Ii will be observed that in the
oath which X. b. Hayes subscribed,
he swore that he had listed all the
property which by law be was re-
quired TO return as ''owner, or hold
err, or as husband, parent, guardian,
trustee, executor, administrator,
receiver, accounting officer, agent,
attorney Of factor" He held the
amounts we have given from the
will, devised by Birchard, in his pos
session as executor, and made no
return of any portion Of the money
or personal property for taxation.
Wasthis perjury The excuse can
not be made that he owed debts to
this amount which he deducted, for
he could not deduct debts from mon
ey OF credits be held in a fiduciary
capacity. 1t was not his mone..
He simply had possession Of it IS
executor, and was bound by law to
return it for taxation. he did not
do it, but he swore, all the same,
that be had returned all he was re-
quired by law to list. Our report
er searched the records in the Office
of the Auditor, Recorder and Pro-
bate Judge and ascertained that no
return was made by either Cover
nor Hayes or his co-executor. The
fact that Governor Hayes received
into his possession the large amount
of personal property of Sardis
Birchard, consisting of household
goods, valuable paintings, plate,
watches, etc, all OF which by law is
taxable, and did not return it for
taxation at more than one-tenth OF
its value, and did not return it at
all in 1874, either as executor or as
his own property, which undoubt-
edly it was, is too clear to admit Of
an escape from the charge of evad-
ing the payment Of taxes. In at
tempting to explain the failure of
Governor Hayes to return the mon
ey for the payment Of the requests
in the will for taxation, it will no
doubt be claimed that he had not
yet realized the money from the
sale of property. 1t is all to be
paid this year, and if he has not all
the money ready to be paid over,
he undoubtedly has realized some
of it, or he has failed to execute
the will. Two years and haif
have elapsed and no report to the
Probate Judge, as required by law,
has been made by either R. B.
Hayes or his co-executor indicating
the payment of any of the requests,
so that the presumption is that they
are not yet paid.

One Defense Of Hayes.

The Toledo Commercial devotes
two columns in q frantic but abor-
tive attempt to prove that Hayes
did not cheat the town, county and
State Of Ohio, of their lawful
revenues, or commit perjury. The
arguments are that in listing prop
erty for taxation, the owner is on
ly obliged to swear that he has ex-
hibited all his taxable effects TO The
assessor, and that, as it is the lat
ter's duty to ascertain the value OF
the property so exhibited, the own
ers estimate, given in the list, is
not included in the notification
The Chicago Times, better author
ity than the Commercial, inasmuch
as it is free from partisan bias, says
that seven If this flimsy evasion
would save Hayes from prosecution
under the criminal laws, 1t will not
cover the omission Of the piano
and mortgages from the exhibit.
II Mr.. Hayes influence with the
royal assessor was sufficient to con-
vince that official that a $500
watch had so deteorated in quality
In a year that two or three other
watches had TO be thrown IN
10 make the lot worth $500, and
hat $1,000 worth Of carriages
,honld be valued for taxation mt
300, and IL he thus escaped false
wearing himself by persuading n
leighbor to do it for him, he appa-
emily did not even attempt to OBJ
ain similar exemption in the mat
err Of the other property, which
vas neither listed nor exhibited.

An article from the Springfield
Republican, which we shall publish
next week, furnishes an impartial
summary of the present status OF
the case of Governor Tilden versus
his campaign slsnderers- The Re-
publican desires and advocates
Governor Hayes election, but it
intends to treat Mr.. Tilden fairly,
and "don't propose to do any hit
ting under the belt" In this spirit
it examines judicially the several
scandalous charges that have been
made TO do dirty service against
the Democratic candidate. 1t views
them in the light Of facts that have
developed themselves, Mr.. Tilden
having as vet uttered no word Of
Standardization. We ask our read
ers 10 read attentively the Repub-
leans conclusions, and TO show its
article to their Republican friends
II viii be seen that six of the prin-
cipAl aati-Tilden SANDERS have al
ready found their own answer and
sniiio;e and have fallen harmless
TO the ground The seventh is
rapidly going through the same
process The charges that Mr..
Tilien is q drunkard, q sSindler
Of Michigan miners, credit mo-
bile. c3nspirztOr, railroad
Erecker, . rObber of railroad Sc
curities, and an ally of the Tweed
ring, have successfully met COM
plete REPUTATION, and mainly from
the testimony of political opponents.
The sole remaining charge, that
he committed perjury and defraud-
ed the government Of income tax,
stands before the people on the ex-
parte assertions of bitter and IN
scupulous enemies, who pretend |
that they know the whole details |
Of his private business. Who be-
lieves them.

Only one crime more. The Re-
publicans can charge Tilden with
only one crime more. They have
not said he was mixed up in the
headstone swindle. They have not
charged him with robbing the
graves of the National cemeteries.
When they make this charge the
list will be full. 1t is understood
that Tilden will now return Char
lie Ross, having been detected in
wrecking a train of cars.

The Democratic aud Reform
party throughout Michigan, and
especially in the localities remote
from the cities, are organizing and
undemonstratively but thoroughly
as no party in opposition to radical
ism has ever before worked since
the young hickory campaign of
1874; and that radicalism in Mich
igan is trembling in its boots is
shown by the fact that its expo
nents are using without stint the
vilest means known to political con-
troversy, in the vain hope of once
more fooling the people into the
acceptance Of their men and meas
ures.

WeSDReUs JOURNEY OF THE PILGRIM
The panorama OF the Jeurneyings of the Pill
grim will be exhibited at the Theatre this
week, commencing tonight. The manager
claims that 3 it is mechanical, moral, and in
tellectual, and addresses itself to every part
Of mans constitution, acting through his
senses upon his Imagination, through his
Imagination upon his reason and his heart.
ssHe who Hould see fixed upon canvass
the sentiment of religion, or the glorious
conceptions of the poetic fancy OF Bunyan,
should visit the Theatre. The Pilgrim is
teacher OF morality, and Will assist Ia the
education OF our children. Gaze upon it,
the world loses its hold, base cares and bad
passions fit away, and the mind, though
not redeemed from the thraldera Of vice, ts
for O time calmed. No greater amount OF
and moral instruction was
ever crowded into small space than given In
the Pilgrim last evening. The paintings
are all fine, the majority Of them being the
work Of mastery hands. The lecture Is re-.
plete with interest and the music sweet. ao
People win have to go to see for them
