lhese TWO lists OF salaries subject to taxa
ton by this committee foot up:
Salaries under the general nst....... 300 900
Grand total 500 $50 600
A tax of two per cent. (the Hubbell levy),
if paid on these lists, ought to yield $751;
600. This statement of the resources of the
committee does not include the really volun-
tary subscriptions by gentlemen all through
the country who, not being ofice-holders, are
not subject to direct levy, but who never
theless give largely 10 the party. 1t is esti-
mated further that for unclassifed services.
not included under any of the above heads,
the government pays out 100000 more.
Including the tax of two per cent. on this
service increases the total levy to $685., 900.
The Chicsgo Tribune, another, and very
fierce Republican paper, as indignant in
its reprobation of Hubbell and his robbery
of the employees of the government as the
Albany Evening Journal, asks "for what is
this $6S7,00 collectedw and it answers
that
The theory of expending it in documents is
too totally absurd. The sum exceeds 5000 in each
congressional district In one-half the congress

Democratic is SO decided that any expenditure OF

great bulk of the money, however raised is
expended TO keep up gangs of professional
appropriations OF other peoples money Il is

accomplishes any result other than to furnish

this committee shall send the money. The fact
is. it would have been far more profitable 10 the
Republican party had Jay Hubben's Committee
never met, and, further, had IL diSbanded long
ago never 10 meet again.
The Jay Hubbell committee has not adj
journed, bat Hubbell himself has been re-
tired. Those who know him best have
unanimously refused to allow him to mis-
represent them, as he evidently has in all
this business of levying an enforced tax after
the manner of the Bsshi-Bazouks and the
irresponsible pashas of Eastern powers. Now
the self-respecting people of Ohio should re-
tire Keller at the ballot-box, and the people
OF New Jersey should refuse to indorse Robe
son by reelection, a man whose connection
with the navy department has made him as
infamous in the estimation of thinking men
as any of the Star-route thieves. This would
be great triumph. We trust it is reserved
for Democratic votes, and is 10 be counted

plasters, etc. You take a corset and

i'll the cotton batting from the ritling
of the barrel of the pistol, and stops
before it goes through. a liver pad is
as good as boiler iron to protect the
form, so you see there is no place to
shoot female burglar except in the
head and legs. No gentleman would
want to shoot Il beautiful woman in
the face, and with long dress on he
might rs well shut his eyes and shoot
at hop yard, and expect to hit pole
as to expect to hit leg. So it shows
plainly that IA female burglar would be
perfectly safe from pistol shot. Then
again, the natural gallantry of man
would prevent his making much of II
fuss if he found female burglar in the
house. If the average man, and most
men are average men, should wake up
in the night and see Il woman burglar
feeling i'll his pants and ritling the
pockets or rummaging in the drawer of
the bureau, he would lie still and not
wake up his wife. Were it male
burglar, he would jump up, regardless
of his nocturnal costume, and tell him
to get out of there, but he would hest
tate to get up before female burglar,
and ask her to make herself scarce on
the ground that she was too plenty.
He would not feel like accosting the
female burglar without an introduc
ton. If he spoke to her familiarly she
would be justified in being indignant,
and saying, "Sir, | do not remember
that we have ever met before" and
very likely would turn her back upon
him and say she was insulted. 1t
places a man of gallantry in very
embarrassing situation to have fe
male burglar rob his house, because he
would be no gentleman if he did not
offer to see her safe home. No true
gentleman would like to see a female
burglar go home alone ut three or four
o'clock in the morning, and, while he
might feel the loss of his property, it
would be courtesy for him to offer to
see her home and help her carry her
swag. Take it all around, if the wom-
