WHO is KEEPING UP THE INTERNAL
REVENUE SYSTEM?

The astounding fact is now presented to
the American people of a coalition between
the Democrats and few so-called Revenue
Reformers to keep up the internal revenue
system. The Democratic party in Con-
gress have it in their power to put this
edious system in process of speedy extin-
guishment at any moment. The FREQ
Traders, however, seek to benefit foreign
producers at the expense of our domestic
industries. They are trying to perpetuate
an odious system of taxation which hamp-
ers trade and embarrasses enterprise for
the sole benefit of the importers and for
eign manufacturers. They are for main
tanning free trade with foreign nations and
restricting it among ourselves. They are
for maintaining the army Of spies and in
formers essential to the system, and which
do more than everything else to demoralize
the civil service and to disgust the
people. They cry out against the
import duties, that raise the wages of
American labor and cling to a cumbrous,
expensive and grievously unjust lnhlcton,
which is at war with the genius Of our peo-
pie, and only submitted to as patriotic
sacrifice in great war. Let the people
understand that the Democratic party in
Congress, with few exceptions, oppose
this reform Of the revenue system. The
New York importers and Free Traders
control that party to-day as of old. 1t is
the sworn enemy of American Labor,
Progress and Enterprise. We rant to see
the national revenue system narrowed doacn
at once, as Gen. Grant recommended IN his
message, " TO 'ohishey, malt liquors and to-
bacco." We hope to see its total abolition
at an early day. Let the people rise in
their might and demand it, without distinc-
ton of party, of their representatives.

the language of the testimony, as given In

"Dr Rockwell said Mr.. Shaw was COM
mtted TO the asylum upon physicians
certificate that he was afflicted with par

had been very quiet, like many other of
their patients in the asylum, and he had
seen no insane act committed by him."
We have no intimate knowledge of the
workings of the institution under chal GO
of DR.. Rockwell, and as little personal in
tercst in its welfare as any one; but we
venture TO suggest that II would be wiser
in public journals to refrain from oppro-
prous comment on the strength of a mere

but that the general conduct of the institu-

not believe. A long and thorough legis-
lative examination, years ago, occasioned
by similar charges, resulted in complete
vindication of the institution, which was
then under the same management as at
present Still, now that public attention is
awake to the subject, and abuses of seri-
Gus nature are seemingly proven, it is due
equally to the managers of the institution
and TO the public that rigid investigation
| he made.
