Questions for John B. Hawlsy and the Rocl
Island Union.

Why is the United States the second
heaviest taxed nation Of the world?
Why are the taxes doubled on iron
leather, lumber, coal, salt aud provisions?
Why the government gets only 100000.
600 when the people pay $6oo,OoO,oo0
taxes?
Why did the very loyal soldier-loving
Hawley vote against paying soldiers ooun-
ties through Postmasters?
| Why did Hawley vote to give railroads
ten years to claim land grants and to give
soldiers only sir months to secure home
| steads ?
Why were the congressional expenditures
| during lS months of Grants adr1 inistration
four times what they we're during the same
time under Buchanaus.
Why were these expenditures during the
three hundred thousand dollars more than
during the same length of time under
Johnson's administration?
Why did Hawley vote to do away with
the tax on gross receipts and to continue
the Infamous income tax?
Why did Hawley vote to relieve rich
bankers from paying orer ten million dollars
taxes and allow the taxation of other prop
erty to make up the deficiency?
Why did he vote to excuse rich capital
lists from paying over tw,enty millions of
tax on incomes, and make tho farmer pay
two and half per cent on his scsnty in
come?
Why did Hswley adrise the authorities
at. Washington TO Kill both IF the bills Cor q
horse railway across the government bridge
at this point?
Why did Hawley outherod Herod in the
most infamous speech, on the admission of
Virginia?
What special claims has Hawley to be
returned to the seat he has disgraced?
What single vote did he cpst in the inter
est of his constituents, aud western inter.
asts?
| Where and when has he exhibited any
man for the position he seeks.
Where is the man that can bring the first
Just charge against Mr.. Cable that he is not
all that the people desire for an able, homes,
and capable representative.
Hawley begs and buys his nomination.
Mr.. Cable has the nomination forced upon
him.
Where is the man who will answer these
questions? is it John B. Hawley? Is it the
editor Of he Onion?
Where is the man?
All through the length of the district
comes the echo-tcheye.
From the farmysrds-fron the pillow fields
from the workshops the stores of
the cities and villsges-from every place
where republican can be found comes the
answer: Let HsWley answer. He was
our chosen representative. He did these
things and he must daswer."

THE Commercial Advertiser of New York,
a Republican sheet, in au article reviewing
the condition of its party in the State, con
cudes as folio VS.:
Judging from the symptoms manifested in
various sections of the State, we are forced
to say that the patient in very bad way.
We say this at the expense of being charged
with giving the cold shoulder to the Repub-
hcan party. In these days of reckless lying
somebody ought to have courage to tell the
truth. If some good friend of General Gran,
would only have the courage to speak the
truth to him it would be productive of much
o d, bat it is unfortunate for the President
that he is surrounded by obsequious fistter-
les without brains and without honesty.

Cur THE L1NE.-Yesterday the work men

had lively time for few moments. The
barge used in hauling dirt swung against
the corner of the Golfer dam and broke it in

affair would cave in. One of the workmen
sprang and cut the line, and as it swung
away it left one of the men in the water, he
was finally helped out and the leak stopped
