Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1878-05-02

The latest sensation is tho confess
sion of S. Il. McLin, member of the
late board Of canvassers of tho State
of Florida. McLin says that il tho
votes in three counties had been
fairly counted, Tilden would have
carried the State. The confession
was procured by man named Nor
ton. formerly special agent Of the
treasury, who thinks the President
has not treated him just as he ought
to have been treated; and McLin in
order to secure immunity from pros
ecution, and to avenge himself on the
President for not rewarding him,
as he thinks, sufficiently for his sery-
ices, comes forward and claims that
at the time the count was made he
did his duty lawfully and conscien-
tiously, but that some Of the returns
were doubtful, and he thought at the
time that it was his duty to give the
Republicans the benefit Of the doubt,
but now thinks that it should have
been given to Tilden. The state
ment is Of course worthless in law
and every where else as evidence, and
only shows thepure "cussedness" that
exists among all classes in the South.
The Democratic Governors and
Judges Of the South have made it a
part OF the law of the land, in effect,
that il a man will act with the Demo-
cratic party, he shall be free from
punishment for any crime he may
commit. If we could have an inves-
tigation that would bring to justice
the guilty of both parties and give us
a republican form Of government, in
the States lately in rebellion-a gov
eminent under which every man could
live, and have equal rights and priv
leges before the law, the people OF
this and other lands would have
cause to be thankful,

Hard Times..Their Cause and Cure,

Editors Republican The question
in which every one seems interested
Is, What Is the cause OF hard times?"
will try and give some of the causes.
In the first place, 1 will present
some OF the unnecessary expenditures
in the way Of fees and salaries, and
will take Marshall county as a sam
pie. We have twenty-four justices OF
the peace in this county, and the
same number OF Constables, whose
fees amount to some five thousand
dollars per annum, together with wit
ness and jury fees in Justices court,
amounting to at least two thousand
dollars per annum. Next, comes
Clerks, Sheriff's and jury and witness
fees in the Circuit Court, amounting
to eight thousand dollars, more or
less, per annum; and this amount
pays no part OF the original debts,
but still leaves the principal and in
terest to be paid by the debtors, with
at least ten thousand dollars more for
attorneys fees. Then comes the ex-
penditure for tobacco and cigars,
which is not less than twelve thou
sand dollars annually, and still more
probably twelve thousand dollars
paid annually for alcoholic liquors.
The fees and salaries OF our county
officers are too high: they might be
reduced one half, and there would be
plenty Of good and competent men
who would be glad to take the offices.
and transact the business pertaining
thereto just as well as it is now done.
Now, those who pay the costs OF
justices and Circuit courts are class
Of persons who are not prompt in
business, and it makes hard times for
such to pay costs, principal and in
terest, and then to pay for tobacco
and alcoholic drink makes it still
harder,-all of which might be saved
by being prompt in business. and by
abstaining from the use of tobacco
and whisky, which are unnecessary
and do men no good. Then follows
heavy taxes, which we all have to pay
proportionately, beginning with town
ship, city, county and State, all oil
which are too heavy and grievous to
be borne.
We talk Of the taxes of other ma.
tions. Let us look at home and see
what it costs to pay the expenses oil
our government. In 1870. the esti-
mated value Of all farm products, in.
Guiding improvements and additions
to stock, was s2,447, 53S, 65S, one tenth
of which would be $40. 753. S65, which
would not any more than pay the an,
nual expenses Of our government
and IL 1t takes one tenth to pay the
expenses Of government, it will take
another tenth to pay State, county
city and township taxes, and as the
source of all wealth is derived from
the products Of the earth, the burden
falls on the producer. And while an,
nation or people pay such enormou;
taxes, fees and salaries, and will per
sist in indulging in alcoholic bever
ages, it cannot do otherwise than pro
duce hard times, and these evils ma,
only be remedied by proper legisla
ton and by reform In unnecessary ex
penditures. r. s.

Out Of 123 bills introduced in the
House one day last week, thirty sew
en- were for the payment Of Southern
war claims. When it is recollected
that the last test vote showed every
Democrat voting, in favor Of them, it
looks like the treasury might be
swamped If Democracy gets full con-
troll of the government.

the year 1S50-twenty-eight years ago-there
were in the United States only six Roman Ca

French origin-and twenty seven bishops.
There were 1900 priests, 1913 churches, 90 &C.

We understand that the Christian Brothers
will open their Academy and the Parochial
School for boys in the parish of st. John the
Baptist, Monday week, 25th inst. It was their
intention to open much sooner, but Brother
Oliver and several others were taken sick with
the fever and were consequently unable to at
tend to many necessary arrangements in con.
nection with the building and schools. We
have no doubt that the great advantage of
having their children treined by the Broth ers
will be appreciated by parents at its full value,
and will be considered more than sufficient to
counterbalsnce the slight loss Of time that
might be prevented by entering their boys in
other institutions.
