HOW CLINTON LETS OFF HIS
FRIENDS.
An Expose Of How the State is Robbed.

There is little satisfaction in looking owe,
the conduct Ct Clinton and his swarm OF adj
venturous underlings since they have been in
charge Of the finances Of the State. As page
after page of their record is turned, and en-
bezzlenent and thievery blot every line. I,
feeling lower than contempt is experienced
and the indignation of a plundered peopl,
foams for vent.
The action OF this man Clinton in the mat
ter of adjusting the accounts Of defaulting tax
collectors has been more than once referred t.
by this paper, and we return to this nauseating
work again not because we imagine our expos,
of the Auditors conduct will have any effect on
his pachydermatous hide, or that it will secure
TO our State single dollar of her stolen coilec-
tons, but only that our citizens may see how
robbed for some years past.
In the case of one Blanchard, brother o
the election perlurer, tax collector OF III,
parish Of Morehouse it was discovered that
his accounts were short SI3, l59 SO.
His bond was worthless. and never had been
anything else When MI the facts became
known, Clinton, instead of bringing the de-
faulter to justice. quietly tips the wink to the
repentent sinner and settles his little difficult
les by compromise for S6,03l 80. thus in
hcting loss on the State Of over SD. 600
In the case of y. Z. Letting, tax collector
who never filed bond ne made another com
promise, whereby the State l. st So, 600
In the case of }. A. JUDGE, taX-collectol
for the parish of Iberia, Clinton RENTED
S40S6 due; and with one l.. B. Dayries. OF
Pointe Coupee, he settled for half the amount
due. With A. j. Eschivina, collector tor the
parish of Assumption, Clinton had the an
guish Of his heart stayed by receiving SS0si 90
when $58 1877 II was due.
By what authority Clinton released these
men from the legal obligations, by the receipt
On the part of the State Of mere pittance of
the amount due. il would puzzle Lord Coke to
discover.
An Auditor finds that some political friend
has filched his few thousands; he demands a
settlement of his amounts and when the short
comings are known. they embrace over little
package of the spols. and all is harmony.
Never has there been known such a compro-
missing spirit as Clinton's He would compro
mise everything, even his character.
Utterly dsregarding the statutes OF the
State, entirely ignoring the duties OF his office.
he laughs at the public ane gives away over
Sc, 600 Of the money Of the Treasury.

The Maine State election takes place on the
second Monday of September for Governor
members Of Congress, State Legislature. etc
Maine, which originally voted against jackson
for Pre- ident. soon after became Demo-
cratic State, and SO continued, in connection
with New Hampshire. with occasional excep-
lions, until 1854 when the Missouri Compro-
mise was repealed. Since then it has been
invariably Republican by majorities that have
run up into tens of thousands We anticipate
nothing Democratic in the election soon to
come of. Although its ship-building inter
lists have been ruined by the high tariffs OF
the Republican party. il has continued to
stand by that organization. The best that We
can expect is falling off i'll its towering Re-
publican maiorities.
