the COST or HAYES ELECTION
ONE Of the Burstens 10 Woujd Impose
Vn TaN-Payers
from the Albany Argus. Oct. "a. !

from the Albany Argus, Oct -.
The election of Hayes by the party of
plumber means the payment of the linz
mense war claims now owned by the
Radical, Washington aud carpet-bag
rings.
The Radical ljd congress passed bills
for the payment of southern claims TO
the amount OF S5,SSl,000.
The Democratic house of the 4lth con.
gress, In spite OF the efforts OF the rings,
rejected these claims, and awarded for
war damages only S74,453.
The Democratic house passed only
claims owned by loyal citizens, and still
held by the original claimants.
The Republican congress passed exag-
gerated and fictitious claims owned by
ring brokers, aud founded upon demands
OF rebels.
Nearly all the southern claims are now
the property Of Radical rings. They are
particularly anxious for Radical success.
because they knew by experience that
the Democrats Will not aid their plumber
ing schemes.
THE SOUTHERN CLAIM AGENTS
ARE THE MOST LIBERAL. CON
TR!BUTORS TO THE REPUBLICAN
FUND.
Mosby. the guerrilla. now the head OF
the Radicals in Virginia. in a recent let

In 1872 Gen. T.. V. Rice. the confidant
of Belknap In the .post-tIadershlp

Radical southern claims ring. lie sent
| circulars to northern-born residents Of
the South, explaining the plot aud urg-
ing the buying up of every plausible
claim. These circulars were received by
many Democratic Union soldiers. among
others by Col. Gere of the Sixth Wiscon-
| sin Infantry. now member of the Ala.
hama legislature for Sumpter county.
The S5.ssl 900 paid through the action
OF the Republican congress in 1873 and
1874, WAS PAID TO THE
RADICAL RING ASSIGNEES. II
the Republicans should triumph ut
this election. the United State:
treasury would be emptied to pay such
claims. The same Radical rings own the
cotton claims and all other projected
swindes on the Federal government.
Remember that the Radicals stole 81 :.
600, 10000 in the whisky frauds alone
and that the hungry carpet-baggers oil
the South, having stolen the Southern
states poor, are now organized for gi

gagged in the conspiracy and correspondet
With the conspirators.
The dispatches between Joyce and Babcocl
touching the appointment of Col Constan
tine Mcguire as Collector Of Internal Revenue,
after the death of Charles w. Ford, were
cited. Col Dyer stated that it would be
proved that, from that time on, the defendant
furnished information to the ring here. The
Department was th warted in all efforts to get
an Investigation that would reveal the frauds,
for the reason that all revenue agents sent
here to examine affairs were either bought
up on their arrival, or advices had been re-
ceived here of their contemplated visits, and
opportunity thus given distillers to straighten
up and show regular work.
Col Dyer claimed that it would be clearly
shown that Babcock not only had full knowl-
edge of the existence of the frauds which
were carried on, but that he aided the con-
spirators in their work. and received money
directly from Joyce, who mailed it to him.
Babcock and Avery were the two men at
Washington who kept the ring posted. Even
after the Indictment of Gen. Macdonald,
Babcock, it would be proved, was in secret
with him. The evidence,
Col Dyer said, would in measure be circum-
stantia', but there would not be a link missing
ID the chain.
