my duty to veto every bill providing for
the assumption or payment of any such
debts, losses, damages, claims, or for re-
funding of any tax.
The danger to the National Treasury
is not from CLAIMS of persons who aided
the rebellion, but from the claims of per-
sons residing in the Southern States,
or having property in those States, who
were, or pretended TO be, or who, for the
sake of aiding the claims, now pretend
to be, loyal to the Government OF the
Union. Such claims, even OF loyal persons,
where they are from acts caused by the
operations of war, have been disowned
by the public law OF civilized nations,
condemned by adjudications of the Su-
preme Court of the United States, and
only find any status by the force of specific
legislation of Congress. These claims have
become stale, and are often tainted with
fraud. They are nearly always owned
In whole or in part by claim agents, by
speculstors or lobbyists, who have no
equity against tax7payerss orthe public
They should in al cases be scrutinized
with jealous care. The calamitles to in
dividuals which were inflicted by the
late war are for the most part irreparable.
The Government cannot call TO life the
million of our youth who went to un.
timely graves, nor compensate for the
suferings or sorrow of their relatives or
friends. 1t cannot readjust between
the burdens of taxa
ton hitherto borne, or of debts
incurred to sustain the Government
which are yet to be paid. 1t cannot ap-
portion anew among our citizens the
damages or losses incident to military
operations or resulting in every variety
of form from its measures for maintaining
its own existence. 1t has no safe gene
raj rule but to let by-gones be by-gones,
to turn from the dead past to the new
and the better future, and on this basis
assure peace, reconciliation and fraterni-
ty between all sections, classes and races
of our people, to the end that all the
springs of our productive industries may
be quickened and new prosperity created
in which the evils of the past shall be
forgotten. Very respectfully yours,
SAMUEL j. TuDEN.

THE COST Of HAYES ELECTION
Consequences Of EIecting a
Republican Congress.

Fearful Burden to be Imposed
on Every Voter.
The last REPUBLICAN
Congress passed bills for the
payment of Southern claims
to the amount of S., 1881, 900.
These claims were worked
up and owned by a REPUB-
LICAN Southern Claims
Ring, headed by General 3.
V. Rice, the confident of
Belknap in the post-trader-
ship business. Circulars
were sent out by this RE
PU BLICAN Southern
Claims Agency, calling for
the presentation Of such
claims. 1t is estimated that
these claims aggregate over
$4,000, 100000.
Let every voter look at
the figures and answer whe-
Their they want to pay the
cost:
Total Southern claims,
2,5o3,622,3se.
Amount to be paid by the
State of West Virginia,
s3I,oOo,ooo.
Amount for every person
in the State, $62.
Amount for every voter,
$aIO.
About 200 bills contain
ing and providing for such
claims were presented at the
late session of Congress.
Several of them were gene
raj bills to pay for all prop
ertv used or occupied by the
Union army, without refer
ence to the loyalty of the
claimants. These claims
were mostly introduced by
REPUBLICAN members.
They found no favor with the
Democrats, who vigorously
limited awards to 10y AL
citizens whose claims were
in the hands Of the ORlGl-
NAL owners. The total
amount was $74, 453-or
5,806,547 less than was al
lowed by the preceding RE-
PUBLICAN Congress.
The Constitutional amend
ment does not prohibit the
payment of these claims--lt
only prohibits the payment
of the Rebel debt. W 18th
REPUBLICAN success,
there is nothing in the way.
VOTERS OF WEST
VIRGINIA! DO YOU
WANT TO PAY THIS
COST OF THE ELEC-
TION OF HAYES AND
OF CHARLES +. SCOTT
TO CONGRESS?

IDAHO DEBr.-The Governor Ii bis mes
sage took the bull by the horns and ex-
pressed himself plainly yet decidedly on
the causes and origin Of the present debt Of
the Territory, and left bis hearers asking
what we had to show for IT,, There are

burden imposed in early days on Idaho.
OF course they will object to the message,
but 30 come down to the bedrock this coun.
try in early days was robbed, and there is
no other name for it. Sooner or later the
end must come, and unless idaho means
reputation, measures must at once be ia
