During the past eighteen months Go.
vernon Tilden originated and carried
through measures that have reduced
our canal expenditures Mt the rate OF
two and half millions of dollars an
nualy. Besides this he has initiated
line of policy that has exposed and
broken up chronic system of frauds
whereby the state, for years past, has
been robbed Of large amounts of its
canal revenues. He has set at defiance
and driven out of the field horde of
contractors who had been long accus'
toned to do work on the canals That
was either not needed at all or was per-
formed at rates ruinous 20 the state.
He has carefully watched the proceeds
ings OF the Legislature, and his warn
ing voice has frightened away many
jobbers, while by his vote he has in
TWO sessionsreduced the appropriations
for general purposes about u million of
dollars. And during his term of
office, and mainly because of his mca
sures, the state taxes have been cut
down nearly one-half.

Nothing can surpass the Won
deriul energy or the public spirit
of the French people. Since the
close Of the German war we have
had many remarkable mauifcstions
Of these qualities, to which must
now be added the pronounced sue
cess Of the new city OF Paris loan
for S24, 100000 for the purpose OF
prosecuting its public works. The
loan, is stated in dispatch to the
London Times, "was quoted at l6
al francs premium per bond,
even before the conditions wero
known, while Of the 100000, 900
marks German loan recently
offered only ono-quartcr has been
taken Frcnchmen, thus more
than ever, "bclievc in themselves"
and, therefore, it matters not weth.
er it is the republic at large or
the city of Paris that is in the
money market, the alarcrity with
which the great body of the people
respond small capitalists as well rs
great, renders it quite unnecessary
to appeal to the financial kings of
other nations.

A Typical Candidate.

The Republicans of Indiana we're quite
consistent in nominating as their candidate
for governor, Godlove s. Orth, lately
minister to Austria, and formerly con-
gresham and lobbyist for the Venezuela
ring. He fully represents the political
morality of the party since it has been
corrupted by its present leaders. He has
never exhibited any remarkable talent
as a legislator or diplomatist, but his
record shows that he appreciates the great
principle of addition, division, and silence,
the rule generally followed by oficehold-
ers under Grants administration.
| In 1868 mixed commission met in Cara
cas-, in accordance with the provisions OF a
treaty made in 1866, to settle international
claims pending between Venezuela and
the United States. A ring was formed,
consisting of Talmage, the American
commissioner: Stilwell of Indiana, the
American minister to Venezuela; w. Z.
Murray, relative of Stilwell, who act
ed as secretary of legation, and others.
The purpose of this combination was to
procure awards for FRAUDULENT claims,
while no American claimant was permit
ted to receive consideration unless he
would agree to pay one-half Of whatever
sum might be awarded him to some person
designated by the ring. Thus the COM
mission was engaged at the same time In
IrobbiDg the Venezuelan government, and
in Matchmaking American citizens who had
legitimate claims against that nation. In
another part of to- days San will be found
letter which gives few examples OF the
manner in which this thieving commission
conducted it's operations
The Venezuelan government paid large
! sums of money under the awards of this
commission, but afterward obtaining evl
: dence of the frauds which had been per
: petrated, declined to make further pay
ments, and demanded new commiissot
: to revise the awards made in Caracas L
. is not known at what time Orth was takel
into the ring, but as chairman of tn
house committee on foreign affairs il
the forty first congress, he reported IL
favor of confirming the awards of tn
commission; and during the winter Q
5 1872 3, after he had been reelected to con
IS gress, he appeared in Washington as tn
attorney and lobby agent of the black
mailers, an act which rendered him liabl
s. to two years imprisonment and fine c
Il $4,000. The blackmail levied and til
!, money stolen by the ring. so tar as the
&c Lave been traced, amounted to certificate
for over 1922, 900, though it is SAID that tn
Legitimate claims against Venezuela wer
not in excess of $4,000. Orth shared
. this plumber, by his own confession, an
having SO shared, endeavored to involy
the country in war with Venezuela in ordt
to enforce the collection of these frauduleI
awards.
This is the man whom the Republican
+ of Indiana are asked to elect as their GO
ernor. as a test OF their fidelity to tt
principles of Grantism and Kemblels
which constitute the real Platform of tn
existing Republican organization. v
don't believe he can be elected.
