''EssENTIAL TO THE PRESERVA-
TIoN OF OUR LIBERTIES"
In 1855 great debate took place in
theSenate of the United States over Jonn
Sherman's amendment to the Army APP
preparation bill of that year. This
amendment provided that no part Of the
army should be used to enforce the en-
actments of the Border Rufilan Legisla-
ture in Kansas until Congress had pass
ed upon their validity, Mr., Fessenden,
then a Senator from Maine, declared
with his usual power, the principle that
should rule in this matter He said;
"Does not the gentleman from Virginia
know we'll, that in the English Parlia-
ment, from the earliest times, not only
have appropriation and revenue bills
gone together, but in cases without num-
ber it has been the habit OF that Parlia-
ment to check the power of the Crown,
by annexing conditions to their appro-
priation of money? Does he not know
that the only mode in which our ances-
tors of Massachusetts checked the power
of Their royal governors was by granting
money only on cOndjtiOn89 The power of
supply and the power of annexing con
ditions to supply have always gone to,
gether in Parliamentary history; and
their joint exercise has never been de-
nounced as cause of revolution, or call
ing for revolution, or tending to produce
revolution in any shape or form what
ever. u is poaOer essential to The preSerOa-
ton of our liberties"
Now, in 1879, the same political party
denounce this thing of attaching condi-
tions, and call it revolution" Undoubt'
edly the principle is correct, and the
peoples Representatives have rightful
power to annex conditions to an appro-
priation bill, 1t is an indispensable bull
wark to liberty.

that blatant demagogue, John A.
Logan, had his say on the Army BILL
"I stand here" he brazenly asserted, ito
warn the men who are tempted to de-
stroy this government, that in tamper-
ing with it they must not 60 too far. 10y
al men have not forgotten the perils they
endured and the sacrifices they made to
save the country and protect free Citi-
zens." Loyal menp This copper-hued
gent on the eve of the rebellion, offered
his services to the Confederate President
to raise troops for the Southern army
indeed pressed them upon that individ.
ual? This is nice man to accuse Dem
oCrats of desire to destroy the govern.
mentW His impudence is marvellous,
for not a man among his listeners but
knew of this episode in John A. Logan's
career. The frothy stuff of such fellow
is equally nauseating to friend and foe.
Mr.. Beck effeCtually let the gas out of
his bag, when he Coolly remarked that
Logan's high-Aown indictments and ar.
raignments" were out Of place and un
necessary, in view of the fact that there
was but the simple proposition under
discussion, whether the people, by their
representatives in Congress have right
peaceably to pass law saying that States
shall conduct their own elections uncon.
troled by military interference, and that
iuries shall be free from test oaths, and
that state affairs shall be managed with
out interference of bayonets; but he
could not understand why these anathe.
mas were pronounced: "H aOaS because
the sceptre uaS departing from Judah."
THAT Is THE KEY TO THE WHOLE
BUSINESS.

whether appropriations are made or
not, the collection of toTe8 aOiH go on"
From what despot does this in
solent declaration emanate2 Is it from
the Gar of all the Russias, addressed to
his serfs2
No; it is from Mr. Hayes, occupying
the Office of President of the United
States.
Squirm, if you will, he says in sub.
stance to the people of the United States,
your noses are to the grindstone, and
shall be held there.
Where does he get the authority to
tell Congress that the collection of taxes
will go onP
Has he power, unauthorized by Con
gress, to collect single dollarP
If anything could serve to admonish
Congress of the necessity of standing by
popular rights, the way in which they
are thus already menaCed by the ExeCu-
tive should be sufficient.
No King on the British throne ever
addressed to the most obsequious Parlia-
ment, language more impudent and ar
rogant than this.
1t is for Congress, and not for the Pres.
ident, to say whether the collection of
taxes shall go on. Mr.. Hayes's threat is
idle and impotent.
But give him the sword he wishes, and
this menace may become significant and
alarming,-M Y, San.

JOHN SHERMAN claimed, in his speech
at Mansfield on Saturday night, that his
resumption sham had worked like a
charm, and that business has revived
wonderfully, and times are really pretty
good. We give the following, from an
exchange, as another view Of the ques-
ton. Mr.. Sherman gave no such facts:
"Chase's lMaine) Chronicle publishes
an interview of Mr.. Vinton, State Sena'
tor, in which that gentleman stated that
the State of Maine is in bad financial
condition; that unless change Of policy
was had, they would be compelled to re.
pudiate. He says "Wiscasset has already
the same as failed. She is trying to set
tie with her creditors, and Bath will soon
follow" A leading citizen of Bangor
tells him that Bangor will finally be
obliged to repudiate unless some relief
can be obtained" There are numbers
of bankrupt cities and towns in the Uni
ted States, North and South. Altoona,
Pennsylvania, is soon to be sold by the
Sheriff at auction. It is bankrupt. There
are cities in New Jersey and other States
in like condition. Hard-pan is striking
cities and towns as well as individuals"

THE SETTLEMENT,


Effected last week between the County
Commissioners and Fessler's bondsmen,
is satisfactory result to all who proper
ly understand and consider the matter,
We have conversed with large num-
Der of citizens of the county during the
past week, and so far, without exception,
they endorse the action of the Commits
sioners, as the best for the county, all
things considered.
The best interest of the county was
the paramount consideration with the
Commissioners, and very properly 3d.
Suppose, for instance they had rejected
settlement, and had prosecuted the suit
and after years of litigation nothing had
been realized, the taxpayers could right
fully have censured them. Suit, IN all
probability, would have resulted in en-
tire loss, with additional expense. The
correspondent of the Cleveland HeraSo
thinks highly ofthe result, and estimates
the loss to the county at about fifteen
thousand dollars.
It will be remembered that the deficit
at first was about lightweight thousanc
dollars, and it has only been by adroi
and able management that the bail anC
the county have come out as well as they
have. It is an exceptional case, Othel
counties in the State, where large defaI
cations have occurred, have not gener
ally got out so well. We mention thi'
circumstance as one worthy of remem
brance, and worthy of remembering t(
the credit of those attending to the in
terests of the county. We have yet tt
hear of similar case as well and sue
cessfully managed.
In this view of the case, we only con
slider the liability of the bondsmen, ant
the pecuniary interest of the county
The circumstances attending the defalca
ton, so far as any criminal culpabili!
may exist, any where, are quite anothe
m ltter, The settlement has only refer
ence to the pecunlary responsibility o
the sureties of George Fessler, as treas
urer of Stark county. Nothing more
