Losses by uobs.

The property destroyed belongs to
capital. Ii is the possession Of those
who are able TO own il, OF course. The
immediate loss is theirs; but who must
pay for il ultimately? Every dollar OF
il must come out OF the wages of la
Dor. Directly or indirectly, soon or
late, the laborers Of the country must
pay the cost Of wantonness. The in
nocent will suffer with the guilty, that
cannot be avoided, but all labor will
suffer. The suffering begins in the
rise in price Of all products transport
ed by rail. The merchant will charge
an extra price TO cover the extra risk of
business caused by the riots. The
railway companies, as business begins,
will doubtless advance rates OF freight
aud fare, and discharge help, in order
that by economizing they may recover
the lost capital. The effect OF this
will appear in every article the poor
man buys, into the price OF which any
railway service enters. The municipal
corporations which have to pay dam
ages for losses aud wounds resulting
from their failure TO protect property
and life, will recuperate themselves by
taxes. Those whe have property Will
pay the tax-bills in the first instance,
but they will make themselves good.
charging the amount TO those with
whom they have business dealings. IL
will eventually come out Of wages. IL
always does aud always will. Capital
has every advantage in these adjust
ments. IL can wait, IL can insist, it
can disguise the item; but il will not
remit ii. BY as much loss as IL incur
red in every way on account OF strike,
by so much are the employers OF the
country less able to give employment.
They will not again be ss able as they
we're before the strike until all the cap
ital lost is earned again. The progress
OF the nation towards better times has
been sensibly checked by the criminal
foolshness Of the classes who were
most concerned in advancing il. Il Bos-

Lyman TremaIu.

Lyman Tremain, distinguished law
yer and Republican politician Of New
York, died at the Gilsey House, New
York city. on Sunday last, in his six
teth year. He was born in Greene
county, New York, in 1919. He stud
led law in his native place, and was ad-
mitted TO the bar at an early age, sub
sequently serving as District Attorney,
Judge aud Surrogate of Green county.
He removed to Albany and became q
law partner of Judge Rufus w. Peck
ham. He was before the war promi-
nent Democratic politician, and was
elected by that party Attorney General
Of New York in 1857. When the war
broke out, he declared himself a war
Democrat, in company with Daniel s.
Dickinson, Gen. Dix, and others, and
like them. naturally became a Repub-
hcan. In 1872 he was elected Congress-
men at large from the State over 3. 5.
Cox, by an overwhelming majority, and
served one term. Since then he has
been practicing law in New York, and
was prominent in the prosecution OF
Treed, and the defence Of Stokes,
Fisk's murderer. He was lawyer of
great ability and marked success, and
had few snperiors as = practical speak
er on the stump.

Ever since the war closed tho sight
of U. s. internal revenue officer has
had very much the effect on the people
of the South that a red rag has on a
mad bull. And they don't seem to i'm
prove in spirit as the years roll away.
Commissioner Raum has just made his
report which shows that during the
past year in the south revenue officers
were killed and l3 have been wounded.
There has heen no lamb-like disposi-
ton manifested, but on the contrary
the officers have been treated as II they
were the emissaries OF a foreign aud
hostile nation sent to impose and col
lect tribute. Commissioner Raum says
that il is not only robbers and outlaws
who resist and attack federal officers,
but that those claiming TO be among
the best citizens sometimes take part
in resistance by force, and are con-
stantly extending sympathy. This sup
port has even manifested itself among
Judges in the State courts. The killing
Of revenue offisers or deputy marshsls
excites little attention aud seldom stirs
State officers TO action. The murders
60 free from arrest, and are openly
shielded by State authorities. Ia the
revenue officers, when attacked while
in the discharge of their duty, defend
themselves effectually aud kill any Of
the armed assailauts, whole communi-
ties rise against the officers, and the
entire machiners OF the State govern
ment is employed 10 punish them. To
illustrate this matter the commissioner
cites the killing OF Deputy Marshal
Spriggs in North Carolina by the noted
desperate Redmond. This affair caus-
ed no excitement. but when n man who
was trying Co shoot revenue officers
while In discharge Of their duties was
killed, the whole State Of Sonth Carroll
ma was aroused. The commissioner
recommends that Congress pass a law
making all who participate IN resisting
revenue officers gnilty of murder IN
case the resistance results Ia the killing
II an officer. II Lansing Republican.

A special 10 the Chicago Tribune Of
the 9th says:
Secretary Schurz has written a letter
ia reply TO the letters OF Gems. Sher-
man and Sheridan, which will be given
to the press for publication Monday
Schurz's letter is a severe and caustic
arrangement Of the positions taken by
the army officers as 10 the removal Of
the Agency from Fort Sill. The Indian
Bureau officers say that Gen Sheridan,
even. although be located the post
there, could not know as much about
IL as an Indian agent who had been
constantly in the place for five years,
aud that the removal Of the post was
greatly TO the advantage Of the Indian
service.

Sherman from Gen. Sheridan, the lat

CoNGHATULAToHy Address.
From the RepusIiean state Central
Committee.

At the time Of the Republican State
convention last June. the political situ-
alton in this State was such as To cause
the leading men in the party great anx-
iety aud solicitude
The political outlook was dark and
threatening, aud doubts as 20 the sue
cess Of the party this year were largely
entertained
The necessities of the situation call
ed for an earlier organization for cam
paign work than usual, and il was TAX
en- up and carried forward as rapidly
aud vigorously as possible. and IN such
a manner as not TO unduly alarm and
arouse the opposing parties.
The campaign has closed with tri-
umphant victory for honest money and
Republican principles. Michigan will
be represented in next Congress by an
unbroken Republican delegation. The
Republican State ticket has a plural
ity vote Of over 46. 1000, aud such Dem
ocratic strongholds as Wayne, Saginaw
Marshall, Monroe, Oakland and Liv-
ingstone counties have been stormed
with gratifying success, leaving the
opposition demoralized, dispirited and
in a shattered condition. The Repub-
lican party stands as the pronounced
aud successful defender OF not only the
integrity of the Union and the rights
of humanity, but as the victorious
champion Of the national honor. It has
set its seal of condemnation on the
false financial theories aud any repudi-
alton of national obligations. II has
strengthened public faith and credit,
and fastened an era Of returning pros
perity.
1t deserves the confidence aud COM
mendation OF all patriotic citizens: first,
for having adopted right principles.
aud second, for having successfully
maintained them. In the vigor Of its
youth it crushed armed traitors and
preserved the Union. In its equally
vigorous manhood it has proven its
honesty, its courage and its capacity to
meet aud overcome the forces Of the
opposition, OF whatever name or de-
scription. As in the past, so in the
future, the Republican party expects
TO enlist in behalf of its principles. in
support of free constitutional govern
ment, the earnest and united effort Of
our most intelligent, honest, and patri-
otic citizens.
In behalf Of the committee.
q. w. PARTRIDGE. Secretary.
