Is THIS PnLITICSf

Mr.. Clarkson N. Potter asked the House OF
Representatives to authorize an inquiry into
certain specific allegations of fraud. His re-
quest was granted; a committee was ap-
pointed and he was placed at the head of 1T.
The inquiry was begun with great energy,
but in a very short time it became apparent
that Mr.. Potter's case had nothing to rest
upon. His witnesses were destroyed by their
own testimony, and the innocence of the two
officials who were accused in the resolution OF
the House was absolutely demonstrated.
Hereupon it might have been expected that
Mr.. Potter would abandon the investigation
and declare the charges not sustained.
Instead of that he called in the most
yindictiye of the renegade Republicans,
turned all the machinery OF the committee
over to him, and said: Here, General Butler
take this apparatus and do what you like
with it General Butler, nothing loath, ac-
cepted the invitation, and has used tho pow
ers and opportunities of the investigating
board to SANDER the party from which
he has recently separated, to assail the
character of politicians with whom he has
duarrelled, and to create discOrd in the Organ-
ization which he is trying to overthrow.
Whatever uncertainty there may have been
about the motives aud ulteriOr purposes of
MI. Potter, there is none whatever about the
designs of General Butler. He at least
is not specially concerned with the trans
actions of Messrs Sherman and NOyes. He
at least does not pretend to believe that Til
den was the fair choice of Louisiana and
Florida. The examination of witnesses, as
conducted by him, is not directed toward the
only inquiry authorized by the Potter resolu-
ton. namely whether there was conspiracy
by means of false counting to take the
vote of Louisiana and Florida away
from the Democratic candidate for the Presi-
dency and give it to the Republican. lie Is
trying to show, by what may be called AN
areumentative examination of Republican poll
ticians, that President Hayes has dealt UNI
fairly-not with the Democrats, by any means
but with his own party. And Mr.. Potter
and the other Democrats sit and listen with
quiet satisfaction.
Is this sort of sharp practice pOlltics-or
what7 UnprofessiODal people who have old
fashioned ideas about honor, frankness, and
similar old-fashioned qualities, call it false
pretence, subterfuge, foul play and we know
not what other unpleasant names they give
if. MIR. Potter has no doubt discovered that
he cannot Join hands with General Butler
without suffering certain Inconvenience. But
perhaps he does not mind such things 80 much
as he used to.

THE soUrH CAROLINA CONTROVERSY.

There may have been more fuss than fire
in the matter of the incarcerated revenue Of
ficers in South Carolina. According to some
reports there Is no reason TO doubt that a
proper order by United States Court Will
be respected by the State authorities. IL not,
the sooner the country knows it the better.
Considering the windy procliyities Of South
ern politicians, it may be unfair 60 presume
that the utterance of single judge of the
blow-hard variety should be accepted as
the deliberate decision Of the State OF
South Carolina Probably the people Of
that State have not entirely forgotten, as yet,
the events which followed the firing OF a shot
at a United States flag on Fort Sumter. The
rest of the country, certainly, would be glad
to have no occasion to remember those events,
on account of any new manifestation of the
spirit which then caused the shedding OF
blood and the destruction of property.
Officials OF the United States must necessa-
rily be protected by the Government of the
United Statess in the discharge of every duty.
We have only to consider what would become
of the Government of Great Britain If n local
officer in Scotland or Ireland or any other part
of the country could arrest a revenue officer
of the Crown for acts done in the endeavor to
discharge his duty, and hold Kim against the
Crown itself Our structure of government is
different, but the necessity of the case Is the
same under either system; the power TO tax
necessarily involves the power to defend all
officials charged with the collection of taxes.
And there can be no defence unless the Cen
eral Government can in every case examine
for itself, by Its own courts of law, and de-
eide whether the official was or was not act
lug within the limits OF his duty. The collec-
ton of any tax can easily be prevented
the lovying OF any tax can be entirely
nullifed and it can even be made
impossible to find reputable and worthy
men who will undertake TO act as Federal
officials, unless the Federal Government, as
necessary incident of the right to tax, exer-
cises the power TO protect its officials to the
uttermost in the performance of their duties,
and to decide for itself in any ease whether
the limits of duty have been exceeded. The
doctrine of the South Carolina Judge is naked
notification. 1t will not be tolerated until a
reaction has proceeded further back than the
time of Jackson.
The unhappy feature in this matter is that
the South Carolina case is not isolated. A
series of performances. in other States and in
Congress, has caused strong belief that there
exists general spirit OF resistance to the rev.
enue laws. The country has heard enough of
"moonshiners.p In at least district at the
South, the appointment of United States Col
hector has been given to former Confederate

Maclxey is confident that the Republicans Will elect
Hoyt Governor unless the Labor Greenback party
is of more consequence than it was 1t the last
election. IL the Legislature Is Republican,, Don
Cameron will be reelected Senator without oppOsi-
ton. Randall will have hard fight this Fall,
because he opposed local appropriations and in
terests for the sake of winning applause IN New
York. Randall is almost destitute of ability of

a good deal of following in PenDsylvanla; he is
very much admired by old hne Republicans he
might yet become Presidential candidate. At
present Grant would get every Pennsyiyana vote

because OF the reaction against Hayes on Grants
own popularity. Mr.. Mackey couldn't tell. Hayes
is unpopular with all Republicans. Galusha A.
Grow has a future. He has affaOle manners, and a
steady party record aud will probably be returned
to Congress from his district next Fall.

KEARNER,S E1STERN CRUSADE.

Mr.. Dennis Kearney, the California Com
munist, made his appearance at Boston on
/ Sunday. Among the people who are called
respectable in these Eastern States it is not
thought altogether decorous to assail the pub
lie ear with political professions and speeches
on the Sabbath day, and either of the old POI
litical parties which should select that day for
a procession and street meeting would surely
suffer in votes. But the genuine Communist
is also genuine lnfidel 1t is his idea, as the
Rev. Mr. Oerter recently observed. to " get
even y in this world if he can, since he
believes in no hereafter. 1t may have
seemed good to the California agltator to
recommend himself at the outset, by this bit
of policy to the extreme Communists who are
as hostile to every form of religion as to every
form of capital. But Mr.. Kearney is the man
who comes from San Francisco to help to make
General Butler Governor OF Massachusetts.
According to report, he has already been for
mally invited to take conspicuous part in
the canvass in that State, and has promised
to do So The association is not unnatural.
Insurrectl0n against all the responsibilities and
deceneies of modern civilization, enlIsting the
preiudices and passions of the lowest classes,
needs rich Butler to foot the bills, as well
as a reckless Kearney to stir up the mob. In
the hatred of newspapers, also, the dema-
eOgue of Massachusetts, and the Communist of
California agree. In his first speech at Bos-
ton, Kearney delivered himself in fashion
well worthy of the Massachusetts, Congress
man, thus: "I have been misrepresented.
1.-THE Associated Press news gatherers, work

]" and depraved press, have distorted my
"sayings in their insane and hellish attempt
ito fasteu on a free people the shaekles
"of a slavery worse than DEATH" Even
Butler could hardly be more vigorously
absurd. Mr.. Kearney, according to his recent
statement, is trying to emancipate himself
from "a slavery worse than DEATH" which
yielded blm gains of 5000 TO $500 per
month as a boss drayman. He will find ON
every hillside and in every valley in the Bay
State neat cottages owned free of debt by
workmen whose "slavery worse than DEATH"
according to the latest report Of their Labor
Bureau enables more than one-half of them
to lay up some part of their wages even in

had been permitted to perform the duties with

the tax on whskey, although they knew that
the reduction would leave the Government
without necessary revenue. Finally, that Ell
fort failing. the Solid South stood to the
end for an amendment prohibiting the
use Of the army as posse c0mltdtt%
and it was well understood In debate
that one chief object was to prevent employ
ment of United States forces TO protect Unlteu
States revenue officers i'll the discharge OF
their duties On the heels of this performance
of the Confederate brigadiers in the House
comes the multiplying decision of late Con-
federate general, now judge of a court in
South Carolina, denying the right OF the
United States to protect its officials In the
performance of their duties. There is quite
too much of method in this madness
The very people who are so anxious
to cripple the revenues of the Govern
ment by multiplying it's tax laws happen
also to be those who are most willing to de-
stroy its credit by reputation of its obliga-
lions. Also they happen to be mainly persons
who were defeated by the Nations credit, in
an endeavor TO destroy the National existence
If reconciliation is not strictly one-sded,
perhaps President Hayes may think fit to call
the attention of Governor Hampton to this
matter. But, whatever Governor Hampton
may think or do about it, the authority of the
United States ought not to be left unnecessa-
rily in doubt a single day.

Ex-Governor Palmer's testimony before the
Potter Committee at it's meeting in this city
yesterday, contains some remarkable admls-
siOns, considering that they come from the
chairman Of the delegation OF Democratic
visitors to New-0rleans. He believed I1lden
elected then and believes so now, and went
further than any of the Republican visiting
statesmen were willing to go in discussing
the result of the election with members OF the
tribunal which was to pass upon the returns
But at the same time, he seems to have
sought information in a fair-mlnded way,
taking especial pans to confer with cOlored
men from all parts of the State, and TO nave
reached more moderate conclusions than his
Democratic colleagues. He .is not willing
to say either that the political murders
in Louisiana were numerous enough to
prevent free election, or that the feeling IN
the State would permit free election, but he
admits that ga Theoretically free election.
