THE Radicals about Washington
are alarmed at the situation in
Pennsylvania. A Washington dis
patch of The 2Sth inst. to the Lou
isviIle CourierrJourna says: As
things now look, they freely admit
in quiet conversation that the
Democrats will carry the State in
October. The chairman Of the
Republican State Committee, John
Covode, arrived here to-day, and,
with Senator Wilson, who has been
making speeches in Pennsylvania,
had an interview with the Presio
dent, and suggested various meas
ures of relief for the Republican
party. One is that Pennsylvania
be given the existing cabinet va
cancy, so that the State may not
feel that it is ignored by the admin
istration. Other requests men,
toned in to-day's conference have
not transpired. OF course, it will
be telegraphed hence that Wilson
and Covodo declare that the Radi
Gals will carry Pennsylvania, but
their sudden visit to the President
to-day and their cry for help belle
their words"

THE ISSUES,

We may fairly judge of the posi-
ton of political parties in this
State by ascertaining their respoc-
tive positions in other States. In
all the Radical State conventions
which have been held this fall, that
party has declared in favor of the
fifteenth amendment and the pay
ment Of the national debt in coin.
Their opponents have declared as
unequivocally against both these
propositions. 1t is upon these is
sues that the fight is now being made
in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Our
private advices are such as
to warrant us in entertaining the
confident belief that Radicalism is
doomed to meet with a decided de-
feat in both those States. The
people are becoming wearied with
the burdensome taxation which
they have so patiently borne to
keep up the incomes of untaxed
bondholders, under the pretense of
sustaining the public credit and
maintaining the public faith. The
country demands a return of the
government to its organic princi-
pies. The people wish to get rid
of the abuses of Radicalism. They
who vote against Radicalism will,
asstated by the Cincinnati Enquirer,
declare.
l. That money is too scarce and
that they want an additional num-
Der of greenbacks issued.
,. That the bonds shall be paid
as we agreed to pay them, in legal
tender, or they do not want to pay
them at all
3. They want the national bank
circulation retired and greenbacks
issued in their place.
4. They want great reduction of
the tariff; they want the bounties
given to New England manuiac-
turers stopped, and they want the
taxes on all articles of prime neces
sity taken off
.. They want a remodeling OF
the internal revenue system, and the

dismissed.

The Chicago platform, on which
Grant was elected, declares that the
regulation of the question of suf-
frage should be left to the States.
Now tbs party that elected Grant,
or, rather, the Radical wing of it,
insists that the States should give
Congress the control of suffrage.

taxes collected by the State instea d
of the federal officials.
6. They want the Army and
Navy greatly reduced and their ex-
penses curtailed fifty per cent. We
have twice as many men and ten
times as many regular officers as we
require. What army we do have
they will insist shall protect our
Western settlers against the IndiS
ans instead of being employed to
tyrannize over the South.
Z. They will insist that each State
shall regulate the right of suffrage
within her limits, and that negroes
or Chinese shall not vote unless by
consent of the people of each State.
They will resist any attempt to
force it upon US by any other States,
through the federal government.
s. They will declare their hos
tility to the swindling rings and
corruptionists, and will everywhere
favor local reform.
8. They will arraign Grants adj
ministration for its cowardly for
eign policy-for its trucking to
Spain and subservieney to England

appreciation of his farming out all
the offices to his relatives, and to

the South had been desolated by war.

Of the soil, but the astonishing energy of

RErORM DEMANDED.

The subject If taxation should
command the early attention of
the Legislature. The people of no
State have been SO terribly bur-
dened with taxes as have those of
Tennessee. 1t was not a necessity
which imposed the exorbitant taxes
the people of this State have had
to pay, but to support the most ex-
travagant administration we have
ever had. Not only were salaries
increased, but offices were created
with large salaries as a reward for
Radical politicians. This policy
has been continued through the en-
tire time the Radicals held pos
session of the State government.
Let us illustrate the condition uns
der which the people have been
ground almost to powder under
this enormous burden Of taxation.
The taxes imposed upon the pec-
pie for State purposes under Radi-
cal rule have been as follows:
