STEEL RAHr-DOUBLE TRACK.
The Iowa plain dealer. [volume] (New Oregon, Howard County, Iowa) 1867-1895, 1872-05-24

Judge Brinkerhof, of Ohio, one Of
the ablest of the free-trade leaders, has
the sense to write as follows:
l want it understood that if the pres
dental contest is narrowed down to a
choice between Greeley and Grant, and
a platform no better than that adopted
at Cincinnati, certainly shall support
Mr.. Greeley, and in that conclusion l
think all free-traders should concur.
If the Democratic party indorses Mr..
Greeley he certainly will be elected, and
it elected be is bound by the platform
to accept the will Of the people upon
the tariff question, as they shall express
it through their representatives in Con-
gress.
Now, the Democrats. by joining the
Liberals, can make the organization
thus formed as Overwhelmingly free
trade as the Republican party is now
protection. In short, the Liberal par
ty. under such circumstances, will be
essentially free-trade party, and as
such should receive the hearty support
Of all free-trade Republicans.

The Mitchell County Press publishes
the n. Y. Tribune extracts that appear
in our paper elsewhere and says Of
them :
"From these extracts it appears that
Mr.. Greeley, before the war, was an
avowed advocate and defender Of the
right of secession, and so far as is known
was the only secessionist in the Repub-
lican party"
The man who asserts any such false
hood is more familiar with the literature
of the gin shop than with the facts Of
history. There is not a prominent Re-
publican Of to-day or the past that did
not endorse these extracts and Give ut
tcrance T. similar views. Abraham
Lincoln, the first Republican President,
in 1854 advocated the same views pre-
cisely. The man who can deliberately
pen paragraph SO false is either an
ignoramous or knave.

ton.

Congress cannot be persuaded to re-
duce the onerous burden of federal tax
alton sufficiently to meet the demands
of an oppressed people. Two hundred
and fifty or sixty millions of dollars a
year would cover all the expenditures
of an economical government, besides
the interest on the public debt, PEN
sions, and so on; yet the republican
majority in Congress insists on taxing
the nation to the extent of four hun
dred millions year, so as to afford lib
eral ''pickings and stealings' for its
friends in office. This is an outrage on
the public that ought to be thoroughly
exposed. The federal taxation might
easily be reduced hundred millions a
year, and the field Of enterprise thus
cleared for vigorous business action but
such just course would not supply the
administration and it's friends with the
"sinews of war; for the coming presi-
dental campaign. 1t would deprive
the Grant politicians of their potcn-
TALLY. The public must be heavily
taxed in order to furnish the party in
position with the means of preventing
their masters, the people, from dismiss
ing them as faithlcss public servants,
and leaving open to exposure all their
worse than equivocal shortcomings in
official station. AS long as Grant &
Co., WELD the sceptre, we must expect
to submit to crushing taxation. There
is no limit to the inordinate greed of
these sinecurists. The hungry horse
leech is nothing beside them. Will
the people renew the sordid grasp of
such cormorants upon the money-bags
of the nation? We cannot think so.-

He is an uncle of the Dents.
A Utica paper says that the Clear

night that the goose swan off, the calf
broke loose and ate the pumpkin, and

and that ended the fair.

Whether Greeley knows anything
about farming or not, his nomination
has narrowed up the Radical soul at
terrible rate.

No one says the Memphis Appeal,
cares anything about Mr.. Greeley's in
consistency. If he has changed
thousand times. his last change is the
most worthy Of all. 1t is great mis-
fortune for the country that the admin
istration does not change. Grant is
consistent in everything; consistent in his
stupidity; consistent in his usurpations
and despotisms; consistent in favoring
centralized despotism consistent in
taking gifts from office-seekers; consist
ent in pensioning his poor kin upon the
tax payers, and consistent in his dishon-
esty and anxiety to obtain wealth by
fleeing tax ridden people. It is
misfortune for the country that President
Grant is so very consistent. The peo-
pie would gladly welcome change, for
any change would be for the better
none could be worse.
