man deprived of bis natural rest for SIX
days and nights in succession, YEARLY
limping along the track with one leg swol-
len out of ali proportion to the other, and
almost blind with sleeplessness and exhaus-

fighter who stands up against his adversary
to receive punishment without being abe

call of his hackers without finching until
nature breaks down under the struggle,
hardly displays greater pluck and endur-
ance than that exhibited by OLeary
towards the end of his great walking feat
on Saturday evening.
Suffering as OLeary was at the finish
from chill which affected his limbs, he
soon recovered, and yesterday afternoon he
seemed very well, the swelling in his legs
having nearly gone down. His feet were
little blistered, and he was using sand
paper to reduce the thickened skin that
had collected in some places. He expects
to be able. to go out to day for walk.

stone Of Republican government;
vet. we are not estopped from believ-
ing the Presidents intentions were
good, nor from holding up his hands
now in his efforts to punish subvert-
ers of the constitution and general
laws of the country. If the Presidents
course with the South shall prove to
be the Inauguration of firm policy
that will ultimately untrammel the
ballot down there, it will be hailed
as far preferable to the policy of pro-
teeting voters and keeping bulldozers
and kuklux in subsection by the pow
er of the U. S. army, which should be
resorted to only after the firm applica

the Judiciary has failed.

1t appears from the above table that
there is due and uncollected in round
number, $110, 100000. A large portion
of this is on town lots and tracts OF
land along the river in many cases
the property is not now worth the
tax. From the above amount would
have to be deducted a considerable
amount of worthless personal prop
erty tax, erroneous assessments, tax
remitted by county commissioners,
tax on school lands which the legisla-
ture by an act, passed at ths last ses-
sion, wiped out at least the most of it.
But with all these deductions, we
have sufi cient assets to fully pay our
outstanding warrants. Delinquent
tax draws one per cent. per month in

anuum. so the advantage is in favor

Upon opening the Presidents mes
sage, the first thing hunted up and
read was that part bearing upon the
Southern policy. Phe President bad
given the South all it demanded, had
removed every cause of even a pre-
text for complaint, had recognized
Nichols and Hampton as Governors,
when he could not have believed they
had received majoritles over their
competitors, all for the sake of harmO-
ny, reconciliation, and peace between
the races, the parties, and the remov-
al of sectional bitterness existing be-
tween the North and South. He
went as far as any President would or
could go toward tearing down party
lines and inducing the South to con-
. duct itself toward the Government as
law abiding citizens. This was called
the Presidents Southern policy; thus
far the policy had been defined by his
various acts. But the part yet unde-
fined, except as indicated in messages,
the sequel, what shall the end of this
policy be? was what the people were
anxious to know about. They knew
the generosity of the President had
been insulted; that his confidence
had been betrayed; that bis concilia-
tory acts had been taken advantage Of
to perpetrste the most criminal viola
tions of federal laws and 6smnable
outrages on the rights of citizens /;
that people had been murdered for
opiniou's sake, that the rights of the
elective franchise had been denied TO
many, whilst others who were per-
mitted to vote had their ballots stolen
and others substituted, thus prevent
ing a free and fair expression of the
will of the majority at the ballot box.
The anxiety of the Republican reader
is pleasantly relieved in reading the
message. The fear that he would be
blind to the great crime of the South,
and ignore it was happily swept away;
and his renewed promises to punish
the criminals and to protect, as far as
he lawfully can, the rights of citizens
give universal satisfaction. We may
have aot inGorsed the Southern policy
in the beginning, but we may now in
dorse it's consistency if carried out
according to promises made in all his
messages. This policy is the best Que
we have, and every patriot should in
deavor to make the best of it. In the
efforts of the Administration to to car
ry yout the policy, as We see it outlined,
it should have the strong and unwav-
ering support of every good citizen.
All should cease their orimnations of
the President regarding his Southern
policy, and give him their moral sup
port in carrying out his idea and in
tent. to the best and most successful
consummation possible. What good
is there in continuing to harp upon |
what might have been, or upon sup
nosed better policy? 1t is Of no avail
now. We may believe that Packard
was fairly elected Governor.of Louis
lana. and Chamberlain, of South Car
oIina and ever strongly deny the pos
sibiIityof contingency which would
iustify the setting aside the VIII OF a
majority; aud when seasonaoie' ana

It is to be observed thst the princi-
pal appropriation made for the De-
partment of Justice at the last session
contained the following clause: "And
for defraying the expenses which
NAV be incurred in the enforcement
of the act approved February %, 1871,
entitled AN act to amend an act ap-
proved May 80, 1870, entitled An act
TO enforce the rights of citizens of the
United States to vote in the several
States of the Union, and for other
purposes or any acts amemdatory
thereof or supplementary thereto"
1t is the opinion OF the Attorney
General that the expenses of these
proceedings will largely exceed the
amount which was thus provided,
and I rely confidently upon Congress
to make adequate appropriations to
enable the Executive Department to
enforce the laws.-President Mess
age.
Will this Congress assist the Presi-
dent in his good intentions. by inves-
tigating alleged violations Of the eiec-
ton laws, and exposing them or
will Congress hinder the President
by refusing necessary appropriations? :?
Will this Congress wink at those
crimes and throw obstacles in the
way of exposing them because they
were committed in the interest OF the
Democratic party We will see.

Miss Matilda Hurdman, in the
Denver Mirror gives her views of wo-
man suffrage in Wyoming, after spe-
cial investigation and observation by
herself. She fuds that after ten years
trial the system has not been detri-
mental to women, society or any in
terest, but has had an entirely oppO-
site effect. Miss Hurdman was in
Cheyenne on election day, and thus
speaks of the polling places
In the town are two polling places.
At one of these, nicely furnished
room in the Inter Ocean Hotel, the
most of the women vote, and some
gentlemen who have accompanied
their wives and sisters, with others
who, on account of the order, quiet
and neatness that prevails, doubtless
prefer to cast their votes here.
In this room, the floor of which is
covered with Brussels carpet, sat the
Judges and clerks of election-three
ladies and two gentlemen. The
bright intelligent, and pleasant faces
of the ladies, and the dignified and
pleasing manners of the gentlemen,
gave home-like appearance that was
very agreeable, and one could not fail
to ask why objections should be made
to women participating in a matter of
so much Importance as the govern
ment of their country.
Women voters were coming and go
ing during all hours. Many came in
their own carriages, some in carriages
sent by political parties, but many
walked, preferring this, rather than
to place themselves under the appear
ance of being influenced by riding in
carriage provided by any party
though men do not scrUple to ride
when they have the opportunity.
The ladies brought their ballots with
them. They knew before they came
for whom they were going to vote.
Having the tick cts. before hand they
knew exactly whose name to scratch
and some at least, did not vote the
straight ticket. The ladies do not for
get a mans political record. His NOR
al character has much to do in gaining
or losing their votes.
There was no eleetioneering at the
NOlIDR pldC6 uOJ u "Olu w dS SPphCht
occasionally gentleman in the crowd
that stood on the side walk would bow
to lady acquaintance, but not one
word did we hear during the time we
remained.
The dispatch with which they voted
was marvel.
The average time for lady to walk
from her carriage across the sidewalk,
deposit her ballot and seat herself in
her Garage again, was twenty-eightI
seconds. The longest time taken by
any one lady, while we noticed them,
was forty-five seconds; the shortest,
eighteen seconds.
The verdict of every honest mind as
to the character of the majority of
these women would undoubtedly be,
respectable, good women"
We were told that It was quite rare
for a woman's vote to be challenged
though men were there all. day for
that purpose.
