A SUDDEN CHANGE OF TUNE-The day after
Senator Howe delivered his speech, the entire
Republican delegation from Wisconsin in the
House, with Senator Cameron, of the same State,
called upon the President in body, to assure
him that they had not been consulted by Sena-
tor Howe, and that they did not approve Of his
speech, but regarded it as ill-advised and ont of
place. And while they were there, they hap
pcned to remember that ex-Congressman Cobb,
formerly of Wisconsin, was u candidate for Reg
lister of the Treasury, in place of Mr.. Allison,
deceased. They could vouch for his ability and
integrity, and took the liberty of suggesting his
appointment. The Presidential hypOcrite en-
tered very cordially into their views, and gave
them to understand that Cobb would be ap-
pointed. But when they got back to the Capitol,
they were bumfoozed to learn that the name of
Schofeld, of Pennsylvania, had already been
sent into the Senate for the same appointment,
and that it had been made the day before their
visit. Then they went to cursing Hayes. They
should have cursed themselves for eating dirt.
We have not heard that they have called in
body upon Senator Howe, to apologize for the
insult that they put upon him, and to commend
him for telling the truth.

WESTWARD, Hottie tide of emigration now
starting Westward, is astonishing. We could
easily ill whole columns with notes taken from
our Western exchanges, of the daily transit and
arrival of trains loaded with emgrants and their
household goods. Thousands OF farmers and
laboring men are leaving Pennsylvania and the
Eastern States, and settling in Kansas, Nebraska,
Iowa, Colorado, Texas, and the other Western
States. One statistican, we'll informed as to the
movement, estimates that during 1873, Nebraska
will gain so 600, Kansas IS O00 and Texas 200 coo

II A caucus of Republican Senators was
held at Washington, few days ago, to determ-
inc what course to pursue toward the President.
Some were in favor of appointing committee
to freely consult with him; but those who had
been on former committee would not hear to
it, as they were not willing to be treated with
contempt q second time. Even some of those
who have hitherto sustained the President, con-
fessed that 1t appeared useless to trife with him
longer, and thought that the only hope for the
Republican party was for the Republican mem-
bers of Congress to repudiate Hayes, and strike
out boldly for the integrity of the party.

Troy needs another butcher shop badly. II sup

Specimen "Reform.v

The Democracy have been telling the people
how they meant to reform things, when they got
into power. They were going to stop Republican
rsscality and corruption, anu cut down expenses
They have made good beginning. They are
cutting down expenses for the purpose of de-
stroying the army and navy that conquered the
rebellion, and have commenced pliing IN rebel
claims that will amount to more than the ma
tional debt This will be delayed only until
they have majority in both branches of Con-
gress.
Their "Reform," too, is cropping out. They
find it necessary to expel Door keeper of the
House every Winter, for rascality, and have be-
come so disgusted that they are talking Of abol-
isbing the Office of Door keeper. In Ohio, they
elected Democratic Governor and Legislature.
The Governor is a wholesale grocer of Cincin-
matt, and he appointed Warden of the Peni-
tentiary man whose son is the head clerk in
his grocery house, with the nice little arrange
ment that all the grocery bills Of the peniten-
tiary were to be purchased of the frn of Bishop
& Co. The fact became SO patent that the Leg
islature was compelled to put prohibition upon
the little job. In the same Legislature, one
OCobnor was made Chairman of the Military
Committee. The crimes of desertion, bounty
jumping, and perjury have been fastened upon
him, and it has been fourd necessary to deprive
him of his Craftsmanship.
And now comes superannuated old Democrat
ic seed named Jerry Black, who has been bawl-
ing fraud and corruption at the Republican
party for years. Within the past year, he pub
lished long article in a magazine, relative to
the Republican fraud in defeating Tilden for the
Presidency. The revelation now comes, that
while he was an attorney in the celebrated Nc
Garrahan claim, he procured false affidavit to
be made, in order to secure the allowance of the
claim, for which he received an enormous fee.
For beginning, the Democracy are doing re-
markakly well, and are living up to the "time
honored traditions of the party"

~ The municipal elections throughout the
country, on Tuesday, resulted in mixed success
es of Republicans and Democrats. In very few
places did either party make a clean sweep.
The new National party did not develop much
strength, except in two or three cities.
In St. Joseph, Kansas City, and Atchson, the
result was in favor of portions of both the Re-
publican and Democratic tickets.

~ The Democrats in Congress have turned
out another Republican Congressman, and seat
ed his Democratic opponent. This time, il is
from Massachusetts,. 1t is singular, that out of all
the contests before Congress, the Republicans
were always the rascals. 1t was the Republi-
cans who did all the swindling. Where Democ-
racy has the might, there is no chance for the
right. Yet, when the Republicans are in power,
Democrats come whining to them for a division
of patronage; and there can always be found
timber backed Republicans to favor their claims.

= The organs and apologists of the Presi-
dent condemn Howe's speech, as calculated to
injure the Republican party, and encourage the
Democracy. Better to endorse Hayes, who is
doing so much to strengthen the Republican
party. The only remedy for that loathsome
cancer upon the hody of the Republican party,
is to apply the knife to it, instead of nursing
and pettiug it. The operation may hurt, for
the time being, but it will be apt to cure.

State Tax Commissioner.

The Tax Commissioner bill has PASSED
both branches of the Legislature, and with
the Governors signature viii become n
law, notwithstanding the adverse action of
the House at an earlier stage of the ses-
sion. So much for the persistent efforts
of its friends in the face of adverse cir
cumstauees- The delegates aud the sena :
tor from this county all voted, we believe,
for the measure. We may possibly mis-
understand the character and practical
operation of the law, but, if We do not. We
think it is likely to become one of the most
irritating and unsatisfactory measures ever
entered upon the statute book, and one
which awaits repeal at the very next SEES
sion of the Legislature. Our estimate Of
it is based only upon its general character
as reported It's more Objectionable fea-
lures are said TO have been eliminated,
and it received high encomiums in the
House on its final passage, from Messrs.
Thomas, Blair and Rayner, bat we mis-
trust it, nevertheless, aud if it proves TO
be measure of wisdom we shall be agree
ably disappointed.
