MIR. Tilden's FalsehOOds.

Samuel j. Tilden, in his letter of ac-
ceptance, says: "The present depression
in all the business and industries of the
people, which is depriving labor of its
employment and carrying want into so
many homes, has its principal cause in
excessive governmental consumption.
Under the illusions of a specious prosperity,
engendered by the false policies of the
Federal Government, a waste of capital
has been going on ever since the peace of
1865, which could only end in universal
disaster. The Federal tares of the last
eleven years reach the gigantic sum of
81, 800. 900, 0O0."
Taxation in the United States ranges
itself under the three heads of Federal,
State, and municipal. The first is laid in
the form of customs and excise duties.
The figures for the last eleren gears are as
follows:

1t is favorite assertion which the dem
ocratc organs and speakers put forward
as if it were really an argument that the
prevailing hard times and suffering among
the working classes are legitimate conse-
quences of republican maladministration
They base their hopes of the election of
Tilden and Hendricks largely on the as
sumption that the general stagnation of
trade and industry will be attributed to
this cause. OF course the assumption is IA
false one. The industrial troubles of the
country are deeper rooted, and no mere
change in the party control of the Govern
ment Is likely to bring about better con-
dtion of affairs, or even restore conf
dence for time. Changes are not gen.
orally effective in that way. The assump-
ton is one which is wholly insincere on
the part of the democrats, and only the
most ignorant can be deluded by it.-Ne'o

THE PRINCIPAL RESOLUTIONS OF INVESTIGATION
AND WHAT CAME OF THEM--A GREAT CRY
AND LITTLE WOOL.
A careful record of the resolutions of investiga-
ton and inquiry introduced during the session Of
Congress just closed shows that in the Senate
there were six ordering regular investigations and
eighteen calling for information from the execu-
tive departments, and in the house no less than
sixty-six of the former class and ffty-six of the
latter. No account is taken, In this enumeration.
of resolutions, of which several were adopted, or
derng inquiries into subjects already under inves-
tigation. The few Senate Investigations will be
easily recalled to mind; The charges Of fraud
and corruption in the election of Senator Spencer
the Mississippi election; the alleged inaccuracies
and discrepancies in the Treasury accounts; Chi
nese immigration; the charges against the con-
gressiona printers; and the suspected i'm
proper issue Of land patents to the Southern Pa
cifc Railroad of California. The last two resolu-
tions were not adopted, though the congressional
printer has received virtual acquitta in his con-
frmation by the Senate on Monday last. The
Senate resolutions were naturally quite different
in their anmus from those of the House. nearly
all originating on the republican side OF the cham
Der. The only attempt at the Senate end to make
political capital was Davis resolution calling for q
list of defalcations since 1865, and that only came
back to plague its inventor.

Comparative Losses by the Treas
ury Under Democratic and Re-
publican Administrations - An
Exhibit that Republicans may be
Proud of.
In June last letter from the Secretary
of the Treasury was before the Senate,
containing a statement OF balances due to
the United States from public officers and
from other parties no longer in the public
service, which have accrued since January
1880. Senator Anthony of Rhode Island
made some remarks upon the matter at
the time from which we copy the following:
The aggregate statement of the dis
bursements of the Treasury under the list
is paper exceedingly creditable to the
American government. do not mean to
airy particular party, but to the financial
history of the United States. There have
been disburscd since 1851 can hardly
read such big figures-S13, $50, S70,072 %.
of which is marked upon these books,
$22 200 900, being about half million OF
dollars a year, and great part OF this is
nominal, not real.
The losses on the $1,000 of disbursements
were. in the administration of Jackson.
$40 80 Van Buren,. S2l Is; Harrison and
TYLER, $40 81; Polk, So "a; TAYLOR and
Fillmore, 81 81; Pierce. So Sc; Buchanan,
Sc %; Lincoln, 81 Al; johnson AS cents;
Grant, the first four years. 40 cents; the
second four years, 26 cents-showing a
constant decline, which is owing in a
large degree to the improved manner OF
keeping the accounts: and that is due very
largely to the committee on finance and
appropriations, who have introduced legis
laiion here which has compelled much
greater accuracy and responsibility. The
average percentage of losses during this
whole period on the disbursements is s. 80
on the thousand. | do not believe that
the aggregate of any class of corporate or
private business, banking, commercial, or
any other kind, can show so small per-
centage of loss as this, and it is gratifying
that the percentage of loss is continually
decreasing, coming down from S2l 10 in
the administration of Van Buren, to an
average of twenty-three cents on the thou
sand dollars or only about one-sixtieth as
much under the present administration.
This is exclusive of the post office. which
administers its own revenue. In the post
office the loss has gone down from Sl1 Is
on the $1,000 in Jackson's administration.
and 500 10 in Van Bnren's, to 81 50 for
the first term of Grant and 81 OF for the
second; with an average of So 81 for the
whole period.
The following table gives the dishurse-
ments and losses of each administration
since 1884, exclusive OF the post office:

Bright Republican Prospects in
the West,

Col. Robert G. Ingersoll of Illinois, who is now
on his way to Maine to stump the State for Hayes
and Wheeler, in conversation with Tribune re.
porter, at the Gilsey House yesterday, said that
the republican prospects in his State were very
encouraging, and it was likely that this election
would call out larger number of voters than anv
election since 1860. The republican State ticket
was very strong one, and there was hardly any
doubt that Hayes and Wheeler would carry Hi
nois by majority of 10000 or $4,000. The re-
publicans would also doubtless carry Indiana, not
only on account of the position in which Gov.
Hendricks had placed himself in his letter Of &C.
ceptance, but also because the nomination of Gen.
Benjamin Harrison for Governor had put an end
to all the division in the republican ranks. Iowa
and the indications at present were that nearly all
the Western States would roll up large maorities
for Hayes and Wheeler-7ribune.

From the Chicago Tribune.
Tilden's False Figures.

In his letter of acceptance, Mr.. Tilden
undertakes to make the "hard times" and
commercial depression which exist
throughout the world the subject of COM
plant against the republican party. He
charges that the government has eaten up
the substance of the people; that it has
consumed their means, and that distress is
the natural result. He thus states the
case:
"The present depression in all the business and
industries of the people, which is depriving labor
of its employment, and carrying want into many
homes, has its principal cause in excessive gov
ernmental consumption. Under the illusions of
specioas prosperity engendered by the false policies
OF the federal government, waste of capital has
oeen going on ever since the peace of 1860, which
could only end in universal disaster. The federal
taxes of the last eleven years reach the gigantic
sum of Ionr thousand IRE hundred millions. Local
taxation has amounted to two-thrds as much
more The vast aggregate is not less than seven
thousand five hundred millions"
Mr.. Tilden's statement has hardly the
semblance of fact to sustain it; it is false
and deceptive not only in what it asserts,
but in its suggestions and in what it sup
presses. 1t is statement of account
which if made by an individual to repre-
sent the same transactions between him
and another, would be branded as fraudu-
lent and dishonest. Let US look at the
facts. The net ordinary receipts of the
United States for the eleven years ending

Hendricks and the Amendments.

Mr.. Hendricks as a member of the Uni
ted States Senate voted against the Thir-
teenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amend
ments to the Constitution. In the course
of the debate on the Thirteenth, he denied
the power of Congress or of the people to
abolish slavery by constitutional amend
ment. He thus holds that the act was in
valid, and so null and void. The country
scarcely wants TO trust such man as Vice
President and possible President.

There has been show of economy in

man who was too economical to spend

dollars worth of vinegar.
