THE REPUBLICAN PERSECUTION OF
MIR. TILDEN.
COuriar.Iaurnal

One OF the most contemplate features OF
the Republican persecution Of Samuel j.
Tilden is that suit by the government to
collect an alleged income tax due. In 1876,
during the heat of the campaign, Mr.. Til
den was singled out Of over ten thousand
Workers who, years before let the Revenue
Assessor compute their income tax from
their books and then paid the amount de-
signated. The tax was paid in this very
way by hundreds Of thousands of taxpay-
ers through the country, and the method
was adjudged legitimate.
The suit was brought to recover an
amount Of income alleged to be withheld
by Tilden. For three years the case has
been in the hands of the District Attorney,
who refuses to allow it to 80 to trial, because
he is perfectly aware that Tilden will be
cleared ofthe charge, which was only pub
licly made to prejudice voters against Mr..
Tilden. Under Hayes the suit has been
kept dangling, and that incarnate fraud
has taken special pleasure in keeping it as
campaign material against the man whom
he cheated, The Government dared push
the suit, and have thereby heaped damation
on themselves.
The other piece Of political persecution
OF MIR. Tilden was the suit against him in
which he was charged by some political
scoundrels with suppressing evidence of
the amount of his income, through his
attorney, by secreting certain books. Of
Michigan mining company in which he was
interested. That trial has come off, and
Mr.. Healy, Mr.. Tildcn's attorney, who was
the defendant in the case, was acquitted Of
all wrong intent, the judge ruling that
there was no moral turpitude in the case.
Both suits are based on partisan malignancy
and detestable dishonesty of the Republi-
can leaders, who do not dare fight their op-
ponents in an open and honest manner.
When the Income-tax suit was first
brought against Mr.. Tilden the New York
Tribune admitted that Wendell Phillips,
Gov. Rice of Massachusetts and large num-
Der of Republican statesmen left assessors
to fix their tax as Mr.. Tilden did, but the
Tribune stated that these gentlemen were
not candidates for the presidency Rice,
Phillips and the others have never been dis.
turbed by the hirelings of the department
Of justice, and will not be.
Hayes himself deliberately evaded the
income-tax.
