OxE eUARTER OF 4 uTLuox.

The aggregate Of the salaries bestow-
ed by Hayes in payment for the crime
by which he still benefits is, the New
York .Sua alleges, one quarter of 4
million dollars annually. The recip-
tents are secure of their income as long
as Hayes remains in the White House.
His four years are their four years; he
dares nos cast them off, for they hold
him in their power. One million dol
lars in cash is the price paid by Ruth
erford 3. Hayes for his fraudulent title
to the Presidency; and lie pays it not
out OF his own pocket or the pockets
of his friends, but ous of the Treasury.
The forgers and the peijurers and the
PrOcurers of forgery and false oaths
have been literally rewarded for the
risks they ran. The defraudel people
are taxed to pay for the crime.

STAND ny YOUR COLOEs.

Since the beginning of the special
session of Congress the Republican
journals are attempting to bull-doze the
Democratic majority into receding from
the ground which they assumed in the
last Congress; in answer to which Wash
ington paper says; "Messrs Democrats
of the house of Representatives,, You are
expected by the party which you as,
sumo to represent to stand up as one
man in defense Of fair jury trials and
honest elections. Having stricken
down the test oath provision, so far as
YOU are able, complete the work by
making it impossible for such marshals
as Conant, Of Florida, serving such
judges as''Settle,1to pack juries to pun
ish Democrats fer running on or voting
Democratic tickets. And, above all,
do not allow dollar to be appropriated
unless the infamous Supervisor Law,
which was smuggled into tho Revised
Statutes, is stricken out. Honest and
fair elections are demanded by every
class of people, except rogues and
thieves. If the Senate declines to
unite with YOU, let the responsibility
fall on them. You have the initiative
power, and will be held to strict ac.
countability for your use OF it. Out
the two hundred papers that come to
this office, we do not recall one that
does not unite us in this demand. All
we ask is an honest election, impartial
laws, fair trials by fairly summoned
juries, and a common fate for offenders,
without regard to politics, complexion
or religion. Stand up for that at all
hazards"

Jas. Howard, of CliPper-Herqll, took

upon to produce tho weapons, unrolled
an old map with two baseball bats,
saying, "Here are the weapons. Take
your choice" The Bennett party left
in disgust, the weapons not being reco-
ognized in the code. In the evening the
two parties met again in the city,and af-
ter few remarks they had knock

AZ ENGLISH VIEW OF CHINESE EIHALRT.

Appropriate to the situation in this
country is this from the Pail Mail Ga

to look upon the Chinese from much
the same point Of view that our own

not content now with undertaking the
Europeans in tho labor market, or
showing, as at Sydney, disposition to
oust Euorpean sailors from the vessels

tered on the retail trade Of the place,

feeling against all immigration from
China appears to be growing stronger
every day. The Chinamen undoubted,

THE MONUMENTAL FCaUD.

An uncompromising, hatfooted old
sinner like Zach Chandler, or coarse
and vigorous hard hitter ike Morton,
sometimes begets in his enemies a spe-
cies Of respect; but a man like Hayes,
who sings psalms and palayers, and pre-
tends to something Of sanctity while
engaged in the grossest acts of corrup-
ton, can only inspire feeling of un-
mitigated contempt. His acts have
proven him sneaking hypocrite, and
his opportunities have made him the
monumental fraud of the age.

GIANT As A "soLIDITIEE."

1t is claimed that Grant will solidify
the North. The claim is worth looking
At in the light of history. When Grant
became President, the States Of Nassa-
cliusetts, New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
New York, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and
Michigan had ninety-thrce Republican
and twenty seven Democratic members
in the House. Grant began 20 soIidify,
and pursued the work with snch vigor,
that during the last two years of his
administration there were fifty-eight
Republican and eighty-one Democratic
members, Democratic gain Of eighty
nine in only eight Northern States.

A great many has also been sold

We have sometimes heard objections
to the Percheron horses for some uses
on account of their size, but tho at

stock is short lived, must surely fail

sorxD ADVICE.

An attempt is being made in New
York City to repeat the Shupe swindle
Greenbackers be on your guard against
it. 1t Is an attempt on the part of GER
tain sharp political tricksters to divide

have started cheap paper called the

NeadUiLe PA. J Vindicator.
The indianapolis Sun, the best green
ba, * paper published, was moved by
the foregoing TO -ugges: word of
counsel to readers Of newspapers and
especially to Nationals. It says, Sin
the first place support your local or
county paper regardless Of politics.
You have abundant opportunity to
know the editor and to ascertain to
your entire satisfaction whether he is
deserving or competent. When you
are satisfied that his enterprise is hon
est and deserving of patronage, march
right into his sanctum, plank down
your money for a years subscription
and add a word of cheer to the editor.
Don't give the word of cheer though.
and forget to pay the money. After
that, if you want National paper con-
tanning mole general and political news,
correspondence, editorial opinions, etc,
subscribe for some paper Of recognized
good standings in the party. Take a
paper whose honesty and sagacity in
management and ability and zeal in
presenting the doctrines you like, have
been demonstrated and tried by time
and experience; or if a new enter
prise, one that Is recommended and in
dorsed by those who are in a position
to judge correctly, land in whom you have
confidence. And, after all, remember
one thing: That every such paper as
we have described is worth the money
it costs you. Nobody gives as much
for SO little as the n. wspaper publisher"

Yov CAN'T HORN TnAT ETLLocx OFF.

The Philadelphia Times urges the re-
moval of the dispatch thief, Bullock,
from the position of consul to Cologne.
If Bullock possesses the shrewdness and
forethought with which his friends
credit him, he is more likely to get pro-
motion than degradation. 1t is very
generally believed that while he gazed
in the glowing CRATE in Morton's COM
mittee room, and saw the main bulk of
the Republican ciphers reduced to
smoke and ashes, he experienced a
grateful sense of confidence and con-
scious power in passing his hand over
the obtrusive breast-pocket of his coat,
where carefully selected assortment
of eliminating ciphers had been safely
deposited. That is not the sort Of man
to be bounced by Mr., Hayes.
