idea that the journal, with its standing

THAT deficiency" AGAIN.

We find the following in Grcenbacko-
Democratic exchange:
"a deficiency of over $500, 200 in admin
istration of the State affairs for the year
ending December 81, 1873. See State
Treasurer Banks Annual Report. MIR.
Banks was not Greenbacker.
We take Mr. Bankss report and find
the following:
"The estimated receipts for 1879 are ST.
l25, 3l9, and II the expenditures aggregate
about the same as in 1873, there will be q
deficiency Of about $4,000 to he provided
for in addition TO the temporary loan Of
of $4,000 contracted this year.
Now that does not say there IS any de.
fciency of "over $500, 900 nor of $780,
600; but if the expenditures Of 1879
equal those of 1878, and the receipts of
1879, equal only the estimate made by
Mr.. Banks, there lciH be deficiency of
$500 .000inlS79 Either the Democratic
and Greenback papers are lying to us, or Mr..
Banks estimated deficiency Of 100000
will not occur. We are told that the last
Legislature saved the State over $500, 900.
These savings, IF they were made, will
not only wipe out the estimated deficiency
of Sl5O,0OO for 1879, but will also can
Gel the temporary loan of sl50,OOO made
in 1879. Either the Legislature did not
make the savings, as we are told, or, ac-
cording to their own figures, they should
come out even at the close of 1879.
If the fusion Legislature have saved
$500, 900, they have assessed tax too
large, for the year 1879, and at its close,
should have surplus of s349,03l.63.
The tax for 1877 was S675,l73.53; in
1878 there was a deficiency of $50, 00O,-
90. due to the small tax of 1877. Then
that sum should be added to the 1877
tax. This shows that the 1877 tax
should have been SS25,l73.53. The
tax for 1873 was SS99,7l2.79, being
S74,j29.26 in excess of the amount that
should have been assessed if the tax of
1877 had been sufficiently large. This
excess comes over into the year ls79,and
to it should be added the $4,000 rail
road tax paid in 1879 This gives the
present administration 1924, 529.26 to
apply toward paying the sl5O,O00 de-
ficiency, as extra funds, passed by the
last administration to this-though the
money is to be collected this year. This
leaves a balance of S2j,470.74 to be
added TO the 1879 tax and that Is all the
actual deficiency which the Republican
administration bequeathed to the fusion
lists, and that was due to the injudicious
3 mill tax of 1877, assessed in the inter-
est of economy. This deficiency should
be added to the tax for current expenses
in 1879, and shows that the - tax
should have been $3.50, 644.27. The
tax assessed is $685., $3.50, or an excess
of S49. O3l .63 above the necessary amount.
If the Legislature saved 100000 to
the State. that sum should be added to the
excess and shows that at the close Of this
wear there should be S3ig, O3l .63 in the
State Treasury. We hope the money will
be there; but, ike the good old deacon,
We have narrowing doubts

STATES HAVE RIGHTS.

and few other blind guides, would have a
Governor without a State. Suppose we
have a State, fit is possible 10 have one

Governor il will probably be in some
country where they have no States. As
quoted by the Age Gen. Ewing correctly
states the true theory when he says the
federal government il supreme in those
powers delegated 10 il, and that all other
powers are reserved 10 the States; over
these the federal government has no au-
thority. He truly SAYS that the pendulum
is again swinging 10 the extreme. SeceS-
sion would lead TO the division Of the
States into many free governments Con
Solidation leads TO the sinking of popular
liberty into u centralized empire. '-Stdte
Democrat
The OXFORD DEMOCRAT believes in
States. and that the States have rights.
But it also believes that States have no
right to throw 10000 fraudulent votes
and thereby elect a Governor by 10000
majority, as was done in New York in
1868. 1t believes that the States have
TO right to elect candidates by stuffing
ballot boxes. as was done in South Caro-
lima, last year 1t believes that States
have no right to allow any party or set of
men TO drive candidates from the field by
force of arms or intimidation, as has been
done in Mississippi during the past week.
1t believes that the States have no right
to allow men to run at large, without a
trial, after they have killed Negroes and
white men to prevent their voting the
Republican ticket. 1t believes the States
have no right to Democratic officers, when
Republicans compose a large majority of
the people of a given State. 1t believes
the States hare a right to suppress all
such illegal actions, and if the State is
unable to enforce the laws, or its officers
refuse to do so, the Nation has right to
interfere. The Nation has the same night
TO protect citizens of this country, when
they are in a sovereign State, that it has
to protect them when they are in foreign
lands. When it comes to the question of
whether the government shall be destroyed
by Capitalization or by fraud, violence,
and anarchy in the States, the OXFORD
DEMOCRAT is for the Nation every time.
But it believes that both of these diem
mas can be avoided, if National Super
vision of elections is permitted, as provid-
ed for by the present law, where a men,
Der from each political party stands, as a
check against fraud, before his opponent.

POLITICAL LETTER.
NORWAY, Aug. :, lN52

VI. Eltor:-
Selling out political principles seems 20
be the order OF the day in this state, from
the Grecnback candidate for Governor
down to the Var Reig.oa paper, and even
10 the prospective chance of representing
this district in the next Legislature. aud
some OF them sell out cheap, but Tor as
much, and in most cases, even more than
thew are worth Some Of these bargains
remind me Of the old preacher, who after
reading the sth and 9th verses Of the +tA
chapter of the Gospel according TO Mat
thcw.-whcre the Devil took the Savior up
into a high mountain and showed him all
the Kingdoms of the world and promised
him if the Saviour would fall down AMI
worship him. the whole should be his. The
Old man said, The Devil did not own
foot of it," II strikes me that some OF Tie
bargains reported in this place might Pc
answered in the same manner. The dlhcr-
ence, however, is that some Of the trades
are completed, and it remains 10 De seen
whether the Greenback party have any bet
ter claim to what they promise than the
Devil did. Let Us hope, however, that iAe
representatives of Neio Religions, ana
would-be representatives TO the Lesi>-a-
ture. will get the reward Of all who sell
out their principles CD.

Down in Penobscot County, the
Democrats made straight nominations, but
now the coalitionists are trying to retire
the regular Democratic nominees and sub
stitute the Greenback ticket The Bour-
bon nominees do not take kindly to this
dodge, and Mr.. White, the candidate for
County Attorney, protests, IN letter to
the Bangor Wing. There are some Dem
ocrats who act from principle, IN politics.
An Oldtown correspondent of the
Bangor Wing, writes that Joseph l..
Smith, who declares, in his letter of
acceptance, for equal taxation, only pays
Slll.75 tax, while the rate of taxation
in his town is % per cent. He Is estl-
mated to be worth 100000, by those
who have good opportunities for intorma-
ton, and who have heard him say he
could lend $4,000 without borrowing a
dollar.
An error in regard to the amount Of
deficiency in the State Treasury for 1878
is easily made by referring to Mr.. Banks S
report, page 3S. He there states that
1.-THE receipts from all sources less tenn
porary loan of Sl5O,000), have been
81 $50, 900" In this statement he omits
the cash on hand Jan. |, and simply
means to say that the cash collected was
that sum. 1t really indicates no defcien-
CIV, as will be seen by referring to the
amount of taxes still uncollected.
fremont Temple of Boston was de-
stroyed by fire, Thursday night, and the
Parker House was saved only by the
greatest exertion. BY this Boston loses
great chance to take the lives of hun

Temple was a great IMAM trap from
which it would be impossible for the audi

during services. If it is rebuilt on the
old plan. Boston is not doing its duty by
the people. The only regret Is that the
splendid organ was destroyed by this fire.
