The Democratic politicians arc industriously
engaged In endeavoring to convince the me-
chanics and laboring men that the present
hard times havo been brought on by Repub-
lican Administration. and clamor for change
II The Republican party is responsible for the
hard times in these United states, who is re-
sponsible for similar depressed condition in
England, Germany, and nearly all other
foreign countries. Docs the Republican
party of this free Government create hard
times and extend its influence over the
monarchical governments also? We would
like our Democratic friends to explain. II the
United States can cOutrol the financial affairs
of foreign countries at will, we may be con-
vinced that the Republican party should be
ousted from power. But as we have no evil
deuce that 1t can dos the depression Of bust
ness and present hard times cannot be at
tributed to any political party, and the argu-
ment of political demagogues who use it to
influence their neighbors and friends to make
change in the Administration on that ac-
count are doing it with full knowledge til;
they are using deception in the worst form.

Samuel j. Tilden undertook the work OF
reform in the government of the city of New
York, as a private citizen, and broke down
tho Tweed Ring he then undertook the work
of reform in the government of the State OF
new York, us its Governor and broke down
the Canal Ring while reducing the taxation
he is next to undertake the work of reform in
tie government at Washington, and break
dawn Grantisn democratic Paper.
The above is specimen Of the falsehoods
that are being dealt out by the Democratic
press. As but few Of the readers of such pa
pers ever read the opposite sidc they pass
with them for undoubted truths. What are
the facts?
~ The New York Times exposed and
broke down the Tweed ring a few months be-
fore Tilden showed his hands in the prosecu-
ton of Tweed. A large number Of prominent
citizens of New York, organized MS a COM
niittee, were engaged in the prosecution of
this man, and did as effective and honest, if
not as oilicious and prominent, service as he.
Without them, he never would Lave entered
upon the prosecution. Now he and his
friends attempted to steal the glory of break
ing down the ring, when all he did was to
take part with some dozens of others in the
prosecution for the recovery of the stolen
money, after the +" ring " had been hopelessly
crushed by the exposure of the Times.
~ AS to his efforts in breaking down the
canal ring would suppose from the loud
talk about it by his partizans that some Won
derfu' work had been done. This is what he
has done in the canal ring business. Only
three suits have been brought. One OF these
has been dismissed. The third is pending.
No corrupt contract of the ring has been
broken, and no money has been recovered,
while there have been 100000 of expenses
incurred incident to the ring exposures and
prosecutions. Not very big outcome from
such rnucli-salked OF reform AS to the
Production of taxation the cool eflrontery
of claiming that Tilden reduced it in the State
Of New York has but few parallels. The
truth is the Democratic legislatures of that
State borrowed from the Sinking Fund pre-
,ious to the term of Gov. Dix, several mil
been kept unimpaired, and the honor of the
State repaired that the borrowed money be
restored. Under Gov. Dix the taxation was
increased in order to do this, and tue bor-
rowcd money having been thus restored, it
was not necessary to continue the taxation
under Tilden's administration. And now the
friends of Tilden claim that he reduced taxa
ton. Why, the Democratic party with Til
den as one of its leaders, caused the increase.

OF Tilden's letter the Now York Tribune
says " He is plausible and insinuating in
his method and manner, and, even if he wins
no converts to his cause, at least provokes no
enmities by harsh denunciation and coarse
abrss." As to the other it says: "Of Mr..
Hendricks letter it is hardly necessary to say
more than it is all that Governor Tilden's is
not +: a very bitter, narrow, offensive, partisan
document. The two are in marked and de-
cided contrast with each other throughout. -
Nothing could be in worse taste than the
small partisanship and low demagogism with
which Mr.. Hendricks has seen fit to discus,

stayed 30 long in the saloon, Treating
the crowd and talking that the girl be-
came impatient and drove away in the
direction of the city. While at Dick
Meyers a young man named George
Starr made the acquaintance OF FOsdlck
and taking his arm led him across the
pike to SpaetRs saloon where they
stood and talked until the halt past D
O'Clock south-bOund car came along,
when the two men got aboard, Fosdick
remaining on the rear platform and
Starr entering the car.
A short distance above the. Stock
yards the conductor of the car says that
he saw Gustaye Hem, u young carpen-
ter who lives in Fairmount, rise up and
slap Fosdick In the face, for, as was
supposed, an insult given by Fosdick to
Miss Goshorn, who was also on the
car, and with whom HennAnd Starr
wore In conversation at the N'me. The
girl Is Henn's sister-in-law. After be-
ing struck, Fosdick fell from the car. A
few minutes later Starr, Hem and the
girl got of, Starr and the girl going 10
DAVIS house, and Hem into Jake
hium's saloon close by, and then to his
home in FairmOunt.
This is what tn men themselves say.
Starr further says that when he-lett the
girl at the gate he walked back TO Cum
minsyille on the N. & q. track, but the
other two say he went back on the ave-
nue.. On the return trip OF the car, an
hour after the occurrences above men
toned, it struck against an obstruction
lying in front OF tue residence Of DR..
Rowe, which upon examination proved
to be the body of young Fosdick.
TWO gashes In his forehead and fear
ful cut In the abdomen, from which the
bowels protruded, were found by DR..
Rowe, who at once pronounced the
wounds fatal. The patient was at once
taken 10 the Tenth District Station
house, where he was able to give his
name and his fathers address to Lieu
tenant Decker, after which he became
delirious, his cries indicating that he
was In the midst Of an imaginary fight.
AS soon as possible he was placed in
Mr.. D. RobInson's wagon and driven to
the city by Officer Hamel, accompanied
pearance at the Statlon-house.
On reaching the northern part of the
city Fosdick's groans and cries ceased,
and q few minutes afterward he was
seen to sire tch himself at tull length,
and by the time the F0sdlck residence
was reached he was dead.
Nellie Robinson, Hem and Starr have
all been arrested, and will be subjected
to a careful examination. An inquest
will be held tomorrow afternoon.
