IDEAS His salary for the duties
Of p. NJ, has been only $40, per

been onerous and the services would
have been cheap at $500. The
pious men of the moral idea party
call this corrupt tax, "crumbs Of
comfort" which We suppose means
that bribs-money is the bread Of
life to them and theirs. Their
venality and corruption had another
recent illustration. During the war
the men Of moral ideas seized inno-
cent parties and incarcerated them
in bastiles to extort = ransom for
the benefit of moral idea favoritcs.
The same infamous tra6c in despot-

The amount Of money expended
By the republican party il admins
tering the government seven years
has become nearly double the
amount that democrats have cxpend-
ed in administering it seventy years.
It has expended onc-third Of this
sum during the three years since
the war closed. Is party that
taxes the people for 5000, 900. 600
in three years of peace such an
economical one as the people de-
mand? Heretofore $50, 900, 900
has been amply sufficient under
democratic rule at the mcs' "~r"'-
siye times, while about g. 9t'4,
900 was the expenditure curing
democratic rule.
