ErtrdrogdHce Of the Present Id
gJliuiStTOtiOR.

Every day more light is thrown upon the
astounding corruption of Grant admin
istration Instead of being devoted to the
extinguishment of the Public Debt the
money wrUmg from the taxpayers is squan-
dered III the most reckless and criminal
manner, rendering necessary a still further
increase of taxation, grinding and materi-
ally rctarding the development of the re-
sources Of the country, and clogging the
wheels of commerce. The following COM
meuts by the New York HorId on a speech
delivered by James S. Thayer, of New
York, show how the country has been rob
bed by these cormorants. Independently
of its elOquence and force as a campaign
address, the speech will be found most in
torcsting from statistical point Of view.
Mr.. Thayer shows by stubborn facts and
figures that had it not been for the or
pressed and vilified Soath, Mr.. Boutwell,
would long ere this have found "'bloody
cbasm" in his Treasury, instead of paying
off $3.50, 600, 900 of the debt, and the whole
country would have been bankrupted.
Of the S2,S21, 309, ASS of commodities
which we have exported during the last
six years the South has furnished 81, 323,
06O, $50. In addition to this she has sent
5000, 600, 900 worth of cotton to the man
ufacsuring States during that period. In
fact the South supplied no less than 81,
923, coo, 600 as the results Of her industry
to the national beehive. Mr.. Thayer
clearly and vigorously develops this over
whelming argument in favor of giving solid
peace to the South and shaking hands over
Mr. Boutwells bloody chasm."
Not less forcible is Mr. Thayer's expo
sure of the Grant Bobeson navy swindle.
He states, and he fortifies his statement
by official facts and figures, that during
five years from 1888 to 1912 our navy cost
$50, S2e, 091 .53 and we began the year of
1843 with Al vessels atioat, mounting $50
guns; whereas during the five years from
1857 to 1871 inclusive our navy cost $118, =
OIL ,52S.S1, or nearly four times as much,
and we begun the year Of 1872 with no
more than 20 vessels afioat, mounting no
more than 399 guns. This is certainly
remarkable presumptive evidence of some
thing very like an official swindle, and ne
should have hesitated to believe it, oven
in this age Of defalcations, malfeasanoe.
and corruption, if Mr.. Thayer had not
given US the official statements, which
compel belief, from Admiral Porter's re-
port.
After this Mr. Thayer's further expo
sure Of the syndicate swindle, amounting to
no mors than 50, 900, 600, will excite indig-
nation, but hardly surprise.
