"Give us Seymour or we are defeated'' Is
the frank confession of the Democrats of

the Hamburg massacre, thinks this campaign
should be conducted on the one issue of re-
form.
Col. Hoyt, Chairman of the Republican
State Copmittee Of Pennsylvania, took I'D

canvass in that state will open with great

In order to escape the tax upon it, argues
degree of meanness that no one but Sam
Tilden could be capable Of
The Cleveland Leader states and reiterates
that the Ohio Democratic executive COM
mittee, at recent meeting at Put-in-Bay,
agreed upon plans FOR the disbursement of a
corruption fund of $3.50, 900 gathered at New
York and Philadelphia, to help carry the
Ohio election for Tilden.
Hon. James P. Root, of Chicago, says of
Sammy Tilden: 81 tell you, when man gets
to be sixty-four years old before it occurs to
him that there is anything to reform 10 his
country, after he has been the bosom friend
OF Boss Tweed, he is fraud. He begins his
reform business pretty late in life.'
The philodalpb;a P,,JIots, ,oott..
thus: ''In his speech in defence of Tiden,
Mr.. Hewitt says: Il defy these gentlemen to
lay their hands on dishonest dollar in the
possession OF Samuel j. Tiden.' Such a
defiance proves nothing. We defy Mr.. Hew-
lit to lay hands upon a dishonest dollar in
the possession of VIM. M. Tweed"
Lowell Courier-Mr. Tilden generally ex-
cites some enthusiasm when he recites how
much money has been drawn from the peo-
pie in taxes. But when they recall the fact
that the Democrats raised the war that
caused the taxes, and that such scamps as
Tilden cheated the government out of their
own taxes and shifted the burden to honest
Taxpayers, they soon cool off,
Ex-Gov. English has positively declined to
accept the Democratic nomination for Gov
ernor of Connecticut, and Gov. Ingersoll is
said to adhere to his decision not to run
again. The only candidate now promin ent-
ly named for the position is Col. B. F. Loo
mis- of New London, who is very likely 10
carry off the prize. He will not be nearly
so strong candidate as either Mr.. English
or Mr.. Ingersoll, as his principal quallfca-
tion for the position is we'll develope1 lot OF
"claims" on the party.

sPaid by proprietors and bonded warehouses.
The above shows that there are SO officers
and employees in the Portland Custom House
with an aggregate compensation of $40, 1888 so.
OF this number one, the surveyor, is paid
from the fees of his office. If these reach
$4,000 and more he receives that salary. If
they do not, his salary is whatever the fees
amount to. These fees of course are paid by
those who have business with the office.
There are six officers who are paid exclusive
ly by proprietors of bonded warehouses.
They receive an aggregate compensation of
$s,572.5O. Deduct the pay of the officials
paid by fees, etc. from the $40, 1880. as
shown by the above and it appears that
$4,000 is the gross amount of salaries the
present year paid by and out of the national!
treasury. 1t may be added here that in
1862 there was but one storekeeper and bis
fees were so inconsiderable that his salary
was paid by the Government.

show the great increase Of business sincs

WITH whatever loathing loyal men must
look upon the crime of perjury as an adjunct
of treason, traitors will be uugrateful if they
do not vote for Samuel j. Tilden. But they
are not ungrateful. Every rebel state will
vote for him to show their appreciation of
the man who boldly advocated secession be-
fore the war, who was in open and active
sympathy with them during the war, who
who never uttered word or voluntarily con-
tributed dollar to aid the Government
while the war was in progress, and who pre-
ferred perjury to patriotism when every true
man aud woman in the land was praying and
paying that treason might be overthrown
