed
he gave full instructions to his two sons
how to execute it. After they had for
some time plundered the treasury, and
carried off large sums, the king, who
observed the gradual diminution of his
wealth, without being able to discover
how the thieves had access to it, finding
his seal upon the door always whole.
ordered several strong traps to be left in
the treasury. By this means one of the
brothers was at last taken but finding
It impossible to escape, he pressed his
brother to cut off his head, and retire
with it to prevent any discovery.
The next morning, examining the
success of his project, upon finding a
man without head in the snare, hast
ened out in the greatest alarm and con-
fusion; but, recovering himself, he or
dered the body to be exposed on tie
outside Of the wall to the public view,
c6efging the guards placed around it to
0ooefve the cOuntenances of the specta.
tators. and to seize those who appeared
sorrowful. The surviving brother, urg-
ed by his mothers entreaties and
threats of exposure. formed the design
OF carrying off his brothers body
Accordingly, driving his asses thither,
laden with skins Of wine, he found
means. by the stratsgem of letting his
wine run out, to intoxicate and supply
the guards. While they were in deep
sleep, he shaved the right cheek of each
OF them, BY way of dsrision, and in the
middle Of the night carried of the BODY
on one of his asses.
This action still more astonished the
king. who. being now more earnest to
discover the thief, ordered his daughter
70 receive the addresses of all suitors
promiscuously, on condition that each
should previously confess to her the
most ingenious action he had ever man.
aged. and the greatest crime he had
ever committed. The young man, re.
solving again to perplex the king. went
% the place to his daughter, and con-
fessed TO her that he had cut off his
brothers head, and afterwards carried
of the body. When she then offered to
lay hold Of him, he stretched out to her
the arm of dead man, which he had
carried in under his cloak, (suspecting
the intentions Of the king) and, while
abe supposed shs had detained the Gull
prit. he made Els escape.
The king resentment being now con.
vertsd into admiration, he promised q
pardon and reward to the person who
had robbed his treasury, il he would
discover himself. The young man. up
on this proclamation, immediately made
himself known, and the king thereupon
accounting him far superior in dexterity
70 any man living, gave him his daugh-
ter ID marriage. 8N = d
