AUDITOR OF STATE OFFICE, I
COLUMBUS, o., Oct. I'd, lS69. !

COLUMBUS, o., Oct. 3D. lS69. !
Editor of Ohio State Journal
DEAR SIR:-lHquiries are being made
at this Office as To the mode of conduct
ing The election of Appraisers of Rea
Estate at the approaching election
whether separate bores, poN-book, rt.
turns, &c, are he kept and made. The
statute provides (Swan & Sayler, pp
75l-2.) that each township outside 0t
cities shall constitute an election dis.
trict; that the County Commissioners
shall divide each city into election dis
tricls, to consist of not less than one
nor more than five wards. in earlt Oi
which districts an thctor. resident q.
The district, shall, at the October elec
tion in he year lati9. be elected Apprais
er of real property i'll such district; ha
THE Judges of election shall keep II SEP
aratp poll-h0ok for the election of safe
Assessors, aud the return thereof. duly
certified as in other eases. shall he made
to The G, unity Auditor, who. with Tie
Clerk of The Court of Common Pleas
and Probate Judge of the County. shal!
open the same and declare the result"
1t is perfectly clear therefore. that
separate poll-books must be kept. and
separate returns be made of the election
OF IncSe ASseSSOTs,-
that separate boxes he kept, and sepa-
rate tickets be used in these elections
but if the ticket used in the election of
other officers contain the name Of the
assessors for the proper district. and be
placed in the same box with the tickets
for the other officers, the Judges would
be Obliged to credit the votes to the party
named on it forassessor, and an election
thus made, will undoubtedly he lawful
but it will be found very difficult and
inconvenient TO connt out the votes from
the same b * and keep two separate sets
ortally-sheets correctly at the same time.
1t will he farbetter, therefore, that sepa-
rate tickets and separate boxes be used
i'm the election of Real Estate Assessors.
AS the election is so near at>hand,
have been requested to hand you this,
that it. may go the public at once.
Respectfully, &c,
JAMES II. GOODMAN,
Auditor of State.
Belmont chronicle. [volume] (St. Clairsville, Ohio) 1855-1973, 1869-10-07

And against this increase unly u few
rif1ing subjects of taxation which have
yielded less than before The greatest
falling off is that of SIP 600 on salaries.
and This is caused by the economical poll
cy of employing fewer officers to do the
Government work.
In short, and TO bring to a direct test
the work OF he new Administration. The
iotal receipts o. internal revenue for the
first quarter of t last fiscal year. that
Is, tor the months of July, August and
september, 1868 where between tllir-
ty-eight and thirty-iiue milIiops of dol
lars. The total receipts for July, Al
%Ilst and the first halt of September,
this year, were S43 S0O, 900: aud the re-
manning days of September will certain
ly make them Si9. 1000, ,0U0 for tie quarter
an increase of more than ten millions
OF dollars, or twenty five rer cent. which
can only be ascribed TO Il more honest
ana energetic administration of the
laws.
This is the result III the first few
months of President Grants term of Of
flee; and when the reform OF the Treas
ury Department has only begun to do
its work. The Commissioner does moi
hesitate to promise that the present in
ternal revenue laws, without increasing
a single tax, will yield S175, ,O0O, 900. or
perhaps SlS5, 900 ,000 Tor the current fiscal
year; AMI. that they may be confidently
expected to produce the latter sum annu-
ally afterward. Meanwhile, the present
Administration has reduced the expen-
ses of the government at rate Which
" ii save more than S25 900, 900 annually.
Thus sum which can not be less than
$50, 900, O0O in all is added to the av liable
resources OF the. treasury for every year.
simply by efficiency in executing the
laws, and honest economy in using the
public money. -..,.- ... .,. . -.
But, even under the administration of
Andrew Johnston, which these facts
show in so unfavorable light, the Treas
ury bad n surplus every year; and last
year the National debt was actually re-
duced, and Ss0.000,0 900 OF It paid out of
the surplus. 1t is therefore plain that
the people are able to pay, and, under
President Grant, are actually paving off
their debt ut the rate of 500, ,000, 900 per
year, and that after eight years of such
administration the entire national debt
will be reduced to onehalf what il now
Is, or only twelve hundred m llion dol
lars.
The weak pretense that the debt can
not he borne is certainly left without
support, and If the people of Pennsvl.
vanla believe the Democratic cry, that
the political campaign this year/is the
trial of President Grants administration

Democratic Law and Assessors.
O..


The Ohio State Journal calls attent foD
20 singular and general negligence of
u law by Assessors, irrespective of party.
so universal and persistent is this omis-
sion TO perform service presented by
the late Democratic General Assembly,
That it amounts to The notification of
,he law. We refer To the Act or the eth
oi May, 1869, ito proUide for tdrinQ
Bonds, Treasury Notes and Fractional
Currency Of the United States, held or
DtUIIed By individuals, companies or cor.
porItiOas IN this State" The act pro-
rIdes that the Assessor of each township
aud wa,d in the State shall, on or be-
lore the 2Ulh day of June, 1869, return TO
the Auditors of the several counties i'm
-pecial lists, all Bonds, Treasury ,otes
tni Fractional Currency. and said Au-
ditor shall cause the same 70 be placed

This has not been 5C,ne. Democratic
as well as Repubiics.. al Assessors. all over
the Stale, have d,-clinesi, or in some styl
omitted 10 mo &c the returns required.

Unconstitutional, impracticable, and q

HOW THE DEMOCRATS ARE ROB-
| RING THE PEOPLE.

The late Democratic Legislature levied
l5 cents on the 500 to pay the ordinary
expenses of the State.
The Republican Legislature which
preceded it levied bat 10 cents ON the
$lOO. -
This extra levy was made to cover the
thieving and extravaganza of the Dem
ocratic officials.
Grants Administration of the Gener-
al Government commenced by. dis
charge from the service of hundreds of
clerks who have lounged around Wash
ington, doing nothing but drawing their
pay, and a reduction of the Army and
Navy expenses, &C., so that twenty-five
millions Of dollars are SaUed annually.
Voters and Taxpayers. if you would
stop these thieves and cormorants from
preying upon your substance, vote for
West, Drennen, Kemp, and an honest
administration of affairs.

NaT the least entertaining feature O.
ne present. canvass is To ne io.nd IN the
Inconsis, rncy exhibited by DemucraIi i,
.edders. " lille George, the gentleman
it one end Oi the State EXPRESSES his all
.i"rience "f cheap labor, Thurman, III,
senator, gives Vent to his teaIs uf Chr
nese Immigration al the other end, and
III The same ground.
Since when has this fear overtakel
nese gentlemen? The cheapest iabo,
We ever knew Was the uureSIuIted toIi
vi slaves. And this was especlally sweet
III the nostrIls of the Democracy. Now,
IT 1t were good to have cheap labor from
negroes, is il not equally good to have
cheap labor from Chinese? If the negro
slave could with prOpriety be brought in
competition with the sweat and muscle
OF the free laborer, can not the Chinese
be so used with like benefit?
But, cries George, the gentleman,
in snrill tenor, and echoes the Senator
in deep bass, 'these Chinese are an in
ferior race, and will be voted by few
designing owners Aud did not the
masses at the South enjoy the same
blessed privilege?
Political consistency" said some one,
"means, after no end of summersaults,
to come down, like a cat, on ONES feet"
But 1t is not well 10 land on the tail, or
worse yet, on the head. George, the
gentleman, and Allen-we beg pardon,
Thurman, the Senator, are, it strikes
the public, in this unhappy condition.
The legs are where the heads ought to be-
Commercial.
