THE MINERVA COMMERCIAL.

THE MINERVA COMMERCIAL L,
Under date of Saturday last, had an
alarming article headed, An Old Dodge
-"DemOeracya at Their Old Tricks" We
give a couple of paragraphs:
Gust as we go to press, there has been
handed US, q postal card on the back Of
which is printed a most Infamous slander
of John 7. Perdue, our candidate for State
Senator. These cards came through the
mail to this place, and we presume will be
circulated in like manner all over the Dis
trict. They are to the effect that Mr..
Perdue obtained his nomination by bri-
berry and corruption. That he is becom-
ing rich by an oil we'll; and that he is
utterly devoid of reputation and charac-
ter. While on the other hand it extols
Mr.. Yant as a representative man, and is
signed MANY Republicans" 1t also in
vites those who have any doubts on the
subject of Mr.. Perdue's qualifications for
the Office of Senator, to inquire of those
personally acquainted with him and find
cut.
We have no hesitation IN saying that
we believe the charges were gotten up in
the sanctum of some Democratic editor in
the District, probably McGregor's of Can
ton; and that they were set up in a com
positor's back room in the same establish
ment." -- ylI ID ma.
Were oar neighbor of the Com. familiar
with our job type he would see that the
card in question was none of our print.
The fact is we know now nothing at all o.
the getting up or printing of the card in
question. We doubt not it was got uE
# -E
and circulated by Mr. Vents Republican
friends.

A recent speaker in England, address
ing the working men of Berwick upon
Tweed, said. "The worst uae a man can
make of his earnings is to spend them on
drink. = \ = The revenue laws are
so contrived that every shilling spent on
alcoholic liquors yields Its contribution to
the Exchequer. The fourishing state of
the british revenue for the last few years
has been due to the fact that high wages
have enabled working men to consume an
unusual quantity of excisable liquors"
By this excess of revenue in the worst d.
T~ection, the reduction or repeal Of the
british income tax has become possible,
and those who can best afford taxation
have escaped it, and the poorer classes
and men OF moderate income and immod-
crate appetites have caused the caustlc
saying that the British government floats
on a sea of drink" The same state of
things exists, though lot so great an ex-
tent in this country. The liquor duties
and excise. or "interpal revenue" on the
various articles of drink from a very large
item in the sum total of natural taxation.

rowA AND PENNSYLVANIA,

The elections in Iowa, Indiana and
Pennsylvania yesterday were not of spec
iai interest or importance. In PennsylvS-
MIA, a Judge of the Supreme Court, State
Treasurer and a Legislature were chosen.
The Republican ticket was elected by a
majority of over 10000. against a majority
of $4,000 for Grant one year ago. In
Iowa the fight was between an INORGANIC
ed Anti onepoly party and the Repub-
lean organization, and two things were
manifest: first, that the Republican party
is a monopoly party; second, that a new
party which does not antagonizs the Dem
ocratic party and insist on building on its
ashes, and which does plead the cause OF
the farmer and fight monopoliss, has some
reason to be encouraged in Iowa. The
Republican ticket was elected by a major
ity of over thirty thousand votes, less than
the majority for Grant by fifty per cent
The Indiana election was without political
significance. the Republicans winning by
largely reduced majorities. The indic&-
tons are that the Republican party
doesn't own the country.

BEWARE oE TRICKS.

Do not be deceived by the so-called
independent ticket" for Senator. 1t is a
put-up job to defeat the Republican can
dldate. David Yant was induced, by
scheming men whose lack of principle is
equaled only by their keen political trick
cry, to let himself be used as q cats paw.
1t Is a buy-and- sell affair-a trick o.

LEE, Republican, is reelected county
Auditor by So majority; WILcox, Repub-
lican, is reelected Recorder by 4S7; and
PARKER, Republican, is elected PrOsecut-
ing Attorney by 10. These disaPpoipt-
ments are all that prevent US from hav-
ing made clean sweep in the county.
As usual there was considerable crossfring
and scratching, the result of much person
al effort and this it was that elected
Messrs. Lee and Wilcox especially.
They being up for prediction tool was
worth a good deal. Mr.. Parker got
through by votes obtained in consequence
of the idea on the part of some of onr Ii
quor sellers that he would be much safer
for them than MI. Jones. Such is the
fate Of political war. But what is done
cannot be helped.

The stoppags of the Union Trust Com

In the one case as in the other the crime
was perpetrated from within. The only

managers, the Union Trus. Company was

All this shows the inevitable result Of the

corrupt and rotten clean through and the
system affects all intereets and nearly all

The returns from Pennsylvania show
almost uniform Democratic gains outside
of Philadelphia. The ring have managed
that city so as to swamp anything that
the opposition may do. The Republican
majority is from 10000 to $4,000.
Oregon has been swept by the Democ-
racy. Nesmith has over 1000 majority
for Congress in a State which gave Grant
4,074 majority last November.
The indications from Iowa are that the
Republican majority has been hammered
down by the farmers and Democrats.

The Hon. William Pitt Kellogg of Ill
inois, Brother-in-lAW Casey's usurpine
Governor Of Louisiana. recently made a
show of charity which was calculated to
give people a favorable impression of bis
benevolence. On his way north, whittier
he has come to lay pipe for the recognition
of his spurious Government by Congress,
he sent the following despatch to his pri-
vate secretary in New Orleans:
CHICAGO, H., Sept. 16, 1878.
III. Conquest Clarke, GOgernpr's Private
Secretary:
'Pay for me 1000 for the relief of the
sick at Shreveport Advise with the
President of the Howard Association
Just arrived here. Leave for New York
tonight. Back as soon as possible.
VIM. P. KELLOGG"
This reads very creditably. but its effect
Is spoiled on learning from the New Or
leans Herald that this despatch was
quickly followed by another directing the
Secretary to make out a warrant for the
amount of the donation, and get the mon
ey fir ON the State funds. What makes
the meapness Of this transaction the more
apparent is the fact thst Kellogg had pre-
viossly offered to assist the Towards with
public money, and his offer had been de-
cined, because the gentlemen composing
that charitable association thought he had
no right to do so, 1t is said that there
was a general guffaw in New Orleans oVsr
