30 he adopted . curse that was both un-
patriotic and dishonest. The second Of
these charges 6innat does not take up d
all. and the third he attempts 10 answer BY
statements evidently made BY the authori-
~, II not In the very words, Of Tildsn.
which are deliberately false. To the nnt
charge sinnat devotes most Of his ingenui.
ty and all Of his specific assertions.
The Commsreial Adrerfi.er says Blk
weeks ago to-day tho grave accusation was
made against Tilden that be bad dsfrauded
tho Government In the matter Of his In.
come tar and concealed the crime by per-
Jury. Tho Democratic organs made light
Of the charge and Tilden closed his lips
and refused 70 speak on the subject, but
the people took II up, and said everywhere
among themselves that no psrjursr should
be elected President. When tlls news Of
this determination met the great Rsformsr,
he sent for his former law clerk, before
whom he had been used 70 msks his n.
tidsvits and whose subserviency be had ~
warded by . Judgsship In . Marine Court
In the teeth OF circumstances from the
more respectable portion Of the Bar. To
this man he dictated an answer, and, after
days Of pondering and study. u now lies be-
fore the people transparent tissue Of false
hood. evasion and trickery. AZ pettifog-
gerry Tilden has heretofore been Q success,
but the methods Of tho shyster fail when
Inc appears In the role Of . reformed ring
robber. whose object Ii 70 reform othsrs.
The popular sight IL exceedingly keen In
this presidential year and nothing less
than straightforward explanations will be
received. But look 81 Tilden's reply: In
1862 no returned his income at Stills and
subsequently he allowed the return 70 60
by default, leaving his income to DO esti.
mated by the Government at SIS, 900 .
year during the whole period the tax
WAS levied. Now there 10 not Q business
man In the city who 10 acquainted with
Tilden but knows that his income Was
from six TO twelve times that sum during
those years. reaching sometimes 10 an an
nual income OF . quarter Of . million.
His home expenditures, railroad receipts
and Western mining investments prove
this incontestably. Coming down 70 tenn.
Tilden has . curious way OF ~disposing OF
them. Ho alleges that three-fourths Of
his receipts In 1862 were earned prior 70
that year. Granting that this possibly
might be true. what becomes OF the money
he actually earned In 1892 IL does not
appear in the record Of subsequent years.
or Il certainly never paid any taxes. when
he Acknowledges receiving $4,000 In .
single fee. II IL not possible that = sharp
railroad lawyer. who had half . dozen
wrecks In tow. only earned $7.ils, or even
$i5.O 900. In the hight OF his renown Is
wrecker. Why does not Tilden clean his
skirts at once by m exact statement Of his
receipts and eIpendituresf Clearly. he
dare not attempt IL. II he were 10 go down
on Wall street and say that his income was
less than 500. 900 all the time no was pay
ing q tar by default on SIS, 900 he would
DO hooted out OF the street. One single
sentence shows the whole value Of the con
fdential law clerks reply. He says In re-
gard TO the fec Of 5000, II anything was
received II must have been In settlement
Of an old account and not taxable. Tho
rrst 10 OF q piece with this contemplate
evasion. sinnAt's plea for his client Ia In
effect. "Not guilty with extenuatlng cir
cumstanccs." and Il seals the aged petit.
fogyer's fate. Tilden's frauds and per-
Jury have merited the contempt Of all hon.
est men, and they will show u In his
overwhelming defeat at the polls.
Tho Sam says: The statement which We
publish this morning from Judge Binnatt.
with the letter from Hewitt, completely
explodes the absurd calumny which has
been set on foot . gainst Tilden In refer
ence to his income tax In ths year 1862.
Taking up the different items stated by
the T;s,. amounting In the aggrrgsts 70
Sos, 900. Judge Binnat shows that most OF
them are entirely destitute Of truth, that
Tilden was not employed In that year by
the corporations alleged by the Times. and
had received nothing whatever from them;
that out Of thirteen different items nine
were purely fictitious ; that n item OF
$50, 900 WAS sure only 10 the extent OF
$40. 900 ; and that the other two itsms OF
si0,0 M each were true, but that the money
was mostly earned In years before the In
come tar was imposed. and. accordingly.
was not subject TO taxation /; and. finally.
he reahirms that. after deducting interest
and losses which occurred during that
year, Tilden's whole net income was ST.
iiS, and no more. This disposes OF the
allegation botlrof fraud aud perjury. and
Ii leaves the T;mes In = very unenyiable
position. as having made charges OF such
gravity without any foundation or reason
other than the Imagination aud ingenuity
Of their authors. The foe simis OF Til
denis income returns published by tho
TINE. indicates very clearly . conspiracy
against Tilden on tho part Of certain fed
eral o~nicc-holders, In which they use their
power as agents OF the Government To
propagate false and g~roundless charges
against an eminent citizen, simply be-
cause he had been nominated - . candid
ate for President.
