THE INTERNAL REVENUE ROGUES.
To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:- .

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:-
SrR-In your article on the Increase of the Ma
tional Debt" In Sundays HERALD, you are very
right in saying that 'there surely must be something
rotten in the Treasury department" There Is. But
Is 1t altogether 'fncapacity and msmanagemensfn
think not. II Secretary McCulloch would cut loose
from the trammes OF the gold and whiskey rings OF
New York, and would faithfully endeavor to have
the revenue OF the country honestly collected and
punish the rogues, officials and others who colleague
together to rob the Treasury, instead OF folding his
hands and cOmpacently looking on while they per-
petrate their nefar0us schemes OF plunder the peo-
pie would not long be cursed with the enormous
taxes they now have to labor under. The public
debt would soon show healthy decrease instead
OF an alarming increase, the burdens OF the
people would be lighteDed and we might hope
to see greenbacks approximate nearer In value to
the gold standard But IL Is useless TO expect such
action the part OF Secretary McCulloch. For the
last six or seven months lie has had lists Of the names
OF men engaged In whiskey and tobacco frauds in
New York city, with the proof at hand to convict
them yet no action has ever been taken against any
OF them. When Secretary McCulloch knows how cor
rupt many OF the revenue oilcas are-in direct col
fusion with the whiskey men and their bogus bonds
men-some OF them, In fact, having been in the
business, and he still retains them in ONCE; when
he knows that there are In this city men connected
with assessors oilces who, for q small bride, are In
the habit OF making out false income returns for
property holders and does not take any steps to
bring them 10 justice; when he knows there Is an
Immense deal Of smuggling OF tobacco from Virginia
to the immediate neighborhood OF this city

that through the mismanavement OF Secretary
Mctllloch during the last two years, ending say
February, 1888, that the government was robbed OF

TIE VERMONT BANK ROBBERY.

lFr0m the TrOy Times, August 10.
The First National Bank at East Bennington, VT,
OF which H. Il. Graves Ia president, was robbed on
Saturday night OF bonds and money to an unknown
amount. The stolen plumber was contained In one
OF Lilies old burglar and fire proof safes, tho lock
OF which was picked, showing the hand or most
skilul and dangerous cracksman. The operator LETT
not scratch or mark upon the exterior OF the sale,
simply removing the dial OF the lock, after which
he opened the safe by the extraordinary means we
have stated. The robbery was discovered yesterday
afternoon by Mr.. Graves, who visited the bank for
some purpose, and was present some time i'm the
building before he observed any indications OF the
robbery, Upon opening the exterior door OF the
safe he discovered that all the bonds and securities
deposited by individuals with the bank for safe keep
ing had been extracted the amount Of which, as we
have said. is not known. Mr.. Graves was unable to
open the interior door, and Mr. Sterling OF this city,
was sent for to effect an entrance lie went up this
morning and we have not heard the particulars OF
the developn ents made regard to the bank funds
and securities, which were kept In the inner safe.
AS we write. II is not known whether the
burglars entered this portion OF the vault, but 1t Is
supposed they did, and alter extracting the valua-
bes changed the combination OF the lock and re-
locked the door, so as to delay as long as possible
the full development OF their crime. II this suppo.
stion correct IT Is probable the amount Of money
stolen will not exceed $4,000, as the bank dd not
usually have large sum on hand, but kept Its re-
serve funds on deposit In Troy and New YORK. But
whatever may be the amount taken, IL cannot affect
the standing OF the institution, which ~ perfectly
solvent and reliable The individual losses must DO
heavy, but by these the bank will not suffer-

Six States Restored.

The Democratic party, thwarted in its
attempts to restore the Southern States
to the control Of the impenitent rebel
aristocraey and the loyal North to the
yassalpge Of a Southern OIigarchy,
very naturally pours out its bitterest
wrath upon the Congressional plan Of
reconstruction. : Yet in spite of preia-
dice, of political treachefy, rebel con-
tumacY, and the most powerful oppO-
sition that plan has been measureab1y
successful and we ara saved from polit-
ical servitude more degrading than bon
dage. At the same time the military
despotism," /" OF which such loud COM
plants have been made by the North
ern sympathizers with the Southern.
malcontents, has been removed by..a-
breath, civil authority substituted, and
the right of self-gOYernment given to all
The people of the reconstructed States.
These things have been accomplished d
not by Democratic aid but in spite of
Democratic opposition. Last week Ar
kansas was brought beck, ,notwithstand-
ing JohnsOn's veto and the votes and
protests of Democratic members, 10 the
fellowship of States. We can now
chronicle the same of North and South
Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and Florida
whose representatives viii be admitted
to Congress as soon as the fourteenth
amendment shall have been ratified by
their legislatures now about to convene.
OF course Mr.. Johnson put himself on
record by his veto against the restora-
ton of these States as did the Demo
cratic members by their votes, These
gentlemen with their usual consistency
have voted to Perpetuate the military
despotism'' about which they have coma
planned so much and to deny the South
ern people the self-government and
representation for which they have so
loudly clamored. They would keep
these States out forever rather than not
have them come back held in the clutch
es Of their old masters. Let the tax-pay-
ers remember that these Democratic
members have every one voted to fas-
! ten permanently upon them the expense
of supporting military governments in
the South rather than have the civil
| authority placed in hands not blacken-
ed with treason or dyed in the blood OF
Union men. Such is the Democratic
desire for the restoration of the Union
and for retrenching the expenses of
government! They never cease in
their twaddle about the ''oppression''
of impenItent disloyalists but by their
own showing they would rather perpet-
uate anarchy, taxation, despotism, any
thing than allow to the hearty earnes
Unionists of the South the privileges
enjoyed by rebels. 1= a

Gen. Grants statesmanship.

Some of our cotemporaTles are IN a
painful state of patriotic apprehension
and alarm lest Gen. Grants abilities as
a statesman should not prove equal to
the duties of the Presidential Office
"Other Presidents" say they, have,
in their messages to Congress, taken
the initiatiVe in legislation by propo-
sing and recommending measures but
Gen. Grant begins by declaring he
has no policy" This is q mistake.
Gen. Grant has not declared that he
viii have no policy, or that he will not
perform his constitutional duty of
recommending to Congress such meas
ures as he shall deem proper for their
consideration. He has declared, on
the contrary, that he has policy, and
that his policy is not to enforce any
policy against the will of the people.
We cordially indorse this declaration
as eviBeing, in the first and most vital
point, a sound view Of the functions of
a President under our Constitution.
We further commend it as truer states
manship than many of our Presidents
have displayed. In stating that he
has NO policy to enforce against the
will Of the people, Gen. Grant i'm
plies that his whole energies will be
devoted to enforcing such policies as
the people, through their representa-
tives in Congress, shall have embod-
led into law The maintenance of
peace and order, the protection of the
rights of all classes to invest and la
Dor and to reap the fruits of their cap
ital and industry, are boons which
through more than half the area of
our country have never been enjoyed.
Gen. Grants in securing these to the
South, will add hundreds of millions
of dollars per annum to the wealth
and prosperity of that section. The
maintenance of peace upon our Indian
frontier, and the substitution of the
reign of law for violence and brute
force IN our mining and border dis
tricts, would immensely aid the deVel-.
opment-of the mineral Territories into
States, and the outward flow. Of wealth
which the Government and people
would derive from the precious metals
toward the redemption of the national
debt. The vigorous enforcement Of
our'revenue laws would at once great.
ly cheaper the objects Of revenue to

the Government, lessen the burdens Of
honest taxpayers, and turn out Of
office the tax-thleves who now stand
between all imported and manufac-
tured articles and their consumers, and
gorge. themselves by plundering alike
producers, consumers and the govern
ment. In achieving these great re-
suits, Gen. Grant will win a success
far more difficult and glorious than
could arise from any influence he

From the Salem Republican,.
The Economy Of the General Assem-
seu s blV,

1t is worthy of remark, especially by
the taxpayers, that the Annual ADprO-
priation bin, passed by the General AS
sembly this year, is almost a half a
million of dollars less than it was last
year, when it was Republican. This is
a pretty handsome reduction of our
Democratic friends.-OhiOEa Patriot.
Last week, we exposed the means re-
sorted to, by the Democracy, to reduce
the general appropriation bill below
that of the preceding winter. The ex-
penses ofthe State Governments are no
less this year, than last, but forelection-
eering purposes, alone-the blind, in-
sane, idiotic, and deaf and dumb-that
unfortunate class of our people who are
dependent upon the beneV0lence of the
State for their education and training,
were left with an insu mcient appropri-
alton; and even deprived of the sefvi-
to them upon the Sabbath, and watched
with them in sickness,-fOr the purpose
Of making q show OF retrenchment, in
order that through the press and on the
stump, the Democratic leaders might
deceive the people on the claim of econ
Omy. The soldiers, also, were denied
the means of looking up, successfully,
their claims and dues, by the Demo-
Gratis refusing to complete the 'sRecord''
necessary to the work, In the Office of
the Adiutant General. 1t cost a few
dollars, and they must retrench, espec-
tally if soldiers were to be benefited
That is the economy they boast of; but

BOWLING GREEN, KY, June q.
Nathan Dawson, an ex-FederaI SOL
dier, was brutally murdered by the Ku-
Klux Khan near Woodburn Station, in
this county, on Saturday night. His
sole Offense was that he had been in the
Union army. The assassins went to
his home after dark and called him to
the door. AS soon as it was opened
they discharged their revOlYers in his
face, killing him instantly and shoot
ing his wife through the neck as she
ran to his assistance.
There is a settled determination on
the part of the Ku-KluX Klan in this
quarter of Kentucky to drive out or as
Eassinate every Union man in their
midst. Hardly a night passes without
an outrage Of some kind being COM
mitted. Union men in all quarters are
preparing to leave the State. The reb-
els seem determined to accomplish by
the assassin. g knife what they fail to
achieve in open battle.
