We publish a card this morning
from a prominent Republican, pre-
senting the name of WILLIAM BA-
KER, Esq, of this city, as the proper
person to receive the nomination of
the District Convention for Congress.
There can be no question but that
Mr.. BAKER would make a most eff
cient representative in the National
f. Congress, such an one as we have not
had for years in that body, and espec-
tally one who would be of service to
the many and increasing interests of
the City of Evansville. The fact is
that the wants of this city have been
almost entirely neglected at Wash
ington City, when an influential and
attentive representative could have
secured for this locality many and
valued favors. 1t is unnecessary for
US to speak of Mr. BAKERS political
soundness. He is a Republican with
out reproach, and with no comprom
ises. While we do not undertake to
indicate who should be selected as
the Republican candidate, from
among the distinguished and able
gentlemen, whose names will be pre-
sented to the approaching Convention,
we take pleasure in directing atten-
ton to the recommendation of Will
LIAM BAKER by our correspondent.

On the second page OF this morn

ing extracts from the Pittsburg Pos,
and New York World, the two lead

States of Pennsylvania and New

the attention of our Democratic read
ers to these extracts, for they express
the honest opinion Of those two pa

This was the opinion of the World
as expressed within the past year.

THE Democrats in Baton Rouge
recently gave a grand ball to the col
ored population, who voted the Dem
ocratic ticket, followed up by a torch
light procession, with speeches from
colored orators. In many parts of
the South negroes that can be induced
to vote the Democratic ticket are
gazetted in the papers with honorable
mention. The negro who votes thus
is y good fellow, but if he votes Re-
publican he is a worthless scamp.
Since some thousands of them voted
with the Democrats in Georgia, the
papers of that party-especially in
this vicinity - have ceased to be
alarmed about negro suffrage and
domination.

COLONEL JOHN W. FoRNEY claims
that he has proof in the recent ut
terances of men who are in the secrets
of the Democratic managers, that one
of tie menus relied upon far success IN
he nect election Is to count the Uotes of
the rebel constituencies created BY Presj-
dential e1ict, and ecclude The cote oftbe
constituencies regularly created by Ian.
1t IS stated still further that, u aeces-
sary, this plan Is to be carried ont BY
FORCE OF ARMS"
We do not anticipate much trouble
on this score. The only Democrats
who had>courage to try the " force of
arms" met with such bad luck,
that it will be some time before any
of that party will be found willing to
again attempt the experiment. Mr..
JOHNSON will do all that low cum
ming and an INSCRIPTIONS use of his
patronage can accomplish to secure
success for the Democracy, but he
will not attempt to carry out his plans
by force of arms. His narrow escape
from impeachment has taught him a
wiser lesson.

Democratic and Republican Taxation


The Terre Haute Express publishes
table of statistics made up from the
official records of the Auditor of
State, which are quite valuable to tax
payers. In October Of last year, the
State Auditor addressed a series of
questions to the several County Au-
ditops, for the purpose of ascertaining
the rate Of taxation from 1860 to 1861
the amount of county Indebtedness,
what portion of said debt was incur
red for war purposes, and other sta
tistics relating to these subjects. Re-
sponses have been receivedfrom most
Of the counties, and they have been
compiled into the table published in
the Express. From it some interest
ing facts may be gathered, illustrative
of the comparative taxation of Repub-
lican and Democratic counties. The
great cry Of Democratic papers and
speakers is for lower taxes. In
many counties of this State the
Democracy have, had unrestrained
and long continued control of taxa
ton, and this table shows, beyond, a
cavi or a doubt, that the average tax
alton in all the Democratic counties
Is greater, and in the Republican
counties it IS smaller. The reports
from the Auditors show conclu-
sively that where the Democratic
party is in. the ascendent, aad
has an opportunity Of bringing
about retrenchment, the taxes are
uniformly heavier; so their present
cry Of "low taxes Is proven false
and hypocritical by the official sta
tistics.
We fnd that in the entire list there
are only three counties in the State
where the tax levy for county pur-
poses was less than in Vanderburgh.
Taking the taxation in 1867 in the
only two Democratic counties in the
State which contain large towns or
cities, and comparing them with Van
derhurgh, we have this result:
Rate of Taxation.
Allen County ct. Wayne......... ...........S2 80
Floyd County New Albany ........... "a
Marlborough County (Evansville).... 40
And so the comparison will hold
good with rare exceptions throughout
the State. During the last city and
county elections we made COMPARE
son of the taxation of Vanderburgh
and the adjoining Democratic coun-
ties for the years previous to 1867,
but not being reported for that year,
we could not give it. From the table
just published we make the following
COMPARISON:
The Evansville journal. [volume] (Evansville, Ind.) 1866-1870, 1868-05-29

We failed, during the heat of the
political campaign, to elicit any an
swer from the Democratic papers or
speakers. which pretended to disprove
or explain these figures. It might be
we'll for them, before they get too
much occupied with the questions of
national Importance, which they claim
involve the issue of low taxes to
explain away these figures, or give
some satisfactory reason for the great
ly higher levies in the counties where
their purity has had control of the ex-
penditures.

WASHINGTON

y WASHINGTON correspondent
says the caucussing among the sew
en- Republican Senators who acquitted
Mr.. JOHNSON before the vote was
taken, was the subject of universal
remark. First, REyERDY JOHNSON,
FEssENDEN, Ross and HENDERSON
had consultation; then FEssENDEN
went over to see VAN WINKLE; next
HENDERSON and TRUMBULL com
pared notes, at the end of which HEN
DERsON went over to Ross seat.
Then STANBERY and REvERDY JOHN
SON had a short conversation, fol-
lowed by one with EvARTs. Fow-
LER then made the rounds of his set,
ending with Ross and VAN WINKLE.
Ross's preliminary votes seemed to
worry REvERDY JOHNSON very much,
and previous to taking each vote on
the articles. JOHNSON took occasion
to have few words with Ross.

Extensive preparations have been
made by the people Of Cincinna att for
decorating the graves Of soldiers
buried in that vicinity on next Satur-
day. a procession VII be formed Of
the police, City Council, city officers,
Judges Of the different courts, Vete-

Grand Army Of the Republic, which
will march to Spring Grove, and there
perform the solemn ceremonies. Gov.
HAYES and staff are expected TO be
present, and take part in the inter
esting and appropriate exercises.
The Grafton will be delivered by Gen.
BURNETT.
In other cities extensive prepara-
tons have been made for the same
purpose, and we doubt not the entire
country will 10 the same manner ex-
press their sympathy for, and admira-
ton of. the brave men who lost their
lives in the struggle to preserve the
Government. Every grave, even the
humblest and most obscure, ought
not to be forgotten.
In our own city. though the prepar-
atoms were postponed a little too
long, we are grati6ed TO know the
event will be bccomingly observed.
The surviving comrades of those who
fell and some of our ladies have been
quite active for the past two or three
days, and will no doubt make up in
energy what they lack in time; and
that the procession and exercises at
the cemetery will be worthy the gall
