THE NATIO NAL BANKS.

From a recent decision by Attorney
General Devens resembling a former
one from the same source, it appears
that the national banks are still gerry
Wandering for reduction of taxes.
Under the statute taxing their cap
ital, the face value of the U. 5. bonds
held by them has been deducted from
it to ascertain their taxable asset
The Attorney General now gives
as his opinion that the banks arc en-
titled to q credit of the amount paid
for them.
If this decision is enforced it is
said that it will cost the treasury two
million dollars, besides involving at
heavy expense a re-examlnation OF
over fifty thousand assessments.
Fortunately the treasurer has con-
cluded not to assume any such res
possibility as to taxes already paid,
previous to SECURING judicial or iegis-
latiye authority but hereafter the
cost of the bonds will be deducted.

FAGG'S FRAUD

Is failing to pan out, as the sore
heads expected. When they nomi-
mated this vindictive and malignant
Republican, under the rules of the
Brick Fomeroy organization, they
made sure that Fagg would carry the
Republican vote of the district, in adj
dition to the crazy crew who believe
in absolute money. But we learn
from St. Charles and Warren that
these counties, which give about two
thirds of the Republican vote of the
district, have determined to put Tenn
pie f. Robinson, of Paris, on the
track, and will give their vote for a
Republican candidate and not for
such a fraud as Fagg has proven him.
self to be. Would it not be well for
Fagg to quit playing jumping-jack
and toy, and be an honest man?

HON. J. A.

The Columbia Sentinel, who wanted
G.. w. Samuel to be state sena-
tor, remarks as follows about Hook
adayT
IL looks like an %ungenerous use Of
numerical strength to fol- &C an OBJ
jcctionable candidate upon a sister
county, and that, too, in the face of
her unanimous and continued pro-
test. To put the matter plainly it is
about like this A big, stout fell
low from Boone and a big, stout fell
low from Audrain, meet a Callawe-
gian down at Mexico and, while one
holds his mouth open, the other
Grams down his throat an immense
dish of crow, and very tough, bad
crow, at that. Such is modern civil
ization, and such the political justice
of the nineteenth century.
If Galloway is sick and disorgan-
lied, and so out of tune that she
wont take her Cruel, it is no more
than right to throw her down and
poke the dose into her, and then give
her a thrashing for not doing what
was for her good, with a better grace.

FAGG FOUND OUT.
GIVE HIN HIS Duh or TuEspAY-A Two
FACED WILLIAM.

In the discussion at New London,
between the opposing candidates fog
congress, on last Tuesday, Judge
Buckner charged Judge Fagg with
being the Republicans candidate in
disguise. Notwithstanding he had ac-
cepted the nomination of the abso-
lutte money party. Judge b. stated
several facts in proof of this charge,
one of which was that he had been
crcdibly informed that after F'ag%
had accepted the nomination Of the
Grecnbackcrs, he Wroic to a RrpUb-
lican friend at Warrcnton, CIV. l..
Morsc}) stating in substance, that
he was is good a Republican a, ever.
and that except on the final Cial
question lie would act with that par
ty if elected to congress. 1t will be
rccollCctcd by those who were pres
eHt at New London, that Fa"g de-
MED that he had said CO V rIttGu that
he was now a Republican, while he
admitted that he had written "A letter
to Morsey, as charged. Judge Buck
ner, of course, did not press the mat
ter, after tins denial. but in order to
get at the exact facts 10 telcgraphed
TO u friend at Warrenton for the cung
tents Of the letter, and while ut Bow

friend the following dispatch Il am

stances, and it has never been denied

Republican party nor denied my con-
nection with it. i am a Greenbacker
to the extent of making the treasury
note a legal tender for all dues, and
in such quantity NJ TO answer the
demands of trade" 1t will thus be
seen that it is proved that Judge F.
by his written statement has not re-
pudiated the Republican party, and
that, except on the greenback ques-
ton, he intends to act with that par
| ty if elected to cOngrcss-at the same
time he has accepted nomination by
a party which requires that nc should
abjure his connection with both OF
the old parties, and stand upon q
platform which demands that money
shall be made of paper. and that
enough of such so-callcd money shall
be issued to pay the $500, 900 in

W. are pleased to learn that our
old and much esteemed friend B. +.
Dobyna has received the nomination
of tn. Democratic party for the Office
of Collector of Audrain county,
sweeping every township in the eoun-
ty at the primary election. We can
say to our patrons in Audrain that
we have known "Ben," Gas he is ia
millarily called) always and are glad
of an opportunity to say that we know
him to be honest, worthy and capa-
BILE, and if elected will give the peo-
pie of Audrain no to regret
that they extended to him their suf-
frages for said Office. Good for you,

itical stick,-Wellsyille Bazoo.

MASON B. MCDONALD - BRT-
Berry.

1t is certainly matter for congratu-
latlon that but n candidate has so
far publicly proposed TO reward the
voters of Audrain for ballots cast in
his favor. If the people of this
ty need higher stimulant for joy let
it be found in the fact that the gem
tleman that has made this offer, and
whose name stands at the head of this,
will be handsomely defeated.
We hear just now that heavy as
sessments having been made on can
didates. 1t is said civil service re-
form has become unpopular, nay,
worse-that it has been ridiculed and
secuted. Instances are cited where
incompetent greenies have come down
with a cool $4,000 to cur posi-
ton, and this not so much because
the office sought was remunerative,
as because otherwise it was beyond
their reach.
We do not propose at this late day
to preach a homily agains5 the use of
money in elections, but we say that
a system that taxes candidates is in
sconsistent with public safety, and
ought to be discounteranced. II
shocks and disgusts all intelligent
and fonest men.
If Mr.. Cash, for instance, is called
upon to deliver up his. pocket-book OF
his expected earnings, which amounts
to the same thing, before he can be
nominated, it is obvious that his per.
sonal fitness and integrity runs great
risk of being overlooked Doth before
and after he has responded. Dt
those hat consent to be thus raided
we think that the one that submits at,
ter election is the greatest ninny.
If securing either nominations OIL
elections by money consideration
should become a permanent institu'
ton of this country, no poor man, nc
matter how intelligent CIR honest he
may be, need aspire to office. Eth
he must pass around his nat or get {
loan before election, or after being
installed be content with the empty
honor of being public servant. Sucf
q condition of public morality could
only eventuate in placing all office ii
] the hands of the rich. Wire-puller>
in that event would ever be on the
lookout for wealthy men with fancj
for publicity.
Much has been said about substan.
tial citizens taking an active part il
politics with view Of securing proper
officers, but when the campaign shall
be opened and maintained by a elias,
of Well-to-do men that depend en- buy
ing themselves in, the behoyS viii
have a good time. After having oh
tanned nomination by assessments
paid or promised, it will he expected
of such aspirants to make the tour o
the saloons and treat rs well rs din,
at plcnics.
When that day arrives, if a com
munity like ours shall ever submit tC
its introduction, the time for nomina
ton or election, without unworthy
solicitation and consequent humilia,
ton, will be passed.

Such fine ears to be lost would be
cruelty sure enough. You remind
IL very much of an old Italian who
once pointed out to a friend of his a

great musical talents. Said he, Just
look at that mulc-has he not n fine
ear for music? But, you see he can't

Of an old saying-"What does the
