THE NEW CANDIDATE.

As we have already stated, some OF the
Democratic papers of Pennsylvania have
suggested the name Of Thomas A. Scot,
the great railway king, as candidate
for the Presidency on the Democratic
ticket. OF him, the Cincinnati Enquirer
says: There is one thing that can be
said in favor of Thomas A. Scott for
President Of the United States, who is
being pressed for the Office by Pennsyl-
vania journals. As President Of the
Pennsylvania railroad he has exhibited
an ability to which we have long been
strangers in the Executive branch of the
Government He has administered the
affairs of corporation that now sways
its one hundred million dollars Of eapi-
tai with consumate success, and thereby
gives an evidence Of his moral and intel.
lectual force. Half the ability which
has made the Pennsylvania Central
railroad what it is would have given us
splendid national administration and
reduced our taxes one-half Between a
man Of brains like Scott and such
parsonage as Grant there is no compari-
son"

TAXATION.

We approve the resolutions offered by
Mr.. Moore, and adopted by the Chamber
of Commerce yesterday. We fail to
perceive any good reason why merchants
should pay larger proportion Of tax
than people engaged in other pursuits.
The producer first, and then the people
who derive their subsistence from selling,
or manufacturing, or handling. 1t may
be true that the merchant can get the
excessive tax back from the consumer,
provided the consumer will consent TO
pay it. But is not the merchant tax
driving trade from the State, and to the
extent that this is true, is not capital di-
yerted to other States, and does not this
fact leave our merchants in condition
where they are less able to pay? II
the excessive tax on this class diverts
trade into other channels and to other
places outside the State, does 1t not
work an injury to the people generally
as we'll as to those who pay itY II trade
and capital are driven from the State, is
not the ability of the taxpayer to pay
decreased, and is not the wealth of the
State to the extent Of this diverted trade,
decreased We do not assume to be
thoroughly posted upon the intricacies
of trade, and place these suggestions in
the interrogative form. When the war
closed, little remained to the people OF
the State except their desolated terri
tory. There was no general trade, be-
cause the avenues of commerce had been
long closed. The people went to work,
the merchants went to work, everybody
went to work, and despite the most OPP
pressive State government ever known,
they struggled up to the position
they occupy to-day. Immense debts
hung over the State and clamored
for liquidation, while the fields were
yet fenceless and the purses of
the people empty. Nevertheless,
heavy taxes were imposed, and though
they drained the miserable resources of
the people, they struggled on with will
that never tagged. Would it not have
been better not to have seized their
earnings, but allowed them to accumu-
late until they formed fund that might
be taxed without serious detrimentY The

BRooKLYN, October 25.-The coroner
yesterday impaneled jury to hold an
inquest over the bodies of John French
and James Mccarthy, men who were
killed on East River bridge tower by the
falling of a derrick on Monday after
noon. The investigation will take
place to-day. The condition Of Corne-
lius Lynch, John Cook and William
Hines, who are at the city hospi-
tai, was most favorable to their
recovery, but Henry Doherty, the
unfortunate man who fell from a
height of forty feet, is regarded as fa-
tally injured The President of the
Bridge Company, Mr.. Kingsley, states
that the accident was caused by the
breaking of the iron girder, which went
aronnd the top Of the derrick, and not by
any breakage of the wood. The iron
band in question parted where it was
welded together.
A large mass meeting was held last
night at the rink, in accordance with the
call addressed TO the citizens of this
city, in opposition to the special legisla-
ton comforting unlimited power on ire
sponsible commissions, and to the in
competent, extravagant and corrupt
course of the city and county officials.
Addresses were made by prominent citi-
zens.
Mr.. Henry G. Riggs stated that he be
lieved there were discrepancies in the
statements coming from respectable
public sources, touching the city and
county. but the officials made the city
debt eight millions, while this examine
ton Of public documents satisfied him
that the actual debt was thirty millions.
Resolutions we're adopted calling for
the appointment of a committee Of fifty
to demand a full exhibition of all ac-
counts of the city and county.

SO long and ardently that it viii not do

1t is said that Grant has made funny
mistake in his proclamation of martial
law in South Carolina. Union county,
where most of the Ku-Klux outrages are
said to have been perpetrated, was
omitted, while Marion, a county of much
Radical loyalty and many doeile darkies'
was placed under the ban, In this our

tied his usual profound ignorance of the
affairs of the government of which he is
