The evening Argus. [volume] (Rock Island, Ill.) 1861-1871, 1866-10-24


denounced ii as cheat and . swlndle and IN
outrage upon the people OF the west. A few
DAYS ago we showed that, under the pretence
of modifying some of the discrepancies be-
tween the internal revenue and tariff laws,
congress, q day or two before it's adjournment,
passed "a bill for the protection of tho reven-
ue," and into this bill there was struggled .
clause which virtually increased the whole
range OF ad calorem duties from ten to thirty
per cent. The "cheat, the swindle, the out.
rage. the robbery of the people of the west"
was thus contaminated, but has the Chicago
Tribune been heard in denunciation of it in
the campaign this fall? II is working with
all its energies to continue the unlawful ex-
clusion from congress of men who would op-
pose such ''robberies of the people of the
west" 1t is working with all its energies to
continue in power the very men who perpe
trated the robbery. 1t will not present to it's
readers the national issues in which the peo-
pie of Illinois are most materially interested,
and in this it follows the course of the lea
ders of it's party in this state. New England
controls the party and she is determined that
the western and southern states shall sweat
for her benefit. There is great deal more
OF hypooritieal cunning and selfshness about
her policy than there is of fanatioism. The
people of the west, in voting with her, vote to
make themselves hewers of wood and draw
ers of water to her.

Deserved Praise.

We find the following merited tribute of praise
to our fellow-citizen, Mr.. O'Bren, in the Indian
apOlis Herald. He is one of the most effective,
as well as one of the most talented and pleaaing
speakers in the west. The Herald's words are
harmonious with public opinion everywhere;
In the remarkable canvass which has Just
closed, the democracy of Indiana have been plac-
ed under weighty obligations to the Hon. W. w,

logical and eloquent appeals in behalf Of the pol.

wear the palm leaves of the eonqueror or the

During his brief canvass in this state he has
made hosts of warm friends.
